I think they kind of missing something...
i also flash firmwares in spft..
no missing imei, too..
all they have to do is flash using "Firmware upgrade" not download only.. if they use "download only" absolutely they will loose their imei..
Flashing using "Firmware upgrade" option will make your imei intact in your phone.
now if you didnt do that, imei will be gone..all you have to do is manual writing of imei in your phone..there are theads here on how to do that..
hope it helped

Sorry.
Off topic.
I'm in a little problem.
Two problems I've face.
1. After install phoenix rom on my XP I've lost Cwm recovery. How I install Cwm. Is it the same process to install cwm like XP stock rom?
2. I think Gmail has bug. Unfortunately Gmail has stopped. Why? To solve this problem, I've tried many ways what I know.
Plz help me. Thnx.

Bro I have flashed the ROM <10 times and used always download only and their is no imei missing.
The difference between download only means your phone will fully flash.(all partition gets formatted and are flashed again)
But in firmware upgrade phones get upgraded.(No data,cache etc partition get formatted).

1. Yes the process for cwm flashing is same.
BRI I'll advise u to use twrp recovery it is better than cwm.In twrp u can also flash ROM with otg.And many other features.
TWRP link:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=62924875
2. I think you have not done factory reset after flashing the ROM.
If you have already done factory reset than,use root uninstaller or es explorer and uninstall the gmail and the install again from playstore.:good::good:

look at your firmware that is installed, goto settings, about device... baseband version..
then download that firmware... forget about whatsapp, my phone doesn't have it installed, but it is in the firmware, and it doesn't install it..
wipe the phone in recovery, and reboot into downloader mode, and odin flash your firmware, if that doesn't work, ur phone is effed up... have to return it, happened to me, this is my 2nd, I have not rooted this one yet, until I have answers regarding this...
I will be rooting soon, a lot of people have no issues, don't know why... we need more answers, I hear that you should delete the stored fingerprints that are saved, the odin your firmware, it works for some, not for others...
please pm me with your results.

I think it got messed up, don't know how, but this has happened to a lot of people, because of flashing roms, might be something that is hidden in a secured area, and getting damaged somewhere,
when it happened to me, I was on the 1st firmware, then I did everything I could, then I updated the firmware to the new one, and that did not fix it either...
I think it messed up... I don't think it be fixed unless Samsung does something to it... I have been reading all the note 4 threads before I root this 2nd phone, Verizon, sprint, tmobile, and att threads to see what is going on...

Mi 5 ROM 7.2.4.0 Global Multi LEAK [Link+Tuto]

This is for advanced user only.
Root not included but Google services yes. This is a stock ROM, with 50 langages included.
If you don't know what are adb command, root, TWRP, don't follow this guide.
Don't blame me if you brick your phone, kill your cat or burn your house.
For UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER ONLY
To install the rom, extact the system.img and boot.img from the rar/zip in the same folder than adb.exe and fastboot.exe.
Then, reboot your phone in fastboot mode with volume down+power.
Plug in to your PC, open and cmd prompt (maintain left shift on the keyboard, right click in the adb/img folder with the mouse and select open cmd prompt here) and write :
fastboot flash system system.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Wait 15min.....then:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Flash TWRP with fastboot....
(fastboot flash recovery recoveryfilename.img)
Make a data/cache wipe in TWRP recovery
When it's done, press power for ~10sec to reboot your phone.
Wait.....(15-30min)
Set up the phone in English, and don't set your Google account immediately.
Once the setup wizard is done,
Do whatever you want.
You can also try to flash the ROM with MiFlash. I didn't tried but it should work, and will be more easier for new users.
If you wanna install root :
Flash SuperSU (last version) in TWRP.
If you can't access your sdcard, wipe the internal storage (sdcard), reboot to TWRP and wipe it again. Then, reboot... Wait... Setup your phone again. Reboot to TWRP and flash SuperSU.
Your phone got now decrypted data partition to allow TWRP flashing files.

Just a heads up if this ROM pack has Mi App Store in it it can't be posted on the site/in the forums.

No Mi app store in this rom, however, there's some nasty bloatware on it. I don't know which one, but after using it for some time, when the screen idle for a long time (I updated a game data), there's this huge fullscreen popup with ads on it.

Most of the bloatware on these ROMs can be removed. Were you able to uninstall them?
Sent from my MI 5 using XDA-Developers mobile app
There is nothing more than a official dev ROM.
I don't have any pop-up after a long idle time.
Not sure it came from system app, check your installed app please.
If you suspect something running in the background, just delete it from system/app manually or with titanium backup.
unfortunately, I haven't unlocked my bootloader so I don't have root. The rom already loaded on my phone when I bought it. Don't know if the bloatware are from the rom or someone else installed it into phone.
:-/, good luck guy. Since I don't have this problem with this ROM, I suppose someone added a bloatware on your phone before selling it.
You can install the dev ROM by the official way, your phone will be in English but you will got a clean install with root.
This is NO official Xiaomi ROM, it is a Custom-ROM.

People should stop advising this as it's not true. You need an unlocked bootloader or already obtained permission in order to get root.
If you haven't yet, you get a message in the root section of the security app telling you you need to unlock the bootloader.

If it comes with bloatware and needs TWRP then this looks like a scam to me. And not like an official firmware
Specially, the link to the dropbox is fishy! If the "official-global firmware" exists it's on the bigota sever of Xiaomi and all you need is the direct link, it's well hidden, but possible to find with a direct link.

This is a leak of the ROM who was used for the MWC 2016.
Remember photos and videos of the event, the mi5 was multilingual. This is why the ROM is old and can't be found on miui.com...v 7.2.4.0

No bloatware at all on the ROM. Try and you will see. This guy have the ROM preinstalled by the seller, who probably putted some crap inside.
By the way, read the tutorial again. I said you can flash it with MiFlash too like any official ROM.

As said before! If it is leaked it's on bigota and accessible by the filename.
Until you can provide the link to the official XIaomi server, at least I won't risk it.
A custom ROM from an unknown source without any background information, and very little benefit isn't worth it.

It's not about being paranoid!
This could also be a custom ROM from one of the Chinese scam resellers or worse.
And it's simple if it's official, it's on bigota.d.miui.com

The only problem I see with your topic is the official part.
You can only assume it is official, but you have no proof, no official link to the location of the file on bigota. So you do not know if it's official, knowledge you could prove. Where "I believe in bla..." doesn't require a proof.
Ok i will change the topic name.
So.
I was rdy to give it a try.
It's a little de-bloated not much, but it helps to delete not 2000 Chinese Apps ( i am German)
The Version on this Shows me 7.2.4.0.0, why?
Maybe that we don't get any ota notifications or something like that?
So far it's the smoothest Rom, compared to latest Dev ( Lags for me whyever) , also to 7.2.8.
Gplay Apps are running much smoother then a manual install, don't find any background Apps which calling home or smth.
Also the battery life is for me on that awesome.
Dev -> Max 6 1/2 h SOT
7.2.8 -> Max 6 h SOT
This beauty -> 7 3/4 h SOT
Thanks for this work.

Hybrid SIM (2 SIM + SD card) not working... :)

Hi everyone!
Today I got the new system update for my Galaxy S9 DUOS (SM-G960F)... Long story short, I was using my DIY SD card + SIM before, and it was working perfectly, but after this update, looks like that our friends from SAMSUNG don't like this "hybrid" stuff on their devices
To me it's not a problem to use only 2 normal SIM cards, w/o the SD card too, but I got used to it, so I needed to get rid of the 'hybrid', go to my carrier branch, and request from them to issue me a new SIM card...
So guys, If you are using this 2 SIM + SD card ("all-in-one"), make sure that you don't update your phone, or otherwise you will loose the "DIY" stuff (to call it like that).

Same problem here
Dual SIM + SD error after last upgrade
Hi guys,
Same problem here. I had to took off the 2nd SIM card+MicroSD for the phone to work...
But I need my second phone number and the microSD !!!
Please let me know if there is any solution and I'll post here if I find one!
I think the solution must be a software upgrade that would fix this bug...

Well, seems like that we cannot do that much... I think that there must be some "fix" for this, but root will be required, which in my case I don't want to root my Galaxy.

Same problem here - and I just bought the phone to replace my S7. I've put the card combo in first - all ok - then updated the system... Now I'm downloading an older firmware from sammobile and maybe I'll be able to downgrade. I'll keep my fingers crossed waiting for the download (yes, the slow one) to finish....
The only way is to downgrade it to the previous firmware.

Correct, this worked. But of course a more satisfying solution would be more than welcome.

Hi. First you download Odin. Then you download the firmware G960FXXS1BRF3 from www.sammobile.com and use Odin to flash your phone. Afterwards the status will read "custom" but Google Pay still works so it's not really rooted. Google for ways to flash your phone and you'll find detailed explanations. It did work for me so that I can put the 2 sims and an sd card in but I'm stuck with older than the most recent firmware. For the moment I hope.
Hope this helps a bit. Wishing you best of luck in reverting to the previous firmware.
Cheers!

custom sign in google play should only come when u unlock phone then downgrade or upgrade. tried on locked bootloader on s7 and s8 and never had this problem. your either tripped knox or did something else for sure.

I did that on s7 a few days ago and nothing got tripped and the status stayed official. Did on S9 now and Knox is not tripped but "custom" is there in the device status. I can still use Google Pay so I'm guessing Knox is not tripped. The only things I did on the S9 was to switch on developers options, change the USB debugging option and flashed the firmware with Odin. That is absolutely it.
If you download to the previous firmware (June) will it stop OTA upgrades in the future? Also will Samsung Pay still work?
Any solution found to this problem of two SIMS and a micro USB other than downgrading?

honestly if it wouldn't change anything and it wouldn't lose the warranty I will just downgrade.

Installing official signed firmware should never trip KNOX. KNOX only trips when an unsigned ROM is flashed.
Yes, theoretically it is correct, but we need a certitude in order to start downgrade from BRF8 to BRF3, downgrading from one official firmware to another it will change status phone from Official to Custom ?
In my case, latest BRF8 (that firmware with infamous limitation), and in order to use again both sim and sd card I'm tempted to proceed to downgrate at BRF3, I have CSC ROM (multi CSC), flashing with Odin will preserve CSC as it is right now, or it will change it ?

Flashing the Original Samsung ROM (older Version) wont change the status of the firmware to CUSTOM. It will work fine...
So, in brief, feel free to downgrade

No crashes or malfunctions after downgrade ? Did you proceed with or without hard reset ?
What is you'r CSC, if you can tell !
You are now on BRF3 or lower ?

LG V35 - LGUP - Error: 0x7004, AB Update Boot Change Fail / Stuck In Firmware Update

So this happened, and I have no idea what to do.
Google search on this specific error shows nothing, like I am the first to have it or something.
Could it be that is because my phone is encrypted?
Also sorry if I have posted this in the wrong sub forum
Cant't seem to find the delete option.
- V350ULM20d_00_NAO_US_OP_0612.kdz
- Patched / Moded V35 LGUP
- Upgrade Option
- ATT Unlocked Model Running Android 8.0
( Not sure what KDZ I was on, I should have checked before hand )
Any help would be appreciated

I have only done the "Upgrade" Option, nothing else, trying to dump anything gives me "0x2000 Write Protected lun" Error, could be because of the encryption.
I have just tried doing Partition DL on "boot_ a/b" and "sid_a/b"
Followed by the upgrade option, result is the same, the last thing it seems to try flashing is "sid_a" then it gives me the 7004 error
I have accidentally flashed/partition DL on user files.
I am guessing that wiped everything on there didn't it :|

Well there goes my whatsapp history, I really should stop messing with it when I am tired late at night after coming back from a long trip.
I have tried multiple different ones,
The one from https://www.lanzous.com/i3y5ocd does not seem to work for me, it gives me an invalid mismatched DLL type of error
The one I am using I can't remember where I got it but will post once I get a chance to look it up again
Would doing the refurbished option be any good?

In the LGUP zip file there is an LGUPD and an LGUPE exe. Correct? Which of those two did you use? Also I think refurbish would be the best option. At this point.
---------- Post added at 03:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:54 PM ----------
The upgrade option wouldn't work because of the firmware incompatibilities. You could only use upgrade going from same firmware family. Like Google Fi 8.0 to Google Fi 9.0. or Amazon 8.0---> 9.0 etc.

I also died totally dead bro, it's also only when connected to the PC still detected bro, like entering EDL mode, bro, I already got the application to flash, just lacking files, so it can't be flashed bro
---------- Post added at 01:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:55 PM ----------
it seems to go into edl mode bro and you can flash it using the SP FLASH TOOL application bro specifically for mediatek bro but lacking material in file authentication has only reno 8 pro bro because I've tried the application bro there are only files that I don't mean so that's why the flashing failed Bro, I'm now looking for a developer to create the file, bro ??
even with the files you wont be able to flash it,i found an auth file in the forums but it didnt work [everytime you try to flash it ,it will drop an brom cmd fail error witch is supposed to be that the device started to try power on and got interrupted (but on the store they said thats probably because the auth is wrong) ] anyhow...
i've send it to a store for checkup i dont know if they will be able to fix it
in case i learn something ill post it here.. if anyone has experience on the subject please enlighten us
I have also downloaded the file authentication from the forum, also the same did not work to flash most likely the file is indeed incompatible with Reno 8 Pro / MT6785 bro, so there must be a developer who created the file bro, because the HP Reno 8 Pro is just coming out so there is no dev who stopped by on xda to develop this reno 8 pro, also if for hardware damage it might not be possible bro because I have had that happen with my previous xiaomi cellphone bro, and it entered into edl mode bro except when the cellphone was connected to the pc then it didn't detected it is most likely indeed the hardware is damaged bro
Bootloop fix
It happened to me when trying to flash twrp and magisk. Twrp was ok, but magisk bricked it. I entered fastboot and reflashed stock boot.img (this seemed to fix the problem), stock recovery.img and system.img - I got the image files from the internet somewhere, I just had to extract them from the zip with the CN ROM. Good luck!
