[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] dwab38:
Hello,

I am newer to these forums and even newer to rooting a phone. I have the OP 6t and tried to ROOT it the other day. I unfortunately have to use a MacBook Pro as my computer but found some instructions and started the process.

I was able to unlock the bootloader and that is where I am stuck. I try typing in commands into the bootloader per instructions to get the zwyr (I can't remember if that is what it is called) image onto the phone. There are about 5 or 6 steps left, and I desperately need help to finish.

Would anyone be able to walk me through the final steps? Again the bootloader is unlocked and I am a total novice. Your help is appreciated!
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Puddi_Puddin:
Boot into TWRP (Guide is on the twrp thread) then adb sideload Magisk. Why would you want to root anyway?

I want to be able to customize the phone more, like use substratum themes things of that sort.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] UniX1rm:
So, I decided to flash and use the only single rom that was posted in the development section. It was working great.

Today as I got into my car, and started driving, the screen went black. Battery was charged at the time to 80% or so.

I cannot get into fastboot, recovery etc.

Tried different combinations

Power vol +

Power vol -

power only

power vol - and vol up then plug cable

There is no vibration, sound, image. Nothing it was dead.

I get back home, throw it on the wireless charger and it boots up to the rom where I left off, no problem.

Rebooted to bootloader, flashed the latest december image just in case, rebooted fine. Then i went to turn the phone off regularly. Then it won't boot back on.

I tried to search if it was stuck on something like EDL and found nothing. The computer is not detecting anything when I plug it. I tried a few blind tests to run fastboot commands after different variations and no luck.

I tried to plug it in, and put it on the pixel charger stand again, and nothing is turning on. I took it off for a few minutes, put it back on and nothing.

I think it may be a case of checking the last flash-all log and all flashed on slot b, maybe that's the issue. I am trying to get back to fastboot with no luck!

Any advice on what's going on over there?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] DIXZ06:
Mine did the same thing when I used a custom ROM. The screen went completely black and there seemed to be no response from the key combinations.

Thanks to a write up by CZ Eddie I held the Power and Vol - for about 25 seconds and saw the fastboot screen flash. I then did it again and the same thing happened with the fastboot screen flashing and disappearing. I just kept doing this key combination over and over and finally the fastboot screen stayed there. At that point I was able to flash the stock December patch. I was still having intermittent issues and had to do a clean instill (with the -w intact).

Thanks to CZ Eddie as I never would have persisted.

You can read his write up in the guides section under "[WARNING] Do not boot TWRP to inactive partition".

Hope this helps!
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] UniX1rm:
Thank you. I have tried, nothing is flashing and no response what so ever. I did read his post before I posted here.

How long before waiting each time for the combination do you remember?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] DIXZ06:
It was always around 20 to 30 seconds.

Be patient and keep trying, you have nothing to lose. :good:
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] UniX1rm:
Yeah, i've been trying, left on the charger overnight and no luck. tried about 300 times or something!
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] AnierinB:
Hold vol+ and power for 60 seconds
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] UniX1rm:
That totally didn't work
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] airmaxx23:
Hold power and both vol + and - at the same time.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] AnierinB:
Oh well thought I'd suggest it as it works on some devices
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] UniX1rm:
Thanks for suggesting. It seems like its totally out. I even tried the qualcomm driver just in case, and nothing is detected. This sucks!

Similar (but not identical) bricked Pixel XL 3

So as of an hour or two ago, I now own a completely bricked Pixel 3 XL.

I had not tried to root or sideload or do anything custom to it. It was working fine (today) and suddenly, wouldn't wake up out of sleep with either the power button or the fingerprint sensor. I've plugged it in using the charger and cable that came with it, no response in anyway. I've put it on the official wireless charger stand, where the light briefly comes on when doing so, but quickly turns off again. I've tried various combinations of holding buttons down for over 30 seconds each (power + voldown, power + volup, power + voldown + volup), but still nothing. I have let it charge for over 30 minutes, but still nothing. Plugging into my laptop has no response on either device.

I hadn't been notified about the December 2018 update as yet, but I suppose if that had started automatically downloading just before it bricked, even without actually installing it, that could have somehow caused the issue?

I also had a problem about 48 hours ago, for a period of around 18 hours, where every app would have its visible page/tab/screen refreshed by the OS at random intervals, (similar to what happens when the Play Store app is updating apps, after it installs the new version of each app). I have no idea if this could be related.

Anyone have any other suggestions of things to try? I'm obviously pretty unhappy about this, and weirdly it happened just as I was putting the device packaging away, thinking that everything would be fine with the phone, having already owned it for about a month.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] airmaxx23:
One thing I haven't seen mentioned is when doing the button combinations you need to release the power button first once the fastboot screen pops up.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] natts:
Thanks but nothing comes up on my screen at all, whatever I hold down.

Went to bed last night with the Pixel 3 on the wireless charger, dead this morning. No charging light, no vibration, no power. I've let it charge for hours all day on different chargers, including the original. Called Verizon, they are sending a new one. I've tried all of the usual tricks, no luck.

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] secretwolf98:
I had a nice chat with B&N. The new Nook Tablet 10.1" will probably getting Android 9.0 (Pie) in the future (they were not too sure though). And the same for our Nook HD & Nook HD+ (but not Android 9.0 (Pie)).

" secretwolf98: Will it be getting the Android P (Android 9.0) update in the future? Or no?

B&N: Let me check it for you.

B&N: As of the moment, there is no assurance for that upgrade.

B&N: It is not yet determined.

secretwolf98: And one last question,

B&N: Sure.

secretwolf98: Will the Nook HD and the Nook HD+ being getting anymore updates in the future? or was the last update the last update?

B&N: It might have an update in the future."

Any questions? Don't be afraid to ask me.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmyshkin:
Mmm....we interpret that conversation a little differently.

In any case, the main reason my husband finally gave in to flashing a new OS on his HD was that even after a minimal rooting we had no way to stop B&N repeatedly pushing the apps that came with it (most of which he did not want/use and had therefore uninstalled) and eventually there was very little space for apps that he actually

did

want. It was like he was renting or leasing the tablet and at the mercy of the provider.

So...it might be nice, but maybe not nice enough to pry him away from an occasionally cranky CM 13 install, unless B&N changes its model of how an owner can determine what apps will be installed and which will be deleted.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LanceDiamond:
Thx!
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] klamation:
Although I would love to think B&N will release an update for the HD/HD+ line, I don't see them doing that. The device is too old for them to invest any more time into it. Adding TLS 1.2 support was great, but it's beyond its support life for any new features.

As for the future with the new Nook10.1, it currently supports Oreo/8.1, and I'd be surprised if they actually update it to Pie/9 support. Most of the times these tablet vendors update their custom ROM, it's to fix bugs in the current OS version, not upgrade to a new OS.
[Nook Touch Android Development] nmyshkin:
Mea culpa

When I put together the update package for NTGAppsAttack I just assumed that the patched jars for FW 1.2.1 (framework.jar and services.jar) would be the same for FW 1.2.2. And, in fact, I've not had any issues yet.

But in tracking down an, as it now turns out, unrelated issue, I had cause to look more closely at the jars from the two firmwares. They are close, but not identical. This made me a little nervous because I don't want to mess up peoples' devices

So, with guidance from [MENTION=4474482]Renate NST[/MENTION] I have patched the jars from FW 1.2.2. These can now be found at the attachment section of the first post in this thread.

The good news is that you don't need to reinstall GApps. You can just "hot swap" these files:

adb push framework.jar /system/framework/
adb push services.jar /system/framework/

After I had done that I deleted the dalvik-cache files for the same two jars (found in /data/dalvik-cache near the end of the listings), and then completely shut down. Boot on powering up is alarmingly slow, but it does happen and then everything is back to normal.

As always, you might want to make a back-up first if doing this makes you a little nervous. Or, you could just ignore the whole thing. It may not matter.

Changes added to first post.

I am going to use this in my office for the calendar feature to access my appointments quickly via the awesome, low energy, easy on the eyes e-ink of the nook. Thanks so much for everything you do!

---------- Post added at 07:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:27 PM ----------

@nmyshkin If I want to keep the stock calendar app, will that cause any problems? If I don't like it, can I remove it without issues?
[Nook Touch Android Development] nmyshkin:
You can try out the stock calendar app without any issues. As long as the calendar sync app is enabled, it should work OK. If you decide against it later, simply remove the app from /system/app and reboot. For complete cleanup, also delete the stock app folder from /data/data/app and also the cache for the app from /data/dalvik-cache
[Nook Touch Android Development] ALinkToTao:
Thanks, man.
[Nook Touch Android Development] ALinkToTao:
[MENTION=5562185]nmyshkin[/MENTION] I've been playing with this, and it's working really well for my purposes. Paired with USB host and a keyboard, it's a great energy efficient and distraction resistant tool for the office. The only issues I've seen so far are these:

1. I just installed the GoContacts app. (I didn't install it at the very beginning). For right now, it doesn't seem to want to sync. I tried forcing sync with your app. I feel like it will eventually work. Or perhaps maybe I should have installed it at the very beginning of this process?

2. The calendar works great-mostly. I use it in my office to quickly see my schedule at-a-glance for patients that are coming in. For some reason, it syncs 80 to 90% of the calendar entries from my google calendar, but not all of them. There will be holes in my schedule that aren't actually there. Every week there are often entries of 35 or more appointments. Perhaps there is a limit as to how much can be synced at once. The stock calendar app seems to work the best for my purposes. I have the aCalendar app as a back up as its features are different and still useful.

Thanks again for all the work you did on it. I'm definitely enjoying the benefits of it.
[Nook Touch Android Development] nmyshkin:
I'm afraid I'm not going to be of much help here. For me, contacts and calendar were an exercise to see if I could get things to work, given Google's abandonment of Android 2.1. I don't really use either, although I occasionally will use contacts to start up an email address I can't recall.

First, let me remind you that Go Contacts only will sync with contacts from the principal device account (so the first Google account you logged into GMail with). I just created a fake contact on my PC this morning as well as a fake calendar entry. Neither of them was picked up by just a simple wi-fi connection. Both were immediately picked up with a tap on QuickSync. I can't speak to the stock calendar app. Besides finding it difficult to read, I vaguely recall other issues. There were so many things to test, it's all pretty much magic now. So I settled on acalendar which I had seen someone recommend and found it to work

as far as my testing went

. Its manual "synchronize" function also brought up the new calendar event without the use of QuickSync.

As to multiple events, well I just didn't try whole bunches, so I just don't know.

Does Go Contacts not bring up

anything

? For settings, I have only Google accounts showing, but if you have contacts without phone numbers you'll need to include that also or you won't see any. I'm not sure about the "phone contacts" setting. Mine is unchecked. You just want to stay away from most of the other settings. Generally when I have installed the app it's already got all the contacts picked up by the time I get around to looking at it. I'm sorry I can't be of more help. The whole GApps thing is pretty weird in that anything works at all, but it's not of much use if it's not consistent for you.
[Nook Touch Android Development] ALinkToTao:
Thanks, I tried changing it to Google only, and it still isn't syncing. No problem, man. I really appreciate it. I'm seeing which functions are working smoothly and keeping those only.
[Nook Touch Android Development] frittahubris:
Is there any version of Google books with syncing that works?

And also gDrive?

And does it make a difference if it's UK version or US version?

Thanks
[Nook Touch Android Development] nmyshkin:
No, and no, and no. Sorry.
[Nook Touch Android Development] frittahubris:
That's a shame. Are there any eReader apps that have syncing that work with this mod? Otherwise I don't see much use for this unless it's your only reading device.
[Nook Touch Android Development] nmyshkin:
I know that FBReader can use your Google Drive to sync books. I have tried it recently and it works. It's all handled within the reader app so you don't actually need a functioning Google Drive app on the device. I believe that AlReader also has this function.

Edit: here are instructions that worked for me with FBReader: https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3957311

[Asus Transformer TF700] georgecoat:
I was running version [ROM][N 7.1.2] [ KatKiss - Nougatella #027 ] by timduru on my TF201 for some time and today I decided to upgrade TWRP (from twrp-3.1.0-1-tf201t to twrp-3.2.3-0_KANG-tf201t).

I booted into TWRP, selected install twrp-3.2.3-0_KANG-tf201t into staging partition and then restarted.

After rebooting I ended up in TWRP bootloop.

As TF201 boots, skips fastboot and goes directly into TWRP splash screen then after several seconds without going into recovery it restarts again into TWRP splash screen.

That repeats several times until it freezes in TWRP splash screen. It never goes to recovery or boots into system anymore.

I tried to push Power and Volume Down together or Power button only it still keeps restarting into TWRP splash screen and rebooting. I tried different button combinations when I was in TWRP splash screen, Volume Down and Power restarted and I pushed immediately Volume Up, I got screen with error saying something about encryption error with the button reset. I tried to exit from there pushing Volume button but maybe I accidentally actually selected tablet reset?

During restarts or TWRP splash screen freeze I do not have access to recovery, fastboot or get any adb recognition on Windows (all drivers are installed).

My only possibility is to get into APX connected to my Windows.

Since I can still get it into APX and I have also created and stored my nvflash blobs backup long time ago should I start NvFlash recovery with generated blobs following this thread

[url]https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2538028[/url]

or is there anything else I can try?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you all in advance!

Lucky that you have your nvflash blobs! Otherwise I would say it is a hard brick. Although why totally escapes me. A bad recovery flash should not brick it... I haven't heard of a 3.2 Kang version for the 201 though. Sure it is legit??

Anyway, no fastboot, no adb in recovery leaves you only the nvflash option. Good luck!

Post your steps if you don't mind, never saw anybody actually do a nvflash restore...

Download 'Minimal ADB and Fastboot' to a Windows 7 computer/laptop (found here): https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2317790

Enter APX mode and plug your tablet into the computer/laptop and see if the TF201t shows up, fire up Minimal ADB and Fastboot and send the fastboot -i 0x0B05 reboot command to see if ADB is talking to the tablet.

Try this out, if you can flash the tablet from the PC you can wipe it and reinstall the recovery console, reboot and see if the tablet is saved. - NP

You can sell it for about $200-$230 depending on storage as is on Ebay and it will probably sell quick assuming the back didn't get dinged too. If you put $200 into a screen it'll sell for about $440 and you still make about the same amount profit after all is said and done. Save yourself the headache and put it on eBay as is.
