Hi,
I am a new android developer.
I need to unlock HTC G2 magic so that I can flash, upgrade/downgrade android OS. Also I want to install modified version of android OS.
Not to mention that this is for developement purpose and although the dev phone is available, it's not available in my region. I need to unlock a retail version (HTC G2 with 288MB RAM) to make it work just like a dev phone.
Please tell me how can I do that.
Thanks in advance.
Welcome to forums

From Motorola Europe's facebook page: Posted on the 29th
Hi there, we received this updated statement: the team is continuing to work through plans on an unlockable version for Europe and hoping to have details in the next week or so on when that might actually come to market. That's all we have for the moment but looks like details may be forthcoming. Thanks.
Can You please provide direct to link to that post.
Thank You.

Hi all,
I was wondering if there is official ubuntu touch support forum where we can get info about progress of software or where we can write our findings about system and so on. ??? At this point we don't have any real info about updates and what to expect... ???
Thanx in advance
Best regards
Miki
Same concern here
There's no real official forum. Many developers hang out on askubuntu.com.
Development information can furthermore be found on the ubuntu-phone mailing list, which you can subscribe to here: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone
The landing team posts daily changelogs there.

Given the pain of trying to make this phone somewhat functional and something that resembles the level of customisation that I am used to I am thinking I might attempt to root my device. I am pretty sure by doing so I can get Android Auto working, utilise a better launcher along with change my default sms / dialler and then hopefully also shut down a lot of the other limiting Oppo Security functions.
I am just wondering whether anybody has installed a custom recovery and rooted their Find N yet?
The only functionality I am worried about breaking would be my mobile payments / banking apps, but I am 99% sure there are ways to avoid this..
Any help / advice is greatly appreciated!
Interested to see how you get on with this
The main issue I see is that Google Pay would likely stop working on a rooted device; and whilst I can deal with Android Auto not working (though a deal breaker for some), and I'm pretty happy with the default launcher and default dialer/sms apps, etc.; not having Google Pay working would be a deal breaker for me.
Before doing the root, we need to have the boot.img file so it can be patched. The issue I encounter is that I didn't find it anywhere. Has anyone managed to find the official Find N firmware yet?
Ok and its an old version but i Saw those links onnanother websites (kiné ofnarabic one) but cant found anymore
I tried with the Oplus Upgrade Tool but i cant find downgrade option or link
That's a shame. Not sure how to get an invite...
I purchased an invitation code and got access to the site, however the file is actually for an OPPO A93, haha. Hopefully they respond to my post with an accurate link

Thanks konkoro! I actually managed to get a copy of this last night. Also, was it you who just responded via email to my request to ask for it to be uploaded? If so I really appreciate your efforts in organising that..
I have managed to extract the boot.img from this firmware (along with a previous version), although I am still trying to confirm that they are actually for the Find N (peum00). Details within the firmware suggest that it might not be (although I realistically do not know what I am looking at / for..) Also, my phone doesn't recognise this firmware when I attempt to locally upload it for a software update, but I understand that could be because I could be already on a later release of it. However, both of the firmware files names don't appear to match in any way (or even seem similar) to what the device says it has installed
Are you able to confirm with certainty that this is in fact firmware for the Oppo Find N - peum00?
Thanks again!

No, I found it by chance and just informed.
I'm not sure whether it's a real.

Yeah I can see that.. My confusion is due to a couple of things, but as I was discussing with you the other day - I just want to be 100% certain
Realistically the dates of the firmware look right (mentioned within the name), the firmware also references the Qualcomm SM8350 processor which is reassuring. However it does also mention Samsung a lot.. (Quite possibly referring to other hardware within the phone though). Also as mentioned above, my phone doesn't recognise it, but that is probably due to other reasons.
Realistically until someone figures out how to unlock the bootloader the firmware isn't much use yet anyway.. However once this can be done, it will be critical that it is the correct firmware so the right boot.img can be patched / flashed to prevent bricking the device.
Yes it’s 100% for PEUM00.
Regard SM8350.. are you trying with firehose..? Oppo has used sign firehose so you can’t use with other model firehose and it’s also have to be same hash.

Awesome
Yeah I have looked, but I cannot find a signed SM8350 / PEUM00 / Oppo firehose file anywhere. I think this is where the root process is likely to stall for a while (if not forever )

This may be a stupid question, but did you enable "OEM unlock" on the "Developer options" ?

Unfortunately there's a bit more to it than that. That setting is pretty much irrelevant these days, as Oppo / Qualcomm have disabled the ability to be able to unlock the bootloader in the traditional fashion.
Here is a great article on the situation we are faced with: https://lineageos.org/engineering/Qualcomm-Firmware/

Damn, I read the article and in fact, it is almost impossible to unlock the bootloader.
But I was reading the step-by-step "How to Install Magisk on your Android Phone" document (maybe a "little" outdated) on https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-install-magisk/ and that left me thinking: what if we decompress the OFP firmware file, patch the boot.img file using Masgisk app, create again the OFP firmware and flash it again the OFP using the Realme Flash Tool?
Do you think this is doable?
I was able to decompress the OFP file and patch the boot.img file, but I didn't search how to compress again the files into OFP format.
Hello, I have a question...
I have a Vivo smartphone.
I have been hacked and had spyware on my smartphone even after I did factory reset.
I realized I have to flash the stock rom again.
Problem:
1. I have come across many websites claiming to provide official stock ROM...
Download Vivo Stock ROM for all models - hardreset33
You can download any Vivo smartphone flash file here. Download Android mobile latest and original stock ROM or Firmware version.
www.hardreset33.com
Vivo all models Stock Rom Firmware Download – FLASH FILE TOOL

flashfiletool.com
In fact these websites look scammy....
Where can one ACTUALLY find the official stock ROM files?
2. How can one find the files on this website XDA because this is my first time using the website?
3. how can we confirm files found on XDA have not been tampered with?
Thank you in advance for posting your replies...
Hm it has been very easy to register to this website XDA and post a question... Really pleasant experience. Usually forums are so annoying with millions of rules on how to ask a question, what to ask, in which subsection bla bla bla... Confirming the account etc etc....
I am really pleasantly surpsied.
I look forward to receiving some constructive replies because I am indeed quite frustrated having spent 4 hours googling "vivo official stock rom" and having actually found absolutely nothing reassuring.
I have basic knowledge in python, mysql and php so for me as an amateur programmer, it sounds crazy to just go and download an OS from a random website and install it on your smartphone.
I don't understand the implications very well but that seems rather wild to me...
It's like downloading your microsoft windows iso image from whatever website you found somewhere?! :S
