[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] Jayszzin:
same happen to my phone got me an error, did you fixed yours? please help!!
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] gabi.ailincai:
Looking at the errors I believe it's either the drivers not working properly, or you're not using the side port.

I suggest you uninstall the qualcomm drivers, then reboot, then install them again, then reboot again. Then see if you get the same error. I don't expect the bootloader needs to be unlocked for this, but this may also be an issue.

My instructions are based on this thread:

I was playing PUBG at 90 fps in HDR ( 90 FPS don't support HDR in PUBG ). Was using "HEX editor" app to play game at 90 FPS. It was running good for 4 months since at 90fps but yesterday it suddenly died. I tried to turn it on but it didn't. Then when I press all three buttons, volume up + down + power key it went to recovery option and I selected restart after that it is completely dead. Not again the three keys combination worked. Please guys help. Some people said to change PM8150c. Some said just to change firmware. But how should I change firmware ? please give me complete tutorial link.

Hi! can somebody please help me? 2 days ago, my ROG 2 suddenly shutdown and then no response at all. It's not charging, not booting up, even tried the reset using different volume+power key combos but no response at all. and today, I tried the method posted in here but my device can't get to the "DOWNLOAD" status in Miflash. And whenever I tried to flash the phone anyway using the miflash, I always get the "set boot partition failed" error. also tried the qfil then there's the sahara error. also tried detecting the device thru adb and fastboot cmd, my phone is not being detected or listed. but under device manager, i have no problems with the qualcomm qdloader 9008 driver, it pops up just fine whenever i connect the phone thru the side port. any other tips or troubleshooting on this matter? thanks!

My phone died at 2:45 PM... and then I read this thread and do the Volume Up, down, power and hold them for 20 seconds.... aaaaand it's back on.... thank you
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] H0Ly_bLaSt0R:
Last night scared me a bit... I turned off Wi-Fi and muted the phone, at 2:19 AM I clicked to monitor my sleep and screen on my ROG Phone 2 froze on that app and with visible dot where I touched the screen. Tried to power off or restart the phone but the power button didn't do anything no matter how long I holded it for 15, 30 or 60 seconds... I tried that also with combination of power button + vol up to go to recovery but that didn't work either. When I connected it to recharge no indication either so I unpluged it from the charger. I had 39% of battery when it happened, so I went to sleep hoping that phone will turn off. I wake up in the morning and screen is still shining like it froze couple hours ago ROG led logo on the back is flashing red.

Started looking for the solution on XDA and tried holding the combination of all buttons: power + vol up + vol down and it helped to restart the phone to bootloader and then start it on normally like it didn't happen...

I had still 16% left of the battery and phone is charging normally.

"1. Download this file. It contains the firmware images and some utilities, which we'll need to use."

The file is no longer available. My phone has just gone dead while simply sitting in my pocket :-(

It makes the disconnect reconnect sound when connected trough the side port as described. I would like to recover it but I cannot download the file mentioned above can anyone help?

If it possible to recover the contents of the phone? I have the 1T model and there are tons of pics in it still which I have't had the opportunity to backup and with google now limiting the storage the're on on there either.

Hugely thankful for any help.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] aegdawson:
Mine has gone dead just sitting in my pocket 18 months old pone with 1T of storage and 12 G Mem, hardly ever played gams with it.

The first time it happened I managed to restart it using the combination volume and power button keys but now even that doesn't work. Only sign of life is connect/disconnect sound when connected to a comp through the side USD port.

Premium product with a disappointing short life. Looking at the number of messages of people having the same problem it appears to be a design fault. If any one has any solutions would be great to know... even if just to get my precious stuff off it!
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] gabi.ailincai:
Since it connects to your PC, you might be in luck, it might be in EDL mode. There's another thread on here about recovering the phone through EDL. Follow the instructions very carefully - worked for me after a bad flash.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] Ev3rything:
Will this allow the data to be recovered as well? I could care less about if the phone can't be used anymore, I just need my pictures. This same event happened to me today. phone froze, turned off and wont come back on with any button combo.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] gabi.ailincai:
The tool used seems to be pretty powerful, so it might allow you to get stuff from the phone's storage, but I don't know whether or how that can done. Keep in mind that the disk is encrypted, so the tool needs to have a way to decrypt the data using your PIN or pattern. I have a feeling that's quite hard to do, but I'm not sure. I just used those instructions to make the phone usable, I didn't care that much for the data on the phone, everything important was backed up.

Hi I have more or less same issue.

Reboot while go to recovery / system, only bootloader and EDL is fine.

What i have tried so far-

1) Qfil tool to flash

2) Mi flash tool as well

3) fastbooted raw FW.

All are in vain, still the same bootloops on recovery and system.

Update -

Stock recovery and TWRP is working with adb commands as well and detecting as storage as well..

Only when i flash this file using QFIL

FirmwareX.Net_ZS660KL FACTORY MP16.0501.1903.41_M1.9.23.rar

This is factory image.

Tried flashing magisk/custom rom/stock rom via TWRP.

But still bootloop in system before the boot animation.

Charging is fine for both ports.

Hello all,

on several phones I have used the message notification included not only "you have a message from xxx" but also the actual text of the message.

In the Mi Max 3 I get only "you have a message from xxx".

As I read notifications on my Garmin watch - the watch shows now only that I have a message - but it does not show the content of the message (which it did on my previous phones).

How do I show the content of the message in the notification (this is on global miui 10)

I just received my Android 10 update and after the update when it asked to reboot I tapped reboot and now it has been stuck in a continuous bootloop. My phone was not rooted or modded in any way. I was able to boot into the recovery selection menu but cant go into the actual recovery (it just says "no item" when I select recovery).

Any help/suggestions?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] fdgd1998:
You can reflash the ROM using the full OTA package, as is stated by Google in https://developers.google.com/android/ota : This page contains full OTA update packages that allow you to restore your Nexus or Pixel device's original factory firmware. You will find these files useful if you have experienced a failure to take an OTA. This has the same effect as flashing the corresponding factory image, but without the need to wipe the device or unlock the bootloader." You also have in that page instructions of the whole process.

All you need to do is reboot into recovery, enter adb sideload mode from whitin it and send the zip OTA file using your PC and adb. Download QP1A.190711.020 version under Pixel 2 XL.

In order to boot into recovery, when you see the Android robot with the "no item" message keep pressed the power button and then short-press volume up until the recovery options show up.

It after that it's still failing, just format within recovery or flash the full firmware stock package.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] areebiqbal:
thank you for the helpful reply

i had already started the process and have already downloaded all the files

but i cant unlock the bootloader as it says in the tutorial

am i doing something wrong? or is there any way to flash without unlocking the bootloader?

Edit: I dont have the "oem unlock" option turned on.

PLZ HELP
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] fdgd1998:
Are you flashing the OTA or the full firmware? For the OTA bootloader unlock isn't necessary.

And in the instructions are stated the opposite, you must have misread it.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] ku81na:
hi, so luckily i had oem unlocking checked before this happened, but after the october update ive been stuck in bootloop.

ive tried both sideloading the ota in recovery, and also full firmware flash via fastboot.

after several attempts at both, i can't seem to access the recovery and bootloop persists.

any ideas?

https://xdaforums.com/pixel-2-xl/development/tool-deuces-bootloop-recovery-flashing-t3704761
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] ku81na:
no dice. appreciate the suggestion though
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] simplepinoi177:
if you can confirm a couple things for me....

Are you actually getting into the recovery, but not seeing any "items"; because in stock recovery, you just see a broken/dead android image, and only get selections revealed/not-hidden but holding the volume-up & power button at the same time momentarily.

But, then again, you claim that you have attempted to "sideload the ota in recovery", so I imagine you already did this…but then, again again, you don’t describe what “error” or outcome actually happened and it could possibly be that, when you attempted, you just couldn’t or didn’t know how to get into the stock recovery…

Also, the recovery resides in the boot partition; I suggest you download the Full Factory image file (from the Google Developers site), extract it until you can find the boot.img, then manually flash it to overwrite and maybe fix the boot & recovery; to further explain, copy the extracted “boot.img” file to platform-tools folder where adb and fastboot reside, then run the command “fastboot flash boot boot.img” – although, if the flash-all is successfully executed, it would be doing this anyways…..

Which brings me to my next thing…if you could edit the “flash-all.bat” file and remove the word “exit” at the end – and for that matter, if you wish to save your data, remove the -w as well – and if you could please copy the output/log of you running the flash-all; usually this resolves everything & it all, so maybe it’s here that something is going wrong…

And running Deuce’s famous rescue script has saved/recovered countless people and their device (taimen)…it definitely is a good idea to attempt it…

But, then again, this is assuming that you made sure to run (and successfully execute) the fastboot command “fastboot flashing unlock” and/or (depending on your bootloader version) “fastboot flashing unlock_critical”.

Good luck, hopefully you can get back to me/us on some of this stuff, and hopefully all this ends up being helpful…
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] simplepinoi177:
Curious....

I would suggest you try Deuce's script -- again, it has assisted and recovered countless taimens. And, if that doesn't help, I would suggest you try temporarily booting into TWRP custom recovery. If you do not know how to do that, download the TWRP .img file from twrp.me (you'll have to direct yourself to the Google Pixel 2 XL [taimen] section), put it where you put the flash-all and other image files, then run the fastboot command "fastboot boot twrp.img" (replace "twrp.img" with the actual filename of the twrp image file). There you can erase/format the system and/or other partitions, or even "repair" the filesystem! You can also run adb commands, so you might have some luck and be able to install/flash an OTA image file as well....

Good luck and hope this helps...!

Pretty straight forward for those of us who like a nice clean flash. Not you dirty dogs.

1 clean flash lastest Android 10 factory image and install

2 setup the device don't set a password or pin

Install latest canary Magisk manager

3 pull the boot.img out of the Factory image zip.

4 move the boot image to phone internal storage

Patch boot.img with Magisk.

5 download latest twrp.img and fastboot boot it

Install the patches boot.img to your boot

Mount opposite partition if A then mount b, if b mount a

Ignore the error.

And repeat flashing patched boot.img like you did the first time

Mount original partition reboot. And boom

So installing the magisk canary build via zip in TWRP does not work?

---------- Post added at 04:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:05 PM ----------

[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Schroeder09:
Is patching the boot.img in magisk mentioned in step 4 an option in magisk? How do I "patch" the boot image?

How do I do this portion of step 5?:

Install the patches boot.img to your boot

Mount opposite partition if A then mount b, if b mount a

Does magisk store the patched boot image somewhere (and it tells you where) that is accessible in TWRP? then we need only go to that file path in TWRP under the "install" tab?

What does this mean?:

And repeat flashing patched boot.img like you did the first time

Do you mean on the partition you were originally on?

So if we're on A, mount B, install the patched boot image on A, remount A, install the patched boot image on B, and then reboot?

How do we "install to th boot?"

Good instructions but you don't even need TWRP if you want to save time. I just patched the boot.img with the Canary. 20 Magisk build and moved it over to my pc so that I could just flash it using the fastboot flash boot boot.img command. Worked like a champ and did not have to disable my security pin and jack with mounting A or B with TWRP.

I just flashed .20

Booted it once.
