[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] pedrix82:
:confused:Hello everyone, yesterday morning, Sunday 12/15/19, the system message "restart the device to make the system update effective".

So I do as I have always been.

The phone, an Mi A2, goes into bootloop and then a white screen appears on a black background with the title:

"<!> Failed to boot"

"Press the Volume keys to select then the Power button to continue.

RETRY

POWER OFF "

Choosing "RETRY" verifies bootloop 3 or 4 times and then the recovery mode screen appears which says:

"Can't Load Android system. Your data may be corrupted. You should get the message you need to perform at factory data reset and erase all user data stored on this device."

It gives me the choice between:

-Try again

-Factory data reset

Choosing "Try again" returns the same routine as when "RETRY" is selected In the previous black background screen, bootloop and then the black background white screen described at the beginning.

I MUST ACCESS AND SAVE THE VERY IMPORTANT CONTENT. :crying:

I have all the photos and videos of my newborn daughter. I usually backup but this inconvenience suddenly caught me.

I surfed and I saw that many people found this problem after an update .. but I never found any solutions. I called the Xiaomi center in Novara indicated by the site but they told me that they only serve as a collection center to send to the assistance in the company Xiaomi, saying that the assistance resets the phone to restore its functioning and does not save the data. I tried to start the fastboot, the device is recognized by the PC and shows the locked bootloader. The program MiFlash asks me to start to install a set of drivers and then immediately generate an unhandled exception and crash.

Attached the images.

Can you help me? I do not know what to do..

hey guys wats up i got a question i seen on youtube somebody had a tmobile wing but had iphone features does anybody know where i can find that program?
[Wing, P4350 General] fzzyrn:
ifonz probably or one of the other iphone emus out there

i don't like the iphone, but i'm not gonna stop you from using the ui, unlike some blatantly intolerant people here

my advice to you- search first. then ask.

welcome to xda-devs
[Wing, P4350 General] wearefree:
if you just want to iphone interface, go with ifonz.

if you liked iphone because it's finger friendless, go with pointui.

if you like to mess with your phone, go with ultimate launcher.

if you like to ride on the front of the wave, go with throttle launcher.

if you like to be adventurous, try them all.
[Wing, P4350 General] itslinx:
Or better yet, if you like the iPhone, go with the iPhone! ;)

[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] HTCDevil:
You should try to use adb in recovery, if it works, you could digit "adb pull /sdcard".
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Aerobatic:
Continue rebooting with external power on. Android One with A/B slots is supposed to reboot into previously (before OTA) active slot.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] pedrix82:
Thank you, can you explain me better what I should try to do?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] pedrix82:
Is there any guide to do that?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] HTCDevil:
I don't think so, when you are in recovery you should try to verify if your device is connected with "adb devices" and then you should use the command "adb pull /sdcard". But it usually works with custom recoveries, and if you have prevently enabled usb debugging.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Aerobatic:
First you can try to search this forum and read dozens of discussions of the same issue. Meanwhile you can plug in power adapter and reboot several times with pauses, probably sometimes switching to stock recovery and to fastboot mode, and then leave phone powered for a night.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] pedrix82:
Thanks....I will try, I don't remember if I enabled the usb debugging mode, for sure I saw with fastboot that I have the bootloader Locked.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] pedrix82:
nothing to do...i tried ADB mode, but it is not enabled, only fastboot mode where i can do nothing because the bootloader is locked.

I also tried to install the Xiaomi tool, but it doesnt recognize the device.

i dont know what to do....

Did you try the factory data reset?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] pedrix82:
Hello...ehm...not, the aim is to recover all the data, photos and documents that are stored inside...
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Zedsdeadbaby:
Same thing happened to me. You should manually switch the active partition in fastboot.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] pedrix82:
Hi, I already tried to do what you suggest, but it is not possible with the bootloader Locked.

:(

Anyway, can you tell me what I have to do to change the active partition? Maybe I don't do it as I should....
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Aerobatic:
[MENTION=6875362]pedrix82[/MENTION]: I can only repeat, though you do not read and trust:

- the only (legal*) way to save data in bootloop with locked device is to boot;

- all other options are blocked for a locked Mi A2, - resetting, unlocking, etc. will erase user data; switching Slots and/or loading TWRP need unlocked phone; stock recovery is useless;

- Android One partitions system with A/B Slots was specifically designed to solve problems of failed OTAs, see https://source.android.com/devices/tech/ota/ab and https://android.googlesource.com/pl...ware/+/master/include/hardware/boot_control.h

Which means that: if you have bootloop after OTA on full stock (and have not tampered device yourself), after numerous attempts to boot -> the bootloader MUST detect that active Slot does not have bootable OS and MUST switch to the other Slot.

(non-legal*) - or read memory chip content at low-level and decipher encrypted data.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] pedrix82:
Thanks,

It's really long time that I'm rebooting the mobile since it happened...

But cyclically and alternate I got the two image attached to the main post....
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] laviniu_c:
try a "fastboot continue" in adb
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] pedrix82:
hello everyone, update.

unfortunately I was unable to recover anything and proceeded with the factory reset.

The phone has reset and everything is working.

So I thought to try to do a file recovery as you do for deleted files.

for the various recovery applications I need to root the device.

For this phone should be really simple but I'm still stuck in.

I followed one guide, then another, and then another .... all with the same procedures.

the result is that twrp recovery, if loaded with Vol + and pwr button hangs on the custom recovery logo.

I can only start the twrp recovery installed in the secondary partition of the phone.

but from this recovery, even if I install Magisk, with a successful results from the recovery, I do not root the device. I verified root with Magisk manager and rootchecker.

Help.... thanks
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Aerobatic:
I do no believe you'll be able to undelete files after factory reset.

This guide works for everybody, except that

(1) there is obsolete "fastboot oem unlock" command stated which should better be changed to "fastboot flashing unlock", and

(2) guide does not mention that each unlock step is to be approved on phone, and

(3) guide skips step of patching stock boot.img in phone with MagiskManager, - while exactly this step creates archived copy of stock boot image in /data root, thus allowing to restore images (actually restoring stock boot image) before downloading next OTA, and

(4) only 1st variant - that is booting into patched boot image and then making "Direct Install" is safe - it allows to check that patched boot image is suitable for ROM.

IMHO that just means that you did not do your homework (I mean you have not read guides and discussions and Google info with links I provided) well enough to understand that with A/B slots partitions structure there is no separate /recovery partition in phone (instead, recovery is embedded into /boot image), and thus we cannot just "flash TWRP" into MiA2.

Instead, TWRP can only be embedded into boot image (patching previously flashed suitable boot image), which is made by installing TWRP.zip in temporarily booted TWRP.img. Thus, if you want to have both root and permanent TWRP (I still do not see why anybody needs permanent TWRP with rooted stock), first get root with patched boot image, and then install TWRP patching this Magisk-patched boot image once more.

And I do think that "TWRP 4pda edition" is working better than so called "official TWRP".
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] snfcon:
Found the solution,

First u need to get to the recovery menu by pressing vol up + power, tap it multiple times after retry boot...you have to be quick...and eventually will get to the android robot pic with "no command"....keep pressing till you get to the full recovery menu. (this might take multiple tries)

Then go to update using adb. (you need all the files for adb, usb drivers, latest mi a2 update zip, you can find tutorials in youtube/google )

after updating it should boot up fine with all data intact.

If latest update versions dont boot, try repeating will older version.

Make sure you backup everthing afterwards! and enable oem unlocking &usb debugging for potential future issues.

Hope this helps!

I know we might get Q soon, but who knows what Xiaomi brings for new bugs, so some of us might want to stay on Pie for the time being.

And as Xiaomi could not make One good Pie, I'm trying to figure out which is the best of the bad.

Please vote in the Poll above (multiple choices allowed) and tell us why below (or why a certain version certainly not).

I personally liked 10.0.2.0& 10.0.17.0; these had the least bugs in my opinion.

Hello all, only me again...

Samsung Galaxy Note 4

SM-N910F

Lineage OS 16.0

Snapdragon

As per the title, just installed lineage 16.0, poking around on the Magisk manager app, tapped the plus symbol under the module tab and somehow managed to touch the lineage .zip file (actually I did it on purpose just to test but I thought it would ask me to confirm!) and without warning, boom! it just installed it as a module (I think?) the log came up and it ran through the installation anyway. I rebooted the device and it seems to have made absolutely no difference, but my particular nature is making me want to find wherever it's been installed and remove it (to avoid problems it may cause in the future) but it's not showing up in the Magisk manager app.

Some advice would be much appreciated...

@ayandebnath Hello and thank you for your great work!

I have an issue with the config file.

I am using a poco x3 nfc, i am on ArrowOs 11 vanilla (no gapps inlcuded) with magisk 21.4.

I used the config file with 19/1 full version.

Turned all items of the full version to "0" and kept only "device health services" as "1".

In the end ALL except "device health services" got installed and replaced my stock apps.

Am i doing something wrong?
[Android Software Development] Kellwa:
Hi , and thank you for thr great work

i only had a small issue , i used config to skip Google Sound Picker installation, it was skipped but the stock Sound Picker was removed anyway

can you please check if you can fix this in next builds , maybe its also doing the same for the other apps , so the removal list is removed anyway no matter what you choose to install

Thank you

The last update (2021-01-29) for Android 9 and Android 10 has been deleted from SourceForge due to some serious issues.

An update will be released today with a proper fix.
[Android Software Development] ayandebnath:
Nope. Everything is fine.
[Android Software Development] ayandebnath:
Sorry for the late reply.

The sound picker removal is inside the default removal list. That is why the installer removed it.

This happens with some other app like: Calendar, Calculator, Clock, SoundPicker etc. bcz they are not the necessary apps for a ROM/device. But in case of Dialer, Contacts, Messags the installer skips the removal if the user set the value to 0.

Anyways, I may separate the removal list in future.
