[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Holodoc Prime:
Thanks for the info! However I need help with the last part. I have no problem following up to the part about sending fastboot flash commands but what exactly does "Erase your data" mean? After I send the fastboot commands I am still in the bootloader screen. Do I proceed perhaps to the recovery mode to wipe/erase the cache? I am also wondering is it enough to just put the MOFD_SDUPDATE file in the root of the SD card? And do I need an unlocked bootloader to perform all these actions?

I understand that these questions might seem a bit noobish to experienced Android hackers but my experience on that field is limited to just doing one "unofficial" upgrade of my Nexus 4 to Lollipop so I would be grateful for any help.

EDIT: It seems I managed to figure out the correct order of things however when I reboot to bootloader I get the following error.

E:file path:/sdcard/MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip
E:failed to map file
SD installation aborted.

EDIT 2: It was actually an error on my end. I had my Windows set in a way to display file extensions so I accidentally named the file MOFD_SDUPDATE instead of MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip. Renaming the file did the trick.

I had to make a separate post just to thank you kanagawaben. Thanks! You are a life saver :victory: I've managed to successfully revert my phone to stock 2.20.40.90.

The best part is it resolves an issue with the proximity sensor which was obviously introduced with 2.20.40.97 (http://xdaforums.com/zenfone2/help/proximity-sensor-inconsistently-t3224700/)

Hey, a new firmware got released which is: "N9005ZSUGOI1". At the moment I've got "N9005XXUGBOI8". What's the difference between the two? I know the BOI8 has a newer build date, but never tried GOI1. Thanks.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stan_programmer:
Hello,

I've read and followed guides on this site to unlock, root and custom recovery.

Everything was well and fine, I drove over to Canada, took a bit longer than i thought it should've to get my roaming access, but it did it eventually.

When I crossed the border to go back home, I was unable and have been unable to get it to go back to Verizon service, I continue to get the roaming triangle with no success.

Android 5.1.1

TWRP v2.8.7.1

CyanogenMod 12.1-20151009-NIGHTLY-shamu

Kernel 3.10.40-gdd41a32

I've tried disabling roaming.

If i goto network operators i see Verizon listed, attempting to connect to it waits for a good amount of time, then reports that I cannot connect.

What's the best way to fix the problem?

I'm hanging out in the #android-root irc channel for advice as well.

Thanks,

Stan
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nhizzat:
Try reflashing the radio. If that doesn't work, a new nano-SIM?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stan_programmer:
Can you give me a bit more detail on reflashing the radio?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stan_programmer:
Okay so I did a bit of learning. Flashed the radio, it worked long enough for me to get two text messages that I guess were pending.

I thought I had succeeded but the phone quickly returned to the No Signal triangle.

So I booted into recovery and I ran the recovery for Cyanogen. Now my phone can connect to 3G, but is unable to get 4G LTE.

I'm about to try a different ROM, I chose BenzoRom.

I figure if that doesn't work I'll go back to a factory state.

Any other ideas?
[Sprint LG G4] theblackdawn:
Hey guys I just put my g4 on the the charger (standard usb) and now my screen is totally unresponsive and will not come on at all even after battery pulls and trying to get in to recovery. What do I do? Also this device is only a day old in mint condition. (Sprint gave me another one after the recall.)
[Sprint LG G4] kidfood:
I'm having the same problem starting yesterday. Phone is two months old And had no problems up until now. The only problem I had was it was in a boot loop because of sprint connections optimizer and I solved it by just fore quitting the app. This time, I didn't see this application and now my phone won't boot at all, not even in recovery mode. Starting to get fed up with Sprint in general.

[Xperia Z3v General] Mountainfisher:
Well since Verizon abandoned sony, I am abandoning this phone. I really did enjoy the phone, rooted it, installed ad-away. However I was climbing in between two carseats th other day and broke the back glass. I have also wanted a nexus phone. I am set too receive my nexus 5x next week. The phone is a hair smaller than this one and is very developer friendly. Yall have a gooden, I am keeping the Z3v for wild night outs and backpacking trips. I do need to fix my back glass and the charging port cover. If you have any sources for getting those fixed.
[Xperia Z3v General] DJ Sandman:
Same dilemma here with a different crack - top front. The status/notification bar is automatic when the phone is awakened and it's tough to maneuver around it. I was SOL on the Xperia launcher, but I reverted back to Nova and luckily, I can manage things better... though it's tedious and frustrating! This will prolly be my last carrier phone with "Big Head Red" and I am intrigued with the Nexus 6p, but I will hold judgment until U.S. reviews surface.

I'm also intrigued with the upcoming Droid Maxx 2 (aka Moto X Play) as long as Big Head Red doesn't mess with my UDP. They already have 2 strikes with a $20 increase to UDPs (I'm actually not hating that too much, but you know they'll eventually scrap 'em) and the second strike is for their horrible support on the Z3v. Lollipop was promised in "Early 2015" smh.

Back to the Maxx 2, I heard it may retail for $300 at the end of the month. For those interested, it's a mid-range Moto with a 5.5 inch/1080p display, and lesser specs with a SD 615 processor and 2 GB of RAM. The battery looks very good @ 3630 mAh, but Big Head Red's bloatware will take a big bite outta of that lol. FWIW - the Droid Turbo 2 is also due at the end of the month... better specs @ twice the price.

Alright, this seems really pathetic, but I've been using Swiftkey for the past few years. I decided to give the Google Keyboard a shot tonight just for the hell of it. I have a couple questions because a lot has changed since I've used it.

1: What's the difference in having the "Spell Checker" within the input setting on or off? Google Keyboard still seems to predict what you're trying to type.

2: I can't seem to enable the cloud sync for my predictions. I have a personal Google account and a business Google account syncing. My main account is the personal account, but the option to enable the cloud sync is greyed out. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

Please I don't know if amdoing something wrong or so ,but I noticed that my infinix hot 2 doesn't have any recovery so when I try flashing rom such as TWRP with apps like fkashify and rasdr it says flashing successful but when I reboot I still cannot enter recovery mode

Thanks in advance:)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArticK:
If you using ROM Infinix you should get Stock Recovery by default, but if you using ROM Android One you should unlock Recovery Button First.

You can use this file to unlock Recovery Button to log in Stock Recovery on ROM Android One, use Infinix Flashtool or newest SP flashtool to Install.

or if you want to flash TWRP Recovery you can read this post

Hope this will help you, :o :o

[XDA Assist] Dillon_Ray_:
Although I couldn't find any root methods for my galaxy S5 active I seen something about downgrading it to 4.4.2 to use towelroot. I ran into an internet problem trying to download the firmware, fixed that. Then Odin started having problems before it started downgrading. Is it possible to downgrade? Its running the OF3 bootloader and after doing some research I found some people saying it's locked and impossible to downgrade. So is it possible To downgrade a SM-G870A running the 5.0 lollipop update with the OF3 bootloader? Or is there some kind of root available for it? Or even someway to unlock the bootloader without losing all my data? I've been trying to figure something out for 3 days straight now.

Thanks.

[Nexus 6P General] TemporaryTester:
So, I've owned only Android devices since I began buying smartphones and tablets, but I really feel like very little has changed with regards to Android's performance ever since the Snapdragon 800 in 2013. Even the addition of more RAM and higher-spec processors hasn't really changed much about the AOSP experience, and my old (GPE-converted) Galaxy S4 still feels like I could throw most anything at it.

With the Nexus 6P finally bringing the last few things I really wanted in a mobile phone (the fingerprint sensor, metal, 1440p AMOLED, pure Android without compromising the camera, USB-C), I'm really thinking that this may be my last Android phone for a long while. I feel like, while equally unnecessary, the N6P will offer the pinnacle of stock Android, while rounding out the feature set of all I look for. I was debating whether to cheap out and buy a N5X for dev and general mucking about, but I think I will instead commit to getting the 6P for the above reasons.

My last upgrade to the G3 was almost unnecessary, even though I love the phone. I only upgraded, since my S4's power button broke and headphone jack got a bit wonky. Had that not happened, I think I'd be still using it today as my DD. I didn't even feel the itch to upgrade to any of this year's devices (except the Nexus phones and the buzz around the fp sensor and camera), and I've already had the device for more than a year.

While it may be an unpopular opinion around these parts, I think I may switch to an iPhone (probably the 7+) when my contract is up just to see how that platform improves over the next couple of years. A second GB of RAM totally changed that phone, which shows just how behind they are in some aspects, and where potential lies. I just don't see Android making any earth-shattering changes, mostly because it doesn't need to anymore. OEMs drive their own crap update cycle by bogging down their updates and the like, a problem which never existed on my GPE-converted S4, and won't exist on the Nexus.

Don't really know why I felt like making this post, but I did. :silly:
[Nexus 6P General] Exel:
I agree with you on certain points.

But remember,

You

did

something to your phone in order to be fast / smooth / etc. While we as a community continue to do this and find ways to improve everything.. Android (stock) has come a long way.

You reasoning for this is there is nothing really new on Android and Android phones haven't really evolved much but the same goes for iOS. This coming from someone who keeps going back and forth from Android to iOS. iOS is much more polished and needs less specs to run smooth, but you also have to remember they only have to worry about support their own hardware. And while yes, there has been phone upgrades from Apple (bigger screen, etc.), this is stuff Android has been doing for a long time.

It's kind of hard honestly.. after a certain point.. development / upgrades happen slower.. when jumping from phone to phone now, things don't seem like much of an upgrade. I think that's because we upgrade phones so often now, we don't notice the differences as much. But say you had to keep your S4 for another year without the ability to root / install a custom ROM, I'm sure you'd be all over the N6P.

While XDA has made Android development much bigger and contributed in a positive way, it has also kind of spoiled us and made us think the way you are.
[Nexus 6P General] WoodroweBones:
For me the big things that keep me on android are customization and the ability to do what I want with the phone (not what Apple or anyone else wants me to do). I would love to say this would be my last phone for a while but 2 things will prevent that....

1. I'm a tech junkie

2. Android support is 2 years
[Nexus 6P General] warplane95:
Well, the LG G3 isnt the best phone... you'll probably like the Nexus 6P a LOT!
[Nexus 6P General] SymbioticGenius:
I said that with the Nexus 6. I might still keep the Nexus 6 but I'm at least going to give the 6P a shot.
[Nexus 6P General] 640k:
I'm not far behind but not because Android vs Apple but because my life centers around MS products. I work in IT, exclusively with MS products. Why is my mobile device on a different ecosystem?

I'm excited for what MS has in store for their APIs that allow ios and Android apps to behave as if they're in their natural environment. I think this approach is going to flatten the playing field and OS will no longer matter.

Now if they could just make tech without built in obsolescion the market will start filling with devices that have purpose instead of purely consumerism. There WILL be a threshold of device waste that will force our hand.
[Nexus 6P General] bsg411:
Excel made some good points. And I too felt the same about not seeing much improvement from my phone but the continuous development thru ROMs makes it seems like the progress is small but it not....if you tally up the progress over the 1 year iPhone life cycle it is a lot of progress.

Google has too many things going on and unfortunately doesn't take the time to perfect their products except their search engine. They rather create a new product versus refining an existing one.

Imagine if google only had drive, no gmail, no G+, a tablet, one PC, and Android that ran on a single phone from one manufacturer....say LG. And Kept that same phone and just improved the hardware each year and the software as well....and diverted all other efforts towards perfecting that single device. That phone would be light years ahead of apple. Instead google has close to 200 products and services they wear themselves thin with. And tackling the immense task of attempting to make android run seemless and smooth on

Almost 19,000 devices instead of on just a handful of devices plus one phone is the difference between google and apple.

With that said and even with google continuing to expand like they do....I still think Google's android os running on top tier android devices will surpass IPhones in all aspects in couple years.
[Nexus 6P General] TemporaryTester:
Partially correct on the first point. It is fundamentally still "stock" (no kernel mods/custom features) on GPE firmware, but yes, I haven't tried stock since the original shipping firmware. I haven't rooted my phones since putting GPE on the S4. My Nexus 9, the G3, and the S4 all run unrooted, the former two of which are on stock firmware. The biggest pain about Android is debloating carrier crapware, a problem nonexistent on Nexus devices.

I feel like Android has matured to the point that there is little left to give. As far as supporting their own stuff, that's why I feel like the N6P would be the ultimate.

I agree, but customisation is so easy to do on Android without mods or root. The only other phone I was considering was the S6 edge +, which is also comparably restrictive. I just haven't felt the need to root since the S4.

An iPhone, on the other hand, I would be keen to jailbreak instantly. Quite a lot of interesting tweaks come out of Apple's "crack R&D team" (like swipeselection....), and jailbreaking is the only way to stay on that edge and get appropriate customisation.

I would also be using pretty much solely Google apps there anyway, since the default apps are kinda terrible.

But the diversity is the beauty of Google. The fact that they move the ecosystem forward and have a constant stream of novelty across their business is what helps them succeed. Android itself doesn't really need more improvement, is my argument. It's already there, and their job is to create new services to drive the platform.

Android as an OS already far exceeds that of iOS IMO, especially with Google Now. What I want to see is how Apple catches , since their platform seems to still be in flux (as far as performance and service delivery goes).
[Nexus 6P General] Elnrik:
You'll change your mind when they release the Nexus 14z, which will project it's 16k display directly to your brain, and be able to read your thoughts instead of having to speak "OK Google".

I'm serious, because Google will have perfected mind control by then and we'll all be drones.

All hail Masters Page and Brin, our merciful overlords!

Seriously though, I admire your pragmatic upgrade preferences on smartphones.
[Nexus 6P General] bsg411:
I agree with you the software is better but implementing all the services via the OS on a multitude of devices is a difficult task. However starting with this 6P nexus devices I think are on par with iPhone (hardware and software) and I bet will surpass the iPhone 7 next year.

I just wish they worked with one manufacturer to help perfect the hardware and built on a good hardware design instead of going back and forth with with hardware features and designs .....kinda like the 5x with 6P features.
[Nexus 6P General] CrashTestDroid:
If the 6P lives up to the hype, the improvements left are physics stuff: battery life, moar camera, lighter/thinner/stronger, waterproof, sapphire display.

That said, iPhones have been such a bitter disappointment since the Gingerbread days. I'm on Apple for the most part (MBr, iMac 5k) and would consider switching to iOS but the differentiators that custom Androids offer simply aren't there, or even possible. The current crop of crippled hardware is missing too much. When Apple makes a real retina display (eg AMOLED 2k) and loses the oversized HTC-ish bezels it'll be worth another look. Assuming Apple gives out widgets, call recording & MinMinGuard too.
