can't change lockscreen type and wallpaper L29C432B320 - Mate 8 Themes and Apps

Hi,
after going back from pre-rooted international B320 to rooted stock L29C432B320 I have the problem, that the phone doesn't change the lockscreen type to magazine. No matter what I choose in settings/lockscreen & passwords it won't apply.
Same if I try to set a different wallpaper for lockscreen, it won't apply...
I've read already some older threads about flashing userdata.img, but I don't know if I can flash userdata.img from an old firmware B1xx on my B320?
Thank you very much in advance for your help....

Bump, having the same issue

Galaxy s6 stuck on "custom binary blocked by frp lock"

Just yesterday night when i came home, I plugged in my phone to the charger and i noticed that this FRP lock notification appeared.
https://cdn-images.xda-developers.com/direct/3/4/0/9/7/0/1/IMAG0008.jpg
It looks like that. I attempted to flash a stock firmware on my phone because apparently that would be a solution to this problem. When I attempt to flash it to the stock rom, this message appeared " can't open the serial(com) port". I do not have kies installed so that isn't one of the problem. I have some important data saved on this phone, and I can't lose it. Is there a way to resolve this issue without having to factory reset?

In the first post, in the Odin Mode product name appears as SM-G920P but in Odin you try to flash G920T firmware.
install the stock rom with odin. I had same problem and fixed.

What happened when you just restarted the phone? All I see in the first picture is the phone is in ODIN Mode, the phone has been rooted, and one of the 2 Factory Reset Protection modes is on.

I agree with this post. As I had the same problem on the Note 5. U must flash the version tar that is on the phone or u will get a failed error. I worked for 2 days and this the only thing that worked. I hope u have a TWRP backup saved to your PC or to an OTG sdcard. Because u are going to lose everything.

It surprises me that no one has offered a real solution to this as of yet. It seeems like no one cares enough to follow up on their work. So here I am about to tackle another Custome Binary Blocked by FRP issue. Some of these FRP lock are quite difficult as you may see with this one I'm going to invite to the forum. I'll introduce Brookland and ask for an explaination of their issue so far.

Hi i dont know what aspecially you want to do...
would you just flash the stock rom? Then the frp Lock is no problem. You just need the right Firmware for your device. sm-g920F or 920T or 920P or 920W..........
to download samsung firmware just use:
samfirm
https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3803841&d=1467715462
or use frija
https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=4886005&d=1574653611
booth of them doing the same....to download the choosen firmware in a fast way.
then flash the firmware with odin und it will work.
or
would you remove the frp lock to flash costum rom on a device you found in the gras or on the beach a device you didnt know the google account login data.
its possible but....
btw your picture upload in the first thread isnt availlable any more

If it were that simple I would have been over this a month ago. I'm not talking about the FRP lock that is related to the google account sign in. It's "Custom Binaries are Blocked by FRP Lock". That's sometimes a lot more difficult to fix than your standard FRP lock. Like this time. This ones not in my hands or I would've been done with it by now.
I'm trying to assist someone who has their S6 Plus locked up and I've already supplied them with the Stock, Combination and Repair Files with no positive results. So unless you have another method I haven't heard of this one will be number 2 of devices out of 47 that I couldn't return to operational status. Thanks for trying to help.
Ok pls tell me...what kind of s6 it is.
First you need to flash the stock Rom from Samsung.
I have a Idea...do you have Teamviewer? Then i could try remote Control to Support you.
But you need first to flash the stock Rom. Even Stock Firmware is flash on the device. You need wait for first start. During startup you must enter the Google Login data. This Google Login data is the Key to Open the device and after this. To remove the frp Lock. Then you can flash any othrr Rom you like to.

MagazineUnlock Style gone from settings.

Hey guys, after successfully rebranding and rooting my MHA-L09C185B110 into MHA-L29C636B158 everything is working perfectly fine except for one thing.
Magazine Unlock.
When I go the the "Screen lock style" in settings it's empty. There's nothing.
I figured it could be because the MagazineUnlock folder was gone from the root of the sdcard. But I re-added it with the pictures and all, but I still can't use Magazine Unlock as my lockscreen style.
Note that when going into Settings ----> Screen lock and passwords, I can see "Magazine unlock" and I can change its settings. But going to Settings ----> Screen lock and passwords ----> Screen lock style, I cannot see Magazine Unlock. So can't really choose it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

dloading back would remove root and relock the bootloader. So if I did unlock the bootloader again to get root, things will be wiped again. That's the thing, when I unlocked the bootloader, a lot of apps, including all keyboards, and Google Apps were removed. I had to restore from my HiSuite backup to get them back. But I guess the Magazine Unlock did not get restored.
But yeah, if I did dload back I will get the same result.
What data.zip are you talking about? I'd appreciate it if you could give me a link!

Flashing hw_data fixed it! Thank you.

Cannot apply any themes.

Anyone else have this issue with the U.S. version? I downloaded some of the themes and put them in the right folder (HWThemes) but whenever I try to apply one, nothing happens. I even tried using the EMUI Theme Editor and nothing changes. All I have done was root and install TWRP. That's it. Any suggestions on how to fix this?
EDIT: Yes I am on EMUI 5.
Unlocking bootloader and root for mate 9 are breaking lot of things, maybe flash hw_data in twrp to fix themes issue.
I can change the background, but that's about it.. Apply Theme does nothing.. and I have the middle eastern version -- rooted yesterday

no need to decrypt image as superuser (superroot) does it for you.

to update thru OTA u must reflash stock Recovery,then after updated to the latest firmware BL will be lock and your root will be gone,so u need to unlock BL and flash TWRP and redo all the rooting steps again.
Is there a op that tells how to do that and can i extract a copy of the stock recovery sorry to ask such obvious questions but im trying to learn how to do all this. Thanks again

Try reinstalling them?
Or do you mean notifications on lockscreen? Because they won't show.
Huawei locked it down good. (at least for me, can't even get Spotify to show current song)
Floatify works great for lockscreen notifications though.
Edit: Actually, more people seem to have notification bugs with Messenger and WhatsApp. Maybe it's just a Huawei thing?
Or did they work before rooting?
Could you also check that they're not being closed automatically by the super aggressive battery saver thingie?
Settings - Battery: check that Power Saving is not turned on.
Next click on the cogwheel in the battery screen and make sure "Close excessively power-intensive apps" is not turned on.
And check in Settings - Apps - [App you want to check] - Battery that "Close after screen locked" is not turned on.

Wanting to Flash my Note 20 Ultra and I don't know where to start...

I've never flashed a cellphone and I don't even know if I can flash this one. I bought the phone through and when I was still with Sprint. I was told flashing it might be tricky if not impossible since I bought it through a carrier and was also told to come here and ask. So that's what I am doing. Thanks for any help!
Even you haven't said what you want to flash and why (mean what you want to achieve with flashing)

I'm sorry. It was a little late at night and I was trying to put the child down for sleep and was in a hurry. But I'm looking to just flash a stock ROM to get the vendors (Sprint) pre-installed apps off the phone. So I'm not looking to do anything to fancy.
Try flashing non vendor specific rom. But before that simply keep copy of rom which is installed currently, so in case something went wrong, you can restore it.
You can download stock firmware with friza or Sam firmware tool (little search over xda you can find it)
Okay, so I used Frija to get the file and now I'm using Odin to flash it. I have the BL, Ap, Cp, CSC, and USERDATA files. Only issue I have is I have two CSC files and I'm not sure which one to use? One is called HOME_CSC_OMC_OYN_N986UOYN1DUB5_CL20936746_QB38027387_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5 and the other is CSC_OMC_OYN_N986UOYN1DUB5_CL20936746_QB38027387_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5. I want to say it's the second one I mentioned but I want to make sure.
Home_CSC* won't delete your data while CSC_* will do.

What data is the Home file saving? Also what's the USERDATA file?
All other data that you have addled other than factory set.
Some apps install as non system, that known as userdata
Okay, Odin said it passed and my phone restarted to a Android Recovery section giving me a ton of options and now I'm nervous... The options are.
Reboot system now
Reboot to bootloader
Apply update from ADB
Apply update from SD card
Wipe data/factory rest
Wipe cache partition
Mount /system
View recovery logs
Run graphics test
Run locale test
Power off
Repair apps
Do I just want to reboot it?
Okay so I restarted it and the phone works, but everything is still the same. If I do a factory restore will that remove Sprint's apps? Or should I redo the process without adding the CSC and USERDATA files?
Sorry for bumping this but does anybody know the answer to my question?

From what I remember once you flash an unlocked firmware (ie. Not carrier branded) you need to factory reset to remove the carrier stuff from the old firmware
But don't quote me on it, just what I remember reading from others threads, I've not had to try it myself

You can kill 2 birds by using CSC instead of HOME_CSC when you flash the firmware, that initiates a factory reset after the flash (ie. Clean install)

Which ROM you have downloaded?
If you are flashing same sprint then it will always remain there. Make sure you are flashing unbranded firmware.
