Flash ROM

Flash twrp

Reboot twrp

Flash Gapps

then magisk if you want.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Tanner1294:
Am I being dumb? The gapps package doesn't install anything. No Play Store, no setup on first boot. Just doesn't do it on a completely clean install.

Third flash is a charm I guess. Weird... Still no setup on a factory reset though which sucks since you can't restore your info from Google.

Yeah there's no setup wizard. But don't worry, compiled Aosip Q and put in built in pixel gapps. Will release later

Hey.

I was using LineageOS and wanted to swap back to stock ROM. I currently have access to Fastboot and TeamWIN TWRP.

How can I get ANY rom working!

Any help much appreciated!

[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] tristan1990:
Hey,

How do I revert to stock and which ROM do I use for UK device? I can't find the correct one!

Also, do I just wipe and flash using TWRP?
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] Schnedi:
Hi.

If you want to go completely stock, you can install the international (https://mifirm.net/model/davinci.ttt) or european (https://mifirm.net/model/davinci_eea.ttt) ROM with Mi Flash (fastboot ROM)

If you want MIUI and TWRP, you can use the Recovery ROM.
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] tristan1990:
Thanks. The recovery link does not work. Where can I get hold of this please?
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] tristan1990:
OK. So I wiped everything and trying to install miui_DAVINCIEEAGlobal_V10.3.12.0.PFJEUXM_946a02f6df_9.0 with TWRP... I was trying to install through fastboot and I got the anti-rollback error.

The issue that I have now is that it keeps booting into recovery!? Help!
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] def.man:
You can try flashing the stock fasboot ROM using Miflash. Just make sure to open the script and delete every line that refers to anti rollback protection, basically every line until the lines that starts with fastboot.
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] Reep1324:
Use these links. You need .tgz file decompress it twice, till you have ordinary folders and files (cca 6,5GB). Then use MiFlash 2017 version (in the bottom right corner is option, if you also want to lock your bootloader). Put your phone to fastboot and flash it. It takes about 15 minutes and then you have clean phone.

Tools needed: boot.img extractor. I recommend the one created by osm0sis from this thread:

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2239421

The first method was developed by osm0sis and removes magisk and all modules.

1. Unpack magisk_patched.img

2. Unzip overlay.dremove1.zip and place overlay.d folder in ramdisk folder.

3. Repack IMG

4. fastboot boot image-new.img created by repacking 8mg

This method is an offshoot of osm0sis version but boots core-only mode. Afterwards, remove the .disable-magisk file from the /cache folder for modules to work. Dot files are hidden files so if your root explorer can't see hidden files, run the "Remove disable_magisk" bat file in ADB.

1. Same as above but use the overlay.dcoreonly1.zip

For both methods you must be rooted for it to work. These are not cure all's for all bootloops.

Remove .disable_magisk bat file

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=4349826312261684994

****************************************

Here is a fastboot bootable image to boot you into Magisk core-only mode in case you bootloop due to flashing a bad module and TWRP is not enough.

Once in fastboot:

fastboot boot image-newpixel3xl.img

You will boot with root but modules disabled. After you remove the offending module you will need to go to /cache folder and delete the .disable_magisk file before your modules will work.

fastboot boot image-newpixel3xlRemove.img

This one should remove magisk and all modules, then reboot and magisk should reinstall itself (ask to install necessary binaries). This is what osm0sis uses to recover from failed flashes. See this post:

https://xdaforums.com/pixel-3a-xl/themes/magisk-modules-disabler-booting-magisk-t3976625/page2

Images are in this common folder. Pick the appropriate image for your phone.

[Google Pixel 3 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
It's official. It works.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sliding_billy:
You are going to make a lot of people (who "forget" to disable the modules before update) very thankful.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
I'm one of those, lol! Also, with the nutty stuff I try, I will be able to get by without a factory reset all the time

[Google Pixel 3 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] DvLAx3l:
Latest magisk canary added an adb command to remove modules if bootlopps happens ?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
That's what I heard. Do you know the steps on how it works? You flash a module and you bootloop. What do you do next?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] DvLAx3l:
Didn't try yet, I was searching on topjohnwu GitHub but I don't find nothing, it's in the changelog but I don't know ?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
Well, if it's an ADB fix, a person is going to have to, at the very least, flash boot.img (though probably system images depending on what you flashed), reboot without root. Enable the ADB mode, flash ADB commands, and reboot. Remove bad modules. Then, go back and root again.

Seems simpler to just flash the modded image-new.img, reboot with root, remove modules (with ADB if you like) and reboot.

Edit: what would be cool is an option to patch a boot.img in core-only mode, right from Magisk manager, where the other option is to patch the boot.img. All that would be needed on John's part is an edited init file in that option. That's the only difference.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Face_Plant:

[Google Pixel 3 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] ffchampmt:
Got in to a bootloop situation with Bromite systemless webview module. I restored stock boot image and patched it with the latest canary build (the one with 'recovery mode' checked under advanced settings) and bootlooped again. I flashed this file, got in with magisk working, disabled the offending module, patched the boot image without recovery mode, then flashed the patched boot image and everything is up and running! Thanks for the help!
[Google Pixel 3 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Jiggs82:
Ok thanks for this but after rebooting from home screen even if I disable/remove bad mods from magisk I still get rr's/boot loops. Would I need to uninstall magisk completely then and start fresh or what?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
Can you open magisk manager? If so, uninstall magisk from there.

If not, once booted in core-only mode, unzip the contents of this zip in a folder you can use ADB from and run the bat file. It'll push the .disable_magisk file to the cache folder and totally disable any module activity.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Jiggs82:
Yes I was able to open magisk but even if I uninstalled it I still had this weird bootlloop so before I saw this message I ended up just flashing factory 10 image clean this time just to be sure everything would flash/install successfully and luckily they did lol but thanks anyways and I will hold onto to these files for future references:good:
[Google Pixel 3 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] drocny87:
would the modded boot img that disables modules work for the pixel 3 as well?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Blo3y:
I've recently moved to turkey where they block the phone's wireless signal by blocking the the device's IMEI on their networks

there are shops that "Crack" the phone by changing the IMEI number so the phone unlocks again

I know it removes the device's warranty .

Phone's model : sm-n960f/ds

Thank you.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Bober_is_a_troll:
I don't believe flashing the turkey based rom will bypass an imie whitelist.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Youdoofus:
nope, it wont. its a blacklist youre wanting to bypass and its not a ROM. From what youve described, you dont need to circumvent a blacklist as it would be virtually impossible for a turkey provider to blacklist every IMEI but their own

---------- Post added at 02:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:47 PM ----------

from what it sounds like, you just need the correct CSC flashed on your phone for its specific carrier. Just download that and flash it with the HOME_CSC so that it doesnt factory reset the device

---------- Post added at 02:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:48 PM ----------

it seems that Turkey will allow for cell IMEI's to work in their country for 5 or 6 days at which time they will indeed block you... (talk about a messed up FCC group) and if you register your IMEI with your passport, then youll again have access. If youre wanting to stay off their government radar, i get it. But youll find it quite difficult to get anyone to talk to you about how to change an IMEI. Its not really all that hard, its just VERY against the rules of XDA
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Bober_is_a_troll:
Of course they don't blacklist every imie in the world. They simply have a whitelist from the sounds of it where as you stated, new or "foreign"devices get 6 days and then they get banned. While on the other hand phones meant for the country are registered with the government beforehand and added to the list. Hence why I used the term whitelist as that's the more feasible way of implementing that. I just wanted to point out that flashing the turkey based rom won't do a thing for this particular problem. And as you also pointed out, it's against forum rules to help spoof imie's that's pretty much where this ends
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Youdoofus:
not necessarily. he could register the IMEI with Turkey too.

---------- Post added at 03:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:12 PM ----------

plus, it seems that they have increased the amount of days from 60 to 120 before they block the IMEI

[MENTION=10088077]Bober_is_a_troll[/MENTION] it seems far more like a blacklist btw. The turkish cell providers give the gvmnt the IMEIs on the daily, and they compare the registered ones against the unregistered ones and blacklist the ones that show up on their system for more than 120 days. A Whitelist is the exact opposite. Blocking everything and allowing access from those IMEIs. That would be totally fine if they didnt allow IMEI connections for the first 120 days, but since they do, its a Whitelist

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] iceepyon:
You would have to overwrite the IMEI number with a different one, which is not blacklisted in order to get a blacklisted device to work. Over submit an application to have the IMEI number whitelisted.

did you check out the MIGRATION settings in the backup menu under options? you can choose to migrate your settings to another device (it migrates call logs, contacts, calender, tasks and categories...better yet for contacts to never fail and to always be updated is to use an exchange server for your pocket outlook email (i use a free one called mail2web i dont know what id do without it, push email is far superb over pop3)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goingby:
Hi everyone! This is my first post, but I have used the search tool already without success. I am just a user, not developer and quite noob regarding mobiles and security.

Situation

1. I've got hacked, total control (photos, emails, camera, contacts, whatsapp, screen etc) of my unrooted android phone (xiaomi redmi note 7).

It was a targetted attack, no manual app installed, no unsafe 3rd party apps allowed. Attackers only had my gmail account (linked to android) and telephone number. I know them personally, and they leaked personal information to people at work (who enjoy it between them but won't help me at all).

No high consumption of battery/data. Just leeching information, launching some apps eventually, and few interactions with the screen minimizing etc.

2. I Installed antimalware (e.g malwarebytes), antivirus (avg, esset etc). No positive results. I also installed "Noroot firewall" to control programs accessing internet, nothing strange.

3. I've changed emails(new), SIM + Telephone. Got hacked again. I suspect my own wifi was compromised.

Additionally, added 2 step verification to emails, changed passwords, encrypted the device etc. I have found no IP from them in the emails log, nor alert from gmail. Only once a session from Linux device (not mine). I believe they have accessed through the device.

4. I want to restore the device somehow and avoid getting hacked again.

One of the problems I face is taht that now I'm not in the same circle of people from which I gathered most of the info on the leaked information, so I can't get to know if the actions I am taking got rid of the hack, besides some punctual actions they may do (launch app etc). So I have to act quite paranoid and do the most secure action.

Question

1. Any idea on how they managed to do that? how can I prevent it or prove it? a reset would get rid of any proof, but I kinda prefer it if it is once and for all.

2. A hard reset only formats one partition (user data), so if there is a trojan located in /system it would be pointless. With an unrooted device I can only get rid of /cache and /data.

Should I install another ROM?(my phone has always been unrooted) which one? (restoring the stack ROM would probably be pointless if the vulnerability is due to android...

3. Is there any other measure I could take?

I'd appreciate any help.

Thank you!
