[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SubwayChamp:
Do you mean you tried something like this? https://www.gizdev.com/twrp-root-lenovo-z6-youth/ running the bootloader_unlock.bat? What does unlock_bootloader.img do?

Try with these commands apart to know the bootloader status

fastboot oem device-infoor fastboot getvar unlocked

Maybe you can try with simple commands to unlock it, in case you are wrong and the OEM doesn't care bootloader being unlocked:

fastboot oem unlock or fastboot oem unlock-go or

fastboot flashing unlock You should enable USB debugging and OEM unlock toggle must be available under this section, otherwise neither of those will work.

And if this device totattly rebranded from the Z6 Lite, or it has a MediaTek processor?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlNexus:
When I try those commands it just says "Waiting for device..." and there's nothing on my phone. The FastBoot screen is identical to the Z6 Lite one. And the device is totally rebranded apparently, maybe something there and here, but it has the same CPU, RAM and storage.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SubwayChamp:
OK, we're just trying to figure it out if your device can be really unlocked or not, so you need to walk through these steps to be sure.

"Waiting for device..." means that your device is not being detected, you need to install properly the fastboot drivers for Lenovo otherwise you can´t do what you need, the first step is this. With your device on, enable USB debugging in developer options, and unlock OEM toggle, when you enabled USB debugging you will see a pop-up message asking for "allow always", then tap on it.

As per to know if the model is identical you should download an app from Google Play, something like Device Info and see the specs, if this device has MediaTek instead of Qualcomm there could be a workaround.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlNexus:
I installed the drivers. Here is the output of the 3 commands:

PS C:\Users\alnexus> fastboot oem unlock
...
FAILED (remote: unknown command)
finished. total time: 0.001s
PS C:\Users\alnexus> fastboot oem unlock-go
...
FAILED (remote: unknown command)
finished. total time: 0.002s
PS C:\Users\alnexus> fastboot flashing unlock
...
FAILED (remote: unknown command)
finished. total time: 0.001s

It says "unlocked: no". Also it is Qualcomm, SDM710.

EDIT: Yeah it's probably impossible to unlock. Damn it, why do companies do this? Lock us in this crappy system and we can't even install another OS? I bought the phone, let me do whatever I want with it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SubwayChamp:
And is there an OEM unlock toggle? If not or even being one, if OEM doesn't want to be unlocked there’s not much to do.

And what happen running the unlock.bat from the Z6 lite now that you installed properly the fastboot drivers?

Also check what is in the unlock.bat script, open it with Notepad++ and see which command is executed.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlNexus:
Yes, there is an OEM unlock toggle. I enabled it.

Great idea, I'll try that, but my hopes are absolutely 0.

Here's the UNLOCK BOOTLOADER.bat (unlock.bat) script content:

When I try using that it just hangs on "downloading 'boot.img"...

Should I wait?

When I tried fastboot flash recovery twrp.img it said sending 'recovery' and said FAILED (remote: Requested download size is more than max allowed)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlNexus:
it seems that sometimes when I try using "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" it just "restarts" the phone. The phone goes to a splash screen and it says in the top corner "press any key to shutdown" and disconnects from the computer. "fastboot boot" just hangs on downloading 'boot.img'.

Oops, that just happened with fastboot boot too.

View attachment 5458129 and it showed the splash screen with "press any key to shutdown" in the corner
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SubwayChamp:
You also could try fastboot flashing unlock_critical

First, be sure to get the firmware at hands, in case something goes wrong.

Regards the TWRP version, are you sure it is for your device?

Maybe you need to port from the Z6 Lite, making minimal changes.

In a different approach, you could patch your boot image with Magisk and flash it to the boot partition.

"Too many links..." error is probably that you have attached to your PC more than one Android device/emulator/USB hub or something, check that, end the process with adb kill-server and restart again with adb start-server or go straight to the command, ADB will start automatically.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlNexus:
I'll try that. I don't know how to port but I don't think it should be too hard. Thanks for the tips, I'll also try to patch my boot image.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlNexus:
View attachment 5458349

Patching the boot image doesn't work either. Stuck on "sending 'recovery' forever. I had also gotten

fastboot flash recovery magisk_patched.img
Sending 'recovery' (65536 KB) FAILED (remote: 'unknown command')
fastboot: error: Command failed

before. I'll try with another USB cable. Wonder if it could be the drivers; I have already installed the device drivers from Google and Lenovo.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlNexus:
I had a different output on Linux, but Magisk App doesn't say "Installed".

View attachment 5458365

EDIT: I tried to flash "twrp.img" (I know it's dangerous without a backup) and it said the same thing, except the phone doesn't seem to have TWRP installed.

It says finished but nothing actually happens or changes in the phone.

EDIT 2: When I try fastboot boot recovery.img it says FAILED (remote: 'unknown command')
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SubwayChamp:
I guess you patched it the boot image from your stock ROM, then it is to flash it to the boot partition, not to the recovery partition, the usage would be fastboot flash boot patchedboot.img this is to achieve root, if rooted you could do more things.

I'm assuming that you opened the fastboot commands from within the directory where there are the images files.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlNexus:
Yes, I did.

You saved my day. Thanks a lot, I got it rooted by using fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img. Having root is infinitely better than having nothing.

I should mark the whole topic as "solved" now. Thanks so much

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Deleted member 11895629:
Hi All,

I'm back on XDA after sometime away and it's good to be back.

I've bought a Pixel 6 Pro a couple of days ago and have now spent a while setting it up.

The problem is that any USB stick, hard drive or any other other connections do not show any files. I've reformatted the drives I've used and recopied the file again, still nothing works. I've also tried a number of cables just to be sure. Anyway, I also tried connecting the phone directly to my computer which ptly works. what happens is that it fails and crashes half way through. Also the files that have been copied over cannot be used, they are corrupted some how.

If any can please help in anyway, I would appreciate it.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Hello! And welcome back. I know what it's like - I was hardly active for the last five years, and especially the last few of those.

What format did you choose for the flash drive? FAT32 will be the only one to work with the Pixel out of the box, but you can buy exFAT/NTFS for USB by Paragon Software (you can also buy support for some other formats through the same app) in order to be able to use the more efficient ExFAT with the Pixel. I've resisted buying this app for quite a long time but there are hardly any apps I want to spend my Google Opinion Rewards on anymore, so I finally paid for the biggest bundle of all the formats available in the app. It works fine. I prefer to use it through X-Plore File Manager, but you can use it with Paragon's file manager of choice or probably almost any good file manager.

Google would have to pay Microsoft royalties to use their ExFAT (or NTFS), and I figure they're just saying to themselves that there's no way they're going to pay MS for anything related to Android. :) That's my guess, anyway.

Samsung (and maybe some others) pay for ExFAT support on their phones, but I'd take the Pixel's software over Samsung's any day - we hated our most recent Samsungs.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Deleted member 11895629:
Hi roirraW,

Thank you very much for the infomation. What you mention now makes sense because I didn't think what and how I'd previously transfered files from one device to another would now go wrong. I will find a way using the Fat32 format. At the moment, I am using the exFat format. Thanks again for your help.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
You're welcome! I'm glad it was something easy.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Deleted member 11895629:
Hi roirraW,

The Fat32 didn't work for me. I formatted a 32gb SDcard and used an adapter to connect to my Pixel 6 Pro. Again the file transfer from computer was fine but once again when I plugged it in the files would not show up again. Any other advice, please.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
That's...interesting. When you formatted it FAT32, did you use anything other than the default allocation unit size (16 kib for 32 GB)? If using Windows, did you choose the option to "Safely Remove" the SD card after you were done copying files to it? If no to either, try a do-over as appropriate. Use default allocation unit size, or 16 kib if specifying a particular size, and make sure and choose the option to safely remove it after you get done copying the files.

I just tested with a spare 32 GB Micro SD card. I formatted it fresh in Windows as FAT32 with the default allocation unit size, which turned out to be 16 kib. I then loaded it up with files, safely removed it, physically removed the adapter from the computer, connected the adapter to the P6P and in X-plore File Manager I was able to see my files on the MicroSD card just fine.

One thing I did notice because at first I had that Paragon app I had installed, is that the Paragon app popped up and wanted me to tell it to mount the card through the app - without which no file manager would see it. I temporarily uninstalled the app to replicate your situation, and then just as I described, I was able to simply connect the adapter to the phone and I could see the files through the file manager.

If you installed the Paragon app or anything similar, uninstall it if you're not going to pay for it and use it.

Note that it's also best to tell Android to Eject the MicroSD card when you're done with it on the phone as well.

Maybe you have some app installed that's interfering, such as Paragon's app was deliberately interfering for me at first? I can't imagine anything else in particular except to ask what file manager you're using and if you've tried any others? The Pixel's built-in file manager should have no trouble seeing the card too, but if it's giving you trouble, try X-plore File Manager and see if there's any difference.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Deleted member 11895629:
Thanks again for your response. Basically everything you mentioned above, I did exactly. I didn't understand the additional apps like Paragon so I skipped that part. I use FX Explorer which I have relied on for years. However, I did try at least six other explorers and unfortunately with thes ame outcome. Maybe I changed something in the settings which may have caused this issue for me. I'll try X-plorer and see if that makes a difference. If not, I'll probaly hard reset the phone as a last resort. Thanks for your help again.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Wow. I'm really sorry to hear. I hope you find the solution. Please let us know your progress or if you do factory reset and it solves it.

Question: do you have other MicroSD cards? Any other adapters? Any regular USB flash (thumb) drives? I just remembered my brother very recently had a very similar issue and the problem was the actual two cards were bad. Other cards he used worked normally.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Deleted member 11895629:
I have tried other memory cards.

[General Questions and Answers] Nacrim:
Kia ora!

I have an old chinese smartphone (Nomu s10) and I found an apparently working Havoc OS version for it ( https://www.getdroidtips.com/havoc-os-nomu-s10/ ).

So I tried installing it through TWRP:

- USB debugging was originally activated

- I installed all the drivers (I can see the phone on Windows USB connection & Device manager does not give any yellow errors)

- I unlocked the bootloader via ADB and freeboot

- TWRP 3.0.2 by Jemmini was already installed as I was using a Lineage variation before.

- I formatted via freeboot via TWRP

- I formatted the /data to ext2 and then ext4 via TWRP

So I installed the Havoc zip via TWRP. Then Open Gapps pico as well. And I reboot into "system", but it does not work. It simply always goes back to TWRP.

PLUS:

Now I see that my phone storage shows up as 100% empty (in TWRP and on PC connection).

So where did I go wrong? What else do I need to do?

Any help would be great, as I am already a bit lost with it :(.

Thank you!

Nac
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
Plainly, I don't think the ROM is for your device. Take a look what's inside the zip, go to the META-INF, open the updater-script, in newer firmware it could there in update-binary (too much), see what device is built for.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] djp2k18:
I have recently purchased the X3 Pro & have used MIUI in the past, but not since I had it very briefly on my official Poco. I found today when using my Skullcandy ear buds (with the X3 in my pocket), that the Bluetooth connection kept dropping & then would reconnect. The buds & phone were only about 100cm or so away from each other.

Has anyone else found an issue with the Bluetooth connection or have any tips on how to hopefully fix this issue?

The ear buds are not an issue when I've used them on my Mi 9T Pro on a custom ROM.

Hi,

I'm currently working with a developer on his app that connects one BT device to the phone (a Samsung S10) to take the input, configure the received data in the app and then push it out for consumption for another app on a separate BT device. So basically turning the S10 into a BT Hub for that purpose. Apparently this works on some other android phones but i can't get it to work on the S10. It works as an input device but once i make it visible to the end device, the input stops recording properly - i'm assuming it's getting into a muddle at this point. Any suggestions on how to get this to work?

[Huawei Developers] piratekbg:
Hi everyone,

I'm totally new here, I just installed the app a couple of hours ago and I'm pleasantly suprised by it. It's an awesome feature.

I immediately setup the function to start my flashlight, since I use the light a lot, sometimes with somewhat dirty hands and it has always been extremely annoying to touch my screen with unclean hands.

However, I noticed right away that it will be inevitable that the flashlight will start unwillingly by itself in my pocket or like at the moment while writing this proposal.

Long story short (too late for that), I think that a feature to disable the light automatically after some time that's preset by the user is crucial in order to maintain battery life. E.g. I set the timer to 60 seconds, this way when the flashlight turns on without the knowledge of the user it will turn itself off after one minute. Of course this will be a problem when the user wants the light to be on for more than a minute, however in order to sort this out, the app could determine if the phone is locked, thus eliminating the possibility to ruin desired usage.

Hope that helps and I really hope to see such a feature in future version of this awesome program!

Thanks to everyone on the team - amazing idea!

Regards,

Boris
