Question...
Can I install MIUI Rom this way?
1) I don't root phone. I leave it as it is.
2) I do this "Backup your current ROM (Create ROM dump with SP FlashTool)" from codelover thread to back up my rom.
3) I unlock my bootloader using your this guide "Unlocking Bootloader (For International aka MY/TW set ONLY)" .
4) I download "H30-U10_LiveRecovery_TWRP.zip" and extract it to my computer.
5) Then I do this "Running Live Recovery: Use TWRP without flashing the recovery to device" .
5a) I create "Backup" using TWRP.
5b) I go on "Wipe" menu in "TWRP" and do factory reset one time.
5c) I come back on main menu of TWRP.
6) I click "Install" and navigate to my MIUI.zip and touch it to install.
7) After Miui.zip installation complete, I come back to main menu of "TWRP" then go in "Advance>File Manager>sdcard/dload and delete 'au_temp.cfg' ".
8) And at last I reboot and enjoy MIUI.
Is this correct? Plz reply soon..

One big issue, after instralling MIUI, there is caller ID mismatch, If i saved cell no with +92XXXXXXXXX, Then it will not recognize it on caller ID, And if I save number by 0XXXXXXXXXX, it will not show ID on receiving SMS
Kindly provide any way to fix it
Second No motion controll
Third no signs of 2G or 3G over signal bars

BND-L24 Unbrick And restore Honor 7x USA

Ok guys bare with me. This is my first Thread. So it may look a little different then the others :laugh:
At least Your honor 7x will no longer be a paper weight
I posted last week that I do Indeed have a good TWRP Honor 7x BND-L24 USA Variant. Since then I have been getting hammered with requests for it. So being the great guy that I am, I have come to the rescue. NO MORE PAPER WEIGHT :laugh: I have also included TWRP 3.1.1. You will Find Direct download links below.
I have heard that Huawei will be releasing the firmware by end of next week. Go to play store and download Huawei Firmware
Finder(FF) To keep checking for it. Once there you can download it through Huawei FF.
When I did the backup TWRP gave me error 255 with the data.img but it did still back it up. I have the boot.img, system.img and data.img. data.img (data.img untested but should work)
If it does not I have a post here https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=75735265#post75735265 that explains how to use just the boot.img and system.img to recover your phone. IGNORE that it is for the 6x. It does indeed work with the 7x
If your phone is bricked and do not have twrp
1.Turn off phone
2. hold volume down while plugging in usb cable from your pc or laptop. That will put you in fastboot.
Tutorial here https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-root-honor-7x/ on how to download and install ADB tools.
3.. Download TWRP 3.1.1 for honor 7x here https://drive.google.com/open?id=1dzP5ie7vQEn_dGfZHI383bt2sFxwtcTb
For people with TWRP installed
1. Download My TWRP backup here https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Udc4thELESZ4n_nXYmx6loQtTkjHOqSy
2. Extract the zip file to your ext, sdcard.
3. Boot phone into twrp.(Bricked phones hold volume up and press power to launch twrp assuming it is installed.
4. Select restore in twrp menu then choose sd card then the backup folder.
5. Flash the boot system and data img files
6 Reboot.
NO more paper weight :good:
Oh if anyone has twrp 3.2x that works with this with 7x BND-L24 do share please
Well hope this was not to bad :laugh:
Hit that thanks button. Yea that one under my post on the right :laugh:
Hope this has helped

Thank you

No problem. Least I can do. This site has helped me out a lot
Paper weights suck :laugh:

Didn't work. I got to the "booting now" screen and was stuck there forever. I had to restore my old System and Boot partitions to get back to normal.

Didn't Work for me. goes tot the erecovery page.

Is this the only know method to get back to stock. i tried to uninstalled exposed and somehow eneded up stuck in the erecovery boot loop? very lost any help would be greatly appreciated.

Didn't work, on BND-L34 which is the same model as BND-L24 and it says your device is booting now and never boots.

sad days. do you happen to know of any other alternatives? should i made a backup in TWRP before i rooted and did anything?

This does not work. Restoring data leads to error 255 and restoring just boot and system leads to an unbootable system. Also, the link provided does not help one bit. Can you please try to explain here? Thanks.

As long as you flash the boot.img first it will wok I tested it myself on my wifes and daughters phone and it worked Perfectly. i did not go into detail to do it correctly because there are tutorial's on here that explain how to flash those files

i have an idea, maybe you can make a backup not just including the system, data, and boot but other stuff. Because I accidentally wiped everything, and I changed the vender to a10/tl10, and that bricked the phone even more. And the data img doesn't work. You can fix it with this https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/help/error-255-twrp-t3739468. If someone has a working bnd-l24 or bnd-l34 can you give me everything in the backup?

So you first do that then you do the rest?

Tried again. Getting the 255 error when flashing the Data

Yeah, error 255 is boot looping me too.

You were able to get it to work?

I want to get behind and support this, so much, .But the OP is not registered user, so cant even verify their reputation.
I am late to this device and thread, but my phone will arrive tmw.
I would like to know if this is the only current available restore method for BND-L24?

SOLVED:Stuck at PIN input, then reboots

Well, I f*cked up.
Fastboot works, I can flash stock rom via Xiaomi Flash. Flashing completes without any problems. A notification about encypting phone shows up, at 3% it jumps to 100% and resumes boot. Now after each boot, phone freezes at "input your sim pin" and reboots. Over and over again. What can I try, please help :

Try to format data in twrp or stock recovery.
If it does not work flash an android 8.0 or Nougat ROM. Do not lock the bootloader.

Let me guess. From Pie to Oreo or Nougat?

will give it a read, it it works, I'll PM you and you'll give me your paypal address. Fair is fair.
can't unlock OEM, because I can't boot up to developer tools. great, just great. will try to fix that first.

if you can boot to fastboot try to flash stock pie 10.0.4.0 with miflash, after that your device should be able to boot, than unlock OEM and bootloader and downgrade to what version you want

I can get to fastboot yeah, but MiFlash tool says that remote oem unlock is not allowed. So I'll probably have to open it up for EDL. Reboot to edl isn't working. Thanks for the advice tho.

i had a problem like yours, but i have flashed stock rom in non EDL mode and everything had start to work apart LTE band missing that i restored with qualcomm's tools
which stock rom have you try to flash? are you downgrading from oreo? bootloop on android one logo after downgrading is a common issue due to ARB (anti rollback protection)

you don't understand.
There are no winners and no loosers.
You are free to donate to anyone you want, but your post boost and encourages a bad attitude.
If people start to solve only paid problems, the spirit of the community will be destroyed.

The problem is with the Pie specific partition table
I write the whole guide from memory, so it can differ a bit.... I skipped some steps ( erasing, reboot, fastboot mode, TWRP loading via fastboot, OEM unlock )
From previous writings I think you can know the skipped steps.
Keep in mind: It is dangerous, you can loose your IMEI ( it will only work again with Pie - or there are some writings at forum how can you manually change it. ).
Steps:
1 - Backup with TWRP (fastboot) efs,persist,modem & make copy to your computer and or to your cloud provider.
2 - Create a new folder in Internal Storage -> TWRP -> BACKUP -> With a new date directory ( the backup already made one, make a new folder, with different date )
3 - Download someone's older TWRP backup from xda (I cheated, I copied the following links ) :
(I'm still a new user, so can't directly write url's )
Mediafire : https COLON SLASH SLASH bit.ly SLASH 2QU5NtC
Mirror: Google Drive : https COLON SLASH SLASH bit.ly SLASH 2UN1DTo
4 - Unpack, and copy EFS to the folder created 2 point
5 - Fastboot TWRP -> Restore EFS
6 - Flash the Official latest firmware from en.miui.com ( If you want to make sure go with EDL mode )
7 - Now, the IMEI & Mac addresses are missing. Don't panic! Download update with System Updates.
8 - When you are on Pie again, restore your first TWRP (fastboot) persist partition
9 - One more System restore
At this time, you will have IMEI & Mac addressees, and hopefully a working phone.
Hope this helps. The same thing happened with me 2 weeks ago. This is how I solves it.

Thank you, I solved it yesterday. Hopefully this post will come in handy for other people!

find device storage corrupted your device is unsafe now

hey guys i recently flashed pixel experience on my redmi k20 but i decided to revert back to stock so i flashed latest stable version through mi flash but now i am getting "find device storage corrupted your device is unsafe now" notifications did i messed something up? and i had an unlocked bootloader but now i cant unlock it. the error i get is "you should wait until 30 days before you can unlock another device"

once you've unlocked the bootloader, you can unlock it anytime again and as often as you want. have tested this several times, just once again with the same mi account unblock - without waiting.
how did you leave MIUI installed with MIflash and lock down on the bottom right?

You somehow corrupted your persist partition. When you are able to unlock again, you can fix that by flashing persist.img from fastboot image to persist partition via TWRP. You can't flash that via fastboot, that will not work. Be aware that you will loose Widevine L1 forever on MIUI (should still work on custom roms) unless you have a backup of your persist partition you can restore.

That's why I asked about IMEI, Bluetooth and sensors. But before you flash, try this one again and report.
Of course, twrp must be installed.
did you create a new account?
do you have less than 30 days wait now?
did you have a foreign backup fash before?
is the IMEI the same number as on the packaging?

How to backup the AT&T stock rom?

I'm going over this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v35/development/bootloader-unlock-root-instruction-t4052145 and at some point it reads:
There are a couple warnings. The first is that AT&T does not release flashable roms. There is no going back unless of course you take the time to make a backup of the rom itself.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I'm new to LG Android and don't know exactly what is considered a twrp-less rom backup here. Is it the "partition extraction" the same guide goes on to describe? If not, can someone please tell me how to do it or point me in the right direction?

It is pretty straightforward:
1. Install and configure QPST and QFIL as per the guide on your PC.
2. Plugin your phone and enter 9008 as per guide.
3. Dump your partitions using QFIL (you will need about 60 GB of free space)

Thanks vlad48!

That's a lot of space! To backup the rom do I really need to back up all of the partitions? Seems like that is including userdata or otherwise more than just the rom :S

Nah, I just went ahead and got rid of the AT&T rom. Haven't needed it and don't miss it.

A word of caution for others, even if you do backup with QFIL, it is hit and miss and flashing partitions from QFil backup can give you errors. Sometimes changing .bin extension of the partition data to .img can help but in my experience most times even after successful flash you may not be able to boot successfully from either slot. I couldn't recover to AT&T Android 10 from my backup and had to flash Korean Android 10 because once you go up to Android 10, you can't downgrade to Pie or Oreo.
