Hi all, have a few questions that might seem daft to some but need to get my head around it.
I have my Mix 4 and its obviously running the CN Rom. It is littered with bugs and there are many features that do not work or just missing, to the point where i could not use it as my daily driver in its current form.
Ive been reading up on flashing the EU Odin rom, and see alot of the issues are already fixed in it.
So after 4 hours of faffing i have managed to request a bootloader unlock. and i understand this will be a full wipe and reinstall.
This is my first question 8 days wait!
1: how do I keep an eye on the time left?
2: I have what i think are all the files ready to go to flash, but i understand this is done through fastboot?
3: So no OTA updates after this i would have to keep reflashing manually.?
4: I here something about TWRP that would enable this, but dont quite understand the process, or where do the updates then come from?
5: Are there any security issues like running Banking applications after unlocking, as i think it plays with security issues.
Hope someone with better understanding can help.
Hi...
1) I use my calendar to see when the time is right to resume the unlocking process
2) there's tutorial for this ...
[ROM][MIUI][odin] Xiaomi.eu ROM for Xiaomi MIX 4
How to install Xiaomi.eu ROM for Xiaomi MIX 4 We will release fastboot ROM versions until TWRP for odin is released Steps to install xiaomi.eu ROM for first time from China ROM (All your data and files on internal storage will be deleted!) -...
forum.xda-developers.com
3) yes... no OTAs from within the system, but ...
4) with TWRP you can flash the updates. You need to check,if the update-files are marked 'fastboot' or 'recovery'(TWRP)
5) Can't answer that one.
Good Luck.
Ok thanks for your help, still deciding to take the plunge or not, expensive bit of kit. Awhile to decide i guess.
so sorry another question, if we do this one withough twrp, can we just updat or is it a complete flash again?

Updating through TWRP should leave your apps and data intact.
Edit:It was way to early to answer the question... without twrp, only fastboot is possible as far as i know. When i used fastboot, i made a complete clean flash.
So once you have done it through fastboot you can use TWRP thereafter, thats cool.
I believe a CN to EU is a data wipe anyway.

Ok guys managed to unlock my phone and flash the rom, all seemed ok untill it started updating my apps, and then gets stuck on app 8 of 144 and just will never progress?.
It seems i have somehow flashed a slightly older rom, so going to reflash with the latest, but i dont want to do fastboot again as i have to keep manually updating, is there a twrp yet?

Did you follow ALL instructions of the tutorial? How exactly did you proceed?
I think I accidentally tried to restore a google backup from my old phone, guess there was an app it didnt like, anyway reflashed to 21.9.8 and all is going well, amazing improvement over the original. very pleased.
Been having a play and only found 1 issue as yet, when you lock an open app in recents, you can still swipe it away?.

Thanks for replying. Did you have to do anything special like Magisk hide to hide that you rooted the phone?
Im not rooted, just running custom rom. I have no need to root.
What if I want to go from EU to CN? Bought the phone. It came with EU rom. But I would like to install the official rom.

Hey guys! Unfortunately I bricked my new HTC Desire 626s while fiddling around with xposed for lollipop after successfully rooting the phone and installing cyanogen recovery. I think if I flash the stock rom on the phone through either adb or cyanogen recovery I can unbrick it, but I have been unsuccessful in finding this file on the internet. Would anyone care to give me a link or upload the stock firmware/rom of this phone? It would really help me out, thank you!
You have to make sure the firmware is the same version or newer than the one currently on the phone as well as which carrier or region the phone is from. Without that, can't provide the correct file to download.

Umm.. Okay so I guess I'll give you my phone's info? WAIT DOES THIS MEAN YOU CAN PROVIDE A DOWNLOAD!? IM SO EXCITED, UH OK HERE
- HTC Desire 626s
- Metro PCS USA
- Current firmware version : 1.06.1550.7
ANYTHING ELSE?? IF YOU CAN GIVE ME THAT DOWNLOAD LINK, MY MOM WONT KILL ME:crying::crying::crying: (she's really pissed :laugh Thank you btw!
Was just thinking about this...if you soft bricked after attempting to install Xposed, and nothing else, you should be able to get out of it by flashing the xposed uninstaller zip. If that does not work, stay tuned to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/desire-626/help/htc-desire-626s-root-recovery-t3169169 as there are some others at the end of the thread in a similar predicament. It does not appear that there is an official RUU yet for the Metro version, only the T-Mobile version, and they are not compatible. Just try the uninstaller zip first because that would be the easiest thing to try and should only take a couple of minutes.

I tried this before my phone got ****ed and it worked:good:! If you can help me dude that'd be great. After uninstalling or changing some stuff in priv-app on my HTC Desire 626s, when I rebooted, it would just stay in a boot loop with the optimizing app message. Any ideas?
What did you uninstall? I would ask for those apps in that thread and use a flashable zip and install via TWRP. You might also try clearing caches and/or resetting the phone again. It DOES take a long time to optimize the apps after wiping stuff as well, so sometimes it is a matter of being patient.
This is why I ALWAYS recommend to freeze apps vs uninstalling. Uninstalling them does not get you any usable space back, so there is no benefit, but it can cause issues if you do need the apps, as you can see...

I believe I uninstalled the dialer and its service in an attempt to replace them with the stock lollipop ones. How do you install TWRP on this phone? My mom has the same phone and its also rooted but hers actually works so I was thinking since TWRP has a nandroid backup setting, I could simply do a nandroid backup on hers and flash it on to mine to see if it will boot up. What do you think? And for the optimizing apps thing, it would finish optimizing, say starting apps, reboot and then optimize again and repeat. Thanks for the help btw, I really hope we can fix this.
You have to unlock the bootloader @ htcdev.com and use fastboot to install TWRP. And yes, that would work, as long as they are on the same software update. Know that when you unlock the bootloader, it will automatically wipe the phone, so make sure she has everything backed up to Google, the PC, etc.

Do you have the TWRP recovery file for me to download?
I'm afraid I'm a bit confused... How did you install Xposed and the Uninstaller without a custom recovery? Upon further searching, there doesn't appear to be a version of TWRP for your phone that I could find. Just figured you already had one. You must be on Kit Kat and not Lollipop?

I installed Cyanogen recovery before flashing Xposed and the uninstaller. I thought you had the TWRP recovery img for my phone which is why I asked. I believe some developers are working on a Clockworkmod recovery for this phone which is basically the same thing as TWRP recovery, right? Anyways I guess I just have to wait until that comes out, but I was wondering if anyone who somehow got a hold of the stock rom could upload it for us to use. It would be really helpful
ClockWorkMod is the recovery that Cyanogen uses. That is able to perform nandroid backups as well.
You have to unlock the bootloader, then if you messed up your stock rom and you've updated it to something newer than what Samsung gives for a stock recoverable rom, you must first use the tmobile vers, let it fail, and then use metropcs vers.
If you messed up recovery or anything it will all go back to stock after flash.
Next just copy superuser zip file to phone, go to download mode and adb flash cyanogen recovery img. Then reboot to recovery, choose to flash update, and find the superuser. zip and flash it, voila.

Kitkat, anyone?
Does anybody have a stock KitKat ROM for this device? I'd like to try to bypass the FRP, but am stuck on what must be either a marshmallow or lollipop ROM.
What carrier do you have?
I can send you a backup of the FRP.img for Marshmallow or for lollipop.
You can dd if= flash it to your device and you should be all good.
I am looking for any older roms for these devices too.
Seems like not too many people save the RUU and then HTC only releases the newest.
I got lollipop and marshmallow that's it.
But like i said we can fix the frp partition.
Issue is fixed

I ended up fixing it using some ADB commands as noted in the "Well, I may have found..." thread. It'll be nice to have this phone out of my life. The day I had to spend with it was two days too many.
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...

Hi all,
Feels good to be back.
let's cut to the chase, Im looking for a new Custom ROM for my RN3 Kate Device(as I always used MIUI Stable ROMs, currently MIUI10); I kept looking at all those ROMs/versions ( and some kernels ) and it's stupidly overwhelming, I can't even count them anymore; dont get me wrong tho, its a good thing.
Since Q3 2018 I've been using my RN3 Kate mostly for gaming, but also, browsing / Mail / Youtube. My RN3 It's no longer my daily driver.
So, I should be looking at performance/gaming ROMs (/Kernels), not customization centered ROMs, right ? The problem is, how can I distinguish between them ?
I mean, back in day almost every ROM/Kernel had, like, 7 or 8 lines explaining what the project was all about, not only that but also "101" Screenshots, performance numbers, all that jazz; Im not seeing that anymore, not for the most part, that is.
Other thing that grinds my gears, is the bootloader, in most threads it says that I need to unlock in MM (MIUI Dev ROM), I have already unlocked my RN3 in the same month I got it or something like that; The official unlocking way. Up to this very day (MM MIUI10 Global Stable), in the phone, it still says that is unlocked.
Even if I flash that latest Dev ROM, how can I unlock it again, how is that possible ? how does that even work ?
I would like to have some knowledge members to help me out on this, to give me some advices, if possible, It would be much appreciated.

If u r flashing miui fastboot rom using PC then u need to select "Clean all" option.
If u select "clean all and lock" option then ur bootloader will get relocked. So select clean all.
If your bootloader status is unlocked then good.
To check bootloader status using fastboot command.
fasboot oem device-info
If unlock= true then ur phone is jail free.
u can install latest twrp 3.2.3 img and flash custom roms.

Views run fast, replies, not so much.
I see, so we no longer need to use 3th party software, thats nice…
its sure better than Sony's lack of support back in the day…
I did it, Lattest Dev ROM "kate_global_images_9.1.10_20190110.0000.00_6.0_global_a354395fdc" got flashed, and I still get the same result, its unlocked, like it should be.
Im pretty sure that Im missing some intel here, but its ok.

I see,
AEX 9.0, I like it, the gaming performance its also good, a bit better than MIUI10; nothing major, but still noticible. I cant notice any change in batery department, but it's holding up nicely (so far), I guess.
There's a major issue, Magisk (v18) was a "no go".
Some people are reporting a Error on flashing, in my case, I did NOT got any error, but it seems that it doesnt work anyway. Is there a workaround to this ?
Or maybe you could tell me any other ROM, root capable. Im willing to try it.
2014... 2019, Root its still not trivial, I guess some things doesn't change.
Edit: Nevermind, after some diging I found some people saying to keep flashing until the app show up. It doesnt make any sense, but it does work, after flashing the third time the app is now showing up. Rooted successfully.
Thx for your help, really appreciated.

U dont need to flash 3 times.
Magisk takes time to appear in first reboot. Its a bug . if it does not appear even after 5 min. Then restart phone. It will appear next reboot. I did it and it shows up in next reboot.

I understand, although, I can confirm this was not the case.
To be more precise, the phone was actually rebooted twice, before those re-flashes. The app was nowhere to be seen.
Some people are getting a error when flashing (maybe due to older versions), there's probably something wrong on their end too, in some way;
thanks for looking into that and finding that bug, I'm pretty sure other people will see this thread, just like I saw others.

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.

Thank you for the info! And what about staying on my current bootloader and flash a custom ROM on my already installed TWRP?

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

Hi, good evening to the community!
(EDIT: Anyway, I want to apologize if I'm doing something wrong. I recently joined).
I believe I made the biggest mess of my life, and now I'm desperate. I downloaded the latest version of TWRP, to update the one I already used; the problem is that. Now he is no longer in Recovery Mode. And worst of all? I had already deleted my OS. So, there's no way I can authorize OEM unlocking. So I can not use ADB & Fastboot. And I think I have to throw my device away as it is unusable. What should I do? I'm desperate and there are no solutions.
-Thanks

There is no need to worry if you corrupt you recover, just enter into bootloader mode then flash the recovery.
code:-fastboot flash recovery moto.img
Note:- Moto should be replaced with the recovery name
If you want to return to stock ROM then here is the procedure:-
Firmware:-https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/surnia/official/
Procedure:-https://www.google.com/amp/s/forum....tore-moto-e-2015-stock-firmware-t3044936/amp/
Done now you are now stock ROM .

Yes thanks! I did it yesterday, watching a Brazilian video. I had to download 3 different ROMs to be able to do such a process; so I did the process through Fastboot. Thank God I did not have to buy another device, hehe. And I'm already using another Custom Rom at the moment (RR, but I plan to change it as soon as I find another great new one that does not bug WhatsApp). Thank you again!
