[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] DBxda7x:
I have Honor 7x BND-L24 (USA version) which is stuck at a screen which says:

ERROR MODE

Attention!

Please update system again

Error!

Func NO : 10 (boot image)

Error NO : 2 (load failed)

Before this screen I had EMUI 5.1 with Android 7.0 installed version BND-L24C567B150CUSTC567D001 and TWRP custom recovery. I wanted to do OTA update so went and installed stock recovery and that somehow damaged my boot image. After factory reset it goes to the screen mentioned above. I can't even turn it off anymore.

I can still boot into fastboot mode, I can still go into recovery by holding both volume buttons and power button but the install always fails and brings me back to the same error screen. Is there any way to fix the boot image error?

Fastboot flashing does not work anymore and gives errors:

fastboot flash boot boot.img
target reported max download size of 471859200 bytes
sending 'boot' (15170 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.395s]
writing 'boot'...
FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)
finished. total time: 0.406s

The bootloader is unlocked:

fastboot oem get-bootinfo
...
(bootloader) unlocked
OKAY [ 0.008s]
finished. total time: 0.009s

I have also seen in the forums that a dload method (creating a dload folder in the sd card and adding UPDATE.APP file into it) could be used to recover, but it always stops at 5% and fails. Maby I am doing it wrong because the stock ROM has two .zip files (update.zip and update_full_BND-L24_hw_usa.zip) and they both have the UPDATE.APP file in it. If someone could give me a guide on how to propertly use the dload method I would like to try it.

Any additional comments or solutions to try unbricking the phone will be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

P.S. after searching the xda forums it seems that for the dload method I would require a specific rom called the service ROM dload. I have tried searching for it but could only find it for BND-L21, if anyone has a service ROM for BND-L24C567 (USA version) please give me a link, I would like to try the dload method with it.

SOLVED !!!

Thread can be closed. If anyone need the solution on how to fix this issue just send me a message.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] Kr1msonReaper:
Hey how'd you fix it dude? I accidentally broke my boot image and im getting the same error as you did. the only thing i can do is use root shell in stock recovery. I'm trying to figure out how to flash twrp (Ice cream sandwich) to recovery2 but so far no luck.

Can you help me out?
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] DBxda7x:
Is your bootloader unlocked and frp unlocked?

if yes then:

Get the stock recovery, boot, system and etc. by going into the OpenKirin website, there is a nice guide there in the support section on how to download and extract the stock recovery and boot images and etc.

Hold down the volume down key and plug in the usb cable. Use fastboot to flash in the stock recovery.

flash them using "fastboot flash" command with the adb and fasboot tool.

if not then:

download Chimera tool.

Pay for 3 day trial (~12 eur)

Do system restore in the application, worked for me. BND-L24 USA version, I now have EMUI 9.1.0 by installing BND-L21 9.1.0.141(C432E2) ROM using the Chimera tool.

Hope this helps.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] Kr1msonReaper:
Thanks for the advice! I repeated the process you provided and so im not bricked, I have all the partitions of ice cream sandwich. The only problem is, the dload method and upgrade from sd card thing stops at 5% and when i use dload, it says image verification failed, because i was trying to upgrade to Nougat. I have the bootloader and stock recovery though. How did you upgrade to pie after doing this?

Also how is pie? maybe I'll install the pie rom for L21 and use english. I actually intall the AL10 once haha. It was horrible. Almost nothing worked and it tried to prevent booting into recovery or bootloader.

Thanks!

-Kr1msonReaper
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] DBxda7x:
dload method does NOT work on this particular phone. I have tried it multiple times.

Best way is to find the ROM that works for your phone. I have tried a lot of the ROMs for this phone including all of the ones in the OpenKirin website, like the Ressurect, Lineage and etc. those do not work, it just bootloops. But the L21 worked perfectly, only issue is that you need to flash every partition (system, boot, recovery, ram_disk and etc.) and then do a factory reset. If you do not do a factory reset after the installation in will not boot.

Just go to Firmware finder, get EMUI 9.1 ROM, extract all .img files and flash them in using fastboot.

Good luck!
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] Kr1msonReaper:
Thanks for the advice! I'll try it soon, but as far as i know, from here in ice cream sandwich, it says image verification failed when flashing recovery and other partitions except not system or boot and others for some reason.

Actually I've previously installed RR and Lineage ROMs--maybe you forgot that they must not be flashed in TWRP? Anyway, thanks! Pie sounds like it must be the best option here. I'll go ahead and install it. Oh, and just so you know, the dload method can work on the Honor 7x but you have to flash a patched version of the recovery called BND-RECOVERY-NoCheck.img, except I only have the oreo one so it can't help me.

Thanks!

[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] teatimecrumpet:
Hi, I have a BND-L34 (mate se) and could use some help. I'm not very good with rooting but I followed the directions found here

https://www.desinerd.co.in/how-to-huawei-mate-se-root-twrp-recovery/

which was mentioned from this XDA post about unlocking the bootloader and rooting

https://xdaforums.com/honor-7x/how-to/how-to-unlock-huawei-bootloader-removal-t3780903

So I was able to write the TWRP from the guide on the "recovery_ramdisk" but not the second partition like the guide mentioned. So if try to boot into TWRP I get an error 11 and error 2.

Phone appears to be working otherwise.

I suspect that if I were to ever factory reset the phone I would be in the same situation as you were. Could you tell me how you flashed the EMUI 9 files? Like what the commands were? thanks in advance.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] Kr1msonReaper:
[MENTION=4847169]teatimecrumpet[/MENTION] we have the same phones :D. . . .

Ok so, first, are you on Oreo or something lower? If you're on oreo I have the proper TWRP img for the ramdisk partition. If you flashed your TWRP to recovery but not recovery_ramdisk, I recommend reflashing the stock recovery and then flashing mine to ramdisk. But you shouldn't worry, you can't even factory reset anyway, if you've overwritten your recovery. So if you say your phone's fine now it should continue to work. I have not yet upgraded to Pie like [MENTION=10138183]DBxda7x[/MENTION] suggested, but I will soon.

In any case, here's the TWRP you must flash to the ramdisk.

[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] teatimecrumpet:
Hey Krimson, thanks for the reply. It's been awhile since I had that error...it's a bit hazy. But I'm on oreo now and am trying to either downgrade back to nougat or try to flash oreo again. Reason being the phone was working fine but now my GPS doesn't really work and I can't pick up any satellites and I kind of need google maps to work.

I tried to use hisuite to upgrade to the newest firmware and downgrade to nougat but no luck it just boots to TWRP.

When I first rooted I know I flashed recovery and recovery2 (but recovery2 turned out to be erecovery on oreo...I remember it was a pain trying to figure out.)

I can't seem to find a simple guide to follow and like I said I'm not very good with this. Do you think you could give me the commands to either flash what you have or do the pie update? I'm totally fine going back to stock and then trying to root Nougat again.

Thanks!
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] Kr1msonReaper:
Hey, I know it's been a while, it is pretty hazy. I actually got into a situation where i bricked my phone from trying to downgrade from Pie to Nougat directly. Don't EVER do that. If you're on Oreo now, I know that there are some guides on how to use HWOTA to downgrade to nougat pretty easily. Here's the link:

Anyone going to create a Manila Touchflo for the BA?:confused:
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] wmvfan:
i think that is not so easy (impossible ?)

manila is just for vga (640x480) screen.

so it can´t be displayed on a blueangel´s qvga (320x240) screen.

manila need much graphic power.

the diamond use a special 3d graphic chip to render it.

i think manila required biotouch, too.

the blueangel display driver is not compatible with biotouch
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] egzthunder1:
We have the regular TouchFlo interface working for virtually every device (haven't tried it in my Wallaby :D ), which also uses BioTouch (afaik), so I don't think that would be a problem. As far as the qvga thing, look at this (from the Kaiser forums)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=395337&page=8

Apparently, there are a few guys in there that might be able to pull this one out.

The only thing that I will agree with you is the fact that we have a huge disadvantage hardware-wise (3D acceleration to be more precise), even when compared with the Kaiser... but don't let your hope down. Someone will come up with something. For instance, ThrottleLauncher 0.9.1 has it pretty close.

I still think that my BA has one more upgrade to go through before I can no longer upgrade(WM7, here I go) :D

[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] Burningman92:
hi everyone,

I have recently bought a mi max 3. Miui is far from my favourite however, and i am looking for a good non-google custom rom. There are so many choices for roms that i find it difficult to decide, and trying every single one seems a tedious task that is hardly worthwile. I have a week to decide, as xiaomi made me wait to unlock the bootloader. Obvious sidenote: I intend to root the device as well.

The custom rom i am looking for should support the following features (in order of importance)

- works without Gapps

- strong encryption (password different from lockscreen)

- decent battery performance (longer lasting battery has preference)

- fast and smooth (the more lightweight the better)

- gesture support (should be standard anyway (the screen is huge, i can't be bothered to reach for the navbar :p)

- due to rollback protection, it needs to be at least android pie/ android 10(?) - is it worth waiting for android 10 custom rom releases?

I know many of these requirements can be met by using apps as well, but if it is included or easier with the custom rom it certainly has my preference.

I am currently looking at:

- lineage OS (has been my driver for the past years)

- AEX

- Syberia OS

- evolution X

- havoc OS

- resurrection remix

additions are more than welcome

note: i assume TWRP recovery and Magisk for root are still decent options. if not, please let me know :)
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] Skyllery:
Don't worry about Anti Rollback because it's only for miui first.

Arb lvl need to be the same to rollback on miui but never go to an older one. But since a while on miui we're still on lvl 5.. but on custom ROM it's useless.

For root as always.

Unlock bootloader

Flash orange fox (only recovery supporting encryption)

Flash magisk

Reboot

And if I were you I'll try crdroid or aosip. On my side I'm the actual maintainer of aosio derpfest and stay on it since months. RR is a bit heavy and Cerberus is very clean if you want less. For those I build or builded... For the others Evolution x and havoc are very featured. And aex is lighter than oreo version if you already tried it in past.

You got others ROMs for that consider to join my channel [MENTION=260303]Nitrogen[/MENTION]cloud on telegram. Gismobe post more there than xda.

For nogapps just don't flash any gapps. Most of the ROM are provided without any

Regards
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] Burningman92:
Thanks for the reply.

I got an error trying to check arb on my device, but if it does not matter for custom roms that's peachy af.

Q1: I remember encrypting my previous phone which had TWRP on it, that seemed to work fine. Did not know about orange fox previously, will look into that. How is Orange fox different from regular TWRP (specifically with encryption)?

Q2: In terms of built-in app permission control, how do cerberus, AEX, crdroid and aosip compare?

Q3: and (last question, promise) with regards to updates, I noticed aosip derpfest does not support ota updates, and crdroid seems to support ota. my previous experience with dirty flashing updates, is best summarized as: "chugging down coffee at midnight trying to unbrick my phone". Not looking forward to that -again, so i prefer the possibility of OTA updates. what would you recommend?

Thanks for your quick reply, appreciate it.

Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Android 10 update (One UI 2.0)

Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 is eligible for Android 10

Q2 2020 release is expected for the device

Android 10 update will be called One UI 2.0

By rolling out Android Pie update even for the budget range of devices that were 2 years old, Samsung has proven that it takes good care of its products. Tab S4 was launched in August 2018 and is only a single update and a year old.

Hence, we fully expect Samsung to release the Android 10 update for the Tab S4. As the Tab S4 won’t be among the first few devices to get Samsung’s Android 10 update, called One UI 2.0, you may expect the update to arrive in Q2 2020.

Though, there are slim chances of the*update being released earlier*than expected because Samsung seems to be doing very well in the update department at the moment by already handing out*T-Mobile*Android 10 build for testing on*Galaxy S10*and*Galaxy Note 10

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] ultramag69:
Which is still fairly crappy as they have released UI 2.1...

You'd think we would at least get that since we will likely never see another update though they may release a security update around December if we're lucky... Though I'm not holding my breath...
