[LineageOS Questions & Answers] XploD.GER:
Hi.

I've got a strange problem trying to keep my Oneplus 3T up-to-date:

Everytime I flash a lineage OS nightly build (no matter if using the auto updater or the recovery) my smartphone tries to boot normally (displaying the lineage animation), but after a minute, the recovery is started.

To fix this, I have to remove or reinstall the Google Apps (OpenGApps), which normally results in all apps to have rights removed (no location services, no storage access, no phone access, ...)

Can somebody tell me if this is a normal behaviour? Or do I do something wrong? Is there a way to avoid this?

Best regards,

_X_
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] kurtn:
This is not normal. Maybe you should try to get a new version from open GApps.
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] XploD.GER:
OK, thanks for your help. So for the next update, I will install the newest version of GApps. I tried 2 versions (31.01 and 08.02), but both did show this behaviour... I hope this'll be fixed soon...

Ello.

I got my hands on one of these glorious 8125's and well, am trying to set it up so that it will connect to data over AT&T Medianet.

I already flashed it up to the current newest TNT WM6 rom, but cant seem to find a decent guide or set of directions to setting this thing up...

Any help? Please XD
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] BigBadger:
Depending on the ROM you flashed, you might have the Network Wizard. Otherwise, there is a cab called "Cingular WAP MediaNet MMS Settingsv2" that should help you. See attachment.

Good after noon/hi

I have samsung galaxy a5 sm-a5000 model but software on it running sm-a500f.

But when i install a500f rom in odin check secure fail: aboot show how slove this issue?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
It isn't doing that because of the model numbers being different.

You are probably getting that error because the A500F firmware that you are trying to flash has a lower binary version than the firmware that is currently installed on your device.

To be more specific, you can't downgrade the bootloader version on most Samsung devices, the firmware that you are trying to flash has an older bootloader than the bootloader that is currently installed on your device, flashing this bootloader would be attempting to downgrade the bootloader. The bootloader that you currently have is specifically and securely designed to prevent flashing/booting an older bootloader than the one that you already have, it is this security measure that is built into the bootloader that preventing you from flashing the firmware version that you are trying to use. There is no way to bypass this built in security block.

If you updated your device and now you want to go back to the version that you had before, sadly, you can't do that. Unfortunately, you are stuck with what you have unless you can root the device and flash TWRP or custom ROMs. But, my guess is that your device has a locked bootloader which means you can't use TWRP or custom ROMs on your device.

If your device is not working properly and you are trying to repair it, you need to find a firmware that has the same binary version as the firmware that is currently installed on your device or you need to find a firmware that has a higher binary version, you can not use a firmware that has a lower binary version.

You can identify the binary version of your firmware by looking at the firmware's build number. The 5th digit from the right is the binary version.

For example, on my S767VL my build number is:

S767VLUDU4BSG3

In my firmware build number, the number "4" is the binary version. This means that if I want to flash my device, I have to use a firmware that has binary 4 or higher but I can not use a firmware that is a 3 or lower. If I were to flash a binary 5 firmware, I would not be able to go back to the binary 4 firmware.

That was a long explanation but I hope it helps you understand better.
[General Questions and Answers] Mian Faiz Rasool:
how possible this?

but when i purchase my phone a5 running 4.4.4 A5OOFXXU1AOD1
[General Questions and Answers] Mian Faiz Rasool:
plz send custom roms

for Samsung galaxy a5 a-5000
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Ok, it had A500FXXU1AOD1 when you bought it, that firmware build number is a binary 1 firmware. It doesn't matter what version was installed when you bought it, what matters is what is the current version that is installed on the device now.

Has the device been updated since you bought it? Does it still have the A500FXXU1AOD1 build number installed on the device or does it have a different build number installed?

As I said, if you have updated the device with a firmware that has a higher binary than what the device originally came installed with, you can't go back to what you had before you updated the device.
[General Questions and Answers] Mian Faiz Rasool:
in about device name and in download mode name are different.

In about device mobile A500F but in odin mode[download mode] product name A5000.

i when i install A500F with same baseband A500FXXU1AOD1 then

SECURE CHECK FAIL:ABOOT occurs

but i flash A5000 firmware then successfully install.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Ah, now I understand. When you bought the device, did you but it new or was the device previously owned by someone else before you bought it?

Is the device from your region/country? Or is the device from a different region/country?

If you bought the device when it was new, I don't know why you are having an issue with flashing the device.

If you bought it used or if it is from a different region/country then it seems that someone has flashed it with a firmware from a different model number in order to make the device compatible with a different region/country/network than it was built for. This was probably achieved by flashing with a modified firmware from another device that has been modified to be compatible with your device.

If it is showing A5000 in Odin mode, you need to try flashing it with A5000 firmware. Or you need to make modifications to the A500F firmware so that it can be successfully flashed over the A5000 firmware.

No, I don't know what modifications you need to make, you'll have to research that for yourself. It may be as simple as flashing only parts of the A500F firmware instead of the whole firmware.

---------- Post added at 10:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:50 AM ----------

What is the build number of the A5000 firmware that is currently installed on your device?
[General Questions and Answers] Mian Faiz Rasool:
buid number

A500FXXU1AOD1

yes,i bouth used phone.

now my country/region Pakistan.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
That is the build number of the A500F firmware, I understand that is what it shows in your about phone settings, but that is not what I am asking for.

You said that in Odin mode(download mode) it says A5000, it is saying A5000 because a A5000 firmware or at least some part of A5000 firmware has been flashed on your device. I am asking you if you can find out the build number of the A5000 firmware or firmware parts that were flashed on the device. Does it show a build number for A5000 when you are in Odin mode(download mode)? There is A5000 firmware or some part of A5000 firmware on your device, we need to find out what what that build number is and we need to find out if/which part or parts of A5000 firmware were flashed on your devive. I'm thinking that you have a mix of both the A500F and the A5000 firmware on your device. The device may have been flashed with a modem.bin and/or CSC file for A5000 to make the radio compatible with the network carrier that provided cellular service to the previous owner of the device.
[General Questions and Answers] Mian Faiz Rasool:
Yes,when i flash a5000 firmware that show build number of a5000 A5000ZH1BOG1 in mobile setting in about device.

My question is how install A500F firmware on A5000 phone?that is ho w possible?
[General Questions and Answers] Mian Faiz Rasool:
How possible that A5000 run software of A500F that is my question.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Probably because they both have the same hardware or at least close enough that the software works without issue.

[Xiaomi Poco X2 Questions & Answers] demib22:
Hello,

I recently bought a Chinese Redmi K30. I tried installing google apps using the installer from getapps, but the apps are out of date. So I opted to install them individually. Everything works fine except for the payment side.

My guess is something is either blocking or not connecting with the billing servers. In one game, I get an error code 200260 when I try to buy something. I get the same code when I use a Samsung S7 with no VPN.

I have clear cache and data from Google Play, Play Services, and even uninstalled everything and started again. Am I missing something?

Thank you in advanced.

Had the same issue with MIUI CN I think it's bc Google Play Protect is not certified on the device and therefore there's some app that won't be available & payment method screwed up bc of it. So I unlocked my BL, flashed MIUI.eu and my device is now Play Protect certified ?

For OTA, you must have a proper SIM card and WiFi connection - check in Settings/Software update do you receive OTA

Also, install latest HiSuite to PC, connect to the phone and find in HiSuite (at the bottom) an option to update.

Not sure, but also better have a valid SIM card in the phone

There are other options but first try these simplest and less intrusive ones

Ofc, supposing that phone is not rooted or TWRP installed (ie - must be the stock firmware)
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] aselaj:
Thanks...

many Thanks for the advices.

Yes. phone is not rooted. I have tried both above ways & not getting update. So i thought to use other way ( dload) & try.

Please let me know the correct update package so i can download & push via SD card.

Is it risky to use that method...??

Also please tell me if upgrade would caused to any other issue such as battery draining issue.. If so how can i downgrade the version.?

many thanks...
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] zgfg:
You can DLOAD to L19 c185 b385 (initial Nougat), you must take FullOTA-MF-PV (PV is important) - as on the screenshot, from:

https://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=EVA-L19c185

You can also install FirmwareFinder app (from Playstore or XDA) to download from the app

Download the two files, update.zip and update_data_full_hw_meafnaf.zip, do not unzip, put into DLOAD folder on your SD card.

Phone better to be charged, switch off, disconnect USB, press and keep pressing both Vol+ and Vol-, then boot - it should start DLOAD

Boot and login to system, and check if you can receive further OTA updates

If you don't receive further OTA update, you can force DLOAD up to the latestEVA-L19c185b403

Download:

Unzip/untar until you extract a dload folder (do not extract further) and ReleaseDoc folder.

[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] zgfg:
You have to download and use for DLOAD both update.zip and update_data_full_hw_meafnaf.zip (both files must be put as is into the DLOAD folder)

Some packages may even have three update***.zip files for DLOAD

Generally, judge by names, if package name shows both L09 and L19 and if you see in the filelist two files with the same names except that one contains L09 in its name, the other L19 in its name, then (for your L19) forget that with L19 in the name.

This package, as the name clearly says is for EVA-L19c185 not for some MHA, L19, c432 or else

In the OP post it was asked for EVA-L19c185

You came later, if you have different phone you have to go to the top of the page and instead of EVA-L19c185 enter EVA-L09c432 or exactly what is your model and cust (based on Settings/About)

Then press Find my model.

Only FullOTA-MF-PV packages are for DLOAD
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] plarfman:
So i downloaded firmware which says its FullOTA-MF-PV but when i flash i get incompability with current version error
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] zgfg:
By "flashing" do you mean DLOAD or what?

With DLOAD you cannot do rebranding by going from eg c185 to c432 or so - for that Bootloader must be unlocked and other methods used

What is exactly the full EMUI name and number, best please attach screenshot from Settings/About.

And what do you want to install

If you just want to update to the latest for your model and cust, did first try OTA (both SiM and WiFi must be on), and did you try updating by HiSuite (in the app on the PC find in the bottom Install or Update, not sure how is it named)
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] plarfman:
I originaly had C555 but now i have C900 and i flash with dload and i try dloading C555 firmware
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] zgfg:
With c900 there are no OTAs (maybe) and no FullOTA-MF-PV firmwares for DLOAD

Going to different cXXX means rebranding and requires the unlocked Bootloader

I don't see firmwares for EVA-L09c555, only for c55.

But from the other post you tried to download L09GBRc555 - frankly, I don't know what's that (3UK H3G?)

Probably rebranding to c432 would be the best choice (with unlocked Bootloader but not with simple DLOAD - it would brick the phone)
