[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] skywalker-live:
Go to settings> security> trust agents and turn off smart lock (Moto voice), and smart lock (Google). Then reboot and return to same menu to turn back on smart lock (Google) ( I've never needed Moto voice). This is supposedly a known problem with smart lock on many phones, this "fix" must be done for every (re)boot. Overlays also stop working needing a reboot to fix, which is a bigger process with needing to do this smart lock "fix" also at every (re)boot.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] theandies:
I actually had a few more security updates that installed and after the last one the smart lock options showed up. I set it up the way I like it and so far it's stuck. I haven't rebooted yet so I'll report back as soon as I do. Thanks
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] theandies:
Nope, the smart lock settings went away again. I think I'll just wait for PIE to come out and see if that fixes it.

I did do the Trust Agent work around and that does work but it still goes away after a while for some reason but thanks for the tip!

I've tried magisk and i get "update process ended with erorr 1".

I also tried flasing SuperSu and it was sucessfull, but still not rooted.
[Xiaomi Redmi 5 Questions & Answers] sekhar0199:
use latest magisk zip
[Xiaomi Redmi 5 Questions & Answers] Sheb05:
It occurs because rooting your ROM requires to mount Vendor. But the recovery you're using is unable to mount Vendor. So it produces error 1.

To solve it you need to flash another twrp recovery capable of mounting vendor.

Try twrp recovery by xdoge. It'll work.

I saw the thread on this forum about the VGA ROM for the P750...

Unfortunately I am not an expert at all and perhaps maybe not the right place here for me to ask but here it goes,

Can I easily install and remove the ROM in case the the VGA patch starts bugging? and how do you install the ROM, is there are step by step manual floating around?

any feedback greatly appreciated!

Hi, I did install the VGA ROM vers. 1.02 by Sorg & GreatVK and also tried the 0.17 by Sorg.

I didn't link the dual-mode keyboard (RUS-US) of the 0.17 and I think it has a higher memmory comsumition. So, I prefered the 1.02.

The 1.02 is stable, and the only problem I noticed is about the Live Messenger that do not works. The VGA screen is realy better!!!

If you do not like, you can install other dumped ROM or one of those you can find at asus website.

To install de Dumped: put the .nb0 file on a microSD (not HC) and press voice memo + down + power + reset.

To install de Shipped: put the .cap file on a microSD (not HC) and press voice memo + up + power + reset.

Here both methods works finte.

ok thanks alot

with dumped you mean the Sorg & greatVK rom and with shipped you mean the original Asus Rom?

you don t need to back up the original Asus ROM?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bleony:
Yes

Depends, if your ROM is avaiable at Asus site you dont. Mine was WWE UK, there has just WWE SG, TH and MS at asus site. I restored my to SG with no broblems, just did the forced mode 1st and after coud do the normal one.

Wich ROM is currenty on your device (settings/ system / system information / version)?

sorry for this long message but I need to get this device running VGA along with another 3 collagues who will be operating the same device

to flash ROM/install the VGA patch ::

On the Asus mobile club it is explained as:

The way the first - with MicroSD card

1)take (preferably clean, just formatted) MicroSD card no more than 2GB (MiniSDHC PODOYDET NOT!) And copy it, the root, file PegasusP.nb0

2) present the card into the phone, the phone or connect to a computer or to power supply.

3)joystick down and slide the button to switch off the top Hold these buttons in a position to release and push briefly reset (now come in such rastopyrku ASUS!).We continue to hold the button until butbloka server It shall commence proceedings firmware

ok so installing the root folder which is thiS? My MicroSD folder is completely empty and how do I know it s not HC?

for the record, the joystick button needs to pressed down or up? manual above says down, you say up!

thanks for yr help
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bras4real:
it seems to work now to some extent

in the boot menu it says ' PEGASUS NBO not found'

I checked in mobile explorer, the file is sitting there..

coulld it not work because my p750 is running on a Dutch ROM??? (the WM language is Dutch witch is not changeable it seems)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] wpmosc:
Copy The File PegasuP.nb0 to the just formatted Card, remember you must format FAT16 !! and then it should find it.......
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] wpmosc:
Oh the the Card will say HC on it if it is !! To flash to another Asus OEM Rom (like WWE English) put the AsusP750.cap File on the Card and do the same Procedure only push the Joystick UP, then it will ask to be plugged into either USB or Charger Cable, after you do this the Boot will start. Then extract the the whole OEM Firmware onto the Card and upgrade again.

Not working so far for me on 9.1.. Tried changing the commands for adb and fastboot in the file to include ./ and .\ respectively, still doesn't work. It opens the console then instantly closes it. Navigating to the folder with cmd and then opening the file just returns an empty line and goes back to the normal console view.
[Huawei P20 Lite Questions & Answers] LegoTechniker:
Hi

i changed some parts of the brute force code to get it working, but i doubt it is useful.

The unlock codes are calculated as follows (in pseudo code):

1000000000000000 + n * ( luhnchecksum(imei) + rounddown( sqrt(imei) * 1024) )

Someone with a valid unlock code could see if it is able to calculate the correct code:

(your unlock code - 1000000000000000) / ( luhnchecksum(imei) + rounddown( sqrt(imei) * 1024) ) = n -> Should make a whole number.

You can use an online calculator for the luhn checksum (always a multiple of ten).

But even if it is working a complete brute force run takes approximately 25 days.

I'm not able to post the code cloudflare is blocking it.

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] jack_21:
These days Xiaomi is in the spotlight mainly because of the 4G LTE bug that afflicted Mi A1 after the 10.0.2.0 Pie update.

Despite users reported the bug after installing 10.0.2.0, Xiaomi didn't payed attention to that and released another bugged update, 10.0.3.0.

Many users tried to downgrade Pie to Oreo, with the result of a bootloop just a second after the boot animation loading, and now everyone thinks that is due to the anti-rollback protection (ARB), recently enabled in MIUI smartphones like Redmi Note 5.

I'm here just to say that it seems that anti-rollback is not the cause of the bootloop, as it was not enabled on our Mi A1!

The bootloop is caused by changes made by Pie updates to "EFS" partition, same (wrong?) changes that disabled LTE bands (originals: 1/3/4/5/7/8/20/38/40 - after Pie 1/3/5/40/41)

If you have an EFS backup (for example made by TWRP while doing a full backup of Oreo stock rom):

- You can restore only EFS partition over Pie and get again your 4G/LTE signal

- You can restore only EFS partition and then reflash last Oreo V9.6.8.0 rom

If you don't have an EFS backup

- Someone in XDA released its own backup of EFS, search for the downgrade guide (i don't know what will happen about Mac Addresses or IMEIs)

- Wait for an updated Pie version (that will fix also the wrong WiFi Mac Address, we hope...)

The wifi Mac address is a security measure by Google to confuse hackers. It will randomise it when you reconnect to a wifi network or something like that.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] jack_21:
That randomize function should change Mac address between an SSID and another, and that's not the case.

Even so, the user must have the choice to use that or not. Maybe is only a bad implementation of that service.

Same problem, after several attempts I entered edl mode but reinstalling the official rom that is still that of November of course I returned to the starting point and that is continuous restarts, enters fastboot and in recovery but not in edl. The phone is recognized with the command fastboot devices but not with adb devices. The main problem now I think is restart in edl, I can not do it in any way and honestly I would not use that system where you have to open the phone being still under warranty. You do not have an idea about why I can not restart in edl and any suggestions to do it? if you need some information in + I'm ready to make you screenshots to understand together what's wrong.

What if I just want to flash twrp and roms based with December firmware?

I am currently on stock pie can you please tell me how to install twrp recovery?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Typhus_:
Hello!

Well, I've faced this stupid stuff yesterday and, furthermore, since I was completely unaware of this, I've used MiFlash Tool to clean all + lock the bootloader while flashing Stock Oreo. Result...bricked my phone.

Anyway, since it's possible to force EDL mode by opening the back cover and shortcircuit 2 pins, I was able to revive my phone and get it working on PIE.

Quite sometime back I've made a complete backup of all partitions using [MENTION=1844875]CosmicDan[/MENTION] Backup Tool from THIS thread.

I have all system images from stock Oreo.

So...which ones are needed in order to restore just EFS partition?

Cheers!
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] jack_21:
Well, maybe it's better to ask to CosmicDan as I never used that backup tool :(
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Typhus_:
Oh..I thought you knew which images files were needed, as well as, to which partition we should flash it.

By knowing that, we could simply create a TWRP flashable zip in order to restore EFS partition.

I'll try to ask him....although since he's not with tissot anymore, maybe he doesn't want to be bothered by this anymore...

Cheers!
[Razer Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] HO-COOH:
I found linuxct's guide (Link: https://xdaforums.com/razer-phone/how-to/treble-install-generic-image-gsi-razer-t3770684) need to be modified to get 9.0 GSI working (at least in my circumstance). I haven't tried any Oreo Gsi but to my case, I can't properly booted to 9.0 Gsi by following exactly to this guide. That's why I want to write my own processes of getting it works. Hope it's useful to some of you.

0) I strongly recommend you to flash back to stock image from razer, if you have messed up with the partitions. !!THIS WIPES YOUR DATA, PLEASE BACKUP THE INTERNAL STORAGE!!

(Link: https://s3.amazonaws.com/cheryl-factory-images/cheryl-o-global-6033.zip)

After flashing to stock, it should automatically reboot into the system.

/*To your convenience, please put all the required file under the adb tool folder*/

1) Enable USB debugging, reboot to bootloader by command:

adb reboot bootloader

2) Flash the prebuild boot image in linuxct's guide by command:

fastboot flash boot_a boot_linuxct_20180420_cheryl_omr0.img

(Link is mentioned above)

This boot image has TWRP and Magisk built in.

3) Reboot into TWRP by command:

fastboot reboot

4) In TWRP, tap Wipe and do a factory wipe. DON'T CHANGE THE DEFAULT WIPE SETTINGS.

5) Flash the GSI you have, then reboot to bootloader.

6) Extract and copy the stock boot image from Razer to the adb tool folder, and flash the boot.img by command:

fastboot flash boot_a boot.img

7) Reboot to the stock recovery, and do factory wipe, then reboot to bootloader.

This will decrypt the /data. (I am not sure why if I do it under TWRP, I can never boot into system, but that's the case.)

8) Flash the prebuilt image from linuxct again by command:

fastboot flash boot_a boot_linuxct_20180420_cheryl_omr0.img

9) Reboot to the system by command:

fastboot reboot

And whola, you should be able to boot into system without any decryption message. And you will have a partially functional TWRP.

If you need to flash any other GSI next time, you should first copy the GSI image through MTP in system. Because the TWRP doesn't support adb command and can't be mounted as MTP.

Once you have copied the GSI image, you can reboot into TWRP and flash image as usual.
[Razer Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] HO-COOH:
Here are the photos proving this works. I flashed Pixel Dust first through the command and booted. Then I reboot into TWRP and flashed PixelExperience through TWRP and get it booted.
[Razer Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] HO-COOH:
Can't image I figured out to flash the second system_b so quickly lol.

0) In system_a, reboot to bootloader by command: adb reboot bootloader

1) Flash the GSI you have to system_b: fastboot flash system_b [The GSI you have]

2) Flash the stock boot image to boot_b: fastboot flash boot_b boot.img

3) Set active partition to B: fastboot --set-active=b

This is where I found linuxct's guide tricky because it should be 'b'.

'_b' doesn't work.

4) Reboot to stock recovery: fastboot reboot

5) Do a factory wipe, then go back to bootloader

6) Flash the prebuilt image to boot_b: fastboot flash boot_b boot_linuxct_20180420_cheryl_omr0.img

7) Reboot to the recovery: fastboot reboot

And it will brings you to TWRP on B partition, and you can reboot to system_b now.

And whola, and now you can have both AB system with different GSI. And you can switch to any partition by going to TWRP on either partition and switch as you like!

Here are the photos proving I have Pixel Experience and Pixel Dust working seperately on two partitions.
[Razer Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] HO-COOH:
I also found that the prebuilt boot image from linuxct is breaking the wifi. Till now, you should have the TWRP patched boot image on both AB partition. So fixing that is pretty straightfoward.

1) Copy the stock boot image and TWRP installer zip to your phone in system.

Link: https://dl.twrp.me/cheryl/

I used the 3.2.1 version.

2) Boot into TWRP by command: adb reboot recovery

3) Flash stock boot.img on both A/B partition.

You can do this by first flash it to Slot A, and switch to B in TWRP. NO NEED TO REBOOT, SIMPLY SWITCH SLOT IN TWRP!!

4) Flash the twrp zip file.

This should fix your wifi.

DON'T FLASH MAGISK! I found flashing even the latest magisk v18.0 breaks wifi again.
[Razer Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] askylitangel:
So could you have stock on slot a and another GSI on slot b?
[Razer Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] tay200k:
Magisk still breaking WiFi and 4g? I played around with 9.0 gsi's ages ago and that was the only thing stopping me from using it. Have anyone tried the latest canary builds of magisk also?
[Razer Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] HO-COOH:
Since A/B systems are using a common /data partition, I think you can at most flash an 8.1 Oreo on another slot because the stock image is 8.1. And this breaks the OTA of stock, so pretty meaningless.
[Razer Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] parky169:
It worked for me following the guide unfortunately had to go back to stock (no WiFi) shame was looking good too thanks for the guide though helped at least getting system up and booting
[Razer Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] HO-COOH:
Follow the guide on #4, it will certainly fix Wi-Fi.
