there been rumors for awhile about them also being sold unlocked in europe

in which case apple will have to give warrenty

as far as unlocked iphones people are now buying these "hi-phones" which they're making claims are better than iphone to begin with... haven't seen a 3g version of it though
[General Topics] Menneisyys:
It depends. 4GB storage is plain insufficient in a multimedia device. This device has been killed on the drawing board.

And if the GUI will be as slow as on the videos, it'll be really hard to use.

Of course, I don't disagree the Diamon has a lot more apps. It's just that I also have an iPAQ 210 in my poxket so I have something high-end to run my WinMo apps on- my phone doesn't necessarily need be a WinMo phone. This is why I have a Nokia N95 as my generic multimedia phone right now.
[General Topics] daleksic:
Yeah, the unlock iPhone rumor, is just that a rumor. Trust me, my friend came to visit me here in US with his Austrian iPhone and he ended up with one of my old Nokia phones while he was here as the iPhone was locked. He asked for unlock but Tmo will not budge on this one. Any other phone they will send you the SIM unlock codes wihtin 24 hours. Besides TMo Europe and TMo US are 2 complete separate units and for some reason they are not communicating that well with each other. That's unfortunate, they could have an awesome worldwide network.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] noom4_5:
Hi,

So I followed this tutorial https://oneplus.gadgethacks.com/how...thout-losing-root-no-computer-needed-0192638/ (but I used more up to date downloads links than what was on the article) to update my phone to the latest oxygenos on my OnePlus 6.

The install went well, I could reboot on my phone without problems. The thing is when I ran magisk manager it said that magisk wasn't installed. So I rebooted to twrp and flashed again magisk then rebooted. Now when the phone rebooted and asked me for my pin number it automatically went to "Shutting down phone" and rebooted to twrp. So I flashed the magisk uninstaller but it didn't rebooted well. Then I thought I had to switch the active slot, so in twrp I switched to slot A. Then it rebooted on fastboot. I understood I did something really bad so I ran "fastboot --set_active=b" on my computer.

Now my phone cannot actually boot and everytime I get in twrp except that now it doesn't ask me to unlock the phone to decrypt it and just asks me if I want to get into twrp in read only mode. When I navigate to /sdcard, it is full of weird folder name which is because, if I understand well, twrp has failed to decrypt it.

Is my phone bricked? Can I recover data? Can I repair my installation?

EDIT: if you need more informations that I forgot to give don't hesitate to ask.

EDIT2: I tried to reboot to fastboot mode and issue on my computer "fastboot boot twrp-3.2.3-1-enchilada.img" to see if the official twrp could decrypt the data (I'm currently using bluespark's twrp). I get the following error: "FAILED (remote: unknown command)". I understand now I'm pretty ****ed. Right now I'd only like to recover my data (mostly hundreds of pictures) and then flash a stock rom (except if it's actually possible to repair the system and boot normally). How can I decrypt /sdcard if twrp can't do it?

Thanks in advance for your help, I'm pretty lost right now and it's quite an urgent situation.

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] noom4_5:
Ok so now by restarting a couple of times to fastboot I successfully booted to official twrp using "fastboot boot.img" and it successfully decrypted my storage!!!

Now I think things are recoverable, how do I fix this bad boy? Reflashing last official oxygenos image could work?
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] only4dank:
Once in your booted TWRP from 'fastboot boot twrp.img' ... Flash OOS (9.0.5 from xda forums), flash blu_spark-TWRP, reboot TWRP... Now you can root your phone (flash Magisk), flash a kernel. All should be good.

I would suggest in future, use these forums for download links, tutorials, and check this Q&A forum (literally 3-5 posts on first half of page 1 with similar problems. Just follow instructions to update if you don't know how (they are always on first page of the thread where you get your downloads from).
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] noom4_5:
Thank you for your answer, everything's back to normal :)

I'll make sure to follow the official tutorials next time.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] thejase:
Good advice. I'd also like to add so everyone is aware, it's a good idea to disable all magisk modules before an update. Also disable your lockscreen pin, fingerprint... Basically any security. You can always re-enable these once updated. It just makes for less complications when updating. I'd also recommend downloading magisk modules outside of the app and keep them in a folder called magisk modules. That way, if for some reason magisk didn't retain the ones you downloaded after disabling and installing an oos update, you don't have to rely on your memory to look up\install them.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] only4dank:
I never disable/uninstall Magisk modules. Nor do I disable lockscreen pin, fingerprint.

Theres no point at all. If flash things logically (correctly) you won't reboot your system without non-stock recovery, or no root.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] thejase:
There absolutely is a point. Many people have had encryption issues in twrp when updating. In addition, I myself have had a magisk issue where one of the modules wouldn't run properly when updating to pie and as a result, it didn't boot. Using a terminal magisk module uninstaller in twrp to disable the module fixed the issue. This is merely advice to eliminate all possible failures when updating. If it works for you without doing these things, mazel tov, but this is for those that have had issues and want to minimize the odds of that happening again.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] only4dank:
Fair enough. But moving from Oreo to Pie is a little bit different then Pie OTA updates. I have 6-7 modules recently in Magisk - and never uninstalled Magisk or removed modules while updating Android Pie.

When I came from Oreo, I did a clean wiped system. To me, that makes sense - because it is a dramatic change in the system (whereas OTA updates for same android version are pretty minuscule).
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] ante0:
The only module I had to manually remove, because OOS refused to boot after an update, was "OOS Native Call Recording Enabler".

And before I knew that was causing it... I factory reset, then everything was fine until the next update xD

I even made a Backup/restore magisk data script, but seeing as it backed up/restored that module too it would still refuse to boot after an update.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] thejase:
Same. But if you install it with version 8.0 after the update, it works again. Just f.y.i..
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] wwwryan:
Can you tell me which TWRP image you used to get past this issue? I have tried both 3.2.3-1 and 3.3.0-0 several times with zero luck this far. Thanks!
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] wwwryan:
Answered my own question but wanted to leave this here for others just in case it is helpful. Using twrp-3.2.3-x_blu_spark_v9.91_op6.img I was able to fastboot boot the img file and this version of TWRP offered to decrypt. From there first thing I did was adb pull my entire sdcard to my PC for save keeping.

My issue was a result of restoring from an earlier backup to recover some data. I had recently updated to 9.0.5 but accidentally deleted something I had no backup for so was restoring a previous TWRP back from 9.0.4. After the restore I couldn't boot the OS and all official version of TWRP would no longer offer to decrypt my data. Of course, I could not restore the backup I had just taken either since it was encrypted on the internal SD card. From now on I will just take TWRP backups to external storage via OTG USB and not even risk it.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Asiier:
Happened to me a few days ago

You can NOT recover your data. But you will be able to fix your phone.

Just do a Factory Reset from TWRP (Wipes Everything) and a wipe of system etc

Then just sideload or put the latest OOS back on the phone and install it.

Trust me, I have tried everything for trying to recover and decrypt the data... Somehow our phones did change the Encryption Keys from /data/unencrypted so there is no way to recover unless you can get the same key out of luck of using the encryption algorithm and salting process that Android uses.

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Mdknight:
I've done this a few times. Actually... every time I update; save for the last two times. Just two notes that you already seem to have figured out:

1) Always remember turn off your active modules. (Just turn them off, you don't need to uninstall them.) Simply doing that seems to have fix OTA issues for me. I try to do it before I even download the update and definitely before I install it.

2) No matter how badly I foul up (except for the first time), I never wipe it when trying to fix it. Just side boot Blu Spark TWRP and flash the OS again. Boot it up once without root. Then go ahead to side boot Blu Spark TWRP again to root. I never install TWRP to the device at all. Even with Blu Spark, it seems to get iffy with me. If I want to flash something, I just let it wait until I'm home so I can side load Blu Spark.

[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] Soforid:
Good Morning,

Friday night I downloaded the new EMUI 9.1., the official version, and I installed it during the night.

I used my phone all the Saturday but it was extremly slow. I swiched off my phone several times but it never helped me.

At some point in the afternoon, the phone is reseted alone and I have not been able to use it anymore.

The phone only resets itself: it turns on, reaches the blue screen that says "Honor" and resets again. It can not be turned off.

I tried to do a HW reset (power off + volume up) but nothing happens: it reaches the blue screen and it resets again, and again and again...

The only interaction I can have is with the "Fastboot & Rescue mode" screen. Here I get the error: AP_S_Abnormal 64.

Phone Locked FRP lock.

And nothing more.

Would someone be so kind to help me or give me some recommendation/advice of what I can do?

Thank you
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] buntspexxt:
From where did you get EMUI 9.1?
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] oslo83:
I think he meant 9.0 and not 9.1

So because :

- your device reboot itself to bootloader mode because 'AP_S_Abnormal 64'

- Phone is Locked FRP lock

- you don't manage to enter recovery mode to do a full wipe / factory restore

You could :

- download and use a dload package with an sd/card or an USB-OTG flashdrive in dload mode.

- or use Honor service center help

- or try again and again to boot right to recovery mode to format.

- or try erecovery restore via wifi in erecovery mode

- or try Hisuite Restore option

I think they all will restore your device to factory stock, meaning the actual user datas would be lost...

---------- Post added at 14:51 ---------- Previous post was at 14:45 ----------

Pro tips to enter recovery mode :

-USB must be unplugged (not plugged to computer)

-Hold VolumeUp key BEFORE device vibrate first at boot and keep holdind UNTIL you are in recovery mode

-Try again to reach 'recovery mode'

I updated to 9 through hisuite because no OTA update was found . tried it and rolled back to 8 cause they removed image stabiliser fron video recording .

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KenMishima:
So I've been trying to get ADB up and running properly so I can modify some aspects of the Android OS to fix the phone's Wi-fi Hotspot feature. Android OS is version Oreo 8.1, and Windows is Win 7 x64. Already had Dev Mode enabled on the phone with USB Debugging.

When I downloaded the Android platform tools and tried to execute the ADB via command line, I get an error message [I had a link to an image showing it, but due to me being a new account it won't let me post it, but basically it's an error message that appears when you try to launch an app on Windows without having the VS 2015 or newer redistributable files installed which have the Win10 compatibility files necessary for it to run] which means I don't have either the 2015 or later version of the VS Redistributable installed. Unfortunately due to this Windows installation's MS Package Updater being borked, I can't really install those either to fix this (thanks MS) without doing a bunch of **** I don't want to risk at the moment.

So the question is, does anybody know of an older version of the SDK Platform Tools that only require VS 2013, and if it would be compatible with Android 8.1? Thanks.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KenMishima:
Gonna give this a quick bump but I'm basically just asking if anybody knows where one could get an older build of the SDK Platform Tools (command line tools only, not the full package) that only requires VS 2013 to be installed to run.
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] huawei_shithead:
This is most likely a stupid question for one reason or another, so first of all please excuse my stupidity.

I am trying to install OpenKirin's LineageOS 15 for my P9 and two obstacles are in my way. The first one is that for some reason according to their instructions I need to update the device to EMUI 8. My phone is currently running EMUI 4 and it won't update any further in the settings app. I have to install it manually, but I can't find the right firmware for my build number (EVA-L09C150B130). A developer on xda has published a tool for finding model-specific firmware and it finds many different results for "EVA-L09C150B" with varying three digit numbers after the B, none of which match my "130". Will it work if I just download one of them? If not, how can I find the right firmware for my device?

I also need to revert back from TWRP to the stock recovery as per OpenKirin's instructions. I installed TWRP following the instructions of another guide that turned out not to apply to this specific situation. Are stock recoveries the same for all huawei phones and, again, where can I download it?

Thanks in advance and apologies if this thread is a double, I searched but couldn't find anything that answered this specific question.

Hi,

does anybody use EdXposed module for Magisk?

I flashed Riru core v18 and EdXposed v0.3.1.7_beta in Magisk.

If EdXposed v0.3.1.7_beta magisk module is activated, mobile data does not work? Is anyone facing a similar problem?

The problem is definitly with EdXposed, since it does not matter which Riru core version I use. If I use EdXposed v0.2.9.9_beta2, then mobila data works, but this version of EdXposed is really buggy.

[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] a1291762:
EdXposed is a magisk module. If you disable Magisk or EdXposed then the system will boot again. Flashing/booting the vanilla boot image is one way to do it. You could then use Magisk app to disable EdXposed.

Another way is to start TWRP and use the shell to modify/remove files in /data. I don't know the specifics of this, but the mm (Magisk manager cli) module puts a script in /sdcard that allows managing Magisk modules from TWRP.
