[General Questions and Answers] i928:
It depends on what band you can use in your area. I can use Band 2 VoLTE in SF bay area. I call H2O(ATT) to enable LTE/4G on Mate 9. I have to reset network setting to get VoLTE. You can use"Network Cell Info Lite" or "NetMonitor" to check whether you on 4G/LTE
[General Questions and Answers] James_Watson:
I have a Huawei Mate 8 with EMUI 8. But it does support VoLTE.
[General Questions and Answers] ruggb:
network cell info lite says my phone is not VoLTE capable. It is now on Android 9 and I don't find any indication of a switch to turn it on so I guess the Mate 9 is not VoLTE. But you say it is working on your Mate 9. When I talked to H2O, they had no clue and basically said my Mate 9 was not capable. That was with EMUI 8. So, Android 9 did not change anything.
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
Depending on the operator, a phone must sometimes be operator-branded and/or use operator-customised system software to be able to use VoLTE. Your subscription (incl. SIM card) must support VoLTE for the device model you're using. To inquire if your device, software, subscription and SIM card support VoLTE, contact your mobile network operator.

A phone's VoLTE capability basically doesn't depend on Android OS.
[General Questions and Answers] ruggb:
I get one support person saying it is compatible and another sayng it isn't, then another saying it is...........
[General Questions and Answers] i928:
Does Network cell info show Mate 9 on LTE H2O? if it still show LTE H2O when you make a call, that mean ATT did made a change on their side.
[General Questions and Answers] ruggb:
under GAUGE, NCI Lite shows HSPA H2O

Under STATS it shows 100% 3G

Under HISTORY it shows 3G

If I set the Preferred network mode to LTE/WCDMA/GSM auto, I don't receive calls but I can make them.

If it is set to WCDMA/GSM auto everything works both incoming and outgoing calls, text, & data.

So it appears it is only doing 3G. Why am I getting mixed messages from H2O?

I had a LTE/4G switch under EMUI 8 but it is not there under Android 9.1.

However, when I turned it on I got the same response as selecting LTE/WCDMA/GSM auto.

So, why does yours work and mine does not??????????
[General Questions and Answers] i928:
Here what happened to me when I call.

operator: there is no LTE support for Mate 9

I: Someone use ATT and has Mate 9 support LTE.

Operator: ok, let me work on it. It set, reboot your phone, it should work. Reset network settings if it does not work.

what I did

1. reboot, H2O still uses 3G when I made calls

2. Reset network settings, and reboot. H2O on 4G LTE when I make calls.
[General Questions and Answers] ruggb:
When I had set it to LTE (in 8 or 9), I could make calls but I could not receive calls.

So, you can make AND receive calls?

My network settings are:

H2O INTERNET

PRODATA

MMSC = http://mmsc.mobile.att.net

MMS proxy = proxy.mobile.att.net

APN type = defult,mms,supl

APN protocol = IPv4

Does that match yours?
[General Questions and Answers] i928:
Almost, I have MMS port 80

Try

1. Call H2O to provision VoLTE

2. Reset NETWORK SETTINGS. This step clear APN setting too, enter APN setting after reset, reboot
[General Questions and Answers] ruggb:
Yes, my MMS is also port 80. So, by your experience, H2O has not provisioned VoLTE for my phone. I will try calling them one more time.

What is your Preferred network mode, LTE/WCDMA/GSM auto, or WCDMA/GSM auto?

Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] i928:
LTE/WCDMA/GSM auto

you need to perform step 2 after provider setup on their side.
[General Questions and Answers] ruggb:
I will give them a call in the AM. Thanks

If I set mine to that, I do not rcv any calls.

Everything else works.

[Honor 9X Questions & Answers] BeChris100:
I've been trying to unlock the Bootloader for this day and seems that my Honor 9X (4 GB RAM, 128 GB Storage with one SIM and one SD Card Slot) can't get past the bootloader unlock. Since I wanted to change the ROM due to upcoming Harmony OS Update that might happen anytime. Plus, it would be easier for me if there was an official TWRP Support, but even the creators behind the project does not even offer an official build for it.

I am not an expert at coding the TWRP for my device itself, and I am not a Windows User since I changed the primary OS to Linux (to Ubuntu 20.04). Can't install HiSuite (even with wine, for some reason) and even with an unlock code, I cannot unlock the bootloader.

Here is what I tried so far:

Reboot the device into the Bootloader by using ADB (my easiest way)

Check if Fastboot recognized the device

Ran fastboot flashing unlock, fastboot oem unlock (my short unlock code), fastboot oem unlock

Restarted Fastboot multiple times using fastboot reboot-bootloader

For every command, Fastboot showed me either "invalid command" or "command not allowed". I don't know if I am doing anything wrong, but for some reason, Fastboot gives me an error if there is some command included with the words "oem" or "flash(-ing)". Tried wiping user data and cache with Fastboot and even this is a problem. Any command that might manipulate my phone won't let me perform the task that I want my phone to do.

Is my phone bootloader protected, or what is the issue that I cannot unlock it nor modify any contents?

I might address that using ADB from Recovery is not an option from me. Starting recovery (from ADB and the boot combination) and checking with ADB if the device is found. Nothing. Going into eRecovery changed only a bit, but ADB recognized my device this time. When my phone is in eRecovery, ADB finds the device, but it is unauthorized, meaning I cannot perform any tasks. If I don't get to know what this issue is causing, then I'll throw my phone out of the window.

[Magisk] nschrader:
Hello,

today I tried installing Magisk on my Pixel 2, but failed by the skin of my teeth. I followed these instructions: https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html.

I used https://pypi.org/project/payload-dumper/ to extract `boot.img` from my installed LOS build (https://download.lineageos.org/walleye). Patching it with the Magisk app worked fine too, but then impossible to boot the new image. The G logo appears, then the LOS charging animation and then nothing... (but the animation keeps moving). I reflashed the vanilla boot image and the device boots just fine.

No success on getting the kernel messages, I guess some preparation I don't know about would be needed:

```

walleye:/ $ cat /proc/last_kmsg > /sdcard/last_kernel_message_log.txt

cat: /proc/last_kmsg: No such file or directory

1|walleye:/ $ dmesg > /sdcard/kernel_boot_log.txt

dmesg: klogctl: Permission denied

1|walleye:/ $ sudo dmesg > /sdcard/kernel_boot_log.txt

/system/bin/sh: sudo: inaccessible or not found

127|walleye:/ $ cat /dev/kmsg

cat: /dev/kmsg: Permission denied

```

Am I out of options, or are there more ways I can try for the boot image?
[Huawei P20 Lite Questions & Answers] joenuts2124:
Usually, when you relock the bootloader, you type in the command to relock it, with the bl unlock code, and boom it relocks it and wipes system with no issue.

With my device, it doesn't do that. It instead, spits out an error message saying "remote: 'root type is risk'".

I have gone into eRecovery, and downloaded latest version and recovery.

I have also tried to use the dload method, with no success, with dload telling me that the update failed.

I have flashed recovery and eRecovery stock images extracted from an UPDATE.app I found somewhere.

Would anyone know what is happening??
[Huawei P20 Lite Questions & Answers] -Alf-:
it's not that simple bro...

The bootloader status will not be lock, but relock. For apps like Google pay, it's like an unlocked bootloader. Only the Service firmware locks BL normally and correctly .

Do not forget that you should not joke with relock procedure. Must be full stock, (your situation is clearly not the same), otherwise you may end up with a nice paperweight.

Hello there,

I had previously flashed CrDroid and TWRP on my Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 (ginkgo) and everything was fine, until I decided I was going to be the biggest dumbass a run fastboot oem lock. System and recovery is gone and I am instead presented with the system has been destroyed dialog. Bootloader is fine. I am now unable to obviously flash anything because the bootloader is locked. I tried a couple of things:

1) fastboot oem unlock and fastboot flashing unlock

FAILED (remote: 'Token Verify Failed, Reboot the device

')

fastboot: error: Command failed

2) fastboot flashing get_unlock_ability

(bootloader) get_unlock_ability: 1

OKAY [ 0.001s]

Finished. Total time: 0.001s

3) fastboot oem device-info

(bootloader) Verity mode: true

(bootloader) Device unlocked: false

(bootloader) Device critical unlocked: false

(bootloader) Charger screen enabled: true

OKAY [ 0.001s]

Finished. Total time: 0.001s

To me I need to unlock the bootloader, but since system is gone, I am not able to activate the xiaomi account to unlock it. What are my options? What can I do about it? I have another Redmi Note 8, can I use it to actiave the account to unlock the bootloader? I am going to be glad for any advice I get, I honestly need that phone. Thank you very much for any help.

I tried to root my phone by magisk.

After flashing a patched boot.img, it's failed to boot into system and I got a message that "the device need factory reset". I clicked yes and everything seems ok,I can boot into system. Then I tried to flash img again. So I boot into bootloader. Unfortunately, this time I got a black screen. The phone doesn't response me anymore.

I tried the software repair in xperia companion but It cannot dected my phone when I hold on volume down and plugged in it. I also tried hold on volume up + power but nothing happened. Hold on power key also no response. The led light always black, only become red when I connect it to my pc.

What should I so now and what's my phone's status? I searched something about 9008 mode and edl but I don't know how to check whether my phone is really turn into that status, my pc cannot dect my phone.

Try to switch the phone off; then just plug it into your PC without holding the Vol- key. It has happenned a couple of times with me that the phone does not want to boot up, with attempts to get it into FLASH mode by holding the key down throwing more confusion into the mix.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] RF Junkey:
I think there is a low battery protection. Make sure the phone is charged up. Keeps the device from death during a flash.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Evil_Sephiroth:
Red led mean a very low battery. Keep it plugged (not to PC but to power adapter) for 2-3 hours and then try again a force reset.

Never, never try flash or other stuff under 50% battery

Also force restart is keep pressed vol+ and power button (or vol- and power button) till you fell a vibration.

Try this after a good charge
[Sony Xperia 1 III] kevinmcmurtrie:
It might require experimenting with service modes and different chargers. I had an early Xperia 1 III that bootlooped while charging after setting up the fingerprint reader. It seems that charging is disabled during booting. It has to finish or enter a service/fault mode.

[Sony Xperia 1 III] Rakesh1b:
I feel sorry for you brother...such a nice device...OK let's talk what happened, the state now your device is in is called hardbrick and it had a corrupted bootloader or no boot loader, but your device is still alive, in your PC in device manager it lists as Qs USB mode with some number after it like qsusb9008...now this device can only be brought to life with the help of a blankflash file which can flash your boot loader in snapdragon service mode...actually no snapdragon can be hardbricked permanently now you need appropriate blankflash file for your device.. Please don't open the device if some repairmen suggests to do JTAG nothing is necessary all you need is blankflash file which is shared to only Sony testers groups.... Who tests ROMs before release and they hardbrick so they share those files to them.... Please don't loose hope....it takes time but certainly it can be bought back to life... And dont try any flashing utility as there is no functional boot loader on it now and nothing will work...Sony won't provide that for sure and they will say then can only solve by mother board replacement ,don't believe therm your device is perfect it only needs blankflash file as it entered into final safe mode...

[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] alex_bb:
I would like to find out if there is any possibility to put a password to turn off the device. Let me explain: in my lg g8s I could encrypt the mobile and that way when I turned it off, it asked me for a password, if not it wouldn't turn off. In the rog phone 5 it comes encrypted from the factory and I don't know how to put that password.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] yurishouse:
if you try to turn the phone off without unlocking the screen it'll prompt you to enter passwd iirc

The phone comes already encrypted out of the factory using FBE.

other than that I don't think there's a option (stock anyways) to prompt password on power off.

[Magisk] hstroph:
Greetings, I've been attempting for several days to execute "su" from adb shell. Essentially, Magisk 24.3 is properly installed within Android 12 on a Google Pixel 6. My primary purpose for rooting is to add my LAN entries to /system/etc/hosts.

An androidforums.com thread details the steps taken several times.

I would very much appreciate your help in getting "su" to work in Android 12 on a Pixel 6. No such problem occurred in Android 8.2 on a Nexus 6P.

Spoiler content hidden.
[Magisk] manjaroid:
I think what you are facing is less about su rights and privileges and more about modern versus legacy partitioning and file systems. See this StackExchange Q&A, in particular the second answer about a hosts file solution.

But instead of mounting /system in Android 12, which is more hardened than 10 and 11, a safer method would involve systemless hosts courtesy of Magisk. One issue with that, though, is that most people use systemless hosts for block lists that redirect in bulk to 127.0.0.0 or 0.0.0.0. Adding friendly host names and IPs gets tricky because ad blocking apps like Adaway tend to overwrite when updating, although Adaway's whitelisting option may do the trick. I've never tried it.

I'm in a similar boat since jumping from Android 9 to 12 when I bought a Pixel 6. Eventually I'd like to use my Pixel for accessing a localhost web server. Until a better idea comes along I'll either use my old Pie phone for local browsing or simply publish to the www server (for testing layouts and responsiveness, etc.). I haven't gotten serious about it yet but I'm interested in any method that doesn't involve /system modifications or reconfiguring my router.
[Magisk] hstroph:
Thank you, that got me excited as termux allowed a root prompt. "mount -o rw,remount /" executed, the vi alias was created, but "vi /system/etc/hosts" informed me that the file was read-only.

Not sure what to do next, but again, thank you.
[Magisk] manjaroid:
We need to approach our hosts files differently than was possible with Oreo or Pie. The path with least resistance will be Magisk's built-in systemless hosts module. Mounting /system as rw may have worked for Android 10 or 11, but 12 is stricter and messing with anything on /system could cause a cascade of problems.

Also, the /system partition dynamically stays full despite usage reported in Settings/Storage, so there's no elbow room for even the smallest change and you might even see out of space errors if not read-only errors.

What to try? I don't have a good answer yet, only ideas. I will be looking into it and am happy to report back. Hopefully somebody smarter than me will chime in.
[Magisk] hstroph:
Thank you for your interest and efforts.
