Hello

I found how to get rid of orange state error after unlocking bootloader for ONLY MTK DEVICES Orange State
Your device is unlocked and cannot be trusted, rebooting in 5 seconds

Requirements :

1-A stock (flashable) ROM of your current version (make sure it is the current version as Ur ROM , or else there will be a brick)

2 - A pc / laptop and a usb cable

2- Hex Editor / text editor (of course not word pad 😂)

Note : I am NOT responsible for any damages to your phone

Note before starting : If you are noob at this and cannot do anything, just tell me here ( not in a Private Message), type your device name , download CPU z and take screenshots of everything inside this app ( to know your device's properties) and send them here and I will guide u how to solve Ur problem

Stage 1 : Download & Extract

Simply, Download your stock rom (Choose Flashable one , if available)

Extract the frimware

Get this file : lk.img

Stage 2 : Edit

************IMPORTANT NOTE BEFORE CONTINUING*************

Spoiler content hidden.

Open lk.img file using hex editor/ text editor

Search for the error message Orange state
Your device is unlocked and cannot be trusted, rebooting in 5 seconds and remove it (if u can't remove it , simply send your lk.img file here and I will remove it)

Stage 3 : Flashing

We may try fastboot as most of your devices has fastboot (if u don't have fastboot or cannot use it , tell me here and I will help)

Firstly, download Platform Tools Here , or from Here (recommended)

(Skip tutorial of installing adb if u installed it already)

After extraction, open cmd ( in the bar at the top of windows explorer, that shows the current directory u r in) , open USB debugging in Developer options (to unlock developer options, go to settings>about phone>click 7 times on your build number and enter Ur password) type adb devices usually your phone serial no. Appears, if no and there is a popup in your phone , accept it , and type adb devices again.

Type adb reboot bootloader to boot to fastboot , after booting to fastboot successfully, type fastboot devices to check if your pc can detect your phone in fastboot mode or not.

Copy your edited lk.img file to the place u extracted adb and fastboot file , then type (fastboot flash lk lk.img) and when finishes, reboot and u r done!

If any errors happens with u , pls tell me

Also , if there is a mistake made here in this thread , pls notify me too , I will edit this guide anytime I discover a mistake/ add a point

Hello,

I got an old Huawei P-Smart for testing purposes. My daughter was using it until she got a new one.

It's running unofficial LineageOS 16 from here.

I downloaded the last EMUI 9.1 OTA which I had to install prior LOS 16 und tried to extract the right image, but I have no clue. I extracted some, opened them with a hex editor, but none of them seemed to be the right image.

I need your support, maybe I'm still a noob :)

English is not my native language. Excuse mistakes pls

Sir, can i flash using magisk?

I didn't try that honestly, but I guess it may work with you.
[Android General] Altairo13:
Hello !

First of all, thank you very much for this tutorial !

I followed it, but my device still boots in a loop. It just doesn't say "Orange State

Your device is unlocked and cannot be trusted, rebooting in 5 seconds"

What should I do?
[Android General] ZG_DEV:
You will have to remove that text too.

Wait your phone is in Bootloop ??
[Android General] Altairo13:
Yes, my phone (or rather my tablet (the Lenovo Tab M10 FHD plus X606F)) is in bootloop. I removed everything I could : the orange state, the red state and I thought I'd removed the 5 seconds, but apparently not...
[Android General] ZG_DEV:
Well, that's very strange, I assume you have unlocked the bootloader, now you have to reflash stock ROM, then try the 2nd method.(only if your device is android 11 and above)
[Android General] Jinnu0920:
this methods removes orange state message right? not the orange state itself?

also a quote from a different guide

"5 Seconds wait

-for Android under 10, look for code 7B441B681B68012B and mark the 4 pairs (8 digits) starting from 08B5**** and replace it with 08B5002008BD1B681B68012B (paste insert).

-for Android 10 and above, look for code 7B441B681B68022B and mark the 4 pairs (8 digits) starting from 08B5**** and replace it with 08B5002008BD1B681B68022B (paste insert)."

i cant find either of these strings , mabye cause i am on android 14?
[Android General] Altairo13:
Yes, that's what I thought.

So I've tried that, but I'm still stuck in the bootloop...
[Android General] Altairo13:
Unfortunately my tablet is only compatible up to Android 10...
[Android General] ZG_DEV:
Then, you only have to reflash stock ROM until I find you a real good solution.

Sorry if I disturbed you.
[Android General] Altairo13:
Ok I'll do that... Thanks for your help and let me know if you find a solution!

[Google Pixel 7a] devildogwillbur:
The annoying warning that your bootloader is unlocked is so stupid... we all know what we got into when we unlocked and rooted our phones. The message and the extra time it takes to bootup should be turned off. I have searched many times, and found nothing helpful. Today I thought I could ask googles bard. I got an answer that could be helpful. I searched in my files and found something and asked bard about it.

Yes, you can edit the libbootloader_message.so file to disable the unlocked bootloader warning on your Pixel 7a. However, this is a risky process and it is not recommended for beginners. If you are not comfortable with modifying system files, you should not attempt this.

To edit the libbootloader_message.so file, you will need to:

Boot your phone into fastboot mode.

Connect your phone to your computer.

Use a file explorer to navigate to the /system/lib/ directory on your phone.

Find the libbootloader_message.so file and open it in a text editor.

Search for the line that starts with const char *bootloader_message.

Change the value of this line to an empty string.

Save the file and exit the text editor.

Reboot your phone.

The unlocked bootloader warning should now be disabled. However, it is important to note that this is a temporary fix. The warning message will be restored the next time you flash a new firmware image to your phone.

If you do not want to see the warning message , you will need to lock the bootloader.

Please note that editing the libbootloader_message.so file is a risky process and it can lead to serious problems if you are not careful. If you are not comfortable with modifying system files, you should not attempt this.

I personally have not touched the file. I wanted to get other people's opinions and thoughts. Has anyone tried this? Is there a way to remove the warning that I missed?
[Google Pixel 7a] Renate:
This Bards stuff sounds like nonsense.

In fastboot there is no system mounted and you don't have a shell anyway.

Opening a binary ELF file in a text editor? Good luck.

This is not source code, you won't see any text.

There are only two ways to get rid of the message and the pause:

The OEM put in some secret configuration somewhere to disable it

You patch abl to disable it.

I've done #2 to a device once but that was only possible because the device did not have SecureBoot enabled.

99.9% of all devices have SecureBoot enabled.

Patching abl breaks the SecureBoot chain of trust.

I have very low sound on notification and system sounds and want to go back to previous version 2.0.1.

Can someone post the steps how to do it.

Tried too flash the package but that don`t work, need i to unpack the firmware payload.bin and then flash all one by one or is there a other way.

Thx
[Nothing Phone 2] dlads:
You could perhaps roll back to 2.0.1 with the full zip using *#*#682#*#*

Haven't tried this method but I may work.

Or could extract the payload.bin then flash with fastboot enhance, that should almost certainly work and it's the method I would use.

Although I would certainly factory reset before committing to rolling back if you haven't already.
[Nothing Phone 2] xtcislove:
I wont risk it for now. On the nothing phone we needed the super.img + full firmware. We dont have it for the NP2.
[Nothing Phone 2] dlads:
I didn't know that, would that be the case using fastboot enhance too?
[Nothing Phone 2] xtcislove:
i dont know. But we had full firmwares for a long time on the np1 and downgrade was not possible. Someday we got the super.img for example 1.3 and could downgrade since then.
[Nothing Phone 2] xtcislove:
Nothing Phone 1 unbrick/downgrade was the same:

I meant it will cost the same as using your mobile internet data. If you have unlimmited data plan it shouldn't cost you a penny.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers] ijamestaylor111:
Hey ,

I understand you're facing some difficulties installing custom ROMs on your device, resulting in a black screen issue. I'd be more than happy to help you out with this problem.

First of all, let's ensure that you've followed the correct steps for flashing the custom ROM. Custom ROM installations can be tricky, and a single misstep can lead to various issues. Here are some suggestions to troubleshoot the black screen problem:

Verify the ROM's Compatibility: Make sure the custom ROM you're trying to install is specifically designed for your exact device model. Installing a ROM meant for a different variant can cause compatibility issues.

Backup and Clean Installation: Before proceeding with any custom ROM installation, create a full backup of your current setup. Then, perform a clean installation by wiping your device's data, cache, and system partitions. This helps eliminate conflicts with previous configurations.

Download the ROM from a Trusted Source: Always download custom ROMs from reputable sources like XDA Developers. This ensures you get a clean and stable version of the ROM.

Check Custom Recovery: Ensure that you're using a custom recovery like TWRP or CWM to flash the ROM. Using the correct version of the custom recovery is essential for a successful installation.

Verify MD5 Checksum: After downloading the custom ROM, check its MD5 checksum to confirm that the file is not corrupt.

GApps Compatibility: If you're flashing Google Apps (GApps) alongside the custom ROM, make sure you've downloaded the correct version that matches the ROM's Android version.

Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache: Once the installation is complete, wipe the cache and Dalvik cache from the recovery menu to prevent potential conflicts.

Avoid Multitasking: During the installation process, avoid performing any other tasks on your device to minimize the chances of errors.

Seek Community Support: If the issue persists, visit the XDA Developers forum thread related to your device model and custom ROM. Many experienced users are willing to help and might have faced similar issues.

Remember, installing custom ROMs always comes with a certain level of risk. Ensure you have a backup and are comfortable with the process before proceeding.

I hope these suggestions help you resolve the black screen issue. If you have any further questions or encounter any specific error messages, feel free to ask for more assistance. Good luck with your custom ROM journey!

Best regards,

James

[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] yassineryo:
Hello,

Last week, my little brother got a used Samsung A70 phone. However, the phone's screen was changed due to damage to the original one. After using the phone, I noticed that it is somewhat slow, even though it has 6 GB of RAM and a Snapdragon 675 processor. The phone is almost empty of personal data such as photos, videos, and programs. I have already deleted and disabled many previously installed programs, and I have tried various solutions from the internet before reaching out for help. I even attempted a radical reset, but the problem persists.

I have had successful experiences flashing and repairing Android phones, so I have two questions regarding this issue:

1. The phone was initially released with the Android 9 version, and at that time, it was supposed to be efficient and powerful. Can I downgrade the Android version back to 9? I previously upgraded it to Android 11, but the problem remains.

2. I am aware that support for this phone model has been discontinued. If I do downgrade the Android version to 9, will the phone's efficiency return to its previous state?

I hope you can provide answers to my questions.

Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Welcome to XDA

You should have left it on Pie. The highest I would go is 10. My opinion.

If it's a Snapdragon you may not be able to roll it back from 11. I've heard of some here that have.

Don't go to 12...

All Samsung's need to be optimized. Avoid disabling the many Samsung system apps; they modify the UI and most are needed for usability and functionality.

Know what you are disabling and any dependencies. Target the power hogs and completely worthless junk like Device Wellbeing.

I have a problem on my Dasaita HA7015-K720 BMW Android 7.1 head unit, the previous owner have updated the unit with a 8.1 android update that i dont think worked properly, because my google services have never worked since i bought it. I have been trying to get the firmware from Dasaita, but the download link is dead and i get no reply from them on their websde, facebook or on Aliexpress. Its a 1280x480 10.25" Bmw E70 X5 CCC head unit with a PX3 Android 7.1 system with 2GB Ram and 32GB storage. Do anyone know what the problem might be regarding the non working google services error prompt thats coming all the time on the screen? I can not enter google apps as i only get a error prompt when i do, so the app side of the unit is non-working at all.
