[Huawei P20 Questions & Answers] MrVicious:
Hi.

After trying to upgrade my rooted P20 eml-l09 c605 with EMUI 9.x, I couln't get into recovery mode anymore (on button + vol up)

What I did was flash original ramdis.img and recovery_ramdis.img to unroot it, so i could upgrade it directly from the phone, but something bad happened so I couldn't get the recovey menu anymore.

Help please.

PS: (Bootloader is unlocked)

This message appears when I try to flash recovery_ramdisk

- Flashing TWRP recovery

[Huawei P20 Questions & Answers] Pfollvosten:
Where did you find the original ramdisk image from?

I need it too because i accidently flashed a TWRP version that doesent work
[Huawei P20 Questions & Answers] MrVicious:
I can't flash anything, even with the original ramdisk (downloaded from firmware finder).

I really don't know what to do.

My phone is an EML-L09C605, it is working and rooted.

Only I can get to fastboot menu.

I still haven't got a solution but, Is downgrading it the way to follow?

Help please.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Erdfeld:
Hello.

After 9 months with phone not being used i tend to have no mobile network or internet connetion on my XZs. From time to time i have some cellular network, but mostly there is none.

Could it be because i flashed my phone and unlocked the bootloader or might the antenna become loose?

I have checked my IMEI and it matches with the one on the box. I have also tried master reset, repairing the software thru xperia companion, reflashing original software and relocking the bootloader.

Does anyone have any suggestions how to fix this issue?
[Huawei P10 Lite Questions & Answers] benouh:
Hello,

I'm new to this forum, so please excuse me if this is not correct section to post.

I'm more used to Samsung and ODIN, first time i encounter this situation with Huawei

Here is the situation.:

Had to replace a LCD of a Huawei P10 Lite for a client. (WAS-LX1A model)

I did it, without issue...

Tested the replacement LCD (without glue it) display OK touchscreen OK

It went to the welcome screen asking for the PIN code to unlock the screen/

Ok so i turn it off.

Finish the replacement fix

Turning it back i got infinite loopboot ... showing HUAWEI logo , and rebooting all the times....

Trying to go to recovery mode holding VOL+ VOL- without success

The only key giving a reaction is VOL- going to FASTBOOT

This is the information i got the first time i went to FASTBOOT

FASTBOOT&RESCUE MODE

Please Connect USB cable to your computer and open HiSuite

( i did it but the phone is NOT detected in HiSuite,

but the phone is recognized on my Devices Manager of my Windows 10 laptop

under the name

KEDACOM USB DEVICE

> Android Bootloader Interface

so to continue what i had on my screen 1st time i went into Fastboot

:'(

I don't understand why i get the FRP lock, usually its when you format and try to bypass the password of the google account (usually occuring when trying to ovveride this protection with stolen smartphones...) but here its not the case.

A few minutes before the smartphone asked me to encode the PIN code of unlocking screen (for my client its not a schema its a PIN code) i just tried 2 numbers and i even not validated my input i just turned off the phone ....

Well anyway, no when i go again in the fastboot the message is different and is always this one now

What have i tried already ?

i downloaded a TWRP image of 22 MB , installed " Minimal ADB and fastboot " SDK

with ADB i can't see the device

with FASTBOOT i can list the device

C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot devices
2XJ7N17406000665 fastboot

C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>

but any other command (except fastboot reboot) fails,

...

finished. total time: 0.013s

....So what should i do next ?

Enabling the Developer Debbung USB option in the menu of the smartphone ?

How come ? the phone can't boot android so i can't access the options menu ..... :'(

Thanks in advance for you help

[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] DoR3M3:
I'm running OOS PIE 9.0.5 and I removed the OnePlusGallery and replaced it with SimpleGallery.

SimpleGallery is listed as the default gallery app.

When I take a picture with the camera, the small image on the right that appears, when I tap it, just above where it says; Video - Photo- Protrait, on the screen it will say 'No Photos' and nothing happens, it won't open the SimpleGallery app.

I was hoping I could use another gallery app and when tapping the image it would open.

Does anyone know if this is possible to get working?

Thanks

In order to update the confirmed working models for this guide, if anyone that has this device with a unlocked bootloader and does root and decrypt successfully using my guide and it's not on the confirmed device list. PLEASE JUST PM ME and let me know. Please include device model number, name, and if on aljeter your software channel version.( For example. Xt1922-5 aljeter, sw channel: retbr)

following the instructions exactly gets me into a really weird bootloop where my phone boots twrp, shows some log and then reboots and does the same thing over and over
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Kuntitled:
I have the same issue. I used the recovery steps to go back to stock but every time i re-attempt to root/install twrp the bootloop comes back:

Also, it's failing to mount /data after Resurrection Remix wouldn't boot and it keeps giving me the unable to mount /data (invalid argument) problem. I need help badly. Can you help? Is it the TWRP's fault?
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Spaceminer:
Are you encrypted? Because twrp will do that if you are. You have to use the wipe > format > type "yes" to continue method to remove encryption. Then reboot from twrp, directly back into twrp. Then it can mount /data properly, at which point you need to flash the encryption disabler. If you don't disable encryption you'll keep running into the same problem. You only have to do that once. After that you can use the regular wipe option. If you ever flash the stock vendor.img you'll need to do it again.

Also, please make sure twrp has been flashed to recovery. I don't think it'll work if you just boot through fastboot. If you followed all these instructions and magisk still refuses to install, or gives you a bootloop, then it's a ROM problem and not TWRP. Should that happen, let me know and I'll flash Resurrection remix and see if I can figure out what's going on. I've had ROMs refuse to be rooted before. Descendant ROM had this problem on some older builds.
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] blowingoff:
as for me: I followed the instructions which tell us to only boot twrp during the data format and only then actually flash twrp.

but my problem is no magisk, as I always root my phone whenever i revert back to stock. it's just that decryption is not working on my xt1922-5
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Spaceminer:
Do it like this.

1. fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

2. Use the volume keys while still in fastboot to select "recovery" then hit the power button.

3. Hit cancel at the decryption screen when twrp boots up.

4. In TWRP select wipe > format > type "yes" to continue. Do not reboot the phone yet.

5. In twrp select reboot > recovery.

6. Once twrp boots up again, select mount and check the boxes for /data, /system, /vendor, /cache.

7. Now flash the universal encryption disabler.

8. Let it boot once, then go back into recovery and flash Magisk.

This should solve your problem.
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Kuntitled:
My issue is as follows:

I had rooted my g6play months ago, back when pie came out on Ota for it. The guide I followed didn't have me disable encryption, which at the time wasn't a real big deal, with my only loss being the inability to do nandroid backups. But fast forward to now, when Resurrection Remix GSI came out, I was immediately interested as I think that rom could be a great experience.

So I decided to come here in this guide because I might as well disable encryption, right? So I flashed the new twrp and did get it to wipe and disable the encryption (in the option that has you type in yes) and proceeded to flash RR, it booted to the boot anima9and there it stayed for a good 30 minutes before I decided to try the older GSI image, maybe that one would work.

But nope, I immediately got the unable to mount /data bootloop and successfully flashed my stock rom and tried again, this time flashing the new twrp right off the bat. No avail. Now everytime i go into a freshly flashed twrp, i get no password prompt, and when i try to access the internal storage, it comes up as 0mb. Even my Linux complains that it couldn't mount my Internal storage as only the SD card shows up (weirdly enough I was able to successfully push dm verity and magisk to /temp no problem but they fail upon flashing)

Edit: gotta mention that after the first time I did the pull adb command to get the backups, the command refuses to work anymore. And also that I still have an old twrp backup stored (did that today before trying this)
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] blowingoff:
well i also couldnt make the backups, fastboot just tells me the file doesnt exist. and for the internal storage: while you are encrypted, that is how it works.

---------- Post added at 11:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:42 AM ----------

Edit: i can not mount data, twrp says argument invalid. followed your instructions anyway and my phone still gets me to a bootloop to a "running OpenRecoveryScript" again.
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
Go into the wipe menu, advanced wipe, check data and hit change file system. change data back to f2fs. When you guys format and don't immediately reboot straight to recovery, data sets to Auto and freaks out
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Kuntitled:
the multiple times i checked, the file system was always f2fs, but sometimes ext4

and also: Do you mean we should do that after we try to format with the format data (typing yes) option? If so, it doesn't work as the internal storage won't mount. Won't even show up on my computer
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
If you change the file system, it'll format, even if it says it won't mount. Changing the file system will force it to format. Even if it says f2fs, hit change and select f2fs anyway.

If it doesn't, format from fastboot, boot system once then go to recovery
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Kuntitled:
Alright, let me work through this.

I'm currently on a stock firmware and it's working fine.

Right now i have to:

1. boot into recovery twrp

2. change the filesystem of data

3. flash recovery and boot into it

4. format data(yes option)

5.check and change the file system again

6.reboot straight back into twrp recovery from recovery

7.flash dm verity zip

8.flash magisk

9.boot

Is this correct? and as for attempting to install a GSI image again, should i attempt to flash it before the verity zip and magisk? (i'll also be flashing micro gapps) or do i let it boot into system once and then i do it? (by wiping data/dalvik/cache/system)
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
Let's simplify. If everything is working,

go to fastboot

Flash recovery (boot doesn't seem to be working here)

Fastboot flash recovery twrp image

Select recovery, when the decrypt menu comes up, hit cancel

Wipe menu,

Swipe to factory reset

Go back to wipe

format data, yes,

Reboot recovery

Flash disabler

Flash magisk

And yes. Boot system then GSI flash, then factory reset before magisk

[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Kuntitled:
Do i check the file system for data at any point?
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
Only if it won't mount
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Kuntitled:
does it matter where i flash disabler, magisk and GSI from? I've been doing it from my SD card

No that's fine
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Kuntitled:
Data is set to emmc file system, won't mount and filesystem won't change at all and won't format

Edit: only happens when i try to change it to f2fs, changed it to ext4 with no issues and it mounts sucessfully with ext4 but won't let me format data

I get the mkfs.f2fs -t 0 /dev/block/mmcblk0p56 error 1, unable to mount data whenever i try to change to f2fs. Has my previous failed attempt at installing GSI **** with my filesys?
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
But data won't work as ext4, hence the boot loop

Try going to fastboot and typing

Fastboot -w

Then boot to recovery

[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] RodimusConvoy:
So, I had to do this to get back to stock. For those who don't know I deleted Chrome and Gmail and didn't realize Google integrated EVERYTHING at least on my phone.

So I did a full flash following the instructions in the OP, but minus what I just quoted. Now I can receive calls, but they can't hear me. Is it because I didn't use those three commands? Or was it the fastboot erase modem1/2 thing I was worried about?

Everything else works as it should...save Titanium Backup and my music player (GoneMad) won't "remember" I have it set to storage. One reboot for any reason they point themselves back to internal storage and I have to set them back to external (SDcard). I had this problem on both versions so I'm not sure if its a root problem or a G6 Play problem.

Both versions = out the box the phone was XT1922-9_JETER_RETUS_8.0.0_OPP27.91-35. When I did a full flash, I used the most recent version to date (Feb 2019): XT1922-9_JETER_RETUS_8.0.0_OPPS27.91-140-6. Besides a much better camera (well more options and looks cleaner), seems the same.

But anyway...why can't I hear folks when they call? How can I fix this?

EDIT: Ah I should reiterate I'm on Oreo. OREO. Android 8.0.0.
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Spaceminer:
Don't skip this one, fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin. Only skip the bootloader and gpt.bin. adspso.bin contains the sound drivers for your firmware. You always need to flash that to avoid problems.

[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Spaceminer:
I believe it's an app problem. Enabling "force allow apps on external" in Dev settings might fix it. If not, formatting your external sd as adoptable should provide a workaround.
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] RodimusConvoy:
Well fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin worked, I can hear now when I make or receive phone calls. :D

"Force allow apps on external" didn't work, and I'm not going the adoptive storage route. Ah well, everything else works, I'll deal with it till I get another phone.
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Spaceminer:
After enabling force allow, open the apps settings, then select storage and move it to external. I probably should've mentioned that. If you already adopted it though, I'd just roll with that.
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
There's a magisk module that writes apps to external too

This is a voluntary choice to go now before it get worse. No it's not a drug problem either. As for updates to the guide I will be removing the 32gb Oreo twrp and replacing it with the pie twrp as it's been discovered the 140-6 firmware for the xt1922-9 retus model will not decrypt after swiping right to allow modifications or formating and typing yes not sure why but that change will be done before I leave later today.

[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] madbat99:
Take care of your mind, it's the only one you get.
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] RodimusConvoy:
Ok here's the thing, I typically use my SD card as secondary storage for three things: pics, music, and my Titanium Backup folder. Beyond that I prefer apps stay in the internal storage. The adoptive storage thing seems bizarre to me (yes I know what it is) because IMO the drawbacks outweigh the benefits, but that's another topic for another day. Normally when I tell an app in settings to look in the SD card folder instead of the internal folder, it does and it stays there till I set it otherwise/re-install the app. So far for my browser (Opera) and gallery (QuickPic (Modded)) it sticks, but for Titanium Backup and GoneMad Music Player it does not.

It is possible it is just those two apps, but I found one instance of another G6 Play owner having the same issue. Like I said, if a solution can't be found (besides adoptive storage), I'll stick with it till I get another phone, either the G6 or the G6 Plus. Its annoying but from my perspective I could have FAR worse problems with this phone so glass half full and all.

Of note though: when you go into /storage you'll see self, emulated, and your SD card, right? Well my SD card (128GB Samsung) has some ridiculously long file name. I don't know if that's an issue, but when I put an old file card in (64GB Samsung) that had a shorter name I had the same problem, so maybe not. :confused:
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Spaceminer:
[MENTION=4755434]RodimusConvoy[/MENTION]

The really long sdcard name is because it's formatted as fat32. If you format it as portable using stock Pie, it'll change it to exfat and give it a regular name. The downsides vs benefits of adoptable, I definitely agree with you on. I only use it if I need a file larger than my internal storage can hold. An exfat sdcard can handle 4gb+ file sizes but I've noticed that apps have problems writing files that large to it.
