[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] GOHIL98:
Hi Guys,

My Mi11x warranty expired on 29 April, 2022.

On 25 May while my phone was in charging (using company provided charger) it became dead so I tried turning it on using Fast boot mode but no it became physically dead. So I visited MI service centre they opened the device and told me the motherboard is dead (no reason given) they gave me cost estimation of 22000rs for motherboard replacement for a 30000rs device.

After searching online this seems to be a problem in Mi11 series specially in China (I'll attach the article) So when I contacted MI India service on twitter with this article and some other proof they admitted this is their fault and they can only pay 50% of cost so rest 11000rs I have to pay which I can't afford.

So I wanted to know has this thing happened to anyone from this group or elsewhere who owns this device and is there any practical and affordable solution to this. Please guide me.

Thanks.

Some Mi service centres have the nasty habit of diagnosing phones not booting as a dead motherboard.

My advice will be to get the offer in writing from the service centre and try replacing the battery first at your own cost. Had a Mi3 (the first phone from Mi India) and they were asking for Rs 9k in 2019 for motherboard for a phone that cost 14k in 2013. I replaced the battery from a street vendor and worked well till I bricked it a while back.

Best case your phone comes back to life. Worst case you'll still be in current position ....

Yes brother . Same thing happened to me also. On aug 31st night my phone also got same problem , while charging time it automatically switched off , I tried to turn on but it’s not turning on, it’s just vibrating only. I went to mi service center, he is telling water damage ,mother board short, need to change mother board it’s cost 23,800 rupees. I don’t know what to do. I visite Every repair shop in my city. They don’t know what is the problem with device. After 10 days I purchased new phone .
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] febry_valdy:
since your warranty is ended, I'd like you to visit your local phone shop that can repair your dead mobo, I am pretty sure that the cpu need to be reballled again cos many cases of deadboot alioth and the fix is by reballing the cpu, about the price might be various as here in indonesia we have many phone service shop and the price they charge is differs from one to another, like from 20 us dollars the lowest one and the highest one is around 70 us dollars. my recommendation is to pick the best phone shop service in your area cos it is very risky task to do and very easy to make the cpu worse even dies. good luck.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Rstment ^m^:
Nah this is not worth fixing, most likely dead motherboard ...

What happens is xiaomi and other cheapo brands ship out phones with disaster charge chips, they fail very very often and when they fail they take out the whole phone with it!

(poco x3 literally has groups with thousands of dead phone images)

This is why I keep saying not to use charging controll apps, the chip inside the phone is very buggy. It often gets corrupted after using those kind of apps...

If you encounter this save your money and buy phone from a better brand, to fix this you'd at least have to replace charge chip, maybe battery too...

0 guarantee that it'll work afterwards
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] febry_valdy:
poco x3 pro to be exact, phones that many cases of deadboot due to soldering ball on cpu or ram melted (maybe due to excessive heat), even expensive gaming phone like rog 3 and rog 5 faced such issue, so one of the worth to try solution worth to try is to reball the cpu or ram (since both are in the same exact place which is stacked one another), and also I could say many of them are alive again after doing as such.

but,

if you have quite money I'd like to recommend to buy a better phone, if you wanna use ximi to be able to taste custom rom, then I would like to recommend mi series or even redmi note series, just dont go for poco series.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Rstment ^m^:
Many of them die shortly after the reball, it's not much of fix at all ... Unless you can replace the underfill with some proper quality stuff, and stiffen the board with some proper coatings to prevent further board flex the cpu will get detached again.

99.9% of the shops don't do this, and even gpu repair specialists rely on using leaded solder only... While this is usually fine for a PC repair since the components don't get tossed around everyday, you can see why it wouldn't hold long inside a cellphone

And all of this assumes that the CPU is the issue, not the charge chip...

Phone died during charging, I'd put my money on the chip kicking the bucket... but who knows maybe it's as you say and the cpu got detached from all the heat

Hey everyone

I am working on a dual boot Ubuntu Touch, Droidian (mobian-hybris) setup without breaking either of the systems. I have figured everything out on how everything should work and modifications that need to be done to the recovery image but there is one question that i do not have an answer for but here is some information but how things work.

So right now Ubuntu Touch uses a customized version of LineageOS recovery to do OTA updates. and is when installed it replaces androids rootfs. Then we have Droidian which uses a rootfs.img file as its rootfs which is mounted at boot as a loop device. (file is placed in /data)

They use different kernels because they have different ramdisks (obviously). My plan is to write a desktop file in both OSes to create a file to let recovery know to flash the right kernel (kernels will be placed under /data aswell no space limitations). I have the recovery and desktop file code mostly ready the only remaining thing is the command to flash a kernel.img/boot.img file to the device (Redmi Note 9S)

I know that LineageOS does not have a terminal all of the flashing tasks will be done by a script which checks which kernel should be flashed.

Is there some documentation on this? Because TWRP can do the same and TWRP is just a GUI on top of the android shell with some added functionality for backups and such.

Any response is appreciated.
[General Topics] FakeShell:
Answering my question as the answer was just too dumb but for some reason i could not figure it out.

dd can be used like a regular linux machine

dd if=/data/boot.img of=/dev/block/platform/soc/by-name/boot

Closing down
[General Topics] RFZ:
I kinda had the same issue here: https://xdaforums.com/t/flash-boot-img-using-twrp-openrecoveryscript.4301279/#post-85681605

I remember that I read somewhere / was told actually not to use /dev/block/platform/soc/by-name/boot (which is a symlink) but the actual device path the symlink resolves to with dd.

I'm not sure what the reasoning was though. I'd like to mention this here, maybe someone knows why.

well, honestly, There is no possible way to exchange the processor in the Wizard, However you can you a old program for windows mobile phones called "Omap clock" This will allow you to overclock the Wizard from 195 MHz to 240 MHz or so, not a super difference in speed but to me it makes the difference between using the device, or just upgrading to another.

Hello, my mother have a mi 8 lite.

It was discharging very fast and charging very slowly.

I tought it was battery and replaced with a new one.

It now discharge normally, but still charge very slow.

So my guess is that the charging circuit is dead, which killed the old battery too.

Do you know if I replace just the charging connector circuit, that could fix the issue ?

[About XDA developers] shadowline:
Seeing many crowded threads in the development and hacking forum get overrun by people asking the same question over and over again, not to mention the ones that will never get it to work right because they don't read that certain programs are not fully functional or still being worked on. I have come up with a new idea to ease the pain on developers and make certain areas less crowded.

I was thinking that there should be two areas in development and hacking, one is the pre-release/beta software that is work in progress. And the other is the released software that is fully functional not counting occasional updates.

Both forums could have the first post as a type of 'sticky' that is viewable if you are just on page 1, or all the way on page 552, with an option to hide it to save screen space.

Also the released software (and maybe even beta) should have a sort of, formatting guideline enforced by a moderator of that forum.

Something along the lines of;

__________________

You get the general idea, of course it could vary slightly depending on the application.

Of course it is all based on theory and could be changed depending on the needs of the moderators or developers. But I do believe that it could help cut down on the amount of useless question posts, and also help organization and make it easier to find and search for.

Edit:

Another off the wall idea is another subforum just for requests and dev ideas. Could help clean up those posts/threads too.
[About XDA developers] joel2009:
problems with this is that PEOPLE DON't READ, its a good idea but would require a lot of time from moderators and admin.

No matter how well orginized something is though people are just lazy sometimes, everything you have requested people already put in the first post describing the program.
[About XDA developers] shadowline:
Yes, that is true. But sometimes it helps cut down on what i like to call 'stupid posting' where all they read is the title. And they will tell you even in marketing, people don't read. So there really is no getting past that. Just ways to make the skimmers and question happy people take a second thought to reading the first post, and only if the first post has enough useful information in it.

[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] PhotonIce:
Anyways, first look for a guide to unlock your bootloader, that's the first step.

Next, learn how to flash twrp onto your device.

Lastly learn how to flash custom roms onto your device via twrp. Custom roms can be found in your device's dev forum here on xda.

You'll need a pc, the right drivers, minimal adb and fastboot (or odin), and the required files (twrp, custom rom, gapps)
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] PhotonIce:
Also, you've posted this into the wrong subforum. This subforum is for rom development, it's where devs post roms. If you want to ask a question or need help then ask in the Q/A subforum.

[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] igoigo:
Dear comunity,

I really need your help with this. I have a OP6T and finally updated to the android 11. Before the update, I removed magisk (it was giving me some errors from time to time and I wasn't using the root for anything) through TWRP and then I just updated to the latest OOS through OTA. Everything went smoothly until today, when I went to a store and tried to pay using google pay an error appeared and it seems I have no longer the device certified by the play protect.

What did I miss during the update? Is there any workaround?

Thank you in advance!
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Brettroth:
I would try wiping and installing the latest oos through twrp instead of ota
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] igoigo:
I just did this to have everything stock again. Since I installed via OTA, didn't I loose the twrp recovery? Wiping are you referring to a complete clean install? I'm not quite prepared for that :|
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Brettroth:
I don't understand why it would not be certified after ota update. You can try uninstalling updates for play services and play store maybe that will help. Or there might be magisk files that persisted. Could try to root with magisk again and uninstall it using the magisk app. Just ideas for ya cause I really don't know for sure. But I do know for sure even with stock oos you can still boot a twrp and use it even if you dont make it permanent. So you could use twrp to delete magisk or anything that would be throwing off the safety net. Could also try a safety net checking app to narrow down the problem depending if it passes or not. I just suggested clean install because there may be conflicting device names or whatever from going from custom to ota update. Hope it helps
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] igoigo:
Thank you for the suggestions. I installed root checker and it didn't detect any root. I was thinking on installing again TWRP to then install/uninstall magisk. But I can try to check the safety net, its strange indeed, I have everything working without any problems, even the google or bank apps.

When I uninstalled magisk I had to do it through TWRP because my magisk manager that was in "hide mode" woulnd't open because it was constantly crashing. As you said, probably there is some remnant files from magisk left.

EDIT: I run the safety checker and it found a problem with "CTS profile matched", any idea what is this?
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Brettroth:
Basically has 2 different ID's probably from going custom to ota update. That's why I suggested clean install. Anytime going from one rom to another clean install is needed.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] igoigo:
@Brettroth the thing is, I was/am in the stock rom, the only thing I had "custom" was the magisk (which I uninstalled before update) and TWRP recovery :|
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Brettroth:
Sorry I thought you were on custom
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Brettroth:
You should be able to just dirty flash the oos from twrp then. Should fix any mismatched id's

I will try the dirty flash through twrp

[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Brettroth:
Yeah it should. The other twrp should have worked also with a11. You might have corrupted your data. Probably need to wipe data by typing yes to fix.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] igoigo:
How can I have corrupted my data by just flashing the recovery? Can't I flash the stock boot.img?

EDIT:

I was able to flash the stock boot.img and everything is working now. Starting again, what do you suggest, boot TWRP and then instal zip and flash OOS+TWRP? My problem is, which TWRP version should I boot and flash, since the one I tested gave this problem.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Fuseless:
Hi, my case is a bit different as i havent used magisk and i have a difderent phone, but my solution to "device is not play store certified" which was showing in play store, about section was as follows:

Enable Developper mode (setting/about/software info/click 7 times or so on "build number")

A developer menu appears in settings at the bottom, within it i disabled "OEM Unlocking".

Restarted phone checked, was still not certified, cleared data for "google play services" and "google play store", restarted, and voila.
