[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yoelnico:
I actually got this phone from a friend that says he rooted the phone then he try to upgrade to the latest update it (like 2 months ago) and the phone just "bricked"

When i try to flash a raw firmware it says the same

I try to follow http://xdaforums.com/zenfone2/general/guide-recover-fastboot-bricked-zenfone-t3284337 thread and this is what happens

And I still cant do anything with it.

Im on windows 7 and have the 1.3 version.

Any help?

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timbernot:
Try this to get in recovery ,

boot into bootloader

select reboot recovery via vol- button-- and then hit power.

In the dead bot `error` environment---

Press power and volume up for 3 seconds - then release vol+ (repeat this approx 10 times)

It should boot into recovery approx on the 8th time.

There you could try wipe data/factory reset then reboot system. give it time( 10 mins) see if it sets up.

if not, reboot again into recovery like before^^

select> apply update from ADB

and run cmd >

adb sideload MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip

Remember to put latest firmware in adb/fastboot folder ( WW- blah blah..eg .184) renaming it to MOFD_SDUPDATE( without putting zip on the end) !

If this fails then its unbricking -- flashing ifwi, dnx fwr and droidbootposign.bin in xFSTK downloader - then flash raw in flashtools -- remember set up isoc driver first-- if flashtools is installed before isocdriver is set up --uninstall / remove all traces of flashtool before doing anything
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LBN:
I think this must be related to that whole thing with later roms having a bug or perhaps Asus patched a hole which does not enable us to boot unlock properly when you run builds in the 180s, there is no getting to ADB in any way or form, nor does flashing with fastboot work, I got severely frustrated when I read all the people suggesting the same thing, folks ADB is not working.

I actually spent most of my day today resolving this problem xFSTK downloader worked and it is the only thing that works, check out the video from timbernot, http://xdaforums.com/zenfone2/general/unbrick-vid-tutorial-restore-serial-t3411064, and skip through the wait periods, after downloading on xFSTK, I was immediately able to get into recovery mode, didnt even have to flash the raw image, but I guess that depends on your situation though.

---------- Post added at 03:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:17 AM ----------

just a quick addon, you do need to follow the process of flashing the raw file, and the whole problem, by the unbricking not working xFSTK downloader, is that the instructions have added a zero too much in the options as timbernot points out, if you make sure you only add 0x80000807 in the GP override flag, it will work.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timbernot:
I think you are absolutely correct re patched a hole ;)

Strange thing too ...

to get your back ups running again in twrp.

flash the CWM tethered root method - to gain root !

Me, i had to use official unlock bootloader app.(the one by sorg didnt complete even @ WW-Bla-bla .20 FW

Then fastboot flash twrp (the 24 patched version)

Then flash update271 SU

Then in twrp 2.0.7.0(cant remember exact number)

select >install

select >bottom right small box [images]

Then install twrp 3.0.2.0,boot back into twrp

flash updateSU 2.71 again

then back up rom.

then restore old twrp back up/s

after following this guide https://xdaforums.com/zenfone2/help/thead-bricked-phone-updating-to-mm-tips-t3452785 i was getting permission denied for everything..what oddly solved my problems was running this command "fastboot oem stop_partitioning" in an adb shell after the whole processs.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sukhwant717:
it happens when you run command fastboot oem start_partitioning and don't stop that. some time peoples use asus flash tool it starts flash but sometime when any of commands fails it exits. then device gets into these situations. this the the reason i highly recommend to flash firmware with manual commands. in the above thread i have provided a method to do so. see section flash firmware without AFT and save for future reference.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azthemansays:
As I found out myself today thanks to this poster, you also get the "permission denied" response with fastboot when you have a security lockscreen enabled on your phone:

As well, if "none" or "swipe options are greyed out in the lockscreen options, you need to go to go Settings>Security and tap on "clear credentials" to be able to access them again.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Muhammad.Muayad:
When the WiFi is turned ON, As we all know the device will constantly search for wifi networks around it, but the problem is whenever it detects an open wifi network (which requires a sign in via browser) it will immediately go into a bootloop and you will NOT be able to fix it with anything other than going outside that particular WiFi range and force your phone to turn OFF, then restart it again, (remove all cables). and it will clear the Cache since it rearranged the whole icons.

So this happened to me in the Airport and i had to go to an Elevator (Lift) in order to disconnect the phone from the WiFi range (since a metal room isolates all the wireless networks) and i restarted my phone there.

So updating to Android 5.1.1 will NOT fix this bug, and i have to turn OFF wifi before going outside my house, because even when i am driving my car my phone will get into bootloop because somewhere on the road there was an open WiFi network (with browser sign in) and even .1 second is enough for my phone to bootloop.

If anyone knows a fix please discuss it, FYI my phone is NOT rooted and NOT altered in any way, its stock.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WakyEggs:
Hi had the same problem. This has to do with your phone having a "null" wifi access point saved. This access point needs to be removed.

Quick fix is doing a factory reset and setup your phone as a new device. If you setup your phone with a google backup you will get the corrupt wifi access point in your phone again and the boot loop will start again when you enable your wifi.

[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] Roman5:
Hi all, new here. My MDA Compact lll takes quite some time to get a fix on satellites. It usually takes a couple of minutes or so in my car. Someone on another forum said he upgraded to the Dopod Rom and it made a huge difference in how fast he gets a lock on. I'm using tomtom navigator 6. I don't know anything about dopod rom, what version or how to install it, can someone fill me in please? My MDA is using WM5. Thanks in advance! :)
[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] markquinton:
Are you using QuickGPS? As the name of this program kinda gives away what it does,so using it will greatly reduce the seek times in finding satellites. Basically it downloads a small file which has the location of satellites valid for the next 3 days or so, so that when TomTom (or any other GPS app) opens it already has a better idea where abouts in the sky to look.

I'd imagine the other person is using that regularly, it can be configured to automatically download the file and can do it when connected to a pc via ActiveSync which is the best way I think. (No GPRS charges incurred this way)
[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] Roman5:
Thanks mark. I've already been using quick gps, ( I have unlimited internet access via my mobile service provider ) but it doesn't make much if any difference. Still curious as to whether this dopod rom will help, and/or, if a hard reset would make any difference. Having said that, I've only had the compact 3 for a few weeks so not sure a hard reset would be necessary.
[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] Roman5:
Anyone else got some advice? I'm just trying to find out how to speed up my gps, whether it's just a hard reset needed or a new rom.
[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] dyna:
I had the same.

With my original ROM (T-Mobile NL) it took like 1 minute average to get a fix and even then it was only 3 sats.

With the Dopod ROM (WWE) it takes about 30 secs average and i get like 6 sats right away.

Didn't check what makes the differents though, my guess is that it's probably just the updated QuickGPS which you may also find as a seperate .cab to install in WM5.

For updating to WM6 there are a lot of posts already, try looking for the complete idiot's guide post.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] j21098:
Recently my s4 hasn't been charging correctly. It's been charging really slow and the phone heats up a lot on the top left area when charging. It used to not do this before. I downloaded Ampere to check the charging rate and it's 300mA. I've tried different USB cables, ac connectors, and outlets and they all give 1200mA. I've also tried different USB on the ac connector that came with my s4 and it gives 1200mA only when I try to use the S4 cable it shows 300mA. Is the cable the problem or is it the battery? Could someone please use Ampere and see the rate you get with the USB cable and ac connector that came with the S4?

[Verizon LG G4] mkglitzman:
The s6 requires the TouchWiz framework. The m 9 keyboard requires the sense framework. Both would have to be reverse engineered and ported before they would work. Seeing as how there's no roms or recovery. I say the probability of it happening is unlikely

[X Play General] quera:
Hi guys! I'm very glad with the upgrade in camera I've got, however some minor performance glitches and, lastly, wifi speed have been bothering me.

Watch this simple video I've took comparing both Nexus 4 (2 and a half years old) and my brand new Moto X Play wifi performance. Note that both phones were right beside the router. Some meters away from the router, Moto X Play can even score worse (sometimes lower than 1 Mbps - no, I'm not kidding).

Please, tell me this WiFi speed is something I can fix.

I haven't been able to recreate any issues with Wi-Fi/Bluetooth conflicting somehow. Wi-Fi speed stays constant regardless of whether the Bluetooth is on or off. I'm using the European 16GB single-SIM variant.
[X Play General] m4tt94:
The test was actually not fair: the devices connected to two different servers.
[X Play General] quera:
Actually, regardless of which server it is connected, WiFi speed goes up to the band maximum when I turn off bluetooth.

[Note Edge Themes and Apps] and2:
For this you have to decompile the launcher apk, than go to res\values and open styles.xml.

In the xml file search for

<style name="BaseHomeIcon">

(should be on top)

and change the value for the color in red

<item name="android:textColor">#[COLOR="Red"]ffffffff[/COLOR]</item>

Recompile it, copy the AndroidManifest.xml and META-INF folder from the originale apk to the new compiled apk and push it to the right place.

Did you work out a fix for this?

Im getting the same errors building LiquidSmooth for my HTC m7.

I cant see a difference between CM12.1 (which compiled first time without a hitch) and the c, c++ docs in my liquid code.

Its got me stumped as gps.h looks ok (Im no pro though) it is referenced. ie

#include "hardware/gps.h"

at the beginning of /frameworks/base/services/core/jni/com_android_server_location_GpsLocationProvider.cpp

Im getting the same errors building LiquidSmooth for my HTC m7.

I cant see a difference between CM12.1 which compiled first time without a hitch and the c, c++ docs in my liquid code.

The only solution I could think of was to add $(TOPDIR)hardware/libhardware/include \ to /build/coor/config.mk ...But it was already there.

Let me know if you figure it out. Ill do the same. Thanks.
