Well I updated my drivers and that got the phone recognized in fastbootd mode. I tried fastboot boot magisk-patched-boot.img but that failed, however, fastboot flash boot magisk-patched-boot.img did work so I was finally able to root the phone and apply the safetynet fix which ungreyed OEM unlocking and allowed me to flip it back on. Unfortunately that did not fix the bootloader/fastboot issue. No matter what I still cannot get into fastboot mode.

I was thinking of trying fastboot flashing lock to see if I can relock the bootloader from fastbootd mode but I would rather not make things worse by doing something I shouldn't be doing in fastbootd mode.
[Realme GT 2 Pro] bubundas17:
Have you tried EDL flash? It should be able to restore it back to stock.
[Realme GT 2 Pro] GIutton:
By EDL flash do you mean flashing with the MSM tool? I have tried it several times and it did not help. The bootloader remained unlocked and still cannot boot the phone to fastboot mode.
[Realme GT 2 Pro] Quake94:
I replied in the other thread already, but from what it appears, there is a lot of confusion with the boot modes.

bootloader/fastboot -> adb reboot bootloader (or the key combo) -> This is the mode with the green START button on top

fastbootd - adb reboot fastboot, or fastboot reboot fastboot (from being already in bootloader/fastboot) ->This is the mode with selection of "Wipe Data", "Reboot" and "Power Off", same as Recovery but the label is "Fastbootd"

recovery - adb reboot recovery (or the key combo) -> Shows "Wipe Data", "Reboot" and "Power Off", label is "Recovery"

EDL - adb reboot edl / fastboot oem edl / short testpoints or modify boot entry -> This is for QCIL / MSM or any other Qualcomm firehose flashing.

So can you confirm:

When you ran adb reboot bootloader, did you see a "mascot", or did it look like a screen glitch?

adb reboot bootloader should get you to the regular fastboot with green START

The "mascot" would show only when the phone was starting fastboot

The "glitch" happened to me when I've installed OTA and then I tried to boot to second slot via Magisk or "set_active" command. And what fixed it was selecting "Install" in OEM updater.
[Realme GT 2 Pro] GIutton:
When I try the button combo the screen shows the realme logo then glitches and reboots to the system and from there if I try adb reboot bootloader I get a mascot looking thing with chinese letters then the screen glitches and it reboots right back into the system.

So you are calling the button combo "fastboot mode" and adb reboot bootloader/fastboot reboot bootloader the "bootloader" but both of these show the same start menu?
[Realme GT 2 Pro] Quake94:
Holding Volume Down + Power button starts the "fastboot mode", same mode as the command adb reboot bootloader.

My understanding is that bootloader mode is same as fastboot mode.

On a side note, when I run fastboot oem device-info, I have the following: information

Also, running fastboot getvar all:

platform-tools>fastboot getvar all

Not sure if useful...
[Realme GT 2 Pro] GIutton:
Been trying to find out if there is a way to reflash the bootloader/fastboot to the phone?

Or how about relocking the bootloader without fastboot mode? osm0sis posted some tools that could do it on some older phones but haven't seen anything like it for newer ones so maybe it's not possible anymore. I have the phone rooted but if I can get back to stock with a locked bootloader I'd at least be happy.
[Realme GT 2 Pro] Quake94:
You could run the getvar command and compare partitions

Maybe try flashing "vendor_boot" or "abl" from the fastbootd.

Fastboot is stored on "abl" partition, so a bit of precaution

I would recommend backing them up before flashing over
[Realme GT 2 Pro] GIutton:
When I use the MSM tool it flashes the "vendor_boot"

Do you know where I can get a copy of the abl partition? I am guessing it is not the abl.elf file found in the firmware ofp? And do I use dd to backup the file located in dev/block/by-name/abl_<a,b>?

I will try it but idk if it's going to allow me to flash the abl partition in fastbootd though. Ever since I tried doing a local install of A.20 then I MSM tool it back to A.17 and took the A.20 update ota (was trying various things to see if it would fix it) now it wont even flash the boot.img anymore. I get FAILED (remote: No such file or directory). Have already tried the MSM tool again to go back to A.17 but still can't flash a boot.img. So now I'm back to having an unlocked bootloader that I cannot relock and also cannot root the phone either lol.

Edit: "fastboot oem device-info" fails and "fastboot getvar all" gives me a completely different output from what you show. Not a single line is the same for me to be able to compare it to. And oh yeah I can't root the phone so I won't be able to backup the abl partition huh?

Edit again: okay so no idea why this worked but I tried "fastboot flash boot_b boot.img" and this worked and allowed me to root the phone. Last time I rooted I definitely used "fastboot flash boot boot.img" so idk why that stopped working but at least I am now rooted again. Also wanted to add that even after I flash the phone with MSM tool, USB debugging is enabled so something/some partitions are not being overwritten. I know MSM tool doesn't seem to overwrite the persist.img so could something in there be causing this? Or any other partitions not being overwritten that could potentially cause this?
[Realme GT 2 Pro] abhi24365:
Stuck on same. Service centre guys couldnt do anything

Were you able to find a solution?
[Realme GT 2 Pro] GIutton:
Unfortunately no I have not. I was thinking about flashing the persist to see if that fixes it, or using the MSM tool to put a different region software on the phone but I have not gotten around to doing either of those yet. There is something that isnt being overwritten by the MSM tool because after I use it not only is the bootloader still unlocked but even USB debugging is still turned on. The only thing I can think of would be the persist image because that for sure is not being overwritten by MSM tool. I am just a bit wary to try it because I have read some bad stuff can happen if it goes wrong.
[Realme GT 2 Pro] abhi24365:
I would strongly advice against flashing the persist partition. I have done it earlier on Realme X3 pro and i lost widevine L1 permanently. I discovered it the hard way. However as of now its more or less same boat as u can not lock the bootloader and widevine remains on L3(unless u have a chinese variant with permanent L3) But may be in future u can lock bootloader somehow u will get it back the L1, but persist will surely wipe your L1 keys and is non reversible. U can check other forums to verify it.

The guy at Realme service centre used official MSM tool to flash the firmware A.14 still bootloader remained locked.

Hope you discover something to lock the bootloader.

I am now living with unrooted stock as it allows to run certain bank apps which detect root no matter how i hide it.
[Realme GT 2 Pro] GIutton:
Right that is what I had read too about losing widevine permanently if you flash persist which is why I have not tried it yet. Would that happen even if I save a backup copy of the persist and flash it back?

So is your bootloader locked or unlocked?

The main thing for me is just finding a way to relock the bootloader. I do not care so much about accessing fastboot mode, I just want to relock the bootloader so I can get Widevine L1 back but seems the only way to do that is in fastboot mode.
[Realme GT 2 Pro] GIutton:
Have you updated to A13 yet? I just did the update manually and Widevine L1 was restored on my phone and the bootloader is still unlocked.
[Realme GT 2 Pro] GIutton:
Just wanted to let you know that I was able to get this fixed. Not exactly sure if I had to do all these steps or only some of them but I will just list everything I remember doing just in case.

First I updated the phone to Android 13 RMX3301export_11_C.13 by local install then factory wiped it from the settings menu. Then I set it up like I normally would and rooted it by flashing a magisk patched boot image through fastbootd. Then I installed the universal safetynet fix v2.4.0 module and rebooted. Next I enabled developer options and USB debugging and then ticked the OEM unlocking switch to off but did not restart the phone, and then I ticket it right back on. Next I went and opened the deep testing app and, unlike every other time I tried this, this time it did not recognize the bootloader as being unlocked already and allowed me to submit an application which I did. The phone froze on something like "application submitted: processing" so after about 30 min I clicked on "back" and then clicked on "query approval status". It showed my application was approved and I clicked on "start deep testing" and the phone immediately and successfully booted the bootloader/fastboot. From here I selected the option "reboot to bootloader" and it was a success again so then I booted into the system, connected it to the PC and did "adb reboot bootloader" and again it booted into the bootloader/fastboot mode just fine. I have no idea why any of this would have worked all of the sudden because I have tried pretty much the same stuff in the past. Maybe it has something to do with the Android 13 update or the new safetynet fix v2.4.0. All I know is I just kept tinkering with it and finally something worked.
[Realme GT 2 Pro] M323:
Hello everybody.

I have a similar issue, with a few differences :

I tried flash a custom ROM and used fastboot mode ( by keep DOWN+POWER keys ).

After this command: (fastboot reboot fastboot) my fastboot mode was disabled, and I can not connect to my tablet again. Now tablet show the logo after restart for a few seconds and then restart again. I searched on the web to how to enable fastboot mode again and not found anything. One person preferred me to wait to recharge battery completely and then charge, but it does not work. So I need help immediately.

This is my list of commands I used :

As you can see, "fastboot reboot fastboot" was the last command I used, and then my tablet restarted and fastboot mode disabled forever. So turning off and then keeping Down+Power keys for going to fastboot not working

How can I enable fastboot mode again ?
[Realme GT 2 Pro] Brick098:
same issue, but i can't boot into twrp, or system, because i was trying to reflash everything, and did fastboot oem unlock to see what would happen, on a wileyfox spark+. what do i do.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] MidnightJava:
I'm running the latest nightly build of LOS 19.1 on my One Plus Five. Suddenly, after years using LTE with no problems, today, I can no longer make LTE connections. This happens when out and about and also at home, where I have solid LTE coverage. Also, my wife's iPhone using the same T-Mobile account makes LTE connections when next to mine. The One Plus 5 reports an Edge connection, but now and then it reports LTE just briefly. I verified my cell carrier account has no issues.

I downloaded the stock OOS 10.0.1 firmware+radio zip package and flashed it via adb sideload. That succeeded, but it didn't help. APN and preferred Network settings are correct, I think (same was what always worked), so I'm wondering if I have a hardware problem.

Is there a way I can verify that the radio hardware is causing the problem? I have the LTE Discovery App, but I'm not informed sufficiently to know how to make sense of all the advanced data. Are there other modems I can try flashing?
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] MidnightJava:
I discovered the source of the problem. I had set Private VPMn from Automatic to Off when dealing with a problem connecting to hotel wifi. I didn't realize that would make the phone unable to connect to LTE, but apparently, it did.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] curiousmurf:
Howdy. I just got a new Pixel 5 and would appreciate some feedback please.

My goals are:

- A phone that's rock stable, speedy and not bloated with unnecessary apps/features that reduce battery life.

- use mainly for productivity apps. Will have between 70-100 apps to use througout the day.

- not interested in visual features, extra securities, gaming etc

- will install Nova Prime and Tasker/Macdroid to further customize phone.

- yes. I have some experience with installing custom roms in the past... 3-4 years ago.

My questions:

1. will updating to Android 13 a good idea with my requirements ? I've look at A13 and don't really need most of the new features. However one option I'm thinking of is to update to A13 then root the phone and use a bloatware removal to remove/disable unnecessary features. Is this a good option?

2. Is there another stable/fast rom that is considerably better than A13 given my priorities above? Stability with features like Gps, wifi, bluetooth, camera, use of gestures and voice controls is important to me.

3. There's a new QR scanner feature in A13 that I may be using in the near future. If I don't upgrade to A13 is there an app for this?

Thanks for any feedback.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] swangjang:
It's too early to tell if Android 13 will be faster or slower. As with any new major update, it will be buggy for the first few months while they iron out the issues with monthly updates. You'll just have to try it out and see.

Stock roms are pretty debloated already so you probably don't need to worry about that too much. But if you wanted, yes you could use a bloatware removal tool to remove more stuff.

Personally, I'm still on Android 11 November patch. I just procrastinated updating because rooting Android 12 required a factory reset and I was waiting for all the major issues to be patched before updating. And then Android 13 just got released lol. For me, Android 11 still runs smoothly and have no issues so I might stay on it for a while longer until I decide to update.

I can't say much on custom roms because I haven't used them but they are still mostly Android 11 and 12 because 13 was only just released.

As for QR scanner, there are plenty of free ones to choose from in the PlayStore so there's no need to worry if you decide not to update to Android 13.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] curiousmurf:
Thanks swangjang.

I think i'll update to A13. Many people seem happy with the update.

My Pixel 3 G013A doesn't get Volte Update it stucks on October 2021 update... Whats the problem and how to get update officially?
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] dcarvil:
Don't know what caused your problem, but if you can unlock your bootloader you can download the latest image at https://developers.google.com/android/images, or use the flash tool at that URL. Read the installation instructions at that URL.
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] Mine Hashu:
Is there no any solution without unlocking bootloader? 🥲
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] dcarvil:
I do not know any other solution.
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] yeswap:
I think you should be able to install the missing factory OTAs one after another using adb sideload without unlocking the bootloader. See https://developers.google.com/android/ota
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] Mine Hashu:
I done this, i downloaded latest OTA image, installed it successfully, but! There is no change nor resolved, still same...
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] dcarvil:
What exactly did you download?
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] yeswap:
What did you expect to see change? AFAIK the only visible changes with the the three updates after October, 2021 are the build number and build date. The Android Security date does NOT update with these post-EOL updates, it stays at Oct, 2021.
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] Mine Hashu:
The change is VOLTE🥲 I'm still on LTE🥲 which is very slow🥲there is no option to enable VOLTE🥲
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] Mine Hashu:
View attachment 5690985

I downloaded this one, with Feb 2022 Security Update Level which VOLTE supported too, but after installation there is no change, I'm still on Oct 2021 Security Update Level and there is no option to enable VOLTE🥲
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] dcarvil:
VoLTE Roaming Support is in the June 2022 update, not the Feb. update. I don't know what VoLTE support, if any, is in the Feb. update. Also, as @yeswap mentioned above, the security update level is not what you should be checking - it is frozen on Oct. 5 2021. Go to Settings, About Phone, Android Version and check the build number and build date to see what version you are actually running.
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] Mine Hashu:
Oh yes! You are right VOLTE is in June update, by the way there is no June update for my build number may be thats the reason i didn't get VOLTE Update
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] yeswap:
VoLTE is Voice over LTE, it has nothing to do with data speed.

There's no VoLTE toggle in Android settings with Android 12 on the Pixel 3. VoLTE is enabled by the carrier and not all carriers support it. Contact you carrier and ask them if they support VoLTE and if it's provisioned on your line.

You can see.if VoLTE is provisioned by dialing *#*#INFO#*#*. You can test if VoLTE is working by making a phone call. If your phone stays on LTE during the call VoLTE is working, if the phone switches to 3G during the call VoLTE is not working.
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] Mine Hashu:
Ok master! So why this sign in red? 🥲
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] yeswap:
I already told you, the post EOL updates do not change the Security date it stays at October.
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] Mine Hashu:
Ok
[Google Pixel 6] Hot-Proton:
I have now been confirmed several times that when I'm on the phone and have the speaker on, my counterpart always says you would understand me only very poorly. If I turn off the speaker during the conversation, but immediately comes the message, it is much better. Is this also the case with you? I've had this since day one and thought there might be an update, but the problem is still there. I mean once to have read that if you turn off 2G this would fix the problem but 2G is off. I now also use VoLTE thanks to new tariff, but also brought no improvement.

A few times now, I've had the vibrate function get stuck when I receive an email or message. I am able to get it to stop if I open the email/message or navigate to the tab. I have it set to sound a short alert and vibrate. Anyone else have this issue or have an idea what it may be?

Nothing need be running (other than Activesync and possibly file Explorer) to get this issue. Stock Sprint ROM with a few mild registry edits.
[Touch Pro CDMA] ORam78:
I have had the same problem. So far no one has been able to find a solution. For now just take off the vibrate.

Stuck Vibrate

Same here. Mine has done it 2 or 3 times while on the charger. I wonder what whould happen if I were away from the phone. Would it vibrate forever?

Hope the next ROM fixes this. I'm on stock ROM with mild reg edits also.

[Google Pixel 6] bolillo:
So i have had this issue since i got the phone at launch and nothing has resolved it short of just factory resetting the phone and i haven't done this out of being lazy and probably because it might not fix the issue and everything would be for nothing, the issue is when trying to send a pic or video via telegram while you already opened up the keyboard, i will attach a video on the issue
[Google Pixel 6] ibanezman192:
This is a Pixel 6 thread, not a Telegram bug reporting group. Wake up, the cake is a lie.
[Google Pixel 6] bolillo:
so the question is is it telegram or the phone? since all my other phones have no issues and my gf's pixel 4a doesn't have the issue, honestly its not the first time i have had issues with apps involving the keyboard not hiding when its supposed to. Also could you please test it if you don't have the app to see if it would probably be fixed on my end if i factory reset. I just want to know if its not a me issue and its an actual issue with app on the phone.
[Google Pixel 6] tom1807:
For this to help, needs more information to determine whether it's an app problem or Pixel 6 problem.

First, are you both on the same Android version? Did it work previously? When this happened? and which app version is installed on both mobiles?

I tend to agree, that this is an app problem.

Fastest way to figure that out would be to reset the app by deleting the storage from the app.

Cheers
