I have not rooted my device, I did unlock the bootloader and flash twrp in slot A. I didnt understand the so lot system well and decided against rooting. Then I just set slot B as default and booted in the normal os and locked the bootloader once again.
I think the device is not updating because one of the slots has been tampered with. Do I have to flash the stock recovery on that slot to restore normal operation?

Redmi note 3 stuck in boot animation

Hi everyone, im new to XDA. But that's kinda beside the point.
I have a Redmi Note 3 with Snapdragon 650 and 2gb ram 16gb storage. I wanted to install lineage os/R.remix because im kinda bored of miui and wanted nougat. I did the following steps to install.
1. Unlocked bootloader via no-permission or hack method.
2. Installed TWRP latest as of 10-6-2017 thru Fastboot.
3. Wiped cache,dalvik and data
4. Flashed R.Remix nightly 10-6-17 and then Gapps.
In this step, I had a problem. It was giving me error:7 (xiaomi.verify.modem) and so I modded the rom (updater-script) and worked. It had the animation loop soflashed NON-HLOS modem binary thru Fastboot and flashed the original signed ROM. But, the problem persists. It's stuck in the boot animation and looping infinitely. I left it for 30min-1hr and still loops. What do I do now? Please help me in this regard. Till then, MIUI again

Don't flash that miui firmware from post above, it will relock your bootloader because you are not officially unlocked.
Best way to go is to flash latest global dev fastboot rom, unlock officially. This way you will have no problems with flashing nougat custom roms.
So, should I install the latest global developer rom? I checked yesterday it was v7.6.7 while latest global stable was 8.2.4 which I have currently installed. I also checked via fastboot OEM device-info and, yeah, bootloader locked.:crying: So, I should install the dev. Rom and ask for permission and then unlock, like, the official way? I'm waiting for the reply. Make it clear and I'll try it. Thnx.
Edit : I also somehow got TWRP uninstalled:crying::crying: I don't know if this unexpected or was doomed to happen but yeah, again, just saying.
I just asked for permissions to unlock and..... Surprise!!! I got the permission in 5 minutes!!!
I feel kinda sad for the people who are waiting for more than 21 days...

This MI Flash gets stuck at 99% even tho I got permissions (an SMS from MI) and shows current account not bound to device. What do I do? I also tried binding my account to phone by settings-->dev. options-->mi unlock which gave code 86012 and some Chinese characters which I honestly can't understand. I also tried installing global dev and doing the same thing but gives same 86012 and Chinese. Plzz help me in this regard. Would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Actually, nvm. I got lineage is installed and running on my phone by following a guide on how to install twrp without unlocking bootloader. Worked like a charm for me. I'm typing this now on lineage:silly: Anyways, thanks for the effort. Thread closed.
You could've just waited for 7 days and you would've unlocked your bootloader officially

Back to stock RNE-L21C432

Hi!
I have a big problem to return to stock after trying the Elemental v. 1.1.
I have tried the full backup from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ma...other-development/oeminfo-collection-t3762385 but it says that it is rooted when I boot it.
I then tried: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ma...evelopment/stock-rom-rne-l21c185b142-t3764065 (I know it is the wrong localization, but I was desperate, sorry ) and this actually booted with no problem, no notice of being rooted BUT now I faced that the unit had been turned into a NEO-L21.
I thought that I could fix that with the first links change of OEM, but it would not work...what am I doing wrong?
And does anyone have a backup without root, or a way to fix it using the newly published Full-OTA that have started to come for our device?
Thanks in beforehand!

I don't know what goes wrong, but it does not boot with this boot partition. Could it be because the NEO-L21 backup I restored is Android 6.0?

It's not Android 6.0. The info in "About Phone" is just wrong. You are on android 7.0. I would recommend you to do what I have done for myself.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ma...pilation-firmware-flasheables-huawei-t3761483
Follow the instruction in this topic which is:
(Remember to get the unlock code for bootloader before you flash anything !!)
1.Flash the OEM info from cust432 or whatever cust you want.
2.Unlock the bootloader and flash TWRP
3.Flash the firmware proper for your cust from the above topic and everything should work. I did this for my phone that was cust c738 before and it works like a charm now and I am on cust432. The only thing for me is that I can't do an OTA update to B133. I am on full stock without root, but I have unlocked BL. I tried to relock it to see if it changes anything but then my phone is stuck on bootloop.
So since I'm here can anyone tell me...Do I have to be on locked BL in order to perform an OTA update ?
If yes how do i relock it ? Because if i do "fastboot oem relock code" then my phone is stuck on bootloop....
We can't back to stock rom, since huawei not release online, we can go to customer service thay said.

Which Rom is the best for the Mate 10 Pro

Hey Guys,
what do you think is the best costum rom (stable) for the Mate 10 pro?

If you have the Pie update from firmware finder it's an approved ROM unless you have a modified recovery it checks and you wouldn't be able to install it if it wasn't approved so you probably have the latest approved ROM

Hi! Quick question. My BLA-L09 is on build number 8.0.0.131(c782). I'm rooted with Magisk via Pretoriano's TWRP using the all in one tool. I can't receive firmware updates because of this (they fail to install).
If I update to Pie, will I be able to root again with Magisk? How can make this update? I suppose I would need stock recovery back and don't know where to get it from it how to flash it. It was my first time doing this on a Huawei, I'm used to Samsung devices. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Nope, you won't. Any version from 8.0.0.146 and above will contain the new bootloader which won't let you unlock it or install twrp, magisk or whatever, most probably you will brick your phone like I did.
You'll be a lot safer to stay on what you're on. Huawei did a nifty development to make life miserable to anyone which likes to customize their phone. Maybe they should be called Huapple from now on...
I was in a similar situation as you, 141 if I remember correctly. Installed Xposed via magisk, got a bootloop, did a system restore via erecovery, got it working again and lost magisk/root so thought it would be the time to do the ota, didn't know about the bootloader change so found I was on emui 9, tried to install twrp but that bricked the phone. So I tried to do the system restore via erecovery again, but that didn't work.
After that tried every possible way (inc. paying funkyhw etc.) to recovery the phone, no way. If you try to downgrade it to a version before 146 it will hardbrick leaving you with a paperweigth.
So if I were you, I wouldn't touch a thing. I gave up and am waiting for my Oneplus 6, much better phone for this stuff.

There is a ResurectionRemix rom that can be used for that. Just search for RR-O-v6.0.0-20180402-bkl-OpenKirin.zip it should work as this one's flashable by twrp. I haven't tried it so can't tell if it does. I have the file but I don't know if it's complete as it only contains system.img which seems strange as normally there would also be a boot.img or at least a kernel.img

Question Xiaomi Mix 4 root and other questions

Hello, I'm about to buy this phone from tradingshenzen and i have question for you, does anybody successfully rooted this device? I'm planning to unlock bootloader there to install xiaomi.eu and root it, without root it's hard to use device personally for me. Is root possible for today? How long we have to wait to unlock bootloader? 72h or 8days? And when twrp will be available does flashing it delete user data? Thanks for replies
my unlock wait time is 7 days, flashed to EU developer weekly rom and rooted it with magisk patched boot image. did not manage to flash unofficial TWRP though always endup in with recovery_a partition not found. guess that have to wait till official TWRP is out.

Since the Mi Mix 4 is an A/B-Device, you will never ever find a recovery-partition.
I wanted to report, that if you update your rom, you will loose the Magsik SAR.

Well aware that the device is an A/B, no recovery partition. There is report of user success fully flashing unofficial TWRP using some Chinese tool (yet to find that tool). Maybe that tool flashes the recovery to the inactive boot partition.
I use to use the Mi9 which is an A/B device which I am able to flash TWRP.

How To Guide Downgrade US OEM (DE2117) Android 12 firmware to Android 11 BEFORE installing Lineage!

Lineage installation on N200 REQUIRES that you are running Android 11 or phone will soft loop after installing the Lineage boot.img
If you are updated to Android 12 firmware and want to install Lineage, you MUST downgrade first to:
DE2117 OEM Android 11 FINAL OTA
WARNING: This WILL erase all user data.
1. Place the firmware .zip file in the user root of internal phone storage.
2. Sideload OnePlus firmware Downgrade Tool on phone and use tool to flash the Android 11 firmware.
There is an Emergency Firmware install tool that OnePlus posted to the OP forum that does NOT check root status when the need to downgrade back to A11 was first acknowledged due to modem issue with first A12 OTA release.
This file was removed in a few days when they posted the official Downgrade tool replaced it.
I have used this tool to upgrade DE2117 C_16 to DE2117 C_17 while rooted and the built in upgrade tool failed at 37%.
Nice, first thanks for the hard work you're putting in. Second, is there an advantage to converting first to DE2117 then installing lineage as opposed to just installing lineage from DE2118 that you know of? I know in the other post you answered my other question stating that the Lineage will install on either so I wasn't sure if I'd get any benefit from starting over and converting my DE2118. TIA

Lineage is using own kernel and boot.img on A11 so in the short run it is not going too make any difference, but when Lineage moves forward to A12 the OEM Firmware has newer drivers and is updated sooner, has more OEM features and bugfixes as well as no carrier bloatware.
It is possible that OP will neuter the Carrier firmware with an OTA update to prevent cross flashing device away from the Carrier rom in the next OTA update by preventing fastbootd from flashing the us oem from a carrier phone.
They have already removed fastboot boot command to boot a boot image without flashing it for test before you flash and to allow Magisk to make a backup of the original boot.img before adding Magisk.
I would convert NOW, before they decide to slam the door on this ability with a future OTA that will not allow you to downgrade and prevent this as they are under contract with the carriers to not allow this to be done.
Ok, thank you for the explanation. Guess I'll back everything up and convert it.

This worked perfectly after following your convert guide and upgrading to 12. Downgraded back to 11 so I could install lineageOS. Thanks again!

I just downgraded. Make sure you remove root via magisk. Then proceed to rollback to Android 11. Everything worked fine. I'll install lineage tonight when I get home.

Just place apk in phones working directory, same path where your downloads folder is. Then install from there like any other apk and run. I also kept the FW file in the same directory but I'm not sure if that was necessary.
So, just to confirm, I press "local install" and select the firmware zip and it closes? Is the tool supposed to do anything else or am I good to flash LineageOS?

Ummm if I remember correctly hit local install and then it will prompt to point towards which FW to use. After you hit it, it will go back to the previous screen, I think verify and unpack it, then install it. Mine did appear like it was doing nothing after picking the FW and so I picked again which screwed things up so just wait after picking, it should start.
After its done it will give a message saying to restart phone I think for it to take effect, then after you restart it should ask to wipe phone, then restart again and you'd be in A11 presumably. Once in A11 your good to follow the normal procedure to install Lineage. This is all from memory though so I MAY have missed something but I don't think I did.

Nothing major, caused the UI to glitch out and made it seem like the process was stuck at 81% but when I closed the app and tried to do it again it jumped to 100 and said to restart the device.
I've downgraded a second time (I'm very indecisive on which OS I want to use) and that one went as expected since I knew to give it a second to start doing its thing.

Weird, for me it just closes the app and does nothing, both the official and emergency ones. I even tried adding it to magisk's deny-list.
But I just restored the boot image via magisk (didn't restart) and it works now...

Did you remove root (Restore boot.img) and then factory reset?
You will loose all data doing this anyway.

Yes I factory restored the phone and tried again. Still fails every time
Has anybody had any luck figuring out the verification failed message? I too have tried both the official and emergency apps, of course I can't read the actual message in what I presume is Chinese, but it doesn't do anything and the other version says verification failed. Have not rooted. Kind of at a loss right now and all I want to do is install Lineage! I've already got my unlock token from OnePlus, but my understanding is that the phone still needs to be on A11 before installling Lineage.
