You have activate developer options and inside OEM unlocked and usb debugging ? Or try to get back to android 8 maybe is possible because you have beta firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] bkob024:
Wouldnt even have gotten this far if I didnt have ADB debugging enabled. As I said before several times. Odin wont flash anything. I've already tried to go back to 8. If you can tell me how to get back to 8 without Odin that would be nice. But i need links to files not unhelpful text that tells me that I need to find something. Thats the whole issue. It's almost impossible to find the correct files unless someone who already knows gives you a link to them. I thought that's one thing XDA used to be good for but I guess that isnt the case anymore.

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Cyclone Emperor:
https://firmware.science

Download the update from this website then follow the instructions at the bottom of the page. This is the only thing I can think of if Odin isn't working
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] spawnlives:
If your stuck on setup connection on Odin some things to try assuming using windows

Use Odin 3.13.1 ( or modified Odin 3.13.1B )

If you have smart switch/Kies install, un-install it.

USB cable i'm assuming is a data cable.

USB port try plugging into USB 2 port.

Plug phone directly into PC not any hubs.

Use latest Samsung USB drivers.

Run Odin in administrator mode.

Boot into download mode then reboot back into download mode again.

Maybe turn off any anti-virus programs.

Try a different PC.

These are a few things to try as failing at setup connection can be a common with some people and can vary with the PC.

Also note having OEM unlocked or USB debugging has no bearing when flashing stock firmware with Odin.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] bkob024:
OMG. Ok I'll try all those things and get back to you.

That ... I've the Moto G6 rooted with Magisk Manager.

The issue is that from the TWRP I deleted some folders and when I started again I couldn't detect neither the MicroSD or the MicroSIM, therefore the IMEI disappeared.

I've the IMEI in the original cell phone case.

Anyone know what I've to do to recover the IMEI again and have signal?

[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] CMBoii:
Hi all.

I've just bought this device. When I first launched it, it was on miui9, i updated to miui 10 stable 10.0.3.0 (8.1 Android) via ota. Then, I saw that I could also upgrade to miui 11. However, I've read that battery is worse than Miui 10 so I don't know If I should install it.

I've unlocked the recovery because I want to try some custom roms but I'm a bit scared of the anti-rollback.

Could you please tell me what should I do?

Thanks all.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] tsongming:
Before you do anything you need to figure out which device you own. You bought it and you already unlocked the bootloader? That generally takes 360 hours, are you sure it wasn't already unlocked? If it was unlocked you probably have a Chinese device, and in that case be extremely careful about not relocking the bootloader. if the phone is not bound to your account ( linked to you personally) then you could brick it and have no recourse.

if you unlocked it yourself and you have a locked device , then don't worry about anti-rollback. So far it has not been implemented. Next, you heard wrong about Miui 11, its battery is equally as good. Although the best version of Miui and currently the most stable Android 10 overall is Xiaomi.EU which is a custom rom based on the china beta but globalised, with Google services.

Again do your homework, avoid extremely old posts that are no longer relevant. Never attempting upgrading your screen refresh and never flash someone else's persist image and you will be good. This community has tons of infor...read a lot and take your own notes.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] CMBoii:
Hi Thanks for your reply.

My device is global version (not just global ROM, I do know the difference)

I am unlocked the bootloader using the Xiaomi official tool, i had to activate the developer tools on the device and check the bootloader status and the button which was there ( U know what I mean). Besides, when I turn on the device it says unlocked.

I've read that miui 11 has kinda bad sot because of miui and/or the bug with WhatsApp. So I don't know if I have to update via ota and If I do that I don't know if I will have any problems while trying to install a custom ROM.

I've had a Xiaomi before so I know that I shouldn't install strange zips.

Thank you
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] tsongming:
Yes, the last build of Xiaomi.EU had worse SOT than usual ( about 5 hours. However, the issue was only with one of the weekly builds) I personally resolved that issue for myself by flashing the kernel from the previous build. Also, Xiaomi.EU is updated every Thursday so later today there will be a new build that will very likely resolve the issue. On the other hand the stable builds do not have an issue with SOT. At least not in my experience. I have averaged around 8 to 9 hours SOT.

I don't use Whatsapp, so I can't help you with that.

Since you were previously on stock you will need to backup your data, if you are still using stock, backup to MiCloud as well. This way if you use a Miui based rom you can quickly restored most of your data and partial settings. You will also need to format use storage (type yes, reboot to recovery)
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] CMBoii:
I see.

I've just updated to miui 11 stable via ota.

BTW, Is TWRP the best recovery for this device isn't it? I've read that exist other types of recovery (not CWM but someones).

And my last question, I cannot find which version of gcam fits on miui 11 (Android Pie). Is there any thread, telegram channel?

Thanks for all.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] tsongming:
Personally I use the TWRP that I posted here : I talked to a few friends / android developers on other devices and several of them believe that this a TWRP issue.

I have not had any more of these issues since using this TWRP https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=80952013&postcount=121

If using AOSP, you should use the official version.

The best Gcam ( I Think is by Sanity )

https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-san1ty/

FYI the builds made for the Poco F1 and Razer 2 are also compatible.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] CMBoii:
Thank for helping me.

As I've posted in the official twrp thread, I was able to install twrp and get to it but after power off the phone and try to get there again miui recovery was there instead.

I've installed the last build of twrp 3.3.1.1.

Maybe If I install magisk via TWRP I will have twrp *forever*.(?)

Thank you man :)
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] tsongming:
No problem.

After installing TWRP, you must initially install Root and then reboot to recovery.

Often you will see a message asking if you want to install the TWRP manager, click those boxes and then proceed to rebooting to recovery.

If you are using the full stock Rom, you must have root, so anytime that you flash the official Global stable rom, or an update, flash root again...unless you see via the Recovery terminal that Root maintained it's persistence.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] CMBoii:
Okey, I'll try tomorrow again.

Thanks.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Nortonic:
Hey all.

I've created a problem with my S8, don't know what to do from here.

Simply put, i had the encryption before booting on, always worked fine. I also clear the phones cache once a year.

I went into recovery, and cleared the cache partition, then on reboot it just keeps rebooting, shows the S8 screen, goes black, buzzes twice and repeats.

I've tried factory resetting in recovery, which worked, but still bootlooping. (At the bottom of the Recovery Menu, i also see the message: dm-verity verification failed)

I called Samsung about the issue, they told me to take it to the nearest authorized repair facility, which i did and they said it would be hardware without even diagnosing it. So i took it back home, and tried a few things myself, i loaded up Odin, with the exact firmware version i am on, and it will unpack it all, but always fail. Odin sees the phone fine, and download mode works. Ill provide a picture of it for reference below.

tl;dr cleared cache, sent it into bootloop, tried repair shop and flashing with odin, no avail.

Not looking to void warranty or trip anything also. It is out of its one year warranty period of course, but i've had Samsung honour a S7edge screen and battery at about 1.8 year out of warranty.

Whats my best option? Is the encryption lock preventing Odin from flashing? I have the code, as it is my phone, wondering if there is another way to enter it as the prompt won't come up due to the bootloop

> And the phone won't turn on only in fastboot mode

I don't quite understand, but you probably bricked your phone.

Restore stock ROM with Mi Flash, then reboot into bootloader by turning off the phone from the OS and holding volume Down and pressing the power until the FASTBOOT logo appears.

Then do "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" and start pressing volume Up (not Down!) and type "fastboot reboot" while holding the volume button.

It will go into TWRP.

Hi, [MENTION=6924894]rehan992[/MENTION],

How is it not working? Did you try it on a Global variant of the phone as I have written in the post?

Your profile says you live in India, and presumably have an India variant of the phone, in which case that is an unsupported configuration and the recovery may or may not work.

If you still want to get it working, you can also try flashing this vbmeta image: https://projects.milankragujevic.com/olivelite/vbmeta.img

fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img

Then retry flashing TWRP.

As I have written in the blog post, the recovery works on my device.
