[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] knewman:
Hello friend! I was experiencing a similar problem on my device with any attempted ROM flash (not specific to this one). I followed Xiaomi's guide to return my device to stock - http://c.mi.com/oc/miuidownload/detail?guide=1

I encountered problems during flashboot because my desktop has an AMD Ryzen processor - these are known to interfere with flashboot from what I've read. Certain USB 3.0 chipsets can also cause problems. To get around this I used an older laptop with an Intel processor.

I was then able to flash this ROM successfully.

Evolution X .. Which rom should I flash for checking widevine L1? This rom supports widevine L1 as per latest changelogs
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] Tianhe:
Then you will have to query your ROM Dev / ask in the custom ROM group. Stock ROM supports L1
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] axit50:
I flashed modified stock ROM but it wasn't supporting L1
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] Tianhe:
What can I say ? It still supports L1 for me on stock rooted ROM (Pie). Although I am not sure to what extent you have modified it. Do you pass CTS profile and Basic Integrity check ?
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] axit50:
Yes. It passes every time.. Maybe they did not enable it
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] axit50:
I am on 053 official stock ROM with locked bootloader now.. it's still L3
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] Tianhe:
Upgrade to v056 and check. Also please check whether your device shows certified in Google Play-Settings-Play Protection Certification.

After OTA upgrade to Pie I get the following problem ... my cell phone says usb cable is connected (but it's not), i have the ability to decide what to do, but when i choose it stays on charging option via usb cable all the time. After a few restarts it disappears, but after it disappears, when I lock it then it blocks.

After factory reset and alternate reset it's same.

Sometimes it happens if you turn off the phone without unlocking the screen first. Then you flashed new firmware, and it's trying to verify the phone wasn't stolen.

Hi there,

My friends Mi A2 Lite has developed white lines that gradually get more opaque as the device is unlocked, and then goes away when locked completely. The phone is usable, but the white lines are very annoying, no idea what has caused it. They say they have not dropped the phone at all.

Picture attached.

Any help appreciated.

Hi, i'm new to this forum and I have a question regarding my old Galaxy S2. The phone is running on Android 2.3.4 (Carrier branded - Swisscom, the logo appears while turning the phone on), SIM unlocked. I was wondering could I install LineageOS or any newer custom rom immediately, or do I need to install different firmware before that? By the way, I'm new when it comes to rooting/custom roms etc, so I'm scared that i might brick it.

Thanks in advance :o

Hi and welcome to XDA.

Please have a look at this thread https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s2/help/guide-tutorial-samsung-galaxy-s2-i9100-t3538601

I used this guide a couple of years ago to move from 2.3.6 to 7.1.2. You now have more choice for the Android version, you can update to 7, 8 or 9 if you like. The guide will get you to the point of ROM installation, from there you can use the install instructions for the one you choose.

Good luck, happy flashing and let us know how you go.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] John One:
Dear Android Community,

Disclaimer: I am new to rooting. Pls consider that & be patient. I might not understand everything in the first place :angel:

Okay - let's go.

1.) First off I installed the latest original firmware for my Samsung Galaxy J6 (SM-J600-FN)

2.) Then I installed the correct TWRP-version for my phone hopefully (TWRP-3.2.3-TwrpBuilder-j6ltedx-2018-08-21_14-15.tar)

3.) After that I used the standard Magisk rooting method by installing

no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0

RMM-State_Bypass_Mesa_v2

Magisk-v19.3

4.) Then I installed Magisk Manager after my system booted for the first time and I am ready to explore everything rooting offers to me <3

BUT

What happened to me more than 5 times now. I installed everything I wanted, mostly rooting apps, Magisk modules & debloated my phone. My last step used to be to set a password, because I didn't want to always type in my password cause of the many reboots I had to make...

THAT HAPPENED

After I set my password, no matter what action led my phone to turn off it's screen, it told me to access my password & the result is still very frustrating because it said that the code is WRONG everytime?! How can that be I thought. First of all I thought I made a stupid mistake & couldn't remember it right...

BUT

Immediatetly after I typed the CORRECT password (I did this method min. 5 times, including installing original frimware with Odin or through installing my OrignialBackupFirmware through TWRP, so I know now, It's not my fault. It must be something else) the lockscreen said it was uncorrect and my phone put itself in a...

BOOTLOOP

This bootloop is different from what I've seen before, because it starts with the Samsung logo. Shows the lockscreen for some seconds (I can't enter my password from here) and starts to loop again. But from here I fortunately can get into TWRP recovery without having to install the system again with Odin.

THEN

I thought it had something to do with the software I installed, with magisk modules or with debloating, but now I've figured that this wasn't the case.

EVEN

When my system is just freshly rooted and everything is untouched this bad error happens.

NOW

I want to ask for help because I don't know how to solve this issue & I came across this post, where it says that I should delete following files:

password.key

pattern.key

locksettings.db

locksettings.db-shm

locksettings.db-wal

...but I don't want to risk encountering this roor again, because I want to spare time, energy and I am wasted from installing & rooting & configuring my system over and over again...

Thx for helping me!!

what's the rom that's most stable right now? I'm on China rom and have 7 days to wait to unlock my bootloader.

unfortunately I don't like the rom, sync issues with my google accounts.

I no longer have the time to keep on flashing ang re-flashing my phone, am terribly busy with work. so I'm looking for a rom where I can stick on it for a few months.

my last device was a mi max 2 and I stayed on nougat, on that one rom for 14 months lol. I don't really care about updates. as long as the rom is snappy and fast and generally bug free.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Questions & Answers] nkrishna:
Same here. Can someone please give us some inputs as to which ROM is best to stick around? (other than the MIUI, I hate it)

Stability and reliability along with good camera usage is my necessity.

Had used PE on Redmi Note 5 Pro for more than 6 months. PE for Violet seems to be slightly lagging when I used it. And I am unable to use finger print in LOS.

I just flashed Evolution ROM. It seems to be built on PE and so far it looks very neat. Will update later with more details.

UPDATE: Evolution 2.0 seems to be the better among the AOSP based ROMs out there. I never noticed any issues. GCAM, battery, signal coverage and integrity, stability etc, seems to be really impressive... Close to stock roms. In case you want AOSP ROM, i would suggest this one strongly.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Questions & Answers] myblessayu:
You can flash PE AOSP for stability. I am still on a June release, with zero issues. I'm sure the latest build will be stable and improved too.

Hi

can't confirm that. Did basically the same, but the manager is still here.

Edit: Wonder if that is the reason Quote from Nvidia:

... once you get to 8.0 and flash to a new release, we'll verify the image being flashed is compatible with the unit being flashed.

[Shield Android TV General] sash11:
It is a system application now. That's why I could not find it in the list of regular apps. Very weird. nVidia must classify it as such and put in into that category.

Same to me, if I boot with magisk_patched, it keeps stuck at nvidia Logo

Maybe the boot.img of the developer image, once it is released, might work. Or hopefully someone finds a way too root again.

Hi, just a question

Since Nvidia will release an unlocked Full 8.9 developper OTA (hope it'll be soon) , isn't it better to root that than trying on the official "locked" one ?

As for me, since i started rooting my shield, i always did it that way without problems.

Btw i was thinking of trying the same trick as you did but since i hadn't much time ... Anyway you saved my day, thanks

One last thing for those of you who are dev or android enthousiast, i make use of a fantastic Magisk script called xXx No Limits wich i find very neat.

My questions are

* Could such a script be usefull in case of the Shield ?

[Depending, i guess on wich Magisk modules are compatible with the Shield. Is there a list for compatible modules ?

* If worth it Could someone make such a script for the Shield ?

Thanks in advance for giving me clues, have all a great day !

Same issue here with my 2015 Shield 16gb. Flashed patched image and stuck on the Nvidia logo.

EDIT - I solved this by installing Zulu99's full android which is based upon the official Nvidia Pie firmware but pre-rooted.
[Shield Android TV General] oldpoem:
That rom has problem with colors / drm conflicts which has me revert to stock.
[Shield Android TV General] Beefheart:
With the colour issue you just need to disable H/W overlay in dev options.
[Shield Android TV General] oldpoem:
Disable H/W overlay cause drm video service not working. Netflix goes blackscreen.
[Shield Android TV General] zulu99:
One click to enable or disable hw overlay is not a so hard work.

Just one time after every reboot if you are doing something different than watch Netflix.

In return for this hard work ( press a button ) you will have the entire Android world on your giant screen.

With root is even more simple and you can program it like you want with a script:

service call SurfaceFlinger 1008 i32 1

Full Android is something different than just pay to watch Netfilix, Amazon video and if you are crazy for Nvidia game streaming.... Apart this 3 services, what is Android TV ? Nothing. And now without root is even less.

I paid money to buy the device and on my device Nvidia and Google can have system permissions and i no ? What a ****ing world is this ? :eek:
[Shield Android TV General] sairam108:
Stuck at NVIDIA logo after flash patched boot too.
[Shield Android TV General] Beefheart:
Fair enough, I use Sky Q for Netflix so I don't use DRM. I never need HW overlay turned on.
[Shield Android TV General] zulu99:
Maybe the fact is not clear. You can have vivid colors and also Netflix. One thing does not exclude the other.

The color of videos are always good with hw overlay enabled or disabled.

Only the color of apps is a little washed out with hw overlay active. But you can disable the overlay to have vivid color on apps when you use apps.

When you want see protected videos, is sufficient press a button and re-enable the hw overlay.

Everything is perfect, you can watch Netflix and also have vivid colors.

Apart this clarification, Nvidia should correct soon this problem since is a problem of the hw composer that is inside the vendor folder that we don't touch. On a project treble device, the vendor folder ( the drivers ) to be Google compliant, must work also on other frameworks. Since i tested the Nvidia vendor also on the original GSI version of Google, i know that the problem come from Nvidia and soon should be corrected. Anyway is not a big problem for now.
