[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iStillWaters:
Hi Experts,

I am using a OnePlus One still and its still on Android 6.0.1 (Cyanogen OS 13.1.2-ZNH2KAS3P0-bacon). I am experiencing massive lag and freezing issues with my phone now.

I was wondering if updating to the latest Android via LineageOS 15.1 will help me. If so, how can I get it done without losing my data? I have never ever flashed a ROM before, so this would be my first time.

Can someone point me in the right direction as to what steps I need to take to back up my data, update the OS and then restore the data back?

Thanks,

StillWaters

Hi firstly you will need to download the platform tools from this link https://dl.google.com/android/adt/adt-bundle-windows-x86-20140702.zip and then you will have to download the adb drivers and go into the settings on your phone and then go to the build number and tap on it 7 times until it says you are a developer and then go back to the main menu of the settings and go into developer options and find android debugging and enable it https://developer.android.com/studio/run/win-usb.html and install the adb drivers from that link and give me a message when you have done that

Fist get the phone rooted. This is a simple tool i've used : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HeUYE5gStFA

Then learn how to install custom rom : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fi66wJZrdEg

This post shall be very useful since you're a newbie :https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=70918008&postcount=3333

Just a word of advice, i'd recommend you use nougat since that's nearly without any bugs while oreo is relatively new and some roms have bugs. all the best !
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoisyAndrew:
Also keen to see an answer

If anyone has managed to do this with a linux PC I'd love to know?

I'm having trouble trying to root my OnePlusOne (CM13). From a bunch of googling I understand you need to roll back to CM12 before you can root the phone. But damned if i can get any of that to work.

I can put the phone in fastboot either with the volume/power button reset or with "adb reboot bootloader".

"adb devices" returns the device info if the phone is up. but if it's in fastboot mode, reports no device?

"fastboot oem unlock" give a < waiting for device > that never ends..

"adb reboot bootloader" gives "error: device not found"

Have you done this and have any advice? Google is sick of the sight of me.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kallum7:
Hi you cannot do it on Linux
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TriboDoP:
Hi

The commands are:

adb devices (to look if device is recognised - should show a number)

adb reboot-bootloader (to get into bootlaoder)

sudo fastboot devices (again to check if device isrecognised)

sudo fastboot oem unlock

sudo fastboot reboot

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (for flashing twrp and i renamed before twrp into: revovery.img)

search for details : guide - ubuntu & oneplus one: unlock the bootloader .....

---------- Post added at 07:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:46 AM ----------

And make sure you are on latest official firmware....
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoisyAndrew:
Actually that only works with CM11 and CM12. My phone is CM13.1.

But yes that guide was my starting point.. ..and where I realised this was going to be harder then it should be. It seems that when they commercialised Cyanogen, they set tamper bits in the phone and resetting them is a hassle.

I saw a Stackexchange post where someone explains there's tamper bits in the CM13 release that have to be reset from a series of commands see below.

adb root # restart the adbd daemon with root permissions

adb shell # run remote shell interactively

dd bs=1 count=1 skip=1048080 if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot 2>/dev/null | xxd | cut -c 10- # print the lock bit state (00 - locked, 01 - unlocked)

echo -ne "\x01" | dd bs=1 count=1 seek=1048080 of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot # set the lock bit to unlocked(01)

dd bs=1 count=1 skip=1048084 if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot 2>/dev/null | xxd | cut -c 10- # print the tamper bit state (00 - untampered, 01 - tampered)

echo -ne "\x00" | dd bs=1 count=1 seek=1048084 of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot # set the tamper bit to untampered(00)

But I've tried logging into my phone and running those commands and it just gives me errors on the adb root line..

I also saw someone use adb sideload <file.zip> to downgrade to CM12. But the link to the CM12 image they offered was dead and I cant find an image that does not give errors.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TriboDoP:
Hi

I have 2 devices both were on latest cyanogen OS 13 (firmware 006-241).

I had no problems at all to unlocking bootloader, twrp and root with linux mint using my mentioned commands.

No idea why it should not work for you.

Could you post what exactly commands you used (as you typed in your post adb reboot bootloader instead of adb reboot-bootloader) just to check for mistyping.

Regards
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoisyAndrew:
So here's what I get..

noisy@Penguin-17 ~/Downloads/OnePlusOne $ adb devicesList of devices attached

noisy@Penguin-17 ~/Downloads/OnePlusOne $ adb reboot-bootloader

noisy@Penguin-17 ~/Downloads/OnePlusOne $ sudo fastboot devices

finished. total time: 0.054s

noisy@Penguin-17 ~/Downloads/OnePlusOne $ fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

< waiting for device >

And then it just waits. When i watch this done on youtube. There was a response from the phone at the sudo fastboot oem unlock part. My phone does nothing.. In fact it's still sitting there in the terminal saying waiting and it's been probably 10 minutes now.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TriboDoP:
Looks not bad so far.

Maybe try and check again

adb devices

adb reboot-bootloader

sudo fastboot devices

fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

then reboot again

And are you sure the pc knows the path to find and flash recovery? I have twrp in a folder and start with a right mouse-click on the folder to open in terminal for flashing recovery
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoisyAndrew:
Yeah, I've opened the terminal for the directory the twrp.img (I renamed it because convenience) is in.

when i run the "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img". I just get < waiting for device > and nothing else happens.

I'm pretty sure that what i read about the device having a tamper bit set by Cyanogen when they released their corporate version is the reason now? I saw a post about someone who pulled one of the windows toolkit's source code apart and found the line that cleared the tamper bit then shelled in to the phone some how (which does not seem to work for me) and reset it (which i just realised I've mentioned above). so I may try that path again.

**** those bastards who tried to monetise Cyanogen. I always wondered why the hell Cortana suddenly appeared on my phone after an update some years back..
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TriboDoP:
Hi

As i said before it worked twice perfectly for me on cyanogen 13 so i don't really believe there is something wrong with this in terms of unlocking bootloader etc......

"Waiting for device" makes me think your device is not being recognised by your pc.

So i would just do it again as i mentioned in post #10 to be sure you are in bootloader mode and your device is recognised in this mode.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoisyAndrew:
That would make it about 30 times I've tried it.

Is it CM13 you have or COS13? One is the open source version. The other is the corporate version (which is locked).

If you adb shell you can shell into the pone and check the security and debug bits your self.

adb shell getprop

I notice in the list there is drm.service.enabled [true] which may also be a problem?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TriboDoP:
Hi

Yeah i know doing the same thing over an over again drives us crazy.

Both of my devices were on official stock cyanogen 13

(As we know being on cm would mean we are on custom with unlocked bootloader and twrp already)

But i am not on official stock firmware anymore (one is on oreo and the other already on pie).

But again: being on a custom rom already i had to flash twrp again for some reason i can't remember and i had this "waiting for device" - thing. I did: adb devices- adb reboot bootloader - sudo fastboot devices (my device numbet showed up) - then opened my twrp folder right mouseclick and flashed in terminal with fastboot flash recovery twrp.img - then it worked.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoisyAndrew:
So your phones did not have all the Microsoft stuff tucked in them? Like Cortana and that weird browser that sends you off to Bing all the time? I'd not noticed most of this when the last upgrade came though (except Cortana which I uninstalled). But since I've done about 20 factory re-sets in the last few days I'm surprised how much MS stuff there is..

---------- Post added at 12:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:16 PM ----------

Mehh.. I caved in and installed KingRoot. Even that could not do it..

Evidently the OnePlusOne is in the que to be sorted out..

~ shrugs ~
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TriboDoP:
Hi

Honestly i have no idea about MS stuff because i bought both devices second hand and didn't waste a minute to flash custom nougat roms followed by oreo and pie.

I never use stock devices as i am sick of bloatware.

It's a pity twrp didn't work for you. Still i believe there is just a tiny little thing that has to be done to solve this - so probably getting rid of oneplus one is a great loss.

Anyway best wishes.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoisyAndrew:
So My girlfriend says "Hey can I try installing it from my Macbook"?

"Sure" I say as i head off to bed.

Evidently the Mac flashing app kicked the COS13 door in and I have a working phone now. She popped Oxygen on it as that's what the OnePlus forums were suggesting.

Thanks to those who offered help.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] GaryTG:
Following a recent custom ROM flash, my N5120 had 3 faults:

1. No phone function (No IMEI, No SIM, No Network, No Baseband......nothing)

2. No Bluetooth

3. It rebooted itself after about 20 minutes (unless it was exercised eg running a timer/countdown app)

I tried many, many suggestions from this forum and elsewhere. I tried 3 local phone fixing shops (mostly "No fix, No fee"). All to no avail. I had just about resigned myself to selling it as faulty on EBay. Last night I thought I would have one last try. Clearly the main problem was to do with the EFS. And I had previously taken a FULL backup.

Step 1:

Flash back to an early stock ROM (eg 4.4.2 N5120XXSDQA2 in my case)

Step 2:

Assemble the following (backup) files and transfer them to your tablet....

efs_backup.img [This will be restored into partition mmcblk0p3 .....see below]

radio_backup.img [Ditto partition mmcblk0p13]

radio-cdma_backup.img [Ditto partition mmcblk0p12]

m9kefs1_backup.img [Ditto partition mmcblk0p4]

m9kefs2_backup.img [Ditto partition mmcblk0p5]

m9kefs3_backup.img [Ditto partition mmcblk0p6]

....you may not really need all of these but I had them as a set.

Step 3:

On your tablet, go to Google Play Store and get/install/run "Partitions Backup" by Wanam (Thank you Wanam!!!!).

Step 4:

Using Partitions Backup, click on the box left of EFS (on my system this line was highlighted in yellow).

Press the 3 dots (top right) and select, "Restore a partition" and choose the default method and the correct partition location

After "Success" is indicated, repeat this process for each of the other files making sure you select the correct partition location

Step 5:

Reboot

...and smile :)

This method worked for me. I hope it might help someone else who loses their phone function.

I have copied the files I (or you) might need here:

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] Giowi:
Hello,

I have your problem.

I did, before losting imei,a backup with "Partitions Backup" by Wanam.I tried to restore my imei but the app seems not working.

If I use your file will my imei change?

Thanks if you want to help me
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] GaryTG:
I will try to help if I can.... A few questions spring to mind:

1. Have you flashed an early stock ROM? [Step 1]

2. Were your 6 backup files in the .img format?

3. When you say the app is not working, do you mean not showing "success" after each individual img file is restored or is there something else that indicates "not working"?

4. Are you restoring the correct img file to the correct partition (as listed above)?

5. Do all of your backup files fail to restore individually?

Regarding changing the IMEI (using my files), the truth is that I don't know. I suspect that my backup files will only work for EXACTLY the same model as mine (N5120) and that it WON'T change your IMEI. I think the IMEI is "hard coded" in your phone and can't be easily changed. If it were easy, there would be a HUGE market in stolen phones!

But before you try my files, I would persevere with your own backups individually. You should be able to use your own backups. If you are desperate, you could try restoring just one of my m9kef files. When you can successfully restore one file, we/you might think about restoring the rest.

Hope that is of some help.

Regards
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] Giowi:
My tablet is a N5120

1)Yes

2)yes

3)it show "success" but no imei appears when i dial *#06#

4)yes

5) all backup files are restored successfully

If you extract "efs_backup.img" you can see a folder named "factoryapp".In this folder there is a file called " serial_no. if you open with notepad you can read your own serial number which is different form mine.

So, if I flash your file my serial number will change

I did a backup file with wanam app before losing imei.The app says "success" but no imei is displayed.

Never mind.Everything works.I can call or send sms.It's just strange that my imei is not displayed.

Thanks for your support :)
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] GaryTG:
OK.

I'm glad you can call and send SMS. Like you, I am puzzled by the missing IMEI. Hopefully someone more knowledgeable might be able to help you with the missing IMEI. One thought would be to reboot (but I'm pretty sure you would have tried that after the restores). The IMEI must be there and valid or I don't think you would be able to make calls......

I note what you say about the serial number.

Good Luck

[HTC Vox] qwertz1001:
I have a quite unusual problem when i connect my mobile phone to PC. It's very hard to explain nature of my problem. I can't figure how to describe it so I made a video to show you:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AtqCkyRXArc

Little explanation:

When I connect my mobile phone to PC everything gets synced like it should, but active window on my screen every few seconds gets selected and then it deselects so it's very hard to do anything, a specially write something as it doesn't register some of the letters i pressed. In video I'm writing numbers in order and you can see that in the period of time when active window deselects it self it doesn't registers numbers that I entered.

I recently upgraded to Vista 32-bit and Windows Mobile Center 6.1.6965, but I had the same problem on WinXP with ActiveSync installed.

I'm searching internet for weeks now to find solution, or someone with same problem, with no success.

Is there anybody else with this problem or with possible solution?

I would appreciate any info!

Thank you!
[HTC Vox] rphukan:
It seems the focus is moving away from your current active window for some reason. This is the same effect you would get if, for example, you were to click on some other windows while continously typing in notepad, and then clicking on the notepad window again..

must be due to some program running in the background.. does this happen only with the sync software running?
[HTC Vox] qwertz1001:
just like you said! weird problem! :D

Yes. it happens only when i connect my Vox to PC. I lost my charger so I charge my Mobile phone via USB. To be able to work on my PC while charging my Vox I have to disable USB connection in connection settings of device center, because it is really annoying to work on PC when focus is moving away from active window every few seconds. I had the same problem on WinXP with AciveSync.

I don't know which program could do such a thing, and do it only when I connect my mobile phone? Because i had the same problem on XP I'm starting to think maybe something is wrong with my mobile phone. I did hard reseted my phone few times. No effect. :(
[HTC Vox] docbobo:
You simply might want to try a different Mini-USB-cable. I lately had problems with the phone synching for only 45 seconds, then dropping out. After two days of hair-pulling I simply changed the cable - and everything worked fine.

You can access a 'hidden' (I haven't found a direct way to access) menu, which seems to be the standard battery menu in AOSP, for more battery-related settings using the activity

There are a lot of bugs (wrong color of text in buttons, not showing the last time it was charged etc) which maybe means that this is not supposed to be seen and we will probably lose access to it in the next iterations of the firmware.
