Not entering recovery or anything! It's just stuck there. When I turn off and try to restart it again stays the same ie. On bootloader.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] Andrologic:
I mean can you scroll with the volume up/down buttons to you see Recovery and push the power button to enter recovery like normal? If you can, try doing a factory reset from there. If that's not possible, try doing a RAW firmware install - but check if you can just do a normal reset first..
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] Zillion:
If adb works just try with

adb flashing unlock

or

adb oem unlock

If it doesn't work reboot to bootloader and try again.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] garvitkhatod:
Even if I prees button on recovery it against reboots to same place. It's like an example infinite bootloop.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] Andrologic:
OK. Guessing you've locked the bootloader with a tampered boot.img without flashing stock boot back first. You should be able to use a RAW file to rebuild the firmware (your private stuff will be lost though).
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] garvitkhatod:
No I've flashed stock boot.img before and flashed afterwards. Can I still flash anything with bootloader locked?
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] Andrologic:
Yes I'm quite sure you should be able to flash a clean firmware with a RAW rom. Use the FTM flashall script.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] twistedumbrella:
This probably shouldn't be a how to guide and the title should be something more descriptive than "help"

A how to guide typically includes instructions, like this one:

WARNING: Read BEFORE Locking Bootloader

DO NOT LOCK THE BOOTLOADER WHILE ROOTED! When locking the bootloader while rooted, the boot image will fail verification and the system will fail to boot. You cannot flash a stock boot image with a locked bootloader. Locking the bootloader will...

The good news is that you can still flash a raw firmware with the bootloader locked.

[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] Andrologic:
Which file/script are you using to start the RAW flashing?
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] 3rehaan:
I'm Using These Files ..

Flash_raw.cmd

Flash all_AFT.cmd

All those file Didn't work
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] Andrologic:
Use flashall_FTM.cmd and suggest removing the "@ ECHO OFF" line from the top of the script and save before running it (so you can better see what's going on). If it breaks read out what the error is. The ".log" files also provide useful info.

Power off the device. Volume UP + Power to get into bootloader mode. Confirm you have a good Fasboot bridge. Run Flashall_FTM.cmd. If the flashing is working, you should see lines like:

Example:

Sending 'partition:0' (44 KB) OKAY [ 0.000s]

[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] 3rehaan:

Please Help Me
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] Andrologic:
Ok. You should be able to do an FTM flash. Use my RAW instead. No need to edit the scripts or anything, it's all good to go. This will get you back to the WW .46 ROM if succesful. I've made a link for you here:

File on MEGA

mega.nz

1. Download the above RAW. Unzip it.

2. Turn off the device. Reboot with Vol UP + Power until you're back in bootloader

3. Plug in the phone from the

side

USB port (not the bottom port)

4. Make sure there is no Windows firewall, virus protection or anything else in the way that may block traffic.

5. Type "Fastboot devices" and confirm that your device is recognized (should return your device w serial no)

6. Now open the above RAW folder and open a command line in this exact folder (be careful not to mix up with the previous RAW)

7. Run the FTM_flashall.cmd script from this folder

8. Good luck.

(P.s: I'm more concerned that your bootloader screenshots show no IMEI)

Which ROM were you on when this mess happened? Were you on a WW or CN rom? Do you know the exact ROM version? It may be worth for you to try and flash a CN RAW (same steps) and see if it makes a difference. This smells a bit like a WW vs CN conflict.

[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] twistedumbrella:
If all else fails and you can't get to recovery to factory reset, there is a fastboot wipe

fastboot erase data
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] Andrologic:
I'm out of suggestions but I came to think of one last thing you can try: When you lock the bootloader (as it seems you've done), your fastboot reverts to the CSC fastboot (althoug the ROG 5 bootloader doesn't show it). However, if you try entering fastboot from recovery, maybe it makes a difference for flashing RAW's. Unfortunately I think your flashing issue is related to the totally corrupted firmware on the device (I don't know who sold you this device but they haven't been nice to you). But you may want to give it a try.

Long story short try this:

1 - Boot the device into bootloader (like before)

2 - Do a 'fastboot reboot fastboot" OR go 'fastboot reboot recovery' and select Enter Fastboot Mode from the menu. The device should reboot into a screen actually saying Fastboot (Or Fastboot Mode, I forgot)

3 - Try doing a RAW flash exactly like before. Try with both the WW rom and CN rom. Use the FTM scripts again.

The only other thing I myself would try would be to see if the bootloader can somehow be unlocked from the fake/corrupted rom on your device from the settings menu (i.e OEM Unlock) or via conventional fastboot commands etc (probably not possibe though)

If the above doesn't work, I really can only recommend:

(A) Return the device back to whoever sold it to you (I'm guessing impossible).

(B) Send the device to ASUS and request the firmware to be rebuilt. They will charge you but my guess is it won't be more than US $50 or you may be lucky and they help you out for free

(C) Wait for EDL firehose files for this device to become available. Unfortunately the few people who have it are not sharing it.

Finally, if I were you, I would probably not put any personal files, contacts, passwords or other sensitive data on this device in current state. The firmware on this device looks to be corrupted. I don't know who sold it to you but it may not be safe. I've never seen a ROG 5 with the firmware from your screenshot unless it's something specific to the CN version.

Hello good, yesterday my little brother bought a Samsung A70 but he did not realize that it came with a Samsung account, and if he does not have the password he does not allow the mobile to be formatted. Could someone give me a solution or what could I do?
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] Mohamedkam000:
Samsung Account is the same FRP as Google Account since maybe 2013? If it's not removed before formatting, it'll lock the device.

You'll have to ask the previous owner to erase the account using the password. Or you can check this.

Reminder: this is not the section for questions.

1. I asked moderators to move this to the Q and A forum

2. Your brother have probably being scammed and got a stolen device. Request a refund immediately.

That's not quite accurate, most people forget about Samsung Account, a while ago, a friend of mine was buying an A30s, the guy removed the Google Account, but he didn't know that Samsung Account can trigger FRP.

I told him about the Account, then he removed it just fine.

[General Questions and Answers] tsr_timmy:
I am a retired programmer with too much time on my hands; as such, I wrote a complaint to a regulatory body about how I can't install the operating system I want on my device because it will render it unusable (if I can't call for help on a phone because of drivers, what good is it?). I received a response requesting an interview with an officer who specializes in anticompetition cases and I would like to make sure I have my eggs all in one basket.

The current mobile phone market I liken to the desktop OS market of the 90s, where you had companies like Xerox, Microsoft, IBM, and so on; in the 90s, there were antitrust lawsuits where a particular company was accused of intentionally creating barriers to customers seeking to install software by other companies on personal computers. Obviously, that was settled in the 2000s, but IMO it did appear to make a positive change even if we are still fighting against IE. This may not be relevant, but that's what my mind went to when I realized I couldn't uninstall the Play Store.

Nobody uses "cellular telephones" as telephones anymore; instead, they are mobile computers. Computers in the 80s/90s had plenty of OS options (you may recall using OS/2 or BSD), but you can't do that with mobile computers... is that a good thing?

In my retirement, I'd like to develop and build a mobile phone operating system that is not android (nor lineageOS); this would either be Linux or BSD-based with a simple package manager, but the user would have the option to compile their own software also. This would ideally *not* hinder the underlying function of the device (i.e. telephony), but I don't see how manufacturers could be compelled to provide binary drivers. The current mobile market makes it obviously a very high barrier to entry for any who want to develop new operating systems for mobile computers. Is this anticompetitive? Perhaps not, but I'd like to hear some opinions and if you would kindly point me towards some resources I would appreciate it.
[General Questions and Answers] Deleted member 1890170:
IMO the OS is not the problem - a command line based OS can be written by any talented student nowadays - preferably in C++, yes there are enough templates on the Internet, it is the device drivers what have to fit the hardware that make the whole thing difficult. I know that some OEMs put their device drivers' source code to the public.
[General Questions and Answers] tsr_timmy:
To install a new OS on a phone, the phone must first be booted into a bootloader such that the 'image' of the OS can be loaded. The image for the OS should be built with the drivers present such that when booting, the OS kernel can load the relevant drivers as it probes the hardware in the phone, and then the software installed on the user layer can access that hardware through the relevant system calls. How possible is it for the bootloader to load a custom OS in the general sense? The majority of instructions I find are on enthusiast/developer websites with the actual manufacturers giving basically no input (that is to say, I haven't seen on manufacturer's websites or instruction manuals where they give instructions for booting your choice of OS).

Would it be fair to say that mobile developers, like Google/Samsung/LG/Amazon/etc are restricting users from being able to install their own OS on their device? Is driver access a reasonable thing to ask for?

Again, I'm retired, so I have time on my hands, but I'm old and there's realistically not a lot of that time left. I don't want to try developing my own BSD-based mobile OS if there's no way for me to install it on my own devices; that effort could go into another project if it is otherwise wasted. I suppose it is worth asking whether I should bother returning the bureau's request for an interview.
[Moto G8 Plus Questions & Answers] bornheim2:
Hi,

on lolinet I see two different types of firmwares: QPI30 and QPIS30. I seem to be able to install only QPI30 (without the S) on my rooted G8 Plus.

Can someone explain the difference between those two?

Regards,

Bornheim
[Moto G8 Plus Questions & Answers] gfrank227:
I'm not 100% sure. I originally thought that the S was an indication of a security update. However, I am also seeing that the S builds start at the same time when A10 was released on this phone, so it may have something to do with that.

I recommend that you be very clear exactly which build you currently have, and then install only that exact build. If necessary, get the firmware from the LMSA download rather than lolinet to be sure. If you use a boot.img that doesn't coincide with your firmware, you'll break your touch-screen.....
[Moto G8 Plus Questions & Answers] slaterknight:
S is for secure (also signed).

You dont want that build if you want to play with your phone (rooting, modding, yadda yadda)

you also stick to your exact build if you want to flash only partial images.

you can switch safely between s and non s builds if you are going to flash whole firmware
