Hi Guyz. I have tried to unlock my MobiIot MP4 device with the bypass utility.

The device is a POS device

I only get this output.(Attached file)

Does anyone know what i am doing wrong?

Device

=====

Model: MobiWire MobiPrint4

Processor: MTK MT6580

Android Version: 8.1.0

My pc

=====

OS: linux 21.04 x64

Python: 3.9.5
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Warlockguitarman:
The bypass utility doesn't unlock, mtkclient does
[Miscellaneous Android Development] donnie2002:
Hi. Thank you for the replay. Because the device is running android 8, mtkclient doesn't work.

Do you know what else I can try. I am able to unlock the bootloader and flash a magisk patched boot.img

Then I want to remove the orange state warning because I can´t lock the bootloader again.

As far as i know the only way to remove the Orange state warning is to remove the message from the lk.img

The problem is every time I change something from the lk.img the device doesn't boot.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Warlockguitarman:
I can't remember off the top of my head where the instructions are for removing the orange warning screen, I'll find the tutorial that's posted in my group and share it to ya. But it's for android 10 i can't confirm it works for 8
[Miscellaneous Android Development] luridphantom:
didn't hovatek have some tutorial about hex editing the lk or some partition like that?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Warlockguitarman:
I've been working with the development team from hovatek. They have tons of awesome write-ups. If you look at the mtkclient write up you'll see them give me a shout out giving me credit for my help on the grunt work and testing, when I unlocked the bootloader on the k models and stylo 6 back in June we started working together soon after in July. https://forum.hovatek.com/thread-31664.html that's the link to the hovatek site to do that, but I haven't tested it myself, as I sorta like that screen, it proves you got an unlocked bootloader

I plugged in my phone and nothing is happening.

How to run it?

Even with 30+ years online I'll never understand people like you. Who waste effort, goodwill and everyone's time by typing out a response that is nothing more than a half assed way to say, Linux...no wait, I meant:

"I'm smarter than you and far too busy to waste my time copy pasting a link for plebs who don't know the difference between two things on an obscure topic I've wasted way too much of my time becoming familiar with. I will however take the time to let you know I know the answer and I hope you feel bad because I'm not telling you. Now run along and search more, no information here, only experts talking to ourselves, oh and Linux "

just don't ****ing say anything at all if your not bothering to answer something or be helpful. Not only do I now know you exist because of this comment, I don't like you.

Hello,

Thank you very much for doing God works!

Can you add support for Helio G96 or MTK6781.

My device is Poco M4 Pro 4G.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] alecxs:
@erktheerk my post is surely still more useful than your completely off-topic opinion. I pointed out direction and encouraged user to self-learn basics first.

I am not going to make your homework. There is a reason for not giving proper advise to noobs. If you don't understand the instructions given, don't do it!

Feel free to waste your time guiding noobs how to not use dangerous expert tools...

I am not arguing further ot why we don't give basic instructions in this thread such how to install drivers

does anyone have a solution for this
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Rnrl27:
Did you fix it?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] NawtYeal:
I might be late, but could you do one for redmi k30 ultra too (which uses MTK6889Z). Here's the bootrom attached(I hope I'm doing it right) by using the test mode. Thank you very much!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] DoctorSubtilis:
where can I find the code (such as mtk6785t)?

I have a morotola moto e6 plus, with mtk processor.

EDIT

found: MT6762

It will work with your code?

according to #9 message it could work, couldn't it?

I tried to work in a vm with fireiso-2.0.0-amd64 (the only solution, because mastering as usb-live is not possible), but I don't know how proceed. I have created a main.py file (with you code), and get is executable. But I get an error message when I try to execute it.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] PTechz:
Preloader:

Hold Power button for 8-10 seconds, to exit from preloader mode. It worked for me, on Redmi 9Activ (Cattail).

BROM:

To exit from BROM Mode, disconnect & reconnect the battery or wait for battery to (0%).

I tested these both, thanks!

[Miscellaneous Android Development] painterKDM:
I installed and used correctly and it worked on Oukitel with MT6785U ,so was happy.Has the "bootrom.bin" file generated and put in MTK BYPASS folder of any use in future? Do/can you use it with SP Flashtools for future flashing?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] citrogen:
Everything looks like its going well until it gets to "Disabling protection" and what comes next after a couple of seconds is "Payload did not reply".

I'm running on MT6580... Please, is there any fix
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ko_hi:
Hey @k4y0z

Sorry to ping you like this.

I'm just having a concern.

So i have a OnePlus Nord CE 2 5G which did work with this bypass method (on initial version) A.09 (Android 11) after a failed update i was forced to use twrp to get back to A11 and after this i get DeviceClass - [LIB] couldn't get device configuration

Can it be that OnePlus changed something or has something gone corrupt from my side? Or is it that the preloader and loaders been patched?

I forgot to mention the soc is [mt6877]

And it worked on initial version to bypass auth but seems to stopped working

Edit again seems like the tool i used did infact have mt6877 = 0x959

But still it seems like they patched something?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] AdityaJagwani:
I have a device with mt6877t using the same payload. Same thing happened to me. I think there is some sort of wait lock after oem update/flash. Is it working for you now?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ko_hi:
I don't think there is, i can't try it either since I'm on vacation :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] AdityaJagwani:
I just bought a realme 9 pro plus, can't unlock bootloader on this device. Was able to bypass daa using mtk client before recent ota update...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] hexpwn:
I'm interested in learning more about how the exploit works.

I've taken a peek at the code and already have no idea why certain bytes are being sent during the handshake. I imagine this was a reversing effort of "SP Flash Tool".

Is there any resource I could use to learn more about this exploit and MediaTek serial communication in general?

Thank you

[Miscellaneous Android Development] madhurajkumar:
Hey which OTA was that? Also when you were able to bypass daa, did you try unlocking bl then?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] madhurajkumar:
Hey which OTA was that? Also when you were able to bypass daa did you try unlocking bootloader?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ko_hi:
If you mean on Nord CE 2 5G it only works on A.09
[Miscellaneous Android Development] AdityaJagwani:
For realme 9 pro plus, it must have been a.12, with August patch. My phone directly updated to a.13, I took it to service center to downgrade. They were unable to downgrade it below a.12, phone was behaving the same way as it was behaving connecting to mtkclient when they were trying to flash it. The phone went into recovery without being recognised even by official service center flash tool.

Before update, I tried the usual method to unlock bootloader secfg partition but mtkclient reported already unlocked or unsupported device. I found some info on xda and tried to manually patch secfg but it did nothing.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] AdityaJagwani:
I may be wrong, please do your research first. But it seems there is some command you may need to send in fastboot to disable dm-verity.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] madhurajkumar:
Thanks for the detailed reply. Also it's weird that the phone wasn't even being recognised by their official flash tool. That's some realme pro plus max level protection 😂

Also, I did try to bypass DAA with new Android 13 beta but I get handshake failed...etc. in loop.

One more weird thing is that even this beta (with locked bootloader of course) fails safetynet.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] stevedpl7:
Hi all

Quick question from me. Is it possible to change the settings for the accelerometer in terms of sensitivity or time delay?? The reason i ask is that when using opera when i turn the phone to veiw it 'widescreen' the picture takes a good 8-10 seconds to flip change. Often i get bored of waiting so turn the phone ninety degrees again but as soon as i turn the handset portrait again the screen changes to landscape - quite annoying. I guess this may be down to slow response within the opera software??

any help would be much appreciated

Steve
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] drewX2:
I know this is an old thread, but I have the same problem with Opera and was not able to find a post regarding it. Anyone find a way to fix this speed?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] eranyanay:
Good post!! Please help

its a good question sitting on my mind for a few days...

I have another question about rotating..

is it possible to define that the window of sms will be automaticly turn to be on widescreen and locked?

So i can write sms only on wide screen without trying to make the screen rotate..
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Mandragore:
Don't know what you mean by locking the sms windows, but have a look at Gyrator for all your rotating needs :cool:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] eranyanay:
what i meant was...

that i hate writing in portrait mode (regular) because i have big fingers..

and since i dont like waiting minute or two till it rotates my screen...

It would be nice to have a window of sms and mail to be auto rotated to widescreen with no option to be on portrait mode.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] upm15:
I know what you meant and I also facing that problem too. I only need the landscape view when in SMS.

I did try on Gsen but don't know how to make it work. Maybe I should give a try to Gyrator.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] eranyanay:
Gsen is very simple

You just open the gsen config.

there you can define whatever you like.

better you just visit the thread of this app, its sticky..

there you can find all the explainations you need..
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] marekaq:
I have a solution for you, just was searching something similar and found this Gsen application. The BEST gsen for diamond Gsensor Utility (Flip_it) with landscape manila support, ThanX WildBerry Team

LINK FLIP IT

You can decide what application and how (0, 90, 180 or 270°)

I suggest you to install it

go to option:

1) Click on "add new application"

2) write tmail.exe

3) select 90° and 270°

and your sms will open only in landscape mode

bye bye
[Moto G Android Development] maau1985:
Hi, I am new here and I wanted some assistnce to get my old Moto G working. Its stuck in boot loop. When I power it on, it is looping on the Moto screen. I tried flashing it seeing some old threads here and was getting remote failure. I also tried custom recovery but it was failing. I can see Motorola AD Interface on the PC and I have installed all drivers as well. Whatever i try just fails with the same message. "FAILED (remote failure)"

I also a saw thread which talked about the PC to show QLoader9008 in device manager but that also doesnt show in my device manager. I can just see Motorola ADB Interface.

Anything we can do to fix it. I'd really want it to get back to life if its possible.

Thank You for the help in advance.

[General Questions and Answers] pacaveli420:
I was about to post a question about this, but I just figured this out myself. My phone recently updated to Android 11. I have an SD-Card which has music on it - along with a lot of album art. Since the update, all these album art photos have been cluttering up my gallery. Every time I add a .nomedia file in here (which also was there before the update), it seems to get automatically deleted (no, not hidden). I tried copying a .nomedia file from elsewhere on the phone. I even tried popping out the SD-Card and adding the file via PC. As soon as Android touches it, it deletes the file again.

So, here is the issue. With Android 11, it is creating some default folders (I wish it wouldn't clutter up things with these empty folders that I never need or use). Those default folders include: Music, Pictures, Movies. These are created at the top level on the SD-Card and on internal storage. So, if you are also using one of those folders for something, it's going to auto delete the .nomedia file. In my case, I just moved my music into a Musics folder instead(and ensured it has a .nomedia file, of course.

Hopefully this will save someone else from wasting their time trying to figure out why this is happening!
[General Questions and Answers] android1977:
This makes no sense, please explain in more detail.
[General Questions and Answers] pacaveli420:
If you're storing your music files in any of the default folders, Android is going to auto delete your .nomedia file if you try to put one there. Ergo, the solution is you need to store your music in a folder named something else.

[General Questions and Answers] arjo656:
hello, i just get Android 11 on my MI A3, and those folders ( music, pictures, movies )appears on my sd card, they are useless for me, is there a way to delete them?

before Android 11, i didn't have this problem because i choosed " use sd as external support " instead of "use sd as extended memory" when inserting the sd card, but now even if i make the same choice, the folders are there and i can't delete them.
[General Questions and Answers] WiggleCat:
Sort of off topic but not really:

How do I stop it from creating these default folders? It's extremely annoying. I don't have my SD card structured that way and never have. I've deleted the default music, movies, etc folders numerous times now as they just clutter up the root directory and they keep reappearing. Is there a solution to this?
[General Questions and Answers] Bork Bork:
This seems to be a part of Android 11s default folder structure which no one ever bothered to do something about. I wouldn't be surprised if it's there for "security reasons" as well as a communist one. As in you only have the option to use these "secure" folders or else it won't show up in your apps at all.

This might be a way for Google to slowly faze out SDCards entirely while only giving you the option to use said folders for your "private" stuff akin to how IOS (kinda) works. In other words, they are doing it on purpose and no one ever bothered to read the fine print.

Obviously private music and other media collections is the root (see what I did there) cause of the problem. They don't want you to have those at all, And want you to use streaming services instead (tinfoil hat). Which is probably what these folders will probably end up being used for.

Netflix and Spotify allow you to store music on your device, but it's encrypted and will probably end up there at some point in Androids lifecycle. Obviously these files don't need .nomedia since the files are encrypted and will only show up in said app either way which makes the above meaningless.

Most of this is speculation obviously, but we've slowly been moving towards this trend if you look at how System apps were split into app and priv-app and so on. At some point in time only certain apps that has had the blessing of Google will be allowed to read anything off your storage. This happened with Chrome not to long ago where they blocked side-loaded extensions from running.

You will slowly see Android turning into IOS because they (Google) and big-tech in general wants 100% control of what you can and can't do. And everything based on AOSP or LOS is gonna follow suit because no one gives a flying fudge because that's too bothersome. The fragmentation of custom builds based on LOS/AOSP in general already shows that this has always been the case for the last 10 years. Linux in general is no different either as can be seen with wokeism. Except that was through decimation via woke people and not big-tech.
[General Questions and Answers] Le Tibbers:
I was going crazy thinking this issue was specific to my samsung's stock rom. I started searching about this once I noticed it on LOS 18. Glad I'm not alone :D

I tend to be a little OCD about my folder structures but at this point I don't mind making a separate folder to avoid album arts in my gallery.
