[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] kadu20es:
Hi, folks, how you doing? :p

Today, I'm gonna help you to update your MIUI without losing your installed apps and stuff.

First of all, you have to download the MIUI rom image here. Choose wisely, because there's just one version compatible with MI A2 and it is called MI 6X - WAYNE.

----------------------------------------------------------------

A few things before you get into this:

[!]This process worked to me and can work to you, however, I can not give any garantee of how you will understand it, so, if you follow these steps, do it at your own risk.

[!]You must have USB debugging enabled, an unlocked bootloader, a converted MI A2 to MI 6X andTWRP recovery installed.

[!]CAMERA2API: If you have had edited build.prop and renamed wayne.xml to whyred.xml, you'll have to do it again. I recommend this guide.

Requirements:

1) TWRP Wayne

2) ADB

3) MI 6X Wayne rom

4) USB Debugging, unlocked bootloader enabled in Developer options

5) Platform-tools

6) Compatible USB Cable

----------------------------------------------------------------

A few explanations:

The update process has two methods: one is known as "clean update". On clean update, all data in your phone will be wiped on the process and the update will give you a fresh clean device.

The other one process is known as "

dirty update

". On this process, only the OS files will be replaced, keeping all that garbage (apps, pictures, music, videos, cache, etc) we love in our phones.

Today, I'll teach you how to do a dirty update.

----------------------------------------------------------------

From here, I'll assume you already have ADB installed and working in your computer and TWRP boot image placed in ADB Folder.

1) Download MIUI rom and place it in your phone's internal memory

2) Restart your phone with Power button + Volume down until you see the Fastboot bunny

3) Connect your phone in your computer using the provided USB cable

4) In your computer (Windows), open file manager in ADB folder, hold SHIFT key and right click mouse and select "Open Command prompt here"

5) In Command Prompt, type

fastboot devices

and Enter - you shall see your devices ID

6) Type

fastboot boot twrp-[version here]-wayne.img

and Enter, your phone your will restart and load TWRP Recovery.

7) In TWRP, tap "Install", it will open file manager to you choose the desired file. Select it it and slide "swipe to confirm flash".

8) The installation process will start. Take a coffee because it may take a while.

9) In the end of the update process, tap "wipe Dalvik/Cache".

10) Tap "Restart".

Your phone will restart. The first boot is a little longer than the normal (+-3 minutes), but it is normal.

[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] kritonpc:
So, I have a P20 Pro which worked perfectly until last night. I woke up from the phone's alarm realising it wasn't ringing with my preferred sound. I opened the phone anw saw that all apps except the default ones were missing. I opened my gallery to check if my photos are there, and everything was ok. i opened instagram to see if it works(as it is one of the deafaults) and everything was ok. So I thought that maybe a restart would recover the rest of the apps. After restarting I had no access to the phone's photos, although I saw in the settings that there are 20gb free on the phone which was normal. I tried to open the apps and all I got was that the apps are not installed, which seemed really odd. So, I can't open any app, except settings, clock and weather(even phone doesn't open, although I can receive calls. I need these files very badly, as they are very important for me and I have no backup of them. I tried booting fastboot and rescue mode, but hisuite says that the device isn't supported for recovery. I also tried the eRecovery option, which lead to the exact same situation. Is there anything I can do to save those files?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] dansimko:
Hi,

Just received a notification that the Pie update is available. I am not sure wheter to update yet, as the releases tend to be a bit buggy at first. Hope they nailed it during the beta, but it does not hurt to ask, so I'd like to request some feedback from people already using the new FW regarding the overall stability, speed and battery life compared to Oreo.

Huge thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Bisquit-02:
Speed is fine, battery after a week better, some things are missing though from Oreo. Hopefully they get added with future patches.

Hey, i have a s7 edge that i attempted to root but bricked instead, it booted to the Verification failed, please factory reset screen. I tap Reset and it goes to TWRP. So i wiped System,data,cache,internal storage thinking it would work but i messed up the whole thing!!

I tried flashing the stock firmware via odin but it always fails on 'sboot.bin'. I don't know what to do. Please help. Smart switch doesn't detect the phone..... :(

edit: i have just found that sboot.bin fails because of a outdated bootloader? would downloading the latest firmware from sammobile work?? i really need the phone working as quick as i can
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Scorpionea:
Yea it could be the issue ,as u can't downgrade bootloader only update it with newer version.

Also if that doesn't help but hopefully will ,try nand erase and repit too.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Duckiety:
Yes. Updating the firmware worked, thanks!

[MENTION=7023217]Giovix92[/MENTION] Does this mean I can use any ROM that is Treble? Or have some restrictions.
[Asus ZenFone 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] iamROOTX:
Just the treble los16 zenfone3 on our forum for now
[Asus ZenFone 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] dVinsmoke:
But then I see no difference from a "normal" ROM ported specifically to a device. Should not Treble support be able to use them on several different devices?

For example, should not I be able to go to the AEX Treble download area and use it on ZF3? If it would not be the same as having to wait for a dev port AEX to ZF3.

I'm really confused lol
[Asus ZenFone 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] makorn645:
What do you expect? It's still in an early stage of porting. Some device specific bits still run from /system. GSI's may work but I doubt anything will work properly.

And I don't plan of supporting GSIs anyway.
[Asus ZenFone 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] dVinsmoke:
Being sincere I did not expect anything, since I did not understand anything lol This Treble left me was confused lol

So what's the difference of the Lineage Treble for a Lineage normal running in ZF3?
[Asus ZenFone 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] makorn645:
Currently nothing much ( updated proprietary bits + vendor image taken in place )

Maybe in the near future when everything is in place. I'll seperate Vendor image from builds ( noticable smaller updates )
[Asus ZenFone 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Giovix92:
Also, when vendor img will be split from the ota package, with (if necessary) some adjustments we can flash GSI ROMs easily. :)
[Asus ZenFone 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Williknot:
Great work guys!! Waiting for vendor partition, for some tests!
[Asus ZenFone 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Giovix92:
Well, repartition works fine. After repartition a new /vendor partition of 1024mb will be made.

Although, you'll loose your data (apps+personal). So make sure to do a full backup of your device.
[Asus ZenFone 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] fcbn98:
Feedback:

* HAVE A BACKUP. This tool messes with your partition table and is still unstable. Your data partition can be resized to the wrong size.

Will come back after a few months to provide more feedback. Appreciate the work guys.
[Asus ZenFone 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] [QS]:
Works fine for me, data is correctly resized even with multiple changes from normal to treble and back...

Can't seem to wipe /cache partition.

Anyone knows why?
[Asus ZenFone 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] makorn645:
A bugfix release will be coming along with the next LineageOS build.
[Asus ZenFone 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Giovix92:
Well, that's normal.

Since you're going to make a new /vendor partition of about 1024mb, /data should be deleted & recreated in order to give some space to the new partition.

Also, what do you mean with "can be resized to the wrong size"?

The tool is pretty stable tho. Can you give more info such as model (ex. ZE552KL 4/64), script version (ex. 4.3b) & other?

Thanks.
[Asus ZenFone 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Kaisogen:
I've successfully installed this tool, although attempting to install the new LOS 16 Android 9 ROM we have on this forum results in an error: 7, "Failed to mount '/vendor' (Invalid argument)"

From what I've perused so far in my research, that error mostly crops up on non-treble builds of TWRP, yet I definitely used the latest version from your website. I also redownloaded the latest version of LOS just to recheck, and yep, nothing's changed.

Any clue about what's going on here? I don't know much about Treble ROMs, or custom ROMing to be all honest.

EDIT: I have found the enable Treble option. Even when enabled and installed, after reboot, the /vendor partition cannot be read. It seems that after doing this too, I can't load files over USB, or mount my SD Card. I'm getting pretty confused as to what's happening. I can't boot into system, and fastboot won't connect to my PC.

you need to flash the phone, with original / factory raw firmware (Android Oreo)

read this guide --> https://www.asus.com/zentalk/thread-231025-1-1.html

and just download the firmware, and then using the Asus Flash tool, restore your phone to 'original Asus' firmware.

after that, you can also follow guide to unlock the bootloader & flash custom ROM

Hello,

In the past, I had unlocked Tmobile S4 , and Note 2 that were unlocked. I noticed that when using with Cricket sim card, both S4 and Note 2 had hostpot capability. Same with Sprint S6.

Can someone explain why unlocked phones from one company may have hotspot when used with non-native sim card.

A safe way to brick it: move a partition in MSM mode. The result was the "no bootable..." trick. I "resolved" it by buying a 920 with broken display and swapped the motherboard. Sold the bad unit... Months later I read that a developer ROM this could have fixed.

Hello guys, so after a month of using this phone, i encountred some problems like i can't find an option to hide the notch, or more importanly, i can't share or receive files using wifi direct, i can paire the devices but i don't have wifi direct as an option when i am about to share a file, and when the other device tries to send me a file, it just displays an error in the other phone, im looking for a solution that doesnt requires me to ask personnes to install extra software each time i want to share a file, can anyone help me please? im on miui global 10.2.

For notch you can use nacho notch, the system option it's removed since the first update of this year. On miui don't have WiFi direct, but you can use midrop. Midrop it's very good, but need to be installed on the receiver phone too.

Hi All,

In the best interest to provide clarity I'm creating this quick and easy tutorial on how to root your Razer Phone 2 after the Pie Upgrade. Please send me any feedback to improve this post, we need to build up a strong community.

*As usual, I'm not responsible of any damage or brick to your phone, do it at your own risk.

Pre-Requirements:

-Be sure to have at least 70% of charges... or plug your phone to power

-Backup anything you consider important

-Already installed Pie Upgrade via OTA or Side Loaded​

-Enable Developer Options

• Open Phone "Settings" and scroll down.

• You will see an option "Build Number".

• Simply tap on it 7 times to enable it on your Android Oreo based device.

• Your device immediately display a message on screen that will say "You are now a developer".

• The Developer Option is now available in the Settings>System>Developer Options. Enjoy!​

- Install Android Drivers (https://developer.android.com/studio/run/win-usb) and ADB, I personally recommend -[TOOL]Minimal ADB and Fastboot [2-9-18] - https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2317790

-Unlock Bootloader

• To enable OEM unlock, go to Settings > Developer options and check Enable OEM unlock

• Using ADB commands reboot on bootloader​

adb reboot bootloader​

• After reboot completes follow phone menus and select "UNLOCK BOOTLOADER"; accept all warnings, after restart you have completed the unlock.​

Root and Installing Magisk

Since our phone doesn't have a proven customer recovery fully working (Ex TWRP) Magisk needs to be installed by manually patching the device boot image.

Making leverage of Warrior1988 post [Root Magisk Pie Update For Unlocked Devices] all credits to him. Download the image from his post

• Boot in fastboot mode To boot into fastboot, press and hold the Power button + Volume Down Keys for few seconds; Copy the image on the same folder as your ADB and Run the following commands:

fastboot flash boot_a boot.img

fastboot flash boot_b boot.img

fastboot reboot​

Install Magisk Download the apk and install it as usual on your RP2, that should be all.

DONE!!!! You now have a unleashed the beast! Please send me any recommendations to improved this guide.
[Razer Phone 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] AbsoluteContingency:
Your link has everything necessary for this step, right? Direct link to version 1.4.3 is here: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=746010030569952951

Or are drivers and ADB two separate downloads?

I assume this is where we plug our phone into our computer?

For anyone dumb and new like me, I think this is with cmd.exe in Windows. Win+S -> type "cmd" (without quotation marks) and hit enter. Once open, you want to navigate to ADB, which you've already installed via the above instructions.

So your cmd will say:

C:\Users\YourName>

And you want to get to ADB, so you'll type "cd" (without quotation marks) which means you want to change directories, and then "cd adb" (if its in C:\ directory) or "cd [whatever the path is to the ADB folder]\adb"

Assuming it was directly in C:, you should see something like:

C:\adb>

Now you want to type "adb devices" to make sure it sees your phone is plugged in. You should see: "list of devices attached - [model] device" or something.

Now you're ready to go with the instructions starting at "adb reboot bootloader." If I'm wrong about this, someone less new and dumb than I am please correct me.

I'm confused on this one. The first one has "flash*boot_a," but the second one has "flash boot_b" without the * symbol. What does the * do, and what happens if we mess it up? Sorry if that's a dumb question.
