[LG G Stylo Questions & Answers] lerner17:
I know it's an older thread but I was wondering the same thing and came across this. http://www.vcpost.com/articles/97041/20151007/android-6-0-marshmallow-update-confirmed-coming-lg-g-stylo.htm

Looks like those of us not on a ROM should get an OTA by the end of the year. Since I'm on the Katana ROM I will be patiently waiting for something custom or for an official release of a kdz
[LG G Stylo Questions & Answers] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
there are no official KDZ...apparently it's just some works that leak the stock firmware...when they can, hence why not every carrier get's the love of KDZ

now I understand why my call recording software did not work..obviously it might not be supported in lollipop.. ?
[Ascend Mate 7 General] chudy_85:
Only China firmware support call recording. They put this function because they can record but in Europe it's not legal. But when you use this file you can record call. Open dial pad go to setting and you find this option

is this some kind of new law or something ?

I think it is stupid ? I always record all my calls so I can go back cause sometimes I do not remember all the details are person said in a certain phone call and you can go back and listen again.
[Ascend Mate 7 General] chudy_85:
In Poland we can record but only when person say yes you can I can record. In my country we have stupid law. Do you try this mode

I hope we can figure out a way to to this wihtout root. Many times when I get phone calls I do not pay much attention cause I know I can always go back and listen to the phone call later..

Have you tried all different apps on google play etc ? are you sure non work ?

[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geektbee:
Okay, so I've searched and searched and searched, but still am stuck; so I'm posting.

I have a rooted Droid Mini XT1030, KitKat 4.4.4 SU6-7.2.

It still has the locked bootloader, though. My question is: Does the device need to have it's bootloader unlocked for /system/media/bootanimation.zip to stay permanently to what I set it as?

I ask, because, I can replace the zip with a different one and then perform a Soft Reboot with Xposed, and the boot animation works beautifully.... but only one time; a subsequent Soft Reboot puts the unit in a never-boot state. Upon any standard Reboot, the first boot typically returns with the generic silver "android" animation and never boots, and then I hard power off, and the original "Drooiiidt" animation returns at second boot.

Yes, I've set permissions on the zip to 644 (and even 544, and even 000!).

Yes, I'm in permissive mode.

Yes, I have a rooted device (albeit for a seemingly short time, keep reading), per the post here and RootJunky's series.

Yes, I have SuperSU.

All checkers (SuperSU checker, Root checker, BusyBox checker) show green lights everywhere.

And as an added bonus, I've noticed that after about 25-45 seconds of making any changes in (at least) /system, the device seems to forget that I had root access and I have to perform a Soft Reboot to get the mount back to rw. So, when I copy the zip file over the one in /system/media, my heart rate speeds up because my fingers have to move so fast to get permissions set correctly after pasting the file. This makes me wonder if I've installed some thing somewhere incorrectly; but I have root access for a time so at least I know the animation file looks nice. But, then to get the unit back to the way I like it (rabbit trail here), I have to open Xposed, install framework, hit cancel, and then hit Soft Reboot. Then I can start experimenting again. I have tried the zip file xfer thing after a standard reboot as well, but it's immediately reverting back to standard boot animation without even acting like I made any changes anywhere.

But I'm experimented out and the only thing next I can think of is that the bootloader is changing the zip back and needs to be unlocked to stop it...... unless someone else can come up with any other theories.... ?
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mushbert:
Hi geektbee, I know this is an old post but maybe you haven't solved this yet. Also, I'm fairly new to Android myself so I'm not sure this explanation will be entirely correct.

To permanently change anything in the system area you must disable system write-protect. This is not the same as gaining root or unlocking the bootloader, however, as of the last time I checked, the only way to accomplish it on these devices IS to unlock the bootloader. Sadly, as your device is running 4.4.4, you do not have this option.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geektbee:
Well.... bummer. Thanks for the clarification.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SifJar:
I am wondering if there is a way to modify the Facebook APK to get contact sync working without modifying ContactProvider.apk as I am using a non rooted phone and don't want to root just for this. In the past I have used HaxSync but with the latest Facebook APIs that no longer works.

Is it simply a case of adding the WRITE_CONTACTS permission to the Facebook APK and if so is that (easily) possible?

Thanks for any help, if there is a better subforum for this type of thing please let me know also, thanks.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
I don't believe it is app specific, it's through their servers, if I understand the problem correctly. The only thing I have seen from the apps that used to work is they say the contact has to grant permission to let them sync the info before it will work. This seems like just modding the app will not be enough to help accomplish what you are trying to do.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SifJar:
For third party apps, (e.g. HaxSync, UberSync etc.) what you're saying is true. These apps no longer function due to server side changes by Facebook in the form of updated APIs (as I mentioned in the OP).

However I am talking about the official Facebook app. With this app, the contact sync still works perfectly, on ROMs where ContactsProvider.apk is modified to explicitly grant permission to the Facebook app (com.facebook.katana) to write contacts, without the app itself requiring the permission that every other app needs. OEMs such as Samsung modify ContactsProvider.apk in this way so as to allow Facebook to sync (by basically adding an exception to the permission check). There are also flashable mods for custom ROMs, as well as an Xposed module which performs this task. Obviously these require unlocked bootloader & custom recovery, or root & Xposed respectively.

However, I believe that if the app itself is modified to require this permission (i.e. android.permission.WRITE_CONTACTS, it should also work, without requiring an exception in ContactsProvider.apk.

The reason modifying ContactsProvider is "preferred" by most is that doing it that way allows the app to be installed from the Play store and thus maintain auto-updates, whereas if you modify the APK you no longer get auto-updates, and would have to manually update. But that's worth it to me to get contact syncing working.

EDIT: On closer inspection, it may be more complicated than I thought. The Facebook app already has this permission, there must be something else preventing it from functioning. I still believe it is possible to get it working simply by modifying the APK, but it is likely beyond my capabilities.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dexter_S:
Actually this fiasco started a couple of years ago. When Facebook & Google had a spat over data sharing. Facebook app has the support to sync contacts. But it is not natively supported. It is just a matter of 0 & 1. But OEM like Samsung, HTC have made contract with Facebook individually, so it is supported on those phones.

For syncing, if you are rooted you can use an Xposed module here in XDA. It's something like Xfbmod. And for the apps, Sync.me still works like a charm. I used it just a while ago.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SifJar:
I've seen a few forum posts referencing things along these lines, but I have found absolutely zero concrete evidence of such a "spat". There is nothing in Android to specifically disallow FB syncing, the OEMs that support it have modified the framework to explicitly grant the app permission. For a reference on this, check the CM gerrit issue about this. To quote Steve Klondik (founder of CM) on this:

The OEMs have decided to make a workaround, for their users benefit. Not because they have some contract, of which I have seen no evidence. The issue is with Facebook's app and their refusal to fix the issue.

As I mentioned in the OP if you bothered to read it, I am not rooted and do not want to be, and am also fully aware of the Xposed module.

As for Sync.ME, I installed it the other day and it asked straight away to upload all my contact data to their servers. It's not my place to put the details of my friends and family in the hands of some company I'm not particularly familiar with.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArmsAsuncion:
Tip: Installing Facebook APK version 28 or lower will give you the ability to sync contacts again. Updating to the latest version will still allow you to sync for a limited amount of time until it re-downloads updated configuration files (I think?). So I think the problem is just some config or database file disabling the feature.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SifJar:
I installed version 28 and got no option to sync. Are you on AOSP or some OEM/custom ROM? Version 28 was released long after sync stopped working on the official FB app for myself and many other people.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArmsAsuncion:
I'm using Samsung Note 4 official rom. Try older ones? Mine doesn't have sync if I use versions above 28. It stopped working for me around October 1st week (Version 49). So when I want to sync, I have a titanuim backup of my version 24 data and just restore it (without restoring app itself). That way I can sync for a few minutes until the menu disappears again.

Edit: read the whole thread and I see that the problem was on other roms only. But nevertheless, Facebook disabled contacts syncing for all phones now since around version 40+. Only way to make it work is to downgrade or the steps I used above.

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t000x:
Hey,

since a few days, I'm not able to access 3G/LTE anymore in Germany with European G4 H815. Bootloader is unlocked (so no warranty for me).

I already reflashed it with KDZ with CSE flash, also tried to enable/reflash LTE Bands described here:

http://xdaforums.com/g4/general/guide-enabling-lte-bands-t3137818

2G/GSM/Edge is possible, not more. Forcing the network to use 3G only results in no connection to the network.

Tried also swapping SIM cards with my GFs smartphone, her SIM card can also only get GSM in my G4, my SIM card can easily get H+ on her smartphone.

May this be a defective modem, or maybe a software bug? I flashed Genisys Rom, now back to stock.

Help would be greatly appreciated! :) Any thoughts?

Kind regards

Have you tried erasing and then adding in a new APN? If it worked prior this would be a good starting place

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t000x:
Hey,

I tried it, but could not click Phone Info. Error message is:

This application does not work on this device.

:(

When I first rooted the G4, I backuped all system partitions. Maybe I should try to revert them all? I already tried to restore MODEM, MODEMST1 and MODEMST2.

Or could this be dangerous?

Kind regards
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Yeah same with my wife's phone, it's strange were locked out there..

Restoring those partitions shouldn't hurt anything but I'm not very familiar with this phone so can't attest to anything for sure and the wife is on holiday so I can't check her phone

When you went through apns, did you try to first erase them all completely? If not try that, then make a new one
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t000x:
Yeah, I've got only one APN. I also requested a new one by my provider via SMS.

I wonder if the modem itself is defective. Maybe it got fried by wireless charging, I'm using a chinese Qi-Sticker and replaced the original one.

Are you using wireless charging?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
No, just a cheap dock, but as far as I know that won't fry the internals or interfere with the radio at all

The reason I keep asking if you fully erased all apns and start over is I had to do this with a 2013 motox when it switched to lollipop, for some reason all apns had to be erased and then readded to get lte/3g to work again, the phone was stuck on edge just like yours
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t000x:
Okay, I found out by chance today, that there is 3G/HSPA reception possible. I was standing outside 100m away from a cell tower, and had medium reception. Maybe there is a problem with the internal antenna?

Oh, and by the way, I can see LTE network here at home (but no HSPA), but don't have a LTE contract, so I can't connect to it.

Maybe next time, when you are next to a cell tower, you try it yourself?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t000x:
I haven't found a solution.

LG refuses to repair to my G4 for free, but I buyed the phone at Amazon (De). I called the hotline, they cover the warranty for 2 years, so today I sent the phone in for repair.

I'll keep you updated if Amazon repairs it despite the bootloader being unlocked (I told them before).

Sorry I couldn't offer a technical solution for anyone with the same problem :(
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t000x:
This is what happened in the meantime:

I sent the phone to an Amazon Partner Service Center. They refused to repair it under warranty - Bootloader unlocked. They offered me to replace the motherboard with a new one - 283€ incl shipping :mad:

After that offer, I called Amazon that their partner would not repair the phone under warranty.

They then sent me a brand new G4 for free! After I already had received the new unit from Amazon, of course I had to send back the defective G4 (when it came 10 days later from the repair service).
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hasenbolle:
My friend has exactly the same problem.

Bootloader is unlocked. Tried to go back to stock MM 20c firmware from Imperium v1 Rom, but that didn't work. Also no update to 20d is offered by LG. If i force to use 3G, the phone can't connect to the cell network. Only edge does work. APN looks also good. Furthermore i tried to flash a new/other modem, but that didn't work also :/

Does someone have any suggestions to fix this problem?

[MENTION=3309102]t000x[/MENTION]: Was unlocked bootloader and therefore no warranty no problem for amazon.de?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t000x:
Hi hasenbolle,

try restoring the firmware first, before shipping it back:

http://xdaforums.com/g4/general/guide-lg-g4-stock-firmware-to-stock-kdz-t3107848

Yes, Amazon gave me a new unit despite the bootloader being unlocked.

But first I had to send it to their partner service Center and wait a few days.

Good luck with that phone.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] anantk1965:
I am seen huge battery drain on Nexus 7 2013 after flashing Android 6.0 factory image. Even battery usage option screen gives strange result. For example -- Total battery % used by all the apps just show 9%, while total battery left is only 73% after fully charging of 100%. So where is the remaining battery of 18% gone, which is not even showing up in battery uses option screen?

Attached herewith is screenshot of battery usage screen. And I really notice huge battery drain with Android 6.0 as compared to earlier Android 5.1.1.

Please help and let me know.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] just lou:
You're estimated time left @73% is 3 days, which means your tablet has been on and not charged in awhile. Nothing in your battery stats indicates any battery drain at all.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] anantk1965:
It just says 3 days remaining. But practically this never happens. Now overnight there is 30% battery drain without having used the tablet and it says now 43% battery remaining and one day left. And total usage mentioned by apps in battery usage screen is not even more than 15% now also. And if you add actual battery usage of all apps by clicking the indivisual battery usage details, total usage is not even 500 mAh. I believe Total Nexus 7 battery capacity is around 4000mAh.

So where is the battery use and drain is happening? This behavior I am seeing is after upgrading to Android 6.0.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] CapnBry:
I've got quite a bit of mystery drain as well. It runs flat for a little while when the display is off and it is idle for a long time, then suddenly it will just start draining ~2% per hour. The wifi lists as always on even though the policy is "Never". I have location services off, bluetooth off, NFC is off. Even more fun I put the tablet down 2 days ago at 75% battery and I picked it up this morning I picked it up and it was dead. No battery log at all either.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] just lou:
Hmm. I'm running stock rooted with ElementalX, and haven't had any battery issues.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] kneep:
Exactly the same issue here. Battery drains fast but battery stats shows no abnormality. I work for an Android phone manufacturer. My colleague who is in charge of the battery thing guesses some hardware module might have current leakage in sleep mode which software cannot detect.

I have wiped cache partition and now see massive battery usage by WiFi after overnight. Looks to be problem stated in the thread https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/nexus/NB0izQHuBaU;context-place=forum/nexus

Though this issue is raised for Nexus 5, I think it applies to Nexus 7 2013 Android 6.0 also.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] MobileBritain:
You are not alone. My Nexus 7 is currently chewing through it's battery at a rate of knots. Even with the screen off it continues to use the battery as if it were on all the time. After wiping the cache partition things have become even weirder. Apps that have not been opened are using large percentages of the battery. I can barely get a few screen hours out of it.

Wondering if this thread has so few replies because people are checking the general section and seeing nothing about the issue so think it's just them?

The information on battery usage is so weird it's hard to believe that it's producing any useful or meaningful data.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] anantk1965:
Even I am surprised that no battery drain issue for Android 6.0 is reported for Nexus 7 2013 in this forum and not many members have replied to this thread.

Anyway for me it is a serious issue with absolutely no advantage in any sense for upgrading from Android 5.1.1 to Android 6.0 for Nexus 7 2013.

Here is one more screenshot of battery drain with no battery accounted for 27% (48% total battery drained - 21% battery used by apps reporting in attached screenshot).

I hope at least Google Android team is aware of this issue and knows how to resolve it.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] mertzi:
I'm seeing great battery life now without root and Greenify or any third party solution but I have problems with the stats. If I let my n7 drain completely and charge it to 100% while shutdown I get +10h SOT (lowest brightness) but if I charge it from 1% without being shutdown I only get 8h SOT. Huge inconsistency in the stats, it's like the system misinterprets the stats and need a reset after every charge.
