[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] standupdad:
Tencent 8/128, yes.

I have a WW out of the box, but bc SafetyNet is fails on first boot and after a fdr, it is believed that the seller flashed WW over CN.

My concern was that I didn't want to update with the updated WW if I have to keep re installing or restoring apps, or if I had to jump through hoops each time I'm now looking to see how I can prove that the phone was reflashed to WW by the seller so I can return it. I need banking and Google pay to work. SafetyNet and OTA is important to me. I'm likely to contact Asus China for proof in how my serial/IMEI was flashed at the factory.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Rortiz2:
This guide is only for the Fire HD8 2016 (codenamed giza.)

This will not unlock your tablet, it will clear RPMB and flash original LK,TZ & preloader for restore it from ANTI-ROLLBACK.

I am not responsable of any physical damage in your tablet, YOU choose to make this modifications.

WARNING: Short the resistor with a lot of caution! A lot of people broke it and the only way to recovery it is doing a bridge!

NOTE: You will need to open the tablet so be prepared.

MATERIAL NEEDED:

Linux based system

USB Cable

Something conductive (paperclip, tweezers etc)

Something to open the tablet.

Install python3, PySerial, adb, fastboot:

sudo apt update
sudo add-apt-repository universe
sudo apt install python3 python3-serial adb fastboot

Disable/Uninstall modemmanager:

sudo systemctl stop ModemManager
sudo systemctl disable ModemManager

UNBRICK PROCEDURE:

1. Open the case of the tablet.

2. Now flip off the tablet, we need to access on the other pad.

3. You have two options; Desolder the shield, or do a hole were the point is located (see attatchments).

4. Now go to the Computer and download amonet-giza-v.X.zip and extract it.

5. Open the unpacked folder of amonet-giza-1, open a terminal inside it and type:

sudo ./bootrom-step.sh

6. When you see:

[2019-02-07 14:35:59.478924] Waiting for bootrom

Short the point with the ground (Metal shield for example) and wait until the script starts.

7. The script will say to remove the short. When this happens, stop shorting the BootROM point and then press enter.

8. Wait until the script finishes, you will see something like:

Reboot.

9. Now your tablet should start booting back to FireOS.

Next time, be carefully with downgrade.

Any thoughts?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Rortiz2:
Something is wrong with payload.

It seems to load it but somehow it can't detect it.

How did you bricked your tablet? Downgrading?

EDIT: I checked the adresses of the scripts and are OK. I think you are doing something wrong.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] twocrows:
I was afraid of that.

Will do some more checking on my end, but am afraid I nicked the board when I cut off top plate :(

Will post pic if it will help to see what *NOT* to do
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Rortiz2:
Check and post results. But if you tablet is detected as preloader without shorting the point, then it's not hardware problem. Try doing the process without battery connected.

Glad that you unbricked your tablet.;)

Regarding to bootloader unlock it can be ported from douglas I think.

Motherboard Looks Different

I made the same mistake of downgrading and now I can't get the tablet to do much. It is giving me some activity when I plug it in after doing a hard power off but I am getting errors. I took a screenshot of my terminal window and can attach it if it's helpful. The main problem that I am having is when I open it to short it, I'm not seeing the same thing that I'm seeing in the image. My motherboard doesn't have the metal cover on it. Can someone please help me to figure out how to short mine. I really need some help as my sister was really upset that the tablet no longer works. I have attached some pictures. Please help!

Grab the latest update.bin and flash tz.img to tee1 and tee2.

You can either dd the image (with mtk-su) or use amonet itself to write it.

I used this and now both my WiFi and Bluetooth won't work, does anyone know how I can fix this? Rortiz2 said that-

Maybe that's some TZ incompatibility problem. Try updating tee1/tee2 to the latest version.

And to be honest I have no idea what that means or how to do it, can anyone help?

Hi,

my Fire HD8 2016 tablet crashed somehow and I tried to recover it using this method. The script fails with some error while shorting the point in the first run and now the tablet always boots as:

Sorry to ping this somewhat older thread, but I think I just am "battery bricked", with the battery going to zero, and in a boot loop. Will this thread help in that specific bricked state? Do I need to do the hardware-short-to-ground to recover from a battery brick?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Bertonumber1:
I've never heard of this. But if your in a bootloop and can't access recovery you'll have to short it again id imagine. Is there no boot-recovery.sh in the amonet folder?

Sorry for my wrong English

I am currently on stock miui 10.3.6.0 .I have unlocked the bootloader,Installed TWRP recovery & rooted my device with magisk.Now i am unable to get the latest miui 10.3.7.0 update.!

Is there any way in whick i can update my device to latest miui rom?

If there please help me.

I am not finding any link which is helping me.

I downloaded latest miui recovery rom from here but unfortunately there is an error i.e flash all.bat is missing in xiaomiflashtool.Tried to flash the same rom through TWRP but there again is an error i.e compatibility zip missing.

a download link to miui 10.3.7.0 fastboot rom will be appreciated.please help

Thanks in advance

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] ChandrakantBelell:
Thanks very much it helped. I have downloaded fastboot Rom and flashed it. I have another big issue,after flashing 10.3.7.0 update I got miui stock recovery Installed so I again.

Flashed twrp from fastboot.

Then format data.

Flash magisk.

And reboot.

But after successful reboot and setup when I choose to use pattern or pin or password as authentication.The device is not recognizing my correct pin or password.It says password incorrect. Please help I am not finding any solution for this.

What is the correct pattern to install recovery to successful magisk install.

Thanks
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] darhma:
Why did you used fastboot rom instead of the recovery rom? This way you didn't update the rom but reinstalled it. So I think that the only way to get rid of the password request is to format data partition from recovery and then install magisk. Next time you have to update you have to download the RECOVERY rom, dirty flash it and flash magisk before rebooting to system.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] ChandrakantBelell:
Ok thanku.So now i have to flash TWRP recovery.then boot into recovery wipe data then install magisk right? Is there any other zip to flash? What is vm verity zip? I have to flash that also?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] darhma:
You have to flash twrp reboot to recovery if it asks for a password format data then install magisk. Vbmeta is needed just when you change rom from miui to aosp, so in this case you don't need it

Hi everyone,

I am the owner of an A2017G, unlocked bootloader.

I tried them all, but all of them and I can't get into fastboot / bootloader mode.

Ihave flash rom via MIFLASH and AXON7 EDL TOOL using rom Nougat and Oreo, but the result is always the same !!!

Do you have any ideas to help me, perpetuate?

Thank you.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] YoungAll:
Use miflash and flash unlock bootloader image by Turkdev, even in oreo it will give you fastboot menu.

I did this 3 days ago to relock my bootloader

Use this tutorial:

https://xdaforums.com/axon-7/how-to/guide-unlock-bootloader-easily-t3704595

The reason you lose your fastboot menu because you unlock BL with another image (using Axon 7 EDL tool perhaps), but if you do unlock with turkdev image in tutorial, your fastboot menu will stay there

[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] Mr_Mooncatt:
I just joined up since this is one of the more active places for ROG Phone 2 info. Can anyone give me the low down on what manual controls are available in the stock camera app (for the global variant, in case there's a difference)? I'm especially interested in the maximum shutter time, if focus peaking is available, and if there's any microphone settings for video.

I do a lot of long exposure photos and occasionally go to the local drag strip to video jet cars. My LG V20 is one of the best phones for that stuff, so I'm trying to get an idea of how this would stack up against it.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] Cammarratta:
Is this what you're looking for?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] Mr_Mooncatt:
Yes, good to see that 32 sec max shutter!

Can it do manual video controls as well?

Something else I forgot to ask was about the resolution/pixel binning. Can you switch between 48MP and 12MP at will? I know some manufacturers force things like that depending on lighting conditions. Samsung and LG don't let you use the telephoto lens in dim light, even if that's what you want, hence my reason for asking.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] Cammarratta:
You can switch. The 48mp picture takes a bit longer to take though so be careful as you'll end up moving the phone before the picture is done.

No video controls that I can see.

Did you check with your provider whether tethering is part of your plan? The network detects when you tether and thus is able to block that.

I use tethering few days ago in Galaxy S7...

Contacted with them and asked me that some smartphone companys not are compatible with tethering with them (R Cable, Orange signal, Spanish carrier). I don't think that it's reply was true....

Or rooting the one plus or something??
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] LovreDr:
I had same problem with my provider, tried different one and it worked. But i didn't want to change provider so I googled and luckily found solution, you have to run adb command adb shell settings put global tether_dun_required 0 , reboot and it magically worked. It survives reboots and updates so it is basically one-time command, unless you do factory reset. All in all it is provider's problem, not device's and it can be easily fixed, at least for me and I hope it works for you too.
