since i dont have or could use telegram at the moment i think that you meant this version:

[RECOVERY] [DISCONTINUED] [UNOFFICIAL] [13/14] OrangeFox Recovery Project

Discontinued, read first post ・ I'm not responsible for bricked devices, thermonuclear war or alarm app fails. ・ If it's your first time or you're unexperienced with flashing ROMs, please do some search before flashing! ・ YOU are choosing to...

xdaforums.com

It also says Version 12.1

If so...

I flashed it with fastboot using "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" and end up in a non-responsive recovery again.

i see a small discrepancy here... in that telegram post it saiy flash recovery recovery.img --slot=all

Did you install it that way or without those slot thing?

Nevermind:

"

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img --slot=all

fastboot: error: Could not check if partition recovery has slot all

"
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Himenaki:
You just need to flash it normally. And the unresponsive thing might be the big lag I also experience after flashing ro2w. Try pressing of the buttons in the recovery and wait for it to actually respond, it might take 10 seconds for every response.

And for the specific OrangeFox version I use, it's the 12.1, 2023-12-09 build
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Nachtwind_:
i havent made it to ro2rw yet... All I did was flashing recovery, factory resetting stuff as described above and rebooting to install gapps etc.. since that i have been stuck without working recovery ;)

played arround with the lag idea... but no response within display timeout

*edit* the only thing i notice that is different is, that with that unooficial version i can open the SD card in my file explorer while sitting in recovery.
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Himenaki:
Hmmm that's weird, try flashing the same version I have and see if it helps:

[Redmi Note 12 4G] Nachtwind_:
Ok... after doing this now for the 15th time i was greeted with the "mi" logo and got back in to recovery WITH touch functionality... And at this point i could both laugh and cry... while i can use recovery i tried to install gapps to be told: "no space left on the device" for each and every item.

I suppose i forgot to mount something...
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Himenaki:
Remember the flashing steps I told you before, you have to follow those. Since you're installing Gapps, follow the vanilla flashing steps. I'll send the Preflash and ro2w file here
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Himenaki:
Oh yeah I forgot to also tell you that when reflashing recovery, just download the zip version of the orangefox you're using then just flash it through recovery, instead of having to flash it through fastboot, this is just to avoid hassle.

For superiorOS the step of reflashing recovery can be ignored because superiorOS doesn't include any recovery that'll override your current one
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Nachtwind_:
Well.. well....

here we go again...

1) Wipe cache, dalvik-cache, data, metadata ...............OK

2) Format data ...............OK

3) flash Preflash ...............OK

4) Flash ROM ...............OK

5) Reflash custom recovery (sometimes can be ignore if using proper orangefox) ...............OK

6) Reboot recovery ...............Nope...

Recovery again without touch input after reboot...

What i see now is one pattern..

If i see at startup the MI logo i get touch input.. if not i dont... I wonder if that "Mi" logo is indicator for a certain restart mdoe (cold vs hot reboot?) Can i somehow force the "mi"-restart via db or fastboot?
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Himenaki:
Read my message above, I edited it
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Nachtwind_:
ok, thanks for the clarification... right now i am back at point 1 i guess trying to figure out how to enable touch again..

I wonder why i dont get the "Mi" logo now.... with that i have touch
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Himenaki:
Ok I have an idea, this is also the way I do it whenever install ofox.

Flash TWRP via fastboot, download from here:

#UnTested !!# TWRP | Unofficial | Redmi Note 12 4G ( tapas ) ( 23021raaeg )

This one too is UnTested More Like To See A Provider Supports this model So if u would to take the experience to tell us about it , would be so glad for this 💜 Here's the link 🖇️...

xdaforums.com

Next is to get the zip version of orangefox (the specific one I sent you, from GitHub) then move it to your SD card

From TWRP, flash the OrangeFox zip and see if that works out for you
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Nachtwind_:
Same situation... recovery flashed, recovery starts, no touch.

...and again... no MI logo...
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Himenaki:
Maybe the only solution is to keep reflashing ofox till you get it working, I've ran out of ideas
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Nachtwind_:
Done exactly that... 12 flashs later.. logo is back, touch works...

....and gone again

My "dayjob" is creating Software for industrial systems (Siemens, Beckhoff...) and although i can program whole plants i cant flash my phone.

I thinks its time for very eraly retirement.
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Nachtwind_:
I got ahead a _bit_

So... when i set active Recovery a i end up without a touch enabled recovery... if i set active recovery b it works but i cant flash ro2rw or gapps because they want to install into some product_b partition or so...

and while in b i cant reboot to system (boot loop at MI logo)
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Himenaki:
Interesting, never encountered nor seen this kind of issue before. Normally both slots a b on the phone should work fine, but not in your case, that's why I was confused on why that was happening to your case. The solution to fix that is probably flash stock firmware or rom
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Nachtwind_:
I guess it will be something along that line. Thats why i put up a thread just for that problem and its resolve as it has nothing to do with the original thread anymore..

My current gutfelling is that, somewhere, along the lines of flashing Recoveries and Roms i managed to somehow remove very important files from the system. Its peculiar that i dont see the MI logo and what strikes me as extremely odd is that i have a battery symbol showing up that has a question mark instead of a battery indicator..

Now i am trying to find any original stock firmware but all the gdrive links i find are down...
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Himenaki:
What variant do you have, Tapas (No NFC) or Topaz (NFC)?
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Nachtwind_:
Topaz
[Redmi Note 12 4G] linop:
Hey man, you need to reflash the stock mii rom again. In my first run I did something stupid (missed a step) and had a similar problem of unresponsive touch and fastboot screen empty. Using mii flash tool, reflashing the original rom did the trick. You'll then need to refalsh orange fox and make sure not miss a single step.
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Nachtwind_:
Or try to unbrick that phone and sell it.

Tbh... i really gave up on it. HyperOS is a joke and it really is too much effort to get it to work in the first place. Aftr a long history of Xiaomi phones this one is the first i really start hating.
[Redmi Note 12 4G] CGA1:
I can only agree. This will probably be my last Xiaomi after many years of being a satisfied customer. The lacking support from the "big ones" in ROM community only makes it worse. Next time I'll probably go for a refurbished Pixel, Graphene OS really is a work of art.
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Himenaki:
For me this is my first Xiaomi phone, and I have the Tapas variant, my experience with modding this phone was about as smooth as my past phones such as Samsung and Asus. Maybe I'm just lucky idk.

All I gotta say is that for me, this is one of the best purchases of my life, I purchased this phone with the maximum 8gb ram and 256gb internal for only around 115 USD. By default this phone is ****ty, but by using software enhancements it can be improved greatly.

Take for example the camera, it's honestly **** by default, but by using GCam and a config file made specifically for this phone, I can take flagship quality photos (Video Recording is unsalvageable tho).

Another one is the bad sound quality of the speaker, by flashing viper4android on either magisk or kernelsu, I can fine tune the sound to make it sound miles better.

The daily performance can be improved by flashing a clean, stable custom ROM, a custom Kernel, many boost and overclock modules on magisk or kernelsu.

It's one of the most fun experience I have ever had trying to improve a cheap ****ty phone into something really good
[Redmi Note 12 4G] DrDiamonds:
Hi, where would I find quantum kernel?
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Himenaki:
They post it on the telegram group RedmiNote12Indonesia_ch or RedmiNote12Tapas
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Nachtwind_:
This sums it up pretty good...

To me.. i have had the Note 4 since release and unfortunately killed it first week of this february. Never touched the original system and everything was great. I have a note 9 at work that works perfectly on stock. The camera is superior to whatever i have seen on any other phone so far. Back in the days i was using Redmi phones and other stuff - hell, i have a xiaomi TV and even the pump for my cars tires is from xiaomi... and that is why i am so extremely disappointed with the 12. it was a 200€ buy and not just inferior in both usability and camera to the note 9 but also the note 4... and that really sucks big time. And honestly... i am a programmer. Thats my dayjob. I write programs for heavy machinery and i am not shy from using these "skills" for other stuff as well.. but to pay for a phone thta i have to mod this far to make it usable is not what i think is in any way acceptable. I will give it another chance if unbricking works.. but i dont think its going to be my daily driver.. I'd rather look for a used Note 9 rather than this thing. I dont see how it could be salvagable only through software :/ But i hope to be surprised.
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Himenaki:
I'd say you might have a pretty good experience once you get past the recovery issue thing
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Rilot06:
Depends on the version he got. I have the 4gb ram version, that was the only one in stock, and even with custom roms, it can't hold 2 basic apps in the background for a minute or two, and lags a lot. Maybe custom firmware would help a bit, but definitely not much.
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Himenaki:
yeah not having a lot of ram is a pain, but given he bought his for 200 euros, im sure its at least the 6gb version, or maybe 8gb
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Rilot06:
Mine was more than 200 euros and it's the 4gb ;) Depends on the country
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Himenaki:
Damn Europe is really expensive huh, here in the Philippines I bought the 8gb version with 256gb internal for less than 6.4k php (equivalent to 115 USD or 107 Euros)
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Rilot06:
You can barely get any Redmi phones for that price in my country xd
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Nachtwind_:
it is
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Himenaki:
So yours was 4gb variant? That might explain why you had a bad experience with hyperos, because I generally see good opinions on hyperos on telegram groups
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Nachtwind_:
Interestering.. what i hate about it, is that even without swap (i suppose that is what the ram expension is supposed to be) i have, according to AIDA64 roughly 2GB free at all times... yet no multitasking. Thats why i suppose the OOM-Killer is somewhat idiotic in Hyperos
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Rilot06:
Yep, it was the same with miui too, nothing changed, 1-1.5gb ram free AT LEAST always and still can't open a second app without the first closing xd They both suck, but because of the 4gb ram, even custom roms won't improve much
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Nachtwind_:
So unbrick and selling it, it is.
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Rilot06:
Maybe you can find a good performance friendly custom rom, but I couldn't. Or maybe even the custom kernel helps, i didn't try that.
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Nachtwind_:
As i said.. i dont see how this would really help. In the end i will loose 50€ selling it or put in again a weekend to make it work. Then i would rather ditch it and bake a pizza for me and my wife instead of getting one delivered and end up with the same money i had before buying this piece of crap ;)
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Nachtwind_:
Thanks for all your help in this thread, especially you @Himenaki

At least you didnt stop helping even during this lost cause :)

But now the phone is on ebay.. where it belongs - as long as i have no idea how to put it in the 9th plane of hell that is...
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Himenaki:
Unfortunate that you had a bad experience, I hope you have a better luck and experience on your next phone if ever you buy one
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Nachtwind_:
Well... like i said earlier.. i have been using xiaomi products for ages now and never had anything to complain about.. and it speaks for itself that my Note 4 has been working for almost 8 years.. but right now i am using the note 9 with both my sim cards and i am in no hurry to get another phone.

I think that the main problem with my (!) Note12 is the small amount of ram in conjunction with that OOM-Killer.. It is, technically, not a bad phone. Its battery is great, the display is gorgeous and the overall thing is ok.. if it wasnt for the software. The question just is how much time i want to spend modifying ti to get it to a somewhat usable point... or if i just wait for another phone in future that is more "suiting" again. Xiaomi does good products but this is just not one of them i guess. Happened to many other brands like the S5 NEO i had for a week ;)

Like I said, thanks for your patience and your help. But now that the phone is stock again, completely wiped and ready to sell i will be banning it into a box and just wait for better technology to come.
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Himenaki:
Wait did you relock the bootloader? You might want to list it as "unlocked" before selling it, since unlocking bootloader voids warranty, and will mess with the device's play integrity certification, which means who ever is the next buyer might not be able to use banking apps without proper knowledge
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Nachtwind_:
It is marked as unlocked for the next buyer.

I may be a cynic... but i am not an asshole ;)
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Himenaki:
That's great, was worried for a sec there lol
[Redmi Note 12 4G] sibonelod:
Hello everyone... Hello I have the same problem but I was able to fix it.....

hyperos is buggy... You have to downgrade from hyper os to miUI14.

from the you can flash orangefox recovery and flash preflash and custom os.

In hyper os... There's no way to disable virtual ram even if , disabled it's default back to 2g. And apps run slower. Even if the phone sleep for a second and turn back on ... It refreshs slower. That's why it's difficult to multitask.

Install a custom kernel... for improved performance... like reduce CPU clock speed to save battery. And a lot more

View attachment 6068799

You mentioned installing a custom ROM after, which one are you planning to install?
[Samsung Galaxy A52 4G] gk98s:
Probably Unica. It has custom csc stuff so wouldn't that just bypass the csc from the russian rom? Also why does only russia have A14? Ive seen news about A14 getting released here a month or so ago
[Samsung Galaxy A52 4G] ethical_haquer:
Looking at the Unica A52 page, it points to this as an "Android 14 bootloader".

It looks like @RisenID is the maintainer, he should be able to help you as well.

I'm not sure why only Russia has it for now. 🤷‍♂️

Hi there, i bought an Realme GT5 Pro and it is a lovely phone. But it is a china only phone and i love in europe, so no problems regarding those things. But i want to root my phone with magisk and i need therefor my original rom so i can get the bootloader and stuff. But online all websites which talks about this phone are chinese and translate never works great and when i rind something it has other specs so i don't trust those to use to root my phone.

Does someone know if its possible and if so how to get my original rom from my phone? Is there any tool available to do this. The bootloader is unlockable just by a switch in the setttings so that is not the problem
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
Extract the original ROM ( i.e. clone the firmware ) at your own via ADB: requires phone is got rooted.

Windows Batch file example:

set "backupLocation = C:\NANDroid"
mkdir %backupLocation% >nul 2&1
adb devices
adb root
set "tmpFile=%TEMP%\dev-block.txt"
adb shell "su -c 'ls /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/*'" > "%tmpFile%"
adb shell stop
adb shell "start adbd"
for /F "tokens=* delims=" %%a in (%tmpFile%) do (
set "dev-block = %%a"
adb shell "su -c 'dd if=%dev-block% of=%backupLocation%\%dev-block%.img bs=4096'"
)
adb shell start
del /f /q "%tmpFile%"
[General Questions and Answers] sero_t:
Sorry do you mean it needs to be rooted first to do it? Because that is the whole point i want to root my phone, but don't know how without rom stuff

[Chromebooks] Freizh:
Hello!

I tried to fix a C433T Chromebook (SHYVANA) but I’m stuck…

The problem is, when I try to boot, I have “ChromeOS is missing or damaged” with a secure nvram (tpm) issue :

So I tried to reset the firmware using the Chromebook Recovery Utility extension, and even though I tried a lot of releases, it always failed (with 2 USB keys and one SD card). When I enter recovery mode, I plug my USB key and then, I have “An error has occurred.”

I also tried to enter dev mode with CTRL-D in recovery mode, but since I try to save this laptop, CTRL-D opens a new tab that ask if I want to turn off the OS verification. When I press "enter", the laptop reboots to the "ChromeOS is missing or damaged” screen and nothing happens.

But I don't know why, since I created this post, I can't use CTRL-D (the keyboard is not responding), so I use an external keyboard, and when I press enter to turn off the OS verification, the laptop bip two times and stay in this screen.

So after trying all I could read on the internet (30 reboots, reset, etc.), I saw the MrChomebox website with a tutorial to unbrick.

I bought a USB-C male breakout board and made a SuzyQcable following the instructions (here).

But when I try the “ls /dev/ttyUSB*” Linux command, I have nothing, just “access failed: No such file or directory.”

Of course, I tried to reverse the position and the two USB-C ports on this laptop.

I also tried with Debian on a Raspberry, Ubuntu 22 VM, and a live session USB Ubuntu 2304.

But it always failed. How can I restore the Chrome OS (if it's possible) or replace it with another OS?

Does anyone have an idea?

Thank you and have a good day!
