[Nexus 6  General] androidddaaron:
I did a real good number on my nexus 6

I wiped and formated data in twrp thinking you can format a ROM.This type of wipe was the type (YES) Under advanced wipe causing to have No O.S Installed after a reboot .This will happen on any phone if you type YES format data and reboot thinking you'll have a clean ROM . Its a instant brick Unless you have a ROM downloaded prior to flash or have external SD card slot to put a ROM onto.

Then when I went to flash firmware stock Images with Wugfresh tool kit in fastboot mode it failed ,afterwards I OEM relocked boot loader by mistake before i ever tried to reboot the Newly flashed firmware ....thinking the factory images flashed in which they didn't completely. The OEM relock wiped phone and

I was stuck with a No O.S System and no way to OEM unlock bootlader cause I had no O.S to boot into to check mark the OEM unlock box.

This is a highly unlikely scenario for the Inability to reflash firmware if you still remain oem unlocked but Possible if you format data within twrp because it wipes O.S meaning OEM unlock box is gone unchecked

Stay away from OEM relocking Unless you have rebooted safely into a ROM or stock ROM after flashing .

:screwy: DO NOT OEM RELOCK WITHOUT FOLLOWING THE METHOD TO DO SO.
[Nexus 6  General] GuestK0087:
Just to note, when facing the "no OS installed" scenario, just download a ROM to your PC. Boot the phone to TWRP, and connect to PC. You can then drag and drop or copy and paste the ROM in your internal storage. Then flash the ROM with TWRP. :)
[Nexus 6  General] androidddaaron:
Ya I should have done that .. My question is why even the option for formating data if it wipes O.S

Ive done this alot before selling a phone then flashing a rom after it says No O.S .Only thinking that's the real safe way to make sure all data is unrecoverable .

I have even seen no O.S pop up on many of my samsung phones when doing standard dalvic cache and including system wipe .

What I don't get about the nexus phones is what's the correct way to wipe it Ensuring all data is unrecoverable without having the no O.S issue ,obviously its not just the standard wipe option .It must be formating data ??
[Nexus 6  General] GuestK0087:
Removal of the Google account and a factory reset. Or removal of Google account and flashing a factory image.

Unfortunately I'm talking mainly about media data .. Photos files videos ... Unless you have eraser app installed i wanna say its all recoverable even after a reset

Anyone knows gt data recovery disk digger people use for there purpose of recovering lost photos but you never know if they use it on a used phone someone has sold
[Nexus 6  General] simms22:
think about it, when you format something you cant have an os installed there any more, you yoursrlf formatted it. you can't format something and keep all the os there as well.
[Nexus 6  General] you5urf:
That's odd, formatting data in recovery has never formatted system for me. I've always formatted all partitions except for system to do a complete factory reset and never had an issue.

OS resides on the system partition so wiping dalvik and system will result in no os.

If you worry about data being recovered by a new owner perhaps you couod write junk data and then format the partitions several times? Not particularly versed on the characteristics of nand so you may want to look into that.
[Nexus 6  General] simms22:
he probably formatted everything instead of going by partition.
[Nexus 6  General] stumpy352:
That's what I would think. I have formatted data several times on this device & it certainly doesn't wipe your system partition.
[Nexus 6  General] hackdrag0n:
I just flash a factory image using fastboot. Fastboot itself will wipe each partition before flashing. Flashing userdata will wipe internal storage. Then reboot fully into the OS and ensure everything is working as expected. Only then is it safe to relock the bootloader.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hibby50:
I've only run AICP nightlies but I heard this is a widespread issue from another user on AOSP ROMs. Sometimes my clock changes like I'm in another time zone and my data drops out until I toggle airplane mode (not at the same time). I love AOSP and hate going back to TW but I missed an important alarm this morning. Is there any fix or ROM this doesn't happen with? Both issues seem related maybe considering the time is from the network. TIA!
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dopamin3:
I have had the time zone issue quite frequently on different AOSP based ROMs. Just go into your date and time settings and manually specify the time zone (you can still leave date on auto) and it should correct that issue. In terms of data dropping, some people have tried flashing this but it never really improved signal for me. Try running one of the newer Blisspop builds, it has been working for me switching between lte and 3g and I have data connectivity 99% of the time.

you cannot restore any drm keys that did not come from the device initially as you will brick the phone, sounds like you bought the phone 2nd hand and the person unlocked the bootloader, unless you have a copy of the drm keys that were backed up before the bootloader was unlocked then you have lost the drm keys

Here is TWRP 2.8.7 recovery image for Honami. This is for flashing in fastboot to fota partition. This recovery is faster and no overheating issues during sessions...

This image is for custom roms/unlocked bootloaders

Instructions:

1. Make sure you don't have TWRP recovery in boot.img, because the 2 will collide resulting in no recovery at all

2. Unzip the file

3. In fastboot: fastboot flash recovery twrp2.8.7_Honami.img; then fastboot reboot

4. If for some reason you would want to reverse this, go to fastboot and execute the following:

fastboot erase recovery

Read #1 again: you can't have 2 TWRP recoveries one in boot.img and the other on fota. Don't come back saying, I flashed this and now I can't boot in recovery. Waah, waah.....

You have been warned...
[Xperia Z1 General] sgspluss:

[Xperia Z1 General] hxq88:
[MENTION=5075064]optimumpro[/MENTION] take a look, this recovery said our devices is Z3 cuz we cant flash any rom
[Xperia Z1 General] optimumpro:
Just open the zip of any rom you want to flash, go to /meta-inf/com/google/android/updater-script and delete the first line (assert). Delete the entire line. The text should start with "ifelse(is_mounted("/system"), unmount("/system"));. Save, rezip and flash. Use Noteplus on Windows or any text editor on Linux.

I always remove that line on all my roms. This is done so that real dopes won't flash a rom from another device. And you have got to be a real dope to do that. :)
[Xperia Z1 General] optimumpro:
Ok. I have changed the default.prop and uploaded the new file, so it should say Xperia Z1 now. No other changes. Check the OP.

P.S. I can't confirm it on my device, because I don't really have any rom with that assert line, but it should work.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] dimex:
I've been slowly figuring out the best companion device for my use case. I have a powerful desktop and also a powerful Wacom Windows tablet for school. The windows tablet is overkill, and I cant stand the active cooling (fan noise) in a classroom setting. There are Core M and Atom options, but they're Windows, and as a tablet, I don't really like Windows.

When I'm at home and not on my desktop, I'm using Android. So for my day to day notetaking operation at school and media consumption at home, I think this Note 10.1 2014 will be my best bet. I'll appreciate the weight, beautiful display, and Wacom.

I'll likely load a stock Android ROM because I can't stand TW and don't really care about S-Pen gimmicks, just inking.

My big gripe: the golf-pencil S-Pen. I've read other pens don't track well on the Note, and there's not a calibration tool like Windows.

Any larger pens you guys use with great tracking? Eraser end and buttons would be appreciative as well, but not sure how they work on Android.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] samsungwarrior:
Don't quite get it. You want a pen to do what the s pen does that's not an s pen. As the only gripe is calling it a golf pen , when its well made, looks stylish with the gridded signed metal looking end ,does its job perfectly, size is covered by the fact that you only hold the end to grip as with a normal pen , and the rest just goes up your hand, and multiple eraser functions are just a screen tap away. Naa don't fix what ain't broke. Ha ha unless your secretly a Windows tech developer , picking people's brains how to make a windows tablet as good as this note, lol

Worst comes to the worst get an s pen holder, an ave it large lol. Good luck with your search. Just thought are all the note pens the same size .
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] dimex:
Wow, you sure do sound like a Samsung fanboy. Secondly, I asked for note takers and artists to respond, not someone who obviously has little to no experience with Wacom tech and pennable tablets. I guarantee this Note is a little toy for you that you briefly use S-Pen gimmicks with. I don't care about faux metal, a flat button that's hard to press, no eraser, and a tiny stick. I care about a normal sized pen with good functionality, and no digitizer offset.

Try to write notes for an entire working day with that little S-Pen of yours and then check back here. Thought so.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Large Hadron:
The Lenovo Thinkpad Tablet Pen described in this post works with no offset on my Note 10.1 2014 edition (I've tried varying the writing angle and still haven't produced anything). Do have to press a little harder than with the S-pen, but it is a little larger (and round, rather than flattened) and so easier to use for longer sessions.

As I don't actually use the button on the S-pen, and so don't care about covering it, I slide the grip from a cheap pen around it to make it a little wider. It has an eraser end, but I have my writing apps set so I can erase with my finger anyway, so don't actually use this.

I don't draw on the tablet, but do use it for note-taking and annotation (actually the only reason I bought it).
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] dimex:
Thanks, I'm hoping the Fujitsu Lifebook stylus with the hard felt wacom nibs (my preferred setup after a lot of trial and error) will work on the Note with no offset. Sad that people have to hack up a ball-point pen and make their own bigger stylus.

Market the Note as a note taking/art device but then don't offer any options for a comfortable stylus. Makes perfect sense.

All,

I am getting settled with a Moto360, I keep my phone on vibrate all day. I believe this causes the notifications to the watch to be "silent', meaning I don't get any notice when they arrive. If I don't look at the watch, I would never know anything happened. I also have a Gear Fit, and when it gets a notification, it vibrates. Is there a setting for this on Wear? Regardless of my phone sound profile, I'd like the watch to buzz so I know something landed.

Is possible??

[Off-topic] MindphaserXY:
Does anyone else here work in the technical support or any cellular related fields whether it's retail or customer service? Some people are really freaking ignorant of the technology or absolutely stubborn when it comes to how phones and service works. I am tired of people demanding a new phone when every little thing happens. Does a car dealership replace your current car with a new one when it's under warranty? No they fix the problem with the car. It's not my fault you moved and you don't have coverage at your new house. When you got your phone we gave you a grace period to try it out and determine if coverage is good enough where you live. Moving doesn't give you a new grace period. You're not under contact anymore so if you want to leave us...pay off your device and go. I'll even help you unlock it once you've paid it off. Backups, backups...holy sh*t freaking backup your data people. When an application wreaks havoc or you got ad bots or whether something software related fails you might as well be prepared to hard reset your phone. No, you're not getting a warranty replacement without doing that step first. You're gonna have to transfer your data either way so back your sh*t up. It's not my responsibility to ensure your pictures and contacts don't get lost. Take some responsibility for your data and educate yourself on how to save it. Warranty is not an upgrade path either. Don't ask for a different color or model. That one year by the manufacturer is for the exact model. We (the carrier) are nice enough to take care of the warranty on behalf of the manufacturer. You think Samsung or Asus will send you an upgraded or different device? Take it up with them. Don't whine and cry because you can't scam warranty and insurance for an upgrade. You want a new phone then pay off the one you have or buy it at full price.

Anyways just had to vent. Working in technical support is actually a lot of fun and I really enjoy educating and teaching customers how to use their devices and explore the world a smartphone has to offer. However the amount of rampant stupidity and unreal requests are absolutely absurd.
[Off-topic] ShadowLea:
Tell me about it. Every. Single. Bloody. Day.

I truly, truly believe there should be a driving license for using a smartphone. The amount of people who have no idea how the device, the one that they entrust their entire lives to, actually works is damn near astronomical. :rolleyes:

"My WiFi doesn't work. What did you do to it?!?! *insert expletives filled capslock rant about fraud and scammers*" To a provider that doesn't supply landlines, only mobile. About 80% of the people apparently don't know the difference between WiFi and Mobile Data.

Had this gem last week: Someone opened the charger flap on the S5, and the thing broke off. He bend down to pick it off the floor, and dropped the phone instead. Screen cracked, phone dead. Now that customer is demanding that the provider covers the repair costs of the dropped phone. He claims it wasn't his fault that the phone dropped, it was the fault of that broken off flap, and so it should fall under warranty. :rolleyes:

"How do I view the photo I just took?" Why are you even using a smartphone? :rolleyes:

This also happens about three times a day:

"My phone doesn't work." No other information, just that.

"Sir, which brand and model is your phone?"

"It's an iPhone."

"Which one?"

"An S4."

"Uh, sir, an iPhone 4S or a Samsung Galaxy S4?"

"Aren't they all the same?"

And then there's these people:

"I have a bill here for 300 quid of additional, out-of-package costs. I was calling a friend and forgot to end the call. You should've ended it for me. I'm not paying that."

Oh, and the amount of people referring to 4G as G4.... -.-
