I didn't get it... You can unlock via USB or you still need an ATF box? Is it possible to make it work without a box, say using libusb or NSS other way to talk to the phone?

This moment to unlock must have service box,
Cyclone and BEST unlock via cable usb.
ATF unlock via TP, and must open phone.
Great
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
Pointless to pay £15 you can get the best dongle for about £25.
http://www.aliexpress.com/store/product/Infinity-Best-Dongle-BB5-Best-dongle/1005210_1443859235.html
Most it is worth is about £5 and that is only if the person doing it knows exactly what they are doing and can do what you want without that hassle where you have to phone Microsoft.
So try use Infinity with it. Good luck

Hello, I have problems with a u20i x10 mini pro.
I tried resetting with pccompanion, as well as flashing stock firmware (no error in flashtool log), but phone enters a sort of bootloop, without even arriving to SE logo. Only, display gets light, but nothing is displayed. Phone sometimes vibrates, when power button is pressed. No led light seen.

It's not hardbricked, in a hardbrick you don't get any responses from the phone. I think maybe your flex is broken, that's the ribbon cable that connects the screen to the rest of the phone. Other than that, i wouldn't know why it's not working properly.

Thanks mate, then I'm opening it tomorrow (I just don't have any tools with me right now).
Just another couple of questions before opening:
1) I would have expected the phone to turn on and without the display (and hence, be available via usb), instead of continuosly rebooting. Am I wrong?
2) does the ribbon cable brake, or sometimes just detach from the board?
thanks again (for the info as well as for the prompt answer)

Well... as for nr.1, you do get a response from your phone in S1Tool, so that is ok, and if it was booted you would have to turn on usb-connection from the status-bar in order for it to connect as mass storage The screen not working prevents you from doing that. On the other hand, the drivers for the screen and the digitizer may give a fatal sort of error because they can't connect, resulting in the kernel stopping the boot. Both are sort of guesses on my part but may explain your problem.
As for nr. 2, It usually breaks It's the most common hardware failure on the U20.

I see... and, please correct me if I am wrong, a broken flex cable could explain the led off while charging and while flashing, right? but, isn't also the "back" key connected through the flex, in the end? just for my information, I don't mean to test your knowledge
another couple of questions:
3) do I need to disassmble both the lower (the one of the battery) and the upper (the "display" one ) parts, to check the flex, or can I just concentrate on the upper one?
4) I suppose there is no way to repair the flex, if is is broken....
thanks for the valuable information!

Yes, it would mean the led wouldn't get any power, but the flex is a parallel cable, with lots of wires connecting various parts, they may not all be broken, so you might still be able to use the keys, or with some people, half the screen sometimes.
As for the disassembly, there are tutorials and videos you can follow, just search them on google. And a new flex-cable is quite inexpensive, a few quid should buy you one.

I'm considering buying a new one... but, before, another couple of questions
is the flex glued onto the metal plate? Do I have to destroy the old one? (and that would explain why all the video guides end without "disassembling" the flex do I need any special tool to attach the new one (assuming that I am really going to do the job )?

Alright, I made it
I received the new ribbon and put it in operation
Actually, I need a couple of further suggestions:
1) how do I fix the ribbon in the right position? Do I need to glue it? When I open the keyboard, I have the feeling that it always "crashes" against the ribbon...
2) How do I solve the sim-lock?

I don't know if you need to glue it, maybe you could even use some tape to stick it, roughly in the same place where the old one was attached, if that was attached at all.
Secondly: What about the sim-lock? Do you mean it's locked to one particular provider, without accepting other sim-cards? Or do you mean the code you have to fill in before the phone is booted up?

Right... that is a sim-lock... either use a sim-card from the provider the phone is locked to, or ask that provider for an emma/imei code in order to unlock it. This is usually free after the initial contract period. The only other way is to use a paid service to unlock it.

Verdammt, ok... Point is, I got the phone in a "flohmarkt", so I have really no idea of the provider.
Cheeky question: are the ones you mentioned the only possible solutions, or is it possible that there is some "grey zone" way to do the job, described around the internet, which I shall look for by myself?

It can be done over the internet, but everyone who offers that service will demand money for it. The only really free way ( and the safest way if you want to unlock the bootloader and play with custom kernels and roms ) is the code from the provider. There isn't some sort of logo or sticker inside that will identify the provider? Come to think of it, there should be a model-sticker inside with an SI number on it in the format of: 1238-2562 (that's my number, SE original Customised UK black ) One of those two numbers is usually a provider-code you can look up on the internet. I wish you good luck
(And flohmarkt is german for flee-market (usually american english), or car-bootsale (more commonly used in the UK)

I have no idea if that is legal, but since the Austrian government isn't reprimanding them I guess they are within the legal limits of doing so. The 'normal' thing to do though, is to do it for free after the initial contract period is over, since the phone is paid off by then, and there's really no need to keep it tied to your own network.
I can somewhat understand the difference between the receipt and non-receipt prices, they don't want to make it worth while for stolen phones to be used any longer. (Not that i'm saying your phone is stolen, but they can't know without the receipt).
I suggested doing it through them because it is usually free, but since you'll have to pay for it, You could try something like Omnius. They are a paid service, but they should be cheaper than the provider in this case.

Not to the phone-makers, a nice present to themselves, making money of a phone that's already paid for, and the only thing they have to do in return is e-mail a code they've got stored in a database.
They are hoping you'll go for a new phone (and contract) which would make a nice present for them AND a phone-maker It's win-win for them, apart from the fact that you're now pissed off and will never go for them as a provider in your life

very bad news from my small mobile phone
I had always had the feeling that I assemblied quite fast and not really well, so I decided to open it again and fix the ribbon with some glue... long story short, it does not work at all! No reaction at power on button, no reaction on linux (lsusb used to show a device, when the ribbon was broken), no reaction from s1tool... I fear I really broke something, this time... do you still have some suggestion for this case of "no response at all"? I actually don't think I ruined the ribbon with the glue (which was my first guess), but I don't know what to consider now...
Hi,
I just purchased a Kenxinda Three Proofings W9 (also known, in Malaysia I think, as the Kenxinda Flattop W9).
It is a 6" ruggedised smartphone that cost approx $350 Australian Dollars, (or a bit over $300USD.)
The phone seems excellent, except that it contains some malware from the factory.
Lookout finds:
HTMLViewer - App Dropper.Android.shedun-main.ad
Kaspersky finds:
not-a-virus:HEUR:AdWare.AndroidOS.Xynyin.I - SystemFQAD kenxinda.apk
Malwarebytes finds:
Android/Trojan.Sivu.c - /system/priv-app/HTMLViewer/HTMLViewer.apk
The shop I purchased it from are happy to refund me, which I will do if I cannot get a resolution.
Kenxinda don't seem to want to help me.
I have tried various apps to try and root the phone, (using a dummy google account on a freshly reset phone, so as not to risk my personal data) such as Kingroot, Kingoroot, One Click Root 2 and Towelroot.
I know nothing else about android rooting/hacking, but I do know the basics of linux.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how I might be able to fix this, (with minimal risk of bricking the phone) or should I just send the phone back for a refund?
Thanks
EDIT: Never mind, I sent the phone back for a refund today.
I have bought W9 two days ago, checked with Kaspersky and found nothing suspicious.
I have no /system/priv-app/HTMLViewer/HTMLViewer.apk and /system/priv-app/HTMLViewer
But I bought on AliExpress, and maybe you should better to change smartphone.
BTW I have no idea how to root it too. But I used to do it to get line call record, but W9 can do it with no root, I'm happy now! )))

KingRoot is generally the best for this type of phone. It is best to use the PC version available at XDA here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/one-click-root-tool-android-2-x-5-0-t3107461, and at the web home site: https://kingroot.net/
You can remove KR after rooting and install SU if you wish (I do this).
Generally I root to remove the bloatware, trial apps and non root system apps. I then add in my paid apps for the system, such as the JRummy Root Browser and Call Blocker, then make them system apps.
What is the list of bloatware and trial apps included with the phone?
Can you test the capacity of the battery and confirm the claim of 4000mAh capacity?
What functions does the Notification LED support?
I'm considering this or the W8 as a purchase....:fingers-crossed:

What a shame, I did some investigating on this ADWARE and it is not that difficult to to remove. This was good information for me should I purchase a phone and this apk installer is loaded into the OS.
Actually, my 1st red flag would be a new phone purchase that is pre-rooted, this would be alarming to me as someone messed with the OS. The good thing is, you can do a factory reset in most case's and the offending apk will be deleted. You will also loose root, you have to reinstall SU.
In some case's the offending apk can just be deleted without a system reset, its the more involved, rooted and moved to system apk that is the problem.
Read about this BS app installer installed by Chinese RESELLERS, not the actual manufactures.
http://edtblah.ddns.net/index.php/2016/04/21/how-to-get-rid-of-systemfqad-malware/
1. Kaspersky found only one AdWare, DrWeb and other foun nothng.
2. Seems to me it is really 3500-4000, because I have 30% battery after one day, Its good for 6'
3. Only for charging status and new messages.
But, I have serious issue with GPS, I have very weak GPS signal level. In comparison with Samsung S4 (10-12 satellites with 20-30 lvl) W9 have only 3-4 satellites with 15-20 lvl. Therefore I can’t use navigations programs, I got always “GPS Searching”. I have disassembled phone, and seems to me GPS antenna is a piece of siht.

I am pretty sure the phone wasnt rooted when I received it, several apps told me it wasnt, and I tried deleting some apps through the menu, and couldnt (but I never tried using a terminal). Of course, that doesnt mean the phone wasn't rooted at some point during the supply chain after it left the factory.
I tried a factory reset and these apk's remained installed and the AV programs still detected them.
To be honest, after "AlexDem"'s report of not having the malware, I am half-tempted to try ordering another one from somewhere else. I liked the phone otherwise. However the GPS issues are concerning - i dont remember testing the GPS. However my discussions with the Kenxinda sales rep were not all that encouraging, he seemed to admit the malware was there, but dismissed it as being a minor problem. But maybe that was just his limited english wording it wrong, he may not have meant that their actually is factory installed malware.

Somebody opened up the OEM rom, installed the apk, flashed it to the phone. This is why it was persistent when resetting to factory.
This may be why you had the problem with removing it.
This or the W8 will be my next purchase.
I just had delivery of the vPhone X3, it came with 2 bad IMEI's. They are 356666666666666\8 ... This is invalid as an IMEI here in Canada.
Also, at http://www.protectyourdata.ca/en/check-the-status-of-your-device-in-canada/ they both come up as "Your Device has been Reported As Lost Or Stolen'. Consequently the phone cannot be operated here in Canada by any of the networks.
These generic IMEI's supplied are generally used when a good IMEI is removed for a stolen phone and the generic one is installed as the swap-out replacement.
It has a 3200mAh battery, not the 4500mAh as advertised.
It uses 10mm mUSB rather than the regular 6mm.
It uses 19mm earphone plugs not the regular 14mm.
None of my headphones or USB cables will work with the phone.
Did you have any of the the USB or earphone issues with the W9?
Im pretty sure it was standard USB, however, the rubber casing did prevent one of my usb cables from plugging into it. Another of mine fitted fine.
Never tried the headphone jack. I sent the phone back.
I contacted another shop, China Vision, with the intention of maybe purchasing one, and they very nicely told me the following, after a few emails back and forward: "They are from the same supplier and I think it may have this malware issue" - This, combined with what the Kenxinda sales rep said, I wouldnt touch the phone.

But, I have serious issue with GPS, I have very weak GPS signal level. In comparison with Samsung S4 (10-12 satellites with 20-30 lvl) W9 have only 3-4 satellites with 15-20 lvl. Therefore I can’t use navigations programs, I got always “GPS Searching”. I have disassembled phone, and seems to me GPS antenna is a piece of siht.

GPS antenna's can be made from fine wires that are twisted and glued into place.

An antenna mod may also be a copper sticky larger than the original that would accomplish the same thing as the wire mod.
This isn't really isn't a difficult mod as it appears you have lots of room to work with.
There is also a software fix, you need to dump the GPS cache and reload the GPS data, specifically for your location, then it should work better.
I would try the software fix 1st before the hardware mod.
Please answer me this, what length is the headphone plug, the standard 15mm or the longer 19mm?

Im pretty sure it was standard USB, however, the rubber casing did prevent one of my usb cables from plugging into it. Another of mine fitted fine.
Never tried the headphone jack. I sent the phone back.
I contacted another shop, China Vision, with the intention of maybe purchasing one, and they very nicely told me the following, after a few emails back and forward: "They are from the same supplier and I think it may have this malware issue" - This, combined with what the Kenxinda sales rep said, I wouldnt touch the phone.

I've been doing malware and virus removal for over 10 years with Windows and Android (Linux) now.
Of the 2 systems, android is the easiest to clean and repair as its a socially engineered application. Rarely is it factory installed and even so if it is, once rooted you can, once again, easily delete the offending app.
If the offending app is installed with the recovery, you must flash a cleaned ROM to the phone so wen you do a Factory Reset, the offending app doesn't show up again.
Easy Peasy ....

OK, so you have to do this from scratch.
Once discovering the location of the of the offending app ( generally: system>app or system>priv-app) you make note of it.
You would have to do a back up of the ROM with the NVRAM, open up the ROM, remove the offending app, zip it up then flash it over the sh##ty ROM.
A little bit longer but not more complicated, just 2 more steps to learn.

15 mm, see photo, but I use Samsung headphone, because sound is better.
BTW, You should use Headphone with jack diameter less than 6 mm, because jack must fit with hole in smartphone. You can't use headphones with L-type jack.
Guys, I have firmware from Ginzzu RS97D, this is another name of Kenxinda W9 on Russian market. Ginzzu support told, than there is new firmware.
Maybe this is new android (6.0 - who knows?) with no malware and GPS fix, I really don't know. I can't update it right now, and next week too. If you have curiosity, try to do it at you own risk.

Just a rebranding of the same garbage?
This way Kenxinda can distance themselves from the malware issue and claim that the rebrander did this.
Spend a bit more and get a Xperia or Samsung, even a Cat C60. Then you wont have to cry later on. Also, buy from a proper inhouse reseller, not eBay or AliExpress that hosts resellers.
If you cant find the ROM at ReedRom or the manufacturer wont provide it, then don't buy it, as there is no way to reflash the stock ROM should you need it.
Not releasing/providing your ROM is highly suspicious.
They seem to be going under a few names, there is an identical (I think) product called the MFox A10 Pro, which is quite a bit dearer. https://www.chinavasion.com/china/w...es/MFOX-A10-Pro-Military-Standard-Smartphone/

I wont buy a phone that the ROM is not available. Under the Linux Open Source Licensing and the Google Licensing Agreements, you have to publish the ROM.
Any company that doesn't do this is hiding something from the pubic, such as pirated or unlicensed software included or, in this case, malware in the ROM.
RUN! ... DON"T WALK, in the other direction..........
I have tried to download ginzzu rs97d firmware to Kenxinda W9, everything is Ok, GPS fixed and touchscreen works better.

Kenxinda is, possibly, a rebranded factory 2nd?!
Kenxinda is, possibly, a rebranded factory 2nd, this is the distinct feeling I get after viewing the GiNZZU site.
GiNZZU has over 20 service outlets in the Russian Federation, Kenxinda has 1 place to get help ... https://www.facebook.com/Kenxinda.Malaysia/?! ... You would be better off to buy a GiNZZU.
http://www.ginzzu.com/
4PDA Forum: http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?act=search&source=all&result=posts&sort=rel&subforums=1&query=ginzzu&st=0
***EDIT***
Kenxinda Malaysia refused to release the ROM, they insisted I send it in for repair to a service center.
***EDIT***
Kenxinda Malaysia has promised to send me a link when they receive it from the manufacturer.........Hmmmmm, 4 days ago.
***EDIT***
Kenxinda does not manufacture the phone, they had to request the ROM and wait for it from the manufacturer. Then they sent me a link for it, the link was only valid to December 5th, the W8's ROM is posted at NeedRom with the W9 ROM from GiNZZU.
I suspect this is a rebranding of the GiNZZU line of phones from the Russian Federation. This GiNZZU line has a really well developed service outlet chain, over 20 locations. Kenxinda on the other hand ... ? ... I haven't found one to date! Kenxinda kept repeating themselves...'Send it back to the supplier for service', which is impossible because I'm in Canada and most resellers are in China, do the shipping math, its cheaper to buy a new phone. Regardless, Kenxinda doesn't have service centers, they have resellers.
I am planing to get the GiNZZU RS97D / Kenxinda W9 but i need root, maybe someone can test if you can root it with this

Hello Guys. I just purchased my Mate 10 Pro but it's running on retail Demo.
I tried to remove the app by disabling the retail demo app as administrator and Unistall it but it failed.
I also tried installing the firmware which I got from getdroidtips. After creating the dload folder in the internal storage I moved the update.zip to it and shut down my phone. I pressed both volume buttons and the power button. It started flashing the firmware but after 5% it tells me that it failed.
Any other ideas guys?
You need to rebrand the phone. Your phone is demo branding, so without rebranding it will remain demo.

I figured that out too. I manged it to remov the retail demo app.
Do you have any other solution that isn't connected with paying? Not everyone has PayPal and this is like advertising to force you to pay.

There is only one solution for rebranding the Mate 10 at this time, and it isn't free. The only other thing I can think of would be getting the bootloader unlock code, rooting the phone, and trying to remove/disable anything demo-related, but you'd end up with a severely butchered phone. How did you end up buying a demo model anyway?

I bought it over the internet cheap. Of course I was suspicious but when I got the phone it came out that it was a real one. Only the demo software makes it unusable.
I need to open an PayPal account in order to do that.
I have some questions. How do I get the bootloader code?
I don't use Windows but Mac. Do I need windows 7 at all because my phone is recognized by ADB on Mac and I can give every command from there too.
After I open up my bootloader will it be again locked after the procedure? And the last one is do I receive OTA/security Uptades when I am done with everything?
Sorry for such many questions and thank you in advance for your help.

Where did you buy it? For how much? Let me know how to get a cheap one too! I need more test devices. I don't care if it's demo branding.
You'll need something like Parallels/VMWare on your Mac to install Windows to do the procedure.
You can get the bootloader code from Huawei, but I think they're unlikely to let you get it for demo units.
If you check the thread linked to above, you can find the tool/method which doesn't require you to unlock your bootloader, in case you're not able to get the code. But it will require Windows, and it's not exactly easy. Still, you only need to do it once. Afterwards, yes, you can get OTA updates, but they might not be pushed out very quickly by Huawei, based on experience with the Mate 9 series.
Anyway, if you're going to be using FunkyHuawei, it's probably best to continue the conversation in the FunkyHuawei support thread.

the tool is basically an msm tool but only this was first the msm tool is just way more efficient so if you are not sure i recommend waiting for the msm tool once the msm tool is released there will be no need for this emmc tool but its what oneplus has cheaply given us for now.
Does it really work? Have you tried it with a bricked phone?

well I'll let you be the judge of that this is the more complexed version of an msm tool while an msm tool does the flashing automatically in the qpst software you are going to have to search for certain files and its not easy.
I tried restoring my phone using this tool, using QPST unfortunately, a green progress bar stays green, and never continues I think it should say "connected", attempting to flash partitions on one of the tabs, results in "cannot communicate with programmer"
The standard QFIL Tool, finds the VIP partition on the phone, and then reads the information and spits out, not authenticated, and fails to continue..
A part of me wishes I could destroy the VIP partition, or at least delete it, that way QFILL would flash, and everything should work.. but then again, the VIP partition is a part of the EDL chip is it not.. it's a double edged sword..
People would have more of a chance these days taking a defib to their phones motherboard, maybe if they are "Extremely" lucky, they short out a data line that communicates with the VIP protocol, allowing the flash to happen, or their OnePlus 10T turns into a Pixel 7 Pro..

OnePlus lost my respect the second I purchased the 10T to find it still stuck on the August security patch near the end of October.. Yet they keep touting their 10T as next generation.. They hide the fine print details about USB 2.0 only, but nobody needs usb 3.0 on their "type c port".. but They really went to town using Gorilla Glass 5.. I understand Gorilla Glass Victus being too expensive, but they could have at least used Gorilla glass 6, my 10T has scratches all over its face.. and it did come with a screen protector.. But I did not get a case inside the phone box, so I had to get a phone case off Amazon, and the case would not work with the protector, so I had a choice to make, risk smashing the phone if I drop it.. or risk scratching the phone.. Now I did not watch an unboxing video, because I did not want to spoil opening the box, what I was not expecting was no case.. Actually I think there was a case, a case of why OnePlus..
Also.. Never activate Zen mode.. I turned that on for 20 minutes without reading, and either that is OnePlus's way of saying this is software bricking to a whole new level.. Or they really like their users..

If anyone wants a list of the USSD codes they will have to private message me because it is extremely long and I will have to warn that you need to be careful which ones you use because some will call the emergency services of your area for you, some of the codes don't seem to work properly and I don't know if it's matter of software or if it's a matter of the phone dialer cuz I found out previously that your USSD code access depends on the dialing app not on the phone model.

How do the USSD codes give you access to the sales tool if the tool runs on windows? and requires an Oppo login. The kicker is most people browsing these threads cannot use their dialer as their phone will be bricked, which means if this is true, it would only be useful for people who can run the USSD codes on their phone knowing they will probably end up bricking their device..

Do not waste your time trying to re flash / unbrick 10T you will kill your phone without a proper working EDL / MSMtool
The only thing you can do is flash a working phone from android 13 to 12 via local update. zip file which is nothing to do with EDL /MSMtool
