thanks but i cant get into fastboot mode only blinking led. :(
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] barrack1:
First, the rom is not from an official Xiaomi server. Next, the vol- button trick doesn't actually work since the next time you boot twrp, your user data will be erase. And the update failed on your phone because something on the system partition was changed or you booted into TWRP and set r+w permission.

You don't need to make any modifications, just mounting /system with rw in twrp will break ota.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] sergioricardojsj:
Dude, I'm just trying to help who wants help (I was in need before).

The ROM is not from the Official Website, I took it from a post here I don't remember which post. I'll search and drop it here.

The VOL - trick worked for me.

I never said I booted the TWRP, the phone was in fastboot all the time with .bat command executing the commands.

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] rexendz:
He already said he has no TWRP installed and obviously if you're using OTA, you wouldn't have TWRP whilst updating

So does this mean you can't update to january if you have an unlocked bootloader? I had magisk installed in my device, restored image and downloaded the update but it shows installation error. Then after that, I flashed stock pie 9.0 via fastboot from someone who decompiled the payload from OTA and kept bootloader unlocked and tried to update but still it shows as installation error. I have no TWRP installed.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lord_Waldemar:
Hi,

I've recently tested user profiles on android devices (samsung galaxy tab a android 8.1 and xiaomi mi a1 android 9) and they seem very hard walled from each other, yet the switching between them is surprisingly fast and easy. Now my question, could they be useful to isolate untrusted apps from the main profile that's linked to my online accounts? With untrusted I mean generally harmless but nosy apps from the play store (with a blank google account ofc).

Thanks in advance for your answers!

I've the same issue in Belgium with the Proximus phone network.

Updated with last WWE ROM and everything but gps was finie. I then decided to update ROM radios to see if I could get a better GPS signal. Since then, I've got with all radio ROMs a very weak 3G signal.

Any idea?
[Touch Cruise General] Rroet:
Search the forums people... there's been loads of complaints about "Reception difficulties" "Bad reception" "bad signal" ....

Might want to try this: go to your phone settings, switch the top phone option from auto to GSM and NOT to wcdma. This might fix your issue.

Lock this thread when your done.

Have you gone to Settings->Phone "Band" tab and set another of the 4 band options? (this is on the BEPE 0.67 ROM, not sure if it is on the release ROM though)
[Touch Cruise General] jandrews82:
Hi everyone. I recently got an o2 Orbit 2 on a UK pay monthly contract and just decided to start playing with some ROMS. I read all the instruction, flashed the ROM and everything appeared to work just fine except now, batterystatus tells me that I have 34% signal strength (which is normal for where I am) but I can't get a connection to the o2 network. I've tried every single radio rom from the collection listed in the Polaris upgrades area but nothing seems to work. So if anyone could help me I would be over the moon or if anyone has a copy of the original o2 UK radio rom that I could flash my device with i'd love to hear from you.

Cheers in advance.

Try Murata Radio Rom.. :D

Don't forget to backup your device.. ;)

Bcoz Murata will do hardreset :cool:
[Touch Cruise General] luchino san:
i had the same problem...flash murata radio and everything will be ok

if you don't want the hard reset just use udk's custom ruu or flash the radio from microsd renaming the ruu_signed.nbh in POLAIMG.nbh (your device must be hard spl and in bootloader mode).... micro sd must be formatted in fat32 or it will not work

you find all in the forum ;-)

Hi all,

I've been fighting with this for ages, is there a way to successfully restore email accounts after flashing ROMS etc. I've tried all sorts of combinations that I have found on the net but none have been successful.

If I use third party email app such as outlook or bluemail it works, however I'm having no success with the stock email app.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks

[Amazon Fire Phone] easy rhino:
So I had an unused Fire phone, and I began to run the BOINC app on it to do scientific computing for the common good. (http://boinc.berkeley.edu). I was running it 24/7 for a couple of months, just sitting on my desk at work in a charging cradle.

One OTHER thing I did... I noticed using the CPU Monitor app that as soon as the screen goes off, the Fire phone's CPU hotplug would turn off two of the CPU cores, and reduce the other two to 50% speed. This seemed to be triggered just by screen off, not by thermals or power or anything.

Well after seeing this thread:

https://developer.qualcomm.com/forum/qdn-forums/software/trepn-power-profiler/28094

I used ES File Explorer and root access to rename the mpdecision file. This basically disabled hotplug so all 4 cores ran all the time and they wouldn't slow down with screen off. (the clock speed would still decrease to stay below a certain temperature).

Maybe that was too much?

After a month or two I noticed that the case starting to split because the battery was bulging (first pic). If the phone wasn't plugged in, it would just bootloop. But if I plugged it in... everything still worked fine!

I ran it another few weeks, and notice the crack got gradually larger and larger. Eventually it was super split (second pic) and the phone just bootloops indefinitely whether or not it's plugged in.

so I'm bummed. I don't think I want to pay the $13 on a new ebay battery, and I don't think i'm up to the crazy ways to hardwire in electrical wires to run without battery.
[Amazon Fire Phone] dini77:
Sad story, but interesting. Sooner or later you were going to kill the battery because it is bad for Li-ion battery to be constantly at top charge.
[TouchPad General] shumash:
You've done a great job figuring that out HP_TOUCHPAD! As a result, if Sullins agreed (assuming he would even answer the request), the TPToolbox could be modified fairly easily to handle the latest ROMS, GAPPS, and RECOVERIES. For example, it turns out that there is an unused parameter that would allow TPToolbox to install the zipfiles without any checks. Additionally, it is simple to bypass having to install a GAPPS with the ROM, or to keep all checks but the one that checks for a compatible GAPPS..
[TouchPad General] HP_TOUCHPAD:
Thank you, and yes the ToolBox can be modified very easily only if JSullins agreed.

But there is only one section that needs to be modified to update the toolbox and make compatible with all ROMS now and forever. In my opinion there is no need for the Toolbox to install any ROMS as that is the work of TWRP to do and it does it well.

This is the only modification that needs to be done to update the toolbox and make it useful forever!

In the folder toolbox/bin/make_boot (open the script)

add the following under this line : (do_run cp /usr/tptoolbox/data/moboot /mnt/boot/uImage.moboot)

do_run cp /usr/tptoolbox/data/uImage.TWRP /mnt/boot/uImage.TWRP
do_run cp /usr/tptoolbox/data/android.default.recovery /mnt/boot/android.default.recovery
do_run cp /usr/tptoolbox/data/moboot.default /mnt/boot/moboot.default
do_run cp /usr/tptoolbox/data/uImage.ToolBOX /mnt/boot/uImage.ToolBOX

copy the files to /usr/tptoolbox/data/

uImage.TWRP

android.default.recovery

moboot.default

uImage.ToolBOX (this is the toolbox.bin, renamed it to be loadable from the moboot menu.

save the script.

I do not need to tell you "the Linux Guru" what is going on, but just for the record.

When recreating the boot it will install TWRP into boot and also the ToolBOX.

Reboot and now you have TWRP and also the ToolBOX in the moboot menu and you can install any ROM using TWRP.

This will make it super easy for all users to start fresh!

Complete reset (it will install TWRP, recovery by default) nothing extra for the user to do!

Reflash battery firmare

Resize Android volumens

Reboot and install ROM

I do not think it can be any easier for anyone than this and the change is minimal!
[TouchPad General] shumash:
I like what you're suggesting, but it's not that easy. I think you're creating a different application. The python scripts need to be modified to remove the "Install Android" option. Making users decide how to (re)install non-datamedia (DM) or DM ROMS by themselves was one of the things HPToolbox solved. I think that a better way is just to prevent all the checks that are done for three zips, gapp/rom capatibility, etc. and let users install the gapps themselves, although I can see a way to expand the allowable gapps dictionary to include the latest versions

Additionally, unless you resize /boot (which is fixed in one of the python scripts and may require lots of other changes), users who want to retain WebOS (there may be one or two left.:D) won't be able to install Android because there won't be enough room having uImage.TPToolbox there.
[TouchPad General] HP_TOUCHPAD:
Correct if uImage.Toolbox ( 11 MB ) file is copy to boot and TWRP there will be 8 MB left for one uImage boot file, only one OS will be able to boot.

That could be an option and does not need to be copy to boot, but it could make it easier for "Android only users" to have it handy and no PC will be required to load it again.

Here is another simple quick modification to avoid confusion and make it easier.

When you select Install Android, the USB media is mounted and a directory /ttinstall is created. At the same time the directory is created a shortcut (link) can be place of a landing web page where the links to all ROM and Recovery can be download from, that the user can click and download the correct Recovery, ROM and gapps.

Make it super easy and avoid confusion of what to install and where to get it from. It could be a landing page any where that can be updated.

This is another issue to think about. To load any uImage to fix a problematic TP, a PC is need it with novacom drivers install.

This is the command that will fix any TP:

novacom boot mem:// <

If novacom is not install in the user PC or not working properly nothing can be done.

Idea.

Create a basic Linux OS, bare minimum that will run anywhere. Have the novacom install and the toolbox in it, with a basic browser to get the files.

The Linux OS can be distributed as a Live CD (.iso) that can be booted on any PC. This will guarantee that the novacom driver will work and load the toolbox or any other uImage into the TP.

I made my own live CD of Ubuntu 18.04 ( is a 2GB file ) that has everything set up and do any kind of work on the TP and be able to use it on any PC.
[TouchPad General] shumash:
All good ideas, but this is much easier.
[TouchPad General] HP_TOUCHPAD:
Crazy complicated !

Take a very close look at the steps.

" 1) complete data reset"

Before this happens the novacom driver needs to be install. It used to be an easy one to do, but with new OS, windows or Linux it can get complicated. Nothing can be done unless this driver is properly install and the environment is properly set to load the uImage. This can easily create errors and frustration and not a successful install.

The universal Java installer used to work, not any more. It will be great to have a portable novacom driver, but I do not know if that is even possible to load and work in different OS.

But anyways doing the first steps is to load the Toolbox to do a complete data reset.

Well if the toolbox is modified, once the complete data reset is done uImage.TWRP will be already copy into boot.

The only thing you have to do is reboot the device select TWRP and do the installation as regular.

No more steps need it, and nothing else to download or install.

One step and done!

But now you need to run:

TWRP_TmpLoad_v03_win.bat

Then install TWRP, because is temporally loaded in memory.

What it does is loading uImage.TWRP using:

novacom boot mem:// <uImage.TWRP

The same way the Toolbox gets loaded in the first place.

If the Toolbox restriction gets remove then it will install TWRP, and then reboot.

Like I said the magic command is:

novacom boot mem://

Any boot uImage can be load it that way, but the only thing that will reset everything is the Toolbox.

[Android Auto General] santino405:
I see the same thing when using my Chinese dongle on my android head unit. I've played around with developer settings in Android auto and the settings on the dongle and nothing seemed to help. It seems to be something low level in the dongle (in your case the head unit or mod app) that causes this where moving the map seems to overwhelm to the system.

Using the same headunit and phone but instead using Emils' head unit reloaded application I do not get any sound issues, even when running in 720p mode.

It seems like the issue we're seeing is more to do with the Android auto implementation in hardware/software.

Using Windows 10.

When I run "adb devices," I get a result. I run "adb reboot bootloader" and the device loads the bootloader. I run "adb devices" while the device is in bootloader and I see no devices. I run "fastboot devices" and I see no devices.

Adb can see the device once Android has loaded but not in the bootloader. Fastboot can see the device never. I've tried from both cmd and powershell, both run as admin, no difference.

Try using usb-c to usb-c connection. If that doesn't work, instead of entering the bootloader from adb, try entering via the hardware.
