I had converted my Mi A2 into 6x but i forgot to delete Firmware Update folder. Now i'm using Pixel Experience Rom based on 6X.

Is it possible to go back Mi A2? (Without Opening Phone Backpart
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] KevMetal:
open fastboot :

fastboot getvar all

there will be a bunch of info ...if the ARB number is higher than 4 the answer is NO

fyi: you can enter edl from fastboot or twrp custom recovery if your phone is in working order .. shorting the pins ( test point) by opening phone physically only becomes necessary if your phone is bricked

open fastboot :

fastboot oem edl

***something to consider is you can't just flash an android 1 rom ...you need to download the repartition script to repartition your partition layout or all attempts will fail

Hi,

Received a small update for Galaxy watch active 2 LTE SM-R825F, for Brazilian region, ZTO CSC.

Changelog - https://doc.samsungmobile.com/SM-R825F/ZTO/doc.htmlView attachment 5117483
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] veerusayz1:
I am not sure I am not receiving a single update. My watch is still at Tizen version of 4.0.0.7. And One UI version is at 1.5. I am from India.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] rohit83:
I'm in India too, but I have installed Brazilian firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] veerusayz1:
Could you please let me know if there is a tutorial which explains me to install the Brazilian version of the firmware
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] thibaly:
Hey !

Don't worry, i'm from France, and still stuck at 4.0.0.7...

It's like Samsung is very slow to push update ...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Nastrahl:
Strange, I've got the update to version 5.5 since the 02/10
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Leon:
Same. I got it before few weeks I even forgot :D
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] rohit83:
Yes, you'll have to follow 2 different tutorials if you have a Non-Samsung phone & if you have a Samsung phone, then just follow the first tutorial below & have fun.

In case of a Non-Samsung phone, make sure to install the bp.tpk app on the 4.0.7 itself, i.e. when you flash the Brazilian firmware & before upgrading from here, so you don't have to downgrade to install it.

Link to Brazilian firmware - https://drive.google.com/folderview?...IGMXFCQUzsBt7q

You need to flash this as the firmware file, instead of the one listed in CSC change OP below, use combination firmware from the tutorial.

SM-R825F CSC change tutorial - https://xdaforums.com/smartwatch/galaxy-watch/sm-r825f-csc-change-tutorial-t4061905

Credits to [MENTION=4288451]Mithos11[/MENTION] for Tutorial & [MENTION=8771555]amitdon[/MENTION] for Brazilian firmware.

You should now get 3 OTA updates after flashing this.

I've the Watch active 2 LTE XEF (SM-R825F).

I've got the Bluetooth version, SM-R820 R820XXU1CTI4

[Samsung Galaxy Watch] dwallersv:
While I could jump through these hoops no problem, it's too "Rube Goldberg" for me. I have the LTE GW2, USA, updated to the latest 5.5 release.

I got BP functionality by joining the UCSF Blood Pressure study "My BP Lab".

Don't do this just to get BP reading capability on your watch. There is some serious participation requirements, and it will interrupt your day 3 times to take your BP as scheduled, and then answer a bunch of questions on the phone companion app. However, you can then check your BP any time, so you will have the feature.

For me, the additional data I get as part of the study was more than worth it. The main point of the study is to correlate stress and BP, so there are also optional exercises that can be performed during each check in to see how they affect BP. Participation is 3 weeks from the time you sign up, the study is on-going.

I was gonna snap at your for saying go use a search, but since you were sorta polite I edited my post. I did a search beforehand. I didn't come across anyone that had the original HTC diamond today(clock) and weather working on the Tilt without mods and or creating their own. I just wanted to know if there was a direct port of that one. Not copy of it. Mind you, I may have missed a post on it, there are ALOT of posts.
[Sony Xperia 1 II Questions & Answers] MJosephJ:
I'm in US and want to buy a X1 ii now. But I do have some questions:

1. I know the US version does not support 5G. But is it the carrier issue or the US version lacks some hardware? If I use the US version in Hong Kong or Taiwan, will it work on 5G or should I flash some ROM to enable it? (in other words, are the hardwares all the same in different versions?)

2. The US version only has one SIM while I prefer a dual SIM version. So if I managed to get a HK version or EU version, can I use it in US without too much trouble? Will the other versions have 5G in US?

Thanks!
[Sony Xperia 1 II Questions & Answers] nebula9:
1. The US model is the same as the single SIM EU model. It works with 5G when flashed with the correct FW.

2. You can only use it with US carriers with US FW, since you need that to enable VoLTE provisioning on US carriers which will soon drop 3G in favor of VoLTE only. And US FW doesn't support dual SIM, though it can be flashed on a dual SIM model.
[Sony Xperia 1 II Questions & Answers] MJosephJ:
Thanks! According to your answer, if I'm going to stay in US for a while, a US version with US firmware is necessary to enjoy VoLTE (but never 5G in US). And I could flash it with, say Asian firmware, to use 5G in other regions than US. The dual SIM version, although not sold in US, can be used in the same way as mentioned here. Am I right?
[Sony Xperia 1 II Questions & Answers] nebula9:
Yes, though when running the US firmware it will ignore a second SIM.

[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Questions & Answers] burrzoo:
This does seem odd to me that Samsung hasn't even given us September let alone October firmware/Security Patches.

I wonder if this issue happened with the OG Fold? Like Samsung Tablets, maybe Samsung was thinking that they wouldn't sell that many Z Fold2's and we'd be the last to receive any updates.

Has anyone seen any sales stats on the Z Fold2 yet?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Questions & Answers] desantim:
This while release gives me a bad taste in my mouth the more it sinks in. A $2000 phone with no case included, no headphones, no special anything. Nothing made this purchase special. Then, the software we are all using hasn't had an update for 2+ months.

Hope you’re doing well. So I bought Samsung active 2 around a month back, and I am trying to install an YouTube app which will play videos. Surprisingly, I didn’t find any app in Samsung store. I tried to browse the videos through Samsung internet but only half of the videos will play and remaining videos will not play. I am just wondering how you are guys playing YouTube on your watch.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Bi0haZarD:
Download and use samsung internet browser from watch or Galaxy wear. You can use youtube through the browser.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Veerab:
Not sure if I’m only facing this issue. On Samsung internet I can only play videos from home page. And I can’t play videos from the search. May I know if it’s working for you?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Bi0haZarD:
My observation was that videos over 30mins tend to either load slow or not start at all, regardless of video quality but the ones under 30mins start instantly. Quality for the density and the size given of the Super AMOLED (360 x 360) display is crisp clear and the amoled colors shine really nice with the *seriously deep pitch black color* :D

Perfect for short videos while *on the go* :good:

Edit: i will check and update regarding playing videos from search, can' t remember atm.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Dark_Eyes_:
Hi everyone,

I've noticed recently that flip to shhh will only work if the phone is NOT on a perfectly level surface. If I use it on my desk for example, it won't work (no vibration to indicate it has turned on). If I slightly tilt the phone, flip to shhh kicks in. Letting go of the phone disables it again.

Anyone else having this issue?

Sorry to say, no issues here. I've tried it on multiple surfaces and it always shhh-es. I have the P4 not the XL but I assume it should be identical operations.

I was wondering... What kind of symptoms do you get when your battery is starting to die? I'm getting some crazy battery drain problems. First I've got a good 50% charge. I make a 10 min call and the phone restarts with the battery at 0%. No warnings or anything. I've got a couple new batteries coming by mail. I was just wondering if maybe I have some other problem with my phone. Thanks in advance.

Hi, just check my post at: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=2508856&postcount=5

You can download and use PowerDetect from there. charge your battery to 100% and run the program. It will give the % of battery and the voltage. it logs the results to a text document. While running, your wizard will turn off/restart. after that, charge again to see the test results. If you see the voltage is running low very quickly, then your battery will be dead.

just buy an new battery and you'll be fine;)

good luck!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] chetmichaels:
battery would start fully charged at 100%

used it for maybe 10 min? and went down to probably 60%

a moment later it's down to 40%...

try to wrap up your stuff and the 20% warning comes on

that's the battery dying. i bought a new one off of amazon and now it tends to go down slowly. i can use it off and on the whole day and it ends up 50-60%, pretty close to how it was when it was new

[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] ivan.lxc.10:
Today my cell phone got stuck on the android one logo.

I was using the cell phone when it suddenly fired, so I forced a restart with the power button and from that moment on it never turned on again.

I have the bootloader unlocked and I was running the Paranoid Quartz 4 rom about 3 months ago without any problem.

The first thing I did was try to enter recovery mode (twrp) and it was not possible. The only thing I can do with the cell phone is enter fastboot mode. So I decided to flash the stock rom using MiFlash (I tried with android 9 and android 10), but the error is always the same: "remote: Error flashing partition: Write Protected".

I have been trying to find a solution for several hours, I watched a lot of videos, I read a lot of threads, but there is no case: no solution has worked so far.

In the MiA2 forums the only thread I found is the following:

https://xdaforums.com/mi-a2/help/help-xiaomi-mi-a2-write-protected-t4153629

I followed all the steps you left in the comments but nothing worked.

I wanted to know if this is happening to anyone else, and if anyone can try to help me fix it.

Thank you very much, I appreciate any kind of help.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] KevMetal:
try running :

fastboot flashing unlock_critical

*if that doesn't work then try to run

fastboot getvar all

***post the output here so we can see what's going on

have you checked the basics ? are you CERTAIN you didn't lock bootloader ..

when you went back to stock from the custom rom did you remember to go into dev settings afterwards & to check that oem unlock and adb debug were toggled to on position

lastly if trying to restore stock using miflash try it in edl mode :

fastboot oem edl

then flash latest stock in miflash

the write protect error sounds strange to me .. what happens while trying to enter twrp ? what error do you get ? did you hold power and volume up until entering recovery ..are you sure you don't have ARB triggered ?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] ivan.lxc.10:
Thanks for the reply.

This is the output when i put "fastboot getvar all"

And when I put fastboot flashing unlock_critical

FAILED (remote: Device already : unlocked!)

finished. total time: 0.004s

The problem is that I never thought to go back to the stock rom, I am trying to do it because my cell is dead. But the usb debugging was activated (I remember, whenever I connected the cell phone to the car, the notification would appear).

I already tried flashing the stock rom in EDL. I tried different versions but they all end in the same error. At this moment I am again downloading the last stable that they uploaded (V11.0.14.0.QDIMIXM) to try, but without hope hahaha

Finally, it doesn't let me enter TWRP, the only way is with a boot from fastboot (because flashing does not allow me, just like the roms). When I boot the twrp it starts up but gets stuck at the boot logo, it never enters recovery. And I don't know what you mean by "ARB triggered"

This MiA2 literally looks like a stone, I don't know what else to do. In a forum they told me that I have to have an "authorized EDL account" or contact one in order to unbrick the terminal.

Thanks again for the reply, I appreciate it.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] KevMetal:
it will work by flashing the stock rom in edl

1. install Qualcomm 9008 drivers

2. run : fastboot oem edl

3.open miflash and refresh and flash rom

make sure you are using THE LATEST miflash ( use it to install drivers)

you can also try just changing to your other slot ...stock android 1 might still be there :

fastboot set_active b

or if you are b just put :

fastboot set_active a

[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] ivan.lxc.10:
Yes, every time I try to flash (so far without success) I try in fastboot mode and in EDL mode. Each mode has a different error: in fastboot mode the error is "remote: Error flashing partition: Write Protected". In EDL mode the error is: "ACK count don't match!".
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] KevMetal:
ACK count doesn't match error is because you didn't listen to me ..USE THE LATEST BETA MI FLASH ... uninstall old ones first ... send a photo to show you are using latest

---------- Post added at 11:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:33 PM ----------

I looked at the logs.. you also seem to be using patched programmer files ..STOP ..use only the stock rom ..without copying or replacing files ...

send me a summary of exactly which version of miflash you are using ..which stock rom and explain what you are trying to do correctly
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] ivan.lxc.10:
Sorry but you said to use the latest version of my flash .. not the BETA of my flash.

Anyway I just downloaded the beta version of miflash and it didn't work either, I'm starting to go crazy lol

What do you mean by "patched programmer files"? I am using the latest fastboot rom from 09/28/2020, I did not touch or replace anything (neither now nor in the previous times I tried to flash)

Now the step by step is as follows:

I am using the beta version of my flash that I downloaded from here https://drive.google.com/file/d/12Gy2RP1eWBBKS6R2S2G9qzt-UQRIxpAM/view

and the fastboot rom I downloaded it from here https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/archive/miui/jasmine/

(from the xiaomi page the links for the roms do not work)

So what I do is:

- Open cmd and MiFlash

- I put in MiFlash the option "clean all"

- I select the path where the rom is located (I have it in c: \ rom)

- fastboot oem edl

- refresh and flash in MiFlash
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] KevMetal:
well if that the case you need to consider a hardware failure...

please try the command to change slots and send me a photo of what is says in fastboot

also when you try to edl flash did you check that your phone appears as qualcomm 9008 device in device manager * just to make sure your 9008 drivers were installed correctly.

anyway try another thing .... download the fastboot version aosip-derp from their official page ...then flash all the image files one by one from fastboot ..but before starting first do :

fastboot -w

send me photo of what happens
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] ivan.lxc.10:
I spoke with a person from the xiaomi forum and checking the log he told me that apparently the device has memory damaged, so it could not be solved with the firmware flashing. After that, he consulted another person and gave him the same diagnosis: the memory is damaged so it does not allow me to write in various sectors. So effectively, my problem is hardware.

I will send it to the technical service and then I will make an update on this thread to tell my experience.

Hi there

having a similar issue with regards to flashing a rom over to an Asus Zenfone 5 ZC600KL X017DA has a Qualcomm Chipset 630

the issue i have is the phone is stuck on Asus logo and all i can get from the device using the power and volume Keys is CSC fastboot mode no recovery or anything

downloaded a couple firmwares details are

Asus_Zenfone_5_Lite_ZC600KL_630_14.0400_1808.057_20180903_CMD

And

[firmware27]CSC__ZC600KL(630)_14.0400.1801.006_20191023_Phone_PtoN

both firmwares in fastboot mode will fail and one thing to note is write protected keeps appearing and the interesting thing is the first firmware i listed seems to not do very much it will show several lines and then fail but the second firmware had more activity it seemed to be pushing something but then several points it kept saying write protected

i am to assume the device bootloader is locked

i keep seeing everywhere to try unlock bootloader i need to be able to disable the OEM within the phone settings ( obviously i cannot due to it not booting ) as well as debugging mode being enabled again i cant enable

i have a third firmware that is meant to be used with QPTS / Qfil and that throws up a couple of errors also

really could use some help with this it would be super appreciated and would owe an virtual beer haha

any solutions
