[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bin453:
After unlocking the bootloader, I erased the aboot boot recovery etc. files in the fastboot getvar section, then it froze and only works in hsusb mode, there are no operations such as fastboot adb.
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Renate:
Someday I'll figure out why people have this passion for erasing things.

Erasing things is destructive. It makes things kaput.

Do you know why you don't have fastboot?

Because you erased aboot, a/k/a abl, the Android boot loader which implements the fastboot protocol.
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bin453:
This is exactly the problem, I am looking for stock restore files so that I can return it to qualcomm edl mode.
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Renate:
There is no file that will do you any good until you get this in 9008 mode.

You can try an EDL cable. It may or may not work.

You can look for EDL test points, but this being a watch might be difficult to open or find anything on the teensy device.
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bin453:
The device is currently stuck in EDL mode, I can access the port with the qfil tool. But I don't have a qfil backup file, that's what I mean. thank you :)
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Renate:
No, it's not. You said that it's in 900e.

As I've said, that is not "Emergency Download" 9008 mode.
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] noelpb:
Hello everyone,

My name is Noel, I live in Belgium (Flanders) and I am new here.

I have recently decided to experiment with custom ROMs on my Nokia 8 (model TA-1012 with Android 9) and am very interested in installing PixelExperience-ROM (https://theupgradeguide.com/install-android-14-on-nokia-8-pixel-experience-rom-how-to-guide/) or LineageOS.

Since this would be my first time flashing a custom ROM, I would greatly appreciate any advice and guidance from the more experienced members here. I would love to get specific steps and recommendations for my device.

If anyone could point me to the right threads, downloads, or any important tips for my Nokia 8 (TA-1012), I would be very grateful. All help is welcome, and I look forward to learning more and being part of this great community.

Thank you in advance! In a next post I can tell what I did until now.

Best regards

[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] noelpb:
What I've done so far on my Windows 11 pc:

1. I followed the Hikari Calyx UU4 Method mentioned on https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Category:Bootloaders/Unlock_Bootloaders/HMD_Global. That means I followed the 4 steps of the Hikari Calyx UU4-method until I got 'Success'

2. I downloaded and installed the official Nokia 8 USB Drivers, ADB Driver and Fastboot Driver from https://androidadbdriver.com/nokia-8-usb-drivers/

3. Turn ON 'developers-mode' as well as 'USB error debugging' on my Nokia 8. I noticed that 'OEM unlock' within 'Developers options' is grayed out.

4. Connected phone and pc

5. Give command on pc: 'adb devices' and after deamon started successfully I got

'NB1GAS3781111952 device'

6. Apparently, issuing the command 'adb reboot bootloader' put the phone in download mode

7. Command 'fastboot oem unlock' gives message <waiting for device> infinitely…

So, I'm stuck … right at the beginning. Any help is greatly appreciated !

Kind regards

[General Questions and Answers] Victoryyy:
So basically the Xiaomi EU Rom requires an android 14 setup for it to supported. And I haven't gotten the hyperos update for my region for whatever reason. So I've got a A13 rn. How do I upgrade it to A14?

I've basically tried every single option there is regarding non-root options. And my bootlocker is not unlocked as I really don't know which MI flash is the official one. There's like 7 websites claiming they're the real deal. The en miui website just doesn't work and besides that it's the Xiaomi flash website which states it is not associated with Xiaomi at all.

It's all a mess guys please find me a way. Either for the hyperos update or the MI flash tool website. A YouTube tutorial would be fine too at this point.
[General Questions and Answers] NOSS8:
Before answering you what is the model?

23124RA7EO/23129RAA4G/23129RA5FL

And the full name of the rom on the phone?
[General Questions and Answers] Victoryyy:
It's the 23129RAA4G
[General Questions and Answers] NOSS8:
And the full name of the rom on the phone?
[General Questions and Answers] Victoryyy:
I'm currently on the MIUI 14.0.10.0 (TNGMIXM)
[General Questions and Answers] NOSS8:
You have a Global ROM and not an EU (EEA for Europe).

And it's the most recent in MIUI, so either wait for the update to HyperOS, or unlock the bootloader.

The first hyperOS update dates from 2024-03-21.
[General Questions and Answers] Victoryyy:
Nah nah I meant the EU custom Rom from the Xiaomi.eu website. It's available for my device as well as the NFC counterpart but the support is on A14 instead
[General Questions and Answers] NOSS8:
Ok, the Xiaomi Eu rom is available in A14, but what is the problem?
[General Questions and Answers] Victoryyy:
The problem is that my region hasn't gotten the A14 update yet. How can I possibly get A14 or hyperos is my question here. And also if you could please tell me what the actual website of the MI flash tool is. I've been driven insane from that. Is it the Xiaomiflash one? Or another? And I've explained a bunch of my problems up in question itself too. Thanks for the help man.
[General Questions and Answers] NOSS8:
I have already answered you for the update on the stock ROM, you have to wait but sometimes you will not get the update.

To use a Xiaomi EU rom you must unlock the bootloader.

Miflash can only be used with the unlocked bootloader.
[General Questions and Answers] Victoryyy:
But you have to literally use Miflash to unlock the bootloader right? Whatever it is I just need the website for it man. I'm stuck here help a brother out. Sorry for the constant headache.
[General Questions and Answers] NOSS8:
You are confusing Miunlock and Miflash, the latter can lock the bootloader but not unlock it.

Procedure for unlocking with MIUI.

Xiaomi Community

new.c.mi.com

Apply for unlocking Mi devices

en.miui.com
[General Questions and Answers] Victoryyy:
I tried en.miui but it says that the app itself is a very old version and smth in Chinese and when I try and update it the domain doesn't open what should I do? Btw thanks for clearing the confusion. Thank god I didn't try to do shi myself.
[General Questions and Answers] NOSS8:
"I tried en.miui but it says that the app itself is a very old version and smth in Chinese and when I try and update it the domain doesn't open what should I do?"

What app are you talking about?

Try to be more specific.;)
[General Questions and Answers] Victoryyy:
So I'll try and explain it the best I can. I have OEM on and my device has been connected to my Xiaomi account. I tried to install the tool from en.MIUI but when I opened it, the first thing it said in a message box was:

This version: 6.23.smth

New version: 8.4.smth

After that it gave me a single option in Chinese at the bottom and if I tried to click it it would bring me to an invalid domain/website. So I tried to go along anyway but all I could go until was the phone number section as the country code for the number just wouldn't change. After that I got stuck and gave up.
[General Questions and Answers] Victoryyy:
The zip I installed was from the official website. There were no interruptions during the process.
[General Questions and Answers] Victoryyy:
But the tool itself just didn't seem to work.
[General Questions and Answers] NOSS8:
I assume you are talking about MiUnlock, try an old version and don't update it, place the folder at the root of the disk.

USB debugging must be enabled.

Run it as administrator.
[General Questions and Answers] Victoryyy:
Yes MI unlock. But what I've seen in videos is that you gotta update it. It works fine in theirs. But when I try to click on the update button(written in Chinese as I said) it just brings me to a website that doesn't work.

I tried to go through without updating too. But it just doesn't work. It doesn't let me type the right number. Is there any way to fix this?
[General Questions and Answers] Victoryyy:
Ive tried all the three things you've suggested to do too. But the mi unlock itself just doesn't seem to work? Idk man I'm too dumb for this. You've been a great help though
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6] tsuick:
I am a hot fans of this app. I install from Fold 3 to Fold 5 and have bought a copy for each of my fold. I tried to install a new copy of Galaxy Max Hz on my Fold 6 and tried to test if it worked. Finally it is totally fine. Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 is much better then 8 Gen 2. I don't even need to enable PSM on my Z fold 6. However, Max hz lets me have an extra juice without scarifying the smoothness.

I hope the developer can keep developing this app.

[Samsung Galaxy A54 5G] creampi3:
So basically I have tried bringing my phone to the phone service but they said the only way was to factory reset it. But i dont want to lose my data so i searched up and researched how to do it. I found this yt video on how to do odin to flash your phone so it can get out of the bootloop. For the firmware I used frija to do it but everytime i try it in odin it keeps saying fail. Maybe its because of the firmware so I've tried looking for other firmwares for my phone but couldnt find any. I also tried another version of odin it says pass but it only took 3 seconds? Can anyone help? I've been trying for 2 days and im starting to give up.

Edit:

Also one time i tried it and like it kinda work i could see it in my phone the blue line but it was like not moving for so so long so i canceled it.
[Samsung Galaxy A54 5G] meric57:
Hello Creampi3, it starts in a loop be careful to put the version installed before problem Android 14 is flashed CSC home for no loss of data, do not install an earlier version it will fail you.

Try this recovery mode Power + volume + and do a wipe cache restart with system reboot and not reset factory.
[Samsung Galaxy A54 5G] creampi3:
Hi, i have already tried the home csc one but it still doesnt work and it is also version 14. For the recovery mode, i dont know why but it says error cache partition and stuff. Same as the system reboot.

Edit:

I dont know what happened, but just eaelier i tried turning on my phone again but it's not turning on. I'm charging it right now perharps it might turn on. It usually shows the charging icon though when its charging but it's not. Did i break my phone :(

I've been charging it for a while, still no signs. But i can feel my phone's heat.

Hello, in my opinion you are frying something, try to force the start, keep pressing power for a certain moment.

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] genesicgaogaiga:
There is no touch function at all.

I have also got this program but I also hate the lack of touch function.

For navigation, you can't switch between pics unless you choose the play slide show. Otherwise you have to touch your target pic, then retouch the 2nd icon ( 9 squares) from the left to home/
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Techvir:
@genesicgaogaiga ,

Thanks for the reply. :)

cancer Nokia does not have an android recovery menu so I can not hard reset it.

old phone with screen lock on, I need to hard reset it.

did a lot of googling and closest I got was put in fastboot mode via USB, drivers installed and all

using a software named "TFM Tool Pro", which I have not found a single version that the .exe would even launch, ( even tho I disabled anti-virus and ran exe as admin)

Is there any way to hard reset this piece of crap?

or does a version of TFM exist that will actually launch?

[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] S23Fan:
Hello,

I recently bought a used S23 Ultra from eBay. The phone was UNLOCKED and with 2 problems. One was cosmetic - the display has burn marks, the second was: can't update to android 14. Everything was fine until I updated it to 14 with Odin... and after less than 5 minutes enjoying One UI 6.1, it locked and a message appeared on the screen:

"This device has been remotely locked as the original purchaser failed to complete payment of their order. Original purchaser: Please contact help@tradeinresponse.co.uk for further assistance. If you did not purchase this device directly from Samsung: please contact the retailer"

I already contact few times "help@tradeinresponse.co.uk" and they refuse to assist.

This the response from them:

"As the device was not purchased directly from Samsung, we are unable to assist.

Apologies for the inconvenience caused."

Well YEAH, but after all they are the one who locked my the phone and now refuse to assist......I even ask them is there any tax to be paid or something. Answer was the same....As the device was not purchased directly from Samsung.... blah blah blah. WTF?

Please help how to deal with this problem.... Are there any online websites that offer an unlock password or any "how to" guidance. Now the phone is totally useless and cannot event try to install new ROM with Odin.

Did I just kill my phone completely or is there any hope to revive it?

Thank you in advance!

If you read careffuly, that's a carrier unlock, not locked device unlock.

It's a carrier unlock service. Your device doesn't suffer from a carrier lock, but a blocked device from Samsung. As I said, you can't do anything about it. Stop looking, there are no services that will do it for you.

Yeah, looks like the seller put that device in for trade-in. But didn't go through with the trade-in process and sold it on eBay. Report the user, contact eBay and Paypal to get a refund. The process is quite lengthy and you should be able to get your money back

I already tried to report it but no luck....eBay support is terrible, as aways! The answer from them was:
