[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kashkool:
Dears,

Today after I wiped my data from TWRP I do restart my device (Tab S 10.5 T800 Lollipop Rooted) & I'm now stuck on Samsung Logo or Battery Logo (if I plug it with my computer).

Now how can I download a new firmware (through PC or External SD card), although I can't open download mode or recovery mode through (Volume Down+Home+Power)?

Thnx n Adv.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
Of course you can enter download mode or recovery mode, you just need to perform the correct steps.

Whether the tablet is off or stuck on boot screen: Hold POWER + VOL DOWN + POWER until download mode appears.

Also if you only wiped Data then let it boot, it takes 10mins at least.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kashkool:
I do this step many times; It back to the same screen (Samsung logo).

I think I had wiped everything (Data+System).

I read in this forum that : POWER + VOL DOWN + POWER, only works if the tablet is off. Is that right?

& how do I recover my android system after I wiped everything with TWRP?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
It doesn't matter what you wipe in twrp, you can wipe every partition and still boot to Download mode.

Honestly this is nothing but pilot error. Its all about timing and make sure you are firmly holding those buttons.

Boot the tablet up to the Samsung boot screen then hold POWER +VOL DOWN(not up!) + HOME until it restarts. Keep holding for about 5 secs afterwards and you should see download mode.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kashkool:
Really I do this step (holding POWER + VOL DOWN (not up!) + HOME until it restarts) many times; It back to the same screen (Samsung logo) or (Battery Logo) as attached.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexeyp:
Simple: Unplug your device and let complete discharge the battery. Then you have a black screen, plug it into USB, and let it charge until at least 15%. Then press and hold together three buttons: Home+Volume Down+Power (better, in that order).
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
Agreed, best in that order and how I do it. :thumbup: Like I say 99% pilot error.

I have probably soft bricked this device in every way possible countless times (comes with the territory when building) and not once had an issue getting to download mode.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SageofRage:
Hi

I recently tried to install a theme from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/note-4/themes-apps/theme-systemui-themes-n910u-5-0-1-t3097608

for my note 4 910F.

I did all the steps (Copyd the apk, changed permissions to 644 than overwrote the original system ui apk, i made a backup of it, also have titanium backup)

after the install my phone now comes up with the msg Unfortunately systemui has stopped, every like 5 seconds.

i tried titaniums restore, wiping the cache from twrp and than a factory reset from twrp, but to no avail i fear i have broken my device any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Bear in mind that i rooted the phone yesterday so im new to this.

Thank you

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SageofRage:
Thank you very much it worked perfectly.. even upgraded to 5.1.1 :)

I have a few questions tho as im new to this: I messed around with it more before flashing the stock ROM and heres what i did. Managed to push the original systemUI.apk on the modified one, that resulted in my top statusbar dissapearing, but there were no more popups of systemui crashing. However i notice that the systemUI.apk is now not installed at all... atleast the phone does not recognizes it as already on the device So next i manually installed the systemUI apk, the original one. It went trough with the install but then the phone completely broke and any animation froze it. After that i did what u suggested.

So my questions are: What did i wrong when installing the custom theme ?

Why didn't pushing the original back/installing the original work ?

Why didn't i loose any of my apps photos contact details after installing the new Firmware ? (still have everything... not complaining its just weird how a new op system install didn't wipe my data)

Thank you so much again for Your great suggestion.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnsonS2:
Hi there

Im running an Galaxy S2 I9100T and I have added Neatrom 4.4.4 and it's mostly working fine ......however there are two major issues and one minor issue that I cannot seem to fix. I'm guessing they have the same cause and hopefully the same solution.....

1. I cannot receive any calls. If you try to ring me it will ring and sound like you have connected but my handset will be silent and there will be no indication that anyone is calling. There will be no missed call either. Nothing.

2. If I make a call I cannot hang up. I have to reboot the phone after each call.

3. The minor issue is that the battery drains extremely fast on the new ROM.

Any assistance would be really greatly appreciated

Cheers

John
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GreekDragon:
I john, maybe im wrong but NeatRom 4.4.4 on I9100T version is all wrong... so.. you should flash Roms that is provided in T version, flashing I9100 Rom on T version you will have problems.

[General Questions and Answers] jnbig3:
Hi guys, I recently just flashed CM 12.1 w/ Android 5.1.1 on my Zenfone 2.

Before doing that, I backed up my apps+data using Titanium Backup. After flashing, I transferred back the Titanium Backup folder in the internal storage where it originally was. I then re-installed Titanium Backup. Unfortunately, there's 0 apps that can be restored according to Titanium Backup. I even checked the Storage location and it even showed my backups.

Help ASAP. TIA
[General Questions and Answers] droid_god:
Install the apps before backup. It might work.
[General Questions and Answers] jnbig3:
Nevermind, just found out that my backups were corrupted. Anyways, is there anyway to restore the data of the apps instead? I dont mind re-downloading the apps again as long as I can get my data back

In the titanium backup.

One off the two zips will have you apk inside. Just open the zip and install the apk

Hi there...how did you solve the problem?

I also have the same problem...I backed everything up then flashed cyanogenmod Marshmallow 6.0.1 then after flash copied all the backup folder back to internal memory so it can be seen by Titanium backup app and still doesn't work...it doesn't see anything...although it sees the location and the files under titanium backup/preferences/Backup Settings...Backup Folder Location..but in the app I cannot see any of the apps I backed up...how can I solve the problem..please help me:)
[General Questions and Answers] Dxue:
i think titanium needs to be updated to the latest version. the older version somehow doesn't work and don't see the backups properly (on my stock z3c pre rooted rom). after I installed the latest version, it worked like a charm

WARNING: Titanium doesn't backup the media folder for Whatsapp nor Wechat. backup the media that you want manually before flashing. the chatlogs are backed up properly

[General Questions and Answers] ky0q:
Hi Everyone :)

Sorry for digging up an old topic but I have a very similar situation and almost got gray hair already ;)

Did anyone found a solution to the issue from opening post ?

Here's what I have done (and already regret it;)

- I was on stock 5.1.1 android for xperia z1 compact D5503

- I have installed Kingroot to remove some bloatware applications through titanium backup.

- Then I have made a backup of all applications of my interest (sms/mms, k9-mail etc.) and copied that to a folder on external sd card.

- Then I came over idea of Pre-rooted stock roms. Performed that (downgrade to 4.4.4, root, dual recovery, instal pre-rooted rom from zip).

- Installed TiBackup, copied all backups from sd to internal memory.

- Opened TiBackup - mind blown - no apps with backups.. In Preferences - Folder backups are shown.

Any ideas? Corrupted backups? That would make me very sad :)

Any help much appreciated.

[General Questions and Answers] ky0q:
OK,

I have solved the riddle. So easy and obvious that I didn't notice.

When I was doing all the stuff from the post above I was using sd card reader.

So to be on the safe side - i have copied all SD card content to win10 PC.

Then when I thought I was ready - copied all to 1 folder "Stuff" and then to SD card.

What I have missed was that during that process file extensions were changed. So all *.properties were now *.properties.txt and all *.bzip were *.bzip.zip and so on.

So my problem is solved. Perhaps someone else could use it too.

Best regards

Hey friends,

So i've actually bought the Xperia Z5 Compact, and was trying for a day or two. Everything seemed fine until i noticed that the internals of the IPS screen is very visible in normal or bright sunlight. Check the image attached. There are some lines appearing which seems to be the IPS screen internals right? Is this appearing for all Z5C's, or its an issue. It doesnnt bother me normally, but it is very noticeable under daylight or direct sunlight. Should i be worried?

This is normal, its a some kind of grid that is used to help with glove mode on, so the touchscreen can react to your touch with gloves on your hands.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Taylor white 0911:
It seems that many people have the experience of phone screen broken. And some people said they have broken the screen more than once. A report said that almost half of the people would buy a new phone when the old one cracked. And 30%, who most of then use the high-end handsets like Apple and Samsung would try to replace the screen at a high price. The others are indifferent to the phone although the phone cannot work perfectly.

Well, I think if you want to save money in replacing the phone screen, buy the phone parts and fix it buy yourself is another great way. What do you do if your phone is broken?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khan1996:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jasmine1012:
Replace it!

Last time I dropped my HTC one VX and have my phone screen broken. I took it to the maintenance station to replace the LCD screen, but they ask for $150. I said I might as well to buy a new one. When I back home, my colleague told me that he can repair it for me. At last he helped me to fix it up. It seems not difficult and just to repair the phone. And it only cost me about $30 to buy the HTC LCD screen. I have to remind myself that don’t break my phone any more.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _gps_:
Hi all,

The Scenario

We have a bluetooth hardware device that needs to be accessed from a box (owned by client) running Android 5.1.

Box will run a customized version of Android 5.1.

The device works with vendor specific HID reports.

Changes to ROM to allow device to work are allowable.

Attempt 1:

BluetoothInputDevice + HidService

This is a hidden interface in AOSP that can provide raw hid access to bluetooth hid devices. HidService should throw intents containing received reports, and accepts reports through a "Send report" method.

Unfortunately, it didn't work for me at all. I was unable to receive any HID reports.

Attempt 2:

/dev/hidraw0 + /system/bin/hidrawservice + /system/lib/libhidrawservice.so + external/HidRawAccess/HidRawAccess.java

Here, I thought to create a native executable service hidrawservice called from init.rc with elevated privilege to access /dev/hidraw0

hidrawservice exposes its own interface for /dev/hidraw0 (maybe through a unix socket)

A java + native android service comprising libhidrawservice.so and HidRawAccess.java that exposes direct methods for hidrawservice to android java apps.

The Problems:

for 1, I could never receive any HID reports at all in my app. More details: [I cannot post links here, Sorry. Please search stackoverflow with bluetooth hid host. ]

Specifically, I observe Bluedroid doesn't call any callbacks in jni code of HidService when reports are received.

for 2, I am stuck with SELinux. I can verify that through /dev/hidraw0 the HID reports are accessible. hidrawservice when run from adb shell captures reports. But when I start it from init.rc, Its not able to access /dev/hidraw0

I don't have any prior experience on SELinux policies so if anyone could guide me, would be extremely helpful.

I am seeking community help for either of those. I am also open to any suggestions towards this. I am not seeking to disable SELinux.

If it helps, for now, I am developing with a Nexus 7 2013 tablet, And AOSP is 5.1.1_r14, LMY48G.

Yes, US has been the very last region to update both times, so far, and I expect it will be again this time, too. The second update didn't take long at all to get to every US user, though, once the US update pushed. By the time I got my notification everyone else already had it and the update URL was all but pointless. I'm not really all that concerned with getting this one, but man I hope that 6.0 update hits every region fast. We're building a larger user base now, though, so maybe we'll get lucky and XDA members from each region will be among the early people to get the push notification.

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yoda947:
Hi all,

I own a brand new Galaxy S6 Edge, SM-G925F, bought just 3 days ago in European Union/

Germany.

It has installed the latest Samsung Stock:

Android version: 5.1.1

Base band version: G925FXXU3COI9

Build number: LMY47X.G925FXXU3COI9

Security Software: MDF v2.0 Release 3 und VPN v1.4 Release 5.2

Latest Stock: G925FXXU3COI9_G925FDBT3COI6_DBT.zip

After updating OTA to the latest stock I tried to root the phone.

First of all I have flashed TWRP 2.8.7.1 via Odin 3.10.6. Then I have installed

Hacker Kernel V5 and XPosed v75.8 by WANAM (20151030) (using TWRP).

After finishing configuring the phone I have seen the next day that my akku has

been eaten and found out that the phone *never* enters deep sleep mode.

As soon as I go back to Stock ROM, Stock Kernel, Stock Recovery

(G925FXXU3COI9_G925FDBT3COI6_DBT.zip), deep sleep mode is working instantly

(controlled with CPU Spy).

What I have done without success to solve the problem:

1. using TWRP Advanced Wipe: erasingDalvik Cache, Cache several times

2. trying the solutions from zidroid (fix-battery-drain-and-deep-sleep-issue-on-galaxy-s6-and-s6-edge)

Method 1 (zip file flasing and Method 2 (terminal).

Both in several combinations with different kernels, alternative ROM, stock ROM,

root only (flashing kernel using Odin without TWRP)

3. trying differenz kernels:

- Hacker Kernel v4, v5

- UniKernel v8

- AELMultiVariant_v2_9_311015

4. trying the kernels without custom recovery, i.e. first flashing stock ROM, then

flashing the kernels directly using Odin.

5. trying the next solution that I have found in the forum:

first stock firmware again, then TWRP, then kernel (for root). Afterwards extracting stock

recovery image from G925FXXU3COI9_G925FDBT3COI6_DBT.zip, flashing this one only.

Running stock recovery, erasing cache, reboot (repeated several times).

Again no deep sleep.

6. first stock firmware again, then flashing TWRP and CarHDRom_V.14_3COJH.

All these tries without XPosed framework, starting from a fresh installed stock system

(i.e. resetting the whole phone to default, then erasing/formatting everything (without

EFS) from TWRP, then flashing stock recovery, kernel, ROM (G925FXXU3COI9_G925FDBT3COI6_DBT.zip)

by Odin.

Even tried everything without a SIM card.

As soon as I flash something (kernel only, TWRP only, combinations or complete ROM) the

phone never enters deep sleep mode. In "best" case it is working with 200 Mhz only.

Can this be a problem with Samsung's latest boot loader?

Thanks for your assistance!
