Please Help!

I did something very stupid today.

Unlocked my RMX2170, got into fastboot.

Tried to flash PBRP as recovery, and some vbmeta.img image as vbmeta of my phone.

Disaster! My phone got stuck in a bootloop of just repeatedly booting into fastboot.

No recovery, nothing.

From there, I installed SHRP using the fasboot flash recovery command, and now I have SHRP.

SHRP, however, cannot flash ANYTHING as a result of an error that it "failed to mount /system_root and /vendor"

The phone can effectively boot into Qualcomm EDL and fastboot.

I've tried countless tools and software to get back to stock. Nothing works. MSM requires a login to function, so it won't work.

Anyone at all, please, can you tell me how to get back to FULL stock?
[Realme 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Codian:
Through sheer trial and error,

Procedure:

1. Downloaded A37 ofp file from www.gsmmafia.com/realme-7-pro-rmx2170-flash-file/ (or mediafire download)

2. Extracted it using bkerler/oppo_decrypt's ofp_qc_extract.py into a folder:

py -3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt
py -3 ofp_qc_extract.py a37_ofp_file.ofp .\extracted

3. Rebooted the phone into fastboot, ready for flashing (Power + Volume Down for me)

5. Ran:

fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot flash vbmeta_system vbmeta_system.img
fastboot flash vbmeta_vendor vbmeta_vendor.img
fastboot flash super super.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img

(keep in mind these .img files came from the extracted ofp's folder!)

6. Rebooted into system using the fastboot menu (START)

7. I'm pretty sure my phone ran A41 before today... so I gave the phone an update from inside Android, that seemed to work fine.

As a bonus, my bootloader seems to have remained unlocked? Nice!

Also interesting: holding volume up does not boot into recovery. This is an issue for another day lads.
[Realme 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Domac5:
Can you explain me step 2? I have bootloped phone and I don't understand how to use oppo decrypt
[Realme 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Codian:
1. Download and install Python on your computer.

2. Press Windows + R, then type cmd, hit enter to access a terminal.

3. Make sure Python works by trying py -3 in the terminal. (Type exit() to exit the Python shell)

4. Download oppo_decrypt's repository zip and extract it in a folder anywhere.

5. Use cd in the terminal to navigate to the extracted folder.

6. Run this command to install the dependencies of oppo_decrypt:

py -3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt

7. You should have already downloaded the ofp file for the phone. If not, get it from here.

8. You need to run the Python script in order to extract the images you need, so, you should copy it to the folder where your ofp file is.

cp ofp_qc_decrypt.py /where/the/ofp/file/is/ofp_qc_decrypt.py

9. Go into the directory with the script and ofp file, and extract it.

py -3 ofp_qc_extract.py the_ofp_file.ofp .\extracted

The extracted images you need, if you were on Android 10, should be in the extracted folder in the terminal's working directory.

Best of luck, although I can't really help you step-by-step for everything, so I suggest you visit r/realme's Discord.

Go to the Discord for more help!
[Realme 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Domac5:
Step 8 not working for me
[Realme 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Domac5:
Do you have original recovery.img file,please send me? I just can't extract it from ofp file, 2 days trying and just can't
[Realme 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Codian:
Sorry, instead of "cp" the command is "copy", my mistake.
[Realme 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Codian:
You can't flash recovery.img. It won't work, I tried. You need to re-flash all of the system partitions like in my post.

I don't have the files anymore, as I did this a while ago. Sorry.
[Realme 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Domac5:
Still doesnt work
[Realme 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Domac5:
I did it, problem was in python3 comand, that one should be typed without number 3 because that doesn't work in windows. Now it's extracting

did you had these problem?
[Moto G Stylus (Moto G Pro) Questions & Answers] Teos_93:
Hi all,

Since the beginning I experienced lags and overall bad performances (my old G7 plus or my gf's redmi note 5 pro do way better).

For those who tried custom ROMs: did you notice a boost on performance compared to stock firmware? It would be the only reason for me to unlock bootloader etc.

Thank you
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] vaizardsparagon:
I was using my phone like normal when it froze on me. I shut down my phone as I usually do when it freezes using the Power off + Vol Down. After turning the phone off, it refused to turn back on again, the light indicator for charging also does not work anymore when plugging in the charger. I did a bit of research and found out that it is possibly bricked. The way they suggested to fix this issue is to flash the phone with the stock rom. So here are the things I've tried:

1. Using SP Flash Tool (not really sure how this one is supposed to work, it is asking me for a "Scatter Loading File" which to my knowledge, isn't part of the ROM file I downloaded from xiaomi.)

2. Booting into EDL mode by shorting the pins and Using the official Mi Flash Tool (This one barely worked for me, it got into the process of flashing but asked me for an authorized Mi Account, after a few hours of research I found out that you can't get one.)

3. Changing the original firehose file with the modified version to bypass the authentication (Still asked me to authenticate)

4. Other Flash Tools (Qualtek, MiracleBox, Qualcomm Flash tool, etc. All failed)

Not really sure what to do at this point, I am unable to launch into fastboot or recovery, phone is completely unresponsive. The only thing that is giving me hope is that the phone is detected in the device manager of my pc as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM3). Is the phone dead or is it just bricked, all answers will be highly appreciated, Thanks in Advance
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] :
Take phone to authorized service center and let them try to fix it. :)
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] LR7875:
Well it is kind of the only possible way because Xiaomi locked down the EDL mode and render a phone truly as useful as a brick, when bricked, unless you sign in with a authorized mi account. Also 99 percent of time the people online claiming that they can fix the device, it is a scam.

However Xiaomi store will probably not fix the phone (it is 3 years old) for the OP (original poster) and try to convince him to move on to new Xiaomi phones because, Xiaomi will earn more...

would a motherboard replacement work?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] LR7875:
1000000 percent this will work because by replacing the motherboard, your corrupt data and chips (fried EMMC flash storage) (and snapped snapdragon) will be replaced.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] chmohit25:
Exactly same thing happened with my Poco F1 on 20th Aug. It comes up as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM3) when connecting to my laptop.

What would be the cost for getting motherboard replaced? I want to be able to use my phone with minimal effect to its state before the issue happened. Want to avoid any resets.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] rom~addict5555:
I'm afraid to say this but i think that your phone was stuck in EDL mode. here in my country the technicians offer remote EDL flash.. no success no payment transaction..

[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] jerrycoffman45:

[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] afaneh92:
model and bootloader version?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] NippleSauce:
This is extremely common - even without modifications - on the whole S21 series. There have been tons and tons of posts here about devices failing after no damage or anything... And, unfortunately, mine is starting to fall into the same boat right now as I generally have to restart it about 5-6 times PER DAY to have it keep working.

Mine has been kept up to date, hasn't been modified, and has been kept under great temperature control without any beefy/non-heat dissipating cases.

So all in all, do exactly what @jerrycoffman45 said and get a warranty repair ASAP! As supposedly (someone else said this in another post), Scamsung is starting to decline some of these device repairs which (I imagine) are primarily due to their own manufacturing mistakes. So get it fixed while you can and hopefully Samsung agrees to help you out. As after running through this issue, I'm never buying another crummy Samsung device ever again lol. I've made a huge mistake getting the S21U...
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] whitehawk66:
I think the tendency to install too many apps - most of which are useless data rapers you probably don't use and making too many tweaks will increase the likelihood of your phone going bonkers. Overcome the urge to do these things.

Do you unlock your bootloader?

Is this your phone model:

Huawei Y5p Android smartphone. Announced May 2020. Features 5.45″ display, MT6762R Helio P22 chipset, 3020 mAh battery, 32 GB storage, 2 GB RAM.

[Huawei Y5 (2017) Questions & Answers] Elitebabystar:
HI,

Not unlock the bootloader yet, waiting to know if there is a stable version of a custom Rom? And then have the GMS finally working, not with a Vmos solution!

That's the right model!

Any help would be grateful!

Thx
[Huawei Y5 (2017) Questions & Answers] LR7875:
Well unlocking bootloader for Huawei phones are basically impossible, especially if you have mediatek, so no one developed custom ROMs for it.

If you (paid someone ) and managed to unlock bootloader, you might want to flash this.

[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] phendrome:
Hello,

I've successfully managed to install OnePlus3T_28_A.86_191104_repack through MsmDownloadTool V4.0.71 where the Status of Communication is "Download Complete".

After this, when the phone boots, the OnePlus logo shows up for a little while – and after that, a black screen. I can only access fastboot – and that's about it. The phone is locked, etcetera, so I can't flash via adb/fastboot. When I try to access recovery mode through the fastboot menu, the screen becomes black too.

Worth mentioning I've also successfully installed through an older version of MSM before this. But same results. The version is the following OnePlus3T_28_A.23_161027 and the MsmDownloadTool V3.0.6.

What are the alternatives? Is it good game? If someone could pinpoint me what to do next would be glorious. The hard-brick guides seem to always point to the MSM way of things.

Thanks in advance!
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] phendrome:
Alright so I've been digging a bit deeper.

Stumbled upon a bunch of different YouTube videos that had similar solutions.

Most of them were squeezing, tapping and doing different motions onto the phone. Like pressing down the screen at different angles with some pressure, etc. Also from the back, the buttons to loosen them, etc. I'm sure I've missed some of the methods mentioned in the video.

However, the squeezing on the screen and the back actually made the phone go past the black OnePlus logo into the boot animation -- and I thought that was it. Apparently, it hung up half-way through.

The last method they mentioned was to put the phone in the freezer in a zipper bag and TRUTHFULLY it worked after being in there for 10 minutes. The phone booted up, went through the installation setup and it worked for a while... until it didn't.

Apparently, my battery does not charge and it's stuck at 0% all the time. Seems a bit suspect. Will dig further into it.

Time will tell. At the very least we will have Wear OS, which has me hopeful. Just like in the past before Knox made things more challenging for full root.
[Xiaomi Redmi 8A Dual] ari666:
My device (Redmi 8A Dual) is on bootloop and im trying to flash it from the MiFlash Tool but i can't do it, it gets stuck on Authentication and I don't have any MI Account on this device please help. Thank You.
[Xiaomi Redmi 8A Dual] callmebutcher101:
Are you able to get into recovery? What kind of authentication? I don't think you need an MI account to flash using MiFlash Tool.
[Xiaomi Redmi 8A Dual] ari666:
Yes, I'm able to boot into Recovery but my phone is bootloader locked that's why it's asking for Mi Account Authentication in order to flash using MiFlash.
[Xiaomi Redmi 8A Dual] callmebutcher101:
Bootloader locked is a bummer. You can't flash anything in fastboot. Now your only bet is EDL mode. And it requires someone with an MI authorized account. Try to take it to a service center.
[Xiaomi Redmi 8A Dual] Maxfutur:
You need to enter fastboot.

Remember the account used to unlock the device, it is exactly the same, I did it because I locked my olivewood on flashing firmware and had to solve it.

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] spamtrash:
OK, let's go back to beginning: you've bought the used phone. 960F never was (as factory leaving) dual sim phone.

so, let's start from the beginning:

contact the seller and ask what the hell have you bought (if it was any variant of the S9 at all.. somehow I doubt it).

2nd: write down the IMEI and serial number, and check with Samsung if this configuration ever existed (if not, what I suppose, the IMEI/sn info about the REAL model can give you a hint what have you bought).

Having the above info in hands, find the "service firmware", 5 files ROM for your device and try to flash it.

If it will not work still, I'm afraid you have two options:

1. check IMEI against stolen devices with your carrier.

2. Go to Samsung service asking for help.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] LR7875:
Well mostly it isn't a fake mediatek phone as it will not even have a download mode.

Probably he bought a shi**ily refurbished phone with it's internals mixed from multiple versions of the s9, in the best case.(a Frankenstein variant of the S9)
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] ASKnASK:
I'm going to solve this mystery for both of you. The phone he bought is indeed an S9. Here in Pakistan, 'software' guys in shops can convert these to dual sim models with some z3x and Chimera f*kery.

As for why his phone isn't working - it is because the phone had a tampered IMEI to bypass local custom charges levied on all imported phones (insane charges, doubles the price of these kinda phones). Once he flashed a new image on his phone, his IMEI status would have become NG instead of OK, which prevents the phone from accessing any networks.

Solution is to visit the same 'software' guys, ask them to 'patch' the phone. It is a 5 minute process, requires root (which these phones already have).

I was using official miui 12.5 with no issues. Decided to unlock bootloader and flashed miui eu 12.5.4 and everything worked fine until i decided to flash weekly rom.

THE ISSUE

Video rewarded ads from apps and games lagging

games lagging

music playback lagging. ( songs play for a few seconds and there's a gap of few seconds)

the music lag feels like streaming songs with a bad network with buffering, this happens with downloaded songs too. To fix this, I flashed 12.5.4 stable and everything was working fine. I am facing the same issue if I update to 12.5.5 stable.

tried flashing havoc os on 12.5.5, the problems mentioned above still exist, but if i flash it on 12.5.4 there's no issues. I guess its a firmware issue. tried to register on xiaomi.eu but its not happening

how do I fix this?
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] silveraero:
Weekly rom is not stable because it is based on beta version of MIUI. Bugs are expected. If you want stability, stick to stable build.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] ApexPrime:
To fix music playback, try setting the storage access permission to "always allow" and disable battery optimization and app power saver for the music player you're using.

[Samsung Galaxy A6 Questions & Answers] nqnxev:
I'm not sure what you understand as "pesky chinese stuff". Do you mean Magisk? So you just want different rooting method?

You can just flash any AOSP-based GSI image (prerooted without Magisk, or just even without root access). Lineage GSI is available as well and there's no need to have root to flash that. You need to have just unlocked bootloader.

[Samsung Galaxy A6 Questions & Answers] nqnxev:
GSI - Generic System Image (because we don't have specific builds for A6), but it's the option for you if you don't mind about lack of VoLTE. For that you need to have some custom recovery (TWRP or OrangeFox).

However if you're rooting for the first time I would rather suggest just flashing Magisk. Just follow the guide.
[Samsung Galaxy A6 Questions & Answers] Weirdhunter:
I have unlocked my bootloader and i still want to root my A6 without using PC
[Samsung Galaxy A6 Questions & Answers] nqnxev:
You need to have custom recovery to flashing such things without PC. So... you still need a PC at first to flash custom recovery.

Tested it with MicroG v1.3.1-beta, works really good, also, in case you use MicroG, i recommend to enable an option on settings/accounts/google that is disabled by default after adding an Google account, so, your account could get detected by Google Apps, i could even backup my whatsapp data to Google Drive (didn't try restoring)

Edit: i recommend to download any GApps package (i recommend MindTheGapps then extract Google calendar and contacts sync, put them into system with any root explorer then factory reset)

Another thing i can recommend is to odex some of the system apps if possible, so an Factory Reset will take less time, especially if you want to keep on this ROM
