    Post Nokia 8 official Firmware June 2018 Oreo [ V4.88B_B04]

    OK let's stop it. Anyhow, it was you who started the conflict with an offensive reply ,if you read #232 and #233 again. I am not native English speaker so I won't feel insulted if someone complains of my poor English. I complained about your English because it seemed that you didn't understand...

    Post Nokia 8 official Firmware June 2018 Oreo [ V4.88B_B04]

    1. For the OST LA error message (in version 6.0.4), this thread is not about OST LA version 6.0.4 so I gave my feed back about the error code in the corresponding thread (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=77970981&postcount=6), it is not a logical choice to avoid confusion? and for...

    Sorry but I want to stop this no-sense discussion. I suggest you to read our conversation again. In fact I really wonder if you can read English without problem. (Personally, If I didn't understand what a post says, normally I read it again and again to comprehend before replying to it) P.S...

    Please give some examples of the "many many times", better in the Nokia 8 board? Knowing a little technique does not mean that you have the right to accuse the others who didn't know it, I supposed.

    Post Nokia 8 official Firmware June 2018 Oreo [ V4.88B_B04]

    Certainly... I was not that stupid :crying: Finally rooted by using "fastboot flash boot [pre-rooted img]" on slot A (with september SP) other than "fastboot boot". A direct flashing to the boot partition worked but the simulation no, it was strange.:confused:

    Sorry you are right all the methods need unlocked bootloader. I just bought this nokia 8. Based on the experiences on other phones I thought bootloader=recovery and I just got to know that boot partition is also in the concept of "bootloader". And it seems that nokia 8 does not have a...
