AFAIK yes (google generally about flashing from MIUI eea to global and vice versa), but you must have unlocked Bootloader to be able to flash (unpacked) fastboot/tgz firmware by XiaoMiFlash tool or by flash_all.bat:

I wouldn't do that because of the version. Note that with version 12.0.2.0 EWR / Global was exactly different.

see europe and global alternate constantly. within the next few days the 12.0.3.0 or 12.0.4.0 will also appear, I'm quite sure of that

Hello All,

This is a question for all the Chiefs masters,

A days ago Noonski, release the first open beta of him rom, the greatest Touch Surface.

My friend who have a ELF install it and show me, my first reaction was "OH MY GOD", is a unbelievable rom!!

It's very stable, amazing boot time and with a lot, a lot of useful aps!

The think who have more impressed me was the new cube system.

Not anymore the old and lagged cube, but a new one with a lot of more functionality substituting the program and system folder!

My question now is:

There is possible we ported this rom for wizard?

we will have the same stability and speed on it?

Someone have interest to do that??

I could try by myself, but afeter try a lot of times to **** my own rom, i gave up and i notice that i don't have the knowingness and free time enough to do that.

So if someone want try it, i can help testing it!

That's all folks! make you comments

Just to be certain, Bootloader was unlocked, OEM unlocking was checked. ( I rooted the PH1 before and it was simple enough last year but idk what's happing now)

I was on Feb update, wanted to go and apply the patched boot so I can at least apply root. Followed this guide post #7.

https://xdaforums.com/essential-phone/how-to/android-10-unsupported-unknown-format-t4072429

But when i try to fastboot flash boot <filename>. I get this error "FAILED (remote: Error flashing partition.)"

So I searched some more and discovered this.

https://xdaforums.com/essential-phone/help/flash-twrp-error-flashing-partition-t3834804

And I get the same exact issue in this thread with " FAILED (remote: Flash Write Failure)".

Basically anything to do with wiping fails, and it seems everything wipes first then writes. SO I think i wiped everything I was going to subsequently write but the phone never allowed writing.

Im at a lost in a current bootloader boot loop. Fastboot still recognises the device but further research has me seeing eeprom corrupt chip preventing writing..

Anyone got this fixed? Sorry for the original terrible post... I was a bit in disarray...

[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] hammer7t:
I had a similar issue some time back and writes to either slot would result in failure. Some smaller images would write sometimes. I thought the hardware failed...

But then I read somewhere that bad USB cables can cause issues so although I had used the same 6 ft cable to write many many times, I switched to a short length high quality cable and boom everything was back to normal. No issues since then for 6 months now.

Try it if you have not done so already.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] Reckerr:
im cofused as hell. 100% dumbfounded. I had an old rusty usb cable i threw over my wall. I literally went for it and plug it in an old laptop and it worked. Its currently accepting all flashes no errors at all....

wtf. And I tried 3 different brand USB cables as well. Type A to C. and the original C to C. I even used the same cable and same laptop I used to root the device last year but it have errors. I am legit confused. How can the cable work one time and then legit refuse the other. It was eeven a cable recommended on here(or reddit) a long time ago to use WITH flashing and roms etc.

Mine was mainly on the sides left side was real bad. Well I returned it,so sorry Motorola nice hardware that suffers with that 1st year bugs
[Motorola Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] zoomer296:
Right side for me. Still, just because it's faded doesn't mean it's over. I wanted to unlock the bootloader, but I can't go voiding the warrantee when I may end up needing it.

I'll probably return it and wait for the US release of the G 5G equivalent.

If all it needed was a break-in, that should've been done at the factory.

Such a shame, I really liked the Moto Edge design, size and battery life. Unfortunately it seems that Motorola can't make phones, had a screen related issue on my Moto X Force a few years back too, seems like Motorola have not improved at all.
[Motorola Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Ace42:
I assume it's difficult to have good yields due to the waterfall design. There could be a relatively high failure for this type of design.

It's funny how my 2nd Edge is exhibiting the same green tint. I was so sure I could put this behind me.
[Motorola Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] khan1989:
The waterfall design isn't new though. Other OEMs have made similar style displays (Samsung, OPPO etc) and none then have such a high failure rate like this.
[Motorola Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Ace42:
Whatever the source is, Moto is clearly struggling to obtain good panels. Reviews say the screen is great but they fail so easily. It's beyond strange.

Green tint seems to come before purple streaks and double images, no? Look at reviews on best buy, green tint is the least of your worries.

Also you could use swift installer to make certain apps black. I only noticed the green tint cause I happened to have another phone next to the edge.

3 days in from bestbuy retail stock, box has a 20 october 2020 date on it. No screen issues. Of course, when I have the light theme enabled there are often situations where I can see a slight greenish/grey hue to the edge as it begins to curve. That's just optics and not at all as some of the pics I have seen. Sweet ride so far.

I got this phone at January 2021, on July i noticed just a little GREEN spot on the bottom left side (between the curved screen and frame). I attached an image... the green spot is not that big, but i didn't want to wait and let it increase so lose the warranty.

Brought the phone to the motorola assistance, after 5 days i got it back with a new screen replaced.

For now not having no problems, and i hope they used a better screen than the originals faulty factory ones.
[General Questions and Answers] rbahr:
Hi All,

I am considering a OnePlus 6T. My issue is that I am not looking for a phone, just a secure device I can do some web activity with, and use as an old style PIM device. I actually expect that I would pull the Sim card.

That said, I suspect that I would want to root this thing and eviscerate this thing of any bloatware as well as ties to Google or anyone for that matter.

I have not done any Android programming, but have been using Linux since the SysV days (mid to late 70's) and in a pretty serious sorta way, and I have even more experience with embedded systems.

Questions are: Can I make the 6T do what I want - private web browser, no calls, data storage, music, photos, etc...

Thanks

Ray
[General Questions and Answers] Raiz:
Hi,

First of all it's an honor to have a Linux veteran here (I mean 70's !)

You can turn your OnePlus 6T in a privacy oriented device installing LineageOS without installing GApps. LineageOS is a ROM based on AOSP and not Google, every app is aosp and if you don't flash GApps (a zip that install Google Services and Apps), your device will be Google-free.

You'll be able to take photos, listen to music, browse internet and even have a "market place" by installing F-Droid or another alternative app store. For that you'll need to install APK files (those are like .exe but for Android) that you can download online. But beware, sometimes the files may contain a virus, so download from trusted website only (E.g: Apkmirror, F-Droid, XDA-Labs,...).

For private web browser I can advise Tor Browser, but browsing will be slow, as this browser includes a very powerful VPN.

I just wanted to precise, being Google-free and being invisible is very different. If you're more into things like Tor Browser (meaning you want full privacy, not being seen from anyone), you may take a look at GrapheneOS. It a ROM you can flash like LineageOS, but it is very privacy-oriented. But it is available only for Pixel Devices, so you may wanna consider buying one (the Pixel 4a which just came out has really good camera, not very powerful for gaming but can surely browse the internet. It doesn't have a build of GrapheneOS yet, since it just came out, but it'll surely come).

Here is a vid explaining: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=hrDUOtWXGv8

Here is their website: https://grapheneos.org/

If you need any extra info, just mention or quote me so I get notified ;)

Have a good one
[General Questions and Answers] rbahr:
This great information and exactly what I want!

I know about Tor, and I want privacy, but, at least for this application, not looking to be invisible since I will be interacting via email and browser.

Thanks

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] nairb011:
Hello all, while drunk at the beach this weekend I accidentally went into the water with my Touch Diamond in my pocket... stupid... I know, did I mention I was drunk? Anyways, the current issue at hand is what to do with my screwed up cell phone.

I took the backing, battery and SIM card out of the phone and let it dry out as much as I could since the weekend. When I turned it on this morning, the "smart mobility" text appears for a few seconds, but the phone shuts off shortly after that. Do batteries usually break from water damage, as well?

If anyone has any advice for me I would greatly appreciate it. Does anyone know of a legit place that can repair this? Is there anything I can do to try and remedy this problem? Or would you recommend I just sell/ditch this one and get a new phone? Thanks a lot.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Antimus:
Have you tried charging the battery? that might explain it only booting for a second, the other explanation is that it's fried the ROM chips and only the bootloader works.

It's not looking good, is it under warranty?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] dajudge01:
Disassemble your Diamond completely (manual floating around somewhere in this forum), clean all pieces using one of these isopropanol-brush-thingies, reassemble, turn it on - and pray. Any year - a new battery might be a good idea. No promises on anything of that though. The diamond is a very integrated piece of technology and you might have short-circuited something on one of the PCBs really. No guarantee that everything will work as usual even if the device comes up as well.

Warranty seems to be out of the question - I guess virtually any repair center will notice residue of loads of salt water on the first look inside...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Antimus:
That's true, I meant to say insurance, heh.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] wardy:
Strip it down Salt water is very and I mean very corrosive ! You have nothing to lose and everything to gain by doing this . Waranty repair will be expensive.

Clean with an alchol based cleaner as advised but you must ensure you get all the salt out. To see it boot means that the screen has survived ( Amazed by this ) .

Best of luck , oh and if it does not work are you insured for accidental damage on personal items on your household insurance. This could be the next route
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] SOLSchweiz:
I have the same problem with my Tytn 2. It got wet during the "Oranje" Party in Basel, when the firemen were "cooling" down the fans...

It boots..but as soon as it has booted, you here a lot of "bling..bling..bling.." and it shuts down.. the batterie doesn't charge..

You recommend to open and clean it with alcool? Actually I'm not sure if it was washed by the firemen or by my own alcool .ehhehe..

I have a Diamond now, but if I get it back to work, I would sell it on ebay.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] SuperJan65:
There is a watersensor inside the diamond. They'll notice that the device has been in the water.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] nairb011:
Luckily I was at lake Michigan in Chicago (fresh water), for whatever that's worth, so I'm not really worried about salt corroding anything away. I bought it off eBay unlocked, I did buy insurance but, naturally, I'm pretty sure that this water damage won't be covered.

Sounds like taking it apart and cleaning it might be my best bet. Do you guys think that any cell phone repair place would be able to help me out? Anyone know of a good cell phone repair shop (in the U.S.)? Thanks for the help thus far guys, I really appreciate it
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] imranbashir_uk:
Firstly remove the battery and SIM, please do not try to power up or charge again as you might have already damaged it beyond repair.

Isopropanol or IPA is what you need (100% Alcohol), you can get this from your local chemist for about £5 a bottle.

You need to strip your phone down completely and use an anti static PCB brush to clean the whole lot (Buy it from Maplin), submerge it in a plate of IPA (excluding the screen) while cleaning. As for the warranty sticker remove this by first heating with a hair drier, then uing a Stanley knife point to remove it.

Once it’s all been cleaned and dried in air, re-assemble and power up. If it fails to work take it back for a warranty replacement. As the warranty sticker is intact, and all the evidence of water damage will have been removed, they should replace it for you without a problem.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Deleted member 368662:
Pretty sure? I would check if I was you before doing anything else with it. If insurance doesnt cover water damage, what does it cover? Phone insurance is so expensive i thought they covered everything like theft and accidental damage, I thought the idea was a warranty wont cover you if you break the phone but insurance will.

I'm thinking it may be an idea to check before you do anything else so they dont say "Well we cover water damage, but now youve taken apart the phone we cant cover you"
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] webmice:
Seriously you are not hoping warranty will cover "swimming with the diamond"... :)

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] nairb011:
My warranty does not cover accidental water damage, that is for sure.

I charged the battery up over the weekend and tried turning it back on, and, to my utter amazement, the phone completely powered on. I got to all of my menus and was able to use all of the programs that I opened, even the WiFi worked.

However, the functionality of the touch screen is quite screwed up. I don't know if its shorting out or what but there are basically "ghost taps" and other unintentional actions happening all the time. For example, if I were to just leave it at the home screen it would eventually scroll to another menu, open the start pull-down menu, automatically open the calendar and start doing random ****, etc.

Does anyone know how to fix the touch screen or have any ideas on how to replace one? I have a faint hope that this thing might not be beyond saving.. thanks a lot people
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] sandeman684:
Maybe try to re-calibrate the touch screen?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Black93300ZX:
Don't give up hope, sometimes these things can take days, even weeks to fully dry and become functional. My mom had a sony ericsson somethingorother that she loved, dropped in the tub, didn't work for like a month or more... She'd check it every week or so to see, and slowly the features started coming back... Little by little, more and more buttons would respond (without activating 2 or 3 at a time). Well, long story short (too late?) works 100% now. I don't think water damage is a reparable occurrence, but DON'T sell your Diamond for parts or anything like that, keep it around and check back periodically. Best of luck.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] deuillevent:
there is a little white sticker onto the battery.

If it goes RED it shows HTC that the Phone/Battery went into the water.

This allows HTC to avoid repair "sunk" phones
