[ASUS ZenFone 8] MarcelBrouette:
Thank you for your fast answer, but I think this is what I don't get, it seems that people here are able to perform "fastboot flash" command and freely change firmware :

It is also my case, or at least any flash command I performed give me the output "OK", this is by this way that I succeed in restoring the asus stock ROM. So, it means that my device is unlock ? Why am I not allowed to performed "flashboot boot". But what is mostly concerning is the fact that flashing boot.img and vendor_img from lineage just make the phone unsuable (no recovery enable and boot on the error message "your phone is corrupted and won't be allowed to boot").

What I want to figure out is if my problem is due to bootloader unlocking problem or simply a mismanipulation in the installation procedure.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] DokanCalp:
You can check if it's unlocked with a fastboot command, something like «fastboot oem device-info» or «fastboot getvar unlocked», google it.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] bnsmb:
The phone shows a message like "The bootloader is unlocked ..." before booting if the bootloader is unlocked. If the message does not appear the bootloader is not unlocked.

This message or something similar is what I would expect doing this on an phone with unlocked boot loader ...

You can not use any of the custom ROMs on a phone with locked boot loader

[ASUS ZenFone 8] MarcelBrouette:
Thanks ! I will check that :)

Hmmmm, I don't have this one, doesn't smell good for me ^^
[ASUS ZenFone 8] zofbtb:
Someone successfully sued Asus for not being able to unlock the bootloader....

ASUS refunds Zenfone buyer for failing to provide bootloader unlock tools as promised

If you bought a Zenfone and expected to be able to unlock the bootloader, a precedent has now been set that you can get a refund.

Has anyone tried the method described here or can tell me where to find the asus page to insert the code?

I need help on updating OpenGL and Vulkan drivers. Has anyone tried updating and may I ask how you did it?

[Samsung Galaxy A02s] Deportivo75:
Good afternoon, I am totally new to firmware and ADB fast boot, and rooting, and very new to the whole replacement of firmware. I have tech knowledge but not much on cellphones software. Would anyone please extend a helping hand on a phone that needs new firmware installed, due to having a pattern lock and Google account lock? when I bought the cellphone it was working fine and all of a sudden it reset and a screen came up as if I had just bought the cellphone ready to install my information and setup. The following information is the specs and firmware and the type of cell phone I have.

Can anyone be kind enough to give me a hand installing firmware or deleting the one I have? Or point me in the right direction to a paid service that actually does do what they say in removing the pattern and Google account from the cell phone for the price they charge. I went on one of the paid sites and they just took my money, please help, thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy A02s] XanderXDA:
Hm...

First, download the latest update: here

If you dont know to flash the update, watch this

Your phone will boot into the os when you flash the firmware..

Second, FRP unlock the phone.

Watch here

Thats it
[Samsung Galaxy A02s] Deportivo75:
Thank you for the reply I tried that but it did not help, here is what took place since then, I got access to the email account and password but it takes me through a loophole back to the same process from setting the wifi up next the pattern lock comes up and then bypass with Gmail account i enter the email account and it starts allover

Reset your phone in recovery and see if that will fix it
[Samsung Galaxy A02s] XanderXDA:
Oops, I thought you mean that you got the phone from somebody, I didnt read the line saying that it was link to your account

oof
[Samsung Galaxy A02s] XanderXDA:
Try it without FRP
[Samsung Galaxy A02s] XanderXDA:
Wait delete all pictures, someone could login your account since you uploaded your email and password
[Samsung Galaxy A02s] XanderXDA:
Ok try it with the FRP tool again
[Samsung Galaxy A02s] XanderXDA:
This is odd
[Samsung Galaxy A02s] XanderXDA:
Try resetting it... again, dont connect to the network and remove your sim card
[Samsung Galaxy A02s] Deportivo75:
Thank you once again, let me give it a try once again. Let me tell you that I contacted Samsung and they advised me that everything on their end is great nothing t do with their software but they tell me it may be a Google issue. I am attaching the conversation, I have tried the SamFw tool and also the

I recently gave this device to my father. He uses dual sim and in both the signal dies completely. Is this normal? Or should I ask for the guarantee? thanks in advance :)
[Redmi Note 12 4G] SigmundDroid:
Oh, a fellow zim fan :love:

Uhm, and these two cards... do they work when put in separately?
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Marce_0c0:
both work perfectly and lose signal where there is supposed to be a perfect signal
[Redmi Note 12 4G] SigmundDroid:
Weird, first time I hear of that. Since a couple of years (like 7+) I use dual SIM (Dual SIM Standby) and it always worked.

Anything you can do in the settings (like which one is active/main)? Your phone is dual standby, I guess?

[Redmi Note 12 4G] stevenf00:
My phone which is Redmi Note 12 4G with dual sim does not have any signal issue. Both are active and working.
[Redmi Note 12 4G] AdiAlvinaNenny:
your problem is the same as what happened to my device. if i use two simcards, the signal is often lost (no service), but if i use one simcard, it's fine.
[Redmi Note 12 4G] SigmundDroid:
BTW, which version do you have HW and SW?

Any updates available? I remember that I had to switch to india to get updates from A11 onward. Without switching region it showed nothing...

Nothing! NOTHING! NNOOTTHHIINNGG!

[Redmi Note 12 4G] Chukwuka23:
I have this same issue, I have to reboot the device for the signal to come back, does anyone know a solution to this?

[Redmi Note 12 4G] siochs:
Dear Friends, this device (topaz) just sucks.

I live in Germany and bought it from a national store. It came with Miui 14 global. I did not change a bit. I use both SIM slots as well. I experienced sporadic GPS failures with Google maps. GPS service always dropped together with modem service - no mobile data no speech.

I inspected logcat during failures but found no exceptional entries...

I flashed Xiaomi EU with the hope of improvement, but did not change a thing. The device felt even worse than my old lavender with pixel experience on it. I went back to stock, locked the bootloader and sent it back to the seller, he forwarded it to a repair factory.

The phone returned after two weeks, now with Miui 14 EU version on it (not xiaomi.eu!). The situation worsened. Now GPS drops after more or less exactly 5min of use. GPS lock does not help. Additionally now mobile data, speech AND WiFi services fail sporadically between 2 to 10 times per hour. They come back after 30 secs but this is just pure garbage.

I sent the device back to the seller a second time and am now waiting for the second repair attempt. If it will continue denying services I will retreat from the buying contract.

My wife bought a redmi note 12 pro 5g the same time. She has no issues at all. So this is a device specific issue I guess
[Redmi Note 12 4G] nepermen:
Mine has the same issue. I live in Indonesia.

I bought this device on August, at first, there is no problem at all. One of my friend bought the same device and a week later he asked me if I'm getting the lost signal and gps problem. I said no, everything is fine.

Apparently, problem occured after I update the firmware to version 14.0.7 through OTA. I assume flashing the older firmware would solve the problem. As one member of the Redmi Note 12 Indonesia in FB Group tried and said so.
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Nadir_Baderoon:
I'm on 14.0.4 with same issue. To resolve, I use used code *#*#4636#*#* to disable and enable power to the sim. No time to worry about it.
[Shield Q&A] leahfern:
Hi all, I am not very experienced in Android development, but I've been tasked to set up Charles Proxy with my 2019 Nvidia Shield Pro... I learned that our app won't proxy correctly with the certificate added to the actual project code (actually, it is added but it doesn't work without code changes and we need to be able to test on release builds). So, I am trying to add the certificate to the Nvidia Shield device, the same way I normally would with FireTV or other Android devices. However, research told me I need to root the device first. I use Mac OS and I've tried following the steps found on this forum to root the device so that I can add the certificate through adb, but I'm just getting stuck...

(https://xdaforums.com/t/bootmod-root-your-shield-in-1-minute-2015-2017-2019.4524873/ ) I am stuck on Step 4 because my MacBook doesn't recognize the Shield when connected by USB. I am wondering if there is someone that can assist me with getting this done? I think I will need individual assistance -- I am willing to compensate someone for their time!

however when I try to open the botloader, im loses it again

is there an instant way to get the full amount without having to wait for the next week?

Sm-n986B ui5.1
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
Disable automatic time and set your time ahead 1 week.

The OEM Unlocking toggle does not unlock your bootloader; it simply functions as a "safety" to allow you to do so. If you did not specifically lock your bootloader by booting into device unlock mode, it is still unlocked.

The reason the OEM Unlocking toggle disappears after an update is because Vaultkeeper/Knox Guard needs to "check" to ensure that the bootloader is actually supposed to be unlocked. If you were to try to flash a custom image while the toggle is not visible, you would probably get a secure check fail error. Once the OEM Unlocking toggle is visible again, the bootloader should be unleashed by KG/Vaultkeeper, and you'll be able to flash custom images.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] JustAnotherClumlsyHacker:
I have 2 Axon 7 A2017G.

For one I have everything - IMEI (sticker on backside, package), for the other I have nothing. But it was working.

I played - with the A2017G where I have no data - long with flashing ROMs until nothing worked any more. I made a dump of the working one with MIFLASH, flashed it to the bricked one and it starts again. But it doesn't see the SIM card any more, IMEI = 0 -- I flashed modemst1, modemst2, fsg, fsc from the working as well. Might be a mistake.

I have no backup from the A2017G that I killed.

What should I do?

What I have:

2 x A2017G, working before I destroyed one of them, both bootloaders unlocked.

Linux PC (if it has to be - a Windows PC as well (..I don't like Mondays, ..I don't like Windows))

Both A2017G are running but the destroyed without IMEI.

Serial number of both (remained the same even after "cloning")

Question: how can I find an IMEI according to my serial number, how can I restore it?

If someone can do it: serial is 8287ecb1

Thanks for help
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] JustAnotherClumlsyHacker:
Solution: The seller still had the original packing material, IMEI was on the backside.

With QFIL I created a QCN file from the working A2017G, restored it on that with the lost IMEI, changed the IMEI with Qualcomm Write IMEI Tool to the original IMEI and everything was OK....
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] &Delinquent[$]:
I don't suppose you could create a QCN sans IMEI information, could you? I have an A2017G that I buggered the IMEI on, and I could never get it working quite right again. Ended up buying a Chinese mainboard but the radio support between China and Europe is different, so I don't get LTE
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] JustAnotherClumlsyHacker:
Hello,

At the moment I have to do something else, but it is interesting for me. My status was: 2 A201G, one of them running LineageOS 16, the other one I destroyed completely (just DFU mode). Actually I try to comprehend how I resolved that problem, which software I used to clone (Linux software) - it was bootable but with IMEI 0: no radio. Repair IMEI (Windows software). It was a long process and now I can no longer understand which drivers I used on Windows to repair the IMEI. But after I know that it is possible I will start again from the beginning and document every step (starting with DFU mode, then cloning and at last repairing IMEI). I will report.

The other issue, no LTE, is a different issue, has nothing to do with IMEI 0. But interesting.

By the way: I just play around, I have: 2 x A2017G, 4 x B2017G, 1 x Sony Z2, 1 x Sony Z3mini, some LG, 2 x Samsung A40, several notebooks, laptops, servers and other junk. I am in the fortunate position that my house is big enough to accommodate it all.

There was a movie - because they don't know what they're doing (Richard Dean). It's about something else, but that's exactly what I do (I don't know what I'm doing) with this junk: repair, collect. I only need one smartphone, one computer...
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] &Delinquent[$]:
Heh, I have a habit of collecting old electronics too.

As far as I know, my issue is just that I used dd on modemst1, and the backup I made was corrupted. I think I can fix it, but I need a copy from another device to do so and I don't have one. The Chinese mainboard I bought has a different radio firmware, and operates on a slightly different frequency - which is why I can't use that to fix it, and why I can't get LTE in the EU
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] nurabdurashid:
I'm using A2017 (chinies version)

I have pretty same issue with LTE. Actually IMEI's okay at least still, but LTE or any other connection on my cell not working. So I cant reciev SMS or CALLS.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] &Delinquent[$]:
Ye the chinese version is a bit hit&miss with global LTE compatibility. That's why I wanted that guy's QFIL so I could maybe fix my G variant. 3g is being turned off in the UK this year
