Oreo Beta - Rollback

Hello,
Try somebody to rollback on 7.1.1? I have request that few days ago but nothing happen.

i read that there is an option from the beta menu...don't know for sure i am still using 7.1.1 but can you/did you check in the system menu or developers etc?

i cant even get into the "boot menu" using volume up +power button. very odd

Starting from yesterday Rollback from Oreo beta to Nougat is working, i got OTA and i'm back to Nougat.

i had to rollback to android 7 via OTA because the camera only worked once and then never again (black screen).
even a factory reset on android 8 didn't help (camera was again able to take only one picture and then black screen again).
of course i immediately reported the problem via feedback function.
wondering why noone in here noticed and reported that so far...
for me, a phone is useless without camera working.
anyways.. now after rollback i am stuck with september 1st security update (rom version 3.08B).
before i entered the ad8 beta, i could receive october security patch on ad7 (rom version 3.09A).
anyone else also stuck and not receiving october-patch when back on android 7?

You're the first person I've heard have issues on Oreo. No problems with camera for me.

ok.. that's surprising since even a hard-reset did not solve-it for me.
i used the ported google camera-app with hdr+.
and after taking one initial picture, neither the nokia cam, nor the google cam was working anymore.
nokia cam reports that it can't connect to the camera hardware even after deleting google-camera app.
is noone using the google camera and experiencing the same problem?

After your post google camera uninstalled from my Nokia

because it might not have happened to anyone else. I don't have any issues so far on beta. NIL I have installed the google camera and that app works heaps better than the nokia stock.
edit. No errors of any sort, black screens or hang. Just buttery smooth. Just wondering if the model variant is the cause. I have the 1012

Does the rollback formats/resets the phone?

It does and iirc that warning was given.

I am sick of asking nokia and sarvikas on twitter and elsewhere maybe XDA can help in this matter. As there is no official PC suite of sorts for nokia android What is the best option available to create a local backup including( or mainly ) app data. I need something that can restore it after the roll back as it will be wiped out for some reason. MIUI didn't do that.

Nokia 7 Plus from PIE to Oreo rollback?

Hello guys,
2 weeks ago i flashed this firmware from sideload into my device all ok, but right now i am facing battery drain and NFC doesn't work properly so i wan't to go back to PIE and yes i already read the topic that is available on the forum but i cannot get it work.
1 i am getting timestamp error
2 i cannot somehow change the slot cause my PC doesn't detect my phone or some drivers are missing ? however i can use adb good when the device is on.
which means when i am in the download mode, power + volume - menu adb just says waiting for device.
anyone can send me adb drivers or some short ? thanks.

The procedure only requires the use of your smartphone and a file manager:
Download the update file from the Google servers from
https://android.googleapis.com/pack.../105d70f18f853101a4e4d47f66b60a97318bc589.zip
name the downloaded file in the "Download" folder to "B2N-322C-0-00WW-B01-update.zip" and move it to the root folder (the most generic one)
Using the Phone app, enter the code * # * # 874 # * # * # * to start the update

In your post you said you want to go back to Pie.
Once in the bootloader mode you start every command not with adb but with fastboot (when changing port)...

That is strange, if you got that far.
Can you connect the phone in debugging mode and try adb devices command in cmd?
Sometimes the deamon is not running, you have to start it with that command...

Unable to get the Android 10 update

Hi all,
I am writing from India. I am using a nokia 9 pure view device. I have not gotten the Android 10 update. I am on Android 9, the November security patch.
I am blind so use talkback. I know there is a way of loading the ota update via using adb and the recovery mode. However, in recovery mode, talkback does not work so I am wondering how to get this update.
I have contacted Nokia support without success. The India support did not have any official information on the update and when I contacted Nokia on twitter, I was told to wait as the update would be rolling out in patches. This was in December. I understand that we are up to the first security patch of Android 10 and still no update. I cannot determine if this is a problem with India or something with my phone.
What can I try to get the update?
Pranav

Other than continuously trying to run the Update check manually via System Settings, not sure there could be an alternate solution.
Or, perhaps a fellow Android enthusiast around your area who is familiar with running adb commands may help you out?
Good luck with updating, hope your phone receives it soon.

PL] Thanks for your message. I have been checking since December 6 without success. However, I have extracted a logcat dump after running the manual check for updates via adb. The log is on my blog but I do not see how to paste the link because I am not permitted to do for anti-spam reasons. I'll try below and hopefully someone will be able to put the link together.
techesoterica dot com /wp-content/uploads/2020/01/update01.txt

something that's easy to miss is to make sure you don't have ad blockers running. I had blokada and it interfered with the phone's ability to detect the update.

It's not a problem with your device.
Nokia 9 Pureview in UK and India are not getting their updates delivered on time. Others having the same device are also experiencing this problem.

Hi all,
I have fixed the update issue and am posting the solution here for completeness. I do not think I can post links. The answer is on my blog at techesoterica dot com.
The fix involves using recovery mode to apply two updates manually after which the regular patches show up.

February security update has been issued.

Help please for android security patch Mate 10 ALP-L29

Good afternoon,
So I got a Mate 10 Dual sim ALP-l29 (C636). I used to be on EMUI 10, but I want to root it (for one reason only, unlock camera api to get raw on the monochrome sensor).
I managed to roll back 2 times and ends up with 8.0.0.143 with the security patch of 1 october 2018. Unfortunately I need to be on June 2018 to be able to unlock the bootloader and then, root it.
So I tried hisuite proxy and copy paste links to try to get to an older firmware but I'm stuck.
Ideally I want ALP-L29C636B136 (8.0.0.136)
What should I put for CUST and PRELOAD ?
ALP-L29-OVS 8.0.0.136
ALP-L29-CUST 8.0.0136(C636)
ALP-L29-PRELOAD 8.0.0.136(C636R1)
I tried, hisuite, it download the files but then it stops at the install and failed.
I tried via the sd card and dload folder but stops at 5%.
A bit lost, if someone could help that would be awesome !

There is a solution, but requires the back cover removal and a paid software.
However, if you are interested in camera API, you will be disappointed, because Huawei devices has only limited support, no matter the firmware version.

Nope, camera2api support it's always limited. It was like that since Mate 10/Pro was released and sadly Huawei never enabled full support.

[NEWS] EU A2020G Android 11/R Update

ZTE used to post their OTA images on the Germany Site (ztedevices.de), however they now post these on the somewhat global official site:
Download link: https://ztedevices.com/en-eu/support/select-product/axon-10-pro/
(Select Germany, then download "From Android 10 to Android 11")
Just like installing OTAs before, unpack the zip file, copy the "update.zip" to the phone, then goto Settings--System and Update--System Update, Install the zip, reboot and you're done.
New features and fixes:
--1.Fixed transition animation when opening apps (As in 9 or 10, just the "square" animation) and swiping back to home page.
--2.App Drawer background is now pure white, the text is black just like Pixel Launcher does.
(The Launcher still doesn't change a lot (but CN version does), same Wallpaper and WallpaperPicker, but fixed changing size problems of some widgets)
--3.New notifications page and Settings. Reduced the gap between two signal meters (if you have two sim cards then you will notice)
--4.New lock screen settings and always-on display, fixed color temprature changing.
--5.Have two dial pad tones (DTMF and piano), four screen locking sounds.
--6.Screen-edge mistouch prevention and quick waking up GAssistant by pressing the power button.
Screenshots are below, transition animation demo:

Same problem here. Does anyone know a way to flash a complete ROM without having the bootloader unlocked? Can I use EDL? I even have a working Axon 10 with Android 11 firmware. But I do not know how to flash via EDL.

Any chance this will work on the now forgotten US version?

I am unable to perform the update coming from 2.9 :-(

Seems like it's unable to upgrade from 2.9, and I didn't notice there's even a 2.9 package. I upgraded from 2.8 successfully, maybe you should use OTA or MiFlash to downgrade to 2.8 and perform another upgrade.
Besides, the rollback package for this version seems useless, so if you want to rollback, you have to use MiFlash and the EDL packages to reset to V1.6 or later.

Thanks for the reply. I'm sad. The Axon 10 is a perfect design and piece of hardware. I also had an Axon 7 before, so I have 4-5 years of experience in ZTE software support and I can say it may be the worst in the planet. In the end, I decided to switch to Pixel 6. It was very well priced with Bose headphones, although not Bose is my favorite, but a good name and quality, right?

Exactly. The reason I use this phone is that this was gifted by one of my relatives when I graduated from high school. If there was a chance, I would possibly choose OnePlus or Xiaomi. Thanks to XDA, there are still some chances to customize my phone.

Hi there, I just downloaded and unzipped the file to the root but it doesn't show up when I look for an update, do I need to unlock the bootloader? I'm from Mexico

The only deference between G and U version is the modem.
If we can extract the modem from your phone maibe we can flash G ROM to USA version.
I did that in Axon 7 .worked great.
So I need some instructions how to that.
If anyone can help would be great.

Well, the idea is like this:
Flus the G full EDL image whit MIFLAH program.
Link to EDL: A2020G_PRO_V2.1 android 10 EU_FULL_EDL.rar — Yandex.Disk.
Ty to dimkin_76 and djkuz
** stay whit the G modem!!!!
Restart the phone. You will have WI FI. You will get system update to V 2.8. take it.
After you have the V2.8 , then get the android 11 SD card update.
Download the SD card update to android 11 From this post, ty to Willwongprd:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/news-eu-a2020g-android-11-r-update.4338393/
download link:
https://oss.ztedevices.com/prod/cn/...ware(414360B1331MyOS11.3.4_A2020GPro_EEA).zip
make the update.
Restart the phone and you have the android 11 MYOS on your phone but whit G modem.
Now its time to flush U modem.
Download the U full EDL image from hear: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=17248734326145680432
Ty to bobthenormal.
Extract the file and copy the MODEM .BIN file to another library .
Rename the MODEM.BIN , twice to: NON-HLOS.bin AND NON-HLOSb.bin.
To flush the modem I used this tool: Axon 10 EDL Tool 3.2.5 from this treed:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ash-backup-restore-bootloader-unlock.3964605/
( There is another tool but it didn’t worked for me.)
Put the 2 modem files you renamed in the flush/modem library in the Axon 10 EDL Tool 3.2.5 folder.
Connect the phone to computer and activate the program and choose flus the modem. It take me some time until the program worked for me but finaly it did.
After the modem flush you will have ex U variant phone whit android 11..
Good luck….
Ty to all for the hard job to keep your AXON 10 PRO alive…
Chears…
