That may be because TWRP isnt compatible with your firmware versin (which is expected).

If you just want to boot your phone without TWRP, that's easy as you know. Change the slot to a working one.

But if you want to boot the slot with TWRP, you should try this:

fastboot flash default boot partition of SAME android version to SAME slot using NOST. Change the slot to this one. the phone will boot now.

Update to latest security patch (as it's confirmed to be compatible with TWRP) and flash recovery. then do whatever you want...

Inform the results.

I have tried slot a and b, with b it can go to fastboot or boot into older TWRP that can't decrypt or write on my SD card. (and backup with TWRP)

If I switch to slot a (--set-active=a), which has the original one it goes to powered by android and then Nokia logo, sits there until the battery runs out, I can't turn it off no matter what I press. :(

Can I apply latest SP with TWRP, hmm since it says my password in wrong I can't boot into it or read it, I guess I have to delete everything. :eek:
[Nokia 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] rashazad:
1. to turn the phone off (in any state) you can press all three buttons at once for multiple minutes.

2. I have not seen such an application. you just need to flash stock boot image. What android version and which SP were the phone on?
[Nokia 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] iMaterial:
It was " Android 9, Pie 00WW_5_15GMR and SP (Pie 9)Oct-1924, October 24, 2019."

I have some stock boot images, but they are all v4.88 SP00 - SP06 for Oreo.
[Nokia 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] rashazad:
These are stock boot images:

Stock Boot

You can see october sp there. fastboot flash it to partition_a:

fastboot flash boot_a "image name.img"

IF that doesnt work (which would be very odd), these are stock roms:

Stock ROMs

the file NB1-5140-0-00WW-B05.full.zip is pie. you can extract boot image from it.

I have not downloaded it to see if it is a nb0 image (very likely to be) or zip file. either way, reply if you dont find an easy way of extracting.

Nothing works, I can only get fastboot, nb1_515g_b01_oct stock recovery and TWRP 3.2.3-0 and -1 to work, boot is still stuck and "Nokia" logo. I wonder if I should try and flash Android 8.1 nov v4.88B SP06 since that worked before. See if I can only flash the /system part of it, or do I need /firmware also.
[Nokia 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] rashazad:
What do you mean by

?

What exactly did you do? you should install nb1_515g_b01_oct and boot the phone. leave TWRP aside. dont flash it at all.

if you flash any full rom by NOST, you will losse everything and the phone will be working. But we are trying to fix it before that last solution.
[Nokia 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] iMaterial:
Yeah I figured that out when I saw the partitions in TWRP, which is in Slot B, that it would write over everything. The stock Boot 515G is in Slot A, or is not that not possible. :rolleyes:

Let's see what partitions we have on Nokia, they come as:

Boot

system

system Image

Data

EFS

efs2

Persist

Modem

fsg

DSP

Bluetooth

Boot logo

I guess I can flash some of those with fastboot flash and see if it works. :p:silly:

Should I flash the stock boot to slot A and B?
[Nokia 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] rashazad:
We dont need to (and shouldnt) do anything with those partitions at all. as I told, you just need to flash stock boot image to the partition with android pie. that's all... the command is mentiond above.
[Nokia 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] iMaterial:
I have flashed boot a or b with 515G and tried, I'm starting to think there is something wrong with my /system part, because all it does is hang at Nokia logo during boot or goes to Fastboot. :mad:

I have not been able to find the full ROM of 515G B01 Pie yet, only some earlier ones. :rolleyes:
[Nokia 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] rashazad:
There is not significanat difference between Pie versions. Although flashing 515D on my phone recently, I was required to update (1.5 GB). And be aware that flashing Pie (515x) using NOST is not possible (at least without some strange tricks).

Flashing system partition results in loosing all your apps (and probably contacts ,SMSs and etc.)

Latest SP

Can I use this TWRP on latest Security Patch of Stock Pie ?
[Nokia 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] iMaterial:
Since I only been using the N8 for testing a week, I don't have any SMSes, contacts are in gmail-account. Maybe since I have the pw I could DD the /data partiton and try to figure out later how to get things out of it. :silly:

It's said that the latest TWRP from this thread works with the last SP, right?
[Nokia 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] rashazad:
Since nothing is important to you, everything is possible :)

I remember testing it recently. It was working perfectly. But I dont seem to recall which SP it was on... Maybe January. If you test it, let us know the results too.
[Nokia 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] iMaterial:
I scrapped it all, so I flashed stock recovery 4.88 SP04 Sept, then the whole ROM "N8_Android_8.1_nov_v4.88B_SP06", from there it updated all the way to "WW_5_15G_SP02" (1 April fool's patch 2020).

Now I tried the OP's TWeRP 3.3.1-0 :silly: on it and it boots fine. So now I have TWRP on slot A and Stock 515H or I on Slot B. :p

So, yeah it seems to work on April 2020 SP. ;)

I just don't know why the old thing didn't boot on the slot with stock boot, that didn't have TWRP. :( It should have.:confused:

Thanks for the TIPS and help, BTW!

I tried TWRP installing magisk zip, but the phone get stuck at "Phone is starting" after you boot and type the pin in at lockscreen. So I deleted the modules in TWRP.

Is there a working magisk or SuperSU for TWRP and SP April 2020? :rolleyes:

Edit: After removing magisk modules dir in TWRP I reinstalled them both in magisk manager and then it worked fine.:good:

Yes it's work perfectly on latest SP april 2020 .. thanks
[Nokia 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] matta-m0t0:
This looks great!

I have done some research, but I still don't understand: what is the use case of this?

We can change the font, but I thought a custom ROM would enable that functionalitty?
[Nokia 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] iMaterial:
It's so you can actually use TWRP 3.3.1 on latest SP for NB1 (Nok 8) and Pie.

Mine has been working great now, for a while now, it works like a charm. :cowboy:
[Nokia 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] matta-m0t0:
Thanks for your answer!

But what extra possibilities does this give us? We can only install new roms from here, but I don't see the benefit of having TWRP when no custom ROMs are available?

That is true, I mostly used it to install magisk ROOT and do backups.

That is great effort. I'm not a developer (I used to be, at the age of X10mini!), but as I (like everyone else here) can see, there is some problem in reading system/etc at the first place. Where that might be related to, is an very interesting question!

When I flash with command "fastboot flash boot twrp-3.3.1-0-NB1.img" it gives me "fastboot: error: Couldn't parse partition size '0x'."

I also tried getvar and flash to current slot_b with "fastboot flash boot_b twrp-3.3.1-0-NB1.img" but I get the same error.

I can't even boot the img with "fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-0-NB1.img". This command runs without error but the phone stucks at "Powered by android" after the unlocked bootloader warning.

Stangely at this state it still responds to fastboot commands.

The phone is on version 00WW_5_15G_SP03 (lastest OTA with July 2020 SP). I've only used stock firmware with OTA updates until today I just unlocked bootloader with official method (fastboot flash unlock unlock.key; fastboot oem unlock). Also tried unlock critical but nothing changed.

Should I try an older firmware with NOST? Can anyone help?

Hi, could you provide me January 2020 SP OTA for TA-1004, need to extract the boot.img because want to restore to stock recovery
[Nokia 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] AtomiX1984:
I am in your same situation, i donno why i run the flash command

fastboot flash boot_x twrp...img

after I try to boot with the original image of twrp from fast boot and it is succesfull flashed, but now from slot A I can only access the recovery, I think that I brick slot A, slot B works with all stock.

---EDIT---

After I get in that situation I try to flash the version of [MENTION=9309516]THMSP[/MENTION] and now i'm able to boot in to stock rom normally, now I get twrp installed in to slot A and stock recovery on slot B.

I think I will keep this situation until I do not understood better what is going on.

There is an April 2020 SP OTA in between, I have neither the January or the April one, yet. I also need the boot.img.
[Nokia 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] kevmar240:
Soooo... I successfully unlocked my bootloader with the official method, I wanted to install TWRP from the official site, but booting the image before installing won't work (stuck at android logo). Does this version work so well, that I can simply flash it and then install Magisk and what not? I come from times, where rooting was more straightforward, so reading about slots is already pretty confusing when trying to go back to it. I'm on a TA-1012, Android Pie, latest Security Patch from 1. July 2020. Any hints and help is greatly appreciated!
[Nokia 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] emufan4568:
The A/B slot system is certainly different from the old A only system. The only thing you have to keep in mind is that in A/B phones there is no recovery partition so the recovery is fused in the boot image. It is up to the developer to pack the recovery in the boot image. If you are wondering yes this image is safe to flash in the boot partition with fastboot (fastboot flash:raw boot_a /path/to/boot.img) you do not have to boot it. fastboot boot doesnt work in the Nokia 8 bootloader anymore so it is pointless to make a recovery only image.
[Nokia 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] kevmar240:
Thanks! I now successfully installed TWRP and rooted with Magisk. Works like a charm! The change to A/B Slot System is really interesting

i read everything from the start and all the development, so here we are and i want to confirm full step, as the OP mentioned, with the help of umbrella kernal, the wifi capability wont break as it is integrated into the kernal. so question is this image contains the kernel and doesnt need to flash the kernel separately right? and just need to flash the new image after every SP?

here are the steps in going to perfom.

i have unlocked bootloader twrp and magisk on Oreo 8.1.0

1. update OTA to the latest Pie and Sp

2. flash this latest twrp img and flash magisk to gain root

3. flash this IMG after every Sp

i am missing something? or this is everything? or does the kernel has to flashed at some specific time or separately?
[Nokia 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] emufan4568:
You are correct, with the umbrella kernel wifi won't break anymore because the wifi driver is compiled into the kernel. You just need to flash the image once and forget about it, no need to reflash it after every security patch as there won't be any more :). October 2020 is the last SP Nokia 8 will receive
[Nokia 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] rockstar.007:
Kernel is in the img mentioned above? No need to flash it separately?
[Nokia 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] emufan4568:
The kernel is contained in the boot image in both A only and A/B devices. You don't need to install a seperate kernel. Because the Nokia 8 is an A/B device the boot image contains the recovery too. So this TWRP is boot + kernel + recovery.
[Nokia 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] rockstar.007:
fastboot flash boot twrp.img is giving fastboot parse partition 0x error, what to do now? what command is safe to use?
[Nokia 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] oaid:
use older fastboot, like v29, as starting from 30 something changed in the tool and there's that 0x error.
[Nokia 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] rockstar.007:
my wifi wont turn on after flashing the kernel
[Nokia 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] emufan4568:
In fastboot > v30 you need to use the :raw tag to flash the boot image:

fastboot flash:raw boot_a /path/to/boot.img

I recommend reflashing with newer fastboot it might fix your problem

Hello, I've fully unlocked my device and flashed T-Virus 2.0, everything went well and it booted me into the TWRP window. I wanted to update TWRP so I flashed the TWRP-3.6.1-A12.1-NB1-Enforce.zip file, (and did not press the wipe dalvik button) but upon entering the recovery it gets stuck on the TWRP logo. If I boot into bootloader and try

fastboot boot TWRP.img

Hi all,

Am relatively new to Linux and am trying to gain S=OFF on a HTC Sensation XE.

Am searching everywhere I can think of for the file:

ControlBearRelease_pyramid_GB_LINUX.tgz

Obviously the unlimited.io site no longer operates as is few years ago, have found a windows version as such on a site in australia, and multiply references and links relating back to the original site. The file name came from waybackwhen archive, amazing site, am looking there also. Have been trying to understand if there is some sort of trawler but may be getting in to deep water so to speak.

Current state of play is:

Temp Unlock at HTC website

Clockworkmod Development

Fastboot + ADB

Have tried Rumrunner but could not find updates I think.

Have tried a Windows ControlBear through Wine in terminal, but couldnt read deamon.

Am connecting from a Toshiba Satalite Laptop, running Ubuntu 18.04.

Have paper clip...

So looking for this file...

Am thinking to, on this probably 'Retro', but still viable phone, to possibly try a custom ROM, such as: LineageOS, Paranoid Android, Revolution, Etc. depending on what I can find. Really to play with phone, as sort of learning process. But then am thinking to try and to install postmark OS or such like.

Would be really grateful if anyone could direct me to a source or link and/or any other pointers/advice would be also appreciated,

Sorry my brains a bit frazzzled, hence the corrections.

Allbest,

Matt

Hi,

I just bought a new HTC 10 one from ebay and updated it to Oreo

but it is draining over night when powered down (completely off).

It loses approximately 50% of a 100% charge when off for say 10 hours.

Is there any possible reason other than a duff battery?

Thanks

Steve
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Mr Hofs:
I would leave it on at night and monitor the drain overnight, that would be much more interesting because you will have all OS info at hand. How much it drained, what apps caused it and if it's even the same to when it's switched off.

Reverse thinking ?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] baneybo:
I did the same (new HTC 10 from eBay) and had the same problem: it would lose its charge over 5 hours whilst doing nothing. Chatted to HTC Support who got me to run tests and concluded there was a problem.

Too late to raise a case on eBay (30 days, I think), but raised a case via PayPal (180 days). Vendor replaced the phone without problem, and touch wood, it's running OK.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] brimhaynes:
Interesting, I wonder if it's the same seller. They sell as new, but I am sure they are not.

One had a corrupted filesystem and wouldn't update to 8.0, that's not a new phone.

I had to reflash it in order to update (love these forums!).

Currently, I've just sent to China for repairs for the second time - I'm expecting a cheap replacement battery to be fitted.

I've actually given up on it and bought a new Nokia 7 plus, now that's a lovely phone.

No more ebay phones for me.

Hi

How did you do the update; ota, update from SD, with the lenovo moto smart assistant or flashing twrp compatible image?

I updated my XT1641 with the update from SD method on the default recovery first but ended up boot looping.

Then used the repair mode on the lenovo moto smart assistant and that not only "fixed" it but successfully updated me to the last Oreo... Till I realized I had the same issue you are describing.

Had to unlock the bootloader, install TWRP and then flash a compatible image of the stock ROM.

It is now working, although I think some secure apps like the Microsoft authenticator are not logging for me because of the unlocked bootloader.

Was trying not to do all this and waiting patiently for the stock update but now that I did, I'm probably going to move to another custom ROM, probably a newer maybe x64 one if I find a daily driver worthy one
