[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adzkii:
So i have a S3 mini VE, and i was flashing a stock firmware on my phone suddenly the USB cable disconnected during the process (ODIN) now when i try to turn on the phone, it doesn't come on at all. the only way to get the phone on is to charge it (AC). but it goes into loop every 5 seconds. So when i take the battery outta the phone and then plug the charger in. It shows this message (See below) but won't go into loop. It's seriously weird. The button combo are fully dead.

So basically i can't get into the phone i tried every method, even tried USB JIG from eBay. i seriously don't know what's going on with the phone, i need help fixing this issue.

has this happened to anyone else?

Button combo (DEAD)

Flashing with ODIN (DEAD)

Download Mode (DEAD)

Recovery Mode (DEAD)

Connecting to PC (DEAD)

So i've done all this, so please don't tell me to do these again i've done em :P

Thanks!

Same problem

Man! How I understand you!

Recently I came up with a similar problem only with my Huawai Ascend mate 7. Even though I am able to connect the device in FASTBOOT mode and flash the recovery It just won't boot into it because there probably some mess up have happened to the device's partitions :( So in particular it is Hard bricked.

Reading a bit here about a hard bricking I think our best bet is to send the device to an Authorized service center. And what they can do is basically two things, first is use some so called "Hardware tool" to force the ROM re-flash. This is an ideal solution for us and ( as the Warranty is not applicable to our phones anymore) in this case we will pay less money, but we still have to :(. The other solution might be to replace the "Chip" or entire "Motherboard" and which might cost an arm and a leg. I am not sure it worth it then, maybe buying a new phone better and just sell this one for spares.

Anyway I am waiting for solution for me for some more time and then I will contact some authorized Huawei Service here in my City.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adzkii:
Haha better of just selling our device, i know for a fact i won't be able to fix it coz i tried everything i could, even USB JIG. Also tge repair service i seen will cost me around $30 which my phone is worth around that price. So im just gonna sell it off or i might just wait for couple of days to find a solution... :)
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guest73:
Well, mine cost me around 500$ or even more(I did not pay in $). You are in a so much better condition :)

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] E-Chan42:
I've got 3 unofficial magnetic chargers, one dock and two cables, all 3 started giving me problems at the same time so I think its safe to say my phone is to blame.

Once I place the phone on the dock or connect the cables there's no way to know what's going to happen, sometimes it charges fine for about an hour then it will just start spazzing out connecting and disconnecting really fast, so fast that even after I disconnect it it still keeps playing to "connect sound" for a while.

anybody had similar experiences?

One thing I have to mention is that you can read many indian languages which werent supported by miui before.
[Mi 3 General] Me_Ashish_:
The main difference between Global & Chinese ROM is that Global one has GApps inbuilt but in Chinese you have to flash them. And some extra differences as like theme store.

Language is not a problem.
[Mi 3 General] josedb:
i read in some post that gapps cannot be flashed , or they may not work, which gapps do you recommend?
[Mi 3 General] Me_Ashish_:
GApps work absolutely I always use China ROM as I don't want to download big sized ROM when I already have basic GApps package with latest Play Store and Services APK as backup.

Use whichever you want, I guess I use PA GApps

[Mi 3 General] bluviper:
when you say extremely fast and smooth.. then its already a good thing. MIUI V6 was fast and smooth.. but lags when you already throw much to it.

but i have a question, this flashable app is good for custom recovery?
[Mi 3 General] nuwanmw1988:
should be..i flashed it using the stock recovery.
[Mi 3 General] bluviper:
if this is the same zip file as the one in MIUI china site. then it cannot be flashed thru custom recovery.

I have tried it, and it issues a security warning that it cannot continue

but the fastboot option will work flawless tho.
[Mi 3 General] Me_Ashish_:
It is the same one. I copy pasted the ZIP file from www.miui.com

And the fastboot one from support page.

Well it can be flashed through CWM as always (not TWRP doe)
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Zel:
Hi guys, I'm going straight to the point: are you happy with your phone (in general, I know every phone has some minor annoyances)? I keep reading on the internet people that keep on lamenting about it (bad battery, laggy, awful RAM management, ect.), that's why I've opened this thread. I don't have the phone and I plan on buying it (it or the s6 edge or edge+, still have to decide - unfortunately the note 5 isn't coming to Europe anytime soon -), but all the reports are making me scared of buying it.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osmosizzz:
I'm happy with it. But you enjoy it more with root. Custom kernel fixes the ram issue, keeps the system speedy, custom roms add more features and debtor for better performance and ram management. So I'm basically enjoying it because of root
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mauley:
Like osmosizzz above I can say that I am very happy with this phone. Once you root it and remove the bloatware this thing flies. Using a custom ROM and kernel I have better battery life, endless customization options and a speedy UI experience.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Zel:
I'd like not to have to root, I'm just tired of it (coming from a nexus 4), but I guess I might consider it if I buy the S6
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mauley:
You really dont have to have root as the phone is still plenty fast and with each update that comes out they are improving the software of the phone.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] godutch:
It's the best phone I ever had, my only gripes are aggressive memory management and the placement of the speaker (I usually end up covering it when holding it :( ), lag and battery are a lot better since the 2nd 511 update, the first update from 501 was rather laggy
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zincsnow:
I have 2 of this phone. here are my opinions:

1st phone (rooted and on XstrestoLite ROM)

I have great battery life, responses and everything seems fine except for the current bug with BOGG firmwares, which resulted in the keyboard lag when coming for lockscreen (Keyboard open delay about 3-6 seconds) check out my battery life here and here

2nd phone (stock and not rooted ever)

I find that the battery life on this phone not as great as my 1st phone, but however, everything is pretty smooth and great to me. But for a short time i had problems with GPS not being able to lock properly on Waze and Google Maps, however, not sure what happened (i didn't update the phone or anything) but it was back to normal again. and never happened again ever since.

Verdict: i love both my phones, i'll have them only until the Samsung Galaxy S7 comes out.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheEndHK:
I owned this phone for over 4 months now. It never lag and blazing fast, the fastest android phone I've ever seen and the most amazing design I've ever seen too. It is just how the poor memory management kills apps at the background when you doing heavy multi-tasking, I've heard the 2nd 5.1.1 OTA fixed it. If multi-tasking is your concern, you should consider S6 Edge Plus comes with 4GB ram.

The battery performance is above average, imagine when you got this ultra smooth speed plus 2K screen and with only a 2550mAh capacity, I'll say it has done the job pretty well on battery life and enough to use a full day for any light to medium usage user. Heavy user will need a 2nd charge but it supports QC2.0(just get a QC2.0 powerbank) or wireless charging.

https://shopmeenova.appspot.com/st/p/mrg2.html

External storage can be overcome easily with this cute staff.

Since I'm a one-hand lover and the S6 size is the max. acceptable limit to me. I'm thinking to swap to Sony Z5 Compact later but that's s810 cpu overheating issue scared me away, I may just stick with S6 until S8 out, still not decided yet atm.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wintermute000:
Its pretty good, but the RAM management and the occasional battery freakout (background drain) are irritating. If 5.1.1 fixes these 2 issues, I'm gold.

Before anyone tells me I can custom, its a work phone, I need full stock unrooted/knox intact otherwise I can't hook into my work's MDM systems (yes, its really nazi security).

But even without root, debloating via package disabler pro/debloater makes a noticeable difference to battery, which is a poor indictment of Samsung (6th generation Galaxy and still not learnt their lesson?).

The camera is out of this world and you get REALLY used to having a reliable fingerprint reader, I just rest my thumb stupidly on the home button on other people's phones (and if there isn't a physical home button I just stare stupidly at the screen for ~2 seconds lol).

I've never actually used the 'swap battery' feature so don't miss it, work phone so I got the storage bumped but if I paid for it myself I'd probably be irritated at the cost

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CJ0206:
Since updating to the EVR firmware (for network specific settings) I love it, super fast and great performance even with intensive games. My one issue is battery life; although it lasts the day with ordinary use it does drain after a while of continuous use, but then again with fast charging I just plug it in for a few minutes and all is good.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Psych0t1c20:
Is there any fix for the memory management?
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Faspaiso:
Only thing I dislike about this phone is the battery, but as other have said. Root->custom rom + kernel (and MAYBE soon Xposed) and this phone is at least average in battery life.

If you don't root (and is a power user, the phone is not for you). With root + custom rom + few tweaks I can go around 3-6 hours SOT on data (depending on brightness) and 6+ on wifi. Without I barely hit 3.

Phones like the Xperia Z3 compact can hit 6 hours SOT without root. So yeah, if rooting this phone is great, if not it sucks from a power user perspective.

[XDA Assist] keronmat:
Hello, I have an HTC Amaze for over a year now. It was working fine, I rooted it CWM 5. and I installed Android revolution custom ROM. Until 2 weeks ago my battery was giving me some trouble, so i put away the phone for a bit, I bought a new battery then I notice the phone wasn't coming on. SO i charge for an entire day it still wasn't charging. I carried it to the shop. They said, that they don't know whats wrong with the phone.

I came home and decide am going to fix it my self i tried powering it into recovery mode, hard reset. screen is still blank, at lease that is what I thought. I look closely and then i notice the phone was in recovery mode but no lights were on in the screen. So normally I thought what anyone would of thought, the bulb in the screen or some kind of wiring went bad. The i tried wiping cache davlik install new new rom. Nothing worked. and this was defficult because I had to use a flash light to see on the screen. Lastly, i just click reboot and then the phone lights up perfectly and HTC logo comes up and then it blanks off again. So can anyone help? any advise

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emills83:
I purchased a used Verizon LG G3 from someone online. It has Verizon all over the device; however, whenever I turned it on, US Cellular popped up on the screen. The guy told me all I had to do was call Verizon and they would activate the phone.

I contacted Verizon, and they said there was nothing they could do. I talked to a friend of mine and he said that it looked like they flashed the phone with a US Cellular firmware as the device is a VS985 but it is showing up as US990 on the firmware. I have tried flashing it back to a stock firmware of Verizon using the FlashLG Tool and stock *.tot file to which it fails and just says device model is different.

My question is, is there anything I can do to fix this or is this phone basically a paper weight?

I'm kind of new to this, so any help would be appreciated.

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Litoven:
Sorry if this is not the correct place for this.

One thing I miss from the Motorola dual sim is the smart sim selection integration into dialer/contact list screens.

This feature will automatically learn which is the preferred sim to use for each contact and this can be changed at dial time. It can't be set on the contact edit screen and is really not needed to, isn't a hassle you have to go thru and usually helps a transparent dual sim operation.

When you choose to dial someone for the first time it will ask which sim to use, the next time you'll dial it will automatically select that sim for that contact BUT on the calling screen you'll have a switch sim button for you to change, which is also useful when you are in a place where signal for the current selected sim is not good, pressing this will re initiate the call but thru the other sim.

This function can be disabled on the dual sim settings screen for those that use some per time of the day or any other different reason.

Thanks.

Hi there,

I earlier had LG g2 AT&T (d800) factory unlocked (lollipop) installed by the provider and I found that apps were getting crashed frequently and I flashed it to cynagenmod 12.1 recently. I see that apps are getting crashed again (the mobile is not rebooting and my uptime shows up for 5 days).

I suspect memory leakages but not sure.

Please help me to fix the issue. I noticed that google services were stopped frequently hence downloaded the latest gapps 5.1 and flashed it.

Every time when I download an app from play store should I need to flash gapps again after clearing the cache ?

Response is highly appreciated.
