[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] ShadowJP88:
I do hate the new Android interface, large Button in the notification screen, screen that is also always full screen, can't control Chromecast volume with cellphone buttons.

So there is some major bug that are really annoying to me.

Is there anyone who rollback to A11?

Can i just Flash the latest version over Android 12? Is a full wipe required?
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
Full wipe is required when downgrading. If your bootloader is unlocked, you should be able to use the Android Flash Tool to install a previous build.

If your bootloader is locked, you will have to unlock it in order to downgrade.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] ShadowJP88:
Yeah my bootloader is unlocked, well.. Doing the rollback worth it, even if i want to have root on a12 that need to be done for now.

Thanks
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] dotmehdi:
Man, it's like I wrote this topic lol.

If we downgrade to Android 11, will it be possible to get all the security updates, or are they included in the latest images available on google.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Lol, 11 is no gem. I'd go back to 10. That is as high as I will go. Apple trashware is what Android has become, a bloated yappy poodle of an OS.

Who left that big Apple into the room?🤮🤮🤢☠🤣
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
Just like previous updates, Android 11 on the Pixel series has now been deprecated and will no longer be supported with updates.

While you're entitled to your personal opinion regarding Android versions, your comment is neither helpful nor appropriate in this context. Some of us like Android 12, some like 11, you apparently prefer 10. Everyone has their own preference. I personally don't like the C8 Corvette, and if I were to buy a Corvette, I'd go with the C7 (or maybe keep it old school and go with a C3). But, I'm not going to be disrespectful to someone and imply the C8 is trash because it's a wannabe Ferrari.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] dotmehdi:
I'm sorry my question wasn't clear

I meant, if I download the latest image on https://developers.google.com/android/images , will it include the latest patches of Android 11 ? I assume I will not get an invite to update to the latest patches, but directly to Android 12 which is why I wonder if I will also have to install all the ota patches myself
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
You don't need updates.

Don't buy the scare hype.

Almost all malware infections are done by the user and most are preventable.

{Mod edit} 11 is just a bad OS by design.

Android wanted to make it "safe" and "secure" for even the ignorami.

There's no saving ignorami... load at you're own peril🤣

{Mod edit: Language slightly adjusted - regards Oswald Boelcke}
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
Take a look at the link you posted. Every update, from the initial release to the most recent, is hosted there. The updates are cumulative, so if you install the latest firmware, it incorporates all previous updates.

If you have nothing productive to contribute, feel welcome to find your way to an OT forum.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] andybones:
There isn't any Android 10 factory image for the Pixel 5..
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
That's unfortunate, I thought that may be the case... my bad.

Maybe a custom rom built on Q but this may difficult because Titan M security chip found on the newer Pixels. Don't know if it can be bypassed as it's primary function is security.

In Q scoped storage doesn't appear to be implemented at least with older apps. That changes with R.

At the least I wait for 12 to see wide spread release for a few months before upgrading; let someone else work out/suffer the glitches.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] xstokerx:
How can I downgrade to 11 I'm not feeling the new update
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
Easiest way: Use the Android Flash Tool. Make sure you wipe data.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] lapingultah:
I feel the same way about Android 12 and successfully did a rollback (with full wipe unfortunately) using https://9to5google.com/2021/10/21/how-to-downgrade-from-android-12-to-android-11-on-google-pixel/ as a guide.

However, my concern now is how do I block 12 from updating automatically? I've disabled automatic updates under Developer Tools, but is that sufficient? I keep getting popups to update to 12 but so far I've managed to dismiss them. Last time I inadvertently dismissed an update popup like that the phone eventually told me too much time has passed and it will update now without giving me an option to prevent it. Do I need to enable OEM debugging and/or unlock the bootloader to really block OTA updates or is there an easier way?
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
OEM Debugging won't do anything to prevent updates; disabling Automatic Updates should do the trick. Not sure how to prevent the notification though, I'm on the latest 12 release and still getting an update notification. So are some others that aren't even rooted.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
You need to use an adb edit or package disabler to kill it or it will likely force update.

If the update downloads clearing the system cache before it completes may purge it. I haven't tested that though.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] ShadowJP88:
Go in settings, apps, In the Google Play services apps notification, there is a system update notification that can be disabled there.

I've format and install A11 back, rooted it, and since October 25, i haven't seen any update notification. I've already tried by the past to let the system update itself with the normal update way and it wasn't able to do it caused I'm rooted.. So i think I'm safe.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] lapingultah:
ADB edit or package disabler to kill... what exactly? I'm sorry I'm not that familiar with this specific area.

This is only for the notification though while other things do happen in the background still, right?
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] ShadowJP88:
I might be wrong but the fact of being rooted prevent the update to be pushed.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Are you rooted? If so there are better alternatives for you.

Package Disabler is what I use as I run stock. There are numerous threads on XDA about ADB apps and editing. Use Google search to dredge them up, put XDA at the search phase end.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] roweboat56:
beautiful. tried android 12 for a day on pixel 5.... couldn't stand it. plus Energy Ring bugged out.

I don't know what google was thinking with this one. ... so much wasted space in so many areas. and too much forced colors. and that gawd awful clock...

Here's to hoping A13 is better...
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] l7777:
You still haven't noted what package needs to be disabled. That is what he's asking.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
It depends on the variant and carrier. It's not that hard to figure out...

I have a new Dopod 838 pro. Right now, I wonder that could I update my PDA to WM6 with any shipped rom, for example: ATT rom, or the newest shipped rom...?

Please guide me to do that. Thank a lot.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] obaz:
yes

yes you can
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] veyka:
1) Flash HardSPL

2) find the rom you want from the wiki

3) flash

If you return your phone with hardSPL on it your warranty will be voided, but you can downgrade to normal SPL.]

Links/ect are in the FAQ.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] dr_tracker:
Back in the day when I got my Hermes I was like you. Then found this cool site maintained by Mr. Vanx: http://www.mrvanx.org/

In there you can read every single step needed to update your Hermes without destroying it in the process.

PD: Just a suggestion, try to update it to WM 6.1, it has a few minor but important updates, mainly threaded SMS and Office 2007.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ultramag69:
Not all WM6.1 has these things. You need to read whats in the rom . The chefs are very good at keeping you informed of whats in their work.

Make sure you Hard SPL your phone 1st as you may well end up with a brick otherwise - I'm not saying you won't anyway but at least you have a chance of recovery.

Cheers...:D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] farres:
I hope you found the answer at last and I wish you a good time flashing and playing with your device.

PS if you check the threads opened for asking your question, you will get the feeling of being spammer

enjoy flashing ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] duchoang81:
Thank you very much bros. I'll try to update my Dopod with the new AT&T rom version 3.62

Thank in advance.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] zocster:
The big question, why would you want to do that? There is a perfectly good WM6 DOPOD 838 pro ROM in the wiki? Or in my 4shared?

Edit: The ATT ROm does not have a video dialer as you know the 8525 does not have a front camera.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] muil:
I got an error at the begining of the flash, something like "too many files opened" and stop flashing. I aborted the process and now my f3 is dead, black screen, not recovery or fastboot. Windows desn't detects anything. Some help would be appreciated.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Skynet75:
I am afraid you must put your F3 in EDL mode(Google it) basically it involves shorting of two pins in the phone to activate the EDL mode, you need to remove the back panel for that. After you put your phone in edl mode it will be recognised by your pc and you can restore it from there View attachment 5439043
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] hexisg:
What have you tried to flash? Using what?
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Skynet75:
Once you put the device in EDL mode you can use a fastboot rom to reflash the device, I have done this to Mi A1 which was in similar situation as described above.

I was flashing last xiaomi.eu by fastboot
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] muil:
Thx a lot, I've been reading about edl connection but didn't find this info. My doubt now is to do this and lost my waranty or send it to SAT and asume the risk to be charged. 🤔
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Skynet75:
If it's under warranty give to the store they may repair it for free(possibly change the whole motherboard), if it's not under warranty or if they charge you with some insane amount try to go to a third party repair shop ask them to open the back panel and ask them to put it in edl mode and reflash it(if they don't know how to do it, just get the phone opened and do the other steps yourself). I am asking you to visit a third party store to open up the phone because the back panel is glass (glass is glass and glass breaks if not removed properly)
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Rstment ^m^:
In future don't flash xiaomi.eu with fastboot...

I remember reading that it overwrites critical partitions during flashing , there's a high likelihood to fk stuff up with that , use twrp instead
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] mucha.k1994:
No twrp for android 12 yet, so...
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] TormentedHeart:
Same thing happened to me last month. But i ended up fixing it. Its a pretty tricky process
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Rstment ^m^:
Don't flash ...
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] muil:
Did you jumper the EDL test points? Did you need special tools to remove the back cover?
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] muil:
Well...I flashed xiaomi.eu on this phone a cuple of times by fastboot before twrp was ready and everything went ok. The difference this time is my PC was overloaded with other tasks and the error "many files opened" I got, make me think this could be de cause.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] muil:
Finally I will send it to Xiaomi service. It looks easy the EDL method but as you say I would probably break the back cover. I'm crossing fingers to not be charged.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] noobstyle1337:
Hello I think I can help them I had the same problem

I had the Android 12 DP 5 Flashed by Munchy's Youtube channel

I had them running well until the day before yesterday but when I got up in the morning it told me that update is installed I should reboot

wtf what for update it sucked the update for the Pixel 5 and installed it I thought

ok reboot via ADB in fastboot boot ......and EDL Mode ....

then I researched and found this nice gentleman ..... I got in touch via whatsapp and the next day he did it.... it cost me 35 Euros but I think it's better than buying a new one

I give his data if someone has a problem I would try it here

https://www.unbrickmi(.)com/

I hope I could help someone else
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] muil:
But what did he do or what did you do by his guidance to fix it?
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Rstment ^m^:
@ABHIROOP90

Download telegram and message this guy .

He does it for maybe 7-10$ ...

That's what he told me at least , some users say he's legit but you'll have to pay and see for yourself.

Don't know if you can't do edl by yourself as some say you need edl authorised account

That's if you want edl... But if you open the device you'll have troubles getting warranty 100% if the edl fails for whatever reason.

I'd go and give it to warranty myself...
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] noobstyle1337:
The gentleman has an Xiaomi auth account and can do the EDL ..... I think not everyone has such an account
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] noobstyle1337:
I didn't have to open my Poco If you hang in EDL mode then you can also press 20 sec power then the Edl mode restarts and then you can flash
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] TormentedHeart:
used a laminated card to remove the backcover. didnt break it. took my time to safety get under the adhesive . for the edl test points i used a tweezer that worked fine. basically i used stuff i already had at home easily accessible
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Rstment ^m^:
Heat , you're forgetting the most important part lol.

Heat the phone at 80C long enough and the back cover can be pulled off whole without any issues....

I used to bake the phone in the oven at 80C for 10 minutes , take it out and I can pull screen or back over out whole just by attaching sucker to it and pulling gently while it's still hot. ( I don't do this anymore as I last time damaged oled screen... I don't think the heat killed it , I think placing the phone screen down on top of the metal grills did... )

Next time I'll be buying heat gun those are like 20$ , heat the back long enough then it will just slide off
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] TormentedHeart:
lol actually i removed it without using any heat lol. but ig it will help some people
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Rstment ^m^:
Your method will probably work too...

Xiaomi did shet job of manufacturing this phone... Whereas heat is a necessity for any other phone to be opened this one is falling apart by itself lol

I noticed my back cover glue starting to get undone maybe a month after the purchase...

By now the gap between is so visible that I believe just using a fingernail I'll be able to pry the cover off... The camera module is already rocking and making noise when I touch it , it most likely will fall off within a year or two...
