my device is stucked at the splash screen, fastboot flash recovery [file.img] not working, installer not working too
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] rodrimx4:
Try to go into stock recovery and then, make a wipe and factory reset
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Sp_Ark:
You can't flash recovery unfortunately. You can just temporarily boot into it with fastboot boot filename.img and from there do whatever you want. With this recovery and pie you can use it as it is, with twrp you can only adb sideload. If you can't mount storage or in internal storage all folder names are strange, then you have to wipe (factory reset) with the option that you type yes to proceed, of course everything will be deleted.

Hi [MENTION=7426592]Manish4586[/MENTION],

I tried to boot recovery.img from fastboot, but after a short 'AndroidOne' logo and the 'Boot loader is Unlocked' warning, it goes to a black screen (screen off). What am I doing wrong? Please help.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Manish4586:

[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] elzafir:
Yes, I am on Android 9.0 Pie. Phone updated as soon as I turn it on. Is it not possible to install TWRP on Pie right now?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Sp_Ark:
No you can't. I use this recovery to update custom roms after fastboot boot, it works great you can do everything from it, but I don't think it will work the first time you go from stock to a custom rom. You have to use twrp and adb sideload. At least that was the procedure in my case. I couldn't boot this recovery with stock rom (back in December update) and I could only boot twrp. After installed PE then this recovery worked and no need to adb sideload just install zips from recovery menu
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] honey ghumaan01:
yes ofcource i was on pie too

no need to flash recovery just boot to recovery, if you flash then you wont be able to get back to the stock recovery

[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] demonoidmaster:
Not true, any recovery.img file can be flashed as long as you have it, just need to know what you're doing, but tbh he should try twrp to see if it works because iirc there's a working twrp build now that's pie compatible
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Sp_Ark:
It can be flashed but then can not boot it neither recovery nor system. That's why you have to fastboot boot. That's on stock pie and any custom rom after that. If something has changed or the is a way to permanently flash custom recovery please let me know cause I'm ready to sell the phone because of this reason. It's frustrating to have to fastboot all the time from PC even just to update magisk

same problem here. bootloader is unlocked. im on pie december path

blackscreen after fastboot boot twrpfile.img
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Sp_Ark:
Use twrp for stock rom but u have to adb sideload. If you install a custom rom u can then use this recovery to do whatever u want without adb sideload

the solution is to convert mi a2 to 6x, 6x has more custom roms available, in tutorials they extract rom zip and get large number of files, but problem is i am getting a single file even after extraction, once you convert to 6x you can have permanent twrp and single partition ,so no need to do stuff like changing slots and stuff, if you know how to extract rom zip into multiple files please let me know. some of users converted and they are really happy, they can also use miui which is more optimized and customizeable, add me insta [MENTION=3575594]hsg[/MENTION]humaan01

queries about factory reset

i wanted to factory reset, so i booted recovery into slot b, and applied factory reset, i wanted to clean internal storage too so i selected it and cleaned it too, everything went good with no problems, NOW my question is, how did it clean internal storage which is slot b, because recovery was booted in slot b, and it should only be able to clean slot a, i had gapps flashed into slot b and play store is still there after reset, can somebody explain this to me, how recovery managed to clean internal storage of current slot, or it dint clean it, i am saying it is cleaned because there is no folder of old apps like whats app, please reply​
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Phone_Home:
Having trouble installing

I'm on version 10.0.2.0 and Have tried running the installer after doing a factory reset but without any luck. Any time I try to install either of the zips available, It ends up not being able to boot. It seems to corrupt the boot slots instead of patching them. If i try to install PitchBlack-jasmine_sprout-2.9.0-20190213-2028-OFFICIAL.zip I get an error:

failed to flash boot_a image please restore the boot.img

and then gives up.

trying to install twrp-installer-jasmine-3.2.3-0-pbrp.zip (as the directions say) will patch boot_a and boot_b without showing an error, reboots and goes into the "Android One" boot logo but doesn't warn me that my boot loader is unlocked. In this state the phone will accept fastboot commands and I am able to restore the stock boot image to boot_a and boot_b.

No, I didn't have a recovery installed before.

what do?

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] romano19:
I have a V30 + US but currently using rom Canada and display code is H933. So now if I want root and twrp, do I need to rerun the us998 rom? This is my first time using a LG phone. Hope you guidance. tks you
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] XCaliburX:
You will need to convert the firmware of your variant into a US998 before you can download any roms or root. Then you can root your phone. After you go through that process, you can finally download and install roms.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Yes, what [MENTION=9213514]XCaliburX[/MENTION] said. For the North American variants only the US998 firmware has the necessary fastboot flash commands for the Oreo bootloader unlock exploit. You have to convert to US998 (at least temporarily) to bootloader unlock and root.

This does not apply to the European, Middle East, Asian variants. See the links [MENTION=9213514]XCaliburX[/MENTION]'s post.
[Huawei P20 Pro Accessories] digitallysick:
I love my p20 pro, but i dont like the case options. The clear case that comes with it is too slippery. Im looking for something with a clear back or open back and grippy silicone, rubbery sides. So the phone wont slide out of my pocket

Option B, might be something similar to sandstone. Im almost tempted to spray some clear sandstone like material on the clear free case. Just on the sides

Ideas of a case i could use?
[Huawei P20 Pro Accessories] Jamestdd:
I'm using this case.
[Huawei P20 Pro Accessories] jester182:
I just got a case by Nillkin. I can't post the link because of the new post rule, but search for "Nillkin Nature Series for P20 Pro". It's pretty thin and the sides have a grippy texture on the sides. I got it on eBay for about $8 so it's fairly expendable.
[Huawei P20 Pro Accessories] digitallysick:
The official Huawei p20 pro silicone case has a lot of grip but its ugly
[Huawei P20 Pro Accessories] avers:
The official Huawei car case is beautiful and has a proper grip.

[Oppo A37 Questions & Answers] didotb:
Very long story to kinda short explanation below

It all started when I tried to root my A37FW and a few steps were not going according to plan.

OppoTools was not properly unlocking bootloader, TWRP recovery not being properly installed even after bootunlock fix.

After all that, I soft-bricked the device again. I grew tired, so I unpacked the stock rom to re-flash and go back to before I started messing around with it. I unpacked it at the wrong folder so I was going to move it. Unfortunately, the TWRP recover.img was copied along with the unpacked stock rom overwriting the original recover.img. Note that during this time I haven't noticed it yet, not until it was too late, when I looked at the total file size and it was off by 10MB. But I was already flashing it.

Anyway, I stopped it. But was too late couldn't re-flash the correct set of files to be flashed. I checked how I could fix it, and found about the QFIL. My only problem now is, with the stock rom that I downloaded it has all the files it needs, plus some extra options I can pick.

- prog_emmc_firehose_xxxxx.mbn

- rawprogram0_BLANK.xml

- rawprogram0_MSM_xxxxx.xml

- rawprogram2.xml

- patch0.xml

I've tried every rawprogram*.xml combination and here are the error snippets

rawprogram0_BLANK.xml

rawprogram0_MSM_xxxxx AND rawprogram2.xml

How could I fix this? I really need a detailed instruction for this for it's my first time with QFIL (since this' the first and hopefully the last time for this to happen to me)
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] mi2harry:
Hi Everyone,

My android phone details:

Xiaomi Redmi 1S

Custom ROM based on AICP

Android ver. 7.1.2

Possibly I'm on Guest Mode

My Concern

Few days back,

I realized that my Magisk not working

Then, gradually found out

Home button, Recent buttons stopped working

Notifications not popping up

Google Play store throwing user error for my Google Account

I suspect myself on Guest Mode

Settings->Users, not opening any user list

'Developer Options not available for this user' msg appears when I clicked on Settings->Developer Options

What Did I Do So Far:

My phone not booting into TWRP recovery mode when (Power Off+Volume Up) pressed all together as my phone always boots up into system(means to OS) & not into TWRP recovery.

I tried Nova Launcher using 'Activities' trick;

in Setup wizard, I was unable to find out

SetUpWizardTestActivity or SetUpWizardUpgradeActivity options which supposed to flash my phone

There's only one option called "Activating Mobile Service" which no use

What My Phone Can Do:

It can boot into Fastboot mode only by holding VolumeDown+PowerOff 2gether, then I can clearly see Xiaomi bunny logo appears along with Fastboot text appears.

What information Do I Need:

Since Developer Options not accessible on my phone, how can I connect my phone to pc & initiate ADB commands,

Is it possible? Bcz 'Usb debugging'can't be toggle over from Settings -> Developer Options

Can Anybody find out for custom ROM, how can Nova Launcher trick works i need file location for these files

SetUpWizardTestActivity, SetUpWizardUpgradeActivity SetUpWelcome something like this

I learned that on Samsung phones

These files can be easily mapped under SetupWizard
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] metelhammer:
Try flashing MIUI via fastboot mode since you are able to boot into fastboot mode(yes I know USB debugging is off) still give it a try.

MIUI Fastboot ROMs are available on MIUI Forum.

If are able to use play store then try apps which allows to boot into recovery trough app.

There's an app "simple reboot for rooted users" by Fransisco Franco, this app works fine to boot into recovery mode.

Try and see if your device able to boot into recovery mode.

If play store not working then sideload apps from internet.

Or

Try flashing custom recovery again using twrp manager, flashify or other recovery flashing apps or just flash recovery via fastboot method and try booting into recovery mode.

Also make sure to other your choice ROM ready to flash in memory card or in pen drive (using otg cable.)

If I remember correctly nougat ROMs are quite heavy for Redmi 1S because whenever I used them I had lag and heat up when using mobile data.

Other than that they are good, I am currently using MIUI 9 on Redmi 1S since it's not my primary device.
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] Fimcom777:
Developer Options are not available for this user message appears when

I click on Settings->Developer Options

Device: Infinix Hot 5 lite

Android Version: 7.0

My main concern;

To recover deleted messages

What I have done so far;

Option 1.

I tried Nova Launcher using 'Activities' trick;

in Setup wizard, I was unable to find out

SetUpWizardTestActivity or SetUpWizardUpgradeActivity options which supposed to flash my phone

"I only have one "Setup Wizard" with one option under it a: ".activating cellular service". Selecting that doesn't seem to help"

Option 2.

Settings > About Phone > Build number > Tap it 7 times to become developer;

I have tried tapping 5, 7 or even 100 times and "you're now developer" message never shows up

Had similiar issue and didn't manage to start setup wizard via Nova launcher or otherwise. What did work was to delete everything in and below /data/system/users (particularly user 0) while in recovery (twrp) with adb and then reboot: Setup dialogs started and afterwards everything seems to be fine, sparing me a factory reset.
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] Cranedrio:
Something goes wrong with my XZ f8332. I have no idea how but my f8332 can only be recognized as f8331 on Emma when I tried to flash the latest ftf version. I have flashed this phone to 41.3.A.2.99 before and it works fine. But when I wanted to flash it to 41.3.A.2.128 (latest version on xperifirm for Singapore version), the flashtool state it as 'The bundle does not match the connected device'.

Tried flashing the one Emma (customised_NOBA) has for my phone and it works but my phone now is f8331 instead of f8332.

Trying to flash back to singapore version thru flashtool by androxyde and used different version of flashtool (9.18, 9.24, 9.25), where 9.18 says loader.sin not found and the other 2 stuck on device connected in flash mode.

Any help with this?

And I can't post title?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] bengalih:
I have a new Tilt and this weekend I have been messing around with various touch programs. I noticed a clicking sound on the back of my device when I hold it a certain way.

To recreate the issue, turn your phone over and press your finger onto the back right above the speaker and on the same horizontal line with the GPS stud. On my phone it presses in very slightly and makes a clicking sound. All other areas of the phone back seem solid.

Does anyone else with a Tilt/TyTnII have this? Is it a design flaw or is it just my phone?

thanks.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] redbandana:
k im kinda confused at what ur doing. I'll try to help but be more specific. Is the screen opened or closed? What program are you running? I know if i have the speakers all the way up and my fingers are on back of the device i get a scratchy noises but i wouldn't call it clicking.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] bapssystupr3m3:
hmm i tried to follow and i dont seem to be having that problem.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] grizzley:
Yea, mine does it too. Actually, I have 2 tilts. The older one does it, but the newer one does not do it. It's so minor that some people might not even be able to reproduce it, since it is so minor. Very trivial if you ask me.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] bengalih:
Yeah it doesn't appear to be a huge deal, I was just curious... it is almost like the battery cover isn't on properly...but it is.

redbandana...I am not talking about a program clicking, i am talking about the back case....with the tilt closed, push in on the back battery cover just above the speakerphone... it seems to push in ever so lightly and make a little clicking sound.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] gavink:
My Tilt case does not make any clicking noises like you report. Probably a "fit and finish" issue. If the battery cover is on properly, it's not something I'd tend to worry about.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] grizzley:
Correct. It wasn't even worth a new thread, in my opinion. Sorry.

Second you can't flash global version on Chinese phone with locked bootloader. If you want global version you have to keep bootloader unlocked. You can apply OTA on global and it doesn't lock your bootloader.
