Really? Your filehosting process involves your clients having to run a not-further-justified.exe... to access your http download?
I'm sure there's a perfectly reasonable explanation
but until then

Well my antivirus detected their .exe as trojan, when I asked them about it, they said it is because software use encryption.
The TIM (Europe IT/Italy) firmware K350n10e_00_0217.kdz for k350n is a little faulty. Once its flashed and phone is set up (google account and lg stuff) the home screen is not working (flashing or just blank) but if you have a backup (in lg backup) of your former homescreen and you can get into settings then you can restore your earlier homescreen and everything will be just fine.
Keep in mind that it's the febr.01. security patch so it can't be rooted. However the bloatware and the useless apps can be removed (with a lot of patience - it takes like an hour or so).

As its in the title... stock. MM6.0. Basically there is no difference in these roms but the boot animation in some cases and some custom apps. Maybe the newer builds contain some fixes in the firmware but im not sure. However i tend to use the newest one always.
And how to flash this kdz's? LG Flash tool won't flash it.

and which rooting method is working for this firmware for such noob as I (not very hard to install, if there is so one)
(or may be there is method to restore to firmware without february patch and root without reinstalling firmware?
I have k350n as yours, so if can please help, maybe there is backup that can be restored throught twrp?

For "such noob" as you are i suggest to read the threads so you may have some knowledge of what you are about to do just as most of us does. Thats why there are the threads separeted for each step very well described so we dont need to tell everyone what to do... if you have some questions after reading the related threads you can ask me in pm and ill gladly answer.
found this site was easy to use and no ads or what not. imma new guy here so no link but its opensource.lge com. ill most likely be sticking around and learning this crap since the first android I by in years is the us375 and is a pain to try to root...

The bootloader can't be unlock at the moment. Asus is known for giving the tools to unlock the bootloader. So its matter of time to have the tools to unlock it.
Asus just released the unlock tool for the ZenFone 3 so the tool for the Deluxe can't be far off. Maybe this tool will work for the Deluxe??

Hey there I posted this under "rooted":
Hey, just went onto ASUS global & US website and saw that there is an unlock bootloader utility for the ZS550KL (updated 11-Nov-2016) but not one for the ZS570KL. Does this matter, since both phones are "Deluxe"? If not, any assistance to unlock bootloader and root the ZS570KL. Thanks!
Any help or feedback, greatly appreciated.

Fairly new to rooting phones and this question is due to my inexperience, but if the phones are both considered "Zenfone 3 Deluxe" what does the size have to do with it? Thanks for explaining.

well according to the this link here ... https://www.asus.com/Phone/ZenFone-3-Deluxe-ZS570KL/HelpDesk_Download/ (This is for 5.7 and there is no show of bootloader)
however this link here https://www.asus.com/Phone/ZenFone-3-Deluxe-ZS550KL/HelpDesk_Download/ (shows a bootloader unlock for the 5.5 version)
We need developers to jump on this darn phone and get it going somehow, if there is anyway possible to get their attention on it. I was able to tweak my phone a bit more with the startup manger (free) from google play to get more ram space.

5.5 has SD820 cpu, 5.7 has SD821... Would you try and use the other, untried method of unlocking if it may destroy your expensive little toy?

This is untrue. The 5.5 has the SD625, and the 64GB 5.7 has the SD820 and the 256GB 5.7" Special Edition has the SD821.
While it could be possible that a bootloader unlock tool for the SD820 could be used on the SD821 (but maybe not) because the architecture is essentially the same, an unlock tool for the SD625 most certainly would not be as it is a completely different processor.
I know we seen this answer before, but this is what i got from them.... https://www.asus.com/zentalk/thread-120584-1-1.html
I emailed Asus support and got this as a response:
Me: "When can the bootloader unlock utility be expected to be released?"
Them: "Unfortunately ASUS does not actually asssit with unlocking of the Android Bootloader. I must advise that you do so at your own risk, as once the boot loader is unloked it will void your warranty. But we will transfer customers' wishes to the related department for further development."
Edit: I prodded them further and received this in response:
"I have transferred your wish to our Product department, but temporary the accurate time the unlock tool for this Zenfone 3 Deluxe model would be released couldn't be ensured."
Which I believe means: 'We can't give an official release time yet.'
There is a "petition" in Asus 's Taiwan forum requesting an official bootloader unlocked tool and the thread is marked "under active review" by representative of Asus. No ETA is given though and the thread is in Chinese. If you are also interested and want to give it a little more push you could leave English message there.

Hey, thanks for the explanation. I did not even consider looking at the specs (chipset) to see if there was a difference between the 2 models. I just thought they were the same phone just size of screen difference and/or less storage. Forgot they also release a 820 model.
At least you can get to the heart of the menu of the recovery, just can't do much there either. Thanks to a lucky source right here.... been trying find out how to do this...
https://www.asus.com/zentalk/thread-120913-1-1.html
1.) Turn off phone completely
2.) press power button and volume down at same time and hold it untill you see an android logo with an "!" with the android logo that says "no command". when you see the logo release all buttons.
3.) Now, press and hold power button first and then quickly press volume Up. You will then see the options including wipe cache.

Lenovo p2 successful UNBRIKED!

I recently bricked my Lenovo p2 Indian unit. This happened because i accidentally wiped the Internal storage erasing the firmware. Luckily I found this You Tube video which helped me to recover my phone.
PS : I had TWRP installed and root access.
However​ you will be brought back to the Marshmallow version and you will receive ota update.
If this is article is already available an XDA remove it. You must have adb.
I am unable to post the link to the video because im new. So search for 'lenovo p2 Bootloop texplicit' . If you still don't find the video Search the video in the channel Texplicit.
PS: it's not my channel.

Downgrading from Android 10 to 9 locked bl

I am stuck at the latest version of android 10 (.618) on my xperia xz2 compact H8314 and I have a big problem using whatsapp and other messaging apps like messenger and telegram, basically the voice notes sounds very low, I can record audio using sony audio recorder and works fine but the other apps dont, I have been looking for this thread all over the xz2 forum but could not find it so thats why I decided to create it, I have also looked in other webpages but it seems that are very few mentions of it, I found this one and tried to follow it, but I failed in my attempt.
https:// xperiafirmware. com/downgrade/
Any help/advise is welcome and even questions of what I have already tried.
I thought about any other alternatives like fixing the problem in Android 10 but I couldnt either.
Edit: I get the next error message when I am flashing the .ftf file that I downloaded there:
"Those data are not in the FSC scrip and will be skipped:
BOOT,DSP,FSG,MODEMST1,MODEMST2,RDIMAGE.
Do you want to continue?"
then I try to turn on my phone and get the message "your phone is corrupt and it wont start" or something like that.
I have owned several xperia phones in the past, the last one was xperia X compact and I remember (I could be wrong) that I was able to make a downgrade without unlocking my bootloader.
I succesfully downgraded from 10 to 9 using sonys flashtool with bootloader unlocked. But I'm not sure if it's possible to do it without unlocking at the moment. Why not just unlock the bootloader?

Would be helpful if:
Where to get the Sony flashtool. (link?)
You could provide a link to how to unlock the bootloader. and
You could describe the "Downside" to unlocking the bootloader. What "no longer works"? Such as, will it no longer apply factory updates? Will Digital Rights Management (DRM) no longer work?
Seriously, my XZ2 Compact H8214 keeps reminding me (several times a day) that a firmware update is available, and I am sort of "scared to death" to do it. All I read are negative comments about what Android 10 has done to ruin people's phone. Without a way to "go back", I am seriously thinking of just ignoring these messages for weeks and weeks.

Well first of all, unlocking bootloader voids warranty, then a number of several sony technologies will for sure stop working, Basically all proprietary technologies like audio, video and most importan thing, CAMERA enhancements, how I do know this? well because I have been reading a lot lately and also since some years ago, and by experience because back in the day I had an xperia x compact and I didnt remember to backup DRM keys before unlocking bootloader.
Anyway I have found a way to downgrade from android 10 to 9 without unlocking the bootloader, I am not sure about if I should make a new post with specific instructions( a guide) or just write them in this post.
Oh, yes. Please share. The more details the better. (Assuming that people "know basic things" is often incorrect. The things I don't know is FAR too big to list.)

I have downgraded from 10 to 9 using official flashtool from sony (with bootloader unlocked) and my camera, audio, video etc. still works just fine. Maybe I just got lucky, but I think that by doing it through the tool provided by sony itself it shouldn't break anything. Which in my case, it didn't. Btw, thanks for the guide ?

Or maybe you don't know what you do, and happy for the nothing.
If you unlock the bootloader, you loose the TA partition (DRM keys). Your camera quality is worst, and some features lost (ps4 etc).

I just picked up an H8314 for use on Verizon in the US and it has Android 10 already.
@Tom 23 can you explain more about what you did? Details? Are you using an H8314? On Verizon? I've read in the XZ2 forums supposedly now unlocking on Android 10 still breaks some stuff but now not the camera?
@williamgrant can you provide/link a list of exactly what breaks when you unlock the bootloader? Perhaps what breaks depends on what version of Android you're on when you unlock?
I'm trying to determine/weigh the pros and cons of unlocking to root are, if its worth it, what am I giving up...

Do you notice specific problems with the H8314 on Verizon? I have been delaying the Android 10 firmware update because I cannot seem to find many reports of "how it works on Verizon".
I've only been using it for a little over 36 hours, but so far nothing glaringly wrong. Keep in mind thought that 36 hours ago I was using a 2013 Motorola Moto X running Android 5.1... now I'm on Android 10... So there's probably stuff that is a bug that I don't recognize is a bug!
My wife's had her H8314 on Verizon for about 6 months and it's on Android 10 as well. If she's not complained to me about anything then that's good! Then again, she's likely not at the same "level" as XDA forum members are!
I too am interested in how to roll back to Android 9 if it can be accomplished reasonably easily without giving up a bunch of stuff.
I've been plagued with issues on Android 10. Even with the most recent update things have not improved. The two things most annoying to me are the drastically reduced battery life (more than halved!! it doesn't even last a full day anymore!!) and the fact that MMS do not download correctly all the time anymore. I've also noticed that camera quality has gone down somehow, even though Android 10 was supposed to improve it...
Hello folks
I successfully downgraded my XZ2 Compact (H8314) from Android 10 to 9 using that info: "https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=82087435"
but I had a problem, I downloaded (using XPERIAFIRM) 52.0.A.11.32 South Korea version (I'm from Italy, but Italy version is not available) , every thing work fine except LTE (4G) signal, as frequency of two country is not compatible, then I installed Android 10 again and all was ok.
So... now my question is: do you know where I can found 52.0.A.11.32 image customized for Italy?

but I had a problem, I downloaded (using XPERIAFIRM) 52.0.A.11.32 South Korea version (I'm from Italy, but Italy version is not available) , every thing work fine except LTE (4G) signal, as frequency of two country is not compatible, then I installed Android 10 again and all was ok.
So... now my question is: do you know where I can found 52.0.A.11.32 image customized for Italy?
Regards,,,Carlo

Hello. I downloaded some month ago rom for UK via Xperifirm. I deleted already ta-files according to description, and I added newsflasher (version 20) into same folder. I zipped complete prepared folder and uploaded it now. Should be okay for Italy.

Odidad and Lollixo, would love to know if I just follow from Step 4 of this guide if I am using this file Odidad provided? Have you had success flashing Lollixo?

Hi landsome. Probably I still have, but I am on a trip and I can't check this now.
I can do this not before Monday. When I'll find I will upload on Monday...

Question Yet Another Bricked Mi Pad 5 after Global Rom

sigh, yes I am embarrased at what I did but I have bricked my Mi Pad 5 and need a hand. Background:
- new Mi Pad 5 China hardware but with Global ROM flashed by the vendor I bought from
- the Mi Pad started up fine and I logged into my google and Mi accounts with no issues
- noticed the bootloader was unlocked and that google play said device is not certified
- I used fastboot OEM LOCK *very stooooopid* and the device rebooted
- on start up is says "This miui version can't be installed on this device" and now it's bricked
- tried to wipe data but no luck same error
- tried miunlock tool but it tells me I have to bind my id to the device :-(
- tried XiaoMiTool V2 but it is also stuck
- tried Mi pc suite but it will not detect the mi pad
Is there way way to simply recovery back to the latest chinese version of the rom - feels like I am stuck between a rock and a hardplace :-(
Thx in advance for your help, FredT
Download an China fastboot rom from https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/miui-updates-tracker-xiaomi-pad-5-nabu.4328591/
Unpack and use the included installer

thx for the advice, I tried it but anything I do with the included installer tells me it can't work on on a locked device.
still looking for a solution....
You can not unlock again?
oem unlock command
yes unfortunately my stupid error was that I did an OEM LOCK thinking that would be ok and to fix the playstore uncertified issue :-(
when I try to unlock it tells me that I need to bind my ID :-(

Unlock again, install stock china rom, factory reset and lock bootloader
yeah when I try to unlock it now it says that I have to bind my MI id again but I can't boot MIUI to do that - so really stuck as it won't let me unlock
when I try oem unlock I get:
C:\Users\fredp\Downloads\miflash_unlock-en-5.5.224.24>.\fastboot.exe oem unlock
...
FAILED (remote: Token Verify Failed, Reboot the device
)
finished. total time: 0.014s

How did you unlock it in the first place? Maybe use the same method? Mine (pro 5g) came with CN ROM with the bootloader locked, so I had to go through the usual procedure of binding my Mi account and waiting for 7 days to unlock the bootloader. I used Mi Unlock as Xiaomi suggests.
Mine came from the seller with the global rom installed even on the CN hardware so they went through that process which in retrospective was not such a great idea, my mistake was that I did not bind my ID to the device before trying to lock it.
I don't know if you solved your problem, but when this kind of things happened with Xiaomi phones, you needed someone with an authorized Xiaomi account that could log in Xiaomi flasher and unlock your device for you. I remember seeing a guy from Russia who did this procedure for many people over the k20 pro fórum (he charges 20us I think)
Sorry for the kind of generic information but it's been sometime I saw this and can't quite remember the details. Try to search for more info about that in k20 pro fórum.
What I can tell you is that if you find the right person to do it for you it's quite easy and fast. I think he does it over TeamViewer.
Anyway, don't give up. It is totally recoverable
Here bro, this group in telegram can help you
A guy there has an authorized account
Search for {Mod edit}

Thx for your suggestion and moral support
In fact I did reach out to {Mod edit} via telegram and within a few short hours i was unbricked and running on the latest stock China ROM!
Life is good again, maybe after I get my courage again I will try the global ROM again ...although right now I have to wait a few weeks for xiaomi to unlock my bootloader

How was this fixed? I also have the same problem(locking the bootloader after flashing and bricking it).
I tried to reachout to {Mod edit} and already paid for the service fee, and I am feeling that this is a SCAM, i have been waiting for a day and still no progress with this. Im confused if this is really a thing for our bricked units. Hope they were just really busy and not a scam.
{Mod edit: Telegram screenshots removed}
Update on my transaction with {Mod edit}, it is legit! Cant beleive they revived my mi pad 5. This thread is a big help. Thanks!

I understand the reason...
But how can we suggest a solution to people with bricked device if this is the only option available?
