BIG ISSUE! Locked out of phone!! Need to enable tasker via flashable zip - General Questions and Answers

Well crap... I accidentally locked myself out of my phone, pin isn't being recognized as correct....
I either disabled tasker and forgot (which will unlock my phone) or something else happened.
Is there ANY way to enable tasker through a flashable zip? Or anything as equally easy to do through recovery (TWRP)?

Factory reset in TWRP should do the trick .

You can try deleting tasker altogether from TWRP's file manager.

Tried that as well... No good. Oh well looks like its fresh from install time

Just in case you are messing around and you mess something up!
The mirror seems to be kind of slow after I download it I will re-up it to a few other places.

I apologize for my stupidness but as I've never owned an HTC device I'm not 100% sure I understand how this file works. So, do you need to put it into download mode and then run the exe or just enable debugging and then run it?
Definitely thanks. This would presumably break root if we had it.

You'll need to use HTC sync to RUU the phone, sort of like ODIN, except with HTC's software

Its basically your phones stock factory reset if you mess anything up being adventurous and trying to find a perm root. You plug your phone into your computer and run it from your desktop

Is this different than doing a hard reset?

I assume you mean restoring factory defaults which will wipe user data but it will not restore OS and kernel data whereas this will.

yeah, I think so. You can do a reset through the phone menus or through bootloader. That was the only 2 ways I knew. Will try this as my phone is a little sluggish after I did Zroot and deleted it and did a factory reset.

The only reason to restore stock RUU would be if you borked your phone or were perm rooted and wanted to return the phone to the store.
Got it. Thanks

Error [170]: Usb connection error

I received this error with my Heroc.
The way I fixed it was to have the phone at the bootloader when running the RUU. Not sure if that will work with this phone or not but worth a shot..
Restart the phone into bootloader - Power off and Power on while holding vol. down, or type adb reboot bootloader in your CMD prompt.
Once there make sure your phone is plugged in and says Fastboot USB at the top then try running the RUU again.
Let us know if it works.

usb debugging enabled?

[Q] Help Please!

So I have a VZW S3 on NE1 rooted and running xposed. I am not sure what module it was that I installed but my phone is now stuck with the SystemUI constantly crashing to the point of me being unable to use the phone. Then I, like a moron, Unrooted my phone thinking that would stop the issue. It didn't. I do have usb debugging enabled and my phone connects to the computer. Can I just boot into recovery and use the Xposed-disabler-recovery zip to fix this? will that wreck my phone since VZW is so annoying? Would that wipe my memory? And if that doesn't work what else could I do except pull everything I can off my phone and and reflash the entire thing using Odin?
Thanks a million!

OK, I see then just flash the xposed-disabled-recovery.zip using custom recovery. If you locked with only stock recovery, you may need to do a factory reset,

From stock recovery? That won't make my phone trip the fuse for modifying the system? By the way Thank you SO much for replying.

I accidentally hit send before finished typing, if you only have stock then a factory reset probably your best bet,

Exactly, that is must when FP is set up. If you forgot the password, then no help.

No.
It's not even possible to "forget" to set a separate password since it's a must if you setup fingerprint unlocking.
It's NECESSARY.
Otherwise you can't choose unlocking with fingerprint method. (Tried it by myself to be sure)

I mean, if he forgot that password, then he is in trouble. I said that the setup of that password is a must

How is that possible? You need to enter it twice to confirm.
On the other hand, this is a reason for security lock - if it can be bypassed easily, then what's the point of it?
You can still root, play around with the system
What about doing a factory reset?
Boot into download mode, Odin TWRP.
Boot into TWRP, only wipe system.
Reboot, wait 10-15 minutes, redo the setup.

The last time I checked the settings and fingerprints are located on /data, not system. But give it a try.

Whoops, forgot about /data. Perhaps he should flash Philz after TWRP, and then wipe /system and /data after making a nandroid.

Bypass Lockscreen

My friend uses Honor 6X. He is on stock Nougat ROM. He is no more now. Is there a way to bypass his phone's Lockscreen without losing data so we could get to know some details we need?
*And his phone's bootloader is Locked.
*No way to enable developer options.
*Can i boot into fastboot mode and using adb commands can i boot via TWRP temporarily?
Since the bootloader is locked, the only thing he can do is factory reset.
Don't forget to remember which Google account he used, as it will be required after the factory reset

TWRP Decryption password after 2/2018 update

I'm on a Pixel 2 and I sideloaded the February 2018 security update. I tried to install Magisk again by using "fastboot boot twrp-image.img". I've tried all the versions of TWRP available on their site (twrp.me)
I get into TWRP and enter in my pin to decrypt the phone, which I've always used. TWRP says incorrect password. This is the first time I've ever gotten this.
Anybody else having the same issue, or tips to fix? Thanks!
Yes, it's been mentioned a few times. Simply remove the password lock from your phone before booting into recovery, then add your password back after you're done flashing.

Thank you for this. I did quite a bit of searching last night and this morning but couldn't find anything on it. This makes sense and I'll give a try when I get home.

I removed the pin and when I went to fastboot boot twrp.img, it went right through without prompting for a password in TWRP.
You may need to reboot first, after the pin removal
