so i've installed nought about some months ago, and its started slowing down, wouldnt run apps, compatibility problems, cant root or install xposed. and i'd really like to get back to my stock rom. i uninstalled the stock rom backup because i needed space (i know im an idiot.) any help would be appreciated. thanks.
EDIT: i found something, its europe open (has no clue what it means,) which i hope will work because i am from europe. wish me luck!.
welp, im back. seems to be installing "D32010c_00.kdz". its 876 mb. found it on a site called lg-roms. you all think this is real? well, ill risk it.
its done downloading, just got lg flash tool, It's time.
my pc crashes when i enter adb mode on my phone, so im stuck here.
I got it working , it's now on stock again and i used the laf-d320n.img file and d32010c_00.kdz, i needed to enter fastboot to restore the laf though because my phone wasnt detected when it was turned on (i ran lineageOS 14.1 nougat nightly with usb debugging problems). so, i guess there is a solution now. (if there wasnt already)

Hi everyone
I recently updated to B609 and (as expected) my phone was un-rooted.
I decided it would be better for me to just install a ROM instead of waiting for a new way to ROOT every time a new OTA comes out. (I have seen some very interesting ones that include Xposed)
This would be the first time i install a ROM on one of my phones but i do know how to use custom recovery's and i will always keep a copy of a backup close so i can flash back when something goes wrong.
A problem i have with starting all of this: I can't seem to find a way to unlock the Bootloader on my phone.
I have looked online but i always get links for older versions/other phones/German stuff.
Second problem: The recovery. As far as i understand, there is no working TWRP for EMUI3.0. BUT there should be a working CMW recovery. Should i go fot CMW?
Third problem: Which ROM? There are 3 that grabbed my attention. Se7en-Rom (But it seems like it hasn't been updated in a while), My-RoM (which seems the most interesting for me at the moment) and Miui (which i just found out about). Which should i go with or should i use another one? I can already say that i want my phone Rooted and Xposed is something i would love to have back (since i used to have it on my previous phone).
Any advice and help would be appreciated

I have a P7-L10 with B609. I was able to successfully root it with RootGenius. When you root it, the bootloader is unlocked at the same time. As far as I can tell, the root is 100%. As for CWM, you can get it from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/ascend-p7/development/mods-tweaks-kernels-recoverys-emui-2-3-t2966670
TWRP doesn't work with B609/emui3.0.
My L10 has faulty flash memory and won't accept a custom recovery, so I can't test CWM or any custom ROMs. Perhaps others can advise. Good luck!

RootGenius was the first thing i tried. It went up to 66% then i got an error but that was a fully Chinese version.
I just tried it again with the one i found by using Google and it goes up to 72%, then tells me that the root has failed.
Which version did you use?
This is what I used and it worked fine (root genius): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2789337
As for bootloader, as far as I know from, starting with firmware 133 (Emui 2.3) all devices have unlocked bootloader
CWM is the only custom recovery for the moment;
Did not try any custom ROM (I'm happy with stock ROM for the moment).
Cheers

That's the first one i tried out. The first few times it ended in an Error. I tried it again today and when my phone reboots during the process, RootGenius loses contact with my phone.
And there is a bootloader-ish thing, but the only options i have is reboot, factory reset and cache wipe.

Hmmm, strange problem. Assuming you have the latest version of HiSuite installed and your drivers are current, all I can suggest is trying again with RootGenius (I used version 1.8.7) with your firewall and antivirus disabled or perhaps trying with Vroot. If you do decide to try Vroot it probably won't work unless you disable your firewall and antivirus.

I disabled my firewall and antivirus and gave RootGenius another try. Normally it goes up to 71% and gives me the error. Now it went to 71%, rebooted and then it gave me the error. The weird part is that right before i get the error, it says the installation is complete.
Moved on to Vroot (which is called Iroot now apparently) . It took a while longer but it wasn't able to do it either.

Get in bootloader mode, if your bootloader is unlocked, it will be written and highlighted with red color. I will point out again, starting with firmware B133 (Emui 2.3) all bootloaders for L10 version (I don't know for Chinese versions) are unlocked
Cheers.
update to b615 and flash or just flash this >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/ascend-p7/development/b615-unlocked-boot-img-t3050926 and use rootgenius remove inmutable etc...

You were right! (not that i every doubted you). I found the problem i had: For some reason, i couldn't boot in bootloader trough my phone BUT i was able to do it with 'adb reboot bootloader'. After making some idiotic mistakes and having to re-flash the stock ROM, I finally was able to install My-RoM v3.3, its rooted, i have Xposed so i am happy
So thank everyone for the help!
Hi,
my ASUS ME176CX currently is:
* rooted
* xposed
* able to boot "anything" (unsigned bootloader)
* using L-Speed
and is running UL-K013-WW-12.10.1.24
So fine so nice...but:
My charging rate drops from 0.5% each minute to 0.125% each minute.
APK-files I download from apkpure reaches the external SD-card as *.zip files, which
I first have to rename to install them (so the structure as such is not touched).
May be all this problems are a result of my experimenting...
I think it is time for the total reset of everything.
But what to take?
* UL-K013-WW-12.10.1.24 again ?
* UL-K013-WW-12.10.1.33 (I read about a sever impact to battery life, though) ?
* UL-K013-WW-12.10.1.36 ?
* the russian lite version of the 36er firmware (I read of not working audio/gps/camera with this?)
* anything else which I had not found while searching?
And: Since TWRP now is installed, I would flash whatever it is advisable to flash with that...
and overwriting the code of a running program -- in this case the flashing application: TWRP itsself.
At this point I need the help of some deep gurus, I think?
How should I flash what firmware to get "the most" (less lagging, more battery life) out of my tablet?
Thank you very much for any help!
Cheers,
Noriatell
PS: Does anyone has experienced any wearout of the internal flash due to write cycles so far?
i use .36 uk release and i havent got any issues with it, ive rooted and debloated (i dont know why people are banging on about a russian lite version, its just debloated aswell isnt it)..
Theres been no point really for TWRP so far, i dont know if a custom rom will be released anytime soon
Hi russy23,
thank you for your reply
One thing I didn't understand (language problem...I am no native english speaker):
"Theres been no point really for TWRP so far" means: There are no problem reported
so far flashing a official ROM with the combon of unsigned bootloader and permanent
TWRP?
Do I need to reflash the bootloader?TWRP again?
Sorry for the tutti frutti of questions...I simply fear to lock out myself from the tablet...
Thanks a lot!
Cheers
noriatell
Ive not lost TWRP after i reflashed the official firmware, so it must be a permanent recovery..
well we were given TWRP a while ago to flash custom roms and eveything has gone silent since, for me stock rom debloated is good

Hi russy32,
I flashed the 36er ROM...and got an error at the end...but it rebooted fine (so far...did made extensively testing right now, though).
I had to reflash SUPERsu and xposed, but this seems to be quite normal...
Do you know, what triggers this error (Saying "Error flashing <filename of ROM>.zip") ?
When reflashing the 24er ROM there was a problem with a check in one the scripts, which has to be removed by hand before flashing...
I currently dont know of any similiar with the 36er ROM. And that failure was right in the beginning of the process and the ROM.
Is there a way to check whether I am on 36er ROM now (something which is for sure, since the "About" is only a copy of a string...)?
Cheers,
noriatell
If I remember correctly I got an error when installing..but everything was working well after..I installed it through adb. The only way I know to check version is the about section

Bad news...
To get a clean install without error I wiped cache, system, Dalvik-cache and system and reinstalled the ROM.
I got errors and a bootloader-loop (stuck in the "Intel" logo).
Now the tablet is charging...I need new power for the next steps.
TWRP is still working.
What had caused this?
How can I get back a clean boot?
Post edit:
I have reapplied my nandroid backup of the 24er ROM. It works so far (It boots). But I have
back the problems I described above.
Question remains:
How can I get a clean install of the 36er ROM?

Hi all
I had a VIE-L09 running software C40B181 (C40 is Telefonica, or O2UK)
I used Firmware Finder to download and install B330 (listed as FullOTA-MF) which worked fine, but then I realised I couldn't use Android Pay any more. Everything else was working though, albeit with fairly poor battery life.
Last week I thought I'd tackle this, so I read up and found that I could "debrand" to C432, go back to B181 on that customer, and then let it OTA up to Nougat.
I unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP (had to use a different one, the usual one listed in the P9+ threads gave a black screen but apparently this happens on other Nougat Huaweis too, I found a better TWRP for something like the regular P9 which worked OK.
I then tried a couple of methods to root, the first just failed (installing SuperSU via TWRP) so I tried Magisk (?) which - HORROR - made my phone bootloop.
After many hours, with only access to Fastboot, I managed to flash the stock Nougat Recovery (the MM one just hung), downloaded the C40B330 UPDATE.APP again and flashed it by putting it in dload via an SD Card adaptor for my PC. Very long process but it got my phone booting.
Except now, it has no Bluetooth or NFC, all the stock apps are missing, there's not Update in settings any more.
I believe this is due to the other .zip files that Firmware Finder can download, the three it gives me are are update_data_full_hw_eu.zip, update_data_full_hw_normal.zip and update_data_full_tef_normal.zip
How do I apply these three zip files as it looks like these have the stock apps at least, and I feel they'll get the Bluetooth and NFC working too. I no longer have TWRP, can I somehow install them with stock recovery? The _tef one is 1.28GB and includes another UPDATE.APP file but installing that via dload does very little.
What was very embarrassing is that a Huawei rep got hold of my phone as I was in a store asking if they could fix it.... he started quizzing me where I got B330 from. Nothing he tried worked, mainly because it's all missing! For example dialling the *#*#2846579#*#* doesn't do anything on my phone, the diag app is missing....
Same
I have the same problem... i also cant install twrp anymore...
if you found a solve please write me
[email protected]
I had this problem too,
I got VIE-L09C40B334 finally, previously I was running B181 ON O2UK.
The problem you face is that in order to install the update_data_full_tef_normal.zip, you have to have TWRP and in order to flash it as a zip.
I lost all my apps, bluetooth, NFC and keyboard!.
after flashing the zip, it all returned.
try to flash official rollback package it work well for in case something went wrong you can go back with this package
Rollback installed TEST-KEYS for me! That's even worse!
It's no longer my daily phone, I got so frustrated with the stupid firmwares and customer locking that I bought a Pixel XL. I've not thrown the phone away so when I'm less angry I'll dig it out and try and fix it so I can sell it on.....

Out of interest, does Android Pay work?
When I first installed B332, everything worked great (keyboard, NFC, bluetooth, apps, that diagnostic mode you get by dialling a number) apart from Android Pay blocked my card as it said it was a custom ROM.
It was only my efforts to get a non-custom ROM that led me to break everything else!
OK so I finally got my dev unlock after one week. I immediately installed TWRP and was in awe as I did my first TWRP 64 bit backup and watch in amazment as I backed up everything. Having a global version is obviously a big mistake if I want to use roms though as I tried XOSP, and Pixel PI and had nothing but errors. I then tried to use the Chinese TWRP version as advised by someone and reflash the rom. This amounted in a big mistake as everytime as it would only reboot to TWRP.
Next I noticed that all files in the File Manager were garbled (encrypted?) so I started panicing and trying different TWRP's and wipes as per different instructions. In the end my stupid ass is stuck with fastboot lock out; no recovery and now I can't even flash recovery from fastboot ?!?
Next : I tried MIflash wont take the latest global rom files extracted to folder (missing flash all .bat) nor Mimanger wants me to log in. Nor latest Miflash.
Have I softbricked ? I feel really dumb right now. Though to be fair to me, the forums are really convelioted with many half way attempts and 3 different varients with people experimenting swapping this for that. I just wanted to get this phone to have the XDA full experience I have had for years and now I think I really messed up ...
HELPP !!!! If you are able to thanks ..
used cepheus_global_images_9.6.27_20190627.0000.00_9.0_global ; this worked... ran the .bat file : Old MiFlash doesn't work, newer ones have windows library stop errors (Java, .net missing ...probably ? ) None of the tools out seemed to work and downloads I assume were only updates (but there wasn't clear indication of this. It wasn't until I found that particular build that I could find the flash_all.bat in root. I guess that is the best option despite all these pretty tools..
Hello everyone, i’m kinda new here so i don’t really understand the «*Android language*» if i can say it.
Yesterday i realisted that my phone (Galaxy S5 Mini SM-G800R were too slow and i wanted a new rom, i was on my stock rom so i told my mom cause i don’t have pc to lend me her pc. I rooted my phone and installed TWRP. After this i downloaded thru my phone Opengapps 9.0 ARM Pico (99 MB) and Lineageos 16 for SM-G800F (400... MB) I downloaded Another Android Pie (CrDroid) (400....MB) After this i went to recovery mode and i wiped cache and i installed lineageos and opengapps, after i boot the phone and it took like 5 min and it bring me back to TWRP i don’t really know why but i just flashed CrDroid and GApps after this i booted the phone to system again and it worked fine! The wasn’t lagging anymore but it was worst it was crashing even if it was charged, i did setup without wifi cause there was no wifi so after it i decided to get stock rom back with odin3. So i downloaded it and still no wifi and the wifi list. I tried to format cache data and more reinstall but still nothing i don’t know if i should download Spooky Kernel to fix it i’m lost i really need help
Thanks to every people that help me or reply, idk if my phone is dead but my parents wont accept to buy another until the end of the years.
Do you happen to still have a copy of the TWRP you were able to flash onto your G800R? I've been looking for a working one forever now. Or if you have a link to the source you got it.
In the meantime I'll see what i can figure out about your wifi issues. Thanks in advance !

Did you wipe system and data in TWRP before flashing LineageOS 16? You didn't mention it in the post.
It's strange though that even on stock ROM you didn't have wifi, did you download the right firmware? I haven't found anything useful on sm-g800r firmware other than this tool: https://samfirmtool.com/
I didn't test this tool, use at your own caution, looks promising though.
