[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Robbo.5000:
I've not heard anything about the global release, but as someone that doesn't use MIUI I don't go looking for information, so there could be some info around. Apparently there's no noticeable difference between EU and global versions for this phone, so now the EU version is released I don't think it would be too long for the global version to appear, but that's pure guesswork.

You can install TWRP now, it requires adb and fastboot. If you don't have these on your PC then search the xda forums for 'minimal adb'. The official post will give you all the details. Ordinarily whenever you boot MIUI ithe system checks the integrity of the recovery partition and, if it has changed, it will restore stock recovery. Therefore immediately after installing TWRP you'll need to install Magisk, which will then automatically protect the TWRP installation.

Copy your Magisk installation file onto the phone

Boot the phone into fastboot mode and connect to the PC.

To make life easier, copy the TWRP image file to the same folder that has adb and fastboot and rename the file as TWRP.img

Open command prompt and navigate to the adb/fastboot installation folder.

fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img

If you're using PowerShell then you'll need to qualify the location of fastboot and TWRP

.\fastboot flash recovery .\TWRP.img

When that's finished and still in fastboot mode.

Press and hold the vol+ and power buttons.

Keep holding both until the phone vibrates and the initial splash screen appears.

Release the power button, but keep holding vol+ for a second or 2.

You should now have booted into TWRP if everything went OK.

Go to install and select the Magisk installation file on the phone.

Confirm the selection.

Once that's finished you can reboot the phone.

If all's OK you should now have TWRP and Magisk installed.

Alright. Thanks for the instructions, I will try this.

Just to make sure: Is this the correct TWRP image: TWRP 3.3.1-22 Unofficial by mauronofrio ?

Where can I find the correct magisk files for my device? Do I need magisk or magisk manager?

Would be sick if you could link me the correct ones :)

Cheers
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Robbo.5000:
EDIT: JUST READ THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH MAGISK 20.1 AND MIUI 11.

DOWNLOAD MAGISK 19.4

That is the correct TWRP.

Only ever get Magisk from here

https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk

There are no device specific versions, just one size fits all. Download the latest 20.1 Magisk installer zip to flash in TWRP. It will install Magisk and Magisk manager at the same time. Also download the uninstaller zip at the same time, just in case. If, for any reason, you need to uninstall then it's there ready.

If you need to know more about Magisk, follow the link on github to the xda official thread, it has very good information.
[Google Pixel 4 Themes, Apps, and Mods] flar2:
Button Mapper 1.40 introduces support for Motion Sense on the new Pixel 4/4XL.

The way this works is you swipe your hand in the air over the phone to perform an action. You can swipe in any direction, but swiping left or right seems to work best. I originally planned to remap each direction separately, but found this was too unreliable to be practical for most.

Motion Sense must be enabled in System Settings, and the "Reach to check phone" option must be enabled, or this won't work.

The motion gestures will work with the screen off, on the lockscreen and on the homescreen. The sensor is not active within other apps.

Setup

For non rooted devices, requires one-time adb setup to allow Button Mapper to read logcat output.

Rooted devices can work right away.

Options

Turn on screen: For rooted users, there is an option to turn the screen on before performing an action.

Play sound on action: Makes a sound whenever a swipe action is performed. This is helpful to indicate that the swipe was detected, especially when the screen is off.

Disable while music is playing: This will stop Button Mapper from performing the assigned action while music is playing. This allows you to continue using the built-in previous and next track gestures while listening to music. When not listening to music, Button Mapper will resume remapping.

Tips

A good way to test this out is to assign the "Toggle flashlight" action. It's a quick visual to help you get a feel for how the motion sensing works.

[LG G Stylo Questions & Answers] camm44:
i bricked one 2 years ago never found a solution and it definitely showed 9008 mode, this newer one i have now recently also bricked after going from kingroot to magisk and it failing to a bootloop (without recovery ability or fastboot, only download)

i then used fwul to pull all but 2 partitions off the phone and reflashed recovery and boot to the device in hopes that it would resolve the soft brick. i need the sms and mms from the phone, only reason i didnt just wipe and redo.

the phone does not show up as edl or 9008 or whatever it shows up as androidnet and lgup picks it up as an unknown devices but definitely shows it. fwul shows it as lg device but i cant mount nor can i do anything with it. if there is no battery in phone and i plug it in i get a flashing battery error/ no battery warning basically.

with battery in its black while plugged in, no response nothing just shows up on computer

now when i put battery in with it not plugged in and push power button i get a weak vibrate

if i do the same thing with any combo of up down or plugged in i get nothing

my other device had a high frequency sound when battery would go in very quiet tho. this one does not

any ideas would be amazing

thanks

ps i need the messages i have data and system dump. the phoner doesnt matter just the mms and sms

no encryption no passwords i think it was on 5.1.1

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dougbilski:
I have been looking for some time now at how to upgrade my Dell Axim x51v to WM6. I'm pretty sure I understand the process with the boot loader, etc. I do have one question, and I beg the indulgence of you WAY more experienced folks...

What is the newest / most stable (etc.) version of WM6 available? I have downloaded Football's version, but I see references to others - like makuu and LennySH. Does it matter which I use? Was Football's the first, and others have improved on it? I'm just not sure which version to download and install...

Any advice?

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mphayvanh:
Variety is the spice of life.

I have been using Makuu's WM6.1 Pro 'pure' for quite some time and I have not experienced any issues. It comes with TCPMP (which I prefer), Magic Button (Do not use) and rlToday (use on several occasions). I like this rom. No major issues at all.

Minor detail: TCPMP pre-rotates to portrait at every start.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dougbilski:
Thanks...

I appreciate the thoughts! I don't know what TCPMP is, though - sorry... Sounds like something related to networking??? Sorry to be such a newbie!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] crap_dude:
TCPMP : The Core Portable Media Player. Breath of fresh air compared to Windows Media Player ! I think you should try Football's WM6.1 A07, instead of any WM6. It works great on my x51v and looks damn nice! Good luck !!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dougbilski:
Oh!

Thanks! I knew that I should know what that means! :) I appreciate the help and advice. I downloaded Football's, BUT I downloaded A03 - I didn't realize he was up to A07! I'm downloading it right now and trying to decide whether or not to go for it. I bought the Axim from my brother, and he paid for extended warranty service. I have another year left on it. I read that some folks say I shouldn't mess with it until I run out of warranty. I'm not sure what to do... IF I do install Football's WM6, how hard is it to roll back to factory settings?

[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] ClaudioG123:
So i flashed The pixelrom for mi8, and so far so good, but now i want to install magisk and twrp is gone, it was replaced with the stock recovery, and now when i try to do the exact same process with xiaomitoolv2 he detects my phone has pixel 4 and doesn't detect, i tried fastboot but it doesn't work either, Im running xubuntu x64

https://i.imgur.com/J9E6QmWl.png

EDIT: AFTER SEEING SOME POSTS HERE ON XDA I MANAGED TO USE XIAOMI MI FLASH TOOL WITH SUCCESS!, I NEEDED A USB HUB AND CONNECT THE PHONE IN FASTBOOT AND THEN APPLY THE STOCK IMAGES!, ANYONE WHO NEEDS HELP THIS SOLUTION CAN WORK ( ALL MY 3 USB PORTS DIDN'T WORK, WITH HUB IT WORKED )
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] tsongming:
You do not have fastboot? ( think its more likely that you just can see the fastboot screen, but the phone is likely in fastboot mode. Because it sounds like you flashed a custom splash screen, which is causing your fastboot screen to not come up.

Also It seems that you missed some of the steps outlined in the install instructions for the Pixel rom ( I assume the Pixel 3 Q rom?)

You must install Magisk on that rom, you must use recommended TWRP,

I haven't used Ubuntu for flashing Roms recently so I can't provide solid recent steps on Ubuntu.

So I would suggest using a PC , ( surely you know someone with a PC) Enter fastboot, then you can verify that the phone actually can enter fastboot by checking Device manager, or by verifying that the phone is seen by ADB

If you are unable to access fastboot, you will need to go into EDL mode. Once in EDL

Download fastboot dipper images rom, and use flashall.bat method to restore the phone.

Download dipper_global_images_9.6.27_20190627.0000.00_9.0_global or a newer fastboot rom such as 10 .3..5 But It has to be a fastboot rom and not a Recovery rom

Unpack the rom twice on your desktop

You will be left with a folder and inside you will see batch files and a image folder.

Doubleclick Flashall.bat ( be careful on what you click, you want flashall.bat only) with the phone attached an in Recovery mode, fastboot or EDL

Flashall.bat is a batch script that will wipe your phone and restore all images, and then boot to system.

You should then Setup rom

Afterwards install TWRP and root then create a full Twrp backup and save to your PC.

This way you will have a quick solution if you ever need it again in the future.

Enjoy a working phone

Rom Link : https://bigota.d.miui.com/9.6.27/di...27_20190627.0000.00_9.0_global_30e0fc22ef.tgz

Any images fastboot rom will work, you can use the one I listed above or you can use the recent 10.3.5 Stable images rom, just find the link via Google.

I just spent 20 minutes typing this, so be considerate and click thanks or send me a beer if you want.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] ClaudioG123:
Tried that but this happens in the batch file, also it goes to the fastboot screen where it appears fastboot and the figure, but when i press the batch he leaves that screen and goes to black screen with on top saying press to restart or shutdown, and that error occurs on the batch, even if the phone isn't conected it gets me that error
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] ClaudioG123:
And also I only went Linux because on Windows the phone was getting detected but wasn't working, and Linux was detecting and working with xiaomitoolv2

I will try on Linux to see If the error persists, but that error can he there because the phone, the brand, model and codename are the same has the pixel 4
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] Agimax:
If you are using linux and successful rebooted the phone into fastboot mode, just try to replace the recovery.

Download the recent version of TWRP for your phone and move it to the fastboot directory then open a shell in that directory.

Type in your shell: "sudo fastboot flash recovery yourtwrpimage.img"

Now, unplug the USB and you MUST reboot and immediately hold down the upvolume and power until the TWRP boots. If you miss it, the system will replace the stock recovery image again and you will have to start over.

You can then individually flash the partition images of your choice or ROM ZIP file, but you will still have to flash the full fastboot images after you get the phone recognizing as an mi8.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] ClaudioG123:

[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] ClaudioG123:

[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] tsongming:
Did you try as [MENTION=2158849]Agimax[/MENTION] suggested? You have shown that the device is seen in fastboot. If you can push recovery to the phone then the issue will be easily resolved.

You should also be able to use this modified MiFlash : https://xdaforums.com/android/software/tool-miflash-linux-t3708847

( Maybe you are already using this?)

I have also had the issue in the past where fastboot was available but attempting to push recovery failed. In some cases trying alternate versions of TWRP would work, and for me fastboot flashall will usually always work.

Another option is to push the images from the images folder individually. if one fails go to the next and then come back and retry the images that failed the first time. (Edit: I just reread Agimax post above, he mentioned this already.)

If you are in EDL mode you should be able to restore the stock images without receiving the error message You can enter EDL without opening the device, either by using a EDL deep flash cable or https://xdaforums.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/guide-reboot-to-edl-mode-fastboot-test-t3398718

Another option ( requires a PC) is QPST, which I have used a lot in the past, its quick and easy to use. : https://miui.blog/any-devices/qualcomm-qpst-tool/
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] ClaudioG123:
Your solution worked with the phone in fastboot, but i had to try a usb hub, that's all, has for roms, experienced both of pixelrom3 and havoc and didn't conviced me enough, i find miui 11 of xiaomi.eu more good looking and doesn't have bugs, and thank you, you are a lifesafer, if it wasn't for that i would have never flashed stock rom back

[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] tsongming:
That's great sorry for being late to respond, I haven't had time to check XDA for a couple of days. But I an really glad that you got everything sorted out.

BTW, I agree about Xiaomi.EU, and I also find it to be the most stable...by far. Plus, it's obviously the most up to date. No doubt that AOSP roms are fun, but also very unpredictable. I keep Xaiomi.EU on mi daily driver, ( the Mi8) and I tinker around with AOSP roms on my old phones.

Take care
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] ClaudioG123:
Currently on miui 11 on mine, and it's perfect, like the design vs miui 10 from official, it's fast and stable, only thing is that some apps that use gps are sometimes bugged, and does your mi8 drain battery a bit faster than in miui 10?
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] tsongming:
Yeah, I don't think that they have that part completely sorted yet. I definitely had better battery life on the last Xiaomi.EU Pie rom. But its not too bad with this latest version. Checking Gsam battery manager just now my average is 7HR's 6 Min SOT Whereas with the Miui 11 Xiaomi EU Chinese Stable rom, I averages about 10 hrs SOT ( If I remember correctly)

Personally, I am not having any app issues.

Usually if I had a permissions issues after restoring apps, I would just uninstall and reinstall the app and that will usually take care of any issues. Another thing to check , is t make sure that any problem apps have the right permissions enabled.

thanks for any pointers

UPDATE.

so at this point i dont know whats going on. at first the phone was not doing anything, but now i can get into the bootloader menu. i have tryed most the options other then factory wipe since i need to save whats on the phone.

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] berainxda:
I've recently run into very annoying behavior with my phone.

If I have an app open (let's say my phone app) and the screen times out and eventually locks, when I go to unlock the phone I'm greeted with the home screen. It does not return to the open app as I would normally expect. In the case of the phone app if I am actively on a call it will show a bubble for the phone controls on my home screen after unlock since the app is still in use.

TLDR:

1) Open phone app

2) screen times out and locks

3) unlock goes to home screen, not open app

To be clear, I would expect the unlock to go directly back to the app and screen I was using before the phone locked.

I am on Android 10 (QP1A.191005.007.A1). Timing wise I'm not certain but it may have coincided with the latest security patch in October. I also added VMWare Workspace One around this time to get access to work email.

I have started the phone in safe mode to see if this would result in different behavior but I got the same result.

Has anyone else experienced this or know what might be causing it? This is making the phone a pain to use since I need to renavigate back to the app I was using every time I unlock my phone. It makes managing phone calls a pain.

Thanks for any help.
[LG G8X ThinQ Questions & Answers] Maegnum:
Knowing that LG Canada like to block any access to the bootloader, based on previous experiences with older LG phones, what are the chances that LG might leave this phone rootable, so we can remove bloatware, and maybe even try to install more vanilla versions of Android onto this device.

Really liking the idea of the device, but been rather spoiled with 2 pixels back to back, and having all the updates asap is sure nice.
[LG G8X ThinQ Questions & Answers] Negan:
If you're hoping to have root access then this is not the device for you. In all likelihood no one will even be trying to gain root that knows enough about those type of exploits to even try something. You can install unwanted apps via adb though.

I have the g8x. You can unlock the bootloader if you want to. There is a toggle for OEM unlock in developer options.

[IMG="enable OEM unlock toggle button"]https://imgshare.io/images/2019/11/12/Enable-oem-unlock.png[/IMG]
[LG G8X ThinQ Questions & Answers] Maegnum:
Thank you both for the info!! I was hoping there might be something to both remove bloatware, and also HOPEFULLY (!!) get a more vanilla Android experience, which it's looking like I can somewhat do!

After seeing more videos on how the software works, I'm thinking it looks like you need the LG skin to be able to fully utilize the 2nd screen, which is the whole point of the phone.

So, next step is to pop into a local store and try to get my hands on one in the flesh and see if it's what I'm looking for.
[LG G8X ThinQ Questions & Answers] Negan:
That toggle in developer options is not what you think it is. The device is locked down tight. Root will likely never happen. Almost every device as of android 8 has that toggle but few can actually be unlocked
[LG G8X ThinQ Questions & Answers] Maegnum:
Ohhhhh, okay, so the OEM unlock is more for allowing the device to be CARRIER unlocked as opposed to bootloader unlocked (presuming I'm reading this correctly)?
[LG G8X ThinQ Questions & Answers] Negan:
No it's still for bootloader unlocking. But it's really just there for show. So for example a 1+ that doesn't have a locked bootloader; in order for the fastboot cmd to actually work that switch must be in the on position. But if a device has a locked bootloader, often that switch is still there but it won't actually do anything. It's somewhat confusing but that's just how it is now. For me I buy LG devices for their features and theme system. Regardless of what many say it really does have the best and most advanced theming system out of box. I have a theme partnership with samsung too and lg is light years ahead of them.
