Last couple of days people have been receiving the long awaited Android 10. Possibly few more weeks until the broad release.
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] SnowTalker:
Fakeeeeeee

Someone got their hands on the soak test and started sharing false information, the update has not released, it is just now going in to soak test (2) and nothing has released officially.
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] lollyjay:
That is what I posted read the title :D
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] SnowTalker:

[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] lollyjay:
Progress... ?
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Petrica:
Yes,first 2 files from the archive must be deleted...otherway is clean. :)
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] SnowTalker:
Firmware is released on lolinet for retail. Compatible for all device channels excluding AMX. So you can experience android 10 before it even releases for your country :)
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] LushoxLucid:
I have amx

Why is not suport AMX? i have AMX and i install it by adb fastboot and no problem, if you keep your user data wee need to delete line 'erase user data' and keep 'erase Carrier' and 'erase ddr' lines, because if you not keep 'erase Carrier' and 'erase ddr' lines your brick your phone.
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] LushoxLucid:
This is the code i used to install android 10 for https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/doha/official/RETAIL/

Please be careful and use this code in this order, i not have responsibility if you brick your phone.
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] dneill2006:
Does the bootloader need to be unlocked to flash this?
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] LushoxLucid:
No need

You dont need the bootloader unlocked to use this method, you will need enable oem unlock and usb debugging for developer options and put your phone in bootloader mode and use adb fastboot in powershell or cmd.
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] dneill2006:
Thanks.

My model is XT 2019-1, will it still work OK?
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] dneill2006:
Tried to flash but it failed on "fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin"

Must be because my model is XT 2019-1.
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] NeoandGeo:
Here is the code I used successfully. I initially didn't flash both slots, which ended in a bootloop since I was on the wrong slot afterwards. YMMV if you wish to use the following.
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] SnowTalker:
Please use these commands Instead, I tested them and they work.
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] lollyjay:
I made a windows batch file to automate your commands. I had to call it a .zip file just to make it downloadable in XDA. Just download it and rename it from .zip to .bat. Then run it. Any questions, please ask. Thanks to [MENTION=10894995]SnowTalker[/MENTION] for the commands.
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] lollyjay:
I think that there is a download on lollinet for the RETAIL version of Android 10. I'm on the road, so if someone can check it out, that would be great.
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] SnowTalker:
That's what I used with these commands.
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] LushoxLucid:
I have a question

Why flash two slots?
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] lollyjay:
If you set active slot then you do not have to.
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] LushoxLucid:
OK but

OK, but i delete 'erase user data' line and keep my files and configuration, thanks for you support.
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] NeoandGeo:
After bootlooping I decided to skip the process of finding out which slot was causing it, checking to see if the flash was serviceable after switching slots. Then I chose to have a clean Android Q install on both slots.
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] LushoxLucid:
Shure

In the terminal if you dont specify slots the terminal shows error and automatically flash the two slots, but if you specify the two slots the terminal in theory dont shows error.

I consider the option install clean android Q but if you install the new updates come out use fastboot its hard clean the phone every time, of course the option to brick your phone incrase if you update android P to Q and dont erase your user data, that and your phone come slow.
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] dneill2006:
Has anyone successfully flashed this on XT 2019-1?
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Petrica:
Yep,THANK YOU ! You ROCK !

First time was scary,but after second......Yupiiii !

All the best for you and yours !
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] dneill2006:
Is your model XT 2019-1 or XT 2019-2?
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Petrica:
Is XT 2019-1,Europe.
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] dneill2006:
Did you not get an error when flashing the modem like this?
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Petrica:
Nope.But I flashed twice.

-all drivers installed and Minimal ADB and Fastboot

-on phone OEM unlock and USB debug active

-In a folder on desktop i unpacked ROM and the .zip file renamed .bat

-run the .bat file

After phone started I made a factory reset from phone and restored OEM lock.My phone is not rooted or Unlocked-no TWRP.
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] LushoxLucid:
Is a good idea for install update but i edit XMLFlashfile and delete erase userdata line and pack in zip again.
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] methuselah:
I suggest you do not flash ROM like that. Let the official ROM OTA arrive. I ****ed up device with half ass commands and now the device is hard bricked. This kind of issues also came inside my command panel.
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] lollyjay:
Just a heads-up for anyone with the XT2019-1 version. I just successfully flashed the RETEU version of Android 10 using my FlashAllPartitions.bat. Working great.
[Moto G8 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Petrica:
Indeed!

Mine(XT2019-1) working nice too,smooth and No draining battery noticed.

Indeed a very good job done!Thank you!

For moderators: THIS PROJECT ISN'T BASED ON TWRP

Pterodon recovery is an android custom recovery developed by XDA member ATG Droid, this project is just another attempt in bringing another custom recovery in to the android development scene. For some time this project is going to be closed source, so that the community gets to know it first and later it gets open sourced so that the whole community can contribute and develop something awesome out of this.

Remember that this project is in alpha development stage, which means that only few things are actually working, for example the main features which you would expect from a custom recovery are not even implemented yet, so the builds are right now only for testing.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antonpelayo:
So I'm trying to fix my mom-in-laws tablet - at first it was stuck at a reboot loop.

But once I managed to switch it off and charge to 100% it stopped looping, but only goes to the logo screen then switches off.

I experimented a little - and found out if I hold the power button, it will load to the home screen.

Now I tried doing a factory reset by holding power+volume down + home button > it reaches the reboot menu but I can't make a selection because once I release the power button it switches off.

Wondering if there's anything I can do? I'd rather not buy spare parts and open up the tablet - and I'd also rather not bring it to a shop..

Any help would be appreciated!
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PandaKiller:
I have more new about this issue.

I found a hardware fix for this, but it requires some soldering skills.

It seems that power consumption is triggering the baterry power protection.

I manage to bypass the battery protection circuit on the battery and it solves the power cycles.

If anyone wants help on this, I will try do take some pictures.

I also re-solder the power connector on the table PCB because it is weekly soldered...

How to bypass the battery protection circuit?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PandaKiller:
If you zoom in my picture from above, you can see the soldered white wires on the small PCB from the battery.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foolone:
Thanks. I have a different tablet (SM-T800) and the battery looks different. How did you figure out the pins for bypass the protection circuit.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PandaKiller:
I'm an electronic engineer, working in microelectronics testing, specialized in Power Management 😉

But at the end, if you have freaking shutdowns, I decided to replace a battery by a power source, and then came out with the Idea of bypassing the over current circuit in the battery. Just a multimeter and a soldering iron and that's it!
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drager2011:
Hi. I have the same problem on a tab s t805 tablet, I understand this problem is from the battery? if i change it, will it still have this problem? Thank you.View attachment 5755611
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drager2011:
1.if I enter force restore mode and after taking my finger off the power button it shuts down.

if I have my finger on the power button and use the arrow button in this menu, it moves up - down.

2.if I turn on the tablet, the logo appears and after 3 seconds it restarts and keeps restarting.

3.if I enter the software installation mode, it successfully completes this process and if finished it restarts and returns to problem 2.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PandaKiller:
I don't believe your problem is with the battery. The random reboots because of the battery only occurs when the battery is not full. If you have a charged battery and the USB Power cable connected, it should not have random reboots.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drager2011:
I charged the tablet up to 100% and it does the same thing, it restarts after a few seconds! do you think this problem could be from the motherboard or do you have another idea?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PandaKiller:
You may need to flash a new ROM using Odin.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marek429:
Hello @drager2011 did you solve the problem?

I got the same identical problem, I also managed to bypass the battery circuit as shown by @PandaKiller by using external power supply to power the tablet; I also tried to flash twrp and the stock rom but nothing works, i'm not able to enter recovery mode without keep pressing the power button (even if I keep the power button pressed and enter twrp, after a while the tablet restarts, I think it is due to the fact that I hold down the power button).

Can you please help me? I have no more idea on how to solve the problem; i'm thinking that there is some kind of hardware problem but i can't figure it out.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drager2011:
Hy @marek249,I was unable to solve the problem. From what I have read it is a hardware problem and you don't pre find someone to fix it but have to change the motherboard or come up with parts. I myself bought the motherboard (model t800 which is compatible with the parts the only difference is that it has no gsm function). I bought the motherboard on aliexpress, if you are interested, write me and I'll leave you the link with the ad! Best regards

[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] magicman29:
I've tried searching and have had no luck or have just gotten more confusing results, but how can root a fully unlocked T-Mobile OP8? The bootloader is unlocked and I am next trying to root it, so I can fix my dumb mistake of bricking the fingerprint scanner from relocking the bootloader (couldn't use a lot of apps). If there is a way to fix the fingerprint scanner without rooting, please let me know. I understand that is has to do with a broken persist.img, but I do not know how to correct this.

From what I've read about rooting the OP8, you need to have the firmware of the same version installed on the device and since T-Mobile variants don't publicly have their firmware available (can't find them anywhere) and I can't patch the payload.bin (because of lack of firmware download availability)...

Thanks!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mrrtahoo:
Hi !

So i purchased a phone a few months back but since then i'm unable to use 4G on this phone. I've tried everything available through google's help and have turned to XDA as a last resort. I've tried

1. Hard reset (No luck)

2. Restoring default apn settings (No Luck)

3. Changing the connectivity settings via third party app (No Luck)

4. Changing sim cards.

5. Changing sim slots.

Edit:

6. Just tried to change the hw_networkmode_preference from setdb and couldn't find this setting there. created new setting for this and entered 9,6,2,1,11. Now i get 4G only option but as soon as i select 4G the phone shows No service.

All of the above tried multiple times without any luck to get it working. Its like its just stuck o 3G and wont use 4G although the option is there. The sim card's $g connection works fine in my other phone. but not this one. If anyone has any idea how to get it working please respond ASAP as i need this phone working for my sister and cannot afford another.

My Phone Info :

1. Name: Huawei Y7 2018

2. Model: LDN - L21

3. EMUI Version: 8.0.0

I get that. but the same carrier allows 4G to be used on other phones. why not this phone ? its got to be a software bug or maybe they forgot to install 4G hardware:)

[Huawei P30 Pro Questions & Answers] vidar808:
After the last update to the phone this new menu has shown up when I swipe left or right on the screen. It shows a small group of four rectangles that open up a list of apps. It is conflicting with other apps that utilize the left or right swipe & have no use for it. I have looked everywhere & can't seem to locate the setting. I figured it must be a new feature added with an update.

Hi,

I have my U12+ with dev Options enabled, and last week my display is broken, no chance to made any input with it. Last backup is some moth ago, but I'd made a several week long travel, all pictures are gone, any things I stored on it.

Yes, I know, if I'd made an backup .... But this doesn't help me in this case, afterwards you're everytime smarter....

If there is a chance to copy the data on my Laptop? May sideload TWRP? Is it possible on U12+? :(

If you have any idea, please help! Also I would pay for it.

This is my first proper Indian phone, been using it since past 2 year, pure stock just the gcam.

I wish to root it now and use a custom rom.

Can you great guys point me to the latest unlocking and rooting procedure as i am on latest firmware now and not sure if older methods will work or not.

Secondly could you please point me yo a stable, custom rom that is very smooth to operate, battery efficient, without any bugs and can handle all banking apps and stuff.

I am okay if its Android 9 or 10 just a thoroughly stable rom.

Thank you in advance
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] nicoboum:
Hello,

Just did it two days ago, follow this thread (and the linked thread when necessary, like the TWRP one) :

https://xdaforums.com/asus-zenfone-max-pro-m1/how-to/discussion-unlocking-bootloader-t3786698

Three things to remember for the script to work :

1/ You need to enable USB debugging in developrs options

2/ You need to install the Windows drivers for your phone, that is, when connected through USB, you shouldn't see a yellow exclamation mark in your Windows Device Manager

3/ It doesn't work with Rizen CPU on USB 3.0 port

Once you know that it's pretty straightforward. Oh, one thing that happened to me right after unlocking bootloader is that it asked for password to access Data partition, I had to restart to recovery and wipe Data partition once more.

Don't forget to backup everything before starting, and have fun, this device has a lot of nice ROMs to try :)
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] lord dredd:
Thanks mate

Can you confirm if b Kong apps re working fine upon unlock and root with the custom roms
