[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] Azyaan124:
Hello,

Firstly, my device is the Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 6GB Ram variant.

I was using the Pixel Experience rom as my daily ROM (I don't remember which build), it worked fabulously. But I hadn't updated it in a few months. So after enough procrastination I decided to update. I tried the regular software update method where you go to settings and check for updates, when it booted to TWRP recovery, it failed with an error. I thought it was because the update was the latest one and I was on an older build. So I tried doing a clean install by booting into recovery and wiping everything except internal storage. But the same error popped up again

I don't remember the exact error but it was an Error 7 and said something about the 'firmware version' required is 15.2016.1901.339 or newer. At first I didn't really get it and I kept trying again.

But after spending some hours it started making some sense and so I tried to install the required firmware. Even after doing so, the error kept showing up.

I thought it might be a ROM specific error. So I also tried Resurrection Remix (Pie version) but it yielded the same Error 7. This is the phone I use on a daily basis so I had to get it working somehow. So I flashed the stock ROM, the one that comes out the box. I flashed it using the flashall_AFT.cmd, I'm on the stock ROM now and it's obviously nothing like a custom ROM.

I also tried editing the updater script from the ROMs and deleting the part that was about the error (the first few lines). That didn't work either. The Error 7 was gone but another Error 6 popped up which said it failed to install.

I'd love to go back to using a custom ROM. It bugs me because I couldn't find any way to fix the error.

I'd greatly appreciate it if you can guide me step-by-step on how to install the custom ROM from where I am now i.e from the stock and fix the error.

I hope the above information suffices.

Thanks.

Most pie roms are base on the latest stock pie firmware, you probably need to flash that. Plus Ur twrp version is probably not the newest, all the links are available in the telegram group, and I'm not going to put them here out of respect for the devs. But .339 firmware is the Oreo firmware, I think the one u need to flash is the .050 firmware.

The telegram groups have them all and a little searching can give you all the links you need.
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] SauravKhare:
The latest Pixel Experience works great!

So you are on the Stock Firmware then.

1) Unlock the bootloader by Unofficial method (It will help when you want to relock it in future.)

2) Flash the latest TWRP Recovery.

3) Download whatever ROM you want to install and read all the requirements first! The error 7 you mentioned was the Firmware issue and could have been fixed by flashing the Firmware first and then the ROM.

GApps are not required for Pixel Experience as it comes with all the necessary Google Apps.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Pseudo_Soldier:
Maybe I could get some help, long shot but maybe. I have been flashing roms for quite awhile, on 5+ phones to be exact. I can get EVERYTHING to work and run perfect except fingerprint only worked on first custom ROM flash, now none work. At all. When I try to add a fingerprint, It brings up the fingerprint image on screen and even reacts to me pressing but it will not register a fingerprint. No errors like, "partial fingerprint" or "Fingerprint not recognized" nor any confirmation. I've fastbooted back to several versions of OOS(9.0.11,9.0.12,etc.) on both partitions and tried and tried. Nothing. It still works 100% on stock. The weird part about custom now is when it tells me to setup a fingerprint, it says its located on the back of the phone but I remember my first custom flash said it was on screen.

I know the support is still new for custom with FP but nobody seems to be commenting these issues. Is it normal for right now?

Any support appreciated! :D
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] SilentEYE:
Did you solve your problem?

Which custom rom are you trying?

Did you flash the stock rom from the fastboot Rom Zip with the flash_all.bat way?
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] ogkillergreen:
Before you flash a custom rom you should check the features lists/search the thread.

Most devs post in the OP if fingerprint works or not. And 9/10 the question has been asked and answered in the thread a few times.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Pseudo_Soldier:
I've done the flash_all_partitons.bat to go to complete stock. And nah it's not fixed, just living without it for now. I'm on luisroms RR build. I've tried I think just about all of them, no go.

And I have checked features and comments, why I'm posting here in questions, not in rom threads. All custom roms support FOD fingerprints now. Just not my phone it seems.

Weirdly TWRP can't decrypt my data on custom roms at all even though they support it. Thinking something the fastboot flashes don't touch is messed up somehow. Idk
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] cinnesere:
I am having the same issue on the current Candy ROM. Screen flashes as if capturing a fingerprint but never does. FP is supported according to the dev and no one that I saw had this issue in the ROM thread. FP reader did work with OMNI and stock, of course. Thanks in advance for any help!
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] manimal_2k:
just wondering....

can I take any rom, rename it to HERAIMG.nbh and flash from memory card?

I flashed just2clean rom like this and was wondering if i could just pop all my roms on a memory card to play with on the road or reset in case i screw something up

hspl of course
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ttran001:
I've been able to flash most of my roms with this method, just rename each one to a different name until your ready to flash it then rename it back to HERAIMG.nbh.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
Yep. I always keep the last working ROM as HERAIMG.BAK and rename it to HERAIMG.nbh whenever I flash a bad flash. ^_^
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] N3xt2N0N3:
i flash all my roms this way even if my battery percent is lower than 50% but i put on the charger at first!!
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
Ditto, but usually I like to have at least 30% battery. It won't charge WHILE it's flashing, but it will flash while booting up afterwards.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] dugryce:
I've been a Note Officianado for YEARS...and suddenly I'm being tempted by the One Plus 7 Pro 5G as a possible replacement!! I feel so guilty for even THINKING it...but I can't seem to shake that nudge of curiosity and temptation to have that "next new thing"! Somebody please talk me down. Tell me I'm insane for entertaining the sacrilegious notion of leaving the Note Family! TALK ME OFF THE LEDGE!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Phazonclash:
Give it a shot. If you're like me you'll come back at some point anyway (see my signature). Nothing bad in giving other manufacturers a shot from time to time, it's a good opportunity to understand where Samsung is lacking/needs improvement, and to realize all the things they get right and the Samsung features you're missing ;)

I'm not a OnePlus fan, but the 7 Pro seems to be a pretty great device. They finally seem to take care and give importance to the small details and refinement their phones were lacking in the past imho (finally a great display, a better vibration motor, better build quality, the cameras seem better too, etc.)

If you really need a reason to not switch: The Note 10 will be an even better phone when it launches this fall
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Moe5508:
DITTO that...look out and hold out for the Note 10 rather...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Deleted member 7436581:
S-Pen. That's the number 1 difference-maker for me. As far as a daily phone goes. It's always going to be a Note. Using an S-Pen to interact with my display has always been the most efficient and fastest way.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] recepo1:
Im in the same boat after watching the reveal of the OP7P. The only reason i womt switch is because i know i will definitely going back to get the Note 10. The camera is essential and it still looks like the OP7P isnt better then the Note 9 camera.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] dugryce:
I watched the launch, got all excited, then found out it doesn't have wireless charging and it's not waterproof rated!

Can anyone else say, DEAL BREAKER?!?!

'Cause I sure can!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] abtekk:
IIRC OnePlus were avoiding getting it rated because of the costs involved, but were still going to make it waterproof anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] gruuvin:
YouTube videos have hyped you up! How is it better than a Note 9? Only the screen's 90 Hz refresh and fills more space. Compared to the Note, screen is not as bright and run-time between battery charges is terrible! Then there is no wireless charging or waterproof. If you have come to like a lot of the features you get with a Samsung UI/apps, you will lose that too.... and no s-pen. You won't get Dark Mode until Android Q, while Samsung OneUI is doing integrated themes now. The Note 9 is about $635 right now, so the OPSP is not cheaper either.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] oasisman21:
Op7p has most of N9 problems such as curved screen, mediocre battery life and average camera. It also lacks some good N9 features such as headphone jack, wireless charging or spen. I doesn't make sense to swap unless you are bored and just want a new toy.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Goku80:
Not gonna lie normally I go for the latest tech. But nothing in the op7pro or even the s10plus makes me want to leave my beautiful device. And I shall be honest not even the note 10 will make me want to upgrade. Don't see the point no more. If it is working why break it.

[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] AlwaysFresh.:
Which of the two should I take?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] mannat07:
Snapdragon as i have exynos and i have seen many comparisons in which Snapdragon is ahead e.g. Snapdragon has better battery and performance
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] mistermidas:
If you want to root, then Exynos. If you don't care about rooting but want overall (midly) better performance, get a Snapdragon.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] BuPL:
I dont think you will notice any performance gain or loss at all, but SD has slightly better performance, yes.

Other than that, I've seen people saying that SD has better battery life but head out to the battery optimisation thread. Exynos' battery can last over 15h SOT and I have not seen SD users come close to that.

Exynos users have a dedicated and improved night camera mode for about a month but SD models dont have it until now, but certainly will get it soon enough - I guess it's easier for Samsung devs to work on Exynos models, but other than that both have exactly the same features working amazingly.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] regod:
Snapdragon is better than exynos in every cases. SD models have also camera imx sensor which is tottaly better than isocell sensor from exynos.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] Hazzay88:
I think Snapdragon variant is a much better buy as it is advantaged in many ways. Battery life, performance, camera, gaming to name a few. Also the SD is built on a newer more efficient architecture.

Samsung should just drop the Exynos all together and just stick with Snapdragon
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] galaxys:
I'm good with the S10 Plus Snapdragon! But, I did like the Note 9 Exynos variant.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] rajeshr:
I've had both versions and the only difference I've noticed was that the SD version had better battery life. Testing may show that one variant may be faster than the other, but it is not really noticeable in real-world usage. But the better battery life is definitely noticeable.

I've unisntalled battery charge limit! That's all!

Since, no more wrong battery stats or something like that : 50% end of life, roller coaster 20-2%, auto battery charge 10->40%....

I hope it will be the same for all of you!

for FOTA, you have to wait more time
[Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 Questions & Answers] DemonMonkey112:
update it through the asus website. even i had issues with my FOTA update, when ever i went to my system updates it used to say its up-to-date and then after a while i got a notification saying FOTA stopped working or failed. I contacted the Asus customer support and they said to update it manually by downloading the file from the website. I just mainly wanted the update for the camera2api. Manually installing the updates works. I think the FOTA is bugged or something.

Heres the link

https://www.asus.com/in/Phone/Zenfone-Max-Pro-M2-ZB630KL/HelpDesk_BIOS/

go to the BIOS and Firmware tab and download the file named "Version WW-16.2017.1903.064". This is the indian variant.

transfer it to the internal storage of your device and unplug the device from your laptop. as soon as you unplug you should be getting a notification saying a new update has been found. click it. it will first verify and unpack the file before installing the update.

THE FILE SHOULD BE TRANSFERRED TO YOUR INTERNAL STORAGE, NOT YOUR SD CARD!!!

Hope this solves your issue!

I have a Samsung S8 Active and I'm getting incredible upload speeds but average download.

I'm on the largest and fastest mobile carrier here in Australia, anyone got any ideas what might be causing this? Always thought DL should be the same or faster than UL?

Weird thing is you can see the download speed spikes quite high, then it just plummets.

On a similar issue in a different location I had my mate who is on the same network carrier sit next to me at a shop. We both ran a speedtest, he has a Google Pixel 2 (on specs the phones are almost identical, mine should be slightly faster). His hit 100Mbps+ for download while mine only hit 52Mbps.

[Moto Maxx Android Development] linuxsociety:
Hello, I am currently working on a way to exploit the bootloader for the XT1254 (Droid Turbo) and the method will probably work on all quarks if I successfully achieve this. Right now I have been able to successfully downgrade the bootloader to version dated 2015-04-05. I think there are a few exploits that work for this older bootloader however at the moment I'm stuck because the System.img is from Nougat but the bootloader is from pre-nougat and I can not flash a working gpt.bin that I have found. I need some other devs to jump on board to submit any info they might have that may help us at achieving this much desired unlock for the verizon variants. I feel it is unethical to be forced to pay $25 to unlock this particular device. It would be completely fair to send donations to the sunshine project, but since we have not had an alternative for the last 4 yrs, its time we resolve this issue and work toward an open solution for the newer devices as well. Thanks for anyone supporting this and any help pitched in!
[Moto Maxx Android Development] Einsteindks:
$25 was money WELL spent! Especially on a 64GB Turbo!
[Moto Maxx Android Development] ChazzMatt:
ALL other Quarks -- except XT1254 -- ALREADY have free Bootloader Unlock code from Motorola. I wrote INSTRUCTIONS thread about it:

https://xdaforums.com/moto-maxx/general/guide-how-to-unlock-moto-maxx-moto-t3455341

This is why all the other Quarks (XT1225 and XT1250) had TWRP and custom ROMs before Sunshine team managed to unlock the Verizon variant.

PLEASE, don't even mention the other Quarks in your scheme for the Droid Turbo XT1254.

Disclaimer: your tablet warranty will void. Proceed with your own risk

Warning: your personal data, except on external SD card or USB drive, will be wiped during the process!

Prerequisite:

Host PC installed Samsung Smart Switch

USB C cable

Your tablet battery should be 70% or higher and you have done data backup

OEM Unlock enabled

1. About tablet

2. Software version

3. Hit Build Number few times

4. Enable USB Debugging

5. Allow your host computer

6. If you don't see OEM Unlocking, wait for 7 days or do the following trick

https://www.xda-developers.com/fix-...y-s9-samsung-galaxy-s8-samsung-galaxy-note-8/

Are you ready? Let's do it.

1. Turn your tablet off and disconnect USB cable

2. Press and hold both volume up and down buttons and connect to host computer

3. You should see factory reset screen, but this time you should see one more option. Press and hold volume up to unlock the bootloader.

4. If you see a warning screen on boot, the bootloader is unlocked.

Currently I am still finding how to make patched boot and post update later how to root.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] Magendanz:
John Wu, the developer of Magisk, already has an excellent guide for rooting the Samsung Exynos devices here: https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/samsung

(Just ignore references to the Bixby button.)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] mingkee:
The only issue is to find right boot. I couldn't find from sammobile
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] mingkee:
I followed his guide except there's no bixby button but something goes wrong.

Even KNOX tripped, I don't see root no matter how I try.

***** update *****

This time I started all over and patched AP with Magisk provided in the link and this time it worked.

Press and hold both power and volume buttons to turn it on. Release both buttons when the screen flashes briefly (it bypasses bootloader warning) and you will enter system with Magisk.

Unlocking with Linux?

This thread is the only one I see that describes how to unlock the T510. Unfortunately it requires the Samsung migration tool (why?) and it doesn't exist on Linux. I've tried hooking up Heimdall 1.4.2, but I only see the download mode screen. I can either flash something or restart. I got the PIT from the device now, but I don't see a way to unlock the bootloader. Can it be done with Linux?

Well, I decided to go verify the OEM unlock switch (which I ticked yesterday successfully), and it was unset. I just re-set it, and I have the unlock option. I don't need to have the migration tool on my computer, thankfully.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] MossyTC:
[MENTION=284079]milsabords[/MENTION] From the Nexus Stock ROM thread -

What I actually said earlier was that you should be holding down the volume buttons when you connect.

To be clear, and as per the OP -

DIsconnect the cable

Hold down the Volume buttons and keep them held down until after the next step

Connect the USB cable from the tablet to the computer (which should be on at this point)

You should see the factory reset screen
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] lewmur:
I'm not sure [MENTION=284079]milsabords[/MENTION] understands that the vol button is NOT a "rocker switch", where you press one end or the other, but TWO switches where you CAN press both ends at the same time and, while holding both ends down, you plug in the USB cable. There is no need to press the power button. A green screen will appear and then you release both buttons and follow the on screen instructions.

edit: And, BTW, you didn't have this problem with the T58x because its bootloader was never locked.

i hope u didnt buy a carrier model that cant be unlocked lol
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] thex2:
Another prerequisite, at least for me anyways, is to update the operating system on the tablet first. I bought my tablet brand new and tried to unlock the bootloader. The Smart Switch software did not recognize my tablet when I go to the unlock bootloader screen, so it wouldn't do it. I had to boot back into the OS and update to Android 9. After that, Smart Switch worked and the bootloader unlocked by following the directions in OPs post.
