[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] mistororange:
Here is the issue now.. when I would go to format data, it would just stay stuck on formatting data with ext4 or w/e ... I left it for an hour or more, and nothing.... so decided to use miflash an restore everything. it goes all the way... but never actually says success just still says flashing, even with the green bar full and says finished 200s or something.. the last part of the log always stops after:

"[3:52:43 AM 49c50e2d]:err:writing 'vendor' 2/2...

[3:52:43 AM 49c50e2d]:err:eek:KAY [ -0.000s]

[3:52:43 AM 49c50e2d]:err:finished. total time: 23.850s"

so I've let that set for 20 minutes or more, then finally I just manually kick it out of fast boot, and it'll start to boot with MI Logo, and it has the white bar at the bottom, the bar loads all the way then it just hangs there, ive left it over night an its just stuck there

Even now I can fastboot flash a recovery image, and boot into it, but its unable to mount data, missing crypto header.. maybe I should just let the "format data" take its time maybe eventually it will?

Greetings Everyone,

I updated my stock camera app for v6.2.14.17 because of that I cannot launch my camera app from the lock screen. The error says "Permissions required Camera needs permission to access components on your device. Tap APP INFO and select Permissions to re-enable." I enabled all the permissions and still came up with the error.

I discovered that app does work correctly if the camera is already launched, but I do not want the camera to always running in the background. The app does work correctly if I uninstall all the updates too.

My phone is running Magisk with the stock rom is a XT1644 model.

If any of you guys have an apk of the previous that will be great.

So after updating to oreo my wifi is bugged out. I've tried everything and since it was via OTA (no root/no twrp). Every time I press on the wifi icon is just disables itself. Can someone help me ?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] br0adband:
Since the H918 Oreo update does not change the ARB value - it's still ARB1 from what I've been reading - that means you can (if you feel you must) roll back to 10p or 10s or whatever the latest KDZ available is and start over until something might be discussed and potentially resolved.

The H918 that I just a few days ago has a Wi-Fi issue where it disconnects quite frequently, sometimes once a minute for several minutes in a row, sometimes every 10-20 minutes and I cannot figure out why it's doing that. I do own an LG Stylo 2 Plus and that phone has a similar issue so I have to consider it could be a problem with the cable modem/router/AP that I have (Hitron unit from my cable provider, I don't like it and might switch it out).

With two different LG devices both having almost the same exact issue with Wi-Fi (I use 11ac in the 5 GHz band exclusively since I live in an apartment building where the other residents almost always use 2.4 GHz and it's just too crowded in that band) I can't say what's causing it, and yes it does seem to happen with other Wi-Fi connections at various locations when I'm not at home too.

Oh well, maybe it's just some issue with LG devices as I was saying. I'm about to install the Oreo update myself, doing a clean wipe back of 10u then straight to the Oreo update and we'll see what happens. I saw some other people saying they had issues with Wi-Fi after this Oreo update so there could be an issue with some devices.

Mine is from November 2016 so I'm beginning to wonder if the original production runs have some issues with hardware problems, it's a consideration too.

Not sure if this will help but iam on nougat and I've always had isaues with 5ghz signal, 2.4 has been rock solid but yeah the 5ghz would always disconnect at different times.

One solution i read over a year ago was the smart settings was the cause to all the 5ghz problems.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] br0adband:
Well after the update, my Wi-Fi still has the disconnect issue and it's really pissing me off because I can't figure out what's causing it. Of course, I'm leaning towards this Hitron cable modem/router/AP being the cause so I'll just have to call my cable company and tell 'em I want it swapped out for some other brand of device I guess.

Not digging the overall Oreo interface that LG has created but that's another thread I suppose.

1) Nope - it seems that copying the OTA file to the top of the internal storage (alongside the Download, Alarms etc. folders) works.

2)In Settings>Apps, tap the 3 dots in the top right corner and tap 'Show system'. The Motorola update services should appear then.

Be aware that this update may require NPNS25.137-92-14 (I've not seen the EU/US/APAC OTA released yet), so if you're from the US or have a non-Brazil/non-Indian device, this update may fail to be applied.
[Moto G5 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] knock_knock_LANDLORD:
My retus is NPNS25.137-93-14. If NPNS25.137-92-14 may be required then I guess there will be a different OTA file for EU/US/APAC? Unless Lenovo releases the lower number update NPNS25.137-92-14 to make the OTA compatible with EU/US/APAC?

Sounds like you got bootloader unlocked. Do you have a copy of the retin full ROM to flash? The ROM I had pointed to earlier is the U.S. ROM (sorry about that!).

If you can't find a copy of the retin full ROM did you try the one from your Rescue attempt?

It's not clear if his bootloader is unlocked because he's getting the " allow OEM unlock" message. This toggle has to be activated in developer options.

I saw that article and I think they are working off incorrect/old information. Many people in the comments mentioned G5s (no mention of G5plus retus builds) and also the US support site has posted those same notes with each monthly security update. They haven't posted any new G5plus 8.1 notes except for the October Security update this month(9/28 was the Sept version: https://support.motorola.com/us/en/Solution/MS133979).

Additionally the main support page still shows the G5plus as "pending carrier support" in the US as opposed to "rollout began in.." like in the UK, so I am pretty sure they are still doing betas on retus. I'd love to be incorrect though!

Custom Oreo to Stock Oreo, possible?

Hello. I received Oreo update last month on my G5 Plus and then decided to unlock bootloader and try custom ROMs. Before flashing the custom ROM (Oreo PE), I made a backup of all the folders using the following command-

C:\adb>adb backup --twrp

which resulted in an 11.2 gb (backup.ab) file.

I'm now running Oreo Pixel Experience but would like to go back to stock Oreo, lock bootloader and receive OTA updates. Is it possible using this file? I tried restoring the backup file but, ended up in the "Encryption Unsuccessful" screen.

Note: My IMEI is intact and I don't have any VoLTE/signal related problems. I used TWRP 3.2.3 to backup the boot, efs and persist onto external SD card but did that only after installing Oreo PE.

No, you need a complete fastboot ROM, the Blur file is just an update. Depending on your region there is a Oreo fastboot ROM here in this thread (I think it's for retin):

Otherwise flash latest available nougat firmware (93-14) via fastboot, take the OTAs up to Oreo and root your device again. Backup all your data before as it will be lost and also make a full nandroid backup incl. persist, EFS, system and everything else in TWRP.

OTAs do NOT work after pre-release Blur install -- help

I installed the pre-release Blur file to an XT1687 (Sprint G5 Plus) which got me to Oreo 8.1 (August).

Contrary to the thread, future OTA's did NOT work -- and they work on an identical phone which waited for the normal push.

Phones are NOT rooted and never have been.

I downloaded the OPSS28.85-17-2 stock file.

It will not update with ADB SIDELOAD -- it says 0.00% uploaded and gives no error message. The zip is fine, you can click on it and view the contents -- it is NOT corrupted and it exists within the Android Platform-Tools directory.

Since the phone is not rooted, I can't do an ADB Push.

This feels like the pre-release update orphaned me into a situation where I just can't load anything now.

Can anyone help with some instructions to get back on a true, factory firmware so that OTA's work again -- preferably without losing the phone's entire setup

FYI the LMSA tool also does not work (which is scary) -- it says "device unsupported"

How to fix updates after Blur file on XT1687

I'm going to answer my own question here.

After a lot of looking, I found this file:

https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1322778262904015899

Regardless of the fact that it is labelled "05-OTA_Package_OPS28.85-13.zip" what it really is is an OTA update that takes the phone from 28.85-13 to 28.85-17 (August 2018 to September 2018) and, apparently, gets the phone out of "soak".

To install, do the usual of putting the phone in recovery mode (vol down and power), select recovery, hold power while tapping vol up and then choose "install update from adb"

plug phone in

From a command prompt type this:

adb sideload "05-OTA_Package . . . " (the stuff in quotes is either the name above or something simpler chosen by you when you renamed it.

The file has to exist in the adb directory on your computer.

Following this, my phone was at 28.85-17 (September) and it then properly found the October security patch to take it to 28.85-17-2
[Moto G5 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Wolfcity:
You should also mention that 28.85-17-xx is the US only firmware while 28.85-13-xx is for Europe and other regions. For Europe for example the latest firmware is 28.85-13-5 (December security patch).
