How to fix Mi Box boot loop after Oreo update? - Android Stick & Console Computers General

After receiving and installing the Oreo update on my international Mi Box, it's in a bootloop.
I don't have a custom recovery installed on it. I tried re-installing the update with the stock recovery.
But when I try to install it, it says "This package is for "once" devices; this is a "".". How can I fix it?
Removing the lines that check the model would obviously help, but as always: that won't install with the stock recovery...
It's my main device that enables me to watch tv shows, so I really hope you can help me!

Does anyone know a solution for this problem?

did try the latest update 2179?try to flash it with a usb stick and add the xiaomi update file not just the zip

[Q] can someone make a flashable zip for latest OTA

i would like to install the latest OTA update for 4.4.2 but it keeps failing.
i flashed stock recovery and i have stock kernel.
when i apply the update it just states that the update was unsuccessful.
any idea on how to solve this? i have tesco moto g on which i flashed stock UK firmware. it is only rooted. i do not think that i have deleted system apps and i tryed disabling xposed modules.
could someone make a flashable zip if it is possile?
i would really appreciate it :victory:
I use the latest TWRP as my recovery and it updates the OTA files fine, so I would suggest trying that.

Shutting down Repeatedly When trying to Update Marshmallow

Hi All,
I have Moto X play running on android 5.1.1 lollipop. It was rooted recently and used with cyanogen Mod 12.1 for a month. during that time i did back up of entire phone. later i restored that and at present i have been using stock Rom. Recently i got official update for Android marshmallow and i downloaded the 500+Mb file and tried to install. In that process it was going to Twrp recovery mode and not installing properly. So i did reboot system. After 5 mins i turned on mobile, it got shutdown and i again restored my backup . It was working fine. cant we update to Marshmallow with the rooted device? If so how to stop the notifications of android system updates? I tried this way but still i am getting update notification
Apps--> All---> Motorola Update services--> turned off the notification
.How to disable it so that i should not receive update notification? or any other process to upgrade to marshmallow even after rooting? Please let me know

you need stock recovery to update to OTA mm, you cannot update from TWRP. download the lollipop stock-firmware extract the recovery file and flash it, then update.
i wanted to ask that after restoring from backup you got OTA update notification ? or you downloaded the MM update from other sources?? because i thought after rooting i wont get official OTA.

if you have your backup just do a full flash on stock rom and start fresh. there's an Asian 6.0 rom (I believe it is Indian) on the x play github. then proceed with root again.

Actually i am not android developer or android related person. After i heard many things about rooting the devices. I just give it a try by watching the video in you tube. So i am not aware of the core technical terms you specified.
First rooted the mobile. before installing the cyanogen Mod 12.1, i took back up in TWRP recovery mode. i used that same backup to restore after my device got shutdown. Yes even after rooting i got the Update notification

i think if you can block/disable notifications for Google Play Services, it'll remove the update notification.

Sir, Is it possible to unroot the rooted devices in any way? if so could you please let me know
if you want to unroot you can do it from superuser, its mentioned in the youtube video. just unroot from superuser settings.
then if you want to upgrade to marshmallow download Indian stock lollipop rom from https://github.com/motoxplay/stock. unzip it on your computer to the the folder where you kept TWRP while flashing it . you'll see a file named recovery.img.
from adb run the command
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
i.e flash this recovery just the way you flashed TWRP.
then you can update to marshmallow.
and did disabling google play services removed your update notification???

You just have to download the twrp flashable 6.0 zip file and restore it through twrp. No extra things.

nope no problem just flash the recovery. but before doing anything take a backup on your external sdcard twrp>>backup[look at bottom to change where to store the backup select sd card] for security if in case anything goes wrong, you can flash twrp again and restore.

Just follow the procedure as given in that thread and everything will be fine.
It has nothing to do with the way you rooted your phone.
If a phone has twrp installed, he has nothing to fear about upgrading to latest versions as the updates are made available on Xda in Twrp flashable zip.
So no need to format the stock firmware again and then update and then all the headache.

Sir, In your previous post you meant to say this?
1. First unroot the mobile using the super Su (settings)
2. Then flash the Stock lollipop rom mentioned in the github
3. Then update the mobile to Marshmallow
4. Then again root the device

1. correct
1.1. check oem unlock and usb debugging
1.2. Copy the original old backup which you took, to your external sdcard. [just to return to stock if anything goes wrong]
2. Just flash the recovery which is present in the lollipop rom, no need to flash the whole rom.
3. correct
4. Do NOT flash the old superuser to root. To root again follow these steps http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-play/general/root-how-to-root-6-0-easly-t3277202

Huawei P8 (Nova) Lite 2017 Soft-bricked, No OS, can't flash any firmware

Hi, my son's phone became unusable after clicking on an MMS link. I have since been able to unlock and get TWRP installed on it. After that I am unable to flash ANY kind of firmware on it (PRA-LX2). It had already updated to the latest version of EMUI droid 6. No matter trying to flash via Fastboot, sideload or SD card nothing works. In some places I found info saying that one can't flash lower versions of Android as the latest update changes the partitions. Huawei says the latest update is unavailable for download, so no way to get it as obviously HiSuite does not work.
If anyone can help me out I'd be very grateful. If there is any other info anyone needs about this problem please just let me know and I'll do my best to find what you need to help. Thanks

Note5 Pro Indian Version Stock ROM Not updating OTA, Says something went wrong

Hi All
I am on MIUI 10.3.1 Stock ROM and Recovery. I can download update, but when it is about to update, says something went wrong.
I tried to download the update zip file and tried to update using choose package, the same error.
I must tell you that in order to enable Camera2 API, I had installed TWRP_ZCX recovery temporarily and had flashed HAL3_Enable_MIUI_PIE a month before.
I am sure this error might have something to do with that recovery. Any help?
Will installing a stock recovery sort the error? If yes, where do I get it? But more importantly, will I lose all my data?
Download full recovery package and install

Hi Sunil,
I tried this zip file in two ways, one is by using the system update and choosing package. It gave me the same error.
So i tried to use this file for Mi Flash tool, but says flash script not found.
Any more advice?

Hello,i think this is funny becquse igot the same error. But,I have locked bootloader no root, i was thinking about enabling camera2api ,but not tried it. Only flashed (via updater app) recovery roms (also tried dev. Versions of roms) , and in each rom version is the same error. So my OTA dont work anymore. Last update i must downloaded manually. Somthing ,somewhere is wrong.
Btw: (whyred global version phone,in EU)
Well, 10.3.2 fastboot also didnt flash properly. So I tried 10.3.1 Fastboot files using MI flash tool, after 10.3.1 zip file also failed. And 10.3.1 fastboot file flashed successfully and then it updated normally to 10.3.2. Guess my recovery image was corrupted for some reason.

"Package verification failed" when trying to update Android 11

Hey all
So a while back I wanted to use a certain app on my Motorola One Hyper that required root privileges, so I rooted my phone using Magisk for it. I didn't need the app later so I unrooted my phone, but now when I try to update my phone to a newer version, I get an error message saying "Package verification failed. The update package being downloaded is not compatible with the current software version on the device".
I'm not sure if me rooting the device has anything to do with it or not, but I'm guessing it is since I never had this issue before the root. Any way to fix this? Thanks in advance!

Yes, it probably is the root.
If you are trying to update the stock rom, it probably will not work. You may have to manually flash the stock rom again. Then, you may be able to upgrade to android 11. Otherwise you can just manually install android 11.

Ahh gotcha. Looks like I'm gonna have to flash the stock rom then. Thanks a lot for your help!
Does having a SafetyNet fix have something to do with it? Maybe unrelated, maybe not but when I check off the software update on the Magisk DenyList, exit and then come back, it becomes unchecked and I don't know why. Perhaps if the OTA updates werent detecting root, I could update to a security patch.

Stock updates usually can't be applied to rooted devices or devices with custom recovery, root has to be completely removed and stock recovery has to be reinstalled. If those aren't corrected before applying the update, it will fail because it checks the system partition for modifications and requires stock recovery to apply the update, whether it actually boots into recovery or not during the update process.
