Restoring system data with TB can lead to issues, so restoring user data is mostly the only thing useful to my experience..

And kingroot is definitely permanent, except you choose unroot option for within KR app.. It writes its su binaries to the system

Google search glitches and deletes inputted text.

When I first got my Moto G4 plus, it had no problems. It worked perfectly. Then, after a bit a strange and immensely annoying thing started happening. I've since begun using the Moto Z Play Droid (6.0.1) and it has the same problem. It should be noted that I use Nova Launcher.

When I hold down the app drawer icon to initiate a google search, I start typing in my search terms (the problem works on voice input too) and after a second or two the search bar glitches and deletes all my text. It does it so quickly I rarely get in my full search term and hit search before it glitches. This happens almost every time I try to do a google search in this manner, which is my preferred manner. It is excruciating. What is happening and how can I fix it?

Block devices

My phone has the following block devices:

mmcblk0,mmcblk0boot0,mmcblk0boot1,mmcblk0p1,mmcblk0p2,.......,mmcblk0p7.

After reading alot of online articles, here is what i understand:

block mmcblk0 is the entire device and mmcblk0p1,....,mmcblk0p7 are the partitions of mmcblk0.

What i didn't get are block devices mmcblk0boot0 and mmcblk0boot1. Whether they are also partitions on the same block device mmcblk0 or are separate physical drive on the motherboard.

Can anybody explain in detail?
[General Questions and Answers] Ashwinrg:
Install Diskinfo app from play store. Open app and go to setting. Check all options and back. You get all partitions name with their sizes.

mmcblk0boot0 or mmcblk0boot1 is a emmc partitions. emmc is a your internal storage.
[General Questions and Answers] rajesh00:
sorry, but i can't do that. My phone is dead. That's why i am asking this. I erased the block device mmcblk0 and wanted to know if wiping mmcblk0 also wipes mmcblk0boot1 which would be true if mmcblk0boot1 is a partition on mmcblk0. If i got what you mentioned right,

mmcblk0boot0 and mmcblk0boot1 are primary partitions on the internal storage(internal storage being reffered to the internal nand not the storage available to user for storing media files) and mmcblk0 the extended partition with logical partitions mmcblk0p1,......,mmcblk0p7 in it.

If all above is right, then preloader in mmcblk0boot1 can still be used to revive my device.

Correct me if i'm wrong?

sprint note 7 user here. i was hanging onto my note 7 for dear life lol, but the final update to prevent it from charging forced me to return it. i was looking at a few phones, honor 8, one plus 3t, and the axon 7 but all of these phones (i think?) are gsm and they don't work with sprint? sorry I've been doing some research the last hour or so to try and figure out why no phones are compatible on sprint and safe to say that i don't really understand it that well.

Driver types

I searched for my phone driver and found 3 drivers available i.e.

1)cdc driver

2)vcom driver

3)adb driver

adb driver for normal connection and the other two for flashing stock firmware.

AFAIK, adb driver communicates with the kernel and works in normal boot condition(android) and in recovery.

What about the first two drivers?

If they are for the same purpose, what's the difference between them?

Can somebody guide me on this?

Hello, been a while since I posted here. I'm running CyanogenMod 10.2 on a HTC ego 4g Ltd (jewel). Unfortunately, its become very unstable, and acting funny. So, I thought I'd wipe it, and start over with cm11. This is possibly a dumb question, but are the snapshots complete ROMs, or just updates? When I go to install the snapshot from twrp do I just install the latest one, or do I have to install them all in order? I have the latest snapshot and the micro gapps for kitkat 4.4.4 on my external SD card ready to go.

Hello i am using a samsung galaxy ace s5830i. I had recently bricked my phone. I got it repaired from the samsung store. But since the time i have got my phone repaired i can't open xda website in my browser and so i hunted a lot for this app "XDA for android 2.3" as i was not able to download anything from the play store. I am also not able to download any of the attachments from this app due to some unknown i have failed to figure out. I wanted to flash a custom recovery and after that a custom rom so i wanted a file directly from xda and nowhere else as i didn't want to risk my phone into bricking again. So please help me find a way.

Things i have already tried for opening xda website:-

1. Using a different browser( uc browser mini)

2. Setting up a vpn

But none of these has worked in my favour

Thanks a lot

Hi friends, i have a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 (GT-N7100), which got turned off suddenly after an official software update recently. when i tried to restart it was struck at logo display, i tried recovery mode and it says cannot mount and cannot recover, tried wiping out cache, tried factory reset but it didnt work. Then in download mode I tried flashing custom rom, official firmware downloaded from sammobile, through different versions of odin but none of them worked. suddenly my phone got turned off completely, not even logo display, when i connect charger it is not charging, charging led is not lit., nor any charging symbol on display. i checked my battery in another device it still have 90% of charge. and i checked my charge also it is working fine. now my question is can a software ( firmware) only problem causes this situation believing that there is no hardware issue. if so please suggest me how to recover assuming there is no hardware issue.

You hard bricked your device. It seems to me that one of the things you flashed was not made for your model number.

You might be able to use a debrick.img for your model number to get your device to boot but that isn't guaranteed. You can also try sending it in for JTAG service. You can find shops that do JTAG with a google search.

I have encrypted my SD Card as Internal Storage and now I want to know how to decrypt it. In my TWRP 3.0.2-8 at Advanced Wipe, it shows that there is Internal Storage and SanDisk sd card - Adopted Storage on my device. So should I just wipe the SanDisk sd card - Adopted Storage to decrypt my SD Card? I only have this 16 GB SD Card to rely on in my backups...

When installing Xposed framework or activating modules or activating Ad Away in an Encrypted Device, does it break encryption functionality? Because after using Ad Away and rebooted, I noticed that there are no more password prompts during boot or when accessing Recovery. I also can't change the Lockscreen Method in Settings as it won't accept my password for password confirmation.

Edit: It's actually Greenify's Accesibility that stopped the prompting of password during boot. I'll go ask another forum site for my first question since this Q&A thread is unreliable!

Samsung Galaxy s6 edge plus storage issue.

Hello, I have a Samsung Galaxy s6 edge + which used to show 32gb until i decided to root my phone. and after a while i flashed rom stock and it shows 16gb as maximum storage.

Model Number = SM-G928C

Baseband Version =G928FXXU3BPI9

Build Number = MMB29K. G928CXXS3BPL3

I reflashed the rom stock again today (from Sammobile and using odin3 3.12 - Saudi Arabia version as for my model it only shows middle east ones (bought this phone from Madina)).

Although i flashed it with Iran and first and Saudi version again, it did not fix this issue.

I searched the forum about this issue and there was someone who posted in july 2016 with same issue. but sadly it did not have any reply.

Hoping someone can give some insight as 5gb to store photos/videos is nearly not enough :/

Thank you very much.

Let me know if i am missing any more information.
[General Questions and Answers] tys0n:
Was it a 4-file firmware or single one?

Any way, my guess is that the firmware package contained a pit file for 16gb model which will then format the storage to 16gb. You'll probably have to find a 32gb pit and reflash with a firmware without pit inside, or find package for 32gb model.

Skickat från min SM-A310F
[General Questions and Answers] shairaf:
The first one (IRAN) version we used had 4 files. but cousin brother mentioned only AP was required, so for that i used only AP. that was when it started showing as 16gb. i still have those files.

The second one (SAUDI) version i used 2 hours ago was only 1 file and it flashed correctly without a problem (did not remove any programs, files or anything while iran version did remove all).

Thats the part where i get kind of confused. i only know about Sammobile and i used both files from there. i do not know where to find package for 32gb model as i am not used to these things. sorry if it came out very noobish hehe. If possible i was hoping someone could direct me to the correct page if there is one.

I was also wondering if i reflash the phone with IRAN version but with all the files activated in odin 3 3.12 this time, would that possibly fix the issue?

Thank you very much

Are you rooted? Custom ROMs don't ask for the unlock code and you have to do it yourself through the dialer. If you're on stock, it's odd that it didn't ask, but you have to do it through the dialer as well with #0111*CODE#. If that doesn't work, try #0133*CODE#.

He already got the correct answer, his ROM that he flashed was for a 16GB device, when he flashed it on his 32GB device, it converted it to be 16GB based on the software flashed on it.
[General Questions and Answers] shairaf:
Hi, thank you for your response :)

The problem started happening after i unrooted my s6 edge plus by flashing an IRAN version which had 4 files. but we used only 1 file (AP one).

I checked my phone storage and it shows maximum storage as 16gb rather than 32gb which used to show before.

Things i have tried to do afterwards is using Saudi latest rom to flash the phone (did not work - fixed the VR issue of Network Error)

Tried Pakinstan rom with a PIT file provided by callumbr1 who is helping me through this in another thread. (sadly it was the same result)

Now trying his fix for Saudi (STC) file from Sammobile (sadly each try take few hours as it gives really slow speed for me).

Thank you for your time :)

Thank you :) and indeed i got the correct answer now. but i have not been able to fix the issue by flashing different roms guided by other members. Right now i am attempting Saudi (STC) version for samsung galaxy s6 edge plus as callumbr1 mentioned.

[General Questions and Answers] tys0n:
I still find it strange that it changed after flashing only AP package. The pit (as I recall it) is supposed to be inside the CSC-package on 4-file firmware.
