Question A nice brick - ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s

Hello, I had the great idea to update my Asus Rog Phone 5 Pro without reviewing tutorials based on the steps marked on the official page and I turned it into a cute brick. I hope you can help me to solve this error I had FW WW-18.0830.2101.86 and cleverly tried to upgrade to FW WW-18.1220.2202.206
This error appears... and it does not allow access to recovery mode

it says reboot, that regular reboot to OS, not recovery.
and why you didn't use the latest FW version but still an old version?
Latest Android 11 is WW_18.0840.2202.231
Very last version and stable is WW_31.0810.1226.67 (Android 12)
Reboot and install latest version.

wrong fw for your phone, please make sure you're flashing compatible fw.
also that ver is ancient.... update to latest A11 then A12, otherwise it will also fail.

Just checked, the ver you flashed is for 5*S* pro model. the one you have is the regular 5.

Asus Android 11 Beta semi-bricked my phone - Urgent help needed

My phone is pretty much bricked. I cannot do anything with it.
So I installed the new update & now my phone keeps resetting to "No service" every second, then going to my Local carrier Telstra (Australia) 5 bars of reception, then resetting to "No service" again every second and repeats this non-stop.
On top of this, phone overheats so much and when I try to turn off the phone, it turns right back on again!
I can no longer call, message, use my data. I urgently need my phone back for work tomorrow morning.
com.android.phone keeps stopping error also appears at the start when I boot up my phone.
Before the update, I never had any issues.
So I guess the only way for me to fix my phone is to revert back to original asus stock firmware?
Ive tried asus own asus recovery using power button and volume up:
ive tried putting update.zip inside internal storage, but mount sdcard error shows up.
so, i try adb method, works and starts flashing and then.. it says the update.zip is older than the current firmware, and stops it halfway.
what are my options/how I can return to the stock original global rom from this nightmare android 11 beta to android 10 firmware? i have the official asus android 10 firmware already and unlocked bootloader..
try flash raw firmware you can find in google. tries to flash raw firmware. you can find it on google i think. Use the file flashall_AFT.cmd
when i google raw firmware, this shows up the drivers and firmware from official asus zenhelp shows up.
is this correct? i have downloaded it, however not clear as to what steps and additional programs are needed from here.

Hy, I flash raw firmware (https://mega.nz/folder/PzpVnQIQ#GPIFAeG8ntvFb6vGfcDTTQ) with the file "flashall_AFT.cmd" and now i'm unrooted and lock bootloader. PERFECT & THANKS YOU ALL
Do you know if ZS670KS (Zenfone 7) raw firmware works on ZS671KS (Zenfone 7 Pro)? I have the Pro maybe the post author too
Hey OP, where did you purchase it from? I'm from Australia too and just got my Zenfone 7 Pro delivered. And how did you receive the Android 11 update? OTA? I'm reluctant to OTA update as the last one on a new Zenfone 6 I bought bricked it too!

Official Xperia 5 ii Android 11 Stock Rom for Europe

I am wondering if there is any possibility to get an official Stock Rom (europe) of android 11 for xperia 5 ii. I tried to load version 58.1.A.5.530 with emma, but the install process aborted all the time. I was able to reinstall A12 via Xperifirm and new flasher command line tool and I'd like to install now A11 in the same ways. Any help? Thanks in advance
This is also my question! A12 is really frustrating me at the moment (calls dropping, bluetooth connect issues and also bluetooth volume control not working). Also the UI is just to gimmicky in my opinion. Spend the last 30 min to find a download for the official firmware for A11 europe, but wasn't able to track it down...
With more searching, I found a website with an archive of firmware files for the xperia 5 ii: https://support.halabtech.com/
It has the XQ-AS52_58.1.A.1.178_EE UK firmware. This should be it, right?
Firmware XQ-AS52 - Google Drive
drive.google.com
I'm a bit scared of bricking the device, so please let me know if this is the one for rolling back to A11
I don't know. It's definitely not the latest A11. I am not sure if there is a difference between UK and other Europe.
Any help?
I also see
XQ-AS52_EE UK_58.1.A.5.330.zip
and
XQ-AS52_Customized EEA_58.1.A.5.330.zip
these are more recent (aug 2021). Will download these two also and put those in the folder as well. Still not sure which version we need.
Check

According to this guide 58.1.A.5.530 is the latest A11 and the author was able to reinstall it. Unfortunately I wasn't able to reinstall it via Emma flash tool but I may try via NewFlasher again, if I have the complete A11 stock rom

I wasn't able to get Emma working for some reason, but will try again. The website I found doesn't have the .530 version for EE_UK, only for RU and Vodafone and Orange phones.
Let me know when you get it working. Good Luck. At the moment my phone runs stable on A12. No freeze since 48 hours
But I think I need the get back on A11 anyway
OK, do NOT use the EE UK firmwares! We need the CUSTOM EEA.
Flashing the wrong one gave an error on booting.
I am now trying to get the 58.2.A.2.80 working again, but am stuck in a bootloop atm. Any ideas?
Try to install xperiafirm and use it to download the right firmware (Android12 only) then use newflasher and the guide I published to reinstall A12 - still better than bootloop

with the latest firmware reflashed I am now stuck in a bootloop. Factory reset does not work.
I can get into the recovery menu, but after a couple of loops it says 'device corrupted'
Ok, sorry to hear that. I guess then I was lucky with a NewFlasher Resetup
A12 running again via the official Xperia Companion app
I think I will just stick with it atm
I got another Update today. Build 58.2.A.4.52. I hope it's better now...
The latest Android 11 Europe ROM for Xperia 5 II can be downloaded here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/looking-for-latest-android-11-firmware.4412601/
I have manually reverted it from the FTF format, so it can be used with the Newflasher, you can download it here:
http://koprajs.mx-net.cz/XQ-AS52_Customized EEA_58.1.A.5.530.zip
But if you've already installed Android 12, you cannot probably go back because of the "rollback protection" feature of the bootloader. The only way is to unlock the bootloader and reset the rollback index.
Thank you very much. It freezes all the time, I think I am going to try this.

T-Mobile to EU issues

Wonder if anyone else is having these issues. Went from T-Mobile to EU version, updated to C33 last night and I still have horrible battery life.
Phone has a massive battery drain and when I restart takes over 5 minutes to connect to cell service, sometimes even longer.
Any thoughts? Thinking of going to a custom rom

My first post on XDA forums. but just reflash using the TMO msm tool https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...l-to-restore-your-device-to-oxygenos.4180981/ choose OOS 11.0.7.9 then use the TMO to EU msm tool again, unlock the bootloader using the unlock.img you got from oneplus then run through the setup after this internal storage wont be wiped. then download the oneplus updater tool. turn on advanced mode, go for the stable full version but instead of choosing your device as the EU version, choose just oneplus 8T that way you get the international version. install full OOS update. not increments. Then just update to the latest android 12 from settings, about phone and update. if you want to stay on android 11 then make sure that you do all those steps again before using the updater app to upgrade to android 12. just install the latest OOS update from oneplus 8t repo ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/oneplus-8t-rom-ota-oxygen-os-repo-of-oxygen-os-builds.4193183/ ) 11.0.13.13: OnePlus8TOxygen_15.O.31_GLO_0310_2202182359 go to settings and search for update. click on the cog and choose the OOS 11 update. Sorry if I made any grammer mistakes. If you want root I'll reply with the easiest way I found to root oneplus 8T. The latest update too.

thanks for the reply, so the International version is the better build? I submitted for the bootloader unlock key. Still waiting.
thanks
Technically you can already flash regular kebab 2005 without unlocking the boot loader unless you want to have root. Just download the full update from oxygen updater and locally update to the INTERNATIONAL version without boot loader unlocked.

Yeah the international version is the most worked on stable builds

Question Weird problem on my OnePlus 9: my screen doesn't respond anymore after updating

XDA, we've had a problem here.
Hello everyone!
I'm throwing a bottle into the sea because I don't feel that other people have had the same problem.
I've been on the latest version of Lineage OS 18.1 until now. Having seen the latest version released (20.0) I tried to update my smartphone but the screen became unresponsive (plus there was no network: I'm in France #andr01dfr3ak).
So I used Scrcpy and I could use the phone "normally". I decided to redo a fresh installation from OOS (I had to downgrade) and install the latest version of Lineage OS 19.1 (and wait for the 20.0 to be stable).
So I used MSM and installed an Indian version of OOS on my phone. My screen was responding again. Wanting to put the latest version of OOS in order to reinstall Lineage OS, I have updated OOS via OTA and I had the same problem as before: the screen does not respond anymore but now without any possibility to activate anything in the developer options.
Thus, in summary: I'm currently stuck with (the last?) OOS because the screen that doesn't respond anymore (but it's on and all the buttons work) and I have no possibility to activate anything in the developer options (so no USB debugging etc.).
What do you think I should do?
When you flashed the wrong firmware and wonder why the display doesn't work. The firmware you flashed thinks your phone is the India 9r version and all updates will only give you india stuff now. You must flash EU version of firmware. Link https://github.com/libxzr/FastbootEnhance
