Hello everyone,
i've flashed the newest version of the PhilZ Touch custom recovery and now my note 2 can't find my sim-card...
Custom recovery found @ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2028103
I flashed it from version 4.35 to 4.63 so the custom recovery was installed and working before.
After reboot i didn't had the possibility to unlock my sim-card (entering PIN-code).
Now i have no network connection at al (obviously)
Everything else is (so far) working...
I'm using the rooted stock rom
greetings,
p.s. i would reply in the specific topic but i can't yet.
Try another recovery or phone.

Is it, in any way, possible that a sim-card gets affected when you flash a custom rom?
I'm thinking about this question because my sim-card broke just after flashing without touching it...
(no need to touch your sim-card to flash, but i haven't done anything else where i would have needed to remove/change it)
Its probably just coincidence but it's strange that it just happend after flashing.
(sorry if my english is hard to understand )
greetings from Belgium
ye same problem here, tell me when u found out to get it back so I can use that method =p
I've had no problems after upgrading the recovery.
I would suggest you post in PhilZ's thread. He is very active and will help find out what happened.

Well, i've changed the sim-card (have one for data only...) and that one worked fine...
I tried it in another phone too but i was thinking that it wasn't working because i used an adapter to have a normal sim-card and not the micro-sim format so i did the thing mentioned above...
I decided to sent my parents to a Belgacom support center (one of belgians telecom operators) to ask a new one.
I need to work this weekend and i didn't had the opportunity to go myself, it's stupid to walk with a phone without the ability to call/send messages :silly:...
I just inserted the sim-card my parents got from the center and i've recieved al my missed messages so i know that the new one is working fine.
This is undoubtedly strange that it's possible that a sim-card gets affected/broken when changing/updating custom recovery.
I'm "glad" (if you understand what i mean) that i'm not the only one who is having this problem.
Can someone with experience explain to me and the others what could have been the problem?
Edit: can't post yet in his thread due to too low count of messages
Edit2: i'm sorry that i haven't any easy sollution...
Yours sincerely,
what do you actually get from philz? i can't even feel a butterfly flies in my tummy..
in my opinion, the perseus one is the best choise.

Nothing special?
I don't know why you are asuming that i need to get something from it...
I'm just saying in this thread that there has been a problem with the sim-card after flashing this custom recovery .
So i only wanted to say "Hey, after performing this, that went wrong, how to find a solution"
This has nothing to do with liking a custom recovery.
I'm happy for you that you like the perseus one but this one was aproved by someone to solve another problem (and worked)...
I can't understand the point of your reply in this topic, it has nothing to do with not finding/reading the sim-card
p.s.: my wording may seem wrong but well meaning, my english is not perfect since it is not my native language
ahhh .... the device I was rooting was simlocked, he didn't say anything ffs.. that's why
@op try flashing a stock rom(remove sim card), then factory reset in recovery, then flash philz, then flash w/e u want

Hi there, thanks for the response.
I have installed this Cynogen Mod ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2263963
And also this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1971158, which has recognized the sim card but still cant use my network.
Been reading a few things and now I feel inclined to try sim unlocking it, but dont know very well which road to take:
# Baseband: I suppose no, that handles radio and gps, no?
# Firmware: I think maybe that can work, but not sure, some info link?
# Editing files like build.prop?
# What about permissions?
Is there a way? Some guy has done it here apparently: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1365486, but wasnt kind enough to say how.
Thanks again
Follow this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nRTJ0OG0Hzk&list=UULaB0FBE-vYUKyb8qr35D5A ...it MIGHT work..
It actually worked, I was able to change the firmware more than once, but I was able to chan it to official firwares which actually remains locked, changes only the company of use. Now, I suppose the sim to be locked or not to be will depend of the .kdz file of use. Can recommend one that will do the unlocking? Thanks, you have been very helpful.

Ok, will continue to try some differents roms. Thanks for the links, the roms looks cool. I am just trying to find a certain way to unlock it, maybe there isn't an "unlocked" firmware, maybe itsn't possible. That variant that maybe unlocks it has to have a background. Anyway, the lock code for the IMEI unlock seems to be hackeable somehow, if there is a code to introduce that unlocks it, there is a rainbow table that holds it, no? Will continue trying and update if success. Thanks theprakhar for all the answers, good day gentlemens.

You guys should be using Emergency Recovery in Smart Switch. It goes by serial number so it restores everything specific to that phone. Messing with sboot and efs just screws everything up all the time. There are tools to recover your phones. You should really learn to use these tools correctly before you start flashing things. Phones cost almost $1000 these days and people just frivolously flash whatever they want not fully understanding or reading everything.
I have a post how to do Emergency Recovery here.

But the problem started from them flashing stuff before using the tools correctly. sboot and efs are things that should only be messed with by people that really know what they are doing. The OP could have fixed his problem in the beginning before he decided to mess with them. I only posted my info for them to learn how to fix their phone properly.
Just got a Redmi Note 8 Pro with Global ROM and discovered that call recording won't work due to Google/Android Pie limitations.
After some searching, I found (on this forum) that the Indonesia ROM supports call recording on this phone.
Here are my questions:
1. Will burning a different ROM affect my warranty?
2. Will I lose any functionality by switching from Global to Indonesia ROM, and if so, what? Specifically, will NFC functionality be affected?
3. If I ever do a factory reset, will the phone revert to Global ROM?
4. I found the Indonesia ROM files here. There are three files called Recovery, OTA, and Fastboot. Do I need them all? If so, do they need to be burned in any specific order?
5. Where can I find complete instructions for burning the Indonesia ROM? I am new to Xiaomi, and the last time I burned a ROM to a phone was 5 years ago (Samsung); I don't remember anything, so I'd like instructions that assume nothing and don't skip any steps (instructions for intelligent dummies). I found these instructions for installing TWRP, but there's nothing about what to do next, and there's a list of pre-requisites with no explanations (Unlocked Bootloader, Phone Drivers, ADB and Fastboot Drivers), making the instructions insufficient for a noob like me.
Thanks much.

Hey,
Before going any further you first need to make sure what region is your phone. Is it a Chinese phone (bought from AliExpress for example) or a real Global phone (bought from a local store/official retail). Because you could very well own a Chinese phone shipped with a Global Rom flashed on it and this could result in some problems for you in terms of what you can do with it and how you can do it.
If you bought/received a phone with already unlocked bootloader, you should return it.
Unlocking bootloader should only be done by you when you need it.
1. Technically unlocking bootloader, ESSENTIAL step prior flashing anything, void your warranty.
However and that's what is interesting, if at some point you decide to flash back your original region rom (here Global) and lock back bootloader, none will know but Xiaomi servers you once unlocked this device certainly not a local reseller. So in term of warranty you should be safe, that is of course unless you brick your phone doing stuff you were not supposed to do with a locked bootloader if you are following.
2. If not mistaking, I think you loose NFC. Indian phones for sure do not have NFC at all, for their version, the chip was replaced with a 2nd SIM card tray (not shared). Not sure if you read the functionality afterward using rooted tricks.
3. No that does not work this way. When you are running a Rom, any version, if you factory reset that room, you just return to installation screen of that given Rom.
To return to Global Rom, you will need to reflash that Global Rom using the same method you did successfully flashing the Indonesian Rom (or any other rom) for example.
Would be wise to first download the exact version of the Rom you are currently using on your phone for archives purpose (BURN IT on good quality medias!) to revert back to it when/if needed. You can also archives OTA updates of that version you may not have taken yet to apply them manually if you ever revert back to that Global Rom and want to.
4. Different versions depends on what you are doing. In your case Fastboot version is what you need at the moment. You can find all different kind of versions of Roms for your RN8PRO on that site
As for the way to flash them, order and everything, you will need to look for guides online,
I dont think any order matters, just make sure to flash them all before rebooting disconnecting device. But if you are unsure of what you are doing, you'd be probably best using a tool such as MiFlash.
5. Here you can find one from the MIUI community website guiding you through the use of MiFlash to flash a stock Rom on your device.
Just note you do not have to use any tools to flash the .images of all partitions, you can easily doing it from command line using fastboot flash command one after an other.
Also note that installing TWRP is usually not needed to flash stock Roms (unlike flashing custom roms). Trying to mess up with the recovery partition is actually what seem to brick most of the devices.
However please note UNLOCKING your BOOTLOADER is MENDATORY.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
doesnt matter if you switch to any rom variant .i have switched mine to indonesian ,europe and indian and alll worked fine execpt indian version felt a bit laggy .just download the fastboot version of the rom and flash it through mi flash tool xiaomiflash .your bootloader needs to be unlocked and dont forget to check cleann all button in mi flash and dont check clean and lock
I have got global version and changed imei with unlocked bootloader. Can i flash indonesian rom without lose f my imei?
Thanks in advance for your answers
Muad.Dib,
Thanks for your detailed reply.
If I understand correctly, unlocking the bootloader voids the warranty just the same as rooting the phone, so if all I want is to get call recording, I may as well just root the phone and save the bother of flashing a different ROM.
Does that make sense to you, or do you see any advantage to flashing a different stock ROM instead of just rooting the phone? From past experience I've seen that rooting has additional benefits anyway.
BTW, I bought my phone on Banggood. It was advertised as Global ROM, and that appears to be what it has. As soon as I turned the phone on it updated to MIUI Global 11.0.2.1; I don't know what version it was before the update.

You're welcome, I am happy if I was useful to you in any kind of ways.
Well yes and no. Yes apparently you 'could' achieve call recording when rooted (yet I still fail doing so even if I installed the default MUI apps module I got from Telegram group. The setting to automatic recording is set to on yes, but I dont see recordings in the supposed destination folder nor I can see a simple button to record any voicecall I used to have on older versions of Android. Me failing to make it work - I did not try very hard to be honest - does not mean you cannot find someone who succeeded into doing so in that telegram group for RN8PRO).
That said it would not be a 'native' solution, just a patch/workaround. If it works well great, if not, well...
On an other hand by flashing to a Rom which does support it natively, well you are covered for the use you need.
So the advantage I see (with the included disadvantages) is better support for the function which is not supported for privacy reasons en Glob/EU market.
Does that come at a price?
Probably.
For example are you ready to trade off NFC for native call recording support? That may be a choice you have to make in the end. Again that said, if you root your phone on that new Rom, install NFC drivers manually as root (I see no reasons why that would not be possible after all) you may be able to patch NFC on that other Rom since unlike Indonesians market phone, you do have NFC hardware.
For example, myself, I wish I could have made that kind of bargain/trade off, giving up that NFC feature I have no need for, to get 8GB or Ram + 2x Sims + SD and not an hybrid tray. Unfortunately that's not the kind of trade I could make here in EU unless I would have ordered directly from Amazon.in (assuming that would have been possible) or third party website, but that was not possible for warranty reasons among other things.
Hope this helps.

Yes it does as it is officially available in every variant expect indian variant.
UPDATE:
I finally had the time to test the MIUI-default-apps Magisk module available for download on Telegram group, originally made for MIUI 11.0.1.0, and it works properly on MIUI 11.0.2.0 EEA. Does not require changing Rom.
Hope this helps.
Well, I have finally started the process, but got stymied by the Bootloader Unlock tool (Couldn't unlock. Please unlock 168 hours later.). Quite frustrating. I see that a lot of people have this problem and had to try again more than once, waiting a week between attempts.
Is there a workaround or do I just have to wait a week and hope for the best?
Also, assuming all goes well and I eventually manage to unlock the bootloader and flash the Indonesia ROM, do I use the same tool to re-lock the bootloader (in order to restore the security of the phone)?
And if I want to unlock again in the future, will I again possibly get the "wait and try again next week" message, or does that only happen the first time?
Thanks.

No workaround, you just have to wait (and yes I know how freaking frustrating it was for me...). You can even start meditation classes meanwhile it helps

It depends on what your the flavor of the phone you got. You may want to have a look at that other thread Relock bootloader after flashing ROM Indonesia where we actually covered this exact subject
The good thing about that 7 days wait period is you can gather all the intel you need to be 100% ready when the time come to seriously mess up with things.
So you know, once your bootloader is unlocked, first thing you will want to do BEFORE anything else, is blow off that security which needed Auth Account to unbrick account (ONLY WORKS FOR PIE, ANDROID 9 MIUI VERSION BEWARE).
All information is here: [GUIDE][INFO][PSA] Redmi Note 8 Pro - Megathread

The waiting time is for one time only (THANKS GOD!).
So if you relock, beside having to get your hands on the unlock tool once again and have added the same infos as for the first time in the phone, you will be able to unlock right away.
That's at least a good news
Hope this helps,

Yes of course.
It is a module you can find on the Telegram group called "Redmi Note 8 Pro | OFFICIAL".
Like me you will have to go in there even if you do not use Telegram.
Once there and you got the /notes it is called the default apps.
I cannot share it myself here because I am not the developer of that module, as you can understand that's against forums policies.
All I can tell you is it works correctly on EEA MIUI 11.0.2.0.
Good luck!
Hope this helps.

Thanks man, I got it! ?
I have disovered that there are different NGC protocols and that my Redmi Note 8 Pro does not read NFC cards of some protocols. I'm wondering if it might not be a driver issue. where would I look for NFC drivers?
Thanks
Muad.Dib said:
For example are you ready to trade off NFC for native call recording support? That may be a choice you have to make in the end. Again that said, if you root your phone on that new Rom, install NFC drivers manually as root (I see no reasons why that would not be possible after all) you may be able to patch NFC on that other Rom since unlike Indonesians market phone, you do have NFC hardware.

Sadly I have no idea. I think you should make a new thread about this to get more visibility and probably more answers from people who actually knows the answer.
Hope this help.

UPDATE:
I finally had the time to test the MIUI-default-apps Magisk module available for download on Telegram group, originally made for MIUI 11.0.1.0, and it works properly on MIUI 11.0.2.0 EEA. Does not require changing Rom.
Hope this helps.

Hey,
Sorry was AFK for a while. In case you still need answer, going to reply just in case.
Well there is not much to add, you simply install the module from within Magisk once it installed, you reboot, and it works out of the box, you go in the settings and you set it as you like.
Good luck!
Do i need to root before installing it ?

I flashed my device using the Indian MSM Tool and I am unable to revert back the stock T-Mobile flash using the T-Mo MSM Tool. Now my mobile radio will not enable. I tried flashing multiple T-Mobile modems that are posted on here and that did not fix the issue. So let me summerize.
Can someone guide me to 1) Flashing back to the T-Mobile stock firmware from the IN version, and or 2) Help me get my radios working again. I'd be willing to donate to whoever can help me resolve this issue!
Thanks!
Thanks, unfortunately it didn't work for me. My IMEI, MAC Addresses, and fingerprint functionality is still working. Now it's not recognizing my SIM card at all.
@FizzyAps @craznazn Do yall have any suggestions? Seems yall are the all stars here!

India MSM is known to screw things up and make devices think they are LE2120 instead of whatever it originally was, but at the same time, that's what makes it able to also flash ColorOS over to Oxygen easily...
I remember people solving something like issue on this forum, might need to search extensively.... I haven't had my OP9P for over 6 months now probably, so I can't help much... best of luck!

Is it possible to pop a different sim in to see if it recognizes it? Could be the sim.

I really hate to say this. But I don't think there's no coming back from India os. I did the same thing not once but twice. I called T-Mobile and used my insurance. Only way. Read the topic in this forum bout the India msm tool. Idk if u noticed how much different the India os is from the eu and global os. But if there's away I wanna know also. Cause now the only msm tool your going to be able to use is the India one. But you can update to the a12 one of the color or oxygen I can't remember but ur modem will come on everything will be fine for a few days then it will start messing up again.

I think you're right. I'm going to RMA it with Oneplus.
I thought with my persist, modest1, and modemst2 I could SMT flash it and restore those files but I get a OnePlus write protection using edl and the OEM Unlocking option will not enable in the OS now. Hopefully they warranty repair it. That's my only concern. It's fairly new lol
Sorry I am just going on what that one thread was saying. And my experience I had to make TMobile believe that it was the phone breaking. Be sure to switch it back to the TMobile os. If the msmtool doesn't work fastboot flash it back before u take it back. The 2nd time they went through my phone saw I had the xda app they really started questioning me. I grabbed my phone back and said umm why u looking in my phone privacy dude. You're concern is only with network and data not my apps files and folders. But just save ya some trouble

I'll just flash it clean to where it doesn't even boot lol
Maybe its a bit off topic... but what do we learn about it? NEVER buy a carrier branded device if you want play with root. The lower price is not worth. I learned that over 10yrs ago xD

Yea I learned my lesson
What sucks is I have the modemst1, modemst2, and persist image backups but I cannot unlock it to upload. I am trying to modify the MSM Tool settings.xml to patch the modemst and persist images and I almost had success using the SMT Downloader but I think I don't have the offset bytes set properly to match the partition table.
Try this, worked for me from In back to TMO....

Beg your pardon, I used the Indian MSM to unbrick before I was aware of it changing my TargetID to IN. Now I have to use a modded MSM tool to flash TMO firmware. I use Python3 to extract the .ops file, then open settings.xml, remove the "Target" line at the bottom encrypt back to a .ops file with the name out.ops and then flash that with the MSM tool. Then it will flash the TMO firmware and you are good to go.......
- op6 user - its destroyed now
but as i see that u cant use any other msm but the indian one? right?
i destroyed my op6 system and partations before,
OnePlus Agency, tried to fix it but no luck, i fixed it by msm but not the normal one
if 9pro msm is the same as op6 so you should do this
first, take twrp backup of EFS and MODEM partations and VENDOR ( idk if vendor is important but for precaution )
take another backup of EFC and MODEM by any root apps for precaution too
use the t-mobile msm flashtool and press on verify
the SMT mode should be able to use now
go to options, turn on the COM box or whatever
start flashing with SMT, but i think its high risk bc idk what error you get by normal flashing
keep in mind that SMT Mode will reFlash all known partations and hidden, hidden like MODEM, EFS, etc
my story with this is long, but funny for me, and big lesson..
thx for allah
@ripclap
edit: forget to tell that u have to restore the EFS backup, u should root t-mobile version or idk if u can restore it with some apps without root i dont remember
with op6 old firmware there is something called nvBackupUI it allow us to backup EFS and Restore it by one file
i know this maybe too old now but it may help
edit2:
some links about backup and restore EFS
1- https://community.oneplus.com/thread?id=278167
2- https://www.getdroidtips.com/how-to-backup-or-restore-qcn-efs-on-qualcomm-devices/
3- https://www.droidthunder.com/how-to-backup-efs-imei-on-android-phones/
ALL of this is for SMT Mode, because it may clear the EFS partation and Root is needed to restore it, idk if there is non root method, do ur own search
