Ok so I was having boot loop issues with this phone until by one miracle it managed to start up somehow. When it did I went into the settings and realized the WiFi had no longer worked. Then I realized there was no MAC address for the wireless and it wasn’t detecting any wireless networks. Then all of a sudden it reboots again for no reason. It just keeps rebooting, goes to the home screen, then about 2 minutes later it reboots again. Is there anything that can be done to save this phone?

[General Questions and Answers] Getsu:
I look and look and look, but nothing! If an app requests a certain permission I KNOW is unnecessary for the app to work correctly and turn it off, 80% chance the app will refuse to continue and instead keep saying that you need to give it permission.

Do we have control if we tell one app, "no, you cant have my permission to get my location so that I can look at wallpapers!" If the app refuses to let us see wallpapers because we wont give it those priviledges? Does a wallpaper app really need system permissions? Does it really need access to my contacts so I can view pictures?

If you look for an answer to how to deny an app permissions while still being able to use the app, you will only find how to turn off the permission and not how to keep the app running without those permissions. Do you think you have propper controll of your game counsel if the manafacturer can force it to deny you being able to play your games? So app permissions does not give us full controll.

My Question is this, How can I give an app suedo permissions that make it think it has access to those attributes when it doesnt. Kinda like a sandbox. Or is there a way to modify the apk to remove the permissions check of the apps? TY

Question: Does rooting the device prevent me from receiving OTA updates? Do I have to "re-root" after each OTA update?

Background: I used to be really into custom roms, TWRP recovery, Xposed mods....back in the days up to the LG G2 and Nexus 6. So I am super rusty on Android changes in the last 5 years. I am now coming back from iPhone jailbreak land. I just ordered a 7 Pro directly from Oneplus.com and super am excited. I spent the last 12 hours reading up on Android related info. I plan to unlock the bootloader and root the phone right away so that I can #1 enable native tethering, #2 system-wide adblock, #3 youtube adblock.

I would like to stay close to stock as possible to receive OTA updates. The only thing more important to me than OTA is being able to #1 enable tethering. #2 and #3 are nice to have, not must haves.

I'll be using this device with T-mobile in the USA.

Your help and patience would be much appreciated. Sincerely, thank you.

I want to use native tethering (if it works) so that I can enable Tasker automation - turn on wifi hotspot while I am in the car. Although I like this option as well. I could connect to my home OpenVPN server.

Thanks. Sounds like I can just quickly reflash the two files in succession and I am good to go?

5+ years ago, doing this sometime causes problems when the version difference is very significant. For example, going from Android 9 to Android 10 OTA, I would have to wipe user data and start over. Not sure if it's still true today.

I just got this phone and I'm not sure if I changed some setting or it's the way it is, but I'm not getting notification sounds through speaker if bluetooth headphones are connected.

It wouldn't be too bad if my headphones (Sony SBH24) would not have that stupid slow gradual volume increase after silence, so short sound notifications (such as Hangouts text message) just doesn't play as the volume too low at the beginning.

Also, I'm not always have them in my ears.

Is this a "feature" or a setting somewhere?

Good day, I just received my OP7Pro. It does come with a clear case which is nice to show off the Nebula color. But at the same time, I picked up their Bumper Case. They also had a 'protective' case which I skipped in favor of their own Bumper case. But, to those who may have seen all three - which one offers the best protection? Or is it better to get an after market case? I only ask as the Clear case included seems like the same protection as the Bumper case and it is clear. But I could be wrong with shock absorbance qualities to the bumper case. Your opinions are greatly appreciated.

Just another update, someone else had asked about pre-installed apps from Three and sadly there are a couple:

Netflix (Shows an uninstall option but doesn't uninstall, haven't tried with root but that should work I would guess)

"Three", presumably an app to administer your account (That can be installed from the Play Store so shouldn't really have been forced) It has an uninstall option.

"Three Likes", also shown on the Play Store but can be uninstalled easily.

Wuntu, God knows what that is, funky teen community app?

That's about it, nothing too intrusive or bloaty.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] rav101:
Hey buddy,

Thanks for this!

I bought the 8gb model from John Lewis. It prompted me to install Three Likes but quickly uninstalled. For your reference, Wuntu is their discount apps so every now and again you can get a free Costa, personal Domino's pizza, free credit with Ratukin and stuff like that so it's good to have actually.

On the VoWiFi, it works on my phone too (out of the box without needing to use the workaround), but after my phone has been asleep for a while or I leave WiFi and come back, VoWiFi drops out and won't return until I reboot my phone. Any chance you can keep a particular eye out for this to see if it happens to you?

VoLTE works perfectly out of the box which is abig upgrade for Three users from previous OnePlus phones so happy about that.

I also keep trying and ran across this article and says to use flashy to manually flash the 2 beta files for 9.0 way back in january. I wonder if I can use the flashy tool to flash the current 9.0 432 files for now and let those update to 9.1 when it happens. Had I seen this article way back in January I would have tried it. You can use the second link to download any version of android for the mate 9. Type "mha-L29" into the search field where it says "enter model" and press enter. Then just left click on the "filelist" and a second later it will pop up. The cut and past the url into a new window and press enter and it will start downloading. If the beta files will work with flashy then why not the actual files. In xda the p20 forum has similar instruction for beta pie back in 2018.

I'm not sure how to use flashy yet though. It says unzip the update files into the unzipped flashy folder but not sure where in the folder. I guess I can try and see.

[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] zentico:
Nice find jeffrimerman! Looking around, I found the original developer of the beta flashy tool is [MENTION=709835]a1Pha[/MENTION], who designed it for the P20 Pro. Here's his OP on the method:

https://xdaforums.com/huawei-p20-pro/how-to/guide-how-to-install-emui-9-android-9-t3839316

I read thru the 45 pages of comments in that thread and saw a couple of folks that had successfully used the tool to upgrade from Oreo to Pie and rebrand at the same time. Also a couple of folks who used it on other Huawei models. The tool requires two zip files, so I think you're right about needing to upgrade to 9.0 first (as 9.1 has a single zip file).

Quite a bit of discussion in the thread relates to maintaining bootloader and FRP open. It seems we might end up with those locked, making it difficult to change/upgrade ROMs other than by OTA. That would mean that under the worst scenario (other than some unexpected bootloop), we might get stuck on that 9.0 ROM if for some reason Huawei checks IMEI and not region for upgrades. The thread also has a post (linked in the OP) that has a modified FLASH.txt file to use to upgrade from "Beta to Beta" and another for getting back to Oreo, so even this scenario might be avoided.

As for where to put the zip files, the beta-flash_0.2.zip, once unpacked, has a folder conveniently labeled "ZIPS-HERE"!

I'm currently downloading MHA-L29 9.0.1.191(C432E7R1P8) from FF, and will wait to hear from your test to give it a shot! Good luck, and I'll help anyway I can if something goes south. :good:

---------- Post added at 09:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:19 AM ----------

Opening the FLASH.bat in beta-flashy, I noticed it installs a custom "No Check" recovery. It probably has a "secret sauce" in it, so it's probably required to use the one for the P20 Pro that's in the original tool. For a moment I thought of replacing it with the "No Check" recovery for MHA specifically in the HWOTA8 tool (also by [MENTION=1097168]mankindtw[/MENTION] but slightly different file size), but best not to tinker too much?

Oh wow, I actually PM'd him last night asking about exactly how to use the tool. I tried downloading from his link on that post but it didn't work. I did see the zips here so I'm sure you're right on that. The article I posted here mentioned unzipping the updates so that's what confused me. I'll have to read that guys post and see if he mentions it. Maybe he'll respond to my pm before I attempt it. He also flashed a beta 9.0 and wasn't sure if updates would come ota after that so maybe he'll know by now since it's been months. If I don't get a response then I'll ask in his thread. Has 9.0 been able to be rooted? I have my unlock code still so I can redo that from adb if I need to.

I didn't have any trouble downloading the beta flashy, but just in case, here's a copy:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/te9fcilkphi7n7i/beta-flashy_0.2.zip?dl=0

I'm not that concerned about further updates once we're on 9.0 C432, for example to 9.1. There seem to be multiple options in case OTA doesn't work: using the beta-flashy with the "beta to beta" modified script, using the EMUIFlasher_1.2.apk (intended for OpenKirin, but apparently useful for rom changes within Oreo or within Pie--but not between them), the FF eRecovery method, modified HiSuite (probably the best option as I believe it doesn't require root, unlocked bootloader or data wipe), or perhaps HWOTA9:

[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] jeffrimerman:
I've got the files, same ones you downloaded. The guy that updated with flashy on his mate 10 back in Jan couldn't remember exactly what he did.

"Download the firmware and extract it inside the same flashing tool extracted area" - This is from the article so it sounds like extract them into the "zips here" but then they technically wouldn't be zips so makes me wonder.

"Extract the firmware bundle, you'll get two ZIPs and some XMLs." - Tool creator says something similar but he said you end up with 2 zips but he was talking about 1 beta file which might have bundled the 2 updates together which makes me think I just put "update" and "update full yada yada" into the zips here folder.

I'm noticing if I unzip both files they both have a "META-INF" folder which could cause some confusion so it makes me think do not unzip the updates. I think tonight I'll end up trying it with the updates being zipped.

I think I'm on page 10 of the post of the p20 with the tool and one guy mentioned renaming the zips. I'll have to read and see if we need to rename them. Did you notice anything?

This was some instructions I read in a "flash.txt" file I read for using the tool to downgrade so I imagine we need to do the same to upgrade. Same name for the HuRupdater also. I think I have all the info I need

echo.

echo Put the update.zip into the "ZIPS-HERE" folder.

echo.

pause

echo.

echo Now rename the update_full_XXXXXX_hw_eu.zip to update_all_hw.zip and put it in the ZIPS-HERE folder.

echo.

pause

echo.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] zentico:
I assumed you would rename the zips and put them in the folder "ZIPS-HERE" without extracting the contents.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] jeffrimerman:
I was thinking the same thing but since both literally said extract I didn't want a brick =( hehe. I did it!!! I put the whole folder and ran it from the C root of the drive just to be safe. I thought someone mentioned it not seeing files. I followed the instructions that show on the pc in cmd promt since it pops up a cmd window and guides you through. It seem to do it smoothly then the phone boots and you have EMUI with the circle loading the file to 100%. When I hit 100% it said "update failed" and gave me one uption to reboot. I was worried I had a brick. When it rebooted a different Huawei logo came up and said "optimizing apps" and got up to 100% and booted up fine. Phone looked exactly the same which worried me. I never did a factory reset so it literally did a normal update and kept all my settings and icons the same and I never had to input anything. I checked phone info and it's build number is 9.0.1.191(C432E7), with emui verson 9.01. Success!!!!! Security patch says May 5 2019. I imagine we'll get a regular update when 9.1 rolls out to us or you can probably put resurrection remix if you want. I put that on my Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite and it's pretty nice. So far so good. My bootloader must still be unlocked since it gave me that warning. Even developer options is still there. Enable OEM unlock is checked but not greyed out so I can still lock maybe. Let me know if you have any questions.

Edit: This helped get hotspot working again

Connection your phone to the computer (may need to enable developer settings)

adb shell settings get global tether_dun_required

If the result is "null" or "1"

adb shell settings put global tether_dun_required 0
