[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Robbo.5000:
Yes flashing the whole fastboot ROM does add the risk, if you forget to change the flash option, but you are guaranteed a clean slate and so less likely to have any niggling issues that nobody else has. I would bet large sums of money that many of the issues you see on here, where only one person has some problem and everyone else is fine, would be solved by fastboot flashing MIUI before installing the ROM of choice.

If you know what you're doing and know when you'll be OK with what you've got and know when it's best to start clean, then going with the vendor and firmware is easier.

But if your unsure and new to flashing on Android phones, I will always suggest go with the overkill and know you've got the clean slate to start with.

---------- Post added at 10:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:36 AM ----------

It's sounds like the main issue is stock recovery is being restored. This is something that MIUI will do when it boots up.

When you first install TWRP you cannot boot into MIUI before booting to TWRP as you instantly lose TWRP. So you need to boot into TWRP first in order to do something to prevent it being overwritten.

Options are

1

fastboot boot TWRP.img

2 Use the button combo whilst still in fastboot - power and vol+, hold both until the phone vibrates and the initial logo appears.

Now to keep TWRP you need to either flash a custom ROM, flash Magisk or flash the dm-verity script.

In your case you want to flash LOS, so now you've booted into TWRP go ahead and continue with the steps given.

Also, wait until after you've formatted data before copying everything over. You can access the phone as an MTP device when in TWRP, so you'll be able to connect it to a PC and drag everything across, or you can stick everything on a USB OTG pen, if you have one, TWRP can read data from them too.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] BJack0:
The exact problem I have is that I cant transfer any files to the device after formatting the data. I follow the steps correctly and I get into TWRP successfully and then everyone has told me to format the data then install lineage but I cant install the OS if formatting the data removes it.

Get device into fastboot

Flash revocery with TWRP

power the device off

hold volume up and power

boot into custom recovery

format data

move lineageOS onto my device

install lineageOS

reboot

done.

This is the list of exact actions I am doing with no results is there something I am missing or something that is in the wrong order.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] ishaqtkr:
You connect your phone to computer while in recovery to transfer the OS zip
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] :
After format data, reboot your device into recovery again and transfer LOS, gapps and all files you need.

Format data kills the storage.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Robbo.5000:
I always used to reboot from TWRP back in to TWRP after formatting data, but I've recently seen someone saying that they just unmount data then remount it again. I haven't tried it myself but it certainly makes sense and would be quicker too.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] ishaqtkr:
Yes I did that and it worked, unmounting and remounting helps detect the storage in PC
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] :
Yes that works. Tried it myself but prefer to reboot into recovery again.:laugh:

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] DSTNMZ:
I have an unlocked H932 that I have been using in Mexico without any problem but after upgrading to Pie i can't find the option to enable VoLTE (my carrier supports the function VoLTE).

With Oreo there was no problem and VoLTE worked perfectly but now when making a call it changes from 4G to 3G, is it a known issue or is it just my phone?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] TheDannemand:
I just asked my wife who recently updated her H932 to Pie, running it on Red Pocket GSMA (AT&T). She's not seeing the VoLTE option either.

My guess is T-Mobile took it out and only shows it when connected to the TMO network. Or they just enable VoLTE automatically on their network without displaying the option. Like most companies, carriers will do whatever it takes to avoid having to compete on price, so they're looking for any little at advantage they can come up with to differentiate and keep customers on their network.

FWIW, VoLTE never worked on Oreo either with my H932 on Red Pocket GSMA because AT&T reserves VoLTE for post paid customers. I can enable it on the phone, but it doesn't do anything. I am told it DOES work on Red Pocket GSMT (T-Mobile) which is a pretty good deal for such a low-priced service.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] HKSpeed:
nevermind....
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] BROKEN1981:
Yep, I'm on T-Mobile and I don't have the option either.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] crumbling9999:
Try messing with the operator parameter in build.prop, OPEN/NAO should unlock it, assuming VoLTE is available on the free market US998 version

I have a solution for you . Download new torrent "iGO 8 - without installation.rar".

copy iGO 8 on your device , edit the sys.txt file and remove this entry :

Now just copy what you need from iGO 2008/iGO8/content... to your device iGO 8/content...

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] KukurikU:
I am Happy to inform you that your list is not update. you can add HTC Athena and HTC P3600 (Trinity).

interesting info: working in Athena when not installed in SD. working from microdrive.

i've also heard (hate say something from what i "heard" but if it's true is real an important piece of info) that nav'ngo will install on Diamond if you'll pay them a visit (Hertzelia, Israel). Going to pay them a visit next week and update you.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] vr6only:
His "solution" doesn't work either!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] cina:
Probably on startup iGo checks for a SDCard reader (not the card itself) and if none exists it will exit without any further notice. This explains why can we fire up iGO without a card on devices that has an SD slot. Does anyone knows a device without SDCard (internal reader can be a trick!) reader that executes any version of iGO? Any software that can emulate a reader?

If this is the case it can be cracked easily but I cannot debug iGO8 on my device. Anyone able to do this?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] KukurikU:
smart.....:) stay with us please ;)

i like the idea of fooling the igo, making think that there is a sd reader somewhere in the vicinity... makes sense. that's why athena can use igo...

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] KukurikU:
you are sooooooo innocent....the working version is all over the internet for at least three month...

interesting that navngo was developed in israel and israel seems to be the only country that even after the official release has no navngo for sale. i doubt it is going to be only 2-3 days. they are still "testing". when they'll be ready they find very hard to sell it because 7o% of the potential users has already downloaded and using the program. a typical "missing the train" case.

i'll certainly buy it but only if is going to work in diamond. i also hope that will not have some stupid IM based protection and i'll be able to flash and reflash my diamond without loosing the license and being forced to call the support department for renewing my license.

iGO8 is not supperted on a device without SD. Navngo will change the license rules when iPhone 3G is released. I mean we can buy iGO8 on a DVD and activate the license based not the SD deviceID. It seems navngo does not keep the Diamond market big enough to change the license politics. Anyway we are talking 2 million Diamond in this year! Strange!

I ask the Navngo shall the igo8 work on Touch Pro (Diamond with SD and keys) thay said: not yet! Even the 8.0.0.41506 release either.

How long should we wait for iGO8 works on Diamond?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] aragornol:

Why bother with 41506 ? I got the later 44366 and works a treat for me on my diamond.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] aragornol:
Because when we discussed that the latest version was 41506 ??? Use your common sense.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Fieldfly:
Sorry, I thought that YOU might haver used some. I meant 44366 being newer shows up on more sites if you google it, hence easier to find.

Edit:

Oh, Apologies cptudor didn't realise that is wasn't you, that replied to my post.

Therefore, let me help a little further. You asked for help in finding certain 'special' software, and as far as I am unwilling and unable to provide direct advice in where to get what you are looking for, I can say that links to 'special' software are generally removed once discovered. Links to later versions will have had less chance of being removed, as opposed to older versions that will have have somewhat more time to be discovered.

So, don't bother trying to find 41506, look instead for 44366. I can assure you, it works well on a Diamond.

And to aragornal: Your post was unnecessarily sarcastic, unhelpful, rude, and demonstrates to me the type of people that frequent this forum are not my kind of people, therefore I shall de-register forthwith.

Goodbye.

Hello,

I have been struggling to root my device. I have not wiped and rooted it in some time and now coming back to it again magisk keeps breaking my device.

I have clean flashed the latest android 9.0.0 build. I have flashed TWRP custom recovery 3.3.0 successfully. I have tried to flash magisk 3 times now and afterwards my phone wont boot. I originally used magisk manager to get the latest zip and patch my boot image. I then rebooted to to bootloader and ran fast boot flash boot patched_Magisk.img. This wiped out my twrp recovery and my phone wouldn't boot, i couldn't get back into twrp recovery. I reflashed latest 9.0 build and wiped everything. I flashed twrp again and tried to flash Magisk 20.0 from recovery. It was successful but again i couldn't boot into my phone and it eventually restarted back into recovery which i still had twrp this time. I then tried it again with 19.3 and the same thing happened. can anyone tell me what is going on here? What am I missing? I have been having reflash factory 9.0 build each time just to get it to remove the patched boot image and boot up again.
[Magisk] dichandcheck:
Was either the TWRP version or the two check boxes it has now to install twrp app as system. Installed 3.2.3-1 and didnt install the twrp app through the recovery check boxes and it worked.

[Samsung Galaxy A8 (2018) Questions & Answers] Zefpoes23:
I know TWRP isn't the culprit. But because of my predicament having waited well over 168 hours without a reboot (oem unlock toggle is available but still shows KG/RMM prenormal) I'm wondering if anyone can change TWRP to make the device think its an official recovery. That way I could flash it with a prenormal state as I can flash stock recovery no problem. If the device thought TWRP was official then that way I could still root and flash zip roms with a locked KG. I hope I'm making sense?
[Samsung Galaxy A8 (2018) Questions & Answers] Youdoofus:
youre not going to get the phone to think that TWRP is official. If that was possible, we would all have root and without so much as unlocking the bootloader for that matter
