[Guide] How to install security updates on rooted Nokia 8 - Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion

Process to install security updates on rooted Nokia 8
Download the Nokia 8 OTA zip files on your Computer from this link in the OTA folder https://bit.ly/nokia-nb1 (it's usually up to date)
Download the Nokia 8 latest FULL ROM OTA zip file on your Computer from this link in the OTA folder https://bit.ly/nokia-nb1 (usually with size above 1 GB, currently it is: NB1-5150-0-00WW-B03-update.zip 1.52 GB)
Connect the phone to the PC using the USB cable and enable USB debugging (after enabling developer options)

If you see your device and ID then all good so far
Use the following adb command on your Computer
adb reboot bootloader
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Alternative to the previous step, you can select ADB sideload from the stock recovery menu after booting into stock.
when the device reboots into bootloader / or ADB sideload is selected from recovery use this command on your computer:
adb sideload path_to_zip/FULL_ROM_OTA.zip
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Once loaded, reboot using the command
adb reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Sideload the OTA updates you have downloaded in step 1 using the same process as before OR Update normally through android system settings. Keep updating and restarting until you have the latest update
Download the latest Nokia 8 Stock boot image file on your phone from this link in the STOCK BOOT folder https://bit.ly/nokia-nb1 (it's usually up to date)
Make sure you have the correct Stock boot image file for the the software version you have. (if you have May update, use May image, June update then use June Image, etc....)
Use magisk manager to root the boot image you just downloaded. Use the second option like in the photo below

Enjoy
Wait one more month
Repeat
Tested scenarios:
Working on TA-1012 to get the Pie May 2019 update from April update
Working on TA-1012 to get the June 2019 update from May update
Working on TA-1012 to get back to latest rom (NB1-5150-0-00WW-B03-update) from April update
Working on TA-1012 to get back to latest rom (NB1-5150-0-00WW-B03-update) from May update
Working on TA-1012 to get back to latest rom (NB1-5150-0-00WW-B03-update) from June update
Screenshot, showing update using system settings to May update, after sideloading full ROM (NB1-5150-0-00WW-B03-update) from a rooted device on May update, proving downgrading works fine.

June files have been updated to the link: https://bit.ly/nokia-nb1
Thanks to Dorian Stoll

Well I got nowhere. The moment I reboot into bootloader, the device isn't visible in adb anymore, but only under "fastboot devices", so "adb sideload path-" fails because it can't find the device. What gives?

I'm still on TWRP at this stage. I can't get past step 7.

Hi guys,
is it necessary to sideload OTA updates? Can I just update the system in settings and then flash a rooted boot image corresponding to the update version?

This is for people like me who are not able to run twrp on their phones. If you have twrp you should be able to flash the zip file easy. This guide assumes you have stock recovery

Update: confirmed working for July update as well.

I'm sorry if this seems dumb, but I'm kinda new to all of this. I have TWRP and now I want the July patch, how can I do it?
Update: I gave up and flashed stock recovery.

In twrp it should be straight forward to flash a zip file which includes the update. Another option or if this fails, start sideload from twrp like in the following photos

Hi, links no longer working. Does anyone have working links for V5.15D ? I need stock boot image and OTA update to sideload. Thanks.

Unfortunately the phone has been abandoned by the developers. I have got myself a xiaomi 9t.
I'm sorry

Oh man, can you still get stock images or whatnot anywhere? I only need the least that will get me back to stock before I turn it in for warranty but not sure where to start.

Sorry man I relied on the other developer's repository so much that I can't offer any tools nor files. I can help you get to stock easy. As Nokia offers the original Rom on their website officially. I believe it can be found here
https://www.nokia.com/phones/en_int/betalabs
Register for beta labs then de register and download the latest firmware they offer you

Hey, sorry for the late reply. I attempted to get back to stock via NOST and the 5150 image he provided https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...re-nokia-to-stock-t3867646/page3#post80627823 , but turns out I don't have critical unlocked and seem to have misplaced the unlock key. What can I do next?

The web page requires a validation code that you get from the unlock app from your phone and as we know the app gives a nice "Device not support" if you try running it on Pie. Tested myself just in case.

In the end I've decided to just go for it and see what happens. Shouldn't make things worse. Flashed the stock boot image for my security patch right on top of TWRP. The phone booted, but I still couldn't install updates. Tried flashing the next update (May) from both ADB and the SD card - failed with the same download state initialization error. Figured I may as well try the same but with the full .zip of my current OS version (April) and while it took pretty long, it finished with no issues and OTA's started rolling in without a hiccup. Surprisingly I didn't even lose any of my data in the process, which I was preparing for. I guess all that's left is to lock the bootloader?
Anyway thanks for the help!

OTA update for F1f

A new official ColorOS udpate from OPPO is available in my region and at least all Europe I guess.
This is version F1fEX_11_170327. A copy of the OTA update package is here if anyone needs it: F1EX_11_OTA_896-897_patch_201703271119_3cf702307f.zip on MEGA (56.0 MB).
A few screenshots if you want to see the changelog: http://imgur.com/a/5UiiQ

This is still Android 5.1.1 with a 3.10.28 kernel. No Marshmallow
I'm a bit amazed by the continuous support from OPPO, and especially the security patches integrated in those updates. I was not expecting this from this brand. This is part of what's preventing me from completely switching to LineageOS. This is my only smartphone and I need it to just work.
Now I wish I can unroot my phone, lol
You can, I did it.
The simplest method:
- copy ColorOS & Project Spectrum zips provided by OPPO
- boot in fastboot mode
- Install stock recovery with fastboot
- Reboot to recovery
- Install Project Spectrum
- Reboot to recovery
- Install ColorOS
You should be stock, relocked.

Thank you!
But where can I get stock recovery?
You can extract recovery.img from the ColorOS zip.
If someone were to flash this via twrp. When they have followed this thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/op...pdates-rooted-unlocked-devices-t3395034/page8
They would loose twrp and lose he unlocked bootloader correct?
This zip is only for OPPO*recovery, not for TWRP. It needs to be modified. If modified, I don't think recovery or unlocked state would change as recovery is not included in the original zip.

The update zip does contain and flash the locked bootloader(emmc_appsboot.mbn) and also the update zips never contain a recovery.img but do have a script(install_recovery.sh) and patches that patch the latest recovery onto latest boot.img and flash it to recovery. So, yes, flashing it will lock everything down. Modifying it to remove bootloader and recovery is easy enough( I'm happy to do it) but it will also check the current build version on the phone before flashing and refuse to flash unless the rom has been updated to the "896" level, which I have never seen an update zip to go from 894 to 896 (891-894 is the newest update I have seen posted till now). There is a new download of full rom available for the 896 version which could also be modified to install from twrp without bootloader and recovery but it does require a full wipe. If enough people want it, I guess it would be good to have a more up to date full clean install of colouros.
Do you think it's worth the effort?

It would be nice if we ever go back to color os. But don't rush it. Take your time. Its not a big rush. But I would rather the time be spent in lineage first. Up to you

I have a 010 to 896 patch here if needed: https://mega.nz/#!hxxDxAwb!nLa3aDvz3GubMcTaxqaLowRujDt6UKcn0DohuhkclXY
Thanks for all the info. From my point of view, I don't think it's worth the effort. I'd rather work on LineageOS (maybe I'll have time on monday to try new things)

That would be the hardest way in my opinion. Try these first.
I would use the supersu app first and if that doesn't work then use the manual delete

Before install OTA update,you MUST in stock ROM without any mod like flash custom recovery or root or uninstall any apps.
No need relock bootloader.
Solution : flash newest stock MM by cmd command or RSD Lite.

For people who had tried to flash the soak test and failed have no way to upgrade to nougat at this moment.
I myself had tried to update the soak test via stock recovery and stuck into bootloop.
I unlocked my bootloader & rolled back to 6.0.1, but yesterday when I got the official ota for 7.1.1 I simply downloaded the update was halfway through the upgradation process suddenly it showed the android logo with red exclamation mark & when I tried to turn my device on it was stuck in bootloop.
I again flashed the stock 6.0.1 rom and found some strange issue i.e. when I am getting the marshmallow ota (3 otas of MM), the device is restarting to the bootloader instead of getting into the recovery and updating automatically which used to happen earlier, once I click the volume down button and enter the recovery manually the update automatically starts to get applied.
After all the 3 ota when I once again got the notification for 7.1.1 upgrade it was again struck midway with the android and red exclamation sign.
So had to again roll back to 6.0.1
Earlier I had the moto g1 and things were not this complex back then, it was so easy to flash the soak test or captured ota via stock recovery
People who are facing this issue have to flash 6.0.1 and wait for moto to release 7.1.1 fastboot rom or if someone releases a twrp flashable 7.1.1 zip :crying:

When you downgrade to 601, dont flash 2 file: motoboot and gpt.bin. Flash all except 2 that file
why in my x play i didn't get update yet??????
???????
I just got the OTA update today too.
Edit. I am a thai user.
Exactly two years after me buying this phone, I am glad the promise is finally delivered on by Motorola (now Lenovo I guess). A little late, yeah sure. But none the less it is here and happy I am! If I had bought a Samsung/Asus/LG or any other top brand's phone worth 15K INR (it was a big billion deal on Flipkart) in 2015 I doubt I would be able to say the same now.
Can anyone upload the update file??
Anyone capture the ota:
When you receive an OTA notification, DON'T download it. To capture the OTA, follow the steps mentioned below:
1. Download Terminal Emulator from the Play Store (https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...ww.apk4fun.com).
2. Open Terminal Emulator and type: "logcat > /sdcard/ota.txt" (without quotes).
3. Go back to the OTA notification & click on download.
4. When the download process is starting, switch back to terminal emulator & close it.
5. Browse to your SD Card using any file manager. There you'll find a file named "OTA.txt". Open it & search for OTA download link in it.
That's it.

Is TWRP out for the OP7 yet? Or is this AIO tool basically still a work in progress (not all functions operational yet)?
I don't see the OnePlus 7 posted on TWRP's official website. Or on xda for that matter. I can find a couple dodgy "how to root" guides for the OP7, but they just look like clickbait. One just links to the TWRP main page (instead of an actual file download specific to the OP7). Another actually contains links for the OP6! Not just deceptive, but can possibly cause folks problems!

Hi, this tool has all function ready for op7 and op7 pro ( i'm only waiting for the branded unlock bootloader procedure). Actually for what i know there is not a twrp available, but in all cases the tool allow you to flash a third part twrp.img and not only the twrps in the list (I can update the twrp list without updating the tool, so when a new working twrp will be released i will add it in the twrp list). The other functions, like reboots, bootloader unlock,or apk installer/uninstaller are perfectly working because they are a bit generic. For the root is the same problem, the tool use the twrp to root the device so without it you can't root the device with the tool. This tool is available for all others OnePlus devices and i'm official TWRP maintainer for Op6 and Op6T, so when a stock rom will be released i will start also to work on the TWRP and the others features.
anyone got the stock recovery for the Oneplus 7?
Thanks for the good work. However, the tool fails for me. I have an unlocked bootloader.
Version: 1.1.1.6
1. MD5 check error after TWRP download
2. Skip MD5 check throws "unable to open zip file" error
3. Deleted all files and tried again - still the same.

Special Notes:
DON'T FORGET TO ENABLE "OEM UNLOCK" (located in Developers options)
KNOX will be tripped once you flash custom binaries to your phone. Your warranty may be voided. However this may not affect you if your country forces Samsung to provide hardware warranty regardless of software status
Samsung Firmware OTA (aka System Updates) will no longer work once you flash custom binaries. You can flash custom ROMs if you want to keep the OS up-to-date
All apps that use KNOX like Samsung Pay, Secure Folder and maybe more will no longer work

I'm really tempted to flash this TWRP and root my A40. Though I know Android 10 has been announced (at least in my region) for April 2020. Should I wait until then? My main concern is, if i flash it now, how easy will it be to upgrade to Android 10 then?
The only real thing I use root privileges for is to remove bloatware completely and edit the hosts file, so I can wait a few months. Also what about dm-verity? Are there any problems there?
My question and can I use this recovery on ITV-A405FNXXU2ASK2-20191218161204?

The choice of waiting is only yours.
In my case I need this as I'm using a custom Treble ROM and not Samsung's firmware.
The ease to upgrade to Android 10 relies only on the your expertise on how to flash the original firmware using ODIN.
At the time of the upgrade you need to use ODIN to flash an original firmware from Android 9 to be able to fully restore the original behavior and flash Android 10.
As far as I'm concerned, DM-Verity is related with both DT and DTBO partitions and those partitions are not even touched during this process.
The ones that are changed are BOOT, RECOVERY and VBMETA to disable a few security procedures from Samsung to be able to flash and boot custom binaries.
Because of this, take in consideration the "Special Notes" section in the first post.
Nevertheless, if the need of changing the hosts file is to block ads, you can reach the same goal by using the "Private DNS" feature introduced in Android 9 as explained here.

As you can see in the first post, this TWRP version is for the firmware A405FNXXU2ASJ1 (October's update).
I am still waiting for Samsung to drop A405FNXXU2ASK2 (December's update) sources here to update TWRP.
I'll keep you posted when the sources drop and work on TWRP update begins.

So I tried to install this recovery on the ASK2 firmware and it worked, there is only one problem when it goes down the brightness does not return anymore remains low! Then another thing I rooted with Magisk is it's not working, come up with an error and then I'll try to take a screenshot!
thank you again for your job
i just updated my rom to the SK2 (downloaded the rom, flashed it with Odin)
then installed you twrp (the SJ1 is OK)
then flashed with magisk manager the boot.img to Root the Rom
and then flashed the param.bin with a better boot logo
thank you so much for your job !!

Magisk-Root is working for me.
I did this:
[*]Backup of ASJ1 with TWRP
[*]Complete odin flash of ASK1
[*]TWRP - ASJ1 - Version
[*]direct reboot into TWRP
[*]Format Data
[*]Flash Multidisabler
[*]Full Boot
[*]Install Magisk.APK from sd-card
[*]Reboot into TWRP
[*]Flash Magisk
[*]Full boot to check of root access => ok
[*]Reboot into TWRP
[*]Restore of ASJ1-Data​
​
Everything working!
Thanks for the recovery, is working fine with latest ITV (Italian no brand) firmware, to have root is only simple necessary to flash latest Magisk ZIP via twrp (https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445)
i have a big problem about twrp on my phone
I have followed this thread
But when i flash twrp (i have uncheck "reboot" on odin of course) i can't get access to the recovery mode, when i do power button + volume up it doesn't do nothing and show this :
(I have already unlock my boot loader)
I think its DM VERITY who block the access to recovery mode but i can't disable this, cause i can't get access to twrp :/
Thanks for any answers c:

Can confirm it works with ATA4 (region DBT). Same procedure my post above. With restoring Data as last step there isn't anything lost as well... :good:
Be sure to enable usb debugging after flash of new firmware. Otherwise TWRP flash would fail...

I had some similar problem.
It was a wrong TWRP, I had to try 3 different ones until it finally worked (the one for AJ1 worked for me).
If you are in a bootloop you still can press Volume UP + DOWN and at the same time put the USB cable in when booting. This should set your phone into the download mode and you can flash TWRP or OS again.
Has anyone tried this TWRP build with ATB1 February patch version? It has increased BL version (2->3) so it is not possible to roll back to any older FW...
From my information ATB1 is still the same security patch level as ATA4.
General question: How can I judge the BL version of the firmware?

Well, my info comes from samfw.com/firmware/SM-A405FN/TMZ, not sure how do they extract it.
both ATB1 - samfw.com/firmware/SM-A405FN/TMZ/A405FNXXS3ATB1 and ATA4 - samfw.com/firmware/SM-A405FN/XEZ/A405FNXXU3ATA4 seems like BL (or some OTP bits, I am noob with android internals) bumped from 2 to 3.

As I mentioned earlier ATA4 firmware works fine with TRWP.
But I'm not sure if ATA4 has BL 3.
Does the digit 10 in the firmware number represents the BL?
ruffyrisco said:

Then reboot into Download mode (you have to do it manually, not via ADB command) and look into top left corner. On ATB1, one of last lines says
Code:
AP SWREV B:3 K:3 S:3
I assume that some fo those numbers (B?) is OTP number set by BL version.

I am not sure which *10* do you mean. It looks like version prefix is bootloader version, number 3 in A405FNXXS3ATB1 or number 2 in A405FNXXU2ASK2. It is the only number which seems to corellate with BL version.
Also, now I can confirm that that this TWRP build (based on A405FNXXU2ASJ1) works with ATB1 firmware! (february sec. patch) Successfuly tested with Phhussons Android 10 GSI quack v213.

How To Guide RUI 3.0 Easy Rooting Guide - On GT NEO 2

This thread going to guide you on how you can root Realme GT NEO 2 Device with RUI 3.0 installed.
This boot image is fresh, and it's patched for root access.
Caution: Before flashing, you need to have your bootloader unlocked, for bootloader unlocking, go to this link and follow the procedure to get approval and unlock your device bootloader.
Link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/bootloader-unlock-realme-gt-neo-2-rmx3370-all-variants.4391679/
After you get approval, you are ready to root your device!
For this tutorial, I gonna use a windows device.
​WARNING!​
I am not responsible for anything. proceed at your own risk. Rooting or Unlocking the Bootloader voids the device warranty, keep it in your mind.
STEP - ONE​
Only follow this step, if you get approval for the bootloader, and you didn't unlock this device or your flashing environment needs to be configured. You need to visit the following link to set up your environment for flashing a custom boot image.
Link: https://njpsmultimedia.blogspot.com/2022/04/realme-gt-neo-2-bootloader-unlock.html you just need to follow the video tutorial on this website.
STEP - TWO​​It's assumed that your environment is properly configured. Let's flash this boot image to root your device.
Download this zip file from here https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Xk1yBp5EDCZbl3i3jMtOhjfaVtTCQqYB/view?usp=sharing and copy the boot.img file to platform-tools folder.
Then open the terminal and cd to the platform-tools folder.
Then, shut down your device and hold the vol up + vol down + power button together to boot this device into fastboot mode.
First, you need to run
Code:
fastboot devices
to check if your device is properly connected to the bootloader interface. If it shows something then your device is properly connected, If not, try to install the device driver, change the cable, or boot into the bootloader mode again.
If your device is connected properly, then you will see a screen like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And then run this command:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then,
Code:
fastboot reboot
You are done! Congratulation.
Note: This method was tested with Realme UI 3.0 android 12 on GT NEO 2. Do not try this method on RUI 2.0 or on other devices.
SCREENSHOTS​
Note ​
If you face NO WIFI, Sound issue on the C04 version, you are advised to flash this alternate version from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...uide-on-gt-neo-2.4435919/page-2#post-86985433

- it is necessary to have the bootloader unlocked before flash (instructions on how to unlock the bootloader can be found in the video in the post above or here on the forum)
- after flash just install Magisk manager
no data loss, tested and functional

If your bootloader is already unlocked, no data loss. but If your device bootloader is not unlocked, then unlocking your device data will be erased.

No solution so far. I think first everything was fine, after flashing the magisk boot image it's gone worse... But I'm not sure.
I do not recommend updating on RMX3370_11_C.0. After flashing boot image (without Magisk) wifi no longer working.
I flashed clean firmware and lock bl i am done moding this device only adb debloat.. And after clean flash netflix still wont open login screen...
