[General Questions and Answers] HidingNemo420:
have u asked ur own device's Q&A forum about this? every device has their own problems/bugs and we wont know what caused this problem because we dont know what u did or where to start diagnosing the problem.

how did u go back to stock? u used Restore option in twrp through Backup? did u do a clean install like wiping system, data, dalvik/art cache, cache? have u read what could be bugs with twrp? u sure u followed all requirements correctly and flashed the correct stuff?

all i could give u are common answers like "you might have done something wrong when reverting to stock or your twrp has problems/bugs with stock"?

phone is aging but it shouldn't be the problem unless the aging phone affected eMMC Memory. symptoms of faulty emmc are like uninstalled apps and deleted files are back after a reboot or formating the storage doesn’t work (after reboot the old rom and apps are back) or you can flash whatever you like via Odin - it shows “passed” but after reboot nothing changed (e.g. still no StockRom or still the old Recovery you had previously installed)

i read on ur other posts that u did not root the device.. so try to trace back ur steps of what u did or installed before this happened and uninstall them if u think those apps created this issue or undo what you did.. OR just do the easy way, "Factory Reset" and start your phone clean like new.. backup your important files before u factory reset.

The problem occurred when i install "external to internal" app. I succeeded in making my sdcard as my internal but the battery seems to be the cons of it, so i uninstalled the said app and try to restore my phone but when i go to my custom recovery, it said "power button reset or unknown upload" something like that.
[General Questions and Answers] HidingNemo420:
are u having that "power button reset or unknown upload" in twrp? or u cant access twrp and you only see "power button reset or unknown upload"... does ur phone originally have locked bootloader? because going back to stock will lock again the bootloader, unless ur phone came with an Unlocked Bootloader.

havent encountered yet this problem but try those in the vidz or do a Google search for "power button reset or unknown upload".. always do a complete research
[General Questions and Answers] Kids in Love:
I just press the hardware buttons but not too long and now i can access my twrp, just for the sake of my curiosity, i tried again the usual pressing of the buttons and the problem occurs again, and I'd do again the pressing a bit fast and i can still access my twrp..

What should be the cause of it?!
[General Questions and Answers] HidingNemo420:
idk but just my insights/opinion/guess, perhaps a partition of the phone got corrupted that's why "power reset or unknown upload" occurs or if when that phone is at stock rom it doesnt fully accept foreign elements like twrp... and the intervals of pressing the hardware buttons to access recovery could be a planned attempt by samsung to give absolute and critical warnings while still able to go in recovery mode, rather than a coincidental bug or it only gets enabled at the later half of booting because that could be the time it loads and needs the key combos to be present during that time??... :silly:

Missing settings to mirror navbar buttons after flashing with stock MIUI

Hello and thank you for taking the time to help me.

I wanted to root my Xiaomi Redmi 5 Plus and did that successfully but it required me to format and reinstall because TWRP reported that the fileststem was encrypted and needed a password.

Now I do not have the option of mirroring the navbar buttons, the setting is simply gone! It is simply not there anymore in:

System & Device -> Additional settings -> Button and gesture shortcuts

Please tell me if there is a way to get these settings visible again or how to get to an MIUI configuration file to just manually edit and put the preference in. I am guessing there is surely a way to do that, I just don't know what file(s) to edit.

Used:

TWRP 3.2.1-0

MIUI V9.5.4.0.NEGMIFA directly from MIUI website

One-click Rooter from XDA forums

SuperSU as rooting method

[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
I think what is going on is that the ultra battery saving mode probably kills all apps and operations that would usually be held in your recent menu(the square button). If this is so, when you tap the square button, there are no recent apps or operations to display in the recent menu, causing a glitch because it can't find what it is looking for. It would seem to be an unexpected but normal behaviour considering the circumstances, no big deal in my opinion. From this point on, just remember that tapping the recents button won't do you any good while using ultra battery saving mode because there are no retained activities held in cache/queue.

Flashing Firmware

Ive looked everywhere but can't seem to find an answer to this. Im using a carrier unlocked GS8 (international version) on Straight Talk. Prior to this, I had a Verizon branded GS7. I know Straight Talk uses all 4 major carriers networks but Verizon seems to have the best coverage in my area. I was wondering if flashing the Verizon GS8 firmware would have my phone connect to Verizons towers by default. Anyone?

[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
I doubt flashing a firmware is going to change which towers you're running on. You can do things like switching from one carrier/network to another but I don't think you can control which actual towers that you run on with the carrier that you have, that is more than likely controlled by your service provider on their end.

gs4

Hey, guys.

I'm trying to unlock my friend's Galaxy S4 (metro pcs) and I'm wondering where to look because looking up the phone here on XDA shows only Sprint, Verizon, T-Mobile. But, no MetroPCS. The device model on her phone is SPH-L720T.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks,

C
[General Questions and Answers] scorpio76r:
Best bet is to stick to the Tmobile threads
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
The MetroPCS S4 uses the Sprint S4 stuff here, the unlock method is probably gonna be similar. I believe you have the tri-band model.
[General Questions and Answers] BobbyGenerik:
Thank you. I really appreciate the response. I guess I worded that wrong. I suppose Im not concerned with specific towers, but rather, which carrier/network it is connecting to. Verizon has much better coverage in my area and I was hoping that flashing the firmware might make the device connect to Verizons network as opposed to the other networks that straight talk uses.
[General Questions and Answers] zelendel:
That is dependant on the sim card you use. IF you want it to connect to those then you will need to use the verizon sim.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
I don't think you understood what I was saying. As you obviously understand, StraightTalk uses other carriers networks(each carrier network has it's own towers, this is what I meant when I said "which towers you use").

For example, if you have a device that is StraightTalk but uses the AT&T network, you can not flash a Verizon firmware to make the device use the Verizon network/towers. Did that make sense this time?

Which StraightTalk device model number do you have? Is it a GSM device or a CDMA device? If it's GSM, you can't use Verizon because Verizon is CDMA network.

You can try using the different SIM cards that Straight Talk offers, that is what controls which network/towers you are on.
[General Questions and Answers] BobbyGenerik:
That's actually very helpful. Thanks so much.

---------- Post added at 04:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:38 PM ----------

Oh ok. I understand. Im using a carrier unlocked Galaxy S8 direct from samsung. I figured since all LTE devices used GSM technology, I might be able to use Verizons network.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
I think I've seen some Verizon devices used in GSM mode but I'm not sure. I'm not sure you can use a GSM device on a CDMA network, I could be wrong though.

[MENTION=9131720]BobbyGenerik[/MENTION], I just wanted to add to what [MENTION=5691352]Droidriven[/MENTION] had mentioned...

If you look at the following side-by-side Device Comparison between the G950F (Global) and the G950V (Verizon)...

https://m.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=8161&idPhone2=8161#g950f,g950v

... they both do reflect (what i had verified for all the variants) that they do use the "GSM / HSPA / LTE" technology BUT, if you look at one 2G Bands, you'll see that the Verizon Variant has an additional "CDMA2000 1xEV-DO" band.

Besides that, I don't see any other discrepancies with any of the other bands listed and, in fact, the Global Variant does have a broader band coverage in the other brands than its Verizon counterpart.

The compatibility is theoretically there but, it's up to you regarding the actual ability to do this. This is why I had provided all those links to help you to not only locate but, where to ask for guidance from those members who has more, device specific, experience.

Good Luck!!! :thumbup:

Help with rooted Samsung S6 that gets stuck on bootloop after factory reset with TWRP

I am a complete tech noob who thought I was being smart with factory reset.

I have a Samsung S6 G920i. It is rooted with TWRP and I had Magisk Manager 14.0 running. (I may have set this up wrong in the first place though?) It was turning to complete **** so I thought I would factory reset through TWRP.

I made a full backup with TWRP and also some particular app backups with Titanium Backup.

I then did the factory wipe on TWRP but the phone is stuck in the bootloop when I tried to reboot.

As a solution, I have then reflashed the latest version of TWRP through Odin. I have tried reinstalling the latest versions of Magisk and SuperSu too. It is still stuck in the bootloop!

Can anyone please help I really have zero idea what I'm doing I just looked through various forums, hoped for the best and failed :( Weirdly my phone still seems to have a whole lot of stuff I thought the factory reset would have deleted too....

Step by step instructions would be ideal!

I don't have this device but, after performing a quick search to help you out, i bumped into your same exact question you had made today.

You had posted this question within 2 threads and even created a new thread for this specific issue and you didn't even give the following Q&A thread that's specific to your device a chance either.

You've got to be patient and give your question a chance to be responded to. I personally give any questions I may have anywhere from a week to 10 days (sometimes even longer). It's my opinion that this waiting period is fair.

You also are asking for assistance and left out pertinent information (for a decent response) like the TWRP version, what specifically it is your trying to install and even the specific error/issue being reflected when your attempting to install.

I'm not a Moderator nor an Administrator and this information is solely my personal opinion/suggestion/recommendation but, you should be made aware of the possible issues that you can face with a Moderator for posting in multiple areas/threads that you really want to avoid.

Will flashing a Custom Rom help me even if i deleted OS?
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
By your words I have to assume that you had TWRP but running your stock rom, then, of course, a custom rom is an OS not complete (most of times don´t contain many partitions) but I have to assume cause you don´t give many details that you erase your system (maybe cache, dalvik, format data) but all of this only wipe a main partition like system and data then .... a custom rom contain a system too with the needed boot image so that you can boot again.

If you have a custom recovery, then unlocked bootloader you by your own are making this direction atleast how I said you before you want to retun to your own steps.

Ok, try first this step, read carefully that a custom rom applies for your specific variant and then will see how you go, flash some light rom running nougat without adding any mod to can boot first.

---------- Post added at 10:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:53 PM ----------

I don´t know why in order to flash twrp you erased all including system, you have first to be sure to reboot to recovery, then wipe all to can now flash a custom rom that I suppose that you have in your internal storage.

If you have an unlocked bootloader then flash again recovery using this two inputs in fastboot mode (they´re not redundant for your case) I guess that you know something about adb/fastboot and you have properly installed in your pc.

Send device to fastboot mode using hardware buttons (most of times, button down + pwr), rename your recovery just twrp and type fastboot devices just to see if appears an ID of your device, if yes continue with fastboot flash recovery twrp.img (to flash it permanently) and follow with fastboot boot twrp.img (to force device to reboot to this recovery)
[General Questions and Answers] xunholyx:
This is incorrect.

fastboot boot twrp.img will run recovery from your PC instead of from the phone (I use this on my Pixel 2XL to run TWRP from my PC instead of installing it to my phone)

Also, you can't reboot to recovery from fastboot. You have to do it from system/when booted up regularly.

So.... after flashing TWRP (with fastboot flash recovery twrp.img):

fastboot reboot and after the phone reboots:

adb reboot recovery
[General Questions and Answers] Brathzy:
Unable to access fastboot as mobile only shows boot screen nothing else
[General Questions and Answers] xunholyx:
I don't know anything about your device, but try this:

Hold vol up + vol down + power until your phone reboots. As soon as the screen goes black, release vol up and hold onto vol down + power. Hopefully that will take you to bootloader where you can run fastboot commands. This method works for other devices, so maybe yours as well.
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
Thanks for trying to help, is important don´t give to user incorrect directions, really apreciate and correct my state always that you think that I´m wrong but I need to correct in three stated by yourself

- I indicated user two similar commands, the first is only so he don´t forget to flash it permanently cause if he reboots to recovery and then reboot again recovery will dissapear.

- Maybe without any device (smartphone) connected to pc is possible to boot in a virtual machine to twrp like you said (I never tried this), but this is not here a theme of discussion.

Like I indicated is one of the correct ways (1) to flash twrp temporarily and reboot to recovery cause is (2) possible reboot to recovery from fastboot using this method, I attached a screenshot, now I repeated operation onto my device just to can clarify this cause like so many times heard "A picture is worth a thousand words" and (3) users can´t reboot at this time device in order to go to adb state and by now this possiblity is null, so he instead of this can reboot manually with hardware buttons; most of mtk devices are pretty known by me, of course I don´t have all the answers and new devices implement some tricks that are diffcult to know all of them but they are my preferred "toys" at time to flash almost anything cause like ever said mtk devices are almost unbrickeable.
