First of all Thanks to [MENTION=3127371]Buster99[/MENTION] and his Solution for fixing this problem,

This guide is for helping you to fix Unrecoverable bootloader error, Hope it will help you out of this problem.

Download “Minimal ADB and Fastboot”. Make a folder C:/Fastboot and extract it there and install it. Download firmware WW_V10.6.1.27.5 from the ASUS official website and unzip it twice. Copy the .blob file from WW_V10.6.1.27.5 into the folder C:/Fastboot. Connect the tablet to PC via USB cable.

Open “Minimal ADB and Fastboot” and put in "fastboot devices"or “adb devices”. The device should appear as "real serial number".

Now type following command-lines in cmd-window step by step (wait after every step!):

fastboot erase system

fastboot erase recovery

fastboot erase user data

fastboot erase boot

fastboot erase misc

fastboot erase cache

After that open C:\put in cmd "fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash system blob" without " " .

Now it takes a while "sending..." appears then "write..." and the load status will be shown.

If loading is finished put in "fastboot -i 0x0B05 reboot". It takes a while to start into a clean JB 4.2.2!

Good luck! :cowboy:

Hello and thanks for your reply. I've already did it without a success. It seems don't work with locked bootloader. Like I said the erase misc command freezing and don't work.

I think this tablet is good to the trash.

Thanks for your time.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ebonit:
You are welcome! Using the thanks button is greatly appreciated.

Please note, as long as you can access the device via fastboot or ADB is always hope to rescue it. Before you really give up have a look at this thread https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2179759. You will also find an answer for your misc issue.

Hey guys, I was wondering if theres a black list feature in Kavana 6.1?

I remember playing with my phone and i found that option, but iuno where it was.

also, by blacklist i mean to block ppl from calling me.

Also... Im having a problem with MMS, for some reason some ppl can send me pictures and some cant. I already did the Cnnection Setup, but... for some reason i have to friends that can't send me pictures but my brother can.

I know its not my friends phones becuz they send pics to eachother

also, my brohter is on my family plan

theyre on ATT and im on T-Mobile

thanks in advance!

[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] letsdream:
Hi,

I have purchased a smartcover (from cadorabo.de, see link at the bottom of this message) with :

an horizontal window on the top half of the screen and an horizontal stripe to answer the calls in the middle of the bottom half.

a magnet in the middle of the right side.

By default it seems Huawei P10 is designed for:

a vertical window over the right third of the display

a magnet just left of the fingerprint sensor to trigger it

It seems that P10 has 2 hall effect sensors: one dedicated to smart cover and a magnetometer on top right corner.

Question 1: can P10 adjust to this format of smart cover?

Question 2: can P10 adjust to use the top right magnetometer hall effect sensor instead of the one left of fingerprint.

Hi,

I have a Global version of the Red Magic 5g (Pulse)

I'm trying to update but I keep getting this message

"Your device is Root"

I didn't never rooted my device

Maybe I did some ADB work to activate gestures

But that was it

How can I bypass this or "unroot"
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S  Questions & Answers] An Droid:
Try and download the full rom update instead of the incremental one. It'll be a manual update directly from the redmagic website (~2.7GB) which you can then manually update from the update menu.

You'll want v.4.13 as per your screenshot.

[Samsung Galaxy Fold Questions & Answers] danergo:
Hi!

I'm thinking on using the small outer screen while the phone is unfolded (opened).

WHY?

Because when I want to charge my Buds wireless with the phone, this would be amazingly useful:

1. Open the phone

2. Activate powershare

3. Put it onto some soft surface facing down with the large screen

4. Drop the buds onto the charge pad under the cams, and use the small screen while your other device is charging

Noone thought of this yet?

Anything gets charged now makes your phone unusable.

Or I am missing something here?

Thanks if you share your thoughts.

I hope there is some way to turn on the small screen while the phone is opened. Maybe with some FoldStar option? Who knows?

Like on this marketing bullsh×t :D

I agree, I never understood why users are so quick to try/use 3rd party kernels. I normally test drive the built-in kernel for whatever ROM I am using for at least a week or so, then if anything, I will use EX Kernel (through the paid app) but its also freely available I believe.

Can someone, anyone, try to (re)mount /system in RW? I need to know if /system is dedup'd and not able to remount in RW. I need to write files to /system and thats only possible in RW. I am not 100% on this ROM yet (back and forth) and right now on a different OS and forgot to check. This is the deciding factor so if anyone could just simply try to remount /system in RW, I would greatly appreciate it! I use FX File Explorer with ROOT add-on for RW, but any file manager will work. Its not so easy for me to flip back and forth with my work MFA profiles otherwise I would just redo LOS 18 and test it myself. I literally rolled over the OS last night and it took a few hours so I am not ready to redo the work again unless /system is RW so thats why I cant do it myself right now. If no one answers in a few days, I will probably try it again but I would rather make it a final build attempt, not a test build attempt as it takes hours to redo the MFA's.

Thanks in advance!

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] zimral.xda:
Hello, i am coming over from the Samsung Galaxy S5 (klte) world. I am using LOS (currently 17.1 and 18.1) on a daily basis for office/business purposes with 2 phones. After buying a Pixel5 for my wife i was able to get her old Pixel2. It still runs Stock A11 but without updates now. Therefore i decided to install LOS18.1 for the Pixel2. For my S5 i use the TWRP to install/maintain custom roms. i never used the Lineage recovery image.

My questions are now:

1.) is it mandatory to use the lineage recovery or can i stay with TWRP for any Pixel? Found a TWRP for walleye already.

2.) is there an installation guide for TWRP and the pixel2, i was not able to locate one at the moment. i think it will be installed via adb?

3.) are there any pros and cons or bad experiences regarding usage of TWRP instead of LOS recovery? mean is it maintained by the ROM maintainers?

Thx in advance.

after upgrading i tried to fastboot flash magisk patched boot.img without success, always boot looping.

somebody with an idea will be appreciated ;-)
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] btbs:
@baxxter106 I don't know if it applies to you but when I tried LOS18.1 (20210406) + MidTheGapps the system booted fine. When I then flashed Magisk the system wouldn't boot (just kept the LOS boot logo going for over 1hr before I gave up). When I changed MindTheGapps to NikGapps my Pixel 2/walleye booted with no issues; Magisk + safetynetfix1.1.1 + MagiskHidePropsConf all installed ok and biometrics & safetynet passed with all apps working. I ended up having to hide Magisk app to get one app to work but all running ok now. It looks like there might have been some sort of problem/conflict with MindTheGapps.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] btbs:
@zimral.xda this is what I did to get my Pixel2 upgraded from LOS17.1 to 18.1:

1. Download twrp + LOS18.1 + Gapps + Magisk (I started using MindTheGapps as recommended in post #1 but got some sort of bootloop until I changed over to NikGapps)

2. Use payload_dumper-win64 to extract boot.img (needed for Magisk)

3. Put LOS18.1 + Gapps + Boot.img onto usb

4. Reboot to bootloader (adb reboot bootloader)

5. Fastboot into TWRP recovery (fastboot boot twrp.img)

6. Via twrp

a. For initial install format data

b. flashed LOS18.1 from usb

c. rebooted to twrp (not sure this was necessary but saw somewhere it was recommended)

d. flashed Gapps from usb

e. rebooted to system

7. Installed Magisk app from usb and went through the install patch images as per the Magisk guide

8. Rebooted to system

9. From Magisk installed safetynetfix1.1.1 + MagiskHidePropsConf

10. Enabled terminal from developer ops (rather than downloading terminal app) then

a. su

b. props

c. followed prompts to set pixel2/android11 fingerprint

11. Rebooted and cleared data/cache for Google play and google pay

Almost all finicky apps worked but had one where I had to hide (rename) magisk to get it to work. I have working biometrics, Google Play, Google Pay, etc

Hope that helps.

I installed the lastest LOS 18.1, MindtheGapps on Pixel 2.

I found two issues:

1. GPS is not working on the Google Map app. I tested the GPS with other apps and the GPS signal is fine.

2. Phone contact is not syncing. Contact is not on the list of sync on Google Account setting.

Anyone have the same issues?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] btbs:
No, as @73sydney said, I clean flashed with NikGapps
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Rayfen Windspear:
Yeah, getting the same as reported trying to flash magisk after 18.1 + MindTheGapps + Magisk. Sounds like it's something with the gapps? That doesn't seem to make sense, but if that's the issue, then I guess I'd better get me some of these different gapps I guess?

If anyone has it working with the recommended gapps, then I'd love to know about it. I'm less at liberty to wipe my device just this moment.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
I actually had to switch from NikGapps to MindtheGapps as even with a full wipe of the system partition I ran into space issues even after modifying the NikGapps config. So now I have to figure out where I went wrong and take steps to correct the issue.

At the glacial pace OpenGapps is moving they'll have their Android 11 packages out AFTER Android 12 is released. It's irritating they aren't ready to go because while it's apparently not recommended in some quarters, I prefer the AOSP apps to be deleted when the Google versions are installed. NikGapps supposedly does this as well, but it seems hit or miss to me. This is an OCD thing: I know I can freeze apps with SD Maid which removes them from the app drawer, but doesn't remove them from Settings > Apps.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] friedsonjm:
Yes, mine is working with the recommended gapps. However, I also wish I could choose to install just the Google versions. I'm not currently interested in wiping everything clean and starting over again right now, however.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Eamo5:
I'd highly recommend you do not use Nikgapps. There are reasons why it is not a recommended gapps package for use with Lineage OS. MindTheGapps is the only formally supported gapps package at the moment.

MindTheGapps works perfectly fine with Magisk 22.1 for me, so I'm not sure where this misinformation about MindTheGapps being incompatible with Magisk is coming from?

Also you do not need to clean flash to switch gapps packages. Dirty flash should be fine if you do it in recovery, although a clean flash is always preferred.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Curiosity question. What are the reasons, besides the obvious regarding running out of space trying to use them, NikGapps isn't recommended?
