Hey Guys,
I'am wondering if there is a possibility to protect the bootloader mode.
For example if you have installed a 'GPS tracking software' and your phone gets stolen, it's very easy to flash a new ROM on your phone and nobody is able to trace you anymore. Or if you have PDA's for your personal, and you don't want them to **** with it.
That way your phone is totally protected!
Maybe somebody is able to make a .CAB so you need to enter a password every time you enters the bootloader mode, or is it not possible to use your keyboard in that mode?
Anyway: IS THERE ANY SOLUTION
'cause I am just a rookie
Thanks in advance,
GertieBoy
my verizon xperia is not recognized by either pc companion or seus. I am trying to do a hard reset due to the fact the lockscreen doesnt work. I have read that I can press and hold the back and search keys on front while powering on to factory reset the phone, however that does not seem to be the case. Can anyone give me some suggestions if the two button factory reset does work and that maybe I am just doing it wrong. And any suggestions as to how to get my phone to connect with seus so I can reset if teh 2 button trick is indeed not an option. Thank you to all in advance.
Doesnt anyone have an idea? I follow seus instructions. Power off wait 30 seconds, then plug in the usb cord to the pc, then press and hold the back button then inserting the usb cable into the phone... and then I wait for it to connect which it doesnt.
have you tried removing the battery wait a bit and put it back and then try again. I had something similar happen when I first got mine.
yes.... I waited beyond the 30 seconds it suggests. I eve waited about 2 hours once. Still nothing......I really want to get this device working.....it does power up. Everything seems like its supposed to work but it isn't. Thank you for helping me... I really really appreciate it.
hey, if youre comfortable, we can unlock the bootloader on it. if we do that, then you can just use fastboot and the files you can get off of my State of Development thread to return you back to stock. You could also root it. If that interests you, send me a pm with your ESN and Ill get you an unlock code.
Or do you still wanna try to figure out the **** fest that is SEUS?
I would love to unlock the bootloader. I have always had motorola android phones so even though i have never unlocked the bootloader I would love to.
Where would I find the ESN #? I am not able to get past the lock screen....so all I can do it make emergency calls
I have PM'd you my phones info. Thank you for your assistance
What is preventing you from passing the lock screen exactly? Programming?
the phone says that the pattern lock attempts has been exceeded... and the only way to unlock is to enter either a gmail info or answer the question. Neither of which I know.
Ahh! phew i thought it was more serious than that. Were you able to have the phone activated on your Verizon account okay? The esn wasnt blacklisted or anything?
And the funny thing is, even if you HAD got seus working, it would not have fixed that problem. SUES doesnt wipe the device as far as I know.
the *#06# in the emergency dialer doesnt show anything?
also the MEID is under the battery.
I have not activated the phone as I cant really use it in its current state. I did check with Verizon and the phone can be activated no problems.
I do have the MEID #, is it safe to list it here?
Also, the phone does not take the #* code, says its not an emergency number
K, i have successfully unlocked my bootloader on my phone..... I am trying to make sense of what to do next
YAY!!!!!. I unplugged and rebooted the phone after unlocking the bootloader and now my phone is back... I can sign into google now
you should use this command and reflash the stock system
fastboot flash system system.sin -w
this will erase usersettings and reinstall the stock rom.
make sure you have the rom downloaded.
edit- Never mind.

Thats great! totally forgot that actually unlocking the bootloader performs a factory reset. So awesome! Go get you some root!
now that I have it restored, the screens touch sensitivity is all over, it keeps thinking I am trying to load up voice commands. I would like to flash a rooted ROM, and from what I have read on kernals for the r800x theres nothing worth flashing just yet. Can anyone point me in the right direction on how to flash a rooted stock rom?
Also, I am still not able to enter Flash mode with the whole back button while inserting usb cable. the light is still blue.... any suggestions?
You shouls be holding the search key.
sent from the original unlocked R800X.
i will try the search button instead. Also I flashed a kernal and now the phone is super slow. How do I flash the stock ROM and stock kernal. I am doing some reading but I am still lost. seems like I get routed to xperia arc pages...... can anyone give me some guidance. sorry to be a pain, but I am excited to learn

Hey, everything you need to know is in the many pages (and the initial post which is constantly updated) on my State of Development thread. Read through there and you will see that everyone else is also having problems with the kernels and roms making the phone unresponsively slow. The first post also has links for stock files that you might need.
Basically if you get your phone into fastboot mode (turn off, hold search key, plug in USB line, solid blue light turns on) you can do two commands to get you back to stock, and then follow the rooting instructions that I have on the R800x Rooting thread. Its linked in the state of development thread. Second item, i believe, below the link to Bin4rys.
The two commands would be "fastboot flash system system.sin" and "fastboot flash boot kernel.sin". the first command might not be necessary even, just the kernel one might fix you.
I have somehow locked my phone out. I have tried resting my pattern with my gmail but it didn't work. Before I did managed to unlock my phone but I think I may have changed the pattern. Does anybody know any other way that I can unlock my phone. I am rooted. I'm not sure if there usb debugging is enabled.
I figured out my pattern. All fixed. Don't worry. Mods pls delete the thread.
Wipe via recovery.
Wipe? what do I wipe? the whole rom?
Good morning,
I'm writing this post 'cause I'd like to know if it's a possibility to "unlock", if I can say this, my phone. My company installs on my phone VMware Hub and the Debug USB is locked because I cannot unlock the related menu. I've tried to format the phone from original recovery by wiping data and nothing changed. So, I've run my phone into bootloader in order to overwrite the original firmware with a new original one. The process is ok but when I restart my phone, VMware is installed and configured.
Now, a question, is it possible to remove it withouth root or debug USB? I'm so annoyed because it is possible to check everything I do in my phone
Did someone answer you? I have the same problem.
Thanks.
Hello, sorry for such late reply been way for too long, the answer is simple, go to developer options, select the oem unlock option reboot the phone to download or recovery i don't remember, a message will come before that will alow you to unlock bootloader, precede to unlock, i can't recall if the phoene will reset but i assume so, when it comes back it will no longer be tied to your employer, it will be an A50 like any other bougt on the store, keep in mind that from then foword you will get a message saying that bootloader is unlocked at phone power on, that's it
Hi all;
I writing to ask if I can get support from you in order to recover data from my phone. This is the situation I have a Xiaomi 10T 5G device that 4 days ago suddenly reboot and get stuck on MI logo screen. I have try entering in Recovery mode and test Reboot, Safe Mode and Repair Mode with no luck. I have try also to connect it to MIPC suit but the phone get not detected, only if I put it in fastboot mode I got a message from PC suite telling that I should change to Normal mode and reconnect.
I have installed ADB drivers and my usb drivers of my device.
The issue and before sending it back for reparation I want to backup the photos, all the other data is not relevant. The phone is with the fabric ROM. Is there any way that I can recover the data??
Thanks in advance for your support.

I assume is blocked as nothing g has been done to it since the purchase.
That happened to me twice. I was pushing it to recovery, fastboot, safemode for over and hour untill it turned on. It was after update last spring. Never happened again. I cant remember what happened (i know i realized it than, but i was on a business trip and pissed, just remember that prior to that it was a problem with unlocking it/power button/sensor, maybe not the same thing as you have, since it was looping),i think it was some bug
Hi thanks for the reply but I assume is not the same case as I have try to fastboot, safe mode and repair mode a lot of times and nothing happened.
Hope to find a way to get the data from the device.

it may be stuck in some kind of recovery loop because it crashed and think it couldn't boot. like windows does.
try turn it completely off then start it.
I'm sorry if you did not unlock before hand, there is nothing you can do.
flashing rom requires unlocked bootloader. running TWRP requires unlocked bootloader.
flashing stock rom/ recovery rom from SD will I think wipe your data
unlock bootloader will wipe your data.
if you can't get it to boot you are SoL for the data friend :/
Thanks Sir. Seen that there is no option I have wipe all the data and the phone has come back again to normal operation. Now I will try to root to use some data recovery tool to see what I can get. Any recomendations??
