[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Rstment ^m^:
You're on to something when it comes to brightness... Newer panels that are being used in the latest Chinese devices all have very high sustained brightness. Which is nice and all but no1 had considered how that will play in combination with the newest chips,

If you compare F2 and F3 the earlier model only had sustained brightness of 500cd/m2 whereas the newer model can sustain 900cd/m2 of brightness - that's a huge difference

Then what about chips? Both snapdragon 888 and 870 are dumpster fires ( Even the dimensity chips ) , while the performance gain is insane compared to last gen so is the heat output... And sadly even the gaming devices with cooling fans struggle to keep the chips from throttling. Take black magic 6 pro for a shameless example (snap 888), it reaches upwards of 55C on the phone body itself during benchmarking with no signs or intention for throttling down to save your hands- that itself should be illegal but no1 ****ing cares since how else are they gonna reach those benchmark numbers.... ( 54C can cause full thickness burns in a matter of 30 seconds or so )

I don't have poco f3 to check but from looking at stress tests on YouTube you can see that they are much more conservative when it comes to heat. It reaches only 42C during benchmarking then starts to throttle down and basically hovers around that temp 42C-44C.

The chips are already insanely good when it comes to performance but the cooling is pacing behind... So yeah it's pretty normal that your device is getting hot - so is every other device on the flagship market rn. Most you can do to solve that would be in this order > Get a peltier cooling device like blackshark fun cooler pro > Lower the brightness to what's usable for you and hope it's enough to somewhat delay the throttling > The last one would be messing with the phone itself like downclocking it or lowering the voltage. It's a cat and mouse game , the throttling will come eventually , the only way out I see would be the first option or the last one if you're capable enough to mess with that and are lucky enough to get a chip that undervolts nicely.

Is there any way to restore the stock recovery.img?

When I boot to recovery, I get "no command" with Android guy on his back. How can I fix this?
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] EngineerMind:
Is your bootloader unlocked?
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] clutterking:
Yes
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] EngineerMind:
When I unzip the google image for the Pixel 4a Android 10, it has the file "bootloader-sunfish-s5-0.2-6281315.img" in it.

Maybe you can download the official image from google for the version of android you have and then put your phone into fastboot mode (not recovery) and flash the bootloader image from your google image to get it working.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] a1291762:
That is the standard recovery tho.

What were you expecting exactly?
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] clutterking:
I'd like to boot into recovery mode so that I can sideload the OTA.

I tried "fastboot flash bootloader fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-sunfish-s5-0.3-7062598.img". It flashed properly but I still get the "No command" error when I boot into recovery.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] a1291762:
Um... Nothing here about fastboot.

This older guide shows the no command screen too. That's just what the recovery looks like.

GUIDE - Applying a Rescue OTA to a Google Pixel

[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] clutterking:
I only mentioned fastboot because that's what I used to flash the bootloader.

In any case, you're right, Android recovery is just Android on his side with the red exclamation mark. I guess I expected to see some kind of menu, like TWRP.

I do have another problem. While in recovery, adb devices returns my device as unauthorized. I've made sure USB debuging is on and that RSA key is accepted. I can send adb commands while in android, like adb reboot recovery, but I can't issue any while in recovery mode. Any suggestions on to get my device to be authorized in recovery?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bra1niac:
For kicks I tried a GSI ROM on my Jelly 2. It worked well except GSI ROMs don't seem to work well with VZW. So I'm looking to revert to the stock ROM. I have gone through the guide they posted here https://drive.google.com/file/d/1qVlaYucvE44ZJqF1RCHGknEBQWy_Z65m/view and I have the drivers installed and the phone is recognized as "MediaTek PreLoader USB VCOM (Android) (COMx)". Using their flash tool linked from the doc, the tool recognizes the phone on COMx (x depends on which USB port the cable is plugged into) and when I click "Start All" in the tool, in about 3-5 seconds the progress bar fills red to 100% and says "DA" in front of it. Then at about 125s, "DA" changes to "DA ERROR" and that's the end of the process.

Here are some screenshots showing the port in device manager and the flash tool with the "DA ERROR".

I've tried this from different laptops and different cables (the one that came with the phone and a different USB-A to USB-C cable) with no joy. I'm working with their support, but the time difference means communication is slow.

I've tried this with the bootloader locked and unlocked.

The IMEI for the Jelly 2 was recognized as a Jelly Pro, so Unihertz support provided me with an OTA file and instructions for installing it by downloading it to the phone and the using their built in local flash option to install it. They also provided 2 new IMEI numbers that I manually entered after flashing the OTA. This all worked fine, but they note that the IMEIs will revert to their original values after a factory reset. This was done before I flashed the GSI ROM, so I'm mentioning it in case it gives insight into whatever "DA ERROR" means.

Has anyone gone through this process successfully and have any tips?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bra1niac:
Answering my own question, while I could never resolve the DA ERROR running the SP TOOL on a Windows laptop, it worked running the Linux version from a bootable thumb drive on the same laptop. No idea on this one but I'm not going to dig any deeper. I used fireiso-2.0.0 as the bootable Linux thumb drive and downloaded the Linux SP Tool after the system booted up. Ran it with no changes to anything and it just worked.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feanor_twh:
I have a problem similar to yours, I want to restore the original firmware, the Unihertz tool recognizes the device (although it takes a while) but then "DA ERROR".

Could you tell me where you got that tool under Linux that worked?
[Nubia Red Magic 6] auerick:
hey guys, successfully flashed the global rom over my redmagic 6 pro CN version but decided to go back to the CN rom, but when I try to install it via local update it results in a recovery boot loop and the only option is to do a factory reset, but when I do a factory reset, for some reason it goes back to the Global Rom. Any tips on what I need to do? thanks
[Nubia Red Magic 6] bob24260:
Personally what I would do is extract the boot image from the CN rom zip and fastboot flash it after you flash the CN rom via local update. You will have to be bootloader unlocked of course. You can always relock after you've got the CN rom up and running.
[Nubia Red Magic 6] auerick:
I actually tried that but then it get's stuck on the Nubia logo, so something must have gone wrong somewhere, and one odd thing is if I try installing the latest V2.63 CN rom via local update it tells me that the package is not compatible with the phone. At least the Redmagic 5G had the local update option on its recovery. Nothing at all on the Redmagic 6 Pro. Isn't recovery.img included in the payload.bin? doesn't seem to be there when I dumped the payload
[Nubia Red Magic 6] cannon3025:
Hi there, can you describe the whole steps to flash your RM6 pro from CN to global?

Which rom did you use? EU or non-EU?

Thanks for the reply.
[Nubia Red Magic 6] auerick:
I installed both just to see if I cam go back to CN rom once I'm on either Rom

Basically just downloaded the Global ROM file from the Nubia website, put it on my phones root folder, then did a local update, using the system update local update setting
[Nubia Red Magic 6] bob24260:
I believe the recovery is part of the boot image now. I've dumped the payload too and I'll have a quick look and see if it's present. I have all the files for the US, global version. It's 4.1.2 I believe. I'll be happy to help any way I can. I just had a bad experience today... I've had my 6 Pro a week and already the cord has quit working. Not a good sign. I'm starting to regret my purchase.
[Nubia Red Magic 6] bob24260:
I checked and sure enough no recovery image. Pretty sure it's baked into the boot image. Perhaps try the 4.1.2 boot image? That may boot it. Seems like you've rebranded it global version by flashing the global rom. That's a possibility anyways
[Nubia Red Magic 6] auerick:
ok I'll try to play around with it, won't flashing the 4.1.2 boot.img cause a brick?
[Nubia Red Magic 6] bob24260:
Shouldn't cause a brick. If you've already flashed global before there shouldn't be any problem. But to be sure instead of flashing just fastboot boot the image.

Fastboot boot boot.img

This will allow you the luxury of trying it without actually flashing it. If it hangs up simply reboot by holding power.
[Nubia Red Magic 6] auerick:
cool didn't know I could do that, thanks for the tip
[Nubia Red Magic 6] kittyshik:
i tried this and it work but i forgot to wipe ..now i cant save images, files etc. but it doesnt matter.. anyway can you plese tell me how to relock my bootloader? some commands i think? im not familiar with relocking ..only unlocking xD this is my first time relocking bootloader
[Nubia Red Magic 6] auerick:
fastboot flashing lock

though this will prompt another factory reset

Yes.

You can write the imei for the slot2 and keep the imei for slot1 as null/empty.

It will works perfectly on stock MIUI and then you can unlock bootloader using the SIM on slot2.

This was my problem.i went to HTC agent and they said the motherboard has a issue.it may be caused to water drop.and they told it cant be repaired and i shoold replace the motherborad and the MB will cost like hell..

Now i need help of ur guys.

1.) Is there any software to disable the power on/off function?

2.) Or is there any method to automatically press "no" of power off msg when it appears.

Sorry for my bad English :(..pls help me..
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] The Reaper:
you have already started a thread regarding your power button HERE ...bad net manners, contact the mods and ask them to close one...

Anyways, from your post, you cannot go into standby mode because of the faulty power button...

So here's what you do, download Pocket Device Power Manager OR psShutXP and install on the mobile...

With this, you will have the standby option available without having to press the power button...

Hope that helps...

I can't unlock my phone with the Pattern I assigned it. I always use the same Pattern, so I was pretty sure it's not an error. When I draw the pattern, it says "incorrect pattern" and makes me wait 30 seconds before trying again (from the first try).

Luckily, I have access to Samsung's Find my Mobile, I unlocked the device, removed the lock. But every time I restart the device, the bugged lock screen would come back, and I would have to unlock the device again with Find my Mobile.

please note that I can't set a new lock after unlocking the device, it will revert back to no lock after setting a new pattern/pin/password. definitely a bug.

if there is any method to fix this, or to reset Samsung's lock screen app, please let me know!

my device is Samsung Galaxy A8+ in case anyone was curious.
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
I never set a lock on a phone or bios password on PCs... now you know why.

You're lucky it was recoverable... some lockouts are not🤣

Data corruption can trigger this and it's just random luck if it happens or not. Even if rare you can see the implications. You're now very close to being completely locked out as it stands🤣

You can try a clearing the system cache and data from the apk(s) controlling it.

Try a hard reboot.

Factory reset... if that fails it's probably hardware. Or simply keep it unlocked and in your possession at all times which is the best security.
[General Questions and Answers] majdcomp:
I'd like to keep it unlocked, yet as I mentioned, it will spring back again immediately as I restart the phone. It won't be funny to get my phone locked outside my home and not having a pc near to access find my mobile to unlock it 💔

I'm trying to avoid factory reset, too much data to back up and I'm quite lazy to do it 😂

And it seems like there is no way to clear cache/data, as the Samsung's lock screen doesn't appear in storage/apps. (Or it is there with some strange system name?)

[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
Oh my bad, it locks no matter what. That's not good.

Boot menu>clear system cache (don't hit factory reset by accident).

Google for the button sequence to hit for that model. Timing is critical, you might need to try more then once.

That might get it.

Try clearing the Dynamic Lock Screen data.

I would backup all critical data now if you haven't. Do not use Smart Switch to transfer settings if you do factory reset, ha-ha.

Someone here probably has a better solution as I know little about this system.

As always do a Google search, you can probably use solutions from other Samsung models going back a few years.

Erratic and strange behavior can also be a sign of a virus, rootkit etc.

When in doubt, factory reset especially if you can't track down the root cause.

Finding the root cause and correcting it is always preferable to a factory reset but not always possible. If the OS load is older then a year a factory reset be a good plan anyway... nothing like a clean, fresh OS.

Delete your Google account before you factory reset so that doesn't password pester you. I'm told if you reset from settings vs the boot menu that doesn't happen. Not sure haven't tried a factory reset that way.
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
Can you do that on a stock Android that's not rooted?
[General Questions and Answers] sammiev:
You would need to be rooted.
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
I read if you load TWRP you'll lose things like Samsung Pay.

Seems risky at least to me. I like to play with it but don't have a phone to burn.

A factory reset for me at this point is fairly painless ie no data loss and takes under a couple hours.
[General Questions and Answers] :
If it's of any interest here:

On Android the pattern lock data (SHA-encrypted) is kept in a file named gesture.key and stored in the /data/system folder.

If phone's Android is rooted you simply delete that file to bypass the pattern lock. Using ADB you would run command sequence

adb devices
adb shell "rm -f /data/system/gesture.key"

to achieve this.

The phone should be now accessible with no pattern lock applied.
