[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] bomba697:
I didn't use the method posted by [MENTION=7786725]zgfg[/MENTION]. What I did was: (this procedure is going to lock back your FRP setting and bootloader, so you can try it but at your own risk)

Use Multi-Tool 8 (https://xdaforums.com/honor-8/development/tool-huawei-multi-tool-team-mt-t3523923) to reinstall stock recovery and recovery2

Download https://www.dc-unlocker.com/downloads/get/jvObBBIo

Put the phone in fastboot

Use the FRP Erase option to recover/format /data (it cost you 15 credit, $15), it was successful

Take empty SD card formatted in NFTS

Put in dload folder the rollback UPDATE.APP file taken from http://download-c1.huawei.com/download/downloadCenter?downloadId=92765&siteCode=it and install it

Last, put in dload folder b182 UPDATE.APP file from http://download-c1.huawei.com/download/downloadCenter?downloadId=91783&siteCode=it

This functioned for me, you can try to skip step 5 and install directly b182.
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] kazshizka:
Will check out both methods. I'll try it through TWRP first since it should be easier to use an open bootloader rather than a locked one.

[MENTION=9465309]bomba697[/MENTION] will reinstalling stock recovery fix my deleted system issue? coz I'm not sure if I flashed the custom ROM properly anymore
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] kazshizka:
UPDATE:

Tried [MENTION=9465309]bomba697[/MENTION] method and fixed my system but I skipped the FRP Erase portion. I just installed the stock recovery straight (thus not paying 15 credits) from the multi tool then rollback using dload then update to b182. Though it did change my system to C900 from C636.

Thank you very very much!!
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] bomba697:
Happy that you found the solution! I tried directly flashing the rom but I wasn't able beacuse of the \data mount error.
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] lirong:
Curious if anyone here switched over to the Pixel 3 from a Galaxy S9?

Would be interested in thoughts/comparisons if anyone has experience with both phones...

Thanks!
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] Sevael:
I was using an S9 previously.

I tried the 3 XL first as I also have a 2 XL, but the 3 XL was just too large and cumbersome, especially with a case on it. The regular Pixel 3 is a much more reasonable size so that's what I stuck with. I returned the 3 XL.

The P3 feels smaller in the hand than the S9. I didn't actually compare them side by side so it could just be my imagination, but the P3 feels very small. Great screen size though so no issues.

Despite it having an OLED screen, the P3's screen color is pretty weak so I used an app called Sa2ration to increase the P3's color saturation to match the S9 and P2XL. It requires root, just FYI. Looks great now! I'm very happy with my upgrade.
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] RogerSC:
Came from an S9. Some issues that I had with the S9 are way too many settings and way too many apps. The extra apps included Samsung's redundant versions of just about everything. My experience is that Samsung likes to re-do everything their way, Bixby and all the rest are just redundant. And you can't uninstall that stuff, can't root the phone. Also, the Android security updates from Google are, in a word, irregular for the S9.

And to add insult to injury, to do something as simple as waking up the lock screen when you get a notification, you have to have an app to do that. Amongst the gazillion settings, they couldn't include that one *smile*.

The high points of the S9 are great screen and fast chip set. I find the Pixel 3 to actually be faster with the same chipset...most likely either placebo, or due to all the extra apps that Samsung gifts you with.

Anyways, I love the barebones Android on the Pixel 3, also a great screen, and a faster phone *smile*. I'm very happy with the Pixel, and much happier than I was with the S9. I have replaced the Pixel launcher with the Nova launcher, don't like the Google search widget and the time and temperature widget taking up so much space on my home screen, but with that change the Pixel is about perfect *smile*.
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] lirong:
Yes I know a lot of people dont like the bloat of Samsung for good reasons.

How do they compare in terms of performance - battery? lagginess? I have heard that the S9 has done a great job minimizing some of the performance impact the bloatware used to have...I have had a number of Samsungs so I dont mind that much tinkering to get all the alerts set, disable the bloat, etc. as long as I get great performance to go with their beautiful hardware, so I am wondering how that aspect compares to the P3...
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] adimanwit:
i switched from s9. Pixel 3 i awesome. no samsung crap apps on it and Bixby.. camera is better works well with google assistant. but.. s9 had much much better battery life and charging speed. i hope google will fix it soon
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] Sevael:
I'm finding the P3 to be slightly faster than the S9, but the S9 wasn't slow to begin with. I didn't have any issues with it.

My P3's battery life is about par with my S9.
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] sd_N:
I did...

I switched from an S9+ actually. I like the smaller phone size anyways. I gave my brother my S9 and I went to the plus. Just got my Pixel 3 yesterday and i realize how much I've missed the smaller form factor. And the screen is great and the software is fast. And it's way simpler than Samsungs UI. I believe photos are very close to each other. I'm still learning the Pixel but I enjoy using it.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] sanjay0501:
Every thread about Poco display I have seen, apart from the deficiency of the display panel has one thing in common .

Xiaomi has saved money and cut corners by using cheap display.

If the display is so terrible then how come YouTube is offering HDR playback on Poco upto the dislplay's resolution which is 1080P,60fpsHDR.

The only phone I could find online mention of, with a non HDR display able to play YouTube hdr video is Pixel.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] sym_m:
Maybe becuse of soc i dont know even tho the hdr videos dont look good on pocophone sadly i hope we got amoled screens with next pocophone in same price range
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] sanjay0501:
Don't think soc will be the reason. Some software algorithm with high brightness maybe.

Also there's again split opinion among users for some videos are lousy and washed out colours whereas for others the colours are stunning. For me personally colours are quite good.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] aadvandersteeg:
I don't know people are spoiled, they love to nag
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] sayHello21:
That maybe true most times but Poco display is not HDR complaint. So yes I can confirm that the HDR video resolution though available doesn't render at all. You are only able to see the natural Colors with a tiny bit less contrast than normal(not completely washed out as some say). Definitely can't render the true HDR punchy Colors. Not possible.

[LG G2 Mini] Criskael:
Hi, I'm new in this but I'm also desperate for help. For starters, I live in Venezuela so it's a bit troublesome to visit a proper tech service and stuff. Well, as I said in the title, the problem with my phone is that it keeps getting stuck in the LG logo. I've already flash it several times, but this solution only seems to work for a few days. I'll explain the problems in a chronological order

1) I dropped my phone in january and the screen broke, so I bought a new one along with a new touch screen. At that time, the only problem that I had was that, even though I had a SIM card in my phone, it didn't have any mobile network signal. I tried many things but gave up on that and the problem's still with me

2) In an attempt to fix that issue, I factory reseted my phone and since that time I got the feeling that something was off with my device but I dind't pay attention to it cos my phone was working appareantly fine

3)After that my device started to get laggy and I tought it was the battery because sometimes it was at 87% and when you turn it off and turn it on again, the battery was at 67% in an instant. It wasn't that bad so I kept using it like that

4) Sometime around last month my phone reboot itself (it was usual that when my device got reaaally laggy it reboots itself). The problem was that it got stuck in the LG logo so I look for solutions and end up flashing it.

5) It worked for a few weeks but the cycle started again. Laggy and then stuck in LG logo. I bought a new battery (wich works fine) thinking that this would solve the problem so I did a factory reset, flash it and then turn it on but the problem still didn't go away.

I'm desperate for help cos I need my phone to work and since I live in Venezuela, I really need the money and obviosuly, I can't afford to buy a new device. Could someone help me?

A little note here. I tried upgrading the software using "LG Mobile Support Tool 2014" but the app shuts down before downloading the upgrade. I don't know if it's due to my laptop being really old (Acer Aspire 5920). I know I have A LOT of troubles but I'm in need of a friendly help!

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] 0v3rl0rd:
So, I wanted to have a stock rom, rooted with magisk, and data partition decrypted, so what I did is the following:

1) wiped data partition

2) flashed stock OOS (latest, 5.1.6)

3) flashed Magisk

4) flashed DM-verity & force encryption disabler (this link)

Now I have a few questions:

1) I tried flashing the dm-verity from this link (no_verity_op5_v2.zip) but it didn't work so I flashed this newer version (disable_dm_verity_forceencrypt_09_02_2018.zip). Any ideas why it didn't work?

2) What should I do when a new OOS update comes up?

3) What should I do when a new Magisk update comes up?

Regadring Magisk: In Magisk there is a option "Preserve AVB 2.0/dm-verity":

1) What does it do?

2) What is AVB 2.0 in the first place?

Thank You all in advance :D
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] shadowstep:
Answers:

1. It didn't work because you have to flash that zip BEFORE you flash Magisk (it's stated in the thread's first post too). The zip creates the required files which tells Magisk to disable dm-verity and forceencrypt when it is flashed.

2. When a new OOS comes out, all you have to do is dirty flash it, then the universal zip and then Magisk. You should be unencrypted with the new OOS as well.

3. The universal zip will most likely be updated if there are major changes in Magisk, but if not, then just update Magisk as usual, from within Magisk Manager. If you wish to update from TWRP by flashing the latest Magisk zip, then you have to remember to flash the universal zip BEFORE the newest Magisk zip and you should be fine.

Regarding your other queries, AVB refers to "Android Verified Boot". Google it and you'll find lots of information about it (which may be technical). Regarding the option in Magisk, it's for those people who want to let dm-verity intact while using Magisk (because some phones don't boot when dm-verity is disabled and hence this option is there for those people). Don't fiddle with it since you want to stay unencrypted and disabling dm-verity causes no issues on the OnePlus 5. :)
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] 0v3rl0rd:
Thank You for Your answer :)

Regarding point 2 - OOS update: should I reboot after every step or no?

I mean:

1. dirty flash OS

2. reboot to recovery

3. flash universal zip

4. reboot to recovery

5. flash magisk

6. reboot to recovery

Or should I do that without rebooting: flash everything and then reboot to recovery?
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] strongst:
It's not necessary to reboot to recovery after each step.

[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] superchilpil:
Use the font packs in magisk, it has better compatibility.

With that said it should work, but it's been awhile since I've ever made a flash able zip and alot has changed since then so I'm unfamiliar on how they work so there a chance it won't work.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] gettinwicked:
There aren't many fonts in Magisk. I checked out a few last week. I suppose I'll try the flashable's myself. I can always flash-all again.

[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] ZyGaming:
Hey there!

In the past few days I've been researching on how could HUAWEI generate their oem unlock codes. If you ALREADY got your unlock code, maybe, MAYBE you could help me and others.

HUAWEI and paid services use IMEI code (and probably serial number?) for generating the oem unlock code so I'm asking you to send this AND the unlock code they (or other third party) gave you. I will not share your data to anyone else, only me and a few friends of mine will know it, who also have HUAWEI phones and want it to be unlocked without having to pay or wait for a vulnerability to be exploited.

Why would you do it, and why risk your data by sending it to a stranger? Well, honestly, I don't know.

Chance of success? None

I am a simple man with a simple mind and I know 99% sure I will fail achieving anything but at least we are trying. I am not even close to being as clever as the guys making the software for the phone, but maybe it doesn't matter and they just have a very bizarre pattern in arranging the SN and IMEI... I really don't know.. I don't promise anything.

Now the only way to unlock your phone is through paid service, and its nearly 100% they will not give out any information about HOW they get the codes because they make profit out of it. (more than 30 dollars for a code that should be free? Heck no. I'm just too cheap probably

I know that moderators are not happy about me asking for these, if you are one of them feel free to delete my post.

Also, its my first thread, sorry if I didn't do everything as the rules expect it.

Thank you for helping out a few fellas who are not lucky enough to have an unlocked phone.

Have a good day.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] Tsun_Pooka:
Well, before I decide whether to give my details out, let me just tell you about something when it comes to Huawei's own bootloader code service.

They needed the following:

- The first IMEI if you use a phone with two IMEIs

- Serial number

- Product ID

To have the latter two, dial *#*#1357946#*#*.

Other notes include that the bootloader unlock code, or at least mine, is 16 digits long. My serial number is also 16 digits long, but the IMEI is 15 digits long. Finally, my product ID is 8 digits long. These correspond with my Mate 10 Lite (RNE-L21).

Good luck on decoding the secrets of their bootloader unlock generation!

You tried to relock the bootloader didn't you? Usually not a good idea. Is it not booting anymore? If it boots go in developer options and tick the allow OEM unlocking back to on. And then see if unlocking the bootloader changes it.
