Lost Widevine L1 Certification After flashing EU ROM - Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question

Hey guys,
So i was messing around with ROMS,
Like EVOx, EU roms and suddenly after flashing latest EU rom i lost L1 cert,
I tried flashing stock rom, PE, Evo, etc still no luck,
It seems i cant get my L1 cert again.
If you have any idea how to get it back please share.
I would really appreciate it.
Watching Netflix in 480p sucks.

from what I know L1 cert is unique for every phone. You must use the one who came with your phone. its in persist.img that I hope you backed up before flashing EU rom. If you don't, you'll have to get used to 480p. Sometimes some developer publish a fix for very specific devices, not our case tho.

Is there an app or something to check what L-status my mobile has?

Thanks for the link!
Have tested it, my mobile is on L1.
On my mobile there is the XIAOMI EU ROM.
So it seems it's not ROM related...? ?

Same here.
L1 maintained from stock to xiaomi.eu 11.0.2 to xiaomi.eu 11.0.4.

i did not backed that up.
Need some other solution

How have you flashed the EU ROM?
With TWRP? Fastboot? Or with the inbuilt Updater?

TWRP, but the issue is that i cant even get L1 on Stock ROM now. :/

Well okay, have read a bit through the net.
Seems like the only way would be if you have a backup of the Persist Partition of exactly YOUR device.
Seems like you have overwritten this partition while flashing.

This information would have been good to know in ROM install guides before flashing >.>

I have seen other devices able to get back L1.
Does getting the device to mi service center will help?

I guess best way to get a 100% answer is to write a mail to the service center.
Or perhaps you could ask the people who were able to "repair" their phones and got L1 back ?

I am 100% sure service center people in my city will discard the request as i am pretty sure they don't care enough about it.
I wonder how i can contact someone who will be able to help me out.

Thanks for the info but i saw some posts and they all seems to point to mifash tool,
Which i already used to flash stock rom but no luck.
Should i try clean+lock?

I had read that if you loose L1 you can't fix it it unique for every phone. You should have done a backup in your persist partition before flashing and testing.
L1 is like the IMEI?

Actually even when not flashing, i myself lost l1 while locked bootloader. It happens after updating my phone to 11.0.8.0.
Many of my fellow countryment experienced also this. The weird thing is that there are some who does not experience this problem. There are others where widevine L1 is preserve on stock rom OTA update and there are some like me who lost it. This has been acknowledged by devs and Xiaomi mods. And still waiting for a fix. So for me i think it is not eu rom related

I lost it when I tried to update from 0.7 to 0.8 EU
Can you suggest a way to get it back sir?

That's really confusing.
I first updated my EEA Version with the inbuilt Updater to 11.0.3 and L1 was still present, and then after nearly 14 days I unlocked my bootloader and flashed the XIAOMI EU Custom ROM, version 11.0.9 and still got L1.
Is your mobile on Global ROM (with MI in the title) or on EEA (with EU in the title)?
It's strange cause I'm sure there are maaany users out there who have updated their device at least once, and the problem of the change from L1 to L3 seems not to be wide spreaded one, when reading through the different boards.
Most people are complaining about the wifi bug mainly... ?

What means when you TRIED to update?
Was your update successfull or any problems with it?
Well, some ideas of ways to get L1 back we're already given here, but seems like there is no "easy way" to do so...

Redmi Note 4 SD India Version Bricked after updating to MIUI9

Hi All,
So after searching all the threads and forums I have created this thread to address this issue and to get possible solutions.
I have a Redmi Note 4 - Snapdragon/Qualcomm variant 4GB/64GB version.
Bootloader Status: Unlocked.
OS Version: MIUI 8, 7.4.20 Developer Version.
So sometime back I tried to upgrade to the latest Version of MIUI9 7.9.15. When the system got updated and rebooted my phone got softbricked. SS below. I was on one of the Custom ROMs AEX and tried updating the firmware of MIUI9 and faced the same issue. However am able to come out of the brick using MiFlash tool am still not sure what's causing the issue.
NOTE: Even after reverting back I see the weird lines on screen unless I flash the previous firmware version again.
Would appreciate your thoughts and inputs. Thanks!

Have you tried a full wipe and fresh install of the developer ROM, if that's the one you want?

Thanks for the suggestion but like I mentioned few posts earlier I did try flashing the Stable build fastboot version - v 8.5.4.0 and the same thing happened. So got me thinking issue seems not to be confined with MIUI9 but something which am not able to figure out.

firmware?
If the recovery does the same then its not the rom as this loads before the rom

Pretty sure firmware is closely associated to Bootloader, Boot and Recovery much more than the ROM itself. Then the Signal reception, radio and stuff. But I may be wrong.

android 9 in canada?

Not sure why Canadians have a different version since the US is the same as ROW (except JP). Oh well... Anyhow, expect updates to start being pushed from the 6th all the way to the 14th. After that, nothing will happen till January. But judging from the average time it seems you belong to the week 2 category (10-14th).
I couldn't wait for it so I flashed the US firmware since I don't care for the fingerprint reader

flashing a sony phone is different to that of samsung. You have to backup drm key(ta partition) before you even unlock your bootloader, because without that you camera will become useless. I cant give you links but I am sure if you look around you will find them. After unlocking your bootloader it is very simple. Just flash a kernel and the rom that you want to.
The application we use for flashing kernels for sony phones is flashtool. Just make sure you have the right kernels and files before flashing.
Goodluck.
My bootloader is unlocked already I just can't find a rom that will work for an xz1 can you give me a hint on what exactly to search. There is no support for the xz1 and as for backing up the drm key where is that found?

Yup there isn't really much or any support at all for Sony phones nowadays. I didn't find any good custom ROMs so sorry I wouldn't be the right person to advice you. And as for DRM keys. Once you unlock it. It's gone. I heard they have introduced some fixes or something. I don't know.
Need help
Can you give me guidance on how to with out braking my phone
As soon as you said you had 8.1 on your phone I knew this would be an interesting read.. Not sure how long ago you. unlocked your BL but once you did it you lost your DRM keys, though if you had read a bit you would have realized that.. there is a DRM fix for oreo (8.0), Pie is debatable as the camera appears to work without one but a few other thing appears to be missing related to video and sound enhancements without a DRM fix.. Now as far as flashing go it's time for you to do your homework as there are a few guidelines for using Flashtool and Newsflasher.. no disrespect here but hunt them down and read through them before you do anything else to your phone..

Auto-rotate stopped working

Hi,
I've noticed the issue and it started to annoy me
When I get the phone to landscape position it does not auto-rotate.
It was working previously, but I don't know when exactly it stopped and what could cause it.
I have tried to restart the phone, to wipe the cache partition, to restore factory settings - nothing helped.
Is this known issue or should I ask for service and hardware repair?
It's happening with my Huawei P20 Lite ANE-LX1 8.0.0.146(C461).

Until now it's just you who reported the issue here, a few questions before you go for service repair:
Since when do you have your phone?
Did it fell sometimes?
Are you using a custom ROM or the original one from Huawei?
And of course I had to ask even though it's obvious, do you have auto-rotate option ON or OFF?
Cheers,

Let's answer one by one
I've purchased it brand new one month ago (9-Nov-18).
It never fell nor bumped hard.
I'm using original Huawei ROM.
Auto-rotate is ON, of course

Good morning
I have some news for you, there is a current problem with also a person with problems on the compass (sensor for rotation) @Rondrey, and I can see your versions are the same.
So before you guys send your phone to warranty I suggest the following:
Either downgrade to the previous version of the EMUI or wait for another update from OTA.
To install or downgrade official software please look into this thread/guide by @kilroystyx:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p20-lite/how-to/rom-official-emui-8-0-huawei-p20-lite-t3773999
So either you guys wait for the latest update 8.0.0.147 on build C461 of your country and see if it fixes it or downgrade to 8.0.0.145 or 8.0.0.144 using a dload package (step 7 of the guide of kilroystyx).
Kindly,
AS

Should be fixable by software, it's Huawei's fault obviously altough right now, the only thing you can do to make it work is either having a custom ROM to see if works alright which it should if it doesn't try custom kernels and check if it works out
Else you need to downgrade to a version which was working before.

i messed up. im stuck on fastboot (bootloader) mode. everytime i choose recovery mode or start, it vibrates and restarts 4 or 5 times only upto the S logo, before going back to fastboot mode again.
"fastboot boot twrp-3.2.3-0-blackshark.img" didnt work for me. it just starts my phone normally. so i tried "fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.2.3-0-blackshark.img" and got error.
need help pls.
edit: im still reading the whole thread and learning of flashing my bs from skr-a0 to skr-h0. i hope ill succeed from the files and procedures im getting at this link: youtube.com/watch?v=ywC_9Hrpb_I
edit2: was successful in flashing to skr-h0 using flash_all.bat (not brick anymore yay! it gave me the chills really.) sending "fastboot boot twrp-3.2.3-0-blackshark.img" command also now loads me to twrp (thank heavens) but i need to system update OTA first before trying to root again. will update soon.
edit3: now enjoying root on android 8.1... found the hard way that twrp-3.2.3-0-blackshark.img is not for android 9 and wont boot to twrp. probably flashed back to 8.1 for like 5 times more or less. hope maurino or someone else will make and release twrp-3.2.3-1-blackshark.img soon. thanks again for this wonderful thread.
btw: i originally wanted skr-a0 but i cant seem to download the link in the youtube video. file is corrupted. is it just me? i tried on 3 different workstations to no avail.

I haven't had any issues with the pie update. TWRP currently doesn't work, but the source files on GitHub have been updated I believe. TWRP needs to be available for rooting.

Global or EU?

I just bought recently MI A3 2 days ago and upon unboxing , I instantly updated it to android 10. Then I suddenly noticed on my official receipt that it is a MI A3 EU... But here is my current rom and it came from OTA. MI meaning it is global. The store is an official MI Store here in the Philippines. In the box it has EU label also next to MI A3 label. Am i global or EU? Planning to unlock and flash stock pie and relock
You are definitely in Global ROM, as the Android 10 EU ROM haven't rolled out yet. Also, there are no practical differences between one rom or another, more than EU policies and stuff like that.

Well actually just concern with warranty
Do not downgrade Android version after you successfully installed Android 10. There are user reports and also Xiaomi confirms that it makes permanent changes to some partitions and your phone won't work correctly after the downgrade.

Ok. When i had chat with Xiaomi chat support. Technician told me that it is safe to downgrade android version. There will be no issues provided i perform factory reset.

Official warning: https://c.mi.com/thread-2918723-1-0.html
I can't find the report on mi forum, but I recall that it was non functional WiFi and maybe some other things. Most probably related to persist partition.
There is no other option how to rollback than to use Fastboot, so yes, even if you use Fastboot you're risking non functional phone.
I don't know about stock 9 rom, but after I flashed the offical Android 10 rom, I went back to miui (which is Android 9) and my phone is working perfectly fine.
