In your first post, when you said "bootloader", do you actually mean the Android Recovery menu?
[Samsung Galaxy S21+] KOKJ:
Yes, I did. I fixed it now.

Simultaneously press and hold the Volume up and side buttons until the device vibrates and the Android Recovery screen appears then release all buttons. Allow up to 30 seconds for the recovery screen to appear. From the Android Recovery screen, select Wipe data/Factory reset.
[Samsung Galaxy S21+] KOKJ:
Seriously? Why didn't I think of that? On a serious note, if you read the thread you'll see that this doesn't work.
[Samsung Galaxy S21+] iBowToAndroid:
Reading is hard, mmmkay? 😂

It sounds like you're dealing with an MDM lock. FRP doesn't prohibit stock firmware from being flashed, but MDM does. And an MDM lock would also prevent it from being factory reset via the Recovery menu. I was asking for the Download mode picture in order to confirm the MDM status

[Sony Xperia M5] ffpp.2003:
Hey, so, some days ago i found this device on my workplace. No one claimed it, so i took it home. After having a closer look, the phone is in terrible conditions. Back panel is totally shattered (it even has a hole in it) and is almost glue-free. Front glass looks to be good, screen dosent seems to be cracked or damaged (i cant tell for sure) and charging port seems OK. I tried everithing to turn it on, but the only thing i get is a red light, only when connecting the phone to a charger. After unplugging it from the charger the led is still on, so it might be software stuck. The battery is OK, i measured it with my multimeter, voltage is 4.2V. I tried disconnecting everything exept charging port, but still nothing. I totally dissasembled the phone to have a closer inspection, and it seems to be all right. No water damage, no dirt, no flexing on the main board. I also tried connecting it to my PC, and i noticed that the phone tries to do something, but it fails half way. When i connect the phone, on the first 10 seconds, nothing happens, but after that, my pc detects a new COM port (COM4). Its detected for 5 seconds, and then it dissapears. That is what happens indefenetly. Nothing, appears as COM port, disappears. I tried using Xperia Companion, but i got no luck, since phone dosent turns on, and it also wont get to the bootloader/fastboot. I also tried to connect to the COM port with PuTTY, but i dont know what baud rate to use, and also, its a very short period, so i dont think there is enough time to establish a connection.

What else can i try?
[Sony Xperia M5] royyyyim:
put in fozener 2 days and take out to power charger, it work for me
[Sony Xperia M5] chris@xda:
Probably the battery is broken in case it doesn't charge.

This version of twrp does not support backup and restore.

Install to both slots.

Fastboot flash --slot all boot twrp.img

Steps to install custom roms and root with Magisk.

Put magisk.zip, rom and twrp.img on your internal storage.

Reboot to twrp recovery.

Factory reset.

Install, select ROM zip and swipe to flash.

It will install to opposite slot, no need to reboot to install gapps if necessary. Install ROM and gapps if necessary. Then reinstall twrp image. Click install, install image. Select twrp image. Choose, boot and install to both slots and swipe to flash. The purpose of this last step is because after flashing ROM, twrp is overwritten by custom recovery. This will ensure twrp is kept.

Boot phone to system once then reboot to recovery and install magisk.zip file. Then reboot to system. Setup phone and click on magisk app. It will download full magisk app and you will be rooted. No more patching magisk file for root or adb side loading Roms. This is not my work. I'm just sharing.
[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] EngineerMind:
Hi,

Just curious, what is the difference between your above version as opposed to this previous version (which does support backup/restore)?

https://xdaforums.com/t/twrp-3-5-2-11-for-sunfish-testing.4179101/
[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] TheSayaMan:
The difference is that you don't need a custom kernel with this version and this version is installed permanently as boot instead of ramdisk.
[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] EngineerMind:
Even though you can install the other TWRP permanently, I do like the feature of yours of not having to use a custom kernel, but I need back/restore ability, so I guess I have to stick with what I have.
[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] kiritoxd:
Hi,

Does this twrp allows the installation of other GSI images as well? Does the rom's build number have to do with anything if you want to root with this twrp? Can this twrp be overwritten/reverted or changed back to the stock recovery when flashed stock google images if anything goes wrong? Does installing a custom kernel after installing this twrp break anything?

Sorry for the sheer amount of questions as i'm still quite new to this kind of stuff for this phone specifically.
[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] TheSayaMan:
Yes

Yes, you can install other images. You can root with this, build # doesn't matter. Twrp will be overwritten if you flash stock images or even other custom Roms. You would have to flash twrp to both slots again after flashing. I haven't tried custom kernel's so I couldn't help you with that.
[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] kiritoxd:
Hi,

Thanks for replying to my previous questions. I have tried to flash a GSI but was unsuccessful. There was no errors in TWRP when flashing the GSI image but it just wont boot. It will be redirected back to the bootloader with the error "no valid slot to boot" after flashing.

I had this issue previously when installing GSI images even through the normal fastboot but it won't boot modded boot images, the stock ones work. Is there something that i'm doing wrong here?
[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] kiritoxd:
actually now that i think of it, I dont think its an issue with TWRP. I think is just that the Google Pixel 4A does not allow GSI installation. XD

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrNice:
Hi there,

For the second time, after an update, I can't enter in my phone. I key the pin and the phone goes back to the enter pin.

I had (for the second time) to recover from the backup.

My process to update is:

Menu Settings > System > Advanced > Updater > Install (last version)
It will reboot to TWRP automaticaly
Backup, nandroid AND directories, (many backups)
Click INSTALL then go to /data/lineageos_updates (not in sdcard)
Select the good file .zip
Wipe to install
At the end, clean the Cache/Dalvik cache
Reboot

Is it my mistake? How to fix it?

Thanks

Hi, had my x3 pro a week and now the Gmail and chat notification sounds aren't working, pop up works but no sound. eBay sound works. Anyone got any idea how to cure this? I've gone through all permission settings and even reset Gmail.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] anthonyexmouth:
Well, done a factory reset last night, still got the problem, get occasional vibration alerts from ebay app but no sound and no vibration or sound alerts from Gmail but the notifications do appear in the bar and floating notifications work. Speakers work, boot sound works, media audio works.

Any idea? Is this a MIUI thing? Thinking about sending back to Amazon if i cant sort this soon.

Is this the only problem with this phone?

Do I have to wait for the Gmail update?

Yeah, I've installed outlook client and it works fine, I'll keep using that until Google Gmail gets updated

Hi everyone,

I'm using since a long time this apps : Interval Alert Timer but she is not maintain anymore and bug under the latest android version.

Meaning that the TTS will not kick when the screen is off (even if the apps is set as "No battery optimization" in the android settings.)

I almost find an alternative : Speaking Timer Voice Stopwatch but this crash, because I believe it require gapps.

So do you know an alternative ? (that do not need gapps)

or where could I look ?

*removes screen overheat dimming"

after 20 minutes of heavy gaming screen dies

*blames oneplus saying very bad phone bad quality etc.*

been there, seen that. to this day many indian users remove thermal configs on their oneplus/xiaomi devices and eventually ends up with dead batteries, ghosted screen, hell some just burn their phones (x3 nfc)
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Cool the phone. A fan on it and/or a damp microfiber cloth. Avoid overheating the device.

It's possible for hysterious to cause the thermal protection to fail to adequately protect the device especially in direct sunlight.

The display's thousands of semiconductors are vulnerable to thermal damage, not just the chipsets.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] dlads:
Hahah.

Do this with a PC when it's throttling.

Call the fire brigade first just incase
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] dlads:
Yep was thinking this too.

Slap a nice big heat sync on the back of the phone.

Problem is the battery is still going to take a massive hit every time anyway.. so you can't win really
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Meh, yeah pretty much born to lose🤣

The problem is the long game jerk off sessions on a micro laptop with very limited heat dissipation.

Limit to 5 or 10 minutes or use a gaming PC.

&

Turn down the brightness...
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] trueiceman:
its not like i leave it dim when it automatically dims., i raise the brightness right away and do this until im done with my gaming session. Phone doesnt catch fire. Thanks for the thermal tip.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] dlads:
Or a handheld fan made for phones...think theres a few on Amazon.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
It's getting around a 100F ambient here, I use a damp microfiber cloth plus fan when charging and otherwise as needed.

I just watch the battery temp as the chipset runs cool (>120F) for browsing.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] dlads:
That's insane... Have you under locked or played about with CPU speeds? They don't always stick but may help.

I've seen a difference.

Are you using a case on your phone?

It'd be nice if a cooling vent was possible so we could point a solution at it, almost like a latch then have a pass through fan.

Or even plug in and stop using the lithium battery, that should eliminate a bunch of heat.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
A stock N10+ snap running on Pie, brightness 30-40%, power setting: optimized, it's in a Zizo Bolt case. Optimized; no cloud storage, wifi, Google play Services, Playstore are normally disabled, and no social media apps. When I first got it it was a hot running power hog... a real menace.

At >95-98F if streaming vids* I need to cool it or give it a rest by browsing after 20-30 minutes. At 100F ambient that's getting near the 102F limit I try to stay below on the battery for best lifespan. That's what's limiting me, not so much the cpu core temp.

It's a clean running machine that's gorgeous, and gets good SOT. Samsung has given me zero incentive to upgrade it... so I bought a second new one about a year and a half ago.

*streaming vids uses almost twice the power as just surfing on the browser. Watching downloaded vids uses less as surfing.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] dlads:
They're extreme temps, how hot is it where you are?
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
It's 84F at 9AM, but should hit 104 today.

But it's a dry heat🤣

Being inside is roughly 5° cooler by the time the ambient outside temperature peaks.

W Texas, is not Death Valley by a long shot.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] dlads:
Bit toasty that mate, it's 25c here (celcius)

Would a case make a difference? Maybe underclock as well.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
It's already 91F here, the only reason it's not hotter yet was it's a bit overcast. That's burning off, no rain forecast for the next week, just heat.

I never use the power saving mode as it's a pain.

Oddly using peak cpu performance doesn't really add more speed than in the optimized mode.

Using max resolution you take about a 4-6% hit per hour. Even with 20/10 vision the difference is hard or near impossible to spot, mostly pointless to do.

Without a case the N10+ is hard to handle and would get destroyed. Not sure how much of a difference in heat dissipation no case makes as I never tested it. Not worth the risk.

The only bad thing with a case is spotting a failed swelling battery is hidden. Had that happen 2 years ago. Was very lucky the display wasn't damaged. Normally I take the case off every 2-3 months for cleaning as it attaches very little dust and dirt.

Always watch for changes in battery capacity and fast charging performance. If fast charging fails to engage or doesn't stay engaged within its normal temperature and charge % ranges it maybe a battery failure in progress. Batteries can fail at any time but is more likely to happen once a Li is degraded (80% or less of its original capacity).

This current Li has been hovering around 80-84% of it's original capacity for 6 months now. It's a little over 2 years old... I need to change it out soon. Lol, it's outlasted the OEM battery by over 6 months🤣 In all fairness though when I first got the phone it was a power hungry hog, took a few months to figure out how to tone it down. Another reason you want to always optimize a new Samsung; battery lifespan, not just for SOT/heat/performance.

Night and day difference.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] dlads:
Yea defo don't use qhd it's pointless..

Also wouldn't use power saver, I meant actually underclocking in Franco kernel

manager.

I knock them down a few notches, definitely helps.

Also with heat your phone will charge a tonne slower.. first step is 37c then 39 then 40 and so on...

Under 37c and you're getting the full 80 watts.

I think a case with some space In it would help with heat dissipation..

Android 12 also seemed to be much more efficient than 13, I've contemplated going back again and have done a few times.

Certainly shouldn't have to but needs must.

[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
The N10+'s are both snaps, locked bootloaders.

With a damp microfiber cloth it charges under 95F even when it's insanely hot.

There's a very small airspace on back. It actually does quit well.

I'm still running on 9 and 10. Pie seems to run the best and is more functional. 10 has some nice tricks but has many dozens of new system apps for the UI. Oddly my disable list is nearly identical for both phones right now. That may change as I play with it more... but I really like Pie.

No plans to upgrade either. No malware on this phone (Pie) in over 3 years so it's relatively secure as configured/used.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] dlads:
Android 9 and 10 lool root them both mate and install an efficient kernel unless you can't, in which case that sucks.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
The Snapdragon variants are notoriously hard to root. They also have a good vapor phase heatpipe on the SOC.

Not worth it as they run well now
