Follow this steps:

-Go to Developer Options

-Disable WiFi and enable your mobile data connection

-Find the "Mi Unlock Status" and add your Mi Account details and login

-Now access Fastboot mode

-Run "Mi Flash Unlock Tool" and login

-The tool now indicates xx hours to wait for unlock the bootloader
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] Akabiss:
after adding account I am told this Don't disconnect from the network, sign out of your MI account,perform a factory reset, or erase system data

if you've already done any of the above,add your Mi Account again; otherwise, you won't be able to unlock your device

and it continues like this even after I do what is required and I am stuck right here

I have a SM-A7050, successful install TWRP, but when I try to flash LOS 16.zip file(I am taking the LOS16 build before LOS 17 development start.) It say I must require a bootloader version 3 or above. :confused: And I try software update (now running A7050ZHU5ATA2).

I don't know what can update bootloader.

You must downgrade bootloader (now you have v5).

It's not possible.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] purpleish:
well, rip.

So, should I wait until it get support?

This rom is not supported. You can flash LOS 17.1 or stock.

[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] BlueOner:
So... teardown videos on YouTube fooled me and I thought that this phone is water-resistant. I washed it under tap water (multiple times, actually). After the last time, the screen stopped working, but the phone appears to be OK — even the touch clearly works. I've already disassembled the phone and cleaned the connectors with 95% alcohol, but the screen still doesn't work. Is buying a replacement screen and hoping for a cheap repair the smartest thing to do? After all, the motherboard can also be borked.

EDIT: the screen is completely black
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Robbo.5000:
I've replaced the screen after dropping the phone. Was only a small chip in the bottom corner, didn't look much at all, but the screen was completely dead. I was in a similar dilemma of wanting to be sure it was only the screen before spending about $100 on a screen. I booted into fastboot, then connected to a PC, then done the fastboot devices command, which returned a valid ID, so I knew the phone wasn't completely dead. Also connecting to the PC and booting the phone, the PC recognised the phone was connected, though without being able to unlock the phone I couldn't check anything else. That was enough for me to go ahead and order the screen. Now everything works fine.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] BlueOner:
Thanks for sharing your experience! In my case, the phone clearly isn't dead, but I wonder whether some circuitry on the motherboard that's responsible for making the display work might be fried. Well... if that's the case, I can always sell the replacement screen after testing, but I'm not sure that someone will buy it for a good price.

Also... where did you get your screen from? On AliExpress, they are as cheap as $50, but most of the cheap ones are clearly some fake crap — TFT/IPS LCD, smaller than the original, fingerprint scanner not working... I guess I need to buy something more expensive. Have you noticed any difference between the original screen and your replacement?
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Robbo.5000:
It was 4 months ago I got mine from AliExpress, at that time there wasn't any of these cheaper ones for sale. Looking at these cheaper ones they are TFT, though it's not always obvious in the description.

One seller is selling both TFT and OLED and are clearly labelled in the options. So from this assume that all cheaper ones are TFT.

It is a bit of a minefield. I doubt that any of the sellers have the actual original genuine screens. It took me a couple of days to go through all the listings and determine which one would most likely be good quality.

I eventually went for this one, which was slightly more expensive than most. Now though it appears to have gone up about $15 from when I bought it.

https://a.aliexpress.com/_d7OqLlE

At that time it had the best reviews, which appeared genuine. There were others with a higher review count, which appeared to be just as well reviewed, but reading the reviews you realise they are fake. Many reviews, supposedly from the USA, written in very poor pigeon English.

Also saw some stores with high review count, but then realised that most reviews are for completely different products (a common trick by some Ali sellers, completely change an existing listing so a new product looks like it's got high reviews)

The screen is good quality. It took about 3 weeks to arrive, but it was about 2 weeks after I damaged it before I ordered. So it was around 5 weeks after I last used the phone before installing it. After that time it's hard to judge if it is as good as the original. To look at and use the phone you wouldn't think it was a non original replacement, to me it seems to be as good as the original, without doing a side by side comparison. As far as an oleophobic coating, I couldn't say, it's had a screen protector since installing.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] lambstone:
Umm. What? Even with IP rated phones you don't wash it with water. IP rating generally means that its good for accidental drops into water or for use in light rain. Why on earth would you wash it? Yes, I know jerryrig says there's some water ingress protection but it doesn't mean you should wash it with water. It just means you're good for use in light rain at best.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] BlueOner:
Yes, I know. Very stupid. At least y'all can learn from it and avoid making the same mistake.

That's reassuring!

Well, I guess that even if it's a bit worse, replacing the screen is better (in my case) than dealing with an older/cheaper phone or throwing a nice sum of money on a phone in similar price range. I will report my experience after replacing the screen, maybe it will help someone. I'm definitely not going to find another guy with 9T (Pro) because of the coronavirus, but comparison with another high-quality AMOLED phone is another way to check the quality.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] BlueOner:
So... I wanted to order the screen, but when I checked whether the phone still works... it appeared dead. It charges, is visible in USB devices (but no fastboot etc.), the notification LED blinks, but that's all. It worked perfectly some time after the water damage occured, so I guess that the damage progressed. Yes, I didn't clean the phone thoroughly after disassembling it - I thought that the water probably evaporated anyway after using a heat gun, so, as I mentioned earlier, I cleaned only (easily accessible) connectors. Maybe it is something stupid (power button?), but it seems too good to be true. If I don't post another update, just assume that my phone died.

My k20 pro Disable screen problem

Hi xda developers

After wetting the phone with a hand sanitizer and using the same wetness of the screen, I played the online game and put it in automatic game mode and rested for a while...

After waking up, I noticed that the phone was turned off, which was turned on by holding down the power button, but the screen is off...

Currently, only vibrators and notification lights work for the phone, and the phone is organized by a computer.

Also, the phone is charged and its sound can be heard while connecting it to the charger, and its sound can be heard in the same way to lock the screen.

Does anyone have an idea?
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] IchsanWin32:
my phone just take s swim in the river yesterday, now its has no display but still on and even the touchscreen is working (i know is working cuz its register sound when i try to touch it everywhere). it have been dead first but then turn back on with everything work normal. but after about half hour, the screen suddnly dead.

after tear it my self i found where the water coming in, its from the 3.5mm jack. other holes have rubber protection but the jack has nothing. they even put water dammage indicator below the 3.5mm module....:mad:

i have try few method like clean the board with isoprofil alcohol but no avail. now im waiting my screeen replacement and will try to fixit my self.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] saityro:
Hello! Had exactly the same issue. Did it work to replace the screen?

My phone got into the sea (well the sea went into it), nothing happened for a while, and then it suddenly went black. Is working (like i can still use it as alarm lol) but the screen is not. Same as BlueOner, i'm afraid is not the screen itself but something in the mother board, so I would love to know if any of you were able to use it after replacing the screen or i will end up with the same issue.

Thanks!
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] blackhawk:
It's toast. Don't even bother. The sea salt is hygroscopic, conductive (with moisture), corrosive and -everywhere- now.

It not a question of if it will fail only when.

Tap water is similar but not near as aggressive. The smallest amount of salt (sweat) can change that if it gets inside too. Even so if the device >didn't have it's battery pulled immediately<, then completely turn apart and cleaned with anhydrous isopropyl alcohol it won't fare much better in the long term most likely.

Any water internally can cause massive damage quickly. Or the signs of damage can take months to fully manifest themselves especially if the battery wasn't quickly pulled.

Salt water is fatal because it's residue doesn't easily rinse off as well as what was stated above.

This is why manufacturer warranties refuse to deal with water damage.

It's the gift that keeps giving...

Occasionally you can get lucky if you act fast🤣

My Buds case fell into my coffee cup and immediately crash dived to the bottom like the sub in Das Boot. Cream and sugar too.

I pulled it apart and rinsed it will RO water then with anhydrous isopropyl alcohol in less then 3 minutes. Got as much as the isopropyl out as possible without compressed air and allowed it to dry in a warm sunny spot. Couldn't disconnect the Li battery as it was soldered or spot welded in. After about 2 days of drying it worked and other a year and a half later still is working.

I am still surprised...🤣

Hi. I got water damage. The screen can be turn on but its not responding at all. I can press the power button, the screen lights up, as normal. I just couldn't unlocked it. It wont accept any touch. Also i tried calling from another phone, sound okay, also led notification working.

I havent try the charging port yet.

Anybody have similar experience? Can someone explain my problem? Should i order new screen replacement? Im just afraid its not screen problem.

There is no icon under settings...

Any idea? HELP please...
[Shift General] thaihugo:
No icon means you didn't copy paste properly> Check your key combinations. What langage is your shift?

Create a new contact, edit it's picture, goes to windows folder, move the selection to the start menu folder (or your equivalent in your language), press ctrl+c, go to the settings folder, get inside it, press ctrl+v. You have a message saying it cannot copy contact. Acknowledge. Follow normal instructions

Hi, the shift`s language is german. I used strg-c and strg-v several times, there was a message "file alread exist", but it is not vissible and no icon inside settings menu. Hm...
[Shift General] thaihugo:
You are probably not at the right place when you do this.

The crtl+c must be done in the windows folder, with the start menu selected (warning: start menu is in german, and is not "startup")

You must be in windows\settings when you click ctrl+v

Seems to have some awesome specs. I've personally been waiting for one of these devices to get wireless charging before I jump in so I'm crossing my fingers. Otherwise it seems to have the same basic feel and design which is great.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] galaxys:
I'll be taking it for a spin...once price, purchase, trade in, etc. are official.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Dabarr:
I will most likely get one, although I am a bit disappointed. I know most people are looking forward for wireless charging. I don't care too much about that. I was excited for at least 50w fast charging, but apperently it's not going to happen. Still going to get one most likely.

[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] spotmark:
I've been on the Pixel wagon, for the most part, since they came out. I skipped the 4 XL because it didn't offer enough of an upgrade over the 3 XL and I prefer the full screen design. For me to have a phone for a year and a half is like a lifetime. I thought I would make it to the 5 XL, but with word that it may be a mid-grade phone, it kind of tempered my desire. Along comes the 8 Pro with high end specs and a full screen, and suddenly I'm yearning for a new phone again. I'm pretty sure I'll be signing up for one as soon as they become available.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] reap3RT:
Same

:good:

I'll definetily buy the Ultramarine Blue, it looks very appealing, altough I am not a huge fan of colored phones.

I will retire my broken screened Pixel 2 XL now, it served me through a lot of adventures.

I'll be hoping that OnePlus nails the camera performance this time.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] null0seven:
What's new?

OK = 5g

OK = wireless charging, for saving the usb type C port wear. They talk about 50 Fast charge. That will be OK.

NO !!! = punch in display front camera !!! Horrible !!! Better leave it without front camera !!!

i was hoping for edge to edge screen, but NOT curved. 120hz display is good but it is not mandatory for me.

I hope the camera can take night pictures... also Macro photos !

If i can get it used, i will buy. Like all my OnePlus phones from OP 3 to OP 7 pro.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] spotmark:
I don't mind the hole punch. After living with the 3 XL's notch, that hole is nothing.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Virgo_Guy:
Yes, because you came from 3 XL.

Hole punch in the upper middle is way less distracting and obstructive than having it on either side. Makes me wonder why OnePlus made it on the side, they could've understood it from Samsung's offerings!
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Dabarr:
Who says something about 50 w fast charge? This informations is months old. All the articles I have read recently point to 30 watts only. Or did I miss something?

I went 3xl to S20u and i'm not that happy with the camera quality on the s20u , coming from the p3xl, but every OP device i've owned has had a mediocre camera setup, if it's the exact same setup as the find x2 pro with the same sw processing then i'm gonna get it and sell the s20u HK version

That's why I still have the 3 XL. The 4 XL just didn't offer enough of an upgrade.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] t-mizzle:
I ordered the 8pro today. Initially it didn't work, was only able to complete the order with a partial free bundle. I had a Mate 20 Pro, absolutely loved that phone except for the locked bootloader. I lost it after being heavily medicated after a surgery. Bought a pixel 3a, not a bad phone but didn't read the fine print, it was/is locked to T Mobile so I bought the 8 Pro. I'll be damned before I buy another phone I can't root.

I want a top spec phone with at least good camera, unlockable bootloader, near stock Android skin and timely updates. Plenty of promising phones out there but once I start looking closer, they don't have what I want. So I bought the OnePlus. Don't care for motion smoothing, ip rating and wireless charging but I have to pay for what I don't need to get what I want.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] masri1987:

I was just getting ready to say, I hope you're right and they weren't just saying that to placate you, and you added the edit. Lol
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] xgerryx:
It's probably BS because every review I've seen mentioned the 29th as the date. Plus all the free stuff is gone. So basically, if you want to use the wireless charger at full speed with the color you actually want, you're paying $1,070 dollars and not getting it until early May.

Maybe I should flip the second. I'm kidding it's for the wifey. :cool:

EDIT: For those getting all tizzy, this was a LIMITED launch and they made it rather clear the real release date was April 29th. I made sure I was good to go well before 12pm (logged in, page set to order, credit card out, etc..). I went to order the two blue and then my wife goes hmm maybe I'll do green and immediately it says 14 days on that one so at 12:01 pm I said screw it honey you're getting the blue like you wanted earlier. Anyways, I'm sure things will be fine come launch date. I've purchased multiple OP phones before on launch day (3, 5T, 6, 6T) and never had an issue.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] xgerryx:
Was finally able to get in chat with OP customer service and voiced my concerns. The rep seems to me not responding to me at all after 7 or 8 minutes of waiting now. I've heard other stories about people getting disconnected today with them. If they add a bad customer service experience on top of a bad buying experience i am 100% done with them.

After 15 minutes of silence i was told that:

"As we do not have official information or date of the restocking , I would not be able to share a specific or an approximate date .

However,

I will take this as a feedback and escalate to concern team as a prior wish of our customers . "

And

"Please give us 24 hours time to rectify this issue. Your patience in this is highly appreciated "

I asked what might happen in 24 hours and...he disappeared and never came back.

ONEPLUS everybody!
