[Oppo R7 Plus] NALSONSON:
Hi everyone.

Ok back in August I purchased an Oppo r7plus "m" version not knowing the difference, from a 3rd party seller. I know I probably should've waited until the phone would go on sale in Canada but I wasn't sure if it ever would. So anyways the phone worked great for a while. I noticed that it came pre loaded with OPPO Tools and Super SU. I thought wow, this phone is rooted right of the box? Great! So I started uninstalling some native apps of which I thought were just "bloatware", everything went fine until I uninstalled the weather app.

When I turned the phone back on after restarting, it now goes into the OS but continuosly flashes on and off and you can only access the dropdown notification screen. Luckily from there I can still access the settings menu. I tried holding the power button and volume down button to go to the factory boot screen. That worked and in there its says the color os version, but in brackets says

(rooted).

I can only assume the phone is still rooted but is stuck in some sort of soft brick. I've been doing alot of reading into how I might be able to fix the phone but I'm having trouble figuring it out. I'm good with computers and all but not to this level and I never rooted an android phone before.

Please somebody HELP.
[Oppo R7 Plus] NALSONSON:
So I've downloaded the ROM for my phone model, r7 plus m, and I transfered the zip file over to the internal storage of the device. I then held down the volume down and power buttons to boot to color os recovery. Than I cleared cache and install from sd found the zip file and it started to run.

After about a minute or two into the installation it stops and reads "Installation Failed". I'm thinking I need a recovery.img file but I'm not sure. Even if I had that file I don't know what to do next.

Anyone have any ideas?

Hi, how did you sort it? Are you still in need of stock recovery? I have one for model F, dont know if it works with M model.
[Oppo R7 Plus] fancyfree:
1. Download and extract my RAR files ---> HERE

2. Open your PC device manager

3. Connect an usb cable only to your pc then press and hold the phone volume + button and then connect the usb cable to the phone

3. In the device manager you will see Qhsub_bulk then release the volume+ button

4. Right click on Qhsub_bulk and choose update driver

5. Use one of the driver folders which you alredy extract to install the Qualcomm driver and you will see it like 9008

6. Your phone have to be charged very well for a few hours before you try to flash it.

7. Remove it from the charger then connect an usb cable only to your pc.

8. Try to press and hold the volume + and power buttons at the same time for a few seconds and connect the usb cable to the phone.

9. You have to see the driver in the device manager like 9006 (you can release the buttons) [it wasn't easy for me so keep trying]

10. Open the MSMDownloader and press start

11. If everything is ok you will see a green progress bar flashing. (I was stuck here with the "NON-HLOS.bin" file which you can see in the "Other NON-HLOS File" folder inside the rom which you download)

12. When the process complete in about 10 minutes you can remove the usb cable from your phone.

13. Now you have to do a veeeeeeeery long press and hold on your power button untill you feel the vibration and after that you will see the OPPO logo.

14. Leave it for 5-10 minutes to load the Color OS.

15. Ok you have a working phone but still some apps icons that are missing and the keyboard doesn't appear when you have to write something.

16. Download THIS zipped ROM and put it in the internal storage of your phone.

17. Shut down the phone then press and hold the volume - and the power button at the same time for a while intil you enter into recovery mode.

18. Choose english and then install rom from zip file. After the installation complete reboot the phone and you will get a working keyboard and few more apps like Browser, Chinese market and else....

For me i still need to insert the IMEI's because they are lost... and now i have message: Oppo nv backup. The NV partition is invalid...

Good luck to all! And if you want to give me a beer: paypal: fancyfree_@abv.bg

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steph3003:
is it possible to porting the last Samsung stock 4.2.2 version (from s2 plus) on normal s2?

I think they are very similar (except for cpu maybe) and this can mean: a really rock stable rom, smooth and complete.

Or, what do you think is the best to port on s2, maybe a Galaxy s3-Note1/2 software? Are the s4-s5 too much (I don't even ask for s6 and current note series...)?

Or is it enough an AOSP JB/KK/LP rom? What do you think is more stable (I couldn't fine a single stable LP rom... phone has continuos random reboot and freezes. If you can tell me, I'll be happy!)?

[Android Head-Units] purchio:
I'm so glad I've found this forum. My hope was gone but now I've seen so many experienced users I think there might be a solution! :)

What's happening:

Needed to turn off battery to instal HU. Car date went back to 2-1-2013 12:00PM. When I change the date in the HU, after the minute changes, it goes back to 2-1-2013 12:01PM (because one minute has passed).

Probably the unit is not being able to send CAN commands to the car? Even tough all steering wheel commands still work with new HU.

With the wrong date I cannot use any applications (Chrome, Waze, Facebook, Spotify, Google Maps). And ClockSync only works in root (my unit isn't rooted, I've already tried using KingRoot but it didn't worked).

The second problem is that I've messed up with the factory settings to get the unit to send sound to speakers, and now when I put the gear in reverse, it just shows the radar in the display, the reverse camera stopped showing (it used to show before setting factory settings to default).

Sorry for so many questions, but I'm a beginner to Android and here in Brazil no one has ever seen these Android HU. (My model is CA380-XLA HD from Caska, and they have a ****ty customer support)
[Android Head-Units] purchio:
No answer yet.

I discovered a few things: the HU time and date is determined by the cars ECU date (it's a 2012 Hyundai IX35).

When I was installing the HU I had to unplug the car battery and the ECU was reset, going back to 2013. The Hyundai GDS (ECU scan tool) wasn't able to set the car date and time.

The time sync options in Android are "frozen" in "don't sync". So my plans are to use Clocksync after rooting the unit.

I've tried to root the HU with many self-contained APKs with no success.

When trying to root with a computer, there's no "developer menu", so I hit the kernel version three times to enable developer mode and it said it was already in that mode. Still no menu showing up, no "enable usb debug" option, so when I plug the USB cable, no device is detected, making me unable to root that way.

Please, any suggestions? I've paid $500 for installation and $2100 for this HU that just doesn't work.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Eddie Hicks:
I just purchased a new S6 today from Best Buy. I was lucky to get a OE2 version, saw it on the box labe before I bought it. I would like to root and install a ROM but I want to wait until my 14 day return period is over in case I'm not satisfied and decide to do something else. The prompt to update pops up constantly. It's very annoying and I'm concerned I may accidently tap the update button. I'm coming from a S4. On the S4 I was able to use Root Explorer to rename a couple of system files to stop the request for updates. Since I'm putting off rooting until after 14 days that method is not possible. I cannot uncheck to automatically upgrade because when I go to system update I only get the "update ready to install" message. I tried booting to recovery and wiping system cache but that had no effect. Any suggestions? Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] templton:
I used titanium backup to freeze mine but I know that requires root access... Before I had that I would constantly keep my phone in airplane mode and set mobile data limit low so it wouldn't dl it... Just an FYI I'm on a rooted gs6.. Still no exposed for our phones, it's for 5.1.1 and there's the risk for stage fright as its not patched on the root able version.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Eddie Hicks:
Thank you very much for the reply. Someone on another forum suggested I do a factory reset, don't enter any user information during initial setup and disable auto check for updates. I tried that but apparently you can no longer stop checking for firmware updates. So I said screw it and rooted last night. I can always Odin back to stock if I decide not to keep the S6.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Snowby123:
The smartest thing to do would be to root, freeze the SDM, then, If you no longer want the device, unroot using Odin
[Huawei Watch] incisivekeith:
Two very disappointing things. I got the mesh band watch and noticed right off the bat that the watch is very poor at recognizing wrist gestures. It does not show the main watch face unless the wrist is flicked strongly.

Is there any way to keep the main watchface on all the time instead of it being replaced when the watch is not being looked at? What's the point of these fancy watchfaces if they do not stay on?
[Huawei Watch] tiny4579:
1. I've heard gesture control is spotty on these things.

2. I think you're talking about ambient mode. It kicks in after 10-15 seconds to save power, otherwise, the screen will drain quite quickly. You can also tap the screen or use the button on the side to return to the normal watch face. I don't know of a way to disable this but I know I wouldn't want to.
[Huawei Watch] agentdr8:
Some 3rd-party watch faces offer options to disable the minimal ambient mode, so the "main" watch face is displayed all the time, even when the screen dims. This will definitely drain battery quicker though.
[Huawei Watch] incisivekeith:
Since my OP, I've discovered Android Wear more and settled on the watchfaces: Ranger, Skymaster and Odyssey. I think those are the best watchfaces out there and it's disappointing that there aren't many well-designed watchfaces even after a year of Android Wear.
[Huawei Watch] vvveith:
Apparently you've done a lot of research. Lol ?
[Huawei Watch] incisivekeith:
Indeed.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aaron R:
I have a galaxy note 4 on sprint. When I first got the phone, it ran great. I love the long battery life and multitasking abilities. However, I've noticed recently that it seems to be running slower. I'm on stock, unrooted firmware and I've only had the phone about six months. When I first got the phone, battery life was excellent. I only seemed to lose about ten percent battery for an hour of normal use (screen on, low/moderate processor use). Now I lose about twice that. I also downloaded the AnTuTu benchmark test and ran it. When I first did this with this same phone six months ago, I achieved a score of around 50,000 but I ran the test again last night and scored 27,000. I had a friend run the test on his note 4, also about six months old, and he scored about 50,000. I also cannot connect to a Bose Soundlink Bluetooth speaker that I used to have no problems with (still with same note 4 unit) and I had to factory reset my android wear watch to get it to connect to my phone, another issue I've never had. On top of that, I can no longer get the phone to vibrate with the arrival of a text message. It will give a notification and sound, but no vibrate. These issues are frustrating, especially as the phone is only around six months old. Any help with this stuff would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spexwood:
I think the current and last few versions of Google Play Services have a battery drain bug. Google Play Services (which I'll abbreviate as GPS) is updated automatically via the Play Store, but you don't confirm the update like a normal app. So it basically updates without your knowledge.

My battery life was normal on my ATT Note 4 about 2 weeks ago, with Location always on (power saving), power saving mode on, bluetooth always on, and my Moto 360 connected. Lately though, the battery life has started dropping faster. I used to get home from work with about 75% battery left. Now I'm between 50 and 65%.

If GPS is indeed the issue, then all we can do is wait for Google to fix it in a newer version. You can uninstall the updates, or even manually install a certain version, but within about 24hrs, GPS will automatically update itself to the latest version again.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aaron R:
Thanks for the information! I didn't think of that. Would that cause my AnTuTu benchmark score to be low, as well? The phone just seems to lag sometimes and the benchmark score seems to be evidence that it's more than just my perception
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spexwood:
Maybe?

You can try uninstalling (which will downgrade to a very old version) GPS updates via settings-general-applications-all-google play services

You won't be able to properly use many Google apps while downgraded though, and GPS while probably auto update over night. But while downgraded, don't open Play Store and try Antutu again to see if there is any improvement. Run your phone like normal too and see if battery life improves. If all this is better, then it's definitely GPS.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aaron R:
Not sure what happened, but the benchmark score is back up (around 46000). Battery life has not gotten any better, and I'm having more Bluetooth problems, specifically with my LG g watch now. This is frustrating. Anybody have any idea? Would it be within the realm of possibility to get the phone replaced under warranty? I've only had it since February. I'm also having problems with text messages actually sending. They show as sent from my phone, but people don't receive them

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
I understand there are more than a few people who don't like the changes Android 5.0 brought to the table, but to expect developers to cater to a minority of a minority of the Android userbase is nothing more than wishful thinking. Why should Albe or any developer for that matter develop for an old version of Android? That would be like asking AntaresOne to continue support of CM11 after he released CM12. It's not going to happen.

You might as well upgrade now and get it over with, because your next device will have at least Android 5.x in it anyway. Holding off only delays the inevitable.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jam24ph:
Well.. it's upon him.. there is no problem with that.. if he can create then i could be thankful.. if not then ok.. it's just fine... i can still use his other roms.. or specifically the albe 3.0 note4 based rom.. im not forcing him to do that :) it is just my opinion.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
What you posted was a request, not an opinion. Even your statement that "some of us don't like Lollipop," while true, isn't an opinion. An opinion would be "Android 5.0.1 is bad because the white in Material Design hurts my eyes."

Your statement that "it's upon him" smacks of disappointment because he won't cater to you. But continue using Android 4.x while the rest of us go on to Marshmallow. You'll simply be left behind in the dust, like the 2015 Moto E.

Okay so this question may have already been asked. I have read as far back as I possibly can in the threads without drinking myself to sleep. I recently acquired myself a used tablet from a friend.

Can I root this, install a recovery and put fresh wifi software on this device.

[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robbie Doo:
If you don't pay for the service with Sprint, that makes your tablet kinda "WiFi only". There are only a few ROM's available for this tablet, though. At this time I'm using the CM, which is very light and fast. You may try and see if you like it.

[General Questions and Answers] BerryAl:
Hey guys.

Was recently reading up on Apple's new A9 processor and was slightly surprised to see it still used just 2 cores. However, the single-core performance of these bad boys is monstrous! And in my opinion, far more important than the multi-core scores when compared to 8-core processors from Qualcomm and Samsung. It's no secret that iOS generally does a lot of things much quicker (including generally better graphical performance) and also generally uses less power to do so than an Android device. I generally don't like Apple's products anymore, and this won't change anything. But they do things so darn well it's difficult to not give them credit where credit is due. The fact that the iPhone 6S has a battery size of about 1715mAH is insance when you think about Android phones with comparible battery lifes generally have batteries around 2500-2800mAH. That's a big difference. Is it largely down to iOS vs Android rather than the actual SoCs themselves? Or are Apple just amazing chip designers?

It reminds me of an AMD vs Intel debate, where AMD go for octa-core CPUs with super high clock speeds that tick all the boxes on paper, but then in reality are beaten out by even dual core offerings from Intel with lower or comparable clock speeds. Or when an 8MP camera on an iPhone beats out a 21MP camera on an Android phone. Time and time again manufacturers are more interested in the technical specs than the real life performance.

Any ideas?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] harrisonp:
So I recently tried to flash the rooted stock ROM here from AICP 10.0 in order to get a GPS lock and to attempt to add cards to Android Pay. This method didn't seem to take, because TWRP wouldn't verify the signature of the files.

So now, I'm looking for the most direct route to enabling both these things, then switching back to AICP. What is the best method to go about doing this? Could someone point me to the link to the stock OC5 tar, supersu & twrp builds that work well with this particular phone? I'm having a difficult time piecing everything together, even though I've used Odin in the past and flashed different roms on both the Nexus 5 and this phone.

I'm just not very experienced at moving back to stock, because I didn't face the particular issues I've faced with this phone.

Thanks,
