[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bitbang3r:
I've had this problem (5 bars, but can't even ping 8.8.8.8... but if I toggle data off & on, I instantly connect & usually get fast transfers) all the time (Fort Lauderdale area) for months, but it seems to have been particularly bad for the past few weeks.

Is this T-Mobile's fault? Or do Note 4s on other carriers (Sprint, Verizon, AT&T, etc) have the same problem?

My theory:

* The number of bars is determined mostly by the signal strength of the nearest tower

* The phone doesn't necessarily use the same tower for data that it uses for voice & SMS (in fact, when it's using HSPA+, it HAS to be simultaneously connected to two different towers).

* The modem firmware resists changing towers when there's an active data session unless it totally and completely loses sight of the tower it's currently using for data. I'm not sure whether it's the fault of Android or GSM network design, but data hand-offs seem to be "hard" rather than "soft", and always involve a connectivity break of at least a few seconds before the new one gets established.

* Thus, you can get into a situation (say, by driving a half mile or so) where the phone establishes a data connection with one tower, you drive *just* far enough away that it can still hear the original tower -- but can't actually complete a transmission without unrecoverable errors -- but voice & SMS messages go through the nearby tower. When you toggle data, it breaks the old data session, and establishes the new one from the strong nearby tower.

One thing that appears to have changed (in South Florida, at least) over the past few months: I always had problems with losing data connections while driving unless I disabled LTE, but NOW it appears to be doing the same thing even when GSM/WCDMA only is selected instead of GSM/WCDMA/LTE. It's like they figured out what was making LTE dysfunctional, then went out of their way to make HSPA equally dysfunctional. :mad:

UPDATE

T-Mobile's tech support was able to resolve my issue. I think "canceling location" on their end is what did the trick.

I did not use my HTC Evo 3D GSM for about a half year.

Last thing I remember was that I pull out my microsd.

So, now I wanna sell it but it did not start.

When I connect on Windows 7 OS, I got a QHSUSB_DLOAD device. So Live-Linux version with Ultimate Recovery Tool 3.0, Linux Ubuntu with Ultimate Recovery Tool 3.1 and disabled automount and Lubuntu 64bit with Ultimate Recovery Tool 3.1 and siabled automount. Non of them worked with my HTC.

What went wrong?

How is it possible that Windows recognize but Linux not?

My current situation:

->twrp installed

->everything formatted!(sdcard,data etc)

->unable to mount /system error in both cwm/twrp

-> No OS installed

->stock partition

->unable to flash any ROM, yes any custom ROM out there(from sideload or from sdcard) with this error "failed to mount /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system at /system No such file or directory

unmount of /system failed; no such volume"

->Unable to flash MI roms through miflash because of unspecified error (0xffffff01)!

-> hope from you guys.

My mi3 was running on lollipop ivan ROM. everything was ok. I thought lets flash mokee. after flashing mokee and using it for few days(With no gapps, unable to flash) I reverted back to ivan AOSP from my old backup(thank god!).

Crysis started after this point.

I extended the partition from this guid->http://xdaforums.com/xiaomi-mi-3/general/howto-resize-extend-partition-capacity-t3011918

It was successfull. But whenever I tried to flash any rom , it gave me the error mentioned above(failed to mount /dev/block/...)

So I fomatted everything, and reverted the partition changes to stock. But the error was still there, on both cwm/twrp.

So I thought of using miflash method to solve this issue. But miflash is giving unspecified error. Yes, I'm doing everything correctly in miflash method,no space in folder name and etc.But it's giving error.

Now I don't have anything in my phone except twrp. Cant flash AOSP/CM romes because of the error and cannot flash MIUI from meflash. What should I do? Seriously I'm completely broken. Need Help. :crying::crying:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djacks222:
I have succesfully managed to root, install xposed, and now i have access to fsstboot.

P.s. i do not know where all my sources have come from as i was using google search not really knowing what to do lol.... But it worked...... Lol

So i googled laf from my /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name and i found out that this is some sort of lg recovery that hides fastboot.

So i opened up adb and ran ls -al dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name

Which opened up the partiton info for the lg vista and laf is mounted at /dev/block/mcmblk0p15

So i rad these commands..... Not sure which one really did the job but they zero out laf.

If=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/laf

And i ran dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p15 ( i ran this with dd and without dd command)

Then i had to turn my phone off and wait a few seconds. Press and hold the vol+ button and then connect it to the computer.

It still said download mode up tob and it would never get past "port change" so i had to keep holding the vol + button and disconnect my usb cable and then reconnect it.

Finally....... Fastboot processing commands appered.

Now i ran

fastboot oem unlock

And this ran with no errors too.....

So my question noe is. How do i verify if my bootloader truly is unlocked or not???
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pantallica:
Reboot back into fastboot and run this command "fastboot getvar all" that will tell you if it is unlocked.

So I reserved my free upgrade to Windows 10 from Windows 7. I don't know if I'll go through with the update though, since I don't know if I'll be able to install the fastboot and flashboot drivers on it. Is anyone already using the preview with the drivers installed? Not that I flash very often anymore, but it's always a good idea to have the drivers ready in case something goes wrong. Any leads/ helps?
[Xperia Z1 General] moneydeep:
I've been running windows 10 since a couple months and flashtool works fine. Including fastboot. No issues whatsoever.
[Xperia Z1 General] Techpenguin5:
I can vouch for that too both flashtool and fastboot function perfectly on windows 10.
[Xperia Z1 General] AnrgKrshn:
perfect, I have some peace of mind now :) Is the driver install easy enough? What were the steps?
[Xperia Z1 General] Techpenguin5:
Exactly the same as windows 8, disable driver signature enforcement and install the drivers from the flashtoll drivers file and provided you have the rest of the files not fastboot and flashtool will now function fine :)
[Xperia Z1 General] matalic:
how do we do this? where's the link to do this ?
[Xperia Z1 General] AnrgKrshn:

Hm, if you are able to install the technical or insider preview of win10, shouldn't you be able to install fastboot doing a headstand ? Just imho
[Xperia Z1 General] AnrgKrshn:
I wasn't running the technical preview, was just waiting on the upgrade. I got the drivers installed on my old laptop which I had upgraded to windows 10, but now that I've bought a new laptop, I can't seem to find the driver package that just easily installed all the drivers for me. Need to find it now ':)
[Xperia Z1 General] Deathschythe33:
Windows 10 preview or even the official Windows 10 release, its the same process of installing the drivers. Disable signature verification.
[Xperia Z1 General] MrBratka:
To disable driver signature on Win10 machine:

1. Open Start > Settings

2. Go to Update & Security > Recovery

3. Under Advanced Startup select Restart Now

4. Once your computer has rebooted go to Troubleshoot > Advanced Options > Startup Settings

5. Click Restart. Finally, you will be given a list of startup settings that you can change. The one we are looking for is “7) Disable driver signature enforcement”. To choose the setting, you will need to press the F7 key.

Then PC will restart and you can install unsigned drivers without any problems.

So I switched off my phone and now it won't reboot. It just shows a USB symbol with a white bar which turns red after a while everytime I try to boot it. I can't access DROIDBOOT mode by pushing down power + vol up key. It shows the USB symbol in this case too.

TWRP not installing?

Hi all!

I have some what of a problem here.

I have an international G4 and I've unlocked it with the unlock.bin. It was successful and it says bootloader unlocked during startup.

I then flash TWRP in fastboot with:

fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.6.0-h815.img

With the response:

target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes

sending 'recovery' (31796 KB)...

OKAY [ 1.121s]

writing 'recovery'...

OKAY [ 0.297s]

finished. total time: 1.418s

I then reboot the device and then turn it off. I've then tried a bunch of different combinations to get in to recovery without luck.

Never mind i thought and allowed the phone to boot and then run: adb reboot recovery

This rebooted the device to a black screen with a android on his back and a red triangle with an exclamation mark.

I've tried flashing the device with TWRP in fastboot twice and it says OKAY but it doesn't seem to work?

Am I an complete idiot and are missing something here? :eek:

---------- Post added at 07:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:53 AM ----------

I got it working, sort of...

I ran Fastboot boot twrp-2.8.6.0-h815.img

This brought me in to TWRP. From there i flashed supersu.zip and twrp-2.8.6.0-h815.img.

This apparently worked. Although I still can't figure out how to get in to TWRP through keypresses during boot. All I've found is to hold volume down and power, when the LG logo comes I release them for 1 second and press again. Sometimes the notification light comes on blue and the phone starts up in safe mode but no recovery.

But since I flashed supersu I've downloaded the TWRP-app from playstore and restart to recovery from the app, works great.

So, for anyone else having this problem. Boot the device from the image and flash supersu and recovery from there.

But the question about keycombos for recovery during boot still stands. Sure the app works but what about if I f-ck up and get bootloops, then I'm screwed :(
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BoneMo:
have you tried opposite button - i mean to use volume up and power ?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Swe.sharkie:
Yup.

Ok, this is what I've tried...

1. Hold power + vol down, release when LG logo comes and hold again. -> Sometimes nothing, sometimes safemode (probably timing with keys)

2. Hold power + vol down, don't release -> Nada

3. Hold power + vol down, release power when LG logo comes. -> Factory data reset

4. Hold power + vol up, release when LG logo comes and hold again. -> Nothing.

5. Hold power + vol up, don't release -> Nothing.

6. Hold power + vol up, release power when LG logo comes. -> Nothing.

7. Hold vol up + vol down (not power) -> IMEI Display with barcode.

8. ?

I've experimented with a lot of timings and can't always reproduce these results. Factory data reset only worked once for instance so I'm thinking timing is very important here.

I'll keep trying and update if I find anything....

Hello,

I'am trying to get root on my lg g4. I do have the h815 version with an unlocked bootloader. My problem is that flashing twrp is not working. Fastboot is saying that everything went allright, but booting into recovery is not working for me.

If I use adb to boot to recovery, I only see an android robot with a red warning sign. That means that the flash was not done correctly. When I use the button combination to boot into recovery, I do see a robot with an animated gear for a short time., but end up on stock rom.

I have tried the current version 2.8.7.0 and the oldest available 2.8.6.0 to no avail.

Could it be that it is not working, cause of some updates I have installed? So far I done every single system update and whatever lg provided.

Edit: I fixed my problem! I had to directly boot into recovery after flashing twrp. Which I had never done before...

[Nexus 6 Accessories] PsychicHigh:
Hey everyone, been looking for a decent mobile battery that supports Quick Charge 2.0. The Qualcomm site lists only a single certified battery pack, the Ape Technologies MP5200Q (ape-battery.com/ljz/EnProductShow.asp?ID=221) which is only 5200 mAh and no where to be found on Amazon. The battery pack I'm thinking about picking up is the Aukey Quick Charge 2.0 10000mAh battery pack available at amazon.ca/Aukey-10000mAh-Portable-External-Supported/dp/B00S0OHKII/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top, which claims to support it while details about the charger does not specify if it's using a certified controller while emails with Qualcomm asking if this item is certified have gone unanswered.

Currently have a couple 10,000 mAh battery packs which are okay for charging my daughter's Nexus 5, it does a poor job at charging my Nexus 6 and I want to upgrade.

Searching XDA, found people asking for reviews of the Aukey battery pack or mentioning they want to buy one but at the time of posting it was not in stock at Amazon. There is one review on the Amazon site which gave the battery pack 2/5, which definitely sounds like a true review and not a paid advertisement, for not an ideal amount of charging power.

Is there anyone with any suggestions of their own, or maybe experience with this battery pack compared to other 10,000 mAh packs, before I jump on this one?

Thanks in advanced!

Download: http://fxpblog.co/cyanogenmod/cyanogenmod-12.1/

----------------

1 thing that I found that is different from CM11 is that the locked to portrait is gone. in CM11, if my device is in portrait orientation and I locked the rotation using the notification bar toggle, it will lock my divice to portrait. If my device is in landscape, it will lock it to landscape.

With CM12.1, if I do the same thing, it will only lock it to landscape. no way to lock it on portrait.

But otherwise good ROM.
