For sure and I'm sure you understand how to reflash your device in case of brick right? Can you get the stock firmware? I assume so because it's a LG
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] noidodroid:
So you're saying you found something unique about each and every LG bootloader that is a constant with the RSA security? Or are you just trying out something and trying to see which will actually stick and work with it? I have maybe a device or two I could afford to Brick in the name of Tech research.

This would be a pretty big find if it is for sure :fingers-crossed:

If I were you I would let these people know there is a great very great possibility they will be breaking their device a hard brick and possibly even worse than edl 9008 Qualcomm mode. You need to have the exact programmer for the device for most of these LG's in order to reload with Qfil in 9 0 0

8 mode or other software / hardware.

Dear all experienced folks,

Can uou please tell me the point which i should avoid to Bricking My MI 8?
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] marik1:
Just follow the guides step by step, but verify before comments ;)
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] tsongming:
Dont flash experimental roms.

Dont flash roms made by rom automation program. Such as Mokee.

Don't flash roms from people who don't own the same device, and therefore cannot test it themselves.

Don't get impatient and restart the phone if a rom is taking longer than expected to install.

Don't bother installing GSI roms, they don't work well anyway.

Dont flash roms from other devices.

Don't feel obliged to flash every single update that is released. Especially when your device is already highly stable, wait to hear feedback from others.

prior to flashing AOSP roms.

Make a FULL TWRP backup of your stock installation. Keep this backup on your desktop and worst case you have a fast path to restoring your phone.

Do your homework and take notes, if you mess and brick your device, in the end , it's your fault.

Finally just because is bricked doesn't necessarily mean that the phone is unrecoverable. I have

hard bricked

my Mi8 about 3 times this year and fixed it everytime.

If you do, brick your phone
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] F3AR:
* So basically i can flash Global Stock [V11.0.6.0.PEAMIXM] via TWRP without bricking my phone?

* I have heard it bricks our phone if we downgrade [Flash anything below V11.0.6.0], right?

Frankly speaking i dont see any need of downgrading stock to a previous version...!

* And may i ask what was the way?
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] JonathanFreeze:
Hmmmmm. Mi 8 have no arb set (source xiaomi.eu) always do clean install(format data) while switching rom. It works for me and doesn't break my device.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] F3AR:
Formatting Data means Cleaning of Internal Storage... Which is {Quite} problematic

Aren't there any solutions. Like, In my Redmi Note 4 I formatted my Data partition with F2FS file system. That helped me not to wipe my internal storage while switching back and forth with Android 8 and 9.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] pabloeldiablo:
Don't know why, but TWRP backup/recovery stopped working on my device some time ago, like 4 months perhaps. I manage to make a backup (default options and partitions) and get a bootloop when try to recover. Used 3 diffferent twrp intotal none of them worked properly. So I ended up recovering using migrate. Not sure why twrp so temperamental though.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] F3AR:
So do i need to Clean my Internal Storage (Data) before using Xiaomi.eu?

Currently using HavocOS 3.0 [Android 10], Willing to Flash Xiaomi.eu Miui 11 [Android 10]

Currently using recovery: TWRP-3.3.1-1031-XIAOMI8-Q+Version-CN-wzsx150
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] tsongming:
If you are not encrypted your data may persist, just be sure to back your files up just in case.

---------- Post added at 04:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:03 PM ----------

Before creating backups, I find that it works best by not using encryption and removing passwords prior to the full backup.Otherwise, you would need to flash the boot image that you were using previously.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] F3AR:
I don't have Encryption and I find it best using OrangeFox, the Chinese recovery gives me error 7 while orangefox can flash seamlessly

I have successfully flashed Xiaomi.eu and got back into LineageOS again.

*Each time i downgrade, i format my Data partition to avoid any problem.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] tsongming:
Absolutely use what works for you, if you have no issues then I certainly don't blame you for sticking with it.

Personally I prefer the L.R Team version. ( For the long run, months of use, it is absolutely fail safe,)

Edit: For the record, Orange failed on me twice, and became encrypted and unavailable, I could not access recovery or fastboot. But finally resolved using edl.

L.R. Team may require a full clean start and it definitely has some limitations.

Specifically for users whose primary language is not Chinese or English. Also Orange Fox, is definitely much nicer looking and I love its customization options.

But in the long run, and I am sure that the people who have used both extensively would agree the LR Team while not pretty, is extremely stable, and that is what really matter when choosing a recovery.

Plus it is not a blind build, LR Team only build for devices they have on hand.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] alone_in_dark:
Have you flashed your Mi 8 in EDL mode? Any special work is needed to flash in edl?
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] tsongming:
I have written about this on various threads...extensively.

I don't have time write now to explain all the steps, also i you ever find yourself in this situation I can attempt fixing it , for a fee. Basically avoid using EDL at all cost, unless you are involuntarily stuck in EDL and have no choice.

My phone was hard bricked and it took a full day to fix. ( mostly because it was the first hard brick with my mi8) The issue with people needing special account privileges is due to those people not having proper credentials. They did not unlock the bootloader themselves,and they don't have a MiCloud account linked to their devices serial number.

However, if the phone is bound to a known account , that is you have the correct credentials then the solution is not terribly difficult. Even if the bootloader is locked: if the phone is bound to your account there is usually no issue with recovering the phone. When the phone is hard bricked, port 9008 is still accessible and the phone can usually be repaired using QPST, MiFlash, or Flashall.bat methods.

If you do not have the credentials then that is a whole different matter:

In that case, you must have the phone restored by an authorized service center. As far as I know, those types of 3rd party repair centers, with EDL privileges are no longer available in western countries.

hi

got sprint v50 from ebay, having two issues on Cricket/ATT:

1. After restart activation sprint application starts and after 30 secs of doing something it says "Activation Incomplete"

2. It displays LTE mode instead of 4g/lte that was displayed on my LG V35 with same sim card.

Speed test gives results 20% slower, calling is ok.

Any ideas how to fix this?
[LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers] antintin:
There is a thread somewhere titled Sprint activation on boot or something like that, and it lists all the packages that need to be uninstalled. Follow that guide and use adb

Thanks for working on this!

From what I can tell so far....

****What Works****

Internet - Stock Browser and Chrome,but not Firefox, see below

Phone calls

Text - Send and Receive pictures and text

Audio - 3.5mm headphone jack and back speaker, see below for Bluetooth

Video - Plays in VLC, stock browser and Chrome play youtube but some other sites don't play maybe because of slow 3g.

****What Doesn't Work****

Wifi - When enabled the button goes right back off

GPS - Tried Google Maps and Waze

Camera - Tried Open Camera and Footej Camera

Firefox - It opens but does not display the websites

Youtube App - Has spinning circle in player when video is picked

****What Works Partially/General complaints****

Bluetooth Speaker - It pairs but has choppy audio

Car Bluetooth - It pairs but there is no audio even though car

shows the call is up

Notification LED - It blinks but is always white instead of

green for texts and blue for missed calls

Downloads show when you pull down the notification

window but the arrow that should be in the Status Bar is

not there

Seems to drain battery too quickly

That moves all the skins.

Also, on your SDConfig, did you notice that the error message has no space between the words flash and bundle, where your text does. Either the text is misnamed, or your cab is misnamed, and might be causing the problem.
