[ZTE Blade S6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] stefan.sp:
External SD via USB is not writable?

I installed the last version (cm-12.1-20160210-UNOFFICIAL-p839f30) and everything works fine. The partition mod is great and worked with my Blade AS. I have only two problems left:

1. the known flashlight issue

--> Has someone tried to use the original zte camera app?

--> I tried camery zoom fx, but didn't work either.

--> Is there a workaround to fix it?

2. I cannot write to the external SD card

This is really annoying. I tried to mount the card as USB mass storage device. Then i can delete files and folders with my PC, but I am not able to copy files to the card nor create new folders.

I used the mtp with the same effect. But with mtp I was able to copy files to the internal memory.

Is there a workaround for this problem?

Thanks and greetnx from Germany

Hi,

so I did everything OP said a couple days ago and it worked out perfect! The worst problems of stock are fixed (GPS, annoying notification light, stupid partitioning sceme of ZTE, ...).

Thanks a lot lightwars and everyone who made this possible :)

flash light is working

Hi folks,

I am not sure, how it worked, but the flashlight of the camery is working since i tried to install the original zte camery app.

I took an old twrp backup of the original zte rom and extracted the zte camery apk.

(twrp --> restore old backup, use titanium, make a backup, extract com.zte.camera.apk from gz file, twrp --> restore backup of lightwars CM12.1, install zte camery apk)

the camery app itself dont work and i get only error messages, thats why I hided the icon in nova launcher.

But since the, the flash is working. I have no glue why... I attached the apk.

so for me everything is fine now.

Thanks again to all contributors

Random rebooting

FIXED! Not sure what I did this time but I did a format, factory reset, reinstalled the rom again cleared all the cache again and it works now. Not sure what was going on or why this 5th reinstall worked but it works now.

This has also fixed the camera problem.

Cheers!

Hello,

Was please to finally see a replacement rom for this phone. I finally got it installed after a lot of trying but I have a problem. I have repartitioned the phone at it is showing as 11.41GB so I think that worked ok.

The phone freezes and reboots randomly after anything from a few seconds to a minute once its on. If I have the phone connected to my pc via USB it does not do this and it works ok.

Secondly the camera is all rainbow colours, its like some trippy 60s acid trip. When you take a photo they are all weird rainbow colours too.

Does anyone have any suggestions? I have no idea if I used the right kernal/TWRP. I got confused with the whole EU/AU/AS thing. I am not sure what I have, I am in the UK but bought the phone on eBay.
[ZTE Blade S6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] DStyl3:
To give u some information about the phone

When you wanna now which kernel u have to flash, check your Firmware in Settings/About The Phone

When the build is named ZTE-AS or something like that, you have the AS Version.

EU Version is something like ZTE -EU and AU ZTE-AU

Hope that I could help!

Works on japanese version

I have the Japanese version (goo g03) but it shows as Blade S in the stock rom. Bit of a hiccup at first. Got the bootloop using the stock AS kernel. Tried the AU kernel and my camera gives the rainbow colors. Tried EU kernel and it finally fixed the camera problem. Rom works perfectly!
[ZTE Blade S6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Malc76:
I think the recovery you use makes a difference. I initially used the emulated and some things didn't work like video. But using the physical IMG I can get video playback through uc browser.
[ZTE Blade S6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] lightwars:
Interesting finds... a user with AU variant reported also that the camera was not working correctly and had this color thing. So maybe camera could be working correct with an other kernel...?! At first I thought there are hardware differences in how zte connected the camera in AU variant.

OK, someone is willingly to sell me a Tab Pro 8.4 for a good price. Now everything works well, except for small fly in the ointment. He said while heavy gaming sometimes the tablet reboots. SO not sure if this is a software or hardware issue?
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] Sicron:
I have personally never had this problem, nor have I ever heard of other people getting this problem. The 8.4 can get pretty hot on the left side in the middle, where I assume the processor is located, though. Seems like a hardware problem specific to that tablet though, maybe a bad batch of CPU's.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] rirawin:
Nor have I, seller says everything works just really heavy gaming that its rebooted at times.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] otyg:
Shouldn't reboot, the tablet has thermal monitoring and will down-clock the cpu if it gets too hot, it could be a software issue or a problem with knox as that is known to reboot the tablet...

maybe it was a return and someone installed a custom firmware then flashed it back to stock.

Though can't really rule out the possibility of a buggy game, some apps such as reicast will cause this tablet to reboot due to a kernel bug / snapdragon bug (on stock firmware).
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] DarkLTU:
I have tab 8.4 and it heats fast when I play some racing or 3D games (example Asphalt 8, NFS:MW,Roblox,Minecraft,etc) or even if I watch YouTube videos on 1080p60 or 4K for about 10mins. And when it overheats, performance is worse than not overheated(on YouTube, not a big effect). That thing is only when I play that game or watch that video. Can I somehow make it not overheat without losing performance?
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] otyg:
if you are rooted you can downclock the cpu or limit the number of cores active at one time.

Turning the screen brightness down can help too.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] DarkLTU:
I am NOT rooted, brightness is about 20%.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] SuccubusInc:
Poking around with the kernel, and experiencing this myself, the cores are pretty hefty and can generate some heat under full power. The GPU is not so hefty, so can generate heat when overworked (e.g., by playing games). It underclocks itself to protect against overheating, but of it gets to a certain temperature, it will restart to remove the load on the cores and stop the generation of heat. There is nothing adversely wrong with your device. That's supposed to happen. Trust me. I have had the Tab Pro for a while.
[XDA Assist] zeet22:
Hi,

I accidentally deleted the whole gallery of photos, probably located in DCIM inside the internal memory of my s5.

Right after that, I removed my sim card and use a backup phone I had. The only new things I added in is to root the phone and try to recover the photos. Tried using several recovery software from both my PC and my phone but they did not recover any of the deleted photos.

I then follow this thread http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-nexus/general/guide-internal-memory-data-recovery-yes-t1994705

which gave me the same results. All I recover were stuff used by other applications like watsapp etc.

Would like to know if there is any way that I can recover the photos?

Thank you

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] philliplavelle:
Hi there,

I have an issue which is really coming between me and my sleep.

Here's where I'm at - I have been using an iPhone 6S Plus for a few months which I think is a great phone. But I'm a mobile geek. And I bore easily. And I love Android Wear. I have an S6 Edge Plus which was a loan from Samsung (which they haven't asked back) and I really like the idea of it becoming my daily driver. I'm fully bought into Android as well as iOS as I've been flip flopping between the two OS' for years. And I love the openness of it.

BUT - there is one thing that is stopping me and that is this:

I do a lot of driving for work and I have a great setup with my stereo system, It connects via Bluetooth audio, I can just yell 'Hey Siri' and tell it to, say, 'play music by Louis Armstrong' and with the tight integration with Apple Music and it plays it well. I don't have to take my hands off the wheel and it streams the song within a second or two.

I've always thought Google Now much better, but I have real issues with getting it to play music. I have Spotify installed and I've also added Google Play Music Premium but Samsung appears to have crippled this a bit.. You have to have the phone charging for it to work with the screen off (no biggie - I have a charge in my car), but if I tell it to play music, it says 'OK' and then it does nothing. I have to then unlock the screen before it actually completes the command. Which obviously negates the whole point. I may as well pull over every song and manually do it.

I can't stress how frustrating this is. What I want to do is just be able to say 'OK Google, Play Madonna Holiday' and for it to play the song. Not for me to have to say that, then unlock the phone and repeat all over again.

Some points:

* All voice recognition options in the 'voice detection' settings are enabled.

* When I say 'unlock', I mean get past the lock screen. I have the S6 Edge Plus set up with both my stereo AND Android Wear watch as trusted devices, so the phone isn't refusing to do this from a security standpoint as I just have to swipe the screen to get it to the main home screen, not input a pin or scan a fingerprint.

Any ideas? Would really help me! This is such a small thing, but it really is a killer deal for me in terms of whether I can commit to this phone full time.

Thanks in advance!

[LG G Flex 2] Ace42:
Well the process isn't always quick. But it's been explained to death. If you cannot get it automatically, then just call 611, then ask to be transferred the their tech department. Simple. Afterwards ask the new rep to push ANY OTAs they have available for your device & give them the ask model of the phone.

If the rep doesn't know what to do, just hang up, and call again.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 477427:
My phone is going through some weird battery issue. It's draining faster than it should. The biggest drain is the miscellaneous. It doesn't show what it is at all. As shown below, the phone should have lost just over 1000 mAh but in reality drained over 2700 mAh.

Any ideas what this could be or how to correct it?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nbhernandez:
Mine is doing the same, with Miscellaneous being at the top...not sure what is causing the issue. Are you rooted using the system-less method by chance?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 477427:
No. I did adb pull and push my build.prop to change it to userdebug tho to enable multi window mode. I'm thinking I'm going to reflash the image when I get home to see if there's that has anything to do with it. Although, reflashing may correct an altogether different issue and I won't find the cause.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nbhernandez:
Hmm, I also did a build.prop edit - I may revert back to the stock one and see if that helps.

Edit: After changing the build.prop back to user (from userdebug) I can confirm that Miscellaneous is no longer displayed in the battery stats. Must be a developer feature to measure expected vs actual battery drain is my guess.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 477427:
Hmm, but I wonder if the drain I'm experiencing will be any different. But as bugging as the multi window is I'm going to switch back until it gets fleshed out a bit more.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mechanicmuthu:
Actually it is a feature to make the total battery drain to match actual battery loss percentage. Has anyone noticed that after lollipop battery loss percentage was reset from base 100 to actual battery %. But the number never added up to the actual battery loss. Now after enabling userdebug it adds up. Wow. And fast discharging is a placebo effect.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dontbeweakvato:
Miscellaneous is from userdebug change in build.prop. its all normal stuff that you usually don't see cause it's normally hidden.

My edge plus has decided it wont allow me to text the majority of contacts i have saved, the error is invalid recipient, unable to add the recipient. The recipients number is invalid,

the numbers are all fine and even if i add my own number it tells me the same error, it is still receiving texts and will send to a couple out of the few hundred contacts i have, the message centre number is correct in the settings.

Any ideas, its a rooted deodexed rom with arter97 v8 kernel if that makes any difference?

For years android user. I have encountered with the same problem for the first time. I've newly upgraded to lollipop 5.1.1 from 5.0.1 note 4 910c . Using xposed and rooted. Installed talexop_Kernel_N910C_5.1.1_C0I4_v1.05 kernel.

I tried to do what a friend had suggested in the upper page. Found the file with es file explorer but couldn't find the line.

I know the problem is kernel or xposed or root.

I thing I used without any problem default message app for a day. But now the same problem as mentioned above.

Waiting à working solution.

You can find the file in this directory : "system/csc/feature.xml"

1) go to this directory with a root browser: "system/csc/"

2) open the "feature.xml" file with a text editor

3) scroll down to find the option called "CscFeature_Message_MaxRecipientLenghtAs" which equals to "10"

4) change the number "10" with number "90"

5) save the file and reboot your phone.

What kernel are you using?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scryan:
Did you do a full wipe/flash? You only really need to flash system... You'll need to reroot after, but don't need to mess with your apps and what not...

If you want to be a little more complete, flash boot, bootloader and radio too, none of which will mess with hour apps...

But if you flash boot, you will need to reflash your kernel and if your unencrypted you have to make sure you boot straight to recovery and flash kernel WITHOUT booting android.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] H4X0R46:
I never do a dirty flash just to avoid conflict, but I guess it couldn't hurt to try right? So not wiping userdata should work?

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scryan:
If its just the monthly updates, I wouldn't touch userdata.

If your on completely stock kernel, and encrypt do bootloader, boot, radio and system

If your unencrypted, flashing boot occasionally may help update ramdisk, but you run the risk that someday your tired or otherwise not paying attention and you boot android and it re-encrypts/wipes your device. Never done this so I am not sure if you would have the chance to stop it, or if it would just start formatting userdata out of nowhere...

Always best to take a backup right before. Then if there are issues you can restore backup things individually and install clean.

If I were on stock, most the time I would likely just backup, fastboot flash system.IMG and call it good unless issues popped up. Occasionally I would update bootloader/radios/boot... Maybe every other/every three... When people were talking about benefits of doing so here...
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bunklung:
I have always had zero issues applying newer stock images over older stock images on a Nexus device. I do this all the time when the OTA is not available and only the main updated Google Factory image is available.

I think the trick is to always wipe dalvik and cache after a flash of system and use TWRP that supports encryption. When you wipe the dalvik and cache the system acts like an OTA and performs an upgrade on all your apps. I *think* it effectively rebuilds the cache for all apps, but it never touches the app data or user data (sdcard/pictures/etc).

I also always flash the radios and bootloader *IF* they are updated from the last image. I used to flash the stock boot images too, but now that looks like from a going forward point we won't be able to do this and have root. I do look forward to system-less root :)
