This report is broken up into two parts, OpenEmbedded and Android. These are the two operating systems we are using to run a battery of tests in order to find regressions in the kernel as new patches are added.

The general list of tests that Linaro runs can be found at on our website, but unfortunately I can't yet post lists in these posts on XDA so I have to leave it at that.

When we look for regressions tests often fall into 3 categories of results. Pass, Fail (a regression, exactly what we want to find) and Known Failure where there is a past history with the testcase. Often known failures are flaky testscases that need to be fixed.

Hello.

I did something wrong while trying to flash TWRP on my pixel 2, I am now stuck at the bootloader, and I cannot boot System or Recovery. While at the bootloader screen, it says Device State : unlocked. If I try to get to download mode, it says "ERROR: Operation Denied". If I try to go into recovery, it says "ERROR: Slot Unbootable: Load Error". If I try "Start", I get the same error message.

Also, adb or fastboot don't seem to be able to "see" the pixel connected to the computer. I believe my cables are good since I was able to flash Magisk and reflash the whole system with them before bricking it.

Can anyone help?

Thanks!

I missed that thread while researching this issue.

I will try these things when I get back from work next week.

Thanks again!
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] atifaslam7:
Just as a reference for anyone else who needs the fix and can't be bothered opening another thread.

SOLUTION: At the menu where it is stuck and saying device fail etc, plug in your usb cable to the mobile, press and hold the POWER button for 10 seconds, it will now recognise your phone under fastboot.

Once that is cleared, it's pretty much straightforward flashing latest pixel 2 image via fastboot and problem solved.

sidenote: Issue came with anyone who tried to flash december security updates and above as of what I heard.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] stanelie:
I will try that, thanks.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] stanelie:
So, several things :

Holding down the power button had no effect other than restarting the boot menu, but Fastboot never became available.

Opening up the phone and disconnecting the battery and reconnecting it made Fastboot available again. This would be in line with other users that let the phone battery discharge completely before regaining fastboot access.

Sidenote : opening up this phone is not for the faint of heart. I managed to damage something on the motherboard doing so (probably a static electricity discharge), the screen ended up displaying gibberish. I was able to salvage my phone by replacing the motherboard. I had ordered a replacement motherboard when I thought all was lost with no fastboot, and I had it on hand. Expensive little sucker...
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] : gobioTester@gmail.com:
Same thing happened to me except I never even tried to root. Just pulled the phone out of my pocket, and the little Android dude was belly up. It's showing device locked - and although I had it in Dev. mode from weeks back (thought USB Debugging was enabled) it fails to respond to adb commands, boot-loader mode, etc.

...Looks like Google laid an egg with this one.

Pixel 2 - "ERROR: Slot Unbootable: Load Error"

If you get the above error you will find that you cannot boot into recovery and the phone stays in the bootloader screen each time you try to start the phone. If your bootloader is unlocked you might be able to recover your phone to flash a stock image and revive. My problem started when I tried to restore a nandroid backup after trying out Android Q beta 1. I got the error mentioned above.

Most of the people recommended that I get a replacement from Google support as they had tried everything but it didn't work. Well right here in XDA Pixel 2 forum there is a solution waiting to be used. I am reproducing it from the post titled

"December factory image seems to have broken fastboot enumeration"

Quote

A possible way to resurrect a bricked Pixel 2...

Hey guys, I have just been able to get mine alive. The device started to be recognized (USB/fastboot) after about 10 unsuccessful attempts to start the system: "Start", from bootloader.

So what exactly happened and what I did:

1. Bricked a Pixel 2.

2. It started into bootloader and showed the "slot unbootable" error.

3. The device was not recognized by any of my machines at all, lsusb did not show anything new in the system, and, respectively, fastboot did not see the device.

4. The default option in the bootloader is "Start" if I remember correctly. So I just pressed the power button and did not release it until I noticed a vibration. It were about 10 unsuccessful attempts of system loading before that vibration.

5. Right after that vibration I connected a generic (NONAME) USB-C <-> USB-A cable to both the device and my Linux machine, and fortunately the device was recognized by the system and fastboot was able to detect the device correctly. So I flashed the a factory image, and it went just fine.

Unquote

Let me confirm that this works. I kept the power button down while the phone was connected via USB to the PC for at least 5 mins. During several reboots suddenly I got a beep from the PC which indicated that ADB was working. I flashed a stock image and voila the pixel 2 is back in operation.

Hope this helps several other people who might have this problem.

If the boot loader is locked look for a script for unlocking the bootloader from recovery or bootloader state. I did find it but cannot remember. My bootloader was unlocked so I did not have to use it.

Have you ever wanted to write bold, italic or even underline text on Twitter or other messaging service ?

If so, I think you either gave up on that idea or you've been on many website that can format your text into bold one like it's magic.

I did that too and I knew we could retreive selected text and then do certain actions with it, but going to the website everytime I wanted to write something in bold or else was annoying, so I created this app knowing not much of Android development.

So old HMP is used by Sony for their SD845 devices, or is this "workaround" only applied upon their official shared AOSP sources and blobs?

Could in that case explain the increased power consumption, becausr HMP is a leeching sucker compared to Energy Aware Scheduling / EAS.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
I ask them if there are EAS plans. :)

Edit:

No plans, seems they don't like it. :)

Edit1:

Seems that with the other stuff in the kernel the EAS would lead into a battery drain.

And that the AOSP is battery optimized without it. :)

Ediit2:

They don't hate EAS.

It was just a decision at a time where other parameters lead to this decision.

Maybe they switch to EAS in the future. :)

Edit3:

EAM Energy Models are needed.

And because it's very hard to get one EAS may never get implemented.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] xlucian:
It's been a while since I've rooted. I do install custom recovery and custom firmware but haven't had a real reason to root as well (mostly because banking apps tend not to work with root, sometimes even if using hide root apps).

My questions is...what do "kids" these days do when having root? You just do it for the sake of it or actually do something that benefits you/your phone?

When googling about what to do after rooting, most links/post are for backup (titanium etc) , ad blockers and some xposed frameworks...but...what else?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] TexasHoldemJoker:
Same as you, to give myself a hard time with banking apps

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] CoreyOS:
Substratum, XDA Navigation Gestures (ROOT Mode), ES File explorer for debloating, Viper4Audio (Unbeatable EQ - Main reason), Button Mapper for Bixby button remaps and changed my Emoji fonts to iOS11.

Once you have rooted and seen benefits of it all, it's super hard not to!

I went 4 days thinking I cannot root my S8 as didn't wanna break it but that didn't last at all lmao...

Also, my banking app works as normal under Magisk Hide.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] xlucian:
Every phone I had ended up rooted, some from day one and used the root mostly for what you've listed, especially for ad-blocking to edit the host file or using adhell on samsung phone . But, for some reason...didn't see the point to root my S8, and had it for almost 2 years now.

Substratum works on unrooted S8 (al least on Oreo did, haven't check on Pie...dark mode is OK--ish).

Blokada for ad-blocking does the job great without much fuss,.

Bixby remap--I think there is and app for that.

Viper4Audio and any other custom EQ - if you don't have high quality earphones/headphones you don't really see the benefits.

Youtube ads---since youtube vanced appeared ... no more ads.

Debloating-there are some heavy debloated roms around, I think.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] callumbr1:
Titanium backup, substratum, viper are the only reasons for me
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] CoreyOS:
I use Adaway too forgot to mention. I have also changed my DNS to 1.1.1.1 with HEBF.

Also, yes there are debloated roms but this method makes it possible for you to debloat the official software without flashing a custom rom (even if it is stock based it's heavily modified)

Bixby Remap is pants compared to button mapper also, it has a lot more features / options for button mapping. (Including vol buttons)

To be fair I forgot to mention I'm using RiCE 13.4 and I even had to debloat that after unticking pretty much everything in the AROMA installer. (SoundAlive, stock launcher had to be replaced / removed)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] meduza:
[MENTION=1642133]xlucian[/MENTION] ,

you're absolutely right, there are not many reasons to root our S8. To be honest, it's the first time for me not rooting for such a long time. I've the phone since November 17. Usually I rooted immediately or a few weeks after buying.

But adblocker and theming are working without root and there is no need to change to custom ROM since the original has plenty of nice features, that I would miss with a custom ROM and we getting regularly updates as well, so I don't see a reason too (so far ;) )m.

Does anyone know of any Mi MIX 2 kernels that support using the device as an HID keyboard? Looking to get an app like Authorizer working to send a password to a device, but it looks like the most recent details for Android Keyboard Gadget are about a year old, & for kernel versions 3.x.

Pretty much just looking to use my phone as a keyboard without needing any software on the device I'd like to use it on.

Longer version of why I'm trying to do this:

I have Xubuntu running on my Surface Laptop, with the modified kernel to get the keyboard working. Unfortunately, the keyboard only starts working once the OS is booted, so I cannot use it to type in my Disk Encryption password. If I could get my phone working as an HID keyboard, send the password when I connect, I could then continue to use my laptop as normal until I needed to restart.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] tejado:
Had you any luck with it? A first look into the LineageOS kernel for the msm8998 revealed, that you probably don't need to patch the kernel as it integrates FunctionFS/ConfigFS. You would need to get root on the device and then configure HID over it.

The bootloader that is currently installed on your device probably won't allow downgrading to an older stock firmware, this is very common thing with Samsung devices.
[General Questions and Answers] noelbisha45:
So there isnt any other way to flash another bootloader right?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
You aren't understanding, it is the current bootloader itself that prevents flashing a downgraded bootloader. You can try flashing an older system.img but you can't flash anything that contains an older bootloader than the one you have.

There is no way to downgrade the bootloader to allow flashing TWRP or anything else custom.
