I haven't able to figure it out even after extensive research using HEX Editor so the only solution until someone leaks the no auth firehose is to use authorised account. Let me know your findings.

Open the ELF in any hex editor and search for auth you will find it.
[Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G (peux)/POCO X4 Pro 5G (veux)] TanshiWT:
I did try opening it with different HEX Editors, all showing the same thing. The only occurrences of "auth" are only in the error messages defined at the start of the program. As seen below.

This is a tedious task to do and it may not even succeed.

Compare a patched firehose and normal firehose for a different Xiaomi phone.

Like Redmi 8A which has patched firehose.
[Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G (peux)/POCO X4 Pro 5G (veux)] TanshiWT:
Won't the patched file be entirely different than the one I'm working on? Or are they all similar in most of their content? If they're different, could you tell me the phone model that's the most similar to my veux device which has an already patched firehose file so I could have an easier time comparing?
[Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G (peux)/POCO X4 Pro 5G (veux)] TanshiWT:
I tried disassembling multiple firehose files of different Xiaomi phones but they'd only decompile as binary and therefore be unreadable.

I managed to find the auth check function in my phone's firehose file and managed to hex edit it in multiple different ways using multiple different approaches. Unfortunately, none of them worked and they'd all end up disconnecting my phone from my PC during the flashing process (I'm assuming the code somehow crashed during the process) and output "Can not read from port COMx".

What's weird about this is the fact that the code itself shouldn't error out as its syntax and logic is correct and therefore should bypass the auth check or fool it into thinking I have auth. Perhaps the error lies elsewhere.

The only progress I've made so far is be able to read the code of the firehose file more efficiently and accurately, but then again without a proper way of debugging it, I don't think it's of much use.

Could you maybe assist me with one of your tools? I'd really love to save this phone.

[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] dskw:
EDIT: I think I have found all the necessary information on my own by now. The thread can be considered solved.

Hello everyone!

I recently bought a refurbished pad 5 6GB/128GB from a reseller that should arrive shortly. Supposedly an EU version.

According to the shop it is running Android 11, so I assume it was probably never updated since original unpacking.

My plan is get a recent android version on it and split the memory to 64GB/64GB for a dual boot windows 11 install.

I've read that latest ArrowOS seems to be good, or are there better CFW for the device?

Now, it has been a while since I unlocked and rooted an Android device, and the whole topic of using an online account with Xiaomi and waiting 7 to 15 days for approval is new to me.

Is this a one-time thing, or would I have to unlock the bootloader via account every time I want to flash something new to the device?

I did find this tutorial from xdaroms on how to unlock the bootloader. Are there any downsides or risks involved when trying to bypass the account usage/official unlock tool?

What would be the recommended steps to achieve my desired setup?

So far I understand it like this:

unlock bootloader

root device (separate step, or part of the bootloader unlock?)

install new android version

then follow this guide for the windows installation

Any suggestions if I should go at this in a different way?

Thanks in advance!

[Nothing Phone 2] der_Kief:
Hi,

after a longer period of screen off the fingerprint icon/circle doesn't show up anymore.

If there is just a few minutes of screen off then it works as it should.

I have activated the corresponding setting (see screenshot below) but that doesnt help at all.

After I updated to the latest version (A14/2.5.1A) I'm not sure if that's the reason.

I've only had the device for a few days and I only noticed this now.
[Nothing Phone 2] pawelmiernik:
What are you shortening with "resp."? There is a setting called sleep standby optimization under battery that will kick in after some time of inactivity, try turning that off. As far as the finger print icon on screen off, it's only there for a short period then disappears on my phone and I have tap to wake turned on so that I can tap the screen to wake the phone to unlock it and that is always working well for me. So unless your phone becomes unresponsive I think the fod icon disappearing act is intentional as it might permanently burn a circle into your screen if it's there all the time when the screen is off, remember the whole screen is off and that circle is the only thing lit up, that ring of oleds will become dimmer over time if left always on.

Edit: just wanna add that while you have ambient screen on the clock and widgets can shift slightly and remain on the screen without burn in being a thing, but the ring around the finger print sensor is a ring that can't be shifted because it's there to indicate the finger print sensor position and that's fixed permanently in one spot on the screen so it needs to be turned off to prevent burn in.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misterleo77:
I don't know if I'm doing the right thing by writing a new thread, I apologize but I'm new here.

Anyway, I have a OnePlus 10T and I had it rooted. Using it I realized that it is not for me and I would like to remove it.

I removed the root from magisk and checked with root checker and it said everything about the root was removed. At this point I waited for the official update of oxygen OS 14.0 and Android 14, version CPH2415_14.0.0202(EX01).

From what I understand, I now have a way to block the bootloader without creating problems since the flashed version is original.

What should I do now?

Is the process the same for every other Oneplus? because I had already found a guide but it was for the 5T and I don't know if it can still work.

Thanks in advance

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMystic:
Before you try to relock bootloader, make sure EVERYTHING is returned to stock. Removing Root alone isn't sufficient. Clean install Oxygen OS and ensure that the ROM, Recovery and everything else is stock. If you lock the bootloader without being 100% sure, you may end up with a permanently bricked phone.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misterleo77:
thanks, in fact I understood this, which is precisely why I installed the system update, because from what I understand, it should rearrange everything from stock. If that's not all, what else do I need to see?

my question is just what else do I need to reset as stock other than removing root and installing the updated OS?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMystic:
Have you done a CLEAN install of Oxygen OS? You'll have to wipe your system, data and internal storage partitions (from recovery) before installing the ROM. Now boot the device. When booting for the first time, Oxygen OS will (should) automatically replace the custom recovery with stock recovery. Double check this part before relocking bootloader.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misterleo77:
No, I just updated without restoring anything and followed what it tells me in the settings when it says there is a new update.

So you're saying that I can do a factory data reset from recovery and install the rom from recovery?

Is the rom you are talking about the oxygen updater one?

Do you have a guide I can follow?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMystic:
1. Download the full ROM (Oxygen OS latest build for your device from official website) on your PC (you can copy it to your USB if required). You'll need the full ROM (about 4 or 5 GB in size), not just the update package. Backup all your files from your phone to PC.

2. Boot to recovery (I'm assuming you still have a custom recovery like TWRP).

3. Wipe the 3 partitions I mentioned above: System, Data and Internal Storage.

4. Flash the ROM (either from a USB stick or using ADB).

5. Boot to System. Oxygen OS will usually replace the custom recovery with Stock Recovery. 1st boot will take some time, so be patient.

6. Do the basic setup, but skip the Google sign in part. Make sure your device boots properly.

7. Reboot to recovery. You should see Oxygen OS recovery.

8. At this point, you're on your own and everything you do is at your own risk. You can reboot to Fastboot and pass the necessary commands to relock the bootloader. Relocking bootloader is big risk if you aren't completely sure of everything.

[Realme 6 Questions & Answers] AT9M:
Can you clarify some stuff? Did you had you device rooted or you had custom recovery? I got that kind of problem once but not with that many issues. It was that i installed custom recovery incorrectly and it booted into custom recovery pretty normally for once. After that i booted into system and used phone normally without any issues. I thought I installed custom recovery correctly but it seems that something was wrong. I never tried to reboot device for several months. And it was working fine. Once i drained battery fully because i was not at home.when i went back and plugged phone, i charged it to around 20 percent and it was charging fine. It didn't had any issues you said but after i tried to boot a phone it didn't work. It got bootlooped for some reason. And that was because I installed custom recovery in a wrong way. Basically that's called soft brick. You can fix it easly and if you need help tell me. If you had installed custom recovery before that can be the issue. You can fix it in 2 ways. Either way you will lose your data.You can flash recovery.img again from computer and it might fix or it might not work idk. Sometimes it worked for me sometimes not. Or you can flash a full firmware again with flash tool for realme devices with mediatek processors. It will most likely fix the bootloop. You just need to find a extracted ofp file for your realme 6. But you should choose it depended on your model Because there are different models of realme 6.If you need help tell me and i will explain everything you need to do for it.
