What caused it stop working?

In your screenshot above, the line that says:

SW Ver.:

alps-mp-n0. mp2-V1_hct6580. weg. n_P150

You should do a Google search using that, it might find a copy of the original firmware to restore the device to its original state.

Your screenshot also shows your CPU series(mt6580) and your board series(z3q)

You should be doing Google searches using that CPU series and the board series in your search terms. For example, do a Google search for:

"mt6580 z3q firmware"

Or something similar.

The chances aren't good that you will find a solution because cloned devices are so hacked together that you can't even trust the information that the device gives you to identify itself and it's hardware/software. A lot of times they will say that they are "this" when they are actually "that" or that it has "this" installed when it actually has "that" installed.

There are some Russian sites/forums that might be able to help you find a software version that works on your specific motherboard/CPU architecture. It might not be an "exact" fit but you might be able find something that works, though, some features may not work or may work but not work like they "should".
[General Questions and Answers] alcoon30:
Thank you for the reply.

I don't know exactly, it was having more and more trouble going to android, then by force it got stuck on the phone's boot logo.

Hardware problems? Software problems? That's why I'm trying to reinstall the rom to see if that can help it work again.

I tried all these searches, without precisely finding a downloadable rom, that's why I turned to this forum hoping to find a solution?

I hope I don't just have to put the phone in the trash ?:(
[General Questions and Answers] alecxs:
it was trash already before, mt6580 is not 5G
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Russian sites have firmware for all kinds of obscure or cloned device, they also have people that might be able to help you find something close enough to work and then help you piece together a fully working firmware to make everything work like it should, use Google Translate in your browser. If you dig deep enough for long enough, you might get lucky.
[General Questions and Answers] alecxs:
literally first google result firmware.gem-flash.com (5 bucks)
[General Questions and Answers] alcoon30:
Thanks, I'll try to do my research.

I also saw this link before making this subject, you have to pay to be able to recover this, I try first to find free downloads, I don't trust the payment of this kind of site too much.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
When an un-preferred answer/solution is so obvious and prevalent but an alternative answer/solution is not obvious or prevalent, this is usually a good indicator that a more preferred solution is not very likely. Sometimes people are not looking for the answer/solution that they "need", rather they will only be satisfied with the answer/solution that they "want", while ignoring the answer/solution that has already shown itself to be the answer/solution that will work. A completely fallacious way of thinking, like looking for another way to add 2+2 to get 4 when adding 2+2 to get 4 is already shown to be the way to do it. Humans, go figure, lol.

hi

whenever i delete folders like movies music etc

later they keep beeing created again

anyway to stop them for beeing recreated?
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] BigChungus321:
There isn't a way to remove them, as they are part of Android. Even a newly inserted SD Card will have them. And yes I do find it irritating that it exists. You can, however, prevent apps from creating random folders in your storage. Technically, it's not stopping the app but it's just hiding the folders in Android/data/pkg.name for more organization. The app is called Storage Isolation available in Play Store. Requires root and zygisk/riru.
[XPERIA X1 General] ipporek:
Just wondering if X1's screen is more flimsy than other screens. Noticed a slight dent/depression near the top of my screen and been wondering whether it all along was like that or cos the screens more flimsy than other phones. Cos don't think I've been pressing too hard. Own a Touch Pro too and have been using that for a longer time and the screen's still ok. Anyone else notice any dent/depression in your screen?
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] Alexandro133:
Goodevening everyone, I've rooted my phone two months ago and Xiaomi launched a new MIUI update for my device: V13.0.5.0.SJZEUXM, while my currently MIUI ROM is V13.0.2.0.SJZEUXM. I've been looking everywhere for guides and tutorials on how to correctly and safely update my phone while also keeping root with all my apps and settings intact. I have TWRP as custom recovery and using Xiaomi Firmware Updater to download MIUI's ROMs. I personally don't trust old guides as they might be outdated and I don't want to cause any damage or completely brick my main device. I hope the answers to this thread might also help others in the future. Thank you!

[Introductions] ffreylu00x:
so the whole entire length of me having some sort of device, ive yet to have a device that I can root successfully. I seem to always be having the phone or device that hasnt been worked out yet. so after a long stint away I have come back to try and bring back this LG Stylo 5 to life again. I currently have a broken Stylo 6 which is on its way out so Im desperately trying to get the 5 working before it no longer works.

I also have a 4th gen ipad icloud locked that Im trying to figure out also. its been a couple years since I really dove into trying to figure out if the stylo 5 bootloader can be unlocked, and to my surprise it seems like there is more info pertaining to it than before!

I wanted to officially ask though, HAS ANYONE COME ACROSS A WAY TO BYPASS FRP on an LG STYLO 5 (LMQ720)

thanks guys I hope everyone is having a good start to their year!!!

POCO F1 Mi Unlock status stuck, keeps saying "Connect to network and try again" while mobile net is ok

I have the same problem as there:

https://xdaforums.com/t/mi-unlock-s...try-again-while-net-is.4150973/#post-88086917

and spent on it 10+ hours..
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] NOSS8:
Check that everything is correct:

Unlock bootloader

https://new.c.mi.com/global/post/101245

and ignore the error.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] kamerek:
"Connect to network and try again" while mobile internet is working OK - tried to log out and log in again many times, even tried : fastboot oem unlock - and then in cmd it says - not possible - locked phone

So basically the developer options in android 10 in POCO f1 (miui 12 global) in the MI unlock status - add account and device - > cant adde hone there..

FInd phone is working OK, I just checked all options that I found here in xda for - registered also new MI account , wiped old one and ..the same.

seen and did Your tutorial many times - never passed through :

5. Link the device to your Mi account in Settings > Additional settings > Developer options > Mi Unlock status

as

Connect to .. and try again - while Mobile data is OK.

Seems like servers are not allowing me to connect to them.

My phone is also after reset to factory default - by the fact I did fastboot lock > and then I restored phone - but nothing changed -> seems like bug in Miui 12 OR servers not allowing to add device and account to procedure of unlocking (I am from EU)
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] NOSS8:
Check here that the phone appears and that everything matches.

Several unsuccessful attempts can block the procedure.

Preferably use your email address linked to the account rather than the phone number.

A factory reset can be useful (not 100% guaranteed).

Edit:

Following your previous post, this may come from your mobile provider and/or your plan or from Xiaomi (similar case with a poco X3 nfc).

Steps to fix:

1. Change Region Settings to Singapore (Settings App -> Additional Settings -> Region -> Singapore)

2. Use a Singapore VPN (Don't disconnect the VPN till the end.)

3. Log out from your Mi Account

4. Click on create an account, make sure your VPN is still connected and choose Country/Region to Singapore and create a new mi account

5. Go to Mi Unlock Status and it should work now

These are the steps which I followed to get this issue fixed. Tell me if it works for you.

Mi Unlock Status | Connect to network and try again

I have already tried to just unlock the bootloader without the mi unlock status but i got an error that I can't unlock without doing that... you should try to connect your phone to mi account on phone some times, then connect to pc and it will work

Is anything out there that allows you to pick a unique sound to play when you get a text from different contacts. Same principle as setting a specific ringtone to a contact, but with SMS? So when Bob texts me, it plays sound A to notify me, when Sally texts me, it plays sound B.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bmwdroid:
@ethical_haquer I wil give it a try next time I find a device I wouldn't mind loosing.

Which Linux are you using?

Will the VM survive a reboot?

I use Windows on my dual boot PCs just audio stuff and for flashing TWRP or stock firmwares.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ethical_haquer:
I'm using PureOS, it's based off Debian, but VirtualBox runs on many different flavors of Linux. The VM runs fine, shutting it down with "shutdown /s " shuts it down safely.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bmwdroid:
I wanted to know if I have to redo the VM installation procedure every time after a Linux shutdown or if the VM survives?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ethical_haquer:
No, the virtual machine is stored on it's own virtual disk on the drive. I have shut down my computer many times, and the VM still runs fine.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ethical_haquer:
Let me know how it goes when you do it. :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Pierro29:
Thanks @ethical_haquer , I'm ready to try the method, but I'm asking why do you recommand only 1 cpu ? Is it really a problem to set more ?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ethical_haquer:
You can use more than one CPU if you'd like, see here, but sometimes people have problems setting it up, and you don't really need more than one CPU if you're just using the VM for flashing. That's why I didn't include it in this tutorial. If you want more than one CPU to be used, feel free to though. Let me know if you encounter any issues when following the directions.:)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bmwdroid:
I will but didn't have the necessity yet.

Realized although that I may have to get another key from somewhere.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ethical_haquer:
What key?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bmwdroid:
the activation key.

Don't have one as I installed 8.1 as OEM on the notebook and then upgraded to 11 without needing one.

The 8.1 key isn't printed on the back but just worked.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Pierro29:
Activation is mandatory for this method ?

Another question, Odin V3.14.4 is better? or is it safer to stay with V3.13.1 ?

Thanks
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ethical_haquer:
No, I think @bmwdroid is talking about something with his phone.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bmwdroid:
I meant the Windows key
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ethical_haquer:
What Windows key? I can head over to the Windows website I linked to and download it without any key.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] webhook:
You can use a KMS activator. Free and easy
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bmwdroid:
I know and did but thought I need one for installing it on the VM.

At least that's what I understood from reading this:

<will begin the Windows install process just as you might see when installing natively on a PC>
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ethical_haquer:
I just looked through the instructions you linked to, and I didn't see anything talking about activation keys. This isn't the exact same as installing it on a PC, as we are downloading an ISO image in this guide. I know you don't need a key because I followed this guide myself after I created it to make sure I didn't forget anything.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] webhook:
You do not need a product key to use Windows 10. I think you can skip the product key prompt.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] fl0wedm:
Hello fellow Linux user,

Might I suggest another similar method: QEMU and Libvirt (VirtManager). The only difference is it's lighter and more configurable than Virtualbox. USB passthrough is much simpler to setup in my experience and setup isn't terribly hard. I seem to have an issue with VBOX drivers, so this became my workaround for anything VM related.

You can install using the following commands:

DEBIAN:

sudo apt update && sudo apt install qemu virt-manager

ARCH:

sudo pacman -Syu qemu-full virt-manager

FEDORA:

sudo dnf update && sudo dnf install qemu qt-virt-manager

GENTOO:

sudo emerge --ask --verbose app-emulation/qemu virt-manager

When I booted up Windows 10 on VirtualBox, following my tutorial, I didn't see any key prompt. The only thing I've heard about keys, accounts, etc, is that Windows might ask for you to create an account after a month, but I've been using it for longer than that without it prompting me, so who knows.

Just to clear up any confusion, you DO NOT NEED ANY KEY WHATSOEVER to install Windows 10 on VirtualBox. I know because I have personally installed Windows 10 according to my own directions, and there was no key prompt and no account needed. Unless you have followed this tutorial yourself, don't assume you need a key, please do not confuse people. If you have actually followed this tutorial and for some reason needed a key, than let me know, but once again, I did not need a key when I installed and booted it.

Here is a screenshot of Windows 10 running in VirtualBox (installed according to my tutorial, with no key) I took of proof that it works, notice the date and time:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bmwdroid:

Reinstallation didn't do it.

Not going to try to get it working any longer as stated above.

Have dual boot with a running W11 anyhow.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ethical_haquer:

@ethical_haquer thx when I tried and failed with 40GB which was enough afaik.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ethical_haquer:
Yeah, I knew 20GB would be enough for Windows itself, but I wasn't thinking about apps/firmware. Worst case, people can store the firmware on a thumb drive and access it from there (Like I had to do :)).

Hello

I wanted to thank you for this tutorial because I successfully flashed TWRP into my tablet thanks to you

And I respect people who take the time to write long ass tuto to help other people

One part I found confusing was when you talk about editing either "dkms.conf" or "blacklist.conf"

Thing is I've got both files on my system.

So... I ended editing... both

About adding one's user to the vboxusers group, the command you gave :

sudo usermod -a -G vboxusers $USER

That one didn't seem to fully work : I had zero USB devices listed in VirtualBox after issuing that one

So what I ended up doing was searching for some other tuto and came up with :

sudo gpasswd -a myusername vboxusers

And finally it worked I had my tablet listed !
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ethical_haquer:
Thanks! You just reminded me that I need to update the part where you edit blacklist.conf. In reality, if it doesn't already exist you can just create it, so you can remove the line from dkms.conf if you want. :ROFLMAO: As for adding yourself to the vboxusers group, did you reboot right afterwards? By the way, how did you find this thread? 🤔
