I saw a guy with a problem to do a downgrade after done some things in his ZD553KL and I decided to help with a tutorial about how to reset a Asus Zenfone 4 Selfie to its original state. OBS: I am from Brazil and sorry if my english turn into a trash kkkk (you all have a brain and are capable of understand my words kkkk).

First - Be sure that you have the ADB and Asus drivers installed. Download the "stock rom of ZD553KL"

ADB Drivers: http://www.mediafire.com/file/cc ... fastboot_v1.4.3.zip

ZD553KL room: https://drive.google.com/open?id ... DXbL_sHr7FK22XsGfW8

Second: Extract the room file to a simple past name and directory like : C:\Zenfone. Avoid put into something complex like the original folder name C:\[up_vnROM.net]_WW_ZD553KL(ZB553KL)......

Okay... lets do it finally

Put your ZD553KL into fastboot mode (press volume - and power button at same time and after appears the message "fastboot mode!!!" you can connect your usb phone on (in?) your computer.

Go inside the room folder and find the .cmd file "flashall_AFT.cmd" and run or open it and wait until it finish. OBS: if the cmd file stop just press some key in your keybord that it will keep going.

OBS2: If the .cmd file does not open, you had to extract again the file and verify if you phone and adb drivers are okay and if the files are in a simple directoy as I said.

Hope have help you.

[General Questions and Answers] Thjavo:
Hi guys,

I'm a new user, I have a problem to which, when talking to a friend, he recommended me to register here and ask about my issue, as there seems to be plenty Android Experts that may be able to provide me a straight answer or give me hope.

My dad just passed away, I still can't believe it happened, given the fact that he wasn't too old... but going back on topic, his phone is a Redmi Note 4 that I ordered him around two years ago, he lived abroad and was a regular user, he never messed up with settings or anything, just stock MIUI with the updates that were sent as far as he mentioned me last time we could speak about his phone. What I would like to know is if it would be possible to recover his phone data, what me and my sisters care for the most are his pictures, we want to recover them and save them in a place where we have access to.

However, while searching on many websites, there are many Android Data Recovery software but they always request me to enable the USB debugging, but it is impossible for me, as the phone has a Pattern/Fingerprint lock.

Also, found several software that claim to remove your screen lock without deleting the device contents but when I'm going to the unlock step, there is a prompt that I have to confirm to delete all the information. And I've downloaded more than five software for each, the last one I downloaded is called Dr. Fone from Wondershare; I sent an email to them asking if I have to purchase the product to get that feature but I have not received any reply yet.

Basically, the phone is locked without USB Debugging, and I cannot access the files in the phone which is all we want.

Does anyone knows of a way to unlock it?

I'd even pay if it is necessary, I just haven't purchased the software mentioned above because I can't find if they are real or are just scam, there isn't like much information about them. Or has anyone purchased or successfully used any of those softwares?

The model is a Redmi Note 4 I believe it was the Global Version, with MIUI 8.1, but I'm not sure.

I'm getting a bit frustrated, maybe my dad doesn't want us to unlock his phone and that is why I cannot find a way, but I would like to know if it is possible.

I really appreciate your time, I'm sorry for the long text, if there is anything that maybe I'm missing, please let me know.

Thanks in advance

[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
I understand your situation, I lost my father a few years ago. It is possible to recover the data from your dad's phone, but, unfortunately, it is against the forum rules here to help with cracking a phone to retrieve data that does not belong to you. The reason why it is against the rules, even in your unfortunate situation, is because anything we tell you could be seen and used by other people to break into devices that do not belong to them.

Another factor is, we don't know if what you tell us is actually true or not. That does not mean that you are deceiving us, it just means we have no way of knowing and we can't just take your word for it.

These reasons make it unacceptable for anyone in this forum to help you. It's all about security and maintaining security, regardless of the situation, and it is somewhat a legal issue. Helping crack the device could be a liability against XDA or the members helping you. A member or user can choose to compromise their own security but we can't help with devices that are not theirs.

It is best if you didn't ask this question here and it is pointless for you to try making another thread about this issue with different wording because all of your threads and posts can be viewed from your user profile page. It is also pointless to try making another username to post this issue again with different wording because the moderators and Admin can see that it is still you with a different name.

I know it sucks, but anyone that helps you will be violating the forum rules. I'm not saying that you can't get this done, I'm just saying no one HERE can legitimately help you. I would try linking you to other places that can help you, but even that might be pushing the rules a bit.
[General Questions and Answers] alecxs:
each device has a google account (and maybe a xiaomi account). you can check from PC if there is the google password saved in browser. if not, each google account has a fallback email address where you may be able to request a (google) password reset. from google you can lock the phone with temporary password, then unlock the screen with temporary password. if you recently changed the google password before, you need to wait at least 72 hours with internet connection. besides this you can check photos.google.com or drive.google.com for any backups.

without knowing the google account, you still can try to bruteforce the pattern with Teensy or Hak5 USB Rubber Ducky microcontroller connected via USB OTG adapter. if the phone does not support USB OTG there are more expensive solutions like XPIN Clip (this is just a common hint, the important part is the code for microcontroller which i don't share here). also there might be a chance to flash TWRP custom recovery in EDL Mode without unlocking the bootloader or factory reset via exploit, and TWRP might be able to decrypt userdata partition with default_password

[Magisk] Ch3vr0n:
Now according to the documentation MM supports rooting after A/B Slot OTA. The problem is after i rooted mine (i think beginning of apri) i never got an OTA message again. Only got the OTA from march to april. Even though it's rooted with the latest stable magisk, and magisk hide (default settings) is enabled. Play store says "device is certified" and i pass satefy net. Am i missing something here, is there another setting/switch preventing system OTA notification? Manual check always says "device is up to date"

You have to restore images for OTA to work. It's a pretty easy process, just follow Magisk's official tutorial:

Resetting Your Pocket PC Phone

Resetting Your Pocket PC Phone

You can perform a soft reset or a full reset. During a soft reset, the Pocket PC Phone is restarted and only some data in opened programs may be lost. However, a full reset turns the battery off, returns the device to its original factory settings, and deletes all programs, files, contacts, and other information you have saved to the device. Therefore, it is extremely important to back up data to a storage card or your computer on a regular basis in the event that a full reset has to be performed.

To perform a soft reset:

If your Pocket PC Phone responds slowly, stops responding, or freezes, you can soft reset it. A soft reset causes the Pocket PC Phone to restart and re-adjust memory allocation.

Unsaved data in any opened applications may be lost. Use the stylus to press and hold the Reset button, as shown below.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anamorphicpixel:
Hi everyone! my friend has his LG Stylo 4 that has a version 7.2.0 of Android Accessibility Suite or TalkBack version 7.2.0. It is currently in a state of lockdown because it has been registered with a Google account and was reset and its now in FRP protection that requires a Google account to make the phone usable. We've tried all of my friend's accounts and we can't seem to find the one he used.

There are several videos and tutorials that explain how bypass the FRP by activating Talkback and accessing the internet via loopholes in the system. Most of these videos show a TalkBack version of 6.2.0 or 6.1 and they demonstrate different methods of achieving the same goal which it does with ease. But I have managed to figure out that this phone has a different version 7.2.0 and has apparently been designed as a way to close all the loopholes the system had in order to bypass the FRP.

Anyone has had this issue? any workarounds?

Can i downgrade to 6.2?

Can I root in order to downgrade while the phone is in lockdown?

Thanks!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TouchyFilidh:
Try this

I was in the same position. I have the same version of talkback ad your friend. There is a video that has steps that I was able to use to get in.

Start by googling "stylo 5 frp bypass". I used 5 expecting that it will have the same version.

Then find the video starting with "all LG September 2019" by Mohammed Ali. I can't link cause I only joined to respond to you.

It isn't creating a better mousetrap, it is the evolution of society and how we access convenience.

[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] aNGERY:
So my 6T quit reading sim cards, after about 20 times trying to reboot and install the sim and switch slots etc, the tray broke and the sim fell into the phone. I WAS able to dig it out and put the SIM back into her G6 (my girlfriend liked my 7 pro and was gonna use my 6t I had as spare)

I gave up after factory resetting, flashing the ROM etc. and decided to send it in. I had a feeling they MIGHT try to hit me for a new motherboard because I used a pick to get the SIM card out (I had no choice, she needs the phone for work) and I would have been OK with paying the 150 dollars or whatever. Look at this comprehensive parts list. I'm pretty sure it's a new phone.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] clsA:
Seems a little high considering you can get certified refurbished for about $400.
