[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] RealSykes:
Hello XDA Community,

As a preface, I'm an idiot. I figured I could dabble around with different ROM's and through all of my insightful wisdom appear to have hard-bricked my phone in the process. As seen via the attached photos I at one point was able to boot my phone into Fastboot > TWRP > Flash Rom > Off to the races.

Now the phone will not boot period. When plugged into an outlet the blue indicator atop the camera doesn't even blink a blue color. Moreover, when plugged into my PC it is not found via my PC "Devices & Drives" folder. However, when I open the MiFlash tool the phone reflects as "COM3" whereas before it would show what I assume to be the unique ID for the phone.

I came across another thread titled "[EDL Flash] How to fix your hard brick [Mi 9T Pro/K20 Pro]" but even here it mentions the phone booting and displaying some type of error message.

Anyhow, this is a long shot but figured I'd give it a go and see what comes of it.

Thanks for any insight and for simply taking the time to read my post.

Update 1 - I've tried to flash a ROM and get error message: "Object reference not set to an instance of an object". Here: [IMG="..."]https://gyazo.com/37dfbb83e09d800b8a7e80263889776b[/IMG]
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] sofir786:
That error message is some sort of program error:

https://stackify.com/nullreferenceexception-object-reference-not-set/

I'm no expert on c# programming so cannot say why that error occurred.

You could try to use adb commands, see if adb picks the device up, when you say it does not power on at all, does the phone go into bootloader mode? (, power and volume down)

MOD EDIT: QUOTE REMOVED

try it under windows 7 computer, preferably laptop with usb 2.0 port. It can recognize the device, if not, and standart unbrick method doesnt work even under w7, then you have to use test points on motherboard, edl account is needed for that, idk how to get it as i tried to get it several times but received only mails in chinese so i gave up, not paid too much to bother so much time on fixing one phone.

There is even modified version of flash tool that is believed to authorize any account logged in bypassin the authorize account error i can provide a link for you but not tested if its actually working.

MOD EDIT: QUOTE REMOVED

i actually did research about this while ago and it might help the guy unless he is willing to pay some russian scammer 60 bucks via teamspeak that is doing this stuff from either stolen or modified authorized account which i can provide link to @RealSykes pm me if u wanna try and give it a go, u can pay russian scammers few bucks in the end if all tries fails :D there is even command for adb if you have unlocked bootloader that will enter edl without test pin points, but u need to enter fastboot mode first which im assuming u cant from what i have understand.

Kind of important question, what did you do to screw up your phone? So others know what not to do.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] meezy5:
https://c.mi.com/thread-2173190-1-0.html follow steps on this site if you already didnt find this by yourself, maybe it can give you and permission to flash, as it appears for some people it actually gave it. tried it myself for you now, and it appears my account is somehow ready to flash (authorized) now, but, i applied some time ago for actually get it, so, it can be different for you.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] harlybake:
An Object is an instance of a Class , it is stored some where in memory. A reference is what is used to describe the pointer to the memory location where the Object resides. The message "object reference not set to an instance of an object" means that you are referring to an object the does not exist or was deleted or cleaned up. It's usually better to avoid a NullReferenceException than to handle it after it occurs. To prevent the error, objects that could be null should be tested for null before being used.

if (mClass != null)

{

// Go ahead and use mClass

mClass.property = ...

}

else

{

// Attempting to use mClass here will result in NullReferenceException

[OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GurkhaUK:
Hi All,

I just picked up one of these phones for 80 gbp.

Reason for buying is I wanted a well built phone with no FP reader that I could basically make it secure but also had some community love. I was also thinking of 1+1's but dont know whether there is much support for that handset and getting hod of them. there seems to be quite a few X's circulation on Ebay where I got mine from.

I would like opinions please on ROMs that could create a secure platform base for me to build on.

I have looked at Lineage OS having used that before on a Pixel 2 but I have also had a look at /e/ as it seems to give a decent base.

My thoughts where to bundle it up with secure apps 'out of the box' so to speak and create a backup I could reflash to multiple X devices ( if thats possible?)

I have client who works in security and wants these phones for their guards but not accessing google services et al while on shift.

Any help would be hugely appreciated.

Thanks

Gurkha
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] GeekMcLeod:
My brothers OP8 doesn't seem to have the option, although it was available on his pixel 4xl. Any ideas why?

It's brand new, up to date and not rooted.
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] pxer:
You will have to check the forums for the basic instructions on how to use the *#800# function and possible installation of the logkit apk, from there you may need to use the PDC program to change another setting. If you check under oneplus 7 pro enabling VOLTE you will see all the info.

I have a oneplus 7pro, and by doing the above changes, VOLTE worked with a Bell SIM. Koodo is another story, I still can't get it to work

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to find a dxf file to be able to be able to machine a frame for my project but cannot find one anywhere.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] BigE:
If you are looking for an app that can read a dxf file in your phone try schemataCAD , or DWG FastView.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] Chocco8:
I'm looking for the dxf for the actual Galaxy Note 10 Plus frame. My project is making a custom Note 10 Plus.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] hoss_n2:
You won't find what you need , but you can 3d scan it and convert the scanned output into a 3d model so you can either 3d print it or export it to a cnc machine
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] Belimawr:
yeah Samsung is unlikely to give out that info, so you would likely need to get a fram and scan it to create a plot for the CNC as it will likely be kept under wraps to avoid imitation devices.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] KOLIOSIS:
Sounds great, I hope you actually get this project going.

If you do, by all means, keep us posted on your progress.

What kind of customizations are you aiming for?

If you could build one with a removable battery/IR Blaster/LED notification/Dual-Sim + dedicated SD Card slot, we're all interested. (basically an updated Note 4)... ?

Regardless of how you customize your Note 10+, we're all pulling for ya. ✌️

LOL, you forgot 3.5mm headphone jack... For shame... :silly::laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] Chocco8:
For the moment its more of a aesthetic customisation... Changing the metal frame to a different material. But understanding how different materials affect signal strength etc is something I have to keep a close eye on.

I started with a simple update with the rear glass now clear instead of coloured. And this simple upgrade has started something now...lol??*♂️
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] Belimawr:
The glass is generally the factor in signal it's why they keep the glass external and why thing like the iPhone resourt to stuff like making the logo out of different materials and antenna lines in the metal case. so really changing the underlying frame shouldn't make much a difference if it is engineered near identical to the stock, the only difference may be an improvement if you move it to a non metallic material, but likely at the cost of strength. but really as long as you keep glass or other non shielded materials as the front and back you should be fine to do whatever to the internal frame as the metal running through will already be engineered to account for the signals.

it's likely that if you tried something like a full metal back you would then have problems with various signals likely including blocking NFC and wireless charging, but a near identical frame should follow the same rules as the stock metal one so would likely have the features in place to protect the signal no matter the material, as it will already be machined to account for the metal blocking signals.

but as said you would likely need to make your own plot of the frame using an existing frame and likely a fair bit of time to get it accurate. but it would be interesting to see if you could run a different material through the frame without adversely affecting heat distribution, strength and signals.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] albatrossxda:
I own a Diamond since yesterday and have noticed having problems with 3G carriers (specifically H3G Italy) searching on the net I've seen that many people from different countries have the same problem. I think that the problem should be the radio rom shipped with the diamond. Actually I tested 1.00.25.03/05/06 all with poor signal or loss of signal or roaming.

I adviced HTC of the problem (saying that 3G signal is very poor) indicating the os rom and the radio rom.

Everyone that has the same problem should notify HTC on this form http://www.htc.com/europe/CS_Mail.aspx

so, perhaps, can begin working on it.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Sergio PC:
SEARCH Junior!!!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] chand4u76:
Agree with this 3G signal dows not improve on all Radio ROMs
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] DarkWader:
I can confirm this.

I had a TytnII before I got the Diamond, and I tested them for a week against each-other.

The TytnII had 3G coverage about everywhere I live, but only 3-4 bars.

The Diamond mostly have 1 to nothing...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] albatrossxda:
Hi Sergio,

what do you mean? Should I search the signal or should I search somewhere else here on the forum? I didn't find nothing but I'll give another look.

Any hints?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] huwwatkins:
Hopefully the .16 rom will improove things a bit. I really hope that its a rom issue and not a hardware issue.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] albatrossxda:
Do you know when it will be released?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] huwwatkins:
There is a rom in the raphael forum with it but its the whole rom and not just the radio. I've emailed HTC - doubt ill get a responce. I'm suprised there isn't greater interest in this problem.

Incidently i think the .11 radio gave me slightly better 3g reception.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] albatrossxda:
Thanks, hope so either.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] huwwatkins:
I have sent htc an email, I got an automated reply saying that somone would look in to it soon. We shall see.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] LRC:
ohh, you all have send a mail,

i have also send a mail, since the end of June, i think 4 emails and nothing happens,

everytime when i visit htc-e-club, there is a song in my head >

i`m waiting,waiting, for you... *lol*

ThX
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] BushwalkerSP:
It looks to me that HTC has rushed the release of this phone before they properly tested it (most likely to coincide with the release of 3G iPhone). They are using us, their customers, to test it for them.

The 3G reception here in Australia is very bad (never above 2 bars) and it constantly switches over to GSM, which in some cases causing for a call to be dropped. Pathetic.:mad:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] broncos:
also me, in the same conditions in italy :mad:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] albatrossxda:
Hi broncos nice to see you I think tomorrow I will call HTC by phone
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] gekko_ch:
i wondering if there is a Serie of devices which have those problems ,

2 of my collegues have also a diamond , in the same room with the same Provider , i have NO or 1bar when they have full ??

Now i tried alot of ROM's and i came to the conclusion to send the Device to HTC, so i have to flash back to SSPL ...

1st HTC and no luck ...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] endgate:
The same problem in Spain with the carrier "Yoigo". I have already sent the appropriate message to HTC.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] broncos:
I have send email past week but I don't have answer.

I think it's a big big problem!!!. What HTC doing to solve it?

it does nothing???!!! :mad:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] baraata:
Hi guys

3G is not everywhere yet even here at my place it often goes down depending on where I am.

But when I have this problem and look at my friends Iphone he has the same problem. So I wonder if this is a diamond\Iphone or a provider problem?

Grtzzzz
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] broncos:
it's 3 years that i use only 3G phones and only with diamond i have this problem (i read also iphone has the same problem)

but it is sure that the problem is of the diamond (and iphone) because all the other phone dont' have problem (also 3Gphones pay 20/30euros have no problem!!!)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] huwwatkins:
I just hope that its a software problem rasther than a hardware fault.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] albatrossxda:
I flashed the .18 radio rom and have still the same problems.

[Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro  Accessories] mini21:
Good day.

Could you recommend some proven charging cable?

Looking for a usb-c cable longer than the one included in the kit.

What to look for with such a cable?

What parameters are important?

Are there any proven brands (Ugreen, Blitzwolf, Baseus)?

I am interested in something longer - from 2 meters.

Thank you in advance for your help.
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro  Accessories] B!GBOY:
iirc you need one that is a USB 3.0 (or higher) cable in order to get turbo charging.

something like this should work, but i have not tried it

I am using baseus cables and they are really good quality (turbocharging works fine) and 1/4 of price of this anker cable.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] xdanoobman:
After a T-Mobile update to Android 10 One UI 2.0 my phone behaved oddly. It frequently lost data and network connection, whilst playing PUBG froze and restarted itself. I thought maybe it was because I was being a but abusive to the phone but then I realized my phone literally has IMEI status as unknown and now I cant connect to T-Mobile services at all. I got a new SIM card thinking a two year old SIM might be faulty ans the problems persisted. That didnt work so I cleared cache. Then factory resetted. Then cleared cache again and reset again. But to no avail . So now I have made an XDA account because I dont know what to do with my phone. Is it possible to restore my phone's IMEI? If so how? :confused:

P.S I did not tinker with this phone in anyway whatsoever like rooting and such.

Thank you XDA community. :highfive:

[Nokia 6.1 Plus (X6) Questions & Answers] jmc92:
So it had been a while since I had tried getting into recovery twrp but I figured I could remember how so I did

fastboot flash boot twrp etc.img

This was a mistake according to the site here > https://twrp.me/nokia/nokia6_1.html

Which is exactly what I did :(

So now my phone is either stuck on the Nokia logo, or I can load twrp.

They provide some info on fixing it but I'm not sure I understand what they are saying. Can anyone help with this?

The phone was running Oreo (not sure which version unfortunately) and it was fully rooted and running magisk/xposed/su just fine before my mistake.

I don't have access to fastboot. Only Twrp and adb commands.

Edit, I can get to fastboot/download mode through the twrp terminal.

[SOLVED]

So I was able to use twrp to copy all of my internal files onto an sd card.

Then I set about getting this tool here > https://github.com/RaghuVarma331/Nokia-Tool the firmware specific to my phone, and modifying the bat file found here > https://github.com/RaghuVarma331/Nokia-Tool/blob/master/batscripts/Nokia-Tool-DRG-B2N-PL2-CTL.bat (because windows for some reason gave me a 16 bit application warning when I tried to use the tool exe)

My phone flashed a bunch of time and I was able to load up an almost entirely stock android 10, still capable of using magisk, edxposed, etc.

And now all there is to do is to get everything back onto it and set up which is at this point, the best case scenario.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] BillTheCat:
I may be late to the game on this issue, but I can't believe what I'm hearing from another source. Hope I put this in the right forum.

Is it true that when we send or receive a POP message on our PDA that there's no way we can synchronize that message back to Outlook on the desktop?

What I need to do is to have any message received or sent using Pocket Outlook with WiFi or 3G/GPRS while away from my desktop syncrhonized back to Outlook via ActiveSync. I've been told this can't be done.

In other words, what we have here is the electronic Roach Motel for email?

Someone please tell me it's not true. :eek:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] JimmyMcGee:
I don't think that's true. I haven't used Outlook/Pop Mail since my Dell Axim Days, but to worked then.

What's true is POP is a one shot deal. If you download the message from your email server using POP to your Mobile, you can't download it from your email server to your Desktop Outlook.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] BillTheCat:
Yes, I understand that with POP, you have the option of either keeping the messages on the server, or having them deleted after download.

Here's a scenario. This is what I'd like to happen. Please let me know if it's possible with a standard POP/SMTP server (NOT an Exchange server, and IMAP isn't an option for me at this time).

1) I synchronize my device with my pc and emails are updated to their respective folders on the PDA while physically connected to my desktop. I then disconnect and leave my office.

2) While on the road, I download an email to the device using one of my POP accounts via either 3G or WiFi. I respond to that message and send it back. Now, I have one new message in the In Box on the PDA, and a response in my Sent Items folder on the PDA.

3) When I return home, I want both those new messages - one in the In Box and on in the Sent Items folder to be synchronized back from the PDA to the desktop.

I've been told it's not possible. Can someone confirm, and if it's true, please explain to me (in layman's terms) how messages manage to go into the machine, but messages downloaded using the PDA just don't want to come out?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] GWelker62:
AFAIK, it is not possible in the way you want to do it. Out the box WM will only do this with Exchange Server email. You have to go with a third party service like Xpress Fail that pushes email off your desktop Outlook to your phone.

Maybe someone could suggest a service that actually works, because Xpress Fail sucked for me.

You have probably been told this, but I set up Outlook on the desktop to leave an email on the server for 10 days. This way the phone and desktop get the same email. But thats as good as it gets with a POP account.

One more thing, the "Outlook" account you see on the phone is used for Exchange Server email. You can select it to sync with your desktop, but all it does is load up the email from your desktop.
