ive recently unlocked my bootloader as well but im updated to the GN2200_11_A.07 update. has there been any luck getting this device rooted?
[OnePlus Nord N20 5G] PsYk0n4uT:
Yes please read the post titled how to root. Rooting is the same for every patch so far and probably won't change. I haven't posted any August because I haven't updated to August and don't plan to. Maybe someone who has updated to August will decide to post a patched boot.img to make it easier but you are probably safer just patching it yourself.
[OnePlus Nord N20 5G] PsYk0n4uT:
Different things. Wifi. Bluetooth. Cellular. May as well just flash them all so they all match. None of this will affect your EFS partitions. But I'm pretty sure that Bluetooth is labeled Bluetooth and etc.. the others are just the different components for the radios to function security patch should match otherwise they don't work together. Just keeps things secure I guess probably some kind of hash checking between the various systems to make sure nothing been tampered with. Security features, compliments of the manufacturers. Probably incentive for carriers to do business with them
[OnePlus Nord N20 5G] PsYk0n4uT:
The ones beginning with qupfw im pretty sure is Qualcomm wifi firmware
[OnePlus Nord N20 5G] dustinsmock20:
If anyone has the complete files for version A05/A06/A07 that would be great. I have my phone running, bootloader unlocked, rooted, wifi and most of everything working, all except my Network, the Mobile data section is greyed out, and won't even try finding signal or a carrier or anything. I can't figure out the correct file to flash or a way to bypass it. So if anyone has a fix that would be A1
[OnePlus Nord N20 5G] DonJulio999:
would you happen to have august update boot img?
[OnePlus Nord N20 5G] dustinsmock20:
How do I fix the fact that on adb it says "you cannot flash critical partitions" or something like that, I know it says I can't do it because it's a critical partition, and I can't get it to flash.
[OnePlus Nord N20 5G] DrScrad:
try going

try going into fastboot and doign the command

fastboot flashing unlock_critical
[OnePlus Nord N20 5G] dmtec:
I started a forum thread over at oneplus after trying to get the august OTA via chat. The website replaced the N20 5G with the N20 SE and the 5G doesn't show on the software upgrade page. I haven't exerted much work into trying to extract the boot img from the device, the bootloader is unlocked and I can't find the OTA anywhere on the internet.

edit: i pulled the boot image myself and posted it in it's own thread.

Do you have a recommendation on an app to use?

Currently got the 12GB N20 file.

it had different rar's inside of it that each seemed to be a portion

so using my infinite knowledge, i extracted them all into one folder

Attempting to use QFIL to flash it all, i get Sahara firehose error

Do you guys know how to fix this or another tool i can use to flash ALL firmware

My phones been bricked, stock firmware flashed with bootloader flashall method fixed the brick, but its still kinda broken.

Wont update and cannot use wallet apps because it thinks im rooted or tampered.

No root or patch, purely used fastboot with stock ofp, fingerprint reader messed up but face id works

Goal: Get back to untampered stock and update to a12

(tool i used to flashall was OppoRealme-Flash-Tool)

Heya,

Can you suggest which phone should we buy?

- should have a good amount of gigabytes on the phone itself

- should allow usage of SD card as the main storage (adoptable storage)

- should have fast sliding speed between pages and apps

- should have little bloatware and be less widget-dependant

- 3 rear cameras aren't needed (not even sure why anyone needs more than 1 rear 1 front) but should have 1 good rear camera and a decent front

- should not be too thick

- must not be Samsung or IPhone

- must not go too far from the 470 EUR range

- should be available in Croatian recognized shops, not only webshops (sadly we've got no infinix, google pixel, barely any realmes, some one pluses but not all shops)

- should have great battery life that won't be compromised

- should have a system akin to the snapdragon android

Huawei was the best phone as it was simple to use an very satisfying, but the battery got ruined, and it doesn't allow adoptable storage, what's more it's away from google.

[Moto G5S Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] LPCA:
Hey everyone,

It seems very unfortunate but the Moto G5S Plus age is advancing as lots of developers have been dropping support for it.

Most ROMs i've found are now with development or builds halted (unmaintained, deprecated or discontinued) for the G5S Plus, or even in some cases, ROM was abandoned all together.

This can be seen on this forum where i've marked 12 different ROMs/topics as such.

The ones found here: https://theandroidlab.com/best-custom-roms-for-moto-g5s-plus/

Are as well in the same state (most have been posted in this forum).

Here's what I have found to be the most updated:

[Moto G5S Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] q2n:
Thanks for cleaning up and posting links to the few remaining ROMs in active development.

You may wish to correct the Arrow info; latest stable build was late June.

It is indeed sad that so many contributors have left the G5S+ building. Maybe this makes diehard fans appreciate the few remaining even more, especially since the phone still works great.

My sense is that this phone's owners would like to have some of the old favorites, such as crD or RR, but given the entire situation, we're grateful for any ROMs available!

never put a custom rom on my smartphone was first time I put tried the crdroid already talked about is good more manage to install it gets in infinite loop on my g5s plus sanders only manage to install arrowos hopefully leave some day 12.1 for sanders if someone update it of course

Thank you for this thread. I hope developers will keep Sanders going. After seeing this thread I flashed my first custom ROM ever--the Arrow 11 release. Seems to be working well, and as a bonus, it allows me to use ATT networks, which had been impossible to use with the 3G shutdown. I was going to use the newest update, but it seems that kniffte had problems with it.

Still going strong even after getting slammed by a car door. Obviously not my daily but would be interested if any 12/13 releases saw the light of day.

Last week I merged my 2 Sanders and got 1 fully functional again. Battery was dead in one and screen in the other one.

It seems I'm one of the only persons wishing to flash something new in this phone :)

Also I gave new life to a Moto X4 and found it was a Lineage 21.0 working perfectly for it. Hope we had it for Sanders but I see devs stopped developing here.

If there is any dev wishing to release a new rom, I'm ready to test!

:)
[Moto G5S Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] q2n:
Mine also still works great so why replace it? Here in the US, AT&T no longer permits older phones to connect and Verizon allows connection only for data (no voice). That leaves only Tmo, which does work well.

Side issue: Should the telecoms be allowed to disconnect older devices that still meet current standards? Understanding they want to sell new hardware but still, IMO, no.

Back on topic, I've been running Arrow for a long time now. @kniffte does a great job keeping it updated and it runs flawlessly.

Was hoping someone would build a 12 or 13 ROM in any flavor -- even the newest are stuck on 11. So that hope is slowly fading away. May have to retire this phone in the next year or two. That will be a sad day.
[Moto G5S Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] kniffte:
Hello,

sorry for not providing updates lately, I was waiting for Google to provide a proper android11-security-release with the security tags. But they haven't done so for the February/March/April updates.

I'm currently building the new update (the first test build was successful) and hope to provide the February release soon.

Sadly, it looks like there won't be any more updates really - Google did not provide any Android11 update for March or April - for the first time in years.

Concerning Android 12/13: I would like to do that, but

1. I would need to update the kernel (the updates are currently running version 3.18, latest kernel 5.25(?)) - and the compiler suddenly exits after 1,000 warnings. I haven't found a way to get around it

2. kernel vol.2: I haven't been able to configure it properly, but a default setting might be sufficient

3. kernel vol.3: I have no idea, if the 3.18 drivers are compatible to 5.25 - and I don't know how/where to get the updated versions (if there are any at all)

4. the device's config xml files have changed and I haven't found a documentation/guide/other updated device, to compare the changes and maybe adjust

If you can/want to help me here - let's do it :)
