[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] notaseel:
Hello

So I was trying to root my Samsung Galaxy S9+ a couple hours ago. But I got stuck on a bootloop in the middle of the process so I started panicing and trying every button in the TWRP menu. I accidentally wiped all files including the OS. So then after a little bit of research I tried installing a custom ROM that I found on a firmware website. The custom ROM was the exact same model as my phone, Android 10 G965F. I had no idea how to install this kind of stuff so I looked it up on youtube. I tried doing it with Odin but I didnt know which .md5 file to do first (because there were 5 .md5 files in the .zip file) and whichever one I tried loaded forever. My phone is currently stuck on the Downloading screen.

Any help would be very appreciated A LOT. Thanks!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vash_h:
I would recommend you flash in factory os via odin. If you don't bother to follow instruction from the custom rom op, don't attempt to root the phone or flash a custom rom.

You mentioned you panicked and hit everything you can see in recovery. That's a big no no and seriously don't meddle with it. You'll brick the phone.

Custom rom is in zip file and you do not need to unzip it. You do not use odin to flash in custom rom.

Please follow the instruction from the custom rom op. Seriously follow it. Every single step.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkH2O:
My small sons Fire HD 8 was working this morning but by afternoon it was showing the system recovery screen only. My wife said if she tried to select reboot or power off it would say the battery was too low to complete(or something). It now does not say anything about the battery being too low and will reboot only back to the recovery. I will not power off and stay off if it is connected to power. It will just power back up on its own to the recovery. The device did not have USB debugging on so I have no way to use that to my knowledge.

Is this a loss at this point?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkH2O:
So weird, after numerous reboots and factory resets with no luck, I left it off for maybe an hour and it comes on.

Edit: It powered up to the language select screen but the touch screen no longer worked. I turned it off and back on and it was back to the recovery screen again. :(
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] ibphantom:
Check this out. I wanted to share this. Looks like it's a tool to help flash the latest patches for those of us having problems.

You still need to disable magisk mods and magisk before doing this or you could brick your phone.

After a little more inspecting and a test, it looks like the only options to flash are AOSP testing.

Anybody curious?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] DidgitalReign:
The tool is definetly nice. It helped me re flash stock firmware after being stuck on a bootloop.

[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] alfick3:
I've got a queston about recovering a fully discharged battery. Here's the story. I've got a 128 GB OP3T, that I had to replace the screen and also did the battery. After the parts replacement, I got it up and running and played with it for a bit. Then I did a factory reset with the intent of giving it to my Mother-in-law to replace her crummy old (ancient) LG phone. While we were standing around giving it to her, she turned it on. Turns out she didn't transfer her SIM to the phone. Well, that was two or three weeks ago and it didn't get turned off so it fully discharged. I've found some things telling me to put it on the charger for 5+ hours and that should do the trick. Is that accurate? Have others encountered a fully discharged battery, and how have you managed to bring it back to life? Yesterday, I put it on for about 4, but to no avail.

I do have one more battery (I bought 2 at the same time, but was planning on putting one in my son's 64GB 3T sometime in the future), but I'd like to see what I can do about getting this one going again.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] alfick3:
So I opened it up to replace the battery with the other one I had bought at the same time. Once I got it open I found the connector was not connected. I find that interesting since I had charged and discharged it one time, and even played with it for a day, before turning it off and giving it to my Mother in law. I guess I might not have had it fully seated, and it might have gotten dropped and the connection came loose. But it's fully working now. And I didn't have to use the second battery I bought so still have it to put in my other 3T at some point.

[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luciant:
Hello everyone,

I've been googling this for the past couple days it's been driving me crazy. Stock 7 (I think), should have been unlocked but is showing locked.

1. My friend gave me the Nexus 9 which turned off one day, then wouldn't turn on again.

2. I plugged it in, and it turned on fine. Assumed bad usb port, he said keep it. I enabled developer options, then did "OEM [bootloader?] unlock" and "USB Debugging" toggles on (from memory, may not be right phrasing)

3. While trying to back up his data on it by ADB Pull, it would randomly stop. Using it, it would reboot unexpectedly.

4. So I went to Software Update.. bad idea in retrospect probably it rebooted during or something? It was fully charged and on AC power but I wasn't watching it.

5. I come back and it keeps bootlooping. Went into recovery, says "Device Locked" - Tried clearing cache, no difference. Tried sending bootloader unlock command with fastboot, says I have to delete all data to unlock.

The only lead that I have is that it might be possible to image TWRP to recovery, then boot into it so that I can get files off it (With OTG Flash drive or USB?) - I wanted to ask for help here first.

I did my best to search for this prior, but I've been out of the ROM game since 2012 cyanogenmod days.. Hope that it's possible to save my friend's data, and then also to flash a new ROM which will solve the reboot issue.. Thanks!
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gk1984:
Boot to recover, then when you get the Android mascot with the belly open, press ( I think vol up plus power) to get to a functional recovery with ADB support.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luciant:
Thanks GK,

After going into recovery mode, there's the android mascot with the belly open as you describe. Then, I do (VolUp+Pwr) and it produces this screen below, which I'm guessing people call "fastboot". When I'm there, my Win10 PC makes the "USB item attached" noise, and I can use fastboot commands, but adb devices won't show anything. Do you have any ideas?

[IMG="Fastboot USB menu"]https://i.imgur.com/hyKaqQf.jpg[/IMG]

I thought I could use the fastboot access I have to flash twrp, but I get the following error. I switched the "OEM Unlock" toggle, but i'm guessing that doesn't mean anything until I unlock the bootloader in recovery (which necessitates deleting all the files). I followed the directions on the twrp website which claim that root isn't needed, but I guess unlock is.

PS C:\Users\User Profile\Downloads\platform-tools_r30.0.1-windows\platform-tools> .\fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Sending 'recovery' (13254 KB) OKAY [ 0.838s]
Writing 'recovery' (bootloader) Device State : Locked
FAILED (remote: 'Can not flash any images while device state is locked!')
fastboot: error: Command failed

Thanks again,

luciant
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gk1984:
You need to be in recovery for adb to work. The Android with belly open is recovery but you need to unlock it with a button combo. Fastboot won't work unless you unlocked the bootloader.

I may have the steps a little off for getting to recovery but I'm sure searching how to boot to recover for the Nexus 9 will find you the right steps. It's been a long time since I've used the stock recovery on this tablet.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luciant:
For future bootloopers: Well in the end, I wasn't able to figure out how to pull files using the stock HTC Nexus 9 recovery. Since it was locked, I wasn't able to install or execute TWRP .img , and unlocking it meant losing the files. It was weirdly looping even in Recovery & Fastboot. I tried every mode, and different drivers in the device manager, but ADB couldn't connect. Maybe it's not meant to for security purposes.

If you're bootlooping even in recovery, try the following:

I gave up on trying to recover the data, and decided to just unlock the bootloader. booted to Fastboot (Pwr+Vol Down on start up, select Recovery, Pwr+Vol Up, should say "Fastboot") Then I used fastboot oem unlock, which unlocked the bootloader and Deleted ALL DATA. Then, I could flash TWRP, using fastboot flash recovery twrp.img. Once I flashed TWRP, I booted to twrp recovery using Pwr+Vol Up at boot, wiped all partitions. Then I went to TWRP Advanced -> ADB sideload. Issued adb sideload ota.zip, and this gave me a clean stock install.

Thanks gk for your advice.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doesitburn:
hey there.

so here i am, after purchasing a box/dongle of sort , which allowed me to read and backup the partition that i had on the phone i received while not booting.

the phone is an MTK xiaomi redmi note 4 .

i did backup all the partitions before flashing it.

the phone was constant boot looping , was not solved by flashing it (not cn dev firmware or any other firmware) it did not even went to fastboot.

i have heard that after android 5? the userdata.bin were encrypted .

1, im not to sure if the rumors are true.

2, how its possible to decrypt it ?

3, if i flash the same partition to a working phone, would i be able to read the data out of it ? (note that the answer to that question was yes after asking some one, however it seems difficult to understand how, i mean if there is a key to decrypt the partition shouldnt be in the phone itself who encrypt it ?) hope u guys can clarify if its possible to so , or its just BS.

now if the keys are somewhere can i extract them some how and decrypt the partition so i can get the data out ?

i did try to open it with 7z , ftk imager ..

nothing could open this up.

this is how it looks like

alot of the partitions are fill with

G..Â.ªÕ.E)ÎJØÁõV

470305C290AAD5154529CE4AD8C1F556

i mean i can clearly see that its encoded and see the partern .

i did try to flash twrp, but that did not work (because fastboot does not comes up.)

anyhow , this is it.

thanks for the help in advanced .

(in short how can i save the data of this phone, cheers)

I think a convenient way to remove the encryption from your Android phone is

Go to Settings-->Security

Then under "Credential Storages" click on "Clear all credentials"

im not sure u read my post ;D

its boot looping and wont turn on properly so cant do that .
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 1890170:
It was just a hint for everyone how to avoid the mistake you made. :laugh:

It is the whole point of disk encryption to prevent unauthorized booting. A once encrypted disk/img can't get decrypted by external means as you are trying to do now. May be FBI has the appropriate tools ... That's probably also the reason why Google will, as announced in spring 2019, in the end, remove adb backup/restore from Android.

IMHO you have no chance.

Hi,

my dad has Redmi Note 3 since several months. Everything was working good, but since about two months he can't see anything in Recent Apps. For example, he browse something with Chrome, minimize it with Home button, go to Facebook and minimize it. He should have both Chrome and Facebook in recent apps, but there's nothing there. The problem started without doing any updates or installing new software. His phone works on Android 6.0.1 MMB29M and MIUI 10.2.1.0. Have you got any ideas how to fix it? Preferably, without wiping data...

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Black_Stark:
Install android 9 or 10 and u will see everything in recents.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] metelhammer:
Does restarting device fixes this issue? If it does not then check for update if available which is less likely but give it a try.

Does this happen with any specific set of apps or with all apps?

Make sure there is enough memory available to system to run normally, mostly 500 MB is needed but if possible keep more than that.

Check background process limit in developers options, it should have been set to standard limit if not then set it and check.

If non of this works then flash any stable ROM, i would highly suggest to flash any stable ROM of 9 or 10(10 ROMs has some bugs but 9 ROMs are pretty stable). do backup everything before flashing if you choose to.

But next day, nothing was shown on the screen anymore. Again, I tried gpt-fix-16G.sh and bootrom-step.sh, but It succeeds but does not show the screen. Once, TWRP was displayed for a moment.

2. On Windows Mobile side, run USBTool.exe, select "Attach to Vista"

3. On Windows Vista side, make sure you have a working ActiveSync connection (Windows Mobile device center usb connection should be enabled, you should be able to browse Windows Mobile files from Vista).

4. On Windows Vista side, download itsutils. Unzip it.

5. On Windows Vista side, open a cmd.exe window, and run this command:
