[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] absoluthamm:
So I stupidly tried to upgrade to the Pixel 4 Launcher before the official Dec update came and even after trying to uninstall/reinstall the .apk and downgrade etc, I still can't get the launcher to be remotely usable without the error popups if I have gestures on. So I am resorting to factory resetting and just starting from scratch.

I feel extremely dumb asking this as I've been rooting/customizing my phones since the G1, but about 6 months ago I had to send in a phone for RMA and when I factory reset it, wiped the OS and the bootloader was locked, so I am making sure I don't do that this time as I'm now out of warranty.

What is the process of factory resetting when I am rooted with Magisk and have the bootloader unlocked? I don't have a custom rom, just stock Android and I do not have TWRP installed. I feel like it's as simple as just going into Settings and hitting Factory Reset in Reset Options, but I can't remember if I did that or something else when I bricked the RMA phone and want to make sure.

Again, sorry for the completely stupid question, just trying to cover the bases. Thanks in advance!

It's like you said, go to settings and factory reset. Or, go to stock recovery and do it from there :good::cool:
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] Romano2K:
Hi!

I'd like to get rid of the HTC original firmware on my U12+.

I just tried to flash GSIs of LineageOS 17 by AndyYan then AOSP 10.0 by phhusson, without luck.

I have a factory unlocked HTC U12+ (fastboot mode showing Secure Boot : Development, Secure State : S-Off, Device State : Unlocked(U)) so I went straight to the "flash GSI without TWRP" part of the official XDA tutorial: I factory reset the phone, rebooted in bootloader, then erased system and successfully flashed lineage-17.0-20191117-UNOFFICIAL-treble_arm64_avN.img.

But after reboot, I got a bootloop.

I've wanted to try the TWRP method, but upon launch it asked my password for decryption. While I'm sure of the code I've used and typed, decryption doesn't work, so TWRP didn't help.

Then I've flashed the AOSP GSI via fastboot, but then I got a "This device is corrupt. It can't be trusted and will not boot" error message.

So as suggested on another thread I've used the SD card method to flash a RUU, specifically 2Q55IMG_IMAGINE_DUGL_O80_SENSE10GP_HTC_Europe_1.30.401.2_Radio_sdm845-000201b-1807311356_release_528103_signed_2_4.zip. It flashed successfully, but then it booted to the static white HTC logo on black background and stayed there for 20 min.

I can still boot to fastboot mode/download mode, but I don't know what to do.

I can't figure what I'm doing wrong, can you help me, please? :)
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] Romano2K:
After another attempt I've managed to go back full stock using the microSD card method.

Then I've been able to boot TWRP, which first showed a "Mount" "Decrypt data" screen, asking for a password. The 6 digits code I've used previously doesn't work. So TWRP "failed to decrypt data", also was "unable to mount storage" and "failed to unmount /system_root (device or resource busy)". As suggested, I formatted/wiped data to remove encryption.

Then I performed a factory reset, adb pushed system-quack-arm64-ab-vanilla.img to /data, then flashed it successfully to the system partition, as requested in the afore mentioned official tutorial. On reboot I get another bootloop. Bootscreens shows the HTC and Powered by Android wordmarks and also "** ORANGE **" on the top left corner of the screen.

What am I missing?! :-/
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] Deonix:
After first boot of flashed RUU at the HTC logo reboot the device. Got there myself, rebooted(using power button) and the OS booted up perfectly.

TWRP doesn't decrypt latest Pie with July Patch. So you will not decrypt it. (Wiping does not decrypt).

I used temporary TWRP, flashed permanent (with touchscreen patch), installed Magisk, Rooted, installed LeeDroid from Magisk for example.

Make sure you have a correct RUU for your CID version.

I am not sure how a project treble ROM will work on this device. You still need signed HTC drivers. I don't think we are ready now for 10 on this device for daily use. HTC did quite awful with the Pie update and many bugs are still not fixed after 6 months.
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] Romano2K:
GSI tutorials advise against rooting before flashing. They advise to keep the phone full stock. What do you think about this?

I was unable to determine CID and MID yesterday from fastboot mode or TWRP, so I've downloaded the latest RUU for dual SIM and EMEA model, as my U12+ is dual SIM and I live in Europe.

Now that the phone is back to full stock, I just installed a terminal app right on the phone and executed the following:

getprop ro.cid : 11111111

getprop ro.boot.mid : empty

I understand that the phone is "SuperCID", but I don't really understand what that implies.

Regarding Treble, Treble Info by Hackintosh Five reports (translated from French by me): "Your device supports the old Project Treble version, using VNDK version 26.0."

But the U12+ is listed as supported on phhusson's wiki. A few issues are listed, but I'm fine with them.

I've read a tutorial that asks to "extract the GSI and vendor+boot zips", but then doesn't what to do with the vendor+boot zips. Do you know?

Lastly, do you know what the **GREEN** or **ORANGE** overlay means on the boot screen?

Thank you for your help!
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] Deonix:
SuperCID implies you can install any RUU (not specific CID). So you can "transform" your US version into european or asian... for a specific reason. No need to do that. Usually there was a specific base that was needed to install a custom ROM or Custom Recovery or people just wanted a different version because they lived in a different part of the world from where the phone was purposed.

I am guessing the **GREEN*** overlay has smth to do with the RUU (if it's embedded in the Boot animation zip (basically pictures+ sound)) or has smth to do with the nature of your tempering (S-OFF/SuperCid etc.)

with this device and serves as a warning for users/devs/internal testing.

You should find your answers on a different section. More active. I see no activity here. And it's HTC's fault for dying" on us. I myself bought the U12 just to own (probably) the last flaghsip device they make. Here's to the comeback.... but I am not sure it will be real. HTC was one of the fastest to update, for example.. until 2019. We are still with bugs and on the July patch. Right not, in reality I am just hoping for one last Pie update to fix bugs and that's it. Will give this device a 1 year run and buy something better.

So go to the Android general section where you can ask how can you compile your ROM on this device. They should help. I can not offer sufficient knowhow on this topic.
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] Romano2K:
Thank you for these clarifications

The **GREEN** or **ORANGE** overlay is shown for a few seconds on the vendor logo, before boot animation. It wasn't showing before I started messing with firmwares, but nevermind :)

Yes unfortunately HTC is kind of dead on the smartphone front. They deserved it at the end, U12 Plus' firmware is badly translated and full of bloatware. I've been a long fan, I've had four Orange branded Windows Mobile phones and PDA phones from 2002 (17 years ago!) to 2007, then a few Android smartphones (HTC Desire <3), so I think it's sad.

Anyway I've been able to flash AOSP 10.0 GSI by phhusson with his help.

So I've just shared a quick tutorial:

https://xdaforums.com/u12-plus/how-to/guide-how-to-install-generic-image-gsi-t4019151

Thank you for your help Deonix!
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] Deonix:
Interesting. Will look into your tutorial. So thank you. If the boot animation.zip was modified you will find in in root/system/[search for it] -you can lookup up each image that forms the animation to check. I myself modified the ZIP to not include the annoying audio, so i deleted it. )

So is the GSI good for daily use? I would mess around with it until i sell my HTC U11. Still using the U11 as a daily driver for the past 2 weeks. And by selling it i mean practically giving a perfectly good phone away for scrap... because it's old.
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] Romano2K:
That's clever! The HTC boot sound was annoying when I had trouble booting the bootloader, because of the tactile buttons.

At this point I have a big problem with AOSP 10.0: brightness is blocked at 100%. There's a workaround involving adb, but for some reason adb isn't working with this firmware, even though I've activated developer options and USB debugging. I haven't had the time to tinker yet, I'll give it a try asap and I'll report back! :)

Thank you again for your help
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] mawoods75:
Did Bluetooth work for you on AOSP? Tried to install a few GSIs over the last couple of days but I cannot get Bluetooth working for calls or media. Apparently it's a known issue but none of the fixes I can find here on the forums seem to work for me. Just wondered what your experience was on another U12. I even tried your guide but still no Bluetooth for me.

Factory reset, re-pair with same phone and its trying to now push an update which constantly fails.

[Redmi Note 8 Questions & Answers] farhan.niloy5:
I have a Note 8 Global Version with MIUI 11. If my phone is locked and screen is off and I press the lock button or even scan my finger, it is taking approximately 4 to 5 seconds for the screen to be lit. A few information if it helps:

1. Let's say in lock screen the screen is supposed to be lit for 5 seconds. I press the lock button. Wait 3 seconds. Then the screen light turns on. But just after 2 seconds the screen turns off. It means the processor does read the button press immediately but somehow fails to turn the screen on immediately.

2. After the MIUI 11 update I was tinkering with the new options. And I found one old option actually - double tab lock button to start camera. I turned that on and checked how that works. That was the first time I noticed the delay of 3/4 seconds. So I thought it was related and disabled it. But still the issue persists.

[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] Mike845:
Hi! I'm aware that the rog phone 2 has actually two vibration motors. Since I have it I couldn't really tell if there actually was one or two motors, as the vibration allways seems to come from the bottom, so I made a test with Asphalt 9 (the game they use to advertise the vibration system and came preinstalled) and actually felt the two vibration motors working separately.

I know by the "Jerry rig everything" video that the top motor is smaller than the bottom one, and during my test I muted the sound and noticed that the top motor makes a not so pleasant sound, I even could say it is painful to hear and noticeably loud, it is almost like an electric noise. My question is, can this be considered normal? Can anyone relate to this with their own device? Thanks!

Hi,

I just bought a OnePlus 7T with Android 10 already installed. I noticed that the "pop-up notifications" setting in WhatsApp it's grey, blocked. I'm an absolute ignorant on things like Android programming and similar, but I thought that the specific setting has been blocked by the new Android 10, and not by OxygenOS, so I tried to ask for informations directly to Android customer service without response. I tried also contacting WhatsApp customer service, but the response was just a link to a page that literally says: "on Android 10 pop-up notifications doesn't work", without further explanation on the reasons for that. Last, I tried searching on XDA and other forums, but I didn't found anything. Does anyone know why on Android 10 this feature has been blocked and if there is a way to bypass it?

It's very annoying having to unlock your phone and search for that specific notification every time.

Hope you'll help me.
