[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] Kineceleran:
Oh why did you relock it?

I made this mistake before

and i solve this problem by "Test Point" method

You can solve this problem with just EDL mode.

There is a video for how to get in to EDL mode.

[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] CarlosAG10:
I think there's a way out of there just by reflashing the boot image... It should be, but I don't know if it'll work after disabling OEM in developer options ... Big mistake there.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] kftX:
Yeah, that's how I killed a Redmi Note 4 once, I was in a hurry so I forgot to choose the non-relock option in MiFlash and then the flash went bad, rip phone.

However I've heard that this EDL trick that was mentioned seems to do the trick, so try that OP!
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] Crashex:
Thanks you so much. The phone now is ok! I flashed the last stock rom updated with the January fix. You saved my life. Thanks you so much?
[Moto Z3 Play Questions & Answers] Droid_Nut:
Can I just take the January 1st 2019 OTA, or do I have to relock and unroot my phone first? If I need to do anything, please provide steps.

Thank you
[Moto Z3 Play Questions & Answers] tb110188:
Are you rooted using magisk??? Then follow this steps:

Tutorial | Magisk - OTA Installation

Otherwise you will need to restore any backup of the system you should have done before any procedure...
[Moto Z3 Play Questions & Answers] Droid_Nut:
Well that went bad, when I went to uninstall magisk, and restore images it said there were none, so I did full uninstall, now the phone is boot looping to a robot with no command below him. I did do a full TWRP backup before hand, so not all hope is lost. So what do I do now?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Dext1011:
So my phone's fingerprint sensor just suddenly died on me Sunday night. Now I can only use face/iris scan so basically my note 9 just becomes an iPhone.

There's a message on the lock screen that says "Fingerprint Sensor is not responding. Please try again later". In the settings where you add or remove fingerprints there's a pop up saying an error has occurred. The swipe to drop notification function is also not working.

Note that this one day after I got the pie update in Malaysia. I don't know if that has anything to do with it. So far I tried booting into safe mode, wiping cache partition and factory reset, none of those fixed the problem. The *#0*# diagnostic result is not really helpful.

If anyone has ways to fix it so I don't have to go to service center cuz I don't have any other spare phone's to use.

I think you tried everything that can be done so you might need to let service centre look at it. Sounds like a hardware issue.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] DarthJe5us:
Hello everyone, i wanted to ask something about the note 9. (exynos)

Ever since i updated to 9.0 (csa2) it seems as if my animations stutter alot, especialy the app switcher animation. It is really annoying. I did a master reset when i flashed. I see CSA7 has come out, is there anything different in it before i download it from sammobile? My phone doesn't get OTA for that i don't know if it is normal.

Also when turning alarms on or off i have to wait a bit before i can turn on/off the next one. In the dialer when i select a number and press the call button i also have to wait a bit otherwise it doesn't start dialing.

I can post videos if that helps understand what is happening.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] raul6:
Although I didn't have any issues you mention when I had SA2, I think SA7 is an improvement over previous build.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] DarthJe5us:
Ok then i will install SA7 but i don't get it OTA, i installed France firmware because there wasn't one for my country and after reset it said it changed the csc of the firmware to my country might be because of that. Do you think i will need a master reset again?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] raul6:
I did't perform master reset only wipe cache partitions
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] high_voltage:
I flashed firstly over oreo csa2 - it needed around 10-14 days till it settle down and become smooth as silk. Then I wiped my phone and clean flash full regional CSA7, I also needed 10-14 days till it settles and now is smooth as silk. For the recents I found that it helps to turn off the recommended app thing, btw. So don't do anything, just wait and it will smooth out in 1-2 weeks.

Edit: also for now there is no csa2 to csa7 update... it will be newer one in February (this month) or beginning of March. The csa7 is newer for the regions that got the update late.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] DarthJe5us:
CSB3 is alot better so far but still not perfect. Hoping they fix it otherwise i will have to get an S10.

I would downgrade back to Oreo for now and save your money off the S10. Then again, I'm sure they don't mind people buying the S10 because of software issues on Android 9 Note 9.
[Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 Questions & Answers] cman245:
Can someone explain the reason that ARCore is not supported on the Pro M2? I also see a lot of camera apps listed as incompatible and I am assuming it has to do with no support for the Camera 2 API. Any ideas why Asus chose not to support these technologies and what (if anything) they will do about it? This phone which I just bought has less support than my 2 year old phone which supports both of these technologies. I feel like I moved backwards. Thanks in advance for any insights.
[Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 Questions & Answers] cman245:
No one knows? I have searched and searched and came up with nothing.
[Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 Questions & Answers] sanctitude888:
ARCore requires certification, my best guest is it's not free so it does not work well in keeping the cost low. From list of devices, they are mostly not budget devices. I wouldn't know for sure. Check out this link https://developers.google.com/ar/discover/supported-devices
[Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 Questions & Answers] cman245:
You may well be right but Google generally likes to make these types of things free so that they can get market share a lot quicker for any given app, tech, etc. Curious if a modified arcore.apk would work to bypass whatever checks it is looking for.
[Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 Questions & Answers] sanctitude888:
Other possibility might be the cost of hardware requirement to comply with Google's standard.

Is it ok?

And, if i wnat to install a custom kernel or rom, just reflash magisk after that. Correct?
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Cello75:
Dear Community -

after weeks and weeks researching and trying different things (DC Phoenix, Muhammad Tahir Waseem (thanks again - 4,- Euro for your help was low), flashing several partitions after PHONE = UNlocked/FRP=LOck due to DC-Phoenix, yet couldn't change bootloader to TWRP, cleaning all parts again and again with alcohol and then baking for 20 min in the oven at 50~70 degrees Celsius, reading many many different sites about bootloop problems, pulling (my new) battery off and pressing and holding power button, etc. etc. etc)

I HAD THOUGHT PREVIOUSLY MY PHONE WAS SOFT-/HARD-BRICKED OR WHATEVER :-/

°

°

BUT THEN :D

I thought today right in the morning:

'...What if some parts like those attached to mainboard would make a short circuit somehow while booting AND cause this type of crash ?? '

I had an idea of plugging off ANY device from mainboard (due to EMMC = OK, but phone still in bootloop - ) so i SIMPLY plugged off camera/front camera/ wifi antenna cable/ headset-unit and VOILÀ ... phone = booting yippiee!!

PLEASe donate (even 50ct) in case you like my thread and reply in case of help if you like :D

I also cleaned thoroughly EVERY cable / plug with some alcohol upon a cotton swab and then removed any type of hair or lint from them and there WERE some stains of corrosions - so in MY case it was the MAIN CAMERA - then piece after piece - I plugged in every device again - so FINALLY - I found it was that MAIN Camera that did make the 'short circuit' or whatever little capacitor or electric resistance for that main camera upon the mainboard - I had another Main Camera from the same model (VNS-L21 ) for P9 lite (or get it from aliexpress or ebay, please) and NOW IT IS ALL WORKING !! - INCREDIBLE, YET TRUE :)

Update: Solved, bought a samsung charger.

And the cable itself was also playing a role in charging failure.

These updates are just monthly security, so I don't thing they would mess with battery life or performance of the phone whatsoever.

The actual build of Pie didn't change from the first one in November 2018, just security updates and thats all.

They didn't even bother to fix the sound issue, that is mostly common reported one.

Regarding WiFi problem, mine works without problems from the day 1 on Pie.

[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Guides, News, & Discussion] barret95:
It's so strange that the WiFi works fine on some phones and doesn't work at all on the rest. It can't be a hardware issue since the Wifi works fine on Oreo.

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] clambert11:
I'm going nuts here. I can't get Magisk to install properly on a Pixel device.

1) Pixel XL (non-Verizon and unlocked)

2) OS - Stock Android 9.0 / Feb. 2019 - System Image just installed fresh

3) TWRP 3.2.3.1 loaded image via fastboot

4) Magisk version 18.1 installed

Issue: Device stuck at Can't load Android system. The only way to fix it is to install the Magisk uninstaller but then I still don't have root.

I tried removing my pin (read that in the thread) and the issue still persists. I also tried an older version of Magsik and tried patching the boot.img file with the same result.

Has anyone rooted a clean install of the Feb. 2019 Android 9.0 system image? I'm at a loss. The only thing I can think to do at this point is try an older system image and see what happens.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] sb1893:
I flashed the Feb 2019 Factory image and was able to fastboot boot TWRP and successfully install Magisk 18.1. Are you flashing TWRP (permanent install?) or booting it? You might try booting it only to install Magisk to minimize your variables. Have you tried reflashing the full Factory image clean to ensure you truly have a good initial install before trying to install Magisk? Platform tools up to date? Your steps seem to be pretty straightforward - so not sure what could be going wrong. Good luck!
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] clambert11:
I'm not flashing TWRP, just booting into it. My platform tools were a little out of date initially but I have since updated them. I think I was 2 major versions behind.

Guess I'll just do it again. I'll try it first without restoring data since that takes forever for me (lots of apps). Thanks for the info. It's reassuring that it should work.

If your platform-tools are r28.0.1

- fastboot flash boot boot.img --slot all

I have a similar issue. I have updated platform-tools and still get the unbootable issue with Magisk. I installed the latest factory firmware and didn't erase -w so it is a fresh install.

I am able to run Magisk uninstaller and everything goes back to normal (sans root, of course). Any further advice?

Z5 Premium not turning on

hello everyone,

PLEASE HELP ME!

My z5 premium was working fine.. battery was charged too, and suddenly it turned off, and it didn't turn on back again. I've tried all the different ways and solutions that should turn it back on:

hard reset didn't work

2 minutes hard reset didn't work

hard reset button didn't work

plugged it in using it's OEM charger and usb cable didn't work either and LED didn't lit up

plugged it in to the computer nothing happened, wasn't detected with no sign of life

I had to take off it's battery cover (using professional tools) unplugged the battery, connected the phone to the charger while the battery is unplugged, and nothing happened reconnected the battery back, and plugged the phone again to it's wall charger, and no sign of life.

i left it there all night long since the afternoon. and when i came back in the next morning to check if the phone is charging and the LED is lit up, but again NO SIGN OF LIFE!

(BTW, the phone is in mint condition and it was never been disassembled or repaired)

Please if anyone have an idea what this could be?

if anyone has encountered the same problem and went through the same of what I've been, and was able to repair it or find a solution PLEASE LET ME KNOW!

Now, I'm thinking of 2 things: either the battery is completely dead(damaged) or it's the mainboard which I don't hope to be.

PLEASE LET ME KNOW YOUR THOUGHTS ABOUT THIS!

Now, forget about any sort of software repair, as I explained above, the phone didn't succeed in that.

So, any help or suggestion would be so much appreciated.

Thank you all for taking time in reading and participating in this topic.

Have a good day.

- I recently had the same issue - or an issue in the same ball park. Phone Just died and refused to charge, but would show a red LED and try to boot when plugged in.

- Sent it to Sony, Hoping it is only a dead battery

The OP sounds like a they have a USB port issue or a board issue, also OP phone will no longer waterproof after removal of cover.

Unclear as to whether you have tried the following;

- Turn on whist holding camera button instead of Volume up/down. it is worth a try

- Try to grab an official sony charging cable- basically impossible to buy nowadays, maybe a PS4 controller cable? try it
[Xperia Z5 Premium Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heitz:
My stock unrooted Z5p died like this in April. Have the same issue as the OP and tried all the same solutions. My Z5p had only been used indoors for months with WiFi before sudden death. Replacing the charging port did nothing. Using the OEM cable and charger with a new battery gets a 2 sec red light when connected to power and starts booting up until the swirls (gets past Sony Xperia and powered by android screens). Then the screen goes dark and shows the big battery for a couple of seconds.

I didn't realize there was a sudden death problem with Sony phones until I started trying to fix this. What's even crazier is that I had (have) the Xperia Z, Z Ultra, and the Z2. The Z2 was used in the rain constantly and even survived an ejection from a handlebar mount at 15mph onto asphalt. (All these phones were rooted and using custom ROMs/kernels.) Seems like Sony has a serious QC issue they're not taking about.
