[LG V40 Questions & Answers] romanrsr:
Hi friends, I currently have the version V405UA020f 00 USC US OP 0310 installed, and I need to go back to some version of ATT since I need it to ask me for the unlock network code. I have downloaded the backup of the user @AsItLies but I don't know how to restore it from QFIL, can someone guide me? I have tried loading only the .xml file but when pressing Download I immediately get an error.
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] AsItLies:
I've not had much luck getting qfil to load a backup, but you could post a screenshot of what you have before it doesn't work, someone may be able to help.

2 ways that will definitely work; 1) do ea partition one at a time (yes, it's time consuming) 2) use bkerler edl utilities (these are python based and it's a command line interface).

So now you know of course, but for anyone else, crossflashing does not unlock the sim. If it's locked, stay on oem firmware until you get it unlocked. Or else u face the prob romanrsr is facing now.

cheers
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] romanrsr:
Hi AsItLies, Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge!

I have been able to flash partition 0 with QFIL, there were no errors but now the phone does not turn on at all. I have put it to charge for more than an hour but it shows no signs of life. It is also not detected by the PC when I connect it. Do you know how I can solve it? Thanks again!
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] AsItLies:
I can only guess, as that isn't usual. It may well still be in edl mode. To get out of edl, hold vol minuse and pwr button for at least 5 sec. And also, leaving it in edl mode, it will 'time out', but it doesn't auto boot by itself.

iirc, when flashing the 'luns' in qfil, after ea one it will reboot and u have to go back to edl mode again.

when you say you 'flash partition 0 with QFIL', is that with the xml? or you did all of slot A by hand (one by one)?

cheers
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] romanrsr:
I do not think it is in EDL mode, since when I connect it to the PC it does not detect any port, and in the device manager it does not detect it either. I've already tried hold vol minuse and pwr button for several seconds, but nothing happens. Screen always black.

I have flashed from QFIL with the xml.
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] AsItLies:
pretty sure that if edl mode 'times out' (because it hasn't been used or accessed), then it's not going to show up in device manager.

yes the flashing with qfil and the xml will need to go out of edl mode and back in for ea lun. Flashing the 0 lun alone isn't going to fix anything, have to do them all.

Your only option here is to keep trying. There's no magical 'press this button' to fix this. If you try and can't get it out of edl mode, try going back in edl mode. The device will go into edl mode from any screen, but in some cases you won't get any kind of a 'count down', you just have to count or maybe the screen will change, then spam vol up.

good luck
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] romanrsr:
You were correct! I Press the volume down + power keys, and then pressing the up key several times the QFIL detected it again. I have already flashed your backup and boot OK.

Now I have the following problem, when I insert another SIM it does not appear to enter the unlock code, but I get the error "This phone is permanently locked and can not be unlocked", did you have any experience with this?

It occurred to me to try to update it to the latest version via FOTA and LG Software, but it tells me that the latest version is already installed. Can you think of something? Thanks!
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] AsItLies:
Unfortunately I've no experience there at all, always buy phones that are unlocked, have never had a carrier locked phone.

check with at&t, if the device is eligible to be unlocked, I think they are obligated by law to help.

cheers
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] romanrsr:
Many Thanks AsItLies, I ask you one last question. I have found some files in the forum (AT&T Android 10 (30b) .bin files), but they don't have the .xml files. Do you know how I can flash these files with QFILL or how to generate the .xml?
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] AsItLies:
Which files exactly are you referring to? There are some files because of IMEI and serial number that you should not flash.
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] romanrsr:
Check this:

File folder on MEGA

mega.nz

[LG V40 Questions & Answers] AsItLies:
Use this xml. I created it to flash Q all at once, there aren't 0-6 luns, as the names are unique and not needed.

But just as a warning, it should work, I've used it, but it's only been tested on my device, which was originally at&t. And, I'd point out, doing this isn't going to unlock the sim.

cheers

I recently bought the chinese version of motorola edge s but this security update is taking forever..not finished. It is kinda stuck on the march update but the google updates are upto date..any help on fixing this issue.
[Motorola Moto G100 / Edge S] sd_shadow:
You can use LMSA rescue option, it will flash the newest firmware available for your device.

The rescue option will wipe data.

It may offer to update, without data wipe, but I don't think that feature is working now.

It's probably downloading slowly. Had a similar issue and just waited it out. It eventually finished downloading and installing the update.
[Motorola Moto G100 / Edge S] Pingmaster:
Hi thanks for your reply . I tried for few hours then it says Applying update step 3 of 6.. 40% completed and then again it goes back to 0%...you had this same kind of issue because i waited for 3 hours for it to finish but i didnt.
[Motorola Moto G100 / Edge S] Shadowthor:
Oh, in that case, reboot the phone and see if the update goes through, if it doesn't you can follow the steps that sd_shadow mentioned earlier.
[Motorola Moto G100 / Edge S] Pingmaster:
Thanks a lot..rebooting didnt work..have to go for other option i guess..
[Motorola Moto G100 / Edge S] Shadowthor:
Another option might be to cancel the update and restart the update.
[Motorola Moto G100 / Edge S] ijuanp03:
It took me overnight (could have been more than 5 hours) to successfully update to this firmware. You are downloading through China server which is really really slow. Have patience. Download while you're sleeping.
[Motorola Moto G100 / Edge S] Shadowthor:
Yup. I wonder when the next update will be out. Considering this patch is from may for the security update.
[General Questions and Answers] CuteHunkie:
I own a Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime Plus (SM-G532F/DS) that I recently rooted. All was good till I messed with permissions of some partitions so I had to stock flash it & re-root. So I downloaded the original recovery.img file (or so I think), restored it through TWRP but got a SELINUX POLICY NOT ENFORCING error & previously, my data partition was corrupt & needed to be wiped (due to my permissions tinkering) but TWRP was unable to mount data partition for that. I then tried flashing just the stock recovery.img extracted from stock firmware on which I eventually flashed the lot. Now my phone is fine but everytime I turn it on, the screen is black as it no longer displays the “Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime Plus & Powered by Android” logo anymore. This is actually bothering me so, does anyone know how to restore it or something I can try? Flashing boot.img didn't help so I am stuck with this.

If a similar thread exists please direct me to it. I was unsuccessful in searching for one here & elsewhere..
[General Questions and Answers] LR7875:
Try boot into download mode and reflash stock ROM ( www.samfw.com )?
[General Questions and Answers] Deleted member 1890170:
@CuteHunkie

On Samsung devices the boot logo is stored in file param.lfs. If you explore param.lfs, you will find a file called logo.jpg. Thats it, the BOOT LOGO.
[General Questions and Answers] CuteHunkie:
That didn't work at all.. 😭
[General Questions and Answers] CuteHunkie:
That didn't help at all..
[General Questions and Answers] CuteHunkie:
Thanks for this. It isn't so much as getting the logo.jpg file but flashing it. I just flashed the param.bin (the one that comes with my stock ROM, 5 files by the way) on the AP section which worked. All along I had been flashing it on the Bal section since I had 5 files to flash.. 😤😧
[Moto G Power Questions & Answers] Vision919:
First of all, the boot-up took longer than usual, about 20 minutes (which has happened before) I didn't worry much about it and put it back in my bag to boot up. I checked it again later and it booted up, but the only thing I saw is a lock icon on the top of the screen. I was going to restart the phone but the whole GUI (of the power options) is different, I've never seen it before. I didn't want to **** anything else up, so I just shut it down and here I am. I do use Superior OS and have contacted a developer about it, I wanted to post here as well though. I didn't do anything different before the problem started, nothing seemed unusual also. I hope this is enough information to help solve my issue, thanks in advance.

The pictures for the lock icon and power options GUI is attached.

[Monitors] VBabbar:
Ok Mateview monitor is good!! The article is emphasizing on the 16:9 as the best ratio for extended display (external).

One of tge points states that this ratio is good for viewing movies as the black bars ate there to gibe cinematic look.

But thia is the old tradition!!! As of now most persons prefer more screen to body ratio even in pcs and laptops.

Monitors with display like 21:9 are getting more popular by branding as ultrawide display!!

Also they look aethetic

Tbh, 21:9 will crop the video film from top and bottom!! It is soomed display!!

So i would say 18:9 is muchh better!!!

18:9 gives u some cinematic screen with minimum black bars!!!

No cropping of videos!

Wide screen (not ultra wide).

But i cant find 18:9 display in market!!! If you can find any like yhis it sill br much better. Pls share any models if u find!!

Contrary to this Lenovo has lot of ULTRAWIDE 21:9 display which CROP THE VIDEOS!!!!

Getting this for some reason after installing magisk
[OnePlus 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] passion8059:
Are you on beta channel? Have you tried going back to stable and see if it rectifies it?
[OnePlus 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] ired4444:
On canary
[OnePlus 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] ired4444:
Stable didn't fix it

Sorry for the late reply bud, I'm uploading a new build of the ROM and uploading the Recovery from it. I use Magisk 23 stable.

The upload is going to be in the Sourceforge link from the original post. Please Format you userdata partition during the update to avoid a dirty flash issue, this update is essentially a rework of my original source using Derpfest assests.
[OnePlus 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] ired4444:
Appreciate the reply. Quick question. For Magisk do I just sideload it like the rom after installation of rom?

Install the ROM and reboot to recovery and install Magisk.
[OnePlus 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] ired4444:

Anyone else's phone glitching out whenever a notification goes through? The System UI crashes and goes back to the lockscreen. Also, battery life is pretty bad?

Certain apps like banking app detect my phone as rooted even though i am not. Also, when using camera nightscape it has pinkish results.

Can we adjust the vibration when we slide back? Because it make vibration 2 times when slide back
[OnePlus 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] k9r4n16:
For the banking issue, Magisk root your device and install Magisk Hide and hide your Magisk app (in settings). You'll have to reboot 3/4 times during the entire process, but that's what works for me with Google Pay.

I'll try reflashing my device. I know I factory reset the device in recovery and with fastboot -w, so I'm not sure what could've went wrong. I came from Lineage OS 18.1 if that makes a difference? And I have the T-Mobile Version, IN2017.
[OnePlus 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Frawz:
Ouhh i see. I'll do that
[OnePlus 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] k9r4n16:
Well, I re-flashed the ROM without a data wipe and now it runs smoothly. The notification crash had stopped, though the device does still kick me back to the lockscreen for no reason. I'm trying to figure out what caused it, but it doesn't happen frequently enough for me to know.

Still an issue, I can't seem to check for system updates?
[OnePlus 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] passion8059:
Won't be able to get updates as in beta and not official yet

[OnePlus 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] FoxyDrew:
Oneplus 8 doesn't have a working TWRP (unless your on the 8T i believe). Try using LinageOS recovery from the LinageOS thread.

Also safe to assume this is the first ROM you're flashing on your OP8. I wouldn't recommend a ROM in beta if that's the case lol

When the dev thinks it's ready. So no answer. Also your second question won't get an answer until your first one does, so who knows.
