[OPPO Find X3 Pro] super5at:
We have a few Chinese Find X3 Pros for development and were looking into rooting them for more advanced development capabilities (especially around the Hexagon SDK). I went through the "deeptest" application process, got my bootloader unlocked, and applied some sketchy Magisk boot image I found. Unfortunately, I think the boot image was for the international version (the CPH2173), and it was unhappy with that. It rebooted back into fastboot. Foolishly, I flashed the image again, only for it to go into the *other* boot image slot. Oops.

I notice fastboot says "Secure Boot: Yes", and I'm curious what exactly that means. Is there a way to turn that off, or is that a fuse that's blown? If I can't disable it, how far does the verification process go? Before fastboot? Including fastboot? vbmeta?

I made *some* progress by flashing vbmeta (again, from some CPH2173 firmware) with --disable-verity and --disable-verification. Then, I can send it the boot image via fastboot boot boot.img and make *some* progress. However, after about 10 seconds, it just crashes and goes back to fastboot. Is there a way to get a log of why it failed?

I've heard that you can't use an international version of the firmware on a Chinese model due to partition size differences. However, the CPH2173 files I have also have all of the partition tables that I could theoretically flash. There's also some files I could use with Qualcomm programming tools if I could get it into EDL mode (assuming it would pass the secure boot checks). I'm a little skeptical about going down this route as it might get this device into an even more bricked state.

I do have another Chinese Find X3 Pro that I can *temporarily* get into EDL mode by tapping the version number in the fastbootd/recovery screen. Unfortunately, it quickly leaves EDL mode before I have a chance to explore what's possible. Has anyone been able to pull off existing partitions via EDL mode?

Any advice for recovering this device?

I installed twrp on my SAMSUNG m12 using "heimdall flash --RECOVERY". When I try to boot however, I get thrown into the bootloop. I only see the logo and every 3-5 seconds the screen goes black and then I'm back to the logo. Rinse and repeat

(I'm running linux as my PC OS)

This video depicts the issue very well however I cant understand a single word and "fastboot devices" gives no output.

"adb devices" shows

Everyone seems to be talking about odin there but I can't use it since I'm on linux. Other than that, they talk only about SD-Cards. Additionally I can't even get to the screen to wipe anything so my only solution appears through adb or fastboot (if I can somehow get it to work).

Every time I reboot, my phone shows the manufacturer's logo then promptly reboots again into recovery and consequently into the bootloop.

@physwizz I have the SM-A336B and I tried flashing all three Android 13 kernel zip files you sent for this device, the last zip file that you sent (A336b-T-physwizz.zip) is the only one that successfully installs for me, the others have the ramdisk error on my device. Even though the last zip installs properly, it does not boot and instead results in a boot loop. I don't know if this is caused by the firmware I'm on which is very recent, I'm on AndyYan's TrebleDroid based LineageOS GSI and the CWF2 firmware which uses software revision (bit) 6 which doesn't even have a vbmeta image with with verification disabled out yet (I had to create one myself).

Try disabling Google Playstore before reboot after installing/activating the app and/or firewall blocking the former.

Google play Services may be involve as well. Disabling that maybe enough.

Just a guess... the app maybe incapable with another system app.

Try clearing the system cache if you have this option. Observe what's running as well when things go south.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Dr. Claw:
Thanks, I'm going to try that.

Is clearing the system cache the thing you do with Power Button + Volume Up when booting?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] blackhawk:
I use Samsung's so it's on my boot menu. Not sure about Sony. Maybe in settings.

Factory reset generally solves nothing except a malware, boot looping problem or a 3rd party app that has altered a hidden setting. Best to find the root cause. Even then you can still end up doing multiple factory resets if you keep loading the same buggy app unwittingly.

If you can find what loads right before the crash or less helpful what's running that will give you clues to why it's happening. Of course find/use the best tools you can to this end.

Try using Apk Export to make an installable copy from a device that it's working on. I avoid using Playstore as much as possible in part because they only give you access to the app's current version... which may suck.

Play with it, eventually you'll track it down. Take a break and but keep at it. Took me close to 3 weeks of on/off "playing" to track down a rogue null mark* on a Android system apk. That silly null mark almost cost me a reload. It couldn't be deleted in app settings either, had to use a 3rd party app to delete it. Google Android can be rascally at times🤣

*by it's behavior I assume that's what it was. I inadvertently trigger a run once at initial first boot apk to run long after first boot. Android then puke on me until I found that. Gave a popup window everytime I charged that wouldn't close unless I rebooted. That got old fast🤣
[Sony Xperia 1 III] kevinmcmurtrie:
Maybe a conflict with Google's SAF that cripples microSd cards? Apps making heavy use of microSd through SAF run slowly, crash, or cause the phone to reboot on stock Android. Samsung and some other phones have a bypass, but not Sony. The only non-root workaround is to get apps outside of Play Store then great permission "Allow management of all files."
