Thanks, man. Can we we sign up for the Android 11/One UI 3.0 beta with this model?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] tdodd:
I don't know. I think the usual path would be through the Members app, but there is no sign of the beta there for me.

You could see what you find in this thread - https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-note-20-ultra/how-to/android-11-oneui-3-0-beta-thread-t4176533/page8

Personally I'll be steering clear of beta testing. I don't need to start fixing things that aren't broken. ;)

Tried Android Auto on CHC - it works with no issues, Google Pay works as well.

So I think CHC is the best SM-N9860 firmware to date.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] iharish:
pls can anyone explain what is FRIJA and the autoupdater.xml about and how to change CHC for CSC field

1. You need to downgrade from lates TGY to July BRI (yes, BRI) version of the firmware (https://xdaforums.com/gal...gkong-t4163363)

2. After BRI is installed and up, download the latest CHC (I used Frija - https://github.com/SlackingVeteran/frija, use "CHC" for CSC field)

Hi all.

can i flash another country's firmware on N9860?

for example i want to install emirates software or egypt's. how will that affect the device?

thanks in advance.

I guess, having CHC firmwate you can set any CSC code, but you need to check if the emirates firmware supports Snapdragon

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] a43:
Android Auto will not work on Chinese firmware. App will run but will not work. To have both call recording and android auto you have to be rooted and then you can use TGY firmware.

Android Auto worked well on the date of post (Oct 22, 2020) on the phone AND in the car. It was Android 10.

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] vbaros:
Is it possible to downgrade to older firmware? At the moment I have this years September patch. Without rooting or unlocking if possible.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Philnicolls89:
Every few months samsung will update the bootloader along with the firmware. You can only downgrade to an older firmware so long as it has the same bootloader version as what you are currently running. Not possible to downgrade bootloader even with root unfortunately.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] vbaros:
Is there a list of firmwares where you can see the bootloader version?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Philnicolls89:
The bootloader version number is written in the firmware version. Go to sammobile and browse the firmwares for your phone model to compare.

Example:

The latest October firmware for my s10+ is G975FXXS9DTI8. The '9' before the DTI8 represents the bootloader.

Im currently on the September firmware which is G975FXXU8DTH7. The '8' before the DTH7 represents the bootloader.

So when I decide to update, there will be no going back.

Hope this helps

[Moto G5S  Questions & Answers] SvenHee:
I've been trying to install one of the android 10 lineages on my wife's phone.

It keeps on bootlooping and by now I have tried so many combinations of twrp and restores, wipes, different roms and restoring the backup of an android 9 lineage.

The phone keeps bootlooping, sometimes in the "your bootloader is unlocked" message and sometimes in the lineage startup movie.

It even seems to bootloop in the twrp startup screen, but maybe it is just slow and my impatience is getting too high.

I've tried two different twrp versions as one gave an error in restoring a backup (I think the newest one gave the error).

Could it be that a backup made in the older twrp cannot be restored with the newer twrp?

I'm running out of options and may need to go back to stock, which is not the easiest path to take.

Oh, the phone was rooted when I made the backup, if that makes a difference...

Any thoughts?

[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Asti92:
Hi!

After flashing my first phone (Nexus 5) using my Fedora Workstation OS, I got encouraged and decided to degoogle my Motorola X4 and install Lineage_OS on it. I have Moto X4 XT1900-7. I successfully unlocked the bootloader and downloaded newest TWRP (3.4.0.0) for my device. I moved the zip file to my platform tools folder and than used:

sudo fastboot flash boot recovery.img

Unfortunately I think, the recovery.img file was TWRP that I previously used to install LineageOS on Nexus 5. My phone showed that it was installed in partition B

After that I used command:

sudo fastboot boot recovery.img

And nothing was happening. So in the fastboot mode I manually picked recovery mode, this is when my device went into infinite loop, and at the end it kicked me back to fastboot screen - it looks like that right now (see pictures below). I can't access recovery mode, I can't flash any other version of TWRP (I tried), I can't start the device.

I will be forever grateful if you can give me some help - what do I have to do now to go back to stock ROM or to proceed with installing LIneage_OS? I'm not very advanced so please forgive me if I will be asking some stupid questions here! :)

No bootable A/B slot

Failed to boot Linux, falling back to fastboot

Fastboot Reason: Fall-through from recovery boot mode
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] htsmi:
The x4 is an A/B device so the partition setup has changed a bit. There is not longer a recovery partition and the recovery is embedded into boot partition BUT you can't just flash it like you did – that will wipe out the bootimage of the ROM. You also should not have to use `sudo` with fastboot. Read the instructions here to install TWRP, or if you just want to use it temporarily, skip the installing the zip part.

I'm surprised `fastboot boot twrp.img` is not working for you. But you may need to re-flash the stock boot partition that you overwrote with the boot partition from one of the zips here. Determine your current version by running `fastboot getvar all`. If you can't match your current version, you may have to flash the entire stock ROM. Open the flashfile.xml to determine the fastboot commands you need to run. For example:

<step MD5="fab3b8601a77f38f851d9ccbb191def7" filename="bootloader.img" operation="flash" partition="bootloader"/> => fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
<step MD5="b7b1b121f4f96a4a7e1b24848ed3f23b" filename="NON-HLOS.bin" operation="flash" partition="modem"/> => fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
and so on...

I would skip the steps to erase any partitions until you have booted into TWRP and backed up everything. Speaking of which, as soon as you get into TWRP... back up persist and everything else other than system and data to an SD card!

---------- Post added at 08:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:04 AM ----------

And after re-reading your first post, you definitely need to use the proper TWRP and follow the device specific instructions! Don't assume it's like another device. You'll likely end up with an expensive paperweight if you continue down that road...

Most mistakes can be fixed through fastboot but not all.

Just want to help, be careful ;)
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Asti92:
What commands should I exactly run on terminal while my phone is in the fastboot mode to install the stock ROM? Can somebody help me with that? I'm sorry but I'm a total newbie!

I've read the flashfile.xml that you suggested [MENTION=7591360]htsmi[/MENTION] but I don't understand much from it nor know what should I do next with it.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] htsmi:
Yeah it looks like it is refusing to boot anything, even from fastboot, due to the corrupted boot partition

Note: installing TWRP is not going to be successful until you get your boot partition back to normal. And I would only boot into TWRP using `fastboot boot twrp.img` – replace twrp.img with the file you downloaded from the TWRP payton page – because the installed version will be overwritten when you install a custom ROM.

It looks like your is the 'TMOPL' variant which I don't see in the lolinet site. One way around that is to use Lenovo Moto Smart Assistant on a Windows machine to download and install the original firmware. Unfortunately it now makes you sign in with your Lenovo account to use the software. I don't remember the exact name of the operation in there but it's something like "system recovery". It will automatically download and install the proper firmware in fastboot mode so you don't have to worry about choosing the right one.

Let me know if you're at least able to boot back into stock after that. Then I'll go over steps for TWRP in order to backup important partitions before you install LineageOS if you need them.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Asti92:
Hi!

I used Lenovo Smart Assistant - it connects to my device and reads my phone model, but when I try to go through recovery, it shows a message that some key data is missing and the installation can't proceed.

Lovely! This is my second device, the first had a clicky feel on the bottom of the screen where is slides into the chin. That didnt really bother me, but it would also drain battery overnight when not used (from 100 to 78) the next morning. Returned it to bestbuy (got charged $45) and repurchased (yes i am not a hater, i like the phone) but this one creaks loudly from the screen (not hinge). Anyone having similar issues?
[Motorola Razr 5G Guides, News, & Discussion] LormaD:
oh great.... I am getting mine tomorrow. I purchased from B&H and I got an extended warranty warranty for 2 more years through SquareTrade at time of purchase. The product is shipping from the US to me (in Canada), and the last thing I want to put up with is "this" kind of "issues". Oh jesus, let's hope and pray FedEx delivers a creak free unit.

As for battery issues, you might want to check out what is draining and using up your battery. You can also get some None_root apps to help "Sleep" apps that are sucking power while in standby mode.

Cheers,
[Motorola Razr 5G Guides, News, & Discussion] tessorodesoto:
Crossing fingers for you. My second came from B&H. Will be giving them a call tomorrow for options, most likely will end up keeping it like this and hope for a year of trouble free foldings The one that drained battery, it was also right off the box, i do not install any app until i make sure battery issues arent app related. And i also disabled 5g which made the phone heat up quiet a lot

QC seems to leave a lot to be desired, they put a plastic on the external sceeen that came poorly applied in both lol Got to love the razr, i am all about design, so i can gladly put up with some OCD inducing issues, but not pleased with the overall experience, not at $1200 (although high end phones are getting progressively more expensive, look what apple is doing, less for more, a 64GB iphone 12 is $830 plus the charger, it ends up close to $900, i hope ppl realize demand more for their $. Im definitely NOT getting and iphone again)
[Motorola Razr 5G Guides, News, & Discussion] cornkracker:
The first unit I got had a consistently loud creaky hinge too and there was some friction while opening so I got a replacement and to my surprise it's absolutely quiet and smooth!! So now I consider it not normal for a hinge that makes any noise.
[Motorola Razr 5G Guides, News, & Discussion] LormaD:
Got my phone today

Well, it finally arrived after FedEx messed up the delivery date that was scheduled for last Friday.

I got distracted by the fact that my phone shipped without a screen protector or "Motorola Black" screen shield. The phone shipped folded, and the box looked unopened (the security decals looked super clean unaltered) and there was zero finger prints on the phone nor the display (it's a real finger print magnet like all my other phones lol).

Thankfully, the phone opens and closes like a well oiled hydraulic mechanism that was built by NASA with 0.01% tolerance.
[Motorola Razr 5G Guides, News, & Discussion] tessorodesoto:
Great! Yeah the ones with an internal screen film and unfolded were review units. Others come with a poorly applied plastic on the external screen, and come folded. My creaky razr also offers some resistance as mentioned above, the hinge would not creak, but rather the screen when being folded, i can feel it by touching the outter screen and back. It had to do with the folding trays rather than the hinge itself. Going back for a replacement.
[Motorola Razr 5G Guides, News, & Discussion] LormaD:
Damn, I feel for you bro... are you in New York, or are you shipping it back and forth. Does B&H cover the shipping fees?
[Motorola Razr 5G Guides, News, & Discussion] mdmogren:
I had the 2019/early 2020 version of this phone, it creaked. The 5G version I have now creaks too. Both from day 1. Moto says it's "normal."
[Motorola Razr 5G Guides, News, & Discussion] LormaD:
Well, I can report that mine is like I mentioned above, it folds and opens like a well oiled mechanism. I have had it since Monday of this week. I'm hoping that I am the norm and not the exception.

But I'm getting the feeling that this phone will be pretty scarce as far as distribution and total sales.
[Motorola Razr 5G Guides, News, & Discussion] sanyokt4j:
I've had mine for 4 days now, it emits a single squeak when closing if I use the inner screen for a bit, and makes a click when opening but no creaks that I've noticed.
[Motorola Razr 5G Guides, News, & Discussion] ahalol:
I think if you leave the phone opened for a long time, the creak will disappear. Mine 1st gen razr is like that
[Motorola Razr 5G Guides, News, & Discussion] cellsafemode:
I've had mine since release day. No squeaks or creaks. Just a smooth sound whenever I flip my wrist to open. But even slower opens don't have any noises. And I've been to the beach a few times where I've had sand get in the hinges... Little bit of blowing on the hinge and what little bit of grit is left doesn't seem to be a match for the steel gears after a couple days. Back to being like new.

Sucks you got a squeaker but I would be willing to bet it is in the minority.
[Motorola Razr 5G Guides, News, & Discussion] Yoni160:
No such issues with my Razr, smooth and quiet, although I find the grip to be a bit tricky with one hand, I wish they would had added two tiny grip points on the top sides, to be able to use the weight of the lower half to extend the screen without the risk of dropping the phone.
[Motorola Razr 5G Guides, News, & Discussion] Nik_Ind:
No such issues with mine, either. Was gifted this phone on my B'day, and I really wasn't planning on buying one, but I intend to keep it for a bit. It's been a decent experience overall.
