[Xiaomi 12 Pro] Akunh121:
My warranty on this phone is over

How much it will cost to fix it?
[Xiaomi 12 Pro] NOSS8:
This can be the camera module or the motherboard or the connecting flex cable or all 3.

What was replaced last time?

Perform the update to be sure and certain that it is a HW problem.

Edit:

The motherboard is $370 on ali, $60 module, $20 cable:oops:

to this add the glue kit.
[Xiaomi 12 Pro] Akunh121:
They replaced the motherboard last time
[Xiaomi 12 Pro] NOSS8:
There remains the module or the connecting cable but it may be the motherboard which is defective again.

The replacement of the motherboard may still be guaranteed, see with the repairer since it is the same failure.
[Xiaomi 12 Pro] Akunh121:
Ok

Thank you for your help

I appreciate that
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RigacciOrg:
I'm trying to root the Blackview BV5300 (EEA), running Android 12.

I successfully created a scatter file from files extracted from the phone flash using the SP Flash Tool and WwR MTK tools (I cannot find any firmware archive on the net for this phone), then I extracted the boot.img and vbmeta.img files.

Then I unlocked the bootloader causing the factory reset and the Orange state warning. Using Magisk v26.1 I patched the boot.img and flashed it back into the phone. I also flashed vbmeta.img using the --disable-verity and --disable-verification options.

Unfortunately this resulted in a bootloop, that I can recover via VolumeUp + Power => Fastboot and flashing back the original boot.img and vbmeta.img.

NOTICE: just flashing the vbmeta.img with --disable-verity and --disable-verification while keeping the original boot.img causes the bootloop too.

NOTICE: I tried to flash with --disable-verity and --disable-verification also the vbmeta_system and vbmeta_vendor partitions, but the bootloop remains.

What should be the next try? I read that a custom signed vbmeta.img can be a solution, but it is a bit complicated. The phone does not have a system partition, but a super one; does this make any difference?

Here you can find a log of the tries so far: https://www.rigacci.org/wiki/doku.php/doc/appunti/hardware/blackview_bv5300
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RigacciOrg:
Hello to all, I'm very happy to announce that rooting worked! What it was needed is to:

Sign the boot.img created by Magisk with a key.

Create a custom vbmeta.img using that key for the boot partition.

Flash the boot.img and vbmeta.img in fastboot mode.

I will write detailed instruction on my blog (see link above) and eventually paste them here.
[MX Player] abreeze:
I see the new version you add the cutting function to player, then why don't saving as the original video and audio format just like the media. I use to saving part of the media in Windows platform by the 'mkvtoolnix' and 'Boilsoft Video Splitter'.This two softwares can save the media as the original format don't reduce the quality, and the 'Boilsoft Video Splitter' has a better setting to the saved file name, for example we cutting the 16:11-16:58, it will add the time to the file name ( [Futoku no Guild][06][1080P][AT-X](00h16m11s-00h16m58s) ),its very well!

I hope the MX Player can also add the picture capture function and saving the picture just as the media's original quality, if that, MX Player will be perfect! In Windows platform, the MPC-be and the lasted MPC-HC add the exact position time to the captured picture of the media file name,that's very convenient for saving the pictures we want.

Hello , i was trying to install xiaomi.eu on mu f3 , i dont know what went wrong , during installation the screen turned black (it was fastboot)

Waited for 20 mins , no change , so unplugged the phone , no response from any buttons

Sent to a local xiaomi service , said that it needs a board replacement , but the price is equall to the newest poco F5 price for that board so obv i refused 😂

So , is there any method or trials to unbrick it as i dont trust the service center ? Any trial to do to make sure that it may not be hardware related ?

Thanks

[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] user0u:
What you need is to EDL flash the stock ROM. But since EDL flashing is locked by Xiaomi, you need someone with an authorized xiaomi account.

There are a few people who have had their hard bricked phones resurrected this way remotely. You can search the forum for these details.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] BlueIce987:
You mean to make someone flash the rom for me ? how much does it cost for that process if you know ?
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] user0u:
Yes. I do not know how much it costs. I have never done this myself. You can search the forum.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] BlueIce987:
I found varying things , like how does device manager detects the phone and how does miunlocktool detects it , i will try tomorrow when i get the phone and post here again about how does the PC detects it , thanks

Well , i will try to get it tomorrow , and see what can be done with it , thanks for the reply

Well , i will try to get it tomorrow or the day after and see what i can do with it , thanks for the reply

Then i will post here or make a new question thread seeking help if i failed , dunno why it happened in the first place , maybe using that cmd method was not correct and i should have researched more about that TWRP method

If you could , could you link me to a good proper guide to install xiaomi.eu on the poco phones or redmi phones in general ? because the video i used turned to be very bad it seems ....
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] user0u:
Do not use direct fastboot flashing unless you know what you're doing.

You should flash stock ROMs only using Miflash. There are lots of tutorials on youtube about that.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] BlueIce987:
No , the mistake , if i think correctly , is that i tried to install Xiaomi.eu using that cmd method , not using TWRP method , it did give an error during its installation but i was afraid of touching anything , i think i did something wrong with it

But can flashing a wrong rom result in complete failure of the phone's board ? i find it hard to believe , but when i get the phone , how to make sure that the board is not damaged ? by checking device manager while phone is connected or some other method ?
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] user0u:
This is not a failure of the board. The motherboard is fine. It is just that you have installed something that the phone refuses to boot into. The motherboard does not require replacememt at all. Unless there is physical hardware damage.

You only need EDL flash.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] BlueIce987:
I thought so , thats why i did not trust the service center words at all
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] BlueIce987:
Hello , i got the phone , tried the cmd commands in the link , but i dont think they work

As shown in the picture , i guess the only solution is to open the phone and try the short circuit thing ?

Also , on device manager , it shows the mobile as QUSB_BULK_CID:0412_SN:F753ABF2

Is this normal ?
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] user0u:
If the phone is in EDL mode it should show up as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 in device manager.

I think there is a way to get it to boot into EDL without opening the back panel. But I don't remember which button combination to press. Maybe try holding power down or a combinations of power + volume and simultaneously connect it to the pc to see if that does anything.

But after that you'll need someone with an authorized account.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] BlueIce987:
I manager to get device manager to make it qualcomm 9008 com3 thing , i just did not have qualcom drivers installed , but , how to get out of this edl state ....
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] user0u:
This is exactly what you need. This means the phone is in EDL mode and can be flashed using a Xiaomi authorized account.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] BlueIce987:
So , you know how to get my hands on a xiaomi account ? like any means to do it that is known ? because i think the mobile is not faulty , even the service center in my country , the guy told me that its not required to change the WHOLE board , but its a repair policy , so i have to figure a way to make the phone work , but as from a hardware prespective , its completley fine ....
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] user0u:
You only need to flash the ROM and your phone will be back to normal.

As I said there are a lot of people on this forum that have successfully had their phones EDL flashed by contacting people with Xiaomi authorized accounts. You can search the forum regarding this.

Just a disclaimer, this is not my endorsement of the people who have these authorized accounts because going by common sense strangers on the internet may sometimes be sketchy.

However a lot of people have had no problems so it is totally your call.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] BlueIce987:

hello,

moved from xiaomi.eu rom, to evolution x couple of days ago and everything was fine until suddenly appeared emergency call screen, after several screen turn on/off phone restarted, tried to boot to os, but restart again, and now it is stuck on bootloop. pfone enters twrp or fastboot, when i'm holding power up or down button, but after several second it enters twrp/fastboot menu it restarts again by itself. is there any way to try to fix this? thanks
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] PhoneRepairHUB:
Flash your original stock firmware using miflash also check if bootloader is unlock in fastboot
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] baronkaz:
how? i cannot enter fastboot. it restarts byitself after it enters fastboot. i acan not even completely turn it off
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] baronkaz:
so if i understood it correctly - i must remove back glass cover and shorten isp pinout to enter adl, right? and there is no other way to fix this without phone dismantling, right?

Literally same thing to me today. Also I have been using EvoX rom. Everything was working just find and out of nowhere my phone went into bootloop. It just keep restarting itself. I can open TWRP and after splash screen it restarts again, same for fastboot.

EDIT:

Seems power button to be the issue. I had to open the phone, disconnect the battery connector and reconnected it, the phone immediately started to power itself and still bootloop persist. Once I disconnect the power button flex cable, the phone booted in the system normally.

Then I slightly removed the power button out of the phone housing and saw there was some dirt around it, cleaned it and there the issue is gone.

well, this fix lasted just one day. power button started to become stuck again, so I'll suggest you to move on to double tap to lock/unlock gestures. It's difficult to me because of muscle memory and I use a lot press and hold power button to start flashlight.

Right now I am trying to find new button with low shipping cost. For my country all the articles I need, shipping cost is well over 50$ unfortunately.

[XPERIA X1 General] OhhFajitas:
Thought I'd share a story to anyone else in my situation or anyone thinking about picking up an Xperia.

I bought a X1i and I use AT&T here in the USA. Since they don't have cheaper plans when you are out of contract I thought I'd go ahead and get a subsidized phone (Iphone 3G) and then sell it to make back some money to discount the service.

Turns out if you get the Iphone plan whenever you check your voicemail or get a new message your phone is spammed SMS messages from AT&T. Also they block your account from using MMS even if you paid for the messaging packages.

I was able to call and get them to lift the block after an hour or so on the line and also had them disable the visual voicemail. Also AT&T has this system to track what type of phone you are using which you can check at wireless.att.com if you sign in. When I gave AT&T the IMEI of my new number they said it belonged to a Motorola V180 (some old color flip phone from 2005). Because of this the unlimited data for that phone is only $15 a month versus $30 for a PDA, yet there is no difference I still have the full 3G data connection.

Just thought I'd share my story in case anyone is in a similar situation as you might save $180 a year based on the cheaper data plan.

tl;dr version

AT&T's system thinks the Xperia X1 is an old P.O.S. phone which lets you get their cheaper unlimited data plan for P.O.S. phones but still works like the data plan for PDA phones.
[XPERIA X1 General] Aaron J:
I did the same, I went with the $35 everything unlimited data plan. My phone also showed up as the V180, however, you didnt have to get the iphone to get this to work, one of the free phones would of worked just fine. All you have to do once you swapped the SIM card is change the plan online and the changes are instant.

[Sony Xperia 1 III] bisento:
Hello,

I have a Sony Xperia 1 iii. I followed the instructions at https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/pdx215/install

I unlocked the bootloader, flashed dtbo.img and vendor_boot.img and got as far as the boot.img

"Now reboot into recovery to verify the installation" -> this is where it is stuck in the error message "your device is corrupt. It cant be trusted and will not boot" and shuts down after 5 seconds.

I tried the Xperia compagnion but this fails with "you bootloader is unlocked"

I can not relock the bootlader to fix this because it does not boot and does not show up with "fastboot devices" when connected with an USB cable

Flashtool (from 29. Dezember 2022, 93MB) seems not to work as well (won't open), same with Newflash (looks like more towards windows program? newflash.darwin does not start)

I am using a macbook pro M1 if this is relevant

The phone was vanilla straight from the package - no attached google profile or any data on it (Xperia compagnion asks if one has the google details saved)

Is there a chance to unbrick the Xperia? Any pointers or step-by-steps would be very much appriciated

Thanks for having some patience and greetings

The LinageOS instructions put mine in a power-off loop too. The fix was to use Sony Emma with the USB port forced to USB 2 (I forced it in the Windows VM). USB 3 takes longer to link up and the phone will always power off before Emma takes control. With USB 2, Emma should eventually gain control after a few tries.

Use the instructions in the old Unofficial Lineage thread on XDA.
