[OnePlus Nord N20 5G] PsYk0n4uT:
It boots, just no radios. As for DSU, guess I just need to do some more reading. Sorry if some of this seems obvious to you, I just seem to spend so much time pouring through so much information that some of it gets to be confusing, especially when I'm researching for school at the same time. I'm working on IT certs and I think maybe the years of scouring the net and these forums too for the many other devices has left my memory a mess, wish I could remember everything I've read but my ADHD kicks in midway through anything I set out to do and I go down rabbit holes that come out somewhere far from where I started. Hopefully you guys will remain patient with my questions. Im trying to learn and mistakes seem to be the way I have always learned. Break something and fix it. Lol. But I do have the drive to do whatever it takes to fix what I break. Curiosity has always been my friend.

And as for the mismatching image, my first intuition was the same. I doubt i won't be able to fix it eventually. For now it's a project that gives me more motivation to learn.
[OnePlus Nord N20 5G] AndyYan:
As discussed separately you've already fixed the device and got up to rooted stock. You can now proceed to try out DSU Sideloader. The app itself isn't complicated, and the GitHub page has a readme too.
[OnePlus Nord N20 5G] PsYk0n4uT:
Thanks. Yeah I'm not sure. I guess something was different or wrong with the boot image I flashed. Another thread on the N10 mentioned that the magisk patched boot images broke wifi and Bluetooth for some reason. But I'm not having any issues so far with the magisk patched image of what I can confidently say is the right boot image
[OnePlus Nord N20 5G] PsYk0n4uT:
DSU Sideloader has been an awesome tool for sideloading and testing GSI's most GSI's work if not buggy but i have actually noticed performance Improvemtn in some. i particularly like crdroid even though the launcher crashes
[OnePlus Nord N20 5G] PsYk0n4uT:
Would love to get Kali ported. Too many issues with permissions on stock ROM
[OnePlus Nord N20 5G] famewolf:
If you got DSU to work on the N20 what settings did you use and which GSI? I've tried PHH, Lineage 19.1 and PixelplusUI...left the userdata to 2GB and every time I'm given the option to "restart" to boot into it, it just reboots the phone.
[OnePlus Nord N20 5G] PsYk0n4uT:
use dsu sideloader not the built-in one. see the dsu sideloader github page for instructions. ive actually flashed pixel experience so i know that one works. i used crdroid in dsu sideloader...... someone else mentioned they used lineage. for unrooted devices ...

DSU Sideloader by VegaBobo:

GitHub - VegaBobo/DSU-Sideloader: A simple app made to help users easily install GSIs via DSU's Android feature.

[OnePlus Nord N20 5G] famewolf:
That's the one I installed. V1.03 on the github. adb pushed the GSI's to sdcard and then did the install do a directory called "dsu" on internal storage. Left everything default...got through install including running the adb command but when time to restart it showed the metro logo and then just rebooted. Thought I might not be giving enough userdata or something.
[OnePlus Nord N20 5G] PsYk0n4uT:
did u restart through the notifications?

and do the adb command it asks u to do if your not rooted?

i just downloaded the gsi's on-device and used from internal storage but i dont think that should make a difference. and as for userdata thats up to you. if im gonna be in a gsi for a while. and especially if you wanna pull your backups your gonna need around 20gb of userdata to hold those backups unless you plan on dd'ing them to external storage in shell or something. actually i set my default userdata to 32gb in settings so i dont have to remember to do that. but usually if im testing in a GSI i plan on being in there for a while and dont want to end up wanting/needing the space and then not having it. you dont have to do 32gb but your gonna need 15gb or so for backups if you pull a full system backup, which i HIGHLY recommend and you may as well do it while your getting the boot image and do it all at once. i made a post on DSU sideloader. maybe this is good info for that thread.

also can you tell us what security patch your on and if you GN2200 or CPH2459
[OnePlus Nord N20 5G] famewolf:
I did restart through the notification and yes I did the adb command for non root. I left it as 2gb strictly because I was testing. Once I had one up and running I planned to up the space for a backup. It's currently on the may security update and I have not given it access to wifi or sim to prevent updates till I could take a backup. (well they didn't INCLUDE a sim card with my order and I'm still waiting on a replacement. Trying to use the metro sim from my n200 order did NOT work so guess it's locked to that phone). When you mention Pixel Experience do you mean this one? https://xdaforums.com/t/gsi-unofficial-12-pixel-experience.4354695/

This pixel experience GSI failed to even install after running the adb command with userdata set to 32GB. Space shouldn't be an issue given it's freshly setup with ONLY DSU sideloader added via adb install. I'd like to know what you are doing different to make DSU sideloader work. I'll try moving the image to the internal storage instead of external sdcard.

I factory reset the n20...did offline setup, added dsu sideloader and the lineage GSI and followed the instructions only to have it just say "install failed" now...I give up for now. Has anyone still on MAY firmware had DSU work for them? Perhaps I HAVE to let it update. Is August firmware still A11?

[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] IvanR8:
I've already google it, and my phone keep rebooting to the main system.

FYI, my bootloader is still locked.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanksss :)
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Obi_Wlan:
Turn off your phone.

Press and hold the Power + Volume Down buttons together and immediately connect the device to your PC. You need to time it perfectly.

It will automatically boot into EDL mode.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] IvanR8:
Thanks, but have you try it on this phone? coz I've tried that way, still no luck
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] georg3_:
Try getting into fastboot, and:

fastboot reboot emergency

If you don't succeed, then the phone itself doesn't have EDL mode.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] IvanR8:
Yes, I think this phone doesn't have EDL mode.. But, FYI the command is correct, but it still go straight to the OS..

F you Xiaomi, what is your goal to make us to wait 168hour just to unlock the bootloader??? F YOU!!!
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] idivision2002:
If you still have warranty you can get fixed from a Xiaomi service center for free, however if now I'm sure they'd still fix it maybe for a small fee
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] CoizSola:

fastboot oem edl
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] SubwayChamp:
All Qualcomm devices have EDL mode, on locked bootloader, you can't boot as easy as pressing any buttons or through ADB/fastboot commands, you need to unlock it firstly, or using the test point method.

In all my previous unlocked Xiaomi devices I have booted to EDL mode by pressing both volume buttons, I didn't try it with this device though.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] ygamer35:
Hello, I managed to get my phone into EDL mode but it exits it after a few seconds, which is not enough to complete the flash, plz help
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] SubwayChamp:
First start the tool you are using, then put your device in EDL mode, and connect it to the PC.

Be sure, opening device manager, that your device really enters in download mode, drivers have to be properly installed and updated.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] shadyhat:
forget soft EDL mode. I assume you are trying to use a xiaomi/redmi/poco and you have lost access to the sim card registered with the mi account. unless your account is unlocked or you have access to the os, you cannot unlock the bootloader nor enter EDL. But there is a workaround. you have to do the flashing on a higher level before the bootloader is started. A bit like when you enter BIOS on a computer, you can make changes to the OS without having access to admin/root user. Android or any phone manufacturer doesn't make these tools, but the chip set manufacturers do, in your case qualcomm. Requires windows (makes me angry, Linux user for 25 years already) but https://www.thecustomdroid.com/qpst-flash-tool-download-usage-guide/ download and use the reset points as seen in the picture (example only, check your model) When you short the points during boot, it will take you directly to EDL mode, then flash using the QPST tool mentioned above. Good luck!

EDIT

This works on any bricked or locked phone or if it's stuck in bootloop, as long as it's a qualcomm.

Yes, also stolen phones can have any account ID removed with these instructions. I have seen endless threads on miserable failures specially on xiaomi devices, as it is physically not possible to unlock the bootloader in any other way unless you have access to the OS or Mi account.

UPDATE

I'm about to go through the process with a Redmi 8 in the coming days, i will try to take screenshots and make a simple step-by-step guide. I'll make a new thread for it and post the link here
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Aar0nCruz:
I've been trying to fix a mi 11 Lite 5G using QFIL but I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

I have this phone with the "the system has been destroyed" and doesn't boot OS, so I tried to install custom ROMs but BL it's Locked, so I tried mi unlock tool , but it says it's blocked... Then I'm trying to install Stock ROM using QFIL but I'm having Sahara's error message. I have this ideas that might work

1st I don't know if I'm flashing the correct file, I'm using Fastboot ROM file, do I have to use Recovery instead in QFIL?

2nd I don't know if I have to move the ROM file into QFIL's "bin" folder to flash it correctly, I saw a YouTube vid of a Indian Guy explaining that

If I can do more and revive this little fella I'll Post it as a medal Cuz it's driving me crazy that I can't make this phone run again

This phone I found it in the garbage because the amount of damage, but still screen shows up.

Edit.

I just read the whole article about flashing using EDL mode and sadly found out in comments section that Xiaomi only let you flash using an authorized account 😔

For my situation that the phone that I found was blocked by the last owner well I don't know if Xiaomi let the authorized account technician recover it Because of the lock... If I can only get the last owner info to contact and do the things right...

I hope it helps, so don't buy Xiaomi if you are gonna mess whit bricked piones

[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Aar0nCruz:
Yeah I read that article, infact I answered about restoring my device, I can't use QFIL to flash the phone, the only program that can flash it in EDL mode it's mi flash tool but i can't because I'm nor an authorized user. So I have to pay to remote user to use it's account and flash it... Kinda frustrating 😞, I don't know if paid software can do it. If someone know how I'll appreciate
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] shadyhat:
Which model are you trying to flash? Hard EDL can be accessed even if the bootloader is locked or without access to the xiaomi account. What you achieve if done right, is have control over the device before the phone starts the bootloader, like the BIOS on a computer. Since the device has not loaded any part of the OS (android) at this stage, there is no need for root access, no passwords whatsoever, as these features are all part of the OS. Normally this function is blocked by Android, but you just have to enter the EDL mode before Android is loaded.

Sometimes some phones also allow you to install OS from a memory card, if you have that option, have a look here: https://xdaforums.com/t/guide-9008-...-unbrick-via-external-sdcard-no-qfil.3748946/
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Aar0nCruz:
I know how EDL works for flashing a device, the problem it's Xiaomi, that locked the way to flash in EDL mode to an authorized account, not Xiaomi local account, and authorization to do EDL flash, you have to log in in the beginning of the process to success flashing... And now that I archive the authorization, I can't flash this mi 11 Lite 5g because it's "find my device" locked... How frustrating I am...
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] dfyoung10:
If I turn my screen off it will not come back on. I can see a very faint but unusable screen image. If I plug in the charger I can fool around with it and get it to start up. It works normally if I don't turn off the screen or if I leave it on the charger. I tried a new battery but changing it did not cure the problem. Any ideas?

Edit: if I toggle Always On and get the clock during sleep, the problem seems to go away.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scary Guy:
So my phone's battery finally gave up completely turning into a spicy hot-pocket. I took a spudger and removed the popped glued-on back, took out all the screws, separated the faceplate, and removed it tossing it into the middle of my driveway for safety. I was using it for years connected to a charger as the battery really was a glorified capacitor.

I saw the 6P won't work that way, but that's a completely different manufacturer. I don't have much hope of this working, but it would be neat if it did. Luckily I did back everything up off it a few days ago so I didn't really lose anything important.

New Version Release [Android App] [V 8.35.11]

Added:

We’ve added a new feature called "Shortcuts" to the Android app. With this feature, we help our users quickly access geo-restricted websites with PureVPN by simply saving them in the shortcuts section and specifying the location for them.

To save a shortcut, you’d need to first select the pre-saved shortcut in the app (this includes Netflix, BBC, Amazon Prime, Hulu, NBC, Hotstar, etc.), and then select the location for it.

You can connect to any of your saved shortcuts, which will not only connect you to that specified location but also route you to the website.

Improvement:

Made some bug fixes.

> Here's a step-by-step guide on how to add shortcuts:

1- Open the PureVPN app, go to the locations section, and click on the "+" icon to add a shortcut.

View attachment 5682789

2- Select any of the pre-saved shortcuts.

View attachment 5682791

3- Choose a location you want to connect to for that specific shortcut.

View attachment 5682793

4- Save the shortcut.

View attachment 5682795

5- Tap on the shortcut to connect to it.

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Joe_PDA:
Usually I am writing about some PDA problem that I need the experienced users here to bail me out with.

Today I am writing about a positive review. I just loaded Sprite Backup software, that came with my TouchPro. I wasn't sure it would be worthwhile, but it works very well. It does a full backup of EVERYTHING on your PDA either onto your PC or onto the microSD card. Three times in the past three years, my PDAs would suddenly hard reset themselves while I was traveling overseas. So this feature is awesome.

With the option to backup to the microSD, the backup file, which is an .exe file can be run right after a hard reset to bring the PDA back exactly where it was before the hard reset. Wow!

I haven't used the recovery yet, but the backup process is simple, quick and easy. If recovery works as well, it makes this a "must have" app.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Carty:
I feel SPB Backup much better and stable. Read my backing up pocket pc guide.

Regards,

Carty..
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] prubin:
I agree that Spb is the better program. I ran both Sprite (came with Fuze) and Spb. Sbp was much faster and easier to use.

However, Sprite is a no cost extra for those who have the new Touch Pro.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Joe_PDA:
Sprite versus SPB Backup

Carty,

Thanks for the added opinion. SPB does sound pretty good. How much does it cost?

So far Sprite seems to work well and is fairly quick, especially if I do not backup my photos and mp3's. Since these are on my microSD card, that hasn't been necessary anyway.

Have you ever done a restore with Sprite? How did that work out? Was it a seamless/painless restore back to the original state before hard reset?

How does the Sprite restore compare to the SPB restore?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Alucard_11:
Im planning to Flash a New rom onto my Fuze, and i noticed that it has included the Sprite Backup, that i can use.

I was thinking of using PIM Backup, instead of Sprite.

What are u guys thoughts on PIM Backup? has anyone used it after flashing a new rom?

If i use the Sprite Backup, that is included with my fuze, and i back up everything onto my MicroSD card/Computer...If the Rom that i install does NOT have Sprite Backup installed...can i still use the .exe backup file from the sprite program? Or would u have to install Sprite Backup onto the NEW ROM, for it to be able to restore my backup?
