[ASUS ZenFone 8] nasch007:
Probably a stupid question, but have you tried any of these commands or do you know what they do? Some are self-explanatory like enter dload and reboot, etc. But wondering what they others do. Are they viable for bootloader unlocking? I'm wondering if unlocking our bootloader is as easy as rebooting into fastbootd (userspace?) and doing these commands like oem auth-hash_* and oem asus_unlock/rt-unlock/wm-unlock disable_verity, etc..... I know yours is unlocked/rooted already, but I'm not wanting to take the chance on bricking my ZF8 that I just got back from RMA...
[ASUS ZenFone 8] bnsmb:
Hi

I did not test the commands I do not understand -- I need both of my Z8 working. But I doubt that the bootloader can be unlocked without a working unlock app

[ASUS ZenFone 8] nasch007:
Understandable. I don't know... seems like the way they derive the key or at least actually write it is exposed in the code. I started poking around in .img files using 7-zip and extracting what looks interesting. Lots of references to stuff that looks promising. In the super.img there's a vendor_a.img. In there is the bin folder and that holds a program called asus_osinfo. It looks like this runs and can expose or set what is called "ASUS-MAGIC-NUM!!" https://cloud.binary.ninja/bn/d7c65...?view=Disassembly&il=0&address=8504&func=4436 I think you can dump "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/sysinfo" and that's a field in it. But I'm not 100 and honestly not even that great with Linux, lol.

I'm only assuming that has to do with unlocking as it compares key lengths and there are other strings like fwrite_unlocked, etc. I'm very inexperienced in this area but I'm seeing breadcrumbs.

I'll attach it here as well. There's also a file in system_a.img / system / fake-libs called libunlock.asus.so. Seems like that's a library that contains the unlock logic. But again I'm pulling straws here. Someone much more experienced than me could probably figure it out...
[ASUS ZenFone 8] nasch007:
Are these what you're looking for?
[ASUS ZenFone 8] nasch007:
I'm way out of my element here but it does look like it looks for an /ADF/asuskey.bin ... not sure if this is a file or a program, and I can't find that file in any of the firmware files.

Here's where binary ninja shows that in the libunlock.asus.so:

[ASUS ZenFone 8] MarekPietrzak:
I am attaching asuskey.bin dumped from my ROG 5 with unlocked bootloader, hope that it can be helpful
[ASUS ZenFone 8] nasch007:
Keep in mind that I just received my ZF8 back from the factory. It is not on the most up to date version. It is not bootloader unlocked or rooted. I ran as many of these fastboot oem commands as I could stomach.

All ran from going to adb reboot bootloader. I know there is also a fastbootd which if I recall is accessed by fastboot reboot fastboot, but it's been a while. Any commands that seem to need more permissions I could try in fastbootd (I think this is called userspace?).

Anyway, anything that wanted me to supply args like for auth hashes or partitions to um... partition, I did not do. Anything that seemed like it would break stuff I shied away from as well... if you want to tell me what enable and disable verity does, as well as disable_checkfw, and EnterShippingMode (if you have a best guess even), I'd be willing to try those as well. Anyway, I don't have time to properly format it but if you're interested, here's the results of most of your OEM commands. I censored my serial and other numbers just in case:

Spoiler content hidden.

Hope this is useful to anyone... main thing I was trying to do was find osinfo or ASUS-MAGIC-KEY!! ... I failed.

It looks like this site still has some active development... file manager app was uploaded Nov 2 2023. But besides that, it looks like they have the source code available: https://www.asus.com/supportonly/zenfone 8 (zs590ks)/helpdesk_download/

Is that what yall have been using/analyzing? Or just the actual physical device?
[ASUS ZenFone 8] bnsmb:
Hi

I don't think that there is code to unlock the bootloader in the kernel so these source files will not help

I now think the best method to check how to unlock the bootloader is to disassemble and reengineer the ASUS unlock app - the code to unlock the bootloader must be in that app or in one of the libraries it's using.

Bernd
[ASUS ZenFone 8] nasch007:
That makes sense. I was looking to see if there's any sort of magic key or dev strings that they left in... since I'm not rooted I can only see so much by poking around in adb shell. But frankly I'm way out of my element here. I've read your threads and you and a few others really seem to know what you're talking about so if you think rewriting the apk is viable, that's the way all the bright minds here should shift :)
[ASUS ZenFone 8] JustAStrangeName:
Sorry for reviving an older thread.

Do you happen to also know your "secrettoken"?
[ASUS ZenFone 8] MarekPietrzak:
Do you know where it is stored? I can dump any partition as root but I don't know where this "secrettoken" is stored
[ASUS ZenFone 8] JustAStrangeName:
I'm afraid I don't. The only way to get it that I know of is intercepting the data that the Asus Unlock apps sends using a proxy.

Thanks, though!

[Samsung Galaxy Watch 5] rogerperk:
Got an update the other day and now WFS won't connect to my Galaxy Watch 5. On the watch I turn off BT, turn on wifi, go to developer options and turn on ADB debugging and wireless debugging, it says it sees the right wifi, the IP address is correct. Seems the app just doesn't see it. Or the watch isn't doing the handshake for some reason. I'm using Wear4 on the watch and the WFS version is 1.5.7. Personally I think it's hinky stuff on the watch from the update because nothing touched the app. Just the watch.

Stumped and I have watch faces to load! Any ideas??

Thank god someone else with the same issue, and I mean that in the nicest way, I have a Galaxy 5 pro and since that same update to One UI Version 5.0 I now can't connect to WFS, my favourite watchface is on there and I can't even get it back, been looking everywhere to see if anyone else was having the same issue.

Which model? Exynos vs Snapdragon may have different settings.

That being said, my Snapdragon has settings for "Color Adjustment". You may check if that got enabled or something?

Beyond that, it could be another app doing adjustments... or hardware failure.

[General Topics] user0u:
Here I am putting together some common Miflash errors and their fixes.

First the basics. Always use "clean all".

View attachment 6010729

The reason I do not recommend "clean all and lock" is that a lot of times due to any of the innumerable factors, something is flashed that results in a bootloop even after flashing ends successfully. Now if you have selected "clean all and lock" in this scenario, you cannot do anything as you have now locked the bootloader. The only fix here would be to EDL flash but most new Xiaomi phones do not allow users to do that.

Also make sure you do not disconnect the phone while it is flashing as doing so could result in a hard brick!

Now onto the errors.

Error 1: Not allowed in locked state.

View attachment 6010623

This one's easy. This error means you have not unlocked the bootloader yet. Unlock it.

Error 2: Antirollback check error.

View attachment 6010625

This error occurs because you are trying to install an older version of the ROM (downgrading). Miflash does not allow that. To bypass this, open the flash_all.bat file in your ROM folder using notepad and delete the selected lines as shown in the image below, press ctrl+s to save the changes, and close the file. Done!

View attachment 6010635

Error 3: Only nop and sig tag can be received before authentication.

View attachment 6010637

This one is for the poor souls who have hard bricked their phones and are now scratching their heads over this fresh nightmare at 3 in the morning.

This error occurs when you are trying to flash the phone in EDL mode. It means you are using the stock firehose loader from the ROM folder which is useless to us. If you are among the lucky ones whose device has a leaked firehose loader available, all you have to do is replace the stock firehose loader(s) from the ROM folder with the leaked one. If you don't have a leaked loader, then you're out of luck. You will have to take the phone to a Xiaomi authorized service center to fix it. Or find and pay a third party to do it for you remotely.

Bonus

Locking the bootloader:

If you want to lock the bootloader, you might be wondering how you could do that when I don't recommend the "flash all and lock" option. The answer is simple. When you have flashed the ROM that you wanted, boot into it once and make sure everything is working fine. After that, use the command "fastboot oem lock" in fastboot mode to lock the bootloader. Note that this will factory reset your phone.

Booting to EDL mode:

If you want to boot to EDL mode, use "fastboot oem edl" in fastboot mode.

[P3300, MDA Compact III General] pjw29:
Hi,

I Have a problem with my O2 orbit. The power but will stop responding when the device is locked in standby (power button pressed after locked), the lights on the top of the orbit will continue flashing but it wont turn back on.

I thought it was a curropt OS so i reflashed the original wm5 back onto the orbit and it seemed ok, so I then flashed the o2 release of wm6 onto it, and then started installing all my programs. Soon after this i locked it and put it into standby, about 20mins later i couldn't switch it back on. Thinking it may be one of my progrmas that has caused this I hard resetes but same thing happened again! :confused:

This is not the first time this has happened to me, 4 months after i first got the orbit (about this time last year) the same thing happened and O2 replaced it. Then in easter it happened again, O2 sent it off for repair and it came back apparently fixed. But here we are 8 months later with the same problem. :mad:

Has anybody else experienced this? Does anyone know a solution? Is it a problem with the software? Or maybe the firmware? Or is it a hardware problem and I am screwed? :(

Thanks in advanced if anyone can help! :)
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] pjw29:
Futher Developments

I have been experimenting on different roms with the problem, i loaded up Carty's Fastest WM6.1 rom, and the orbit worked. I slowly reinstalled the programs i had installed. The program seemed to work, then when S2U2 was installed it seemed to die again. :mad:

I previously flashed back to WM5 and then reupgraded back to WM6 and only installed the SDHC driver an hour later. Before this the device seemed ok, but then sometime after (not sure as it was in my pocket) it died again. :mad:

So I am unsure if it is a problem with hardware or if it is the S2U2 causing it, or the SDHC? or both?

Has anyone had any of these problems? I'd really like some help, I would hate to have to keep using my stone age nokia! :eek:
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] pjw29:
I GIVE UP!!!

Ok, the final verdict is that it must be a hardware issue. I have tried just running normal roms, and i get the same problems when no software is installed. :mad:

When i return home after new years i shall take into o2 and hope they can either fix or replace it for the 3rd time. Im still shocked that this has happened 3 times to me and it seems to of never happened to anyone else on this site, strange! :rolleyes:

Oh well, it could be worse! :) Thanks, though no-one really helped, thanks just for the existence of such a brilliant site!!!!

i got a big problem.

I thought this is a very good customisable program.. but..

1) MY now screen is still the same.. it has clock weather and 4 icons below.. etc THATS IT

how do i - get speed dials on it. a few fav programs/shortcut.

2) How do i auto start it on start up?

i did tried my best to play with my settings but nothing done.. for example.. i tried to customise my now screen but i get a box of installed plug ins showing 0 installed

[XPERIA X1 General] scootie:
Hi!

You can customise your today screen:

SPB menu->Settings->Today->Items(bottom)

You can add,remove,set things.There are more dial tabs.

OR

my solution:

clear today screen,but everything at hand

I use the now screen set to the left soft button,after that I can use the SPB menu,contacts.
