hi all
MY POCO F1 IS BRICKED WITH NO FASTBOOT MODE OR RECOVERY MOD:crying:
There is a way to get my phone back to life by creating a backup
“backup.img”
(root the phone first)
Format your external MicroSD card with “exfat” system file, and the size of this SD card should be morethan 16 GB , which is the size of the whole partition.
Do a full factory reset, meaning wipe your cache, data, and internal storage using either CWM, TWRP, or PhillzTouch.
Insert the SD card to your phone and connect your mobile with ADB, type:
adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/storage/sdcard1/backup.img bs=512 count=30535646
The size of the “backup.img” is around 16 GB, However, if you compressed it, it would be around 2 GB.
The way to back up “backup.img” https://www.droidsavvy.com/unbrick-qualcomm-mobiles/
Please create a backup "backup.img" and upload it so that I can download it
Any help is appreciated
Do you need a miui rom on the phone or is it possible with an custom rom?

Okay I'll try it
update:
creating the backup file now. your path to sdcard was wrong so i had to figure out whats the right path. And the command works only in twrp. right path was of=/external_sd/backup.img and i had to create the backup.img at first because it wouldnt be created by adb itself.
It will take mabee 30 minutes from now to create and a little more to place the file on my shared drive. I will notify you when its ready.

I used the easy root method, everything went fine. When I try to boot into recovery when the phone is off, it doesn't go into clockwork, it goes into hboot, or whatever its called. Then says something about Pg05diag , and then asks if I want to update. Not sure if that's normal. I can boot into recovery with Rom manger.

you need to delete the PG05IMG.ZIP file on your microsd card. It is left over from the root and is not needed.

ok plug your phone into your computer. When the options comes up what to do, select disk drive. After you do this you will more than likely and i think definitely have auto play pop up one option will be open files and folders, click on that. once it loads hit cntrl-f and type in PG05IMG, which is what you are looking for. if its on your sdcard it will be there. if you find it right click and delete.
2 questions, first I forgot about removing PG05IMG, I went to do it after reading this and it is no where on my card, did I miss something? was it removed automatically by the easy root program? second, I want to flash a rom and I know we have to wipe first, I thought I read somewhere that wiping removed our root? Please correct me if I am wrong, I know just enough about code to make me "DANGEROUS"!!!!! Thank you in advance for your help I came from an X and am loving the TB. Just have to get used to doing things differently. (adb,sdk and so on)
Any idea why I can't copy CMR backups to my PC? Weird..
I CAN copy, via MTP, everything else. The Clockwork BUs just gag MTP...permissions seem ok...good thing. Can't change them on SD card. Or so says the error...
Edit: It is the "system image" and "cache" files that are the maggot gaggers...I guess CMR won't let go of them. Doesn't matter which BU date I try. hmmm..
You connect to your PC without USB Debug on, and cant copy and paste to your desktop?\
Edit: What are you trying to do? Save a copy on your computer so you can make a fresh backup without taking up more space? Or trying to load the backup on another device?
Tivo7 said:

I can copy/paste everything except Clockwork Recovery backups. When I try to copy the CMR BUs, I get kicked out of MTP with an error to the effect of "a device attached to the system is not functioning"....then have to do the unplug/replug USB dance. USB debugging is off.

Freeing up space and making secondary backups to PC. Wireless transfers won't work either for CMR backups. Everything else WILL copy. Very odd.
..
I copied my CMR backups to an external SD card via the adapter without any problems.
Interesting...

I have the same problem,it is probably because one of the file is very big causing transfer fail. Do you have a cusom rom?

Most interesting. Thanks for taking the time to do this.
I've concluded that there must be something in my clockwork recovery that is not letting go of the file. When I get back to my pc I will connect again to try a new clockwork recovery.

No worries, let us know how it goes.
Done..
Looks like the the modded CMR that I had flashed when installing Overcomes's ROM was the culprit. At least I think it had something to do with it. Was able to copy/paste/move correctly when I installed the "stock" CMR...all is well.
Now, to get this tab back to Sammy "stock" and get it back to Amazon (Newton's Rings")...gotta luv Amazon...shipped a replacement next-day...In the meantime, I'm going to do some stock vs. rooted experiments of my own...
thanks, gang!

Hey guys, worst part about samsung devices is always their EFS issues.. my samsung tool app has already gained support for SM-G900A, SM-G900F, SM-G900H, SM-G900T before root and custom roms are available, so first thing is first, root(when available) and backup EFS!
ive kept all downloads and discussion within the original thread here! - SAMSUNG TOOL APP HERE
this was made possible by leoaudio13 dumping his partition table!

thats because nothing was accessible until after root, dumping system was easy, but any other directory/file on the device wasnt able to be read after until being rooted..
samsung didnt even include tar binary so I dumped over adb, then CF helped root and then we dumped raw images!

For full backup, which partitions do you recommend?
Galaxy S5 SM-900P Partition table
you can still simply create a copy right?
I have always had rooted phones and my SGS 5 is no exception, it got rooted using CFroot in the carpark immediately on picking it up.
I have therefore always simply made a copy of the efs folder on to the external sd card which is then synced to my dropbox.
However I have not really kept up to date with developments in these areas, so my question is nowadays is this still enough to ensure the safety of my device and it's ability to connect to my carrier. In the past when I have had issues after flashing roms and things simply deleting the /efs folder and copying the contents of my back up into it and rebooting has always been sufficient to get my carrier back up and running is this still the case with the international SGS5 qualcomm variant or do I need to consider other elements?
When will it work for SM-G900V? I just rooted my phone today and would like to use this for my backups. I just tried it by using EFS backup and now it's stuck on a triangle with an exclamation mark that says Please Wait. Ugh! Help...
Hi guys, so i'm having some problems with my SD card, i can't make my phone use my SD card entirely, i mean first of all the I/O sucks on this internal memory and it's too little, i can't even install 2 games like MC4 and WWZ. I wouldn't have come here if had not choice, i followed lots of tutorials that bricked my soft and had to reflash stock, so if any of you know any idea, it would be much appreciated, also i want to say that my phone it's rooted.Thanks in advance.

0. Make sure you have full root access
1. Install a terminal emulator app from Play Store
2. Open it and run this command: su
3. Give the app SU access
4. Run this command: dump_image boot <path to your sdcard>/boot.img
5. Upload the img somewhere for me to download

Hi guys, today I installed substratum and andromeda to my Xiaomi Black Shark device, applied pitch black substratum theme and rebooted my device. After reboot my device now stuck on blank screen "system ui stopped". Now fastboot and adb commands are not working because of unauthorized error (which I allowed before). :crying::crying::crying:
Only thing I can see is the reboot menu.
My devices only boots up fastboot and there is no recovery ( when I select boot to recovery, devices boots up normally and stuck at blank screen with system Ui stopped message)
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

You need FX file explorer - it can move files & folders without root. So you open /root directory & copy /system and /vendor folders to external, or internal sd. Pack it up & upload to any cloud drive you can)

In fx file explorer? Weird, i had many people who did that without any root.
Try making system & vendor folders on sdcard, open orignal ones & try copying folders with files to created ones, not every file would be copied, but this should work
This does not work without root. Not on the Black Shark nor on any other Android 8 Smartphone i reviewd before.
