Xiaomi Mi MIX 2S (polaris)
Opened this issue · 27 comments
Hello everyone, I bought a Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S specifically to install Nethunter Pro. Since the device is new, I followed all the instructions:
Install on EMMC (fastboot method):
Boot your device into fastboot and run the following commands:
unxz kali_phosh_sdm845_YYYYMMDD.img.xz
fastboot flash userdata kali_phosh_sdm845_YYYYMMDD.img
fastboot flash boot boot-{model}.img
fastboot erase dtbo # if your device has AB partitions
The problem is that now the phone no longer boots in any way.
I thank anyone who can help me.
I'm sending the terminal screenshot and a video of the phone's boot:

Hi @geckosit,
Can you try mobian, check if it works or not.
Thank you very much, @Shubhamvis98. I tried with Mobian but I still encountered issues. I'm attaching the photos and screenshots:
In the above screenshot, it's missing fw issue. It can be fixed using droid-juicer or you can repack the boot.img with firmwares and flash.
And if mobian is working then I don't think there should be any issue with Kali Phosh.
Thank you @Shubhamvis98 for the time you're giving me. Can you help me with these steps?
You can go through droid-juicer config file. Then copy all the split files from android partitions and use pilsquasher to merge the split files into mbn.
Thank you, @Shubhamvis98 . I installed version 2024.3 20240822 and now it works, although with several issues. The most important ones are that the Wi-Fi doesn't work and the USB-C doesn't detect any peripherals (Memory, external Wi-Fi, and Ethernet). Can you help me?

Thank you, Can you help me?
你可以通过droid-juicer配置文件，然后从android分区复制所有的分割文件，并使用pilsquasher将分割文件合并到mbn中。
mix2s，wifi no work
How to solve it
谢谢，你能帮我吗？
have you solved the wifi problem of mix2s? If so, please help me
I haven't solved the Wi-Fi problem for the Mi Mix 2S yet.
Hi @Shubhamvis98 , may I know how to create config.tmol for mix2s? My mix2s in TWRP, It said Kind : NotFound, "Unable to detect device"
I tried to backup the firmware from TWRP and able to extract it. However, I don't know how to repack into boot.img. Please help. Tks.
@Shubhamvis98 Thank you for your reply. There are 40 *.mbn file after running pilsquasher, is it normal? Also, where is the location for replacing on ramdisk? ramdisk/lib/firmware or ramdisk/lib/firmware/qcom?
I tried to repack the boot image but the new image if I include all *.mbn will be 99M which is larger than the 64M original boot partition. Am I missing something? Tks.
Do not include all mbn files, include only necessary ones. Check the dts or droid-juicer config file of your device. You'll get the name of required mbn files and the paths.
@Shubhamvis98 Thank you for your reply, I try to follow the adroid-juicer polaris template, find all the files by mounting the partition dump and put them under ramdisk directory and build a boot.img. Unfortunately, the bootup screen is black and can't see any console message.
My min2s is China 6GB ram version which doesn't have modem partition, is it the cause of black? How to get rid of it? Thanks!
do you see the console logs at booting? the simplefb should work before GUI/Phosh.
No, nothing, just blank

The newest boot img cannot work .the screen keep black just like the screen device not be started or the same situation can be find when the system didn't found i don't know which problem it is right now . But I can sure the system is booting because it auto restarted once when screen black out.

If you fix it ,i can help to test new img.
Send your dmesg log here. Reboot your device, put the dmesg log in a text file and upload here. Also put other details like kernel version and loaded modules as well.
Ho appena caricato il boot.img di Polaris.
Qualcuno può provarlo e farmi sapere se il problema del Wi-Fi persiste?
https://github.com/Shubhamvis98/kali-pinephone/releases/tag/20241104L'immagine di avvio più recente non può funzionare. Lo schermo rimane nero proprio come il dispositivo dello schermo non si avvia o la stessa situazione può essere trovata quando il sistema non ha trovato. Non so quale sia il problema in questo momento. Ma posso essere sicuro che il sistema si sta avviando perché si è riavviato automaticamente una volta quando lo schermo si è oscurato.
Per me le versioni valide sono la 20240822 e la 20240810, entrambe possono essere avviate nel sistema ma non riescono ad aprire il Wi-Fi.
Any progress? I'm blocked with the same issues on Polaris
