Recovery: With the device powered off and usb unplugged, hold Volume Down + Power. When the LG logo appears, release both buttons and hold Volume Up + Volume Down.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ninjadev64:
Ok, so I got into a factory reset screen that way, I said yes to factory reset, is that the right thing to do? (@DvineLord)
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ninjadev64:
ADB recognises the device, but it's unauthorised. And I obviously can't boot it up to authorise it.

Factory reset just got me back to the LG screen for a long time, so I powered it off again.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ninjadev64:
Also, when I try to change the COM port to 41, when I click Advanced in Port Settings, it just stops me with "You must have write privileges in the registry for this device in order to modify the device's advanced settings".

I can't find the right path for the device in regedit to follow these steps: https://forums.techguy.org/threads/need-write-permission-for-com1-port.577543/#post-4756991
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DvineLord:
Were you able to get into Recovery? or did you get into Bootloader/Fastboot/Download?

Bootloader/Fastboot/Download: With the device powered off, hold Volume Up and connect the USB cable.

You want to be in Recovery like I posted above. Do you have TWRP on your device?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ninjadev64:
The recovery method you said to try got me into a factory reset screen, as I stated. All the other recovery methods I saw online didn’t work, so maybe I have no recovery?

I said in the original post that I can obtain download mode. I recognise “TWRP” but I’m pretty sure I botched it up while installing it, because I didn’t know how any of this worked, 4 years ago.

Thank you!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DvineLord:
Unfortunate you can't get ADB/Fastboot working.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ninjadev64:
Soo... what can I do?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DvineLord:
Try to recall as closely as possible the exact steps you used to modify your device. autorec, ioroot, stump root, avicohh, stock build you were on, custom rom you tried to flash, custom recovery, bootstacks, custom kernel, etc.

Odds are you'll have to try again to flash back to stock, something which I haven't done yet.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ninjadev64:
Unfortunately all I know is that I tried to install a custom ROM, scuffed up when I was installing twrp, the ROM didn't work and now I have no recovery to fix it. Flash back to stock *is* what I'm trying to do (that's your third question/point which I've already explained in the original post).

If anyone with the same problem visits this in the future, please save this post and share your solution if you find one, cause I'm still stuck!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DvineLord:
hope you get it flashed back to stock. make sure to do the first 5 things i listed in my initial post to see if that helps you flash back to stock. the data cable can also make a difference sometimes too.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ninjadev64:
I fixed it! I also wrote a tutorial on how in case anyone else has the same issue.

@ninjadev64 , are you going to give flashing a custom rom another try!?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ninjadev64:
Well, I've had a look at flashing LineageOS 18.1. I might do it for fun someday but this phone is quite obsolete and I only messed around with it in the first place because I didn't have a phone of my own at the time. I have updated it to stock 5.0.2 and rooted it, though. I've also installed a custom ROM on my own phone recently and I'm loving it.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] AgentLoneStar007:
Hi. So this is my first post. I read through the rules and How to Post section, and I'm doing my best to keep the rules. So if I did something wrong, sorry. Also, this is a mix of questions:

I am totally new to modifying a phone's software. I daily drive EndeavorOS on my PC and laptop, so I have experience with Linux, luckily.

Do I need to root my phone to replace the OS?

What would be the best OS for my phone? I'd like to use LineageOS with microG, which would allow me to stay on Android, but I don't think they have official support for the Asus ROG Phone 5.

Would it be better to simply stay on my current OS and use microG?

If I did stay on the stock OS, how would I continue to update it?

A little thing worth mentioning, in case it makes a difference: my phone was made in China(CN), but was rezoned for America (WW).
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] Andrologic:
Q: Do I need to root my phone to replace the OS?

- In principle no. Unlocking the bootloader is a must however.

Q: What would be the best OS for my phone? I'd like to use LineageOS with microG, which would allow me to stay on Android, but I don't think they have official support for the Asus ROG Phone 5.

The best OS for this phone is the original (and also the only on as far as I'm aware)

Q: Would it be better to simply stay on my current OS and use microG?

Yes. You can spoof signature, install MicroG and completely de-Google this device, it works if you want to go that far.

Q: If I did stay on the stock OS, how would I continue to update it?

Use automatic updates. If unlocked/rooted, simply download the firmware you need from the ASUS website.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] AgentLoneStar007:
Thank you so much. I don't know why, but automatic updates don't work on my phone anyway, so I'm fine with having to manually update the firmware. I know a guide on this forum on how to unlock the bootloader, but I don't know a guide on signature spoofing. How would I go about that?
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] Andrologic:
Using Xposed to spoof signature is the most convenient way although there are a couple of methods (I think the MicroG documentation website has a guide).

Not having automatic updates means nothing, just update manually. In fact I prefer that. It also means you can disable the FOTA services that constantly run in the background and free up a tiny bit of CPU/RAM if your goal is performance optimization.
[OnePlus 9] Superguy:
Hey all,

With the 9 being on AT&T's approved list, I called it and asked if was possible to enable 5G on it and get things provisioned. CS and TS both looked at it and said everything's set up on their and and it's enabled on my SIM. Of course, 5G isn't a selection for radios.

I can "sort of" manually enable it in the engineering menu. Unfortunately, it doesn't work. And forcing it with the Network Guru (or whatever it was I saw in another forum) didn't seem to work either. However, I saw that there were people getting the Pixels working on 5G in countries where it was available but the phone wasn't supposed to work.

I'm running on the global rom. Does running the EU version have the option?
[OnePlus 9] EtherealRemnant:
AT&T blocks it by IMEI number. It can't be overridden, people have tried and failed.
[OnePlus 9] AtoZ0to9:
So. Theoretically I could put my fiance's daughter's Mint Mobile SIM in my OP9 to see if the 5g picks up, to test that?
[OnePlus 9] EtherealRemnant:
Mint is T-Mobile. T-Mobile doesn't block 5G by device.
[Android Head-Units] Pseudo Nim:
My car will only fit a 2DIN, and I don't want something that blocks the dash, so 7" seems to be the only option. I've read somewhere that 7" tops out at 1024x600 and everything quoted higher (as well as QLED) is a lie; and as a result, the bird's eye view camera will work very poorly.

Anyone have experience to the contrary? Would appreciate some advice. If you have specific devices you like, please share as well, as there are obviously millions of them on Ali... some even quoting 1280x800 for 7", with bird's eye and everything, which just seems untrue.
[Android Head-Units] zachariostevens:
I currently have a Roadanvi installedo n my nissan with 360 view, I havent had any issues other than I lost the option to solo my cameras, so its only either reverse or 360. With my factory radio I could switch between each 360 cam seperately so If I wanted a front view or right turn view.

I feel like the bigger screen and resolution gave me slick upgrade becasue my image look a bit better, not as good as more modern cameras but still good. (mine is a 2017 nissan, I've noticed cameras in the 2019 models and up look so much better)
[Android Head-Units] Pseudo Nim:
Thanks - which Roadnavi do you have?
[Android Head-Units] zachariostevens:
I have 8gb ram version. I believe its HB5225 Pro
[Android Head-Units] Pseudo Nim:
Hmm? isn’t that the 10” version?
[Android Head-Units] zachariostevens:
Oh might be. I didn't know if you were referring to the factory radio or the android headunit. My factory radio was 7 inch. Sorry. It was very plug and play tho. It didn't block anything on my dash, fit right in. The faceplate was exact copy of my factory faceplate.

Hello,

I have no Magic Eraser available since i installed an Custom ROM on my Phone.

Is it possible that in Custom ROMs thus Feature will not Work?

I have the latest Photo App and Google Camera installed.

Best regards

Lars
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Vincent_40:
Maybe it's because sign proof for Google photo isn't Pixel6 or Pro.

im on a customrom aswell and have the magic eraser?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] s3axel:
Just checked, on Spark OS the magic erases is available....
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Deleted member 11872899:
It's because some custom roms started to spoof the pixel 1 to get unlimited gphotos storage. When it's activated magic eraser will be gone.

There are two method to get magic eraser back. The second one did it for me.

1. Try to disable unlimited photo upload and clear app data and cache of Google Photos.

Or

2. go to /system/product/etc/sysconfig with a root explorer (like MiXplorer or Root explorer) and remove the pixel_2016_exclusive.xml file

Good day everyone,

Apologies for the basic questions, I am very curious here.

Thank you and Take care.

It should work, download if from amazon- rename it to a zip, factory reset. Flash...

If so, then I would wonder why the newer versions haven't been pre stripped and released on here?

Hello,

Let me share with you my unofficial StagOS build. More informations on the rom on their website.

Don't expect regular updates and full support until the official StagOS comes out, as i do it on my free time for my personal use.

Instructions & Prerequisites.

Read documentation before doing anything

adb and fastboot, platform-tools

Bootloader unlocked

Be on the latest OOS 11 firmware. You can try from a different firmware version but i can't guarantee it will work.

Follow the installation guide carefully, the instructions work with A12.1 also

If you need Gapps, check the Gapps section in Lineage documentation before doing anything

Root : TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK. You may patch the boot.img from the Google Drive folder with Magisk

Downloads.

ROM : need some fixes after bug report

Recovery : Lineage recovery

Do Not install this... theres a couple of errors and even after fixing them it doesnt boot..

that old error from spark/blaze (error : expect oneplus 8 but device is instanoodle)

fixed that the same way you used to fix it.. BUT..

recovery does NOT work AND

Does NOT boot ...

you will need to fastboot into bootloader and choose another recovery to help load another ROM ..

waiting to hear back from the dev on telegram to see if he wants me to log what i can..

Hello anyone can tell me please how do I access the router home page Google Chrome doesn't work , I think only old version of Firefox work ? Can anyone advice any app that I can access that page from ?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DMcCunney:
,What router, from what ISP? This will not be a universal issue,

I have a problem like that at the moment. I'm a Spectrum customer, with one of their Ubee routers. I had to get it replaced with a new model. The new ome cannot be accessed from my desktop, regardless of the browser I use. It can only be accessed from an app on a mobile devise. I'm having age related vision issues, and can't use the mobile app because I can't see it well enough. I need to put the router config page on the 23" monitor on my desktop PC to be able to make changes. I can't do so. I may need to get a third party router that does not impose that limitation.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tomatobar:
It's a universal issue because all browser has blocked this IP bagel from all browsers starting 2021 I believe also the way to access it which I know of is downloading old version of Firefox and it works mine is We router from TE Data but I'm pretty sure this issue is universal

[Sony Xperia 1 III] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
So here's a ROM that i would recommend even tho it's in beta Corvus OS it's android 12 and everything works even the Camera but sadly not the greatness of Sony's Camera app...i personally haven't tried it with the Custom Kernel Kirisakura just yet but i will and report back on here if they place nice together...Magisk also works great with this ROM you just have to be careful what you flash...
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Mangtas_666:
Hopefully our device will be fully supported soon.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] UsernameNotRecognized:
Just putting down some thoughts here.

Double tap to wake is borked, the setting already hints that it is unlikely to work and I can confirm this.

Forcing native res works rather poorly. On reboot I need to reset the dpi to make the GUI play nice, but some things remain iffy. Such as:

Gesture navigation still thinks preview windows should be the lower res, not native (looks poor, see attached images)

Some random visual glitches that cause a silent crash + restore, it's not critical but you can see it happening

No built-in battery health (as in limiting it), have to use something external (AccA)

Camera quality is way worse compared to stock. I don't mind as much as I don't care a lot, but quality regression is very significant (if I have to quantify it, I would accept 20-30%, but this feels more like 60%)

The GCAM's I've found that don't immediately crash (not many) all have serious bugs

No camera app found that plays nice with front camera, hope you weren't planning on taking pictures with the front camera

Edit: For 6 you can actually use the native app. Performance is super bad though.

To not sound too much like a downer I'll also put in some "niceties" compared to stock.

Holding volume button to seek is now native

OTA work again

Good visual eyecandy for charging, locking and more

No bloatware galore

Much much finer control over lots of little things, especially status bar is very nice

Other things:

The default launcher is a bit lacking, so I installed Nova 7, but this still has some shenanigans with force reloading and short unresponsiveness with gesture navigation. Very annoying, but I'm quite sure this is not the fault of the ROM. Just hoped this was improved (suggestions welcome)

If someone found a good GCAM please share, the ones I've found are either broken or seriously lacking.

It seems that sometimes the phone does not respond to my finger until I press the button. This could be intentional to prevent accidental unlocks / phone being locked for X seconds because lots of "bad" fingerprints detected.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
Yeah this is the only ROM that i found that legit decided to be custom and not just copy/pasta of Pixel Experience without the GCAM and a different name.....for what I use my phone for it's 100% functional...but it's far from being perfect for everyone rn...
[Sony Xperia 1 III] UsernameNotRecognized:
Yeah, this is why I've been very hesitant to install to install GSI ROMs, all the issues I've mentioned are because the X1 III is not the same as most other devices.

Wake to tap? Device specific thing.

Native res issues? X1III specific.

No built in battery health? Not device specific, devs pls

Camera issues? Device specific.

I think I'll drop the higher res as that will remove the most jarring of issues. The camera is whatever as it will not improve by switching to PE and double tap to wake is meh. Annoying at worst.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
True that...but hey it's there Incase people get bored lol
[Sony Xperia 1 III] UsernameNotRecognized:
Alright some more shenanigans and needing to do a clean install further I do know some more things now.

1. is still broken, I'll try flashing a different kernel perhaps.

2. It's actually not so bad. It will remember and auto apply on reboot after a couple seconds. Gesture and notification bar may be slightly borked, but that's fixed fast by reloading system UI and switching between gesture and button navigation. The thing about recents has been resolved by switching to a different launcher with it's own quickswitch (lawnchair).

3. Acca works fine.

4/5/6 Nothing. :(
[Sony Xperia 1 III] UsernameNotRecognized:
Another update.

2 is fine. Just don't use the built in launcher while forcing 4k. Just use lawnchair or something (+ quickswitch).

On another note, automatic brightness does NOT appear to work. This is quite the massive issue. I'm honestly a bit baffled how I haven't noticed until today.

AOD is also quite broken, while the phone is on the wireless charging and being ratiod to 90% it will continously blink. That's super annoying as I normally use AOD to check if I got a message, if it blinks it takes my attention, effectively defeating the entire purpose of AOD. *Groan*

These issues are really starting to stack up by now, I'm seriously considering reverting to stock. I'm really worried something else won't be working once I need it in the future.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] thatguy222:
No autobrighness may be caused by not having an overlay. I've also been annoyed by that on Pixel Experience. Can you create a fresh overlay for this phone and do a pull request with phhuson's repo? (I assume that's what must done)
[Sony Xperia 1 III] UsernameNotRecognized:
Well, sort of.

https://xdaforums.com/t/kernel-02-0...xperia-1-iii-aka-sagami.4377449/post-87174019

Issue is that the "official" info provided by Sony seems to explicitly disable double tap to wake.

This makes absolutely no sense as double tap to wake works fine in the vanilla ROM.

Maybe someone can confirm this? It's been some time.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] kevinmcmurtrie:
It's available in stock but it has never worked correctly. The proximity sensor doesn't disable it! There's a "Prevent accidental operations with screen off" setting as the world's dumbest work-around. That puts a keyboard and alert on the screen while you're walking. It stops emergency butt-dialing but the battery still runs down.
