Guys please help me here I have been reading many posts I'm bit confuse a lot thing going here .
I'm receiving new amazfit watch from China i guess it will come with latest chinese firmware
#So if the watch comes with latest Chinese firmware with LOCKED BOOTLOADER can I still convert to English or no solution here
#How can you check if the BOOTLOADER is locked or not
I don't care as long I can update to English ROM with all features and OTA enabled.
Thanks guys I'm just looking for help:good:
I think you can translate the watch to english even if the bootloader is unlocked, but I'm not sure. Search the forums a little and you'll find the answer.
You can see if the bootloader is locked by looking up the software version. If it's 1.2.13 (Chinese) or 1.3.2b (English) or newer, it's locked. If its older, than the bootloader is unlocked and you can install PACEfied.
If the bootloader is locked, maybe there is a hope for it to be unlocked as Neuer_user and others are working on unlocking it.
EDIT: I see you got your answer about translating the watch in another thread. Please don't post the same question to multiple threads. I know you are probably impatient to get your answer, but one question in the right thread is enough to get the answer.

Hi there,
I'm rather new (so sorry if these are dumb questions) to all this flashing / rooting / de branding and had a few questions about it..
Well i bought the x10 on mobile network 3 (three uk) and tbh they are ****. First phone i had i debranded using the SEUS copy file method over, but since then i have had them replace the phone. i tried the same method but as SE have updated SEUS i can't get it to work... :|
So looking around i started reading up on rooting.
Firstly if i follow this guide forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=711907 will that debrand the phone to the generic firmware?
If that is the case will i then be able to get future updates through SEUS or not?
If i rooted the phone, would there be anyway to go back to the so called unrooted version?
And lastly, what are the other pro's and con's of rooting?
Thanks, and sorry if these are silly questions!

Hi.
They aren't silly if you don't know the answer, but considering a search of the forum and browse of the guide (which you could have posted this question on) would have given you the answers it's an annoying post.
Read the rules and browse THIS section.
i had been researching the topic for 2 days before i posted here, i understand the majority of it just not the questions posted above.
i followed the link you posted but it did not answer my main question
will that debrand the phone to the generic firmware?
If that is the case will i then be able to get future updates through SEUS or not?

After searching google with can I run seus after rooting, I found this thread - [Q] Questions about rooting my X10i
Total time, 30 seconds.
thankyou
sorry, just seen so many posts about it didn't know what to properly search for
pardon my ignorance
No worries, but it is frustrating to see new threads asking questions that have been answered a million times already. In future just post on an existing thread instead of starting new ones.
To answer one of your other questions - What is rooting and why should I do it?
yes i can understand that entirely being a member of other forums myself.
In future Existing Posts it is!
Thanks for that link as well, definatly explains things in more detail!

Hello,
I need certain help. I've looked everywhere in order to find those custom ROMs for my tablet 'GoClever Tab R75', but to no avail.
I've found a thread on these forums somewhere, but the guy who replied on the already asked question was Polish and I didn't understand a single thing he wrote. Translation awful, as usual.
He did, however, provide 2 links for some "Softwares" and "Kernels", none of which I understood. I don't know what these Kernels are, provided I'm totally new to this whole rooting thing, nor do I know which "Software" to choose from all of those further links following that very link the Polish guy posted.
I just want to know if there are ANY custom roms for my tablet, because I just won't apply those Softwares or Kernels this guy posted knowing nothing about them and what they are supposed to do. Not that I'm saying that this Polish guy is unscrupulous or anything similar, I'm just saying that I don't understand any of those 'intermixed numbers and letters' in the descriptions of those links he provided.
Thanks in advance.

Can you not google translate on the page that the link takes you to??
Hello, thanks for the quick response.
Sure I can translate, but as I've told you, I'm new to all this rooting stuff and I just don't know what those kernels are of which software to choose.
I could just use someone's help, someone's who's experienced with these things to tell me whether there is a custom ROM for my tablet or not, that's all.
Can you briefly tell me what those kernels are, I'm just curious.
I'll find a way to install it but I just need to know how to find it. (the ROMs)
Anyone?
Hi! First of all... Sorry for bad English! I am German and was smoking to much in school.
I hope you understand what I mean in this post. So lets begin...
I don`t want to call anything bad here on this forum, or criticize anyone of you. I am very grateful for the many work and time that most of you spend for all of this. But I am a newbie and must write something, that myself and many other newbies are thinking, but not writing, about many threads. As an example,
the Thread "{Android 7 - EMUI 5.0} VNS-L31/L21/L11/L23 C432B329 {FULL/LEAK} [28-11-16]", linked here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/hua...t/android-7-emui-5-0-vns-l31-l21-l23-t3513816
I read about this Android 7 firmware and was very interested to flash it. But as a newbie, I wanted to collect as much information as possible about this firmware (general Informations, How to flash, Problems, what to do if it fails, ...). Because I think that this forum is the best at web, I searched for these informations here and began to read everything I could find about it. But on most threads, like my example thread, I have a problem, because I did not understand, if its up to date or not. And if the problems, other users write about are still there, or if they were fixed allready. There are to many posts, where users write about different problems. So it often makes me confused, because I am not sure if answers are for problem user1 posted or for problem that was posted by another user. If its quoted, ok. But its still very difficult to understand what is up-to-date and if problem would be fixed now or not. Sometimes I read all of these posts and at the end I understand nothing anymore, because everyone is writing about different problems. So it feels like chaos for me. Then it happened that sometimes users say that there are no problems anymore, and at next page someone writes that there is still problem. Some users post links to websites, threads or files and next user posts links to websites and files too. And then I am thinking about, if they are writing about same problem, if I need all of these stuff or not, what I must flash first, if problems exist if I flash linked file from user1 or if it might be fixed at linked file from user2, .... Then I asked myself which one of this is the newest and up-to-date and if this was the one I get shown at started post on first page (I mean If it was updated by thread starter or if someone posted a newer version at example page 23 of all replies)? How I know if these informations on page 1 are still up to date? At moment I did not understand if there are still problems, or not. And which of these files to flash, to fix problems. After many days I was reading now, I am still not sure if I could flash this firmware on my Huawei P9 Lite (VNS-L31 C432 B161) without getting problems, I read about. As an example, problems like these:
-Is camera working
-keyboard working
-display showing all ok
-mobile data working
-and others
And I don`t know if I must download and flash the files, posted on first page, to become most newest / most stable version, or if I might must read all pages of this thread, to find something posted, thats newer than information on first page? All together... my final question is: Are these informations and files that were posted on first page, all I need and up-to-date for flashing this firmware?
My greatest wish would be a general thread, where I could find all informations and files categorized in different threads, so that newbies like me could understand it better. As example, the thread "Huawei P9 Lite Firmware Compilations by ErvinSoliven", that were opened today by ErvinSoliven and linked here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/hua...huawei-p9-lite-firmware-compilations-t3517124
I opened it and it shows me all the information (hope soon actually ) I was looking for, without reading all of the replys on many pages. This I think is a very good example thread on how to categorize different themes. And I think it would reduce questions, that were allready asked by other users for 5 or 6 times before. So If someone were willing to invest so much time for things like that, I would be very happy and grateful. Who wants to be that hero?
But at first, it would be the most important thing for me, if someone could post an up-to-date information thread about
flashing Android 7 on P9 Lite (VNS-L31 C432), inclusive
-links to needed files (Recoverys, Images, Fixes for camera..., and how to do it)
-informations what is fixed or still not working
-what to do if I get problems during it
It would really really help me, because reading so much posts, in a language that I did not understand very good, is very hard for me and makes me not sure, if I am doing all of this right or if I might did understand something wrong or choose wrong file, ...
I hope you all understand these things, I want to tell you, in this post here. If not, sorry again for this bad English! I tried my best.
At the end of this post, I want to say something again...
"Thanks" to all the people that have so much patience, spending many time and many work, for this great forum and teaching newbies like me! You are the best! Many thanks!!!

i see a lot of tutorials on how to unlock the bootloader for the h831 while searching. has anyone tried these?
i'm curious because i'm getting the g5 tonight. and i might want to root it in the future.
There is no bootloader unlock for the h831 and there isn't one in developement either. If you really searched on the forums, you would have realised this yourself.

actually, there is one:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/how-to/guide-adb-root-rw-dm-verity-off-sprint-t3523499
some have reported it to work. thanks though. and i didn't say i searched the forums, now did i.
Firstly, what you found isn't a bootloader unlock nor a "normal" root method (with supersu and all the bells and whistles). That is actually an userdebug kernel and an adb root is pretty limited for non-devellopers and you shouldn't use it ubless you know what you are doing. So I actually didn't lied to you as there really is no bootloader unlock available for the h831 nor one in devellopement.
Secondly, when you post a question in ANY forum, everyone expect you should AT LEAST make a quick search in the forum iteself or google it. Why ? Because if everybody ask questions without checking if they have been answered, the community is stuck at posting the same answer again and again, wasting everyone's time and ressources. Why somebody should take his own damn time to answer a question if the other person isn't even ready to make a quick 1 minutes search ?

seems like you're angry...how about you just get the hell out of my thread eh?
i asked a question in the QUESTIONS forum! it doesn't matter if it was asked before. if you don't like to answer with kindness, then don't answer at all.
thanks for the info though.
I recently received my unlock token and like some knucklehead downloaded and flashed my holi version with the Dre8 img and now I have a brick could some one that has the holi version please run this command in their adb if their bootloader is unlocked and post it please I'm begging you
adb pull /sdcard/*.img/vendor/firmware/
I have zero idea what you have written like what holi version and what not but this should solve your problem
flash this - https://firmwarefile.com/oneplus-nord-2-5g
Also do not flash other nord 2 firmware preloaders from that website as that would result in a hard brick and you would be forced to go to the svc if you want to revive your phone ( for now ) .
Also what is an unlock token for nord 2 ? i think you might be in the wrong forum because there exists no such thing as token for nord 2, feel free to correct me if i am wrong.
Hello @Tower_972,
just a friendly reminder, please don't cross-post same question in multiple threads.
