...
Please help me out.
(19-03-2019, 05:18 PM)gonkins Wow. Thanks it worked. Now I have a bigger problem.
After rooting my WIFI, BLUETOOTH doesn't switch on. Also I can't play music from any of my media players but sound works. Please give me a fix
(19-03-2019, 06:18 PM)gonkins Did system test and Bluetooth /wireless and GPS failed.
If I reinstall the stock boot.img will I still have root?
(22-03-2019, 11:00 AM)gonkins Well, I did it. Here's the fix.
The boot.img I patched is from the stock rom and the boot.img on the phone was from ota update.
So both has a lil difference in size.
Been that the phone was already rooted. I just found a way to locate any folder containing system update. The folder usually has .fota at the end.
It's usually found at.. data/data. Using rom toolbox file manager
So I copied the entire update.zip to my pc, extracted it and located boot.img.
Just to get a clean installation I did a full flash using sp flash tool.
Then got the zip I backed up on my pc and copied it to an sd card. Inserted it to my phone and boot into recovery mode. Normal stock recovery is what I used not twrp, located the update.zip then installed. Took 8 to 10mins. Then I boot my phone to check if fota was successfully installed. Yes it was.
So I got magisk and patched the boot.img I got from the update.zip.
Did the normal procedure of unlocking bootloader and followed the procedure to flash patched_boot.img.
Booted, now my phone rooted and is silky smooth. All things work. WiFi, Bluetooth, fm radio. So I believe this is a fix for the boot.img error alot of people have been experiencing.
Now I need a good imei writing technique for prep. My current imei isn't for my phone.
