Hello everyone, i got rooted Rog Phone 2 and after rooting my rog phone 2 i dont have wifi signal anymore. i unroot my phone by flashing stock + tried flashing stock boot.img but wifi is still not working, what happened and how can i fix it?

From my friend. He share the Tut for fixing it. Basically we upgraded new fw after open the phone so the boot.img extracted from the website will be difference with newest ota upgrade. Lost wifi. You have to manual flash the phone again

Right! As I haven't got the phone yet, didn't find out that new OTA have different boot.img. So as for now, rooting means just firmware on website is usable.

In the future if there is an update you will need to unroot, flash the original boot. Flash the rom update and then extract the new boot, patch it with magisk and flash the new patched boot to enjoy root again.
Personally I would rather stay on stock enjoy the timely OTA updates and keep my warranty.

Hello dungnghien,
Could you please share the steps to root it? Also, where can I find the stock firmware in case things don't go well and I need to rom it.
Would appreciate your help.

So I unlocked bootloader using apk from asus site and patched boot.img using magisk. Now how to flash "magisk_patched.img"?
Can someone help please?

Tried that already. No luck.
Is the phone supposed to go into some special download mode screen like on Samsung?

After patching the boot.img did you boot into fastboot mode and runned the command for flashing the patched boot.img.
Was the flash successfull or not?
Please be specific in what step you are having issues with and what actions you took.

I'm trying to follow steps from the tutorial.
Device is on, USB debugging on
adb devices list my device
adb reboot recovery reboots into recovery, but I don't see "Select ADB on phone" option antwhere in recovery.

There is no such option with the stock recovery. Any way why do you need that. You don't need to use ADB commands to flash the patched boot.img.

So how do I flash the patched image? I really need to root this thing and would appreciate the help.
In Samsung phones it's pretty easy, boot into download mode and flash using odin, how to do that on this phone?

Anyone wanna report if there's any issues after rooting the device?

Turn device off.
hold down volume up and power button.
I get these three options you see in screenshot.
No download mode option.

There used to be a fastboot mode on the ROG phone on Android Oreo, i am not sure if things changed with Android Pie.
Anyway try the hardware method to connect, turn your phone off and connect it to the PC using the side port make sure to hold the low volume key when connecting the phone to the PC. See if a fastboot mode black screen shows up.
If not:
On the bootloader screan the second one you showed. On your PC after going to your platform tools and running the cmd window from there type the command:
Fastboot devices
Does it recognize your device?, if it does run the 2 commands stated in step 8. But do it on your own risk if something goes wrong you might brick the device and if you are not able to flash back the stock boot i am afraid you will end up with a bricked device until a solution is suggested.

I can't get into fast boot mode. Tried all options, volume up, volume down, usb, no usb, debugging on, debugging off...
No luck.
$20 for whoever helps me get this thing rooted.

ASUS ROG2 SOFT BRICK

Hi ,
I have an ASUS ROG2 and I'm experiencing quite a problem here , I would like to know if this can still be rescue or not? or maybe I'm missing some steps here. here's what I've done so far.
Before it got to this dilemma my phone is suffering from autoshutdown so i rooted my phone using magisk and applied the thermal mode by one of the OP here. everything is working fine , the phone is not shutting down until today. it suddenly restart before me and it is stuck in ROG Logo.
what I've done.
1) i flash the stock boot img for my firmware version 2009.49 using fastboot flash boot 2009.49stock.img both slot A & B then followed by fastboot reboot so it can boot to system but it is still stock at the ROG Logo
2) i downloaded a RAW Firmware of 2009.49 , put my phone into fastboot mode. i made sure it was detected by the PC using the command fastboot devices and surely it was. i execute the flashall_AFT.cmd and waited , after it finishes my phone reboots but still stuck at the ROG Logo and here's the problem.
I reboot my phone into bootloader , scroll to Recovery after pressing Power button to select it , it boots and stuck at the ROG Logo at this point i'm confused since i need to factory reset it. so i downloaded TWRP for ROG2 Android 10 the one i usually use then i tried to boot from it using fastboot boot twrp10.img , it only boots and stuck at the ROG Logo again
3) I tried to flash a firmware using EDL mode , everything went well without any errors and there's the success message in Xiaomiflashtool , i reboot the phone to recovery and it is still stuck in ROG Logo.
any guesses? I'm kinda lost here since both RAW and EDL are not working.

You could try booting into TWRP 3.4.0-0 Q Unofficial by mauronofrio without flashing ( fastboot boot twrp-3.4.0-0-I001D-Q-mauronofrio.img ) , then copy the zip over to root of internal storage, either 2009.49 or lastest 2012.65, from here. Be sure to check during flash which slot gets flashed first. Then repeat the process, booting twrp so that you can flash the other inactive slot. If you want to be sure you have changed slots, click on reboot in twrp and see which is active before flashing. Good luck
Hopefully flashing both slots successfully will do it. Let us know how you get on.

I used the TWRP you've linked. and i'm afraid that it is stuck on the rog logo again..
what i've done. ' fastboot boot twrpQ3400.img ' after i sent that command , the phone reboots and instead of going to twrp , it goes to rog logo and stuck there.
is there anyway i could check if there's partition? it feels like the phone has no partition that's why it is always going back to the rog logo.

Did you change the name of the twrp file? the fastboot boot twrp-3.4.0-0-I001D-Q-mauronofrio.img cmd must have an identical name to the file, which as the original should be twrp-3.4.0-0-I001D-Q-mauronofrio.img
and just to be sure, you have the twrp img in fastboot folder, correct?

Yes i did rename it as twrpQ3400.img and yes also , it is in the same folder as my adb & fastboot folder enviroment.
i'll try a different approach maybe using QFIL? although i don't know where to start like finding the XML / Programmer or firehose..
any ideas?

Well i'm running out of ideas, never used QFIL so wouldn't know. since you cannot boot into twrp (i'm assuming you didn't relock bootloader? twrp won't work with locked bootloader), you could try this thread. be sure to use the supplied 1910.35 images as it tried and tested. read posts 1 and 2 at the very least, post 2 has useful steps
if successful, you'll then need to update 1910.64 before android 10 2004.60 to start with, then up to latest

yes , i didn't lock my bootloader since i can still see the bootloader unlock message.. i'm also running low in ideas , for worst it is a bricked phone at best. i'll check the link.
thanks for helping. i'll still update this thread to maybe update u as well.
edit: i checked the link , i already did the xiaomi flash tool approach on the link.. everything was a success with no errors... maybe i shud give qpst tool a try? although i'm not familiar using it.

did you remember to shut the phone down after successfully flashing, boot into recovery and wipe data, then reboot? as per the instructions...?

yes , ofcourse since the phone is in EDL mode the only way to shut it down is by using Power + volume up + volume down like around 15 seconds then phone will shutdown since the 9008 COM in device manager will be gone this means that it's no longer in EDL mode. i wait like 1minute before i power it up to recovery by power + volume down then scroll to recovery in bootloader. then with no luck still stuck to Rog logo..
it's like the recovery partition is gone...

Thanks man , i'm searching for the qfil approach but i'm getting a sahara error. currently searching for fixes
edit : i manage to boot the phone using the link you've provided by using QFIL approach and not thru XiaomiFlashTool
the phone boots successfully and i can use the recovery again ! although there's a problem , it can't read my sim card and everything is like stock android without any skins or what.. i used the RAW firmware to update it but the problem with stuck logo is back :/
gonna re-flash using QFIL and i'll check some more ~ maybe use TWRP and flash the firmware there no?
edit: the one from the link is not working , stuck at rog logo.. but the one from the internet i was able to boot to system but can't detect simcard , also when plugging to PC it will go to crashdump mode.
also can't flash TWRP will result in stuck at ROG logo :/

was able to boot the phone but can't connect to wifi and is locked by google frp :/ any guides i can follow to remove that FRP without wifi connection ?

Sorry bud, really not sure what's going on with your phone or know much more. Good luck with it tho

Actually, if you now have recovery, what about booting into twrp and flashing lastest 2012.65 zip from asus website, twice - both slots. see if that fixes your wifi issue
As you said using the QFIL approach worked to boot into system and recovery is back - boot to twrp from that state

BOOTLOOP (Cant enter recovery or fastboot) after android 11 update...

After applying the lastest update which turns out is android 11 all google apps stopped working.
When trying to downgrade i ran into the anti rollback protection when using fastboot mode (with multiple different application)
So i figured i'd flash TWRP and see if i could downgrade the rom using TWRP.
When flashing TWRP the regular way wouldn't work (TWRP wouldn't start) i used this method: https://unofficialtwrp.com/twrp-3-4-1-root-xiaomi-redmi-10x-5g/
Which includes flashing vbmeta.img and misc.bin
After doing that my phone is in a bootloop and i cant get into recovery/TWRP of fastboot anymore. So if i hold down volume up or down it just keeps rebooting after seeing Redmi with the unlocked icon on the top. There is a little vibration and then the screen then kind of fades away and it starts again...
After running into a lot of trouble with this @##[email protected]#%@ China only phone, but always being able to recover it, did i really fully brick it this time?

Use this tool and flash fastboot ROM with sp flash

Thanks mate. I cant seem to download the file, but if i could, would i have to get my phone in EDL mode to get this working? And if so, does that mean taking of the backplate and connecting pins? Or is there another method?
EDIT: HOLY CRAPOLY! That worked!!! I googled the filename to download that file somewhere else. I had no idea how to use it, but i just ran the tool, clicked disable secure boot and plugged in my phone. It recognized my phone and i was able to flash using SP flask tool!!!!

Thanks so much man! I already orderd a POCO F3 because i was sick of dealing with all these kind of problems because of the China only rom and sideloading google apps. But at least it's working again!

Hi, i'm doing fine thank you
The tool Hsnmastoor linked to in this thread worked perfect for me and was quite easy to use (if you already have the other tools setup on you computer i guess)
After using that tool (to get my phone in EDL mode i think?) i was able to flash my phone back to "atom_images_V12.0.6.0.QJHCNXM_20201217.0000.00_10.0_cn_ac1b4a7af4" (fastboot image) using "SP_Flash_Tool_v5.2112_Win"
- Turn off you phone
- Start the "MTKSecBootDisableV1.0.0R001.ByMofadal" tool.
- Click "disable secure boot". It will say "waiting for bootrom usb device..." (after 1min 20 sec it will time out. click the button again)
- Hold volume up and connect your phone to your computer with the USB cable (while it's still off).
- You should see some phone info in the screen and at the bottom it says:
MTK Secure Boot Bypasss success!
now you can use SP Flash Tool or any MTK Tool
- Open SP_Flash_Tool_v5.2112_Win (flash-tool.exe)
- Download agent should already have "MTK_AllInOne_DA.bin" selected. If not select it from the SP flash tool folder.
- Under scatter-loading file Select the "MT6873_Android_scatter.txt" from "atom_images_V12.0.6.0.QJHCNXM_20201217.0000.00_10.0_cn\images" (i assume you have already downloaded and unpacked the files).
- Click download and let it flash.
BTW i did it this way because my phone didnt boot anymore at all. Not even into recovery or fastboot. Maybe there is another way to downgrade (but it's probably also hard because of the anti rollback protection)
So this method works (just tested it again on my phone now that it's working normally again) but might not be the easiest.

Tks a lot for reply. But my phone is Miui 12 Android 11 with boot ok and entry in recovery and fastboot (i gues). Miuitool should work with bootloader unlocked to rollback android 10 v12.0.6.0.QJHCNXM right?​

You can try. I think i got the anti rollback error when i tried that.
The method i described above works even if you pretty much mess up your phone completely, so it's a nice backup plan.

Ok I will try to follow your steps. I just have to see for where to go because i dont find The tool Hsnmastoor linked and for me i will study how prepare de pc to do this...but thanks a lot for all explanation about this. I dont known what is EDL mode rs (is the same thing about fastboot ? lol)

The link above also didnt work for me, but if you google MTKSecBootDisableV1.0.0R001.ByMofadal you will find other sites that host the file like: https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=318638&sort_by=date&sort_dir=DESC
Same goes for SP_Flash_Tool_v5.2112_Win. Just google the name like that and you will find links.
Also "EDL stands for Emergency Download Mode, and it's an alternative boot-mode on all Qualcomm devices, existing even lower than the standard bootloader." So its way more basic than fastboot.

Tks for answers. Already read and really not so dificult with your guide lol. i wait 160 hours to unblock bootloader and finally try this... next week apear here to talk about this adventure. Tks a lot

There are methods/tools available to unlock bootloader without waiting. I never tried it because i also had time to wait the week.
Also i assume you can enter EDL mode and flash with the bootloader still locked. But not totally sure about this.

Hi, i did oficial upgrade to miui 12.5 and google apps work well without problems, without block. google play, play services, gboard, youtube, chrome works fine. essencial google apps already comes natively.

"comes natively"? Do you mean the ROM already has google apps installed?
Which ROM did you flash? You say upgrade, but you wanted to downgrade to android 10 again right?

yes first i wanted downgrade but my friend did update without problems. So after downgrade i upgrade official to miui 12.06, after 12.07 after 12.02 (Android 11) and finally show me the update to 12.5.2 and i upgrade. About gapps natively i see a video where a guy show that comes essencial google services

So 12.5.2 is android 11 but Google apps work for you? How did you install the Google apps? Can you link to the video?

yes in my case i already had google apps of version 12.0.2 (but without funcionallity), and when i upgrade to 12.5.2 the gapps works all. I dont known if i can post link of video here, but is here we go (in the case the user did a manual update, he explain in the video how to) Manually Update Redmi 10X / 10X Pro 5G to MIUI V12.5 Stable Rom (NO NEED FLASH) | For users: V12.0.2

Endless bootloop (Redmi 9 lancelot)

I tried installing crDroid (unlock bootloader, uploaded FW, recovery SHRP, then install ROM) and after reboot the phone would go back to recovery.
By mistake I "installed" SHRP from ZIP package (I thought I need to install latest recovery file to install ROM with android 12) and phone went into reboot loop, I can't do anything, any key combination doesn't help - I can't even turn it off.
help!

I opened the phone, disconnected the battery, but nothing happened - still bootloop
I'm planning to use SP Flash Tool
Immediately after connecting USB C, the phone boots into bootlop (after disconnecting and reconnecting the battery)

What happens when you flash the custom ROM?
Try to flash the stock firmware and miui
again. Download the latest miui recovery ROM for Lancelot and copy it to the sd card. If you can still boot into recovery you can connect the phone with a PC.
You can also try to reboot into bootloader if the reboot options work from sharp, if not connect the phone to a PC with adb and fastboot installed on it and type:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
And now if you are in fastboot you can do anything, you can try to reflash the firmware, recovery etc.
I personally don't use SHRP, it was really buggy and not great. I use the twrp from this link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/recovery-twrp-unofficial-twrp-recovery-3-6-1_11-0.4421301/.
Thanks for reading and I hope u succeed,
Bye.

U can also try to flash it with MI flash tool.

Operation completed with status [ ]. It looks like there should be a * in the middle and then it would be a sign to me that the ROM is loaded.

At the time of writing, no key combination was working - I can't get into Fastboot or Recovery. I let the battery run out for that moment.

That's what I'll do first, then move on to the solution below.
I opened the phone and disconnected the battery, but plugging in the USB cable immediately turns the phone on and bootloops again.
I'm using Linux and Windows, and one user hinted at hacking the USB driver so I believe it won't boot the phone, only then will I have communication? Other than that I don't know how to do it anyway.
For now, after the phone's battery runs out, I'll try with this solution

I got to the point of connecting the phone to the computer and it connects (the procedure says to use the Power button, but I had to disconnect the battery because Bootloop was falling in), using the Vol- button - the phone keeps connecting and disconnecting....

For a while I tried to connect the phone via SP Flash under Linux - in administrator mode the message "memory protection violation" appears (I don't know how the message is in English).
Adding a udev exception was supposed to help - after lsusb the Mediatek device appeared, I added the exception, restarted - and the same thing happens (the program crashes).

I finally managed (with the help of a group on telegram https://t.me/HelioG85_Unified) by switching off the phone and carefully going through all the points (except the update at the very end) from this link

There is a little problem, because SP Flash must be from the link in this post (because it will not fit DA)

Wow so many posts... Did you manage to fix the phone now? What do you mean by SP Flash will not fit the DA? Did you download the eng ROM for Lancelot? BTW I haven't done this kind of thing, but when I tried to flash my Lancelot with SP Flash tool it didn't work, because it was just waiting for device.

Other versions of SP Flash (newer) other than in the package with ENGROM didn't work with DA file with manual from links given above - it had to be the one from the package. SP Flash showed errors and crashed or informed about wrong file.

I think that if you go through the MTK Bypass process carefully, step by step, you may succeed, as I did.

Great to hear that you fixed the phone, congratulations!

Thanks for the info, but I don't need to flash it with SP Flash tool because that was earlier when I didn't try to install custom recovery. Now I have SHRP with CRDroid A12 and its Awesome.

The battery trick does'nt work for me. I can't remember exact version, sorry - but my way was going BACK with SP Flash tool version (from newest to working with file). When I found right version the rest was only going with procedure.
I did it twice: first time I was scared, second - with finding right version of SPFT, every time - like walk in the park. Looong walk all procedure was like 2-3 hours.
Second one try was after trying to load Andorid 13 (2x). Don't do it kids!
After all, my Revolut app stop working lately on my phone and Redmi is retired for now... (and also becoming unusable because slowing dramatically)

Thanks for your answer. it has worked with battery empty (though that might not have benn necessary); not on 1st atttempt v5.2020 but it did with version 5v.2216 in case it might help someone...it didnt flash miui fastboot rom 12.5 but it did flash engineering rom. and from there i will twrp and miui.
Thanks for your suggestion of trying different spflash versions.

Question REDMI NOTE 10S (Your system has been destroyed+ locked bootloader) error

I have redmi note 10s. I bacame bored of miui because of several bugs. So i decided to mod the device with a nice custom rom. I started the process. Because it is a mtk device, it has complicated flashing process than snapdragon devices. I entered the fastbootD mode and cleared the system by using adb command(which i dont remember). Then i flashed the custom rom. By mistake, I locked the bootloader by typing adb command fastboot oem lock. But now due to complicated case, the device is showing your system has been destroyed and when i try to force reboot it into fastboot, it still give systen destroyed error(means fastboot mode is inaccessible). Can anyone please help me to fix this issue without using edl pins? I am in a great issue

I cant go to service center as my device is out of warranty

in google there is a pc program than can unlock bootloader of mediatek devices, search for it

Bro i cant access the bootloader, so unlocking it doesnt make any difference

I want to restore the bootloader.

Okay so first of all download "mtk client"
Than open the mtk client
It will give you instructions on how to connect your phone, take back of everything except system(super),vendor and userdata. Tap on flash tab there you'll notice a option called unblock bootloader tap on it and your bootloader will be unlocked

Bro Will this restore my bootloader or only unlock it because if it only unlocks then your help wont work.

You need to see the PM I've sent to you. You will find it here.

Start from BROM mode - that is always available. Then you can use mtktool to restore everything. I have an article about it on my blog, but I am not supposed to post it here... find it in my profile, or send me a PM for help.
