My photos are encrypted now can i restore them if i used otg? And how?
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] joydeb.taldi:
I can't decrypt A13 using '1OSS.DFE.ZIP'. Can you suggest me a 'DFE' for A13?

Device: OnePlus 5

ROM: Project Elixir 3.8
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Laptapper:
Installed really dfe and Format data with yes?

It should work
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] joydeb.taldi:
I was using 'crDroid 8.9' (A12) and my device was already decrypted.

1. Wiped dalvik cache, data, internal storage, cache, system.

2. Flashed 'Project Elixir 3.8' (A13).

3. Flashed '1OSS.DFE.zip'.

4. Wiped cache.

5. Rebooted to system.

And it rebooted to recovery after failing to boot. No, I did not format data after flashing '1OSS.DFE.zip' as my device was already decrypted. Is it necessary to format data after flashing ROM and DFE even if I'm already decrypted?
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Laptapper:
Imo after 3. there's needed to format data with yes again because changed from a12 to A13 (only once / then you can stay in all A13 ROMS if you flash only dfe after ROM before starting system without format again)

Hey guys, so I somehow soft bricked my Redmi Note 10 Pro by clean flashing LineageOS and now I'm somehow dumbfounded at how to flash stock from my PC. I used to root stuff a few years back and I don't remember it being this frustrating. Multiple guides state to download the ROM linked and then run this command from the extracted zip: '/windows_fastboot_first_install_with_data_format.bat'.

The thing is there are no .bat files in any of the ROMs I've downloaded, even when they're the specific file that has been linked in the threads telling me to use the .bat file.

If somebody could please help I would really appreciate it. This is incredibly frustrating and I need to get my phone working.

Apologires if this is in the wrong place.

Thanks

Hello

I looked through all the launch news but can't find if google photos backup/storage is still included for free with Pixel 6. Does anybody know?

Thx
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Oaklands:
I didn't see that either. They aret trying to get you to buy a whole bundle of stuff for $45/month. I'm not a gamer.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] TankedThomas:
They haven't included that for years now, so it's unlikely. If I remember correctly, the Pixel 2 was the last phone with infinite Google Photos storage.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Delboy.:
It's £1.50/month for 100GB storage (Photos & Drive)

Not included is Kinda Old news...

I bought the 2 TB Google One plan a few weeks ago, as it was time for me to either move onto a different Photos platform or fully commit. I came from the Pixel 1 with supposed "forever" unlimited original Photo quality syncing, but even when I tried to trick Google when backing up my photos from the Galaxy Note 10+ synced to the Pixel 1 via SyncThing, they were still taking up storage space.

I hate subscribing to anything, but Photos is just so far ahead of everything else like it. The 2 TB plan gave me 10% back in-store credit on my 2x Pixel 6 Pro / 2x Buds A-series purchases. I could probably go ahead and buy another two years' worth of 2 TB Google One with that credit - we'll see.

I have searched but am unable to find a list of original shipped ROMs for the Herald. In particular, I am looking for WWE 5.0. Can anybody point me in the right direction? Thanks.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] damnitpud:
I believe the herald was never shipped with 5.0. only 6.0. i could be wrong though.

Hmm the Wiki says it came with 5 also. Wouldn't mind getting my hands on 5.0 for the Wing, would run smoother!

[Wing, P4350 ROM development] networkingrus.com:
Yeah, it came with 5.0 originally. I have a customer that needs to run software that only runs on 5.0. I'm offering a nice reward from my website if anyone can help me get 5.0 ROM!

[Redmi Note 10 Pro] CallMeColor:
Same here. I watched all tutorials and how tos I could find, but I can't flash the rom. I eventually flash an EU rom using ADB Sideload and it did flash, but the rom never booted. So I flashed lineage.

I hope some of the more experienced users could help us. It's frustrating to say the least lol
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] anur@g:
You'll have to download fastboot rom for this device. It'll be in tgz format. When you'll extract that tgz file you'll get a gz file. You'll have to extract that gz file and you'll get the rom folder.

In that folder you'll find a file flash_all.bat. You'll have to connect phone to pc in fastboot mode and run that file as administrator.

After flash is complete the command prompt will close and device should take approximately 15-20 minutes for first boot.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] anur@g:
First boot takes time. Did you format data after flashing EU ROM? If formatting data wasn't possible in recovery then fastboot erase userdata command might have worked.

Thank you. I was able to get it to work.

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Oaklands:
I think I am reading it correctly that the unlocked model will not support Verizon mmwave but it should work fine with their other 5g services. I'm not near any of the large cities that use that anyway, so it is no big deal. I am tired of having a locked phone. I haven't kept up with everything in a few years. Can the bootloaders be unlocked and the device be rooted on the unlocked versions? Sorry it is a dumb question but I have been on Verizon Samsung phones for a few years.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] galaxys:
We really don't know officially yet, since it has a new CPU chip set until we get our hands on it....

But, usually Google wouldn't block Unlocking the BL.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Celeras:
I'll let you know, I'm kind of perpetually stuck ordering from Verizon because I get so many device dollars from my Fios account. Not really too concerned about unlocking but I'll check for you.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] bobby janow:
That's impossible. There won't be a Google device that doesn't support mmWave sold in the US. As for bootloader unlockable as long as you don't get the Verizon model from Google you can unlock it. Not sure what 3rd party retailers are doing. Stepping a little out on a limb here but I'll stick by it unless proven otherwise.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Atmazzz:
From Google store: Unlocked Pixel is not compatible with millimeter wave (mmWave) networks. See g.co/pixel/networkinfo.

I don't understand. In the chart it says it does work.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] freebee269:
on the google site there is an option for the verizon specific one. maybe they did that because verizon will only let their mmwave work on the pixel if it has a locked bootloader? wouldnt be out of the realm for verizon. the unlocked option on google site says works with the 3 major carriers.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] bobby janow:
No, that is not the case. Google sells the Verizon model for some reason unbeknownst to me but likely financial. Last year for the Pixel 5 they did the same thing. The Verizon model has different promos attached and you can buy it on your Verizon account without further credit checks and over a period of 24 months rolled into your monthly bill. But you cannot unlock the bootloader in that version, on the Fi and Unlocked version you can.

As for mmWave, every single Pixel device sold in the US is capable. Naturally it depends if your carrier supports it but if they do then you have it. The unlocked P6, or any P6 sold in the states will work on 8 carriers that support mmWave according to what I'm seeing. The locked bootloader on the Verizon device sold by Google is a horse of another color and has nothing to do with 5G capabilities. I am on Verizon but have bought the last 4 Pixels from Google and they all work as if I bought them directly from Verizon. Well... other than the fact I can bl unlock them and the 3a eSim fiasco on the VZW model.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] bobby janow:
I have read 5 websites including Google and mass confusion reigns. So I might be wrong and I might be right. Here's a link to the one that at least says no one knows wtf is going on. I still think all US versions will be mmWave capable but then there is the sub 5g and UWB thrown into the mix. What a mess. Suffice it to say I will never buy a Verizon branded device so they better sort this out before they ship.

Will Google's Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro work with 5G? The answer is complicated
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] mkhcb:
Damn I pre-ordered from their website and bought the unlocked version. From my research, it looks like phones bought unlocked from Google will be blocked from using network specific mmWave. If this is the case, I am returning this ****. Really, Google just had to find a way to fudge up a good phone.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Guyinlaca:
From what I understand:

All Pixel 6 Pro in the US support Sub6 + mmWave, (Whether a carrier allows access on unlocked models is unclear)

Regular Pixel 6 is Sub6 Only except for the Verizon variant which adds mmWave.

This has never been an issue on Unlocked Samsung models. Each variant has a different SKU and it'd be interesting to find out if it's a different modem entirely or just software optimizations.

My only concern with the Verizon version is that it may not be bootloader unlockable.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] znel52:
Think it depends on the carrier really. I know this is Samsung and not Google but my unlocked Note 20 Ultra 5G is able to use Verizon mmWave. I used it on Fremont Street in Vegas the speed was insane. I don't see why Verizon would block the Pixel 6 if other unlocked phones can use it but I guess these things can happen. In my case I don't really live anywhere near any mmWave areas so it doesn't matter to me as much if I can't use it.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] lucky_strike33:
This is what I am seeing on the google store.

3See g.co/pixel/specs for device configuration and capability. Contact carrier for details. 5G service is carrier dependent. Unlocked Pixel is not compatible with millimeter wave (mmWave) networks. See g.co/pixel/networkinfo.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Oaklands:
What a pain. Couldn't get through yesterday to order and out of stock today. What a bummer.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] znel52:
Yeah it was an absolute **** show. I was fortunate and got a 512gb after literally 3 hours of non-stop trying. Hope they re-stock soon for you! I've never had issues like this the last few years pre-ordering Samsung devices.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Guyinlaca:
The Verizon Pixel 6 Pro and Unlocked 6 Pro both listed the same supported bands, despite having a different SKU. When Google notes that the Pixel does not support mmWave, I think they're referring to the regular unlocked Pixel 6, not the Pro.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] draexo:
So... do I buy unlocked, which is what I prefer to do, even though I have not unlocked a bootloader in years, or do I buy Verizon, which I must use because of coverage where I live, to ensure compatibility 100%?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] lucky_strike33:
Was the pixel 5 verizon bootloader unlockable?? Maybe someone will have a way to unlock the verizon bootloader in the near future?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] draexo:
I am just getting the unlocked version. If it is an issue, I may either switch back to AT&T with my microcell (yes, I still have an AT&T microcell because wifi calling sucks) or sell the unlocked and get the Verizon. I used to be big into custom roms and unlocking bootloaders, but things are to the point where the need just is not there anymore on most phones. Except Samsung and all its bloatware. (sorry, I had to get that dig in!)
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Lw00d:
im unlocking BL .. as soon as the guide is available. then flash Verizon Factory Image. i should be good to go with (mmWave)

Pre ordered unlocked version.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] spotmark:
I've been unlocking and modding my phones since the OG Droid. Originally I would flash ROMs all the time, but Android has evolved so much that now I just unlock for dark mode and ad blocking. Now that dark mode is baked in all I need is the ad blocking. I also want to use my banking apps and Google Pay. So, for the first time in many years, I ordered the Verizon model from Google. I'll see if it's unlockable. If it isn't, no big deal. If it is, I might, and I might not.

With the unlocked OnePlus 8 Pro, we never got native Wi-Fi calling working on Verizon, so I don't want to miss out on that again, or any data bands.

I'm amped for the 6 Pro. I'm pretty sure I'll be happy with it. My brother-in-law is one of the heads of Photoshop and AI at Adobe. I'm think he'll be interested in taking a peek at it.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] EtherealRemnant:
The AT&T 6 model has mmWave as well. It's the T-Mobile and unlocked versions that don't.

The Pixel 6 Pro comes with mmWave on all US models.

Quite frankly this is stupid with the base 6 because T-Mobile has mmWave spectrum too and it's only a matter of time before they start rolling that out in places besides NY.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] bobby janow:
Where did you see that? I'll eat my hat if the Google version doesn't support mmWave. Did you know how many returns they'd have? Something is wrong in the reporting.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] EtherealRemnant:
It's here.

Understand 5G compatibility & roaming on Pixel phones - Pixel Phone Help

5G mobile networks let you use more bandwidth than 4G. With more bandwidth, you can get faster speeds. To confirm that you have a phone and carrier that supports 5G, you’ll need to buy a data plan an

support.google.com

GB7N6 (AU, CA, DE, FR, GB, IE, TW, US/US-FI/US-TMO)	Sub-6
G9S9B (US, AT&T & Verizon only)	mmWave

If you buy the US unlocked, Google Fi, or T-Mo versions of the regular 6, no mmWave.

If you buy from AT&T or Verizon, you get mmWave.

My guess is that Google decided to bake the mmWave cost into the extra $300 base the Pro has and decided that carriers who wanted mmWave on the 6 could pay extra (and indeed AT&T is charging $140 more for the 6 than buying it directly from Google unlocked and the Pro is an extra $40).

There is precedent for this. Google did it with the 4a 5G where you had to get it directly from Verizon to have mmWave.

EDIT: This also could very well mean that people going for the regular 6 will have to choose between mmWave and an unlockable bootloader because I wouldn't put it past AT&T to ask for/demand it like Verizon does.

EDIT2: AT&T is charging $140 more for the base 6, not $40. $739 vs $599.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] bobby janow:
I see now. I missed the US, Fi at the end. Cancelling my order for the 6. I'll stick with my 5 for another year. Worst decision Google ever made. The iPhone 13 Pro is looking really good now at 6.1" with mmWave and sub 6 not even an issue. They really messed this launch up. Thanks for the clarification. So damn disappointed.

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Oaklands:
I forgot all about the unlocked phones not working with WIFI calling on Verizon. Damn, I'm going to have to think this one over and maybe change my order. Guess I will have to think about how many places I go where I need the Wifi calling.

Here at home I have a 4g range extender from Verizon, so it is not a big deal.

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] mac796:
I was with Verizon over 15 years my op7 pro never worked right, visual voicemail never worked, wifi calling hardly ever, and text messages were delayed by certain people both ways. I bought an op8 pro unlocked, exact same issues. I dumped Verizon and went to TMobile a couple weeks ago with my op8 pro. Everything works perfect and it's cheaper. Wish I had left Verizon years ago. Also before someone asks I had the CDMA no provisions deal set up.

Edit. and the 5g works now. Didn't with Verizon
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Guyinlaca:
Wi-Fi Calling works on Samsung unlocked devices on Verizon so it's possible it will on the Unlocked Pixel 6 Pro too. Native video calling is the only feature that doesn't work, but Duo is better anyways.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Nochis:
My Unlock Pixel 3XL had wifi calling on Verizon. I think the 2 XL too.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Oaklands:
It's good to hear it works. I got to thinking if I am in an area where all I have is WiFi, then I can always use my Google Voice number. Problem solved. Nice to know it should work anyway. Appreciate the posts.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] bobby janow:
After my initial shock about mmWave, (I did put salt and ketchup on my hat before I ate it) with posts like yours I had to rethink my assessment about 5G. So after criticism regarding the P5 rollout that everyone in the US had to pay the extra $100 vs. the European model for the mmWave Google has indeed changed their model. Now you will pay the $100 for pretty useless tech and get a locked bootloader in the process. Now I'm not so sure what to do but I have not cancelled my order as of yet.

I did go to BB yesterday and look at the devices. The P6 Pro is too large for my purposes and the P6 is a little too large. But the sales guy had the iPhone Pro Max and that thing is a behemoth. He also said I'd get used to the slightly larger size and not notice it in a weeks time. So I'll see when it arrives. 15 day grace period with probably a $35 return fee if I can't live with it.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Even the best find themselves in the same position Werner Herzog Eats His Shoe (1980). :)

I used to swear that a 5.5 inch screen is the perfect size for me and that I wouldn't want any bigger. Since Google hadn't yet come out with a Pixel with 512 GB of storage yet after my Pixel 1 had stopped receiving updates almost two years ago, my wife and I upgraded to the Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ 512 GB (similarly to the 6 Pro being the only one available with 512 GB, the 10+ was the only one with a MicroSD card slot). We love the hardware but hate the software. I think my phone even knows it's about to be sold, as it's been acting even worse lately. The huge screen has been no problem for me. I can fit the phone in its Otterbox Defender case in my pocket fine, although I prefer not to sit with it like that - but most of the time I wouldn't want to sit with a phone in my pocket anyway.

I don't even use any of the abilities to have GBoard, for example, move towards the left or right in order to make it easier to reach everything with one hand.

I do really hate the curved screens, however, but it's a price to pay. Good luck with your choices!

meh, flash Verizon image to phone and if no mmwaves probably cause no mmwaves here lol. will report results when i get the device but not if it works.
