Hello,

Yesterday I did the pie OTA with Magisk installed.

At first I got the bootloop, and then I used the flash_all.bat from here

I then booted from fastboot with the patched_boot.img and installed magisk with direct method.

Now it is booting and all my apps are working.

However, Google services framework keeps force closing and I can't open the play store (it opens a blank page and then crashes).

I tried wiping data for google services framework, google play services AND the google play store, and rebooted.

That didn't work.

Any ideas?

I would like to avoid doing a full factory reset.

Thanks,

Michael.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] danduson:
Hey, I hope this is the right place to post this, if not please let me know :)

Usually the phone acts as a USB-Device (and thus can be charged) but in OTG mode it acts as a host and therefore will output 5v and not be charged.

Is it possible to make a solution (either programmatically or hardware-level) to make the phone be able to act as a USB-Host and also be charged during the process?

Usually devices that connect to the S8 OTG for example has a resistor with some value on the ground and ID pins of the connector and the value of the resistor indicates the type of device that connects to the phone it is also possible to externally connect the right resistor and make the phone "think" it is connected to some kind of a device that will make it perform the way I need it to? (Such as a docking station that charges the phone but also is a USB-device of the phone)

Also, assuming it's programmatically possible, is it possible with out rooting the phone?

Hi guys, I have a problem with my eonon unit Ga8161 7.1, (px3 mtce KLD). When I set the brightness below 50%, the back lighting starts sobbing, as if there were a blinking LED flashing. I contacted the assistance asking me to update, I updated rom, mcu, installed rom halk and malaysk but the problem remains. So they sent me a new MB (not Android px3, but the MB where you install the MCU) is the problem is left. They sent me a new display and the problem remained. If you set the brightness to around 50% up, the problem disappears. What is the electronic card presented behind the display ??

It has three colours: Sapphire Red, Phantom Blue, Midnight Black but I think the V-shaped glossy back is more attractive.

Moschino edition has two colours. From the picture, the V shape is more obvious on this special edition.

Which colour will you choose?

i am facing problem on my A1609

bootloop, optimizing the apps, then bootloop ..

also , my sn in 'getvar' is 123456789abcdef ,

tried this tut 'guide-restore-null-sn-locked'

but no change in serial .

so i think if i flashed official CN rom maybe fix something ,

notes:

i did 'erase data&system&recovery&boot' flashed them again, no change .

appreciate any help , thanks
[Amazfit] lfom:
Are you sure your watch is an A1609? It has this model number printed on the bottom side? I have seen a watch that showed this "generic" serial number ("123...def") and simply flashing the correct firmware fixed the serial number (luckily bootloader remained unlocked after the owner flashed the wrong ROM on it).

If you are sure you have an A1609 and you followed the instructions correctly to restore SN as explained in that thread (you may need a misc partition specifically for Stratos, I think you cannot use one for another watch like Pace or Verge), then maybe you have a damaged internal storage, that's why you always get stuck in a bootloop... Try flashing an older firmware, the oldest one for your watch's model, maybe one can boot the watch. If it does, do not update or you may get stuck again.
[Amazfit] Saratoga79:
Yes, the SN seems to be the one used here in the dummy misc.img

I have a mi a2 lite and i want to unlock its bootloader, i have alrready enabled oem unlocking on developer options, when i boot my device in fastboot and connect to computer, command window says waiting for device and after 15-20 seconds of connecting my device to my pc, fastboot mode automatically exits and shows charging animation. Please anyone can help?

[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] mac12m99:
Check if you have installed drivers and run "fastboot devices" to see if device is recognised.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] hossman:
Agree something with your PC.

Phone will automatically exit fastboot if no connection in timely manner.

Check drivers are installed, reboot your PC.

Also be sure USB debugging is on in Dev option and trust PC.

For me, I generally boot Android normal. Then plug into PC and from command line, "adb reboot bootloader". That should verify adb, If that doesn't work, your PC not talking to device.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] CherryFarmer8:
I reinstalled the drivers and the command "adb reboot bootloader" works for me that means it boots to fastboot mode but when in fastboot mode, when i enter a command "fastboot devices" it does nothing and when i enter command "fastboot oem unlock" it again says waiting for any device.

i have attached a screenshot of it.

[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] capajga:
The solution for fastboot disconnecting after a few seconds are the windows drivers. There are different drivers for our phone, normal, bootloader and fastboot. Windows loads these drivers depending in which state the phone is.

If you still didn't find the correct drivers, you should try installing MiFlash, as it contains all the needed drivers for our phone ;)

If you like to try the Linux way, there's a distro called FWUL linux here on XDA ;)
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] CherryFarmer8:
Yeah, just go to windows drivers, click update device driver, browse my computer, let me pick, choose android > next > and choose another version or try whatever you feel is appropriate

[How-to] Unlock bootloader on Pixel Google Store with "OEM unlock" Disabled -

I experienced the mishap of locking back the bootloader after flashing the device with my signed custom build. The result was that i was no long able to activate the "OEM unlock" in the "Developer options".

The fact is that If you Signe your build you will not be able to rollback to stock build with ADB update / ADB Sideload / SDRAM zip ... because your Bootloader check the signature.

The only way to do it is to flash the OTA or google Factory Build by Fastboot and for that you need your Bootloader to be unlocked.

Here's in red what i did wrong :

- Activate the "OEM Unlock" in Developer options.

- Unlocked the bootloader with Fastboot

- Flash my signed ROM

- At this time the "OEM Unlock" will turn Gray and we can no more use it to activate or desactivate.

- To test some security functions, i did re-lock my bootloader with fastboot. (Forgot that the OEM unlock is disabled).

Here's what i tryed in order to solve :

I did the steps discribed in [How-to] Unlock bootloader on Verizon Pixel/XL by burduli.

That did not solve my issue :( but it gives me an idea where to look for. Big Thanks to [MENTION=5642246]burduli[/MENTION] (Cedit to [MENTION=6807580]Qu3ntin0[/MENTION] and [MENTION=3902253]LeoTheRomRasta[/MENTION])

Here's the steps i did to solve :

No need to be on internet or so on

I did notice on the Device that there was a Guest User account but i had no way to remove it.

To do so i managed to :

1 - Wipe (factory reset) : Setting / System / Advanced / Reset options / Erase all data (Factory reset) => (Find the entry according to your Built / Android version)

2- Boot in Safe mode (Turn off the device / Hold the power on button till Google screen then release and hold pressed the volum down button until the device finish booting.

3- Go to setting / System / Advanced / Multiple users

4- tap on Guest, then on "Menu" the [...] on top right of the window

5- "Delete Guest User from this device" and confirm (It will seem like nothing done but don't stress it's ok)

6- Ones again Setting / System / Advanced / Reset options / Erase all data (Factory reset)

7- Your Device will reboot and at this time hold pressed the volum down button until the device finish booting (this time it will take longer to finish booting cause android is seting-up all stufs) . (that will boot the device in safe mode).

8- Enable Developer mode (tap 7 times on Build number under "About phone")

9 - Goto Developer options and you are done (The OEM unlock option is back and you can enable or disable it) :):):)

You can now reboot your device in normal mode .

In Booltloader mode you can use the "Fastboot flash unlock" or Fastboot OEM unlok command to unlock the bootloader

Edit: Wait no, this is November 2018. Why isn't this working then?

Update2: Got it working. I used a combination of the steps here, followed by the steps listed in the guide linked in the OP (the `pm uninstall --user 0 com.android.phone`). Then I had to wait a few minutes for the OEM unlock to finally become available. Thank you.

Verizon Pixel 1 - unable to get it working still. as a note, when holding down the power down button during the 'erasing data' phase, the phone goes into Android Recovery Mode (shows me the BL, Baseband, Product/Variant, SN, CPO, UFS, DRAM, Boot-slot, Console (DISABLED), Secure Boot (PRODUCTION), Device is (LOCKED)). From here I can enter recovery mode, see barcodes, Power off, or Start.

I tried the following steps:

. Remove Google account and any kind of screen lock (fingerprint, PIN, pattern, etc.) from your device.

. Eject sim card from your device.

. Reset your device. In setup wizard, skip everything, don't connect to WiFi, don't add fingerprint or any kind of screen lock.

- Boot in Safe mode (Turn off the device / Hold the power on button till Google screen then release and hold pressed the volume down button until the device finish booting.

. Go to Developer Options and enable USB debugging.

. Connect your phone to PC.

. Open CMD in adb directory and type

Code:

adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.android.phone

- Go to setting / System / Advanced / Multiple users

- tap on Guest, then on "Menu" the [...] on top right of the window

- "Delete Guest User from this device" and confirm (It will seem like nothing done but don't stress it's ok)

- Ones again Setting / System / Advanced / Reset options / Erase all data (Factory reset)

- Your Device will reboot and at this time hold pressed the volume down button until the device finish booting (this time it will take longer to finish booting cause android is seting-up all stufs) . (that will boot the device in safe mode).

- Enable Developer mode (tap 7 times on Build number under "About phone")

- At this step i went to OEM Unlock and saw it was still disabled.

Is this something we can look at solving through the legal system?

tldr = Somehow, this worked for me on my Really Blue Pixel running QP1A.191005.007.A3. Initially, my OEM locking was greyed out.

I wanted to downgrade since my Wi-Fi will not connect after updating to Android 10. However, without an unlocked device, I could not downgrade. So, after much searching and trial/error, I tried this on a whim.

While I was not able to find a way to delete the Guest account (as stated in step 4), I was able to "remove" the Guest account, after selecting it and logging into it - at which point, I went back to the Multiple Users menu, and the "remove" option was there; it logged me back in as Owner. Then, after a very long reboot and cramped hands (step 7), I enabled developers mode but, alas, OEM locking is still greyed out. I opened Chrome and visited a few sites and went back in and OEM locking was selectable. Yippee!!

Next, I followed the instructions at https://developers.google.com/android/images and was able to install a previous image. Unfortunately, for some reason, my Wi-Fi still will not stay connected and becomes "Disabled."
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] tronoftroy:
after you removed the guest account, did you factory reset again?

also, when i hold Volume down during factory reset it will just go into fastboot mode. did you experience the same thing?
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] jedpublic:
Yes I did do the 2nd factory reset, which may be significant based on other people's reports...

If I recall correctly, the second time I factory reset, I held Volume Down from the moment I confirmed the restart. Honestly, I was trying so many different things though, so everything kind of blurred together.

One thing to point out is that my Really Blue Pixel was obtained from Google directly, not Verizon.

I've just bought myself a brand new Pixel 1 XL - 128GB Factory Unlocked. Sadly I wasn't aware of all these issues with OEM unlocking via the Developer Menu. Not knowing the drawbacks, I casually breezed through all the upgrades and reached 10.0 (QP1A.191005.007.A3) state. It was then I realised I cocked up...:crying: because no matter what combination of instructions I try in this (and other) threads, I simply cannot get the greyed out menu to budge! :(:confused: I have tried at least a dozen factory resets, countless adb removals, with/without WiFi, with/without SIM, with/without Google sign in, with/without Safe Mode, with/without Guest User Profile delete and so on.... all to no avail:crying:
