[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Scorpionea:
Well that is a very dangerous process and should not be done if u dont have any major issue but since u have pretty much death phone as u say it cant hurt to try as a last option.

Google what nand erase is in odin option,it will explain much better then me [emoji14]

Wish you all luck

Edit : try and see if u can find any emergency firmware aka repair firmware for you s8 if it exists and flash with that
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] nocuna:
I've tried it now, same result as always :/

In download mode it says OEM LOCK: ON, could that be the reason why?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Scorpionea:
Since u trying to flash samsung official firmware it shouldn't matter. Dont know what to advice as u tried pretty much everything i would do.

Maybe someone with more insights and knowledge what to do could help you but dunno.

Search the web all i can say.

Can u boot into the recovery? Maybe try to flash twrp and format everything from there ?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] nocuna:
I think I've gone through every forum post and article on the internet about the issue, can't seem to find a solution.

Can't boot into recovery either, only download mode. I'll keep trying and I'll see if I can send it in for repair.

Thanks for your help, really appreciate it.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] badaboomBURP:
Have you fixed it already? If not try flashing everything with odin and also in 'Pit' tab put dreamlte .pit file from inside CSC .md5 file(open with rar)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] riseofsand:
Double check your files make sure you're not flashing an old fw and your Odin

After that, you probably try to flash using a non original data cable, its not a must but some cables can cause that
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] nocuna:
I'll try that, thank you
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] nocuna:
I've triple-checked everything. Both Odin and the files are all up to date, and the files are from the same firmware I had on the phone before it got bricked.

I'm going to try using firmware from SamMobile instead of SamDB.org, and will post back with results.

UPDATE:

Flashed firmware from SamMobile, it went through and my phone works again. Can't believe I spent $7 on SamDB for faster download speed and all I got was some files that don't even work properly. Next time I'll be more patient I guess

Batik Recovery is Project Recovery developed by Batik Recovery Teamwork from Indonesia, this Batik Recovery is a derivative of the Official TWRP that was modified by the developer in accordance with the Indonesian characteristics. In Indonesia, batik is a motif that is considered quite famous for the beauty of its art. Therefore, the developer gave the name Batik Recovery and a touch of batik motifs in the Recovery, including splash, background, and icon. The goal of the developer to release the project is to further popularize batik, and especially to popularize the name of Indonesia.

I didn't test stock ota update I wont fun stock miui unless I have to wait on unlock. I have flashed multiple custom miui roms and one aosp rom. Everything flashed fine along with backup and restore of all roms. I tested a few of the scripts/tools and no problems so far.

Edit: aroma gapps 9.0 wont install. After selecting all options and install starts recovery reboots. Then no matter what reboot option I choose it boots back into recovery. Have to long press power to reboot to system. Happens on modified twrp also.

Hello. Is it possible to install the image contained in the ZIP file by ADB?

Sorry for my bad English
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] SubwayChamp:
If your zip contains an image and a META-INF folder you can use adb sideload.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Fuffzehn:
Cannot encrypt my phone properly when using this recovery.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] sting12345:
Hey guys I'm familiar with flashing an .img via adb fastboot but how do you flash this recovery if you want to use the entire .zip? I pulled out the img and did it that way at first.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] SubwayChamp:
The zip contains some recovery tools to be unpacked on TWRP folder that will be used by Batik so better is to flash the zip.

You can do it from two ways:

- If you already flashed the image, boot to Batik recovery and flash the zip placed inside your adb folder on pc using adb sideload.

- Or copy the zip to your main SDcard on your device and flash it through batik recovery.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spaceboy60:
Uninstalled efidroid and now in a bootloop and can't enter download mode. When I try to go to recovery via hardware keys instead of going to TWRP it just goes back to the LG Logo and starts bootlooping. Bricked device? Any ideas?

What's the chance of sending it back (was running custom ROM) under warranty saying I did a factory reset or something along those lines?
[LeEco Le 2 Questions & Answers] general.nie7:
Hey people, I'm thinking about buying this phone, however - my data has to be secure.

Therefore my question is - is the encryption broken completely on custom roms (mainly Lineage) or just hardware encryption and there is some kind of software encryption available?

I'd be very thankful for clarifying it!
[LeEco Le 2 Questions & Answers] luks333:
usually the problem is not the ROM itself but the recovery. TWRP for Le2 does not support encryption, maybe Redwolf does. I am going to try it soon because I have the same need.
[LeEco Le 2 Questions & Answers] luks333:
EDIT: update on this. Neither Redwolf works. I have tried also with Batik recovery but I could not even get to Recovery, stuck at boot screen. I had to reflash Redwolf with Fastboot.

Thanks for telling! Somebody on the forum wrote that with enabled encryption the camera doesn't work, could you confirm it?

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] Haven765:
I've been stalking XDA for a while and I finally decided to make a post because this RMM stuff is sending me over the edge. I received Galaxy Tab for Christmas and from day one, I unlocked developer options, you know, the usual. USB debugging and such and to my surprise, OEM unlock was not hidden. I had a note 8 and waited months and months and months for this stupid option to appear which obviously never did so this was a nice change of pace. Even then, I wait a few weeks before I actually decide to start rooting.

So today was the day I would root it and as I hit start to flash TWRP recovery;

I ran head first into a brick wall; "Only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed"

I'm sitting here like, are you kidding me, I did everything that was required of me, so what the problem? A while of looking around later, I figure out what this god forsaken RMM status thing is. Great, wonderful. A form of defense against theft but I've had this device since Christmas; 23 days in total. There was even a period where I had it on for 7 days because it nagged me about resetting it after this period of time (which I did).

I look over the screen, completely dumbfounded;

FRP LOCK: OFF

OEM LOCK: OFF

RMM STATUS: Prenormal

What??? :eek:

I’m not on a know it all level with Knox and all these security measures that Samsung has been including but, to me this doesn’t make sense. If my status was ‘Prenormal’, wouldn’t the ‘OEM unlock’ option not even be visible to me? If it was ‘Prenomal’, why does the ‘OEM unlock’ option in my developer menu say that ‘the bootloader is unlocked’?

I just need someone to save me and point out what I’m missing cause it has to be something preventing me from moving forward. It would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

TLDR; Had it longer than 7 days, OEM/bootloader unlocked, yet my RMM status is on prenormal. Can’t flash TWRP or root cause of it. Help, pls, thanks. :angel:

[General Questions and Answers] Prayerwimp:
Hello, I have a LG G4 That is set up for Verizon. Is there a way to set up the phone to use any service or does a service have to chosen first? Also, can the sim card be used for other services or will I need to get a new sim card? I want to set up the phone for a service like Tracfone? Do I have to have a sim card? Can I get a blank sim card and program it myself?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
In most cases where you intend to use a phone from one network on a different network, it typically requires a device that has been SIM/carrier unlocked.

In the case of switching from Verizon to Tracfone, you might be able to just buy a SIM and activation kit from Tracfone then use it to activate your Verizon device on the Tracfone network. You need to verify this by checking the Tracfone website or by calling Tracfone support to see if your device can be activated on the Tracfone network without SIM/carrier unlocking the device first.
[General Questions and Answers] Prayerwimp:
Can the phone be reformatted/reloaded/reset without any network?? So that I can choose my network at a later date. I want to remove the Verizon network from the phone.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Using the device on another network doesn't involve removing anything from the device. The Verizon network is not "in your phone", your device's information is entered into the Verizon network and activated on the Verizon network.

I think you need to do some more reaearching and reading about how devices are switched from one network to another.
[General Questions and Answers] Prayerwimp:
When I turn on the phone a Verizon splash screen comes up and then it wants me to set up the phone on the Verizon Network. I am wanting to know how to get that off the phone. Maybe it is on the sim card. I don't know allot about this.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Do you have an activation kit that contains a SIM from the carrier that you want to use the device on? You can't leave the Verizon SIM in, it requires a SIM from the network that you intend to activate it on.

Call the support line for the network that you intend to activate the device on and verify with them whether or not the device you have is compatible with their network, if it can be activated on their network, they will tell you what you need.
[General Questions and Answers] Prayerwimp:
So, if I remove the sim the Verizon will be gone? Do I need a sim? I had a phone before that, with the help of a person on this forum, I re-installed the operating system and I did not put a network on it. I did not remove the sim and don't know if it was removable on that phone. It was a HTC one.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Yes, right now the device has a Verizon operating system, but the OS does not necessarily have anything to do with what network the device is used on, it can be used on another network with the OS that it currently has, sometimes, flashing a different stock firmware is part of switching networks, but is not requires on every device and not for every carrier.

Flashing the stock firmware will remove the system data that is associated to your device being activated on the Verizon network
[General Questions and Answers] Prayerwimp:
When flashing the device will the sim card be flashed also? Or will I still need to get a new sim card?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
The SIM and flashing have nothing to do with each other unless the device is being used in a different region than where it was originally sold/activated. You need to do some reading or call the support number for your carrier, you don't understand the process well enough to understand what I'm trying to tell you.

First, CALL THE CUSTOMER SUPPORT NUMBER, then verify with them whether or not your device is compatible with their network and can be activated on their network. You are wasting your time until you do that. Once they have verified that your device can be used on their network, then they can tell you how to get it activated on their network.

Don't "assume" that you can just switch to another network, make the phone call to customer support, that way you know whether or not you are wasting your time or not.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] QIQgame:
Hi all,

so after system update of OOS which ended up in a boot loop and losing the TWRP recovery (back to stock)

I was trying to get TWRP (back again) via fastboot I was able once to get TWRP loaded once and was even lucky to able to load the Nandroid backup "successfully".

but unfortunately, after restarting...nothing... always getting back to fastboot main screen with no success of booting normally or into recovery mode.

also, not able to re-flash the twrp.img to reach again for the backup.

is there another way to get back TWRP and load my backup file? by using fastboot commands?

I managed to fix it using a fastboot image https://drive.google.com/open?id=1fqvjJ-lC7w2wtcxYwlbmZ4pRW60psODV

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] nicb1:
Np. I cant remember exactly but i think it wiped the phone. You won't be able to restore that backup unless you happen to have copied it externally from your phone before the brick.

Let us know if you manage to get it all fixed and going again. Know its frustrating having your phone bricked. Pretty much brought it back to its factory shipped state from what I remember.
