[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 123popeye123:
Weird. I was at 5.0 and did system update. Went through and was at 5.0.1. The next AM said system update available and ran software update and complete and rebooted and installed 5.1.1. Recharged battery at 71% and later was only at 87 % after fast charging after an hour and half. Battery draining rapidly. I went to "remove partition/cache" and a got a Warning Screen-stating a custom OS can cause critical problems in phone & applications...up & down.

First time I saw that-Any ideas on why this came up? I am concerned and worried about this popping up!

I panicked and hit up button, by accident, looks like started to download and tried to stop nothing & did a battery pull... so should I be even more worried?

See pic that is what came up and stupid me just hit volume up!

Advice-Info-Solution would be appreciated, thanks!

This really ticks me off; ONM should be perfect for this and let WM users utilize a WM device in conjunction with a non-Tablet device for handwriting notes.

A messy workaround is to write it on a paper and take a picture of it with ONM.

[LG G Flex 2] lyphe:
Unsure of the revision of this update. I am running 5.1.1 ZV8 rooted, so I cannot take the update without flashing to stock. However, I received this update last night, 11/25.

Link to file: OTA update.zip

You cannot apply this update with root. You must be running a stock image.

To install this file simply copy to the root directory of your SD card, then reboot into the bootloader.

If you have adb installed, run "adb reboot bootloader"

If you do not, power the device off, and hold Volume Down and Power buttons together to turn the device on. After about 5 seconds, you will see the recovery mode screen.

Now, highlight "apply update from sdcard"

Use your power button to select that option.

Select the "update.zip" from the list

Enjoy!

Brief description:

Tried using OS X (SIP disabled with a more current version of adb that works with El Capitan) but no matter what I did it would stop patching after about the 5th or 6th patch, once it went further but still hung.

So I used my VM of Ubuntu 14 ... This was quite a bit slower to run to completion (this may be due to my VM being configured with very few resources) it was 2.5 hours before it got to the largest patch section so I have to think it took 5 or 6 hours to complete.

I did end up with a loss of ability to remount /system as rw after installing the "system tools" via adbFire but this was fixed after rebooting the FireTV.
[Fire TV General] ImCoKeMaN:
Awesome to see the feedback thanks guys!

That's interesting that it was failing in your OS part way through the serial transfer, but a VM actually worked for you on the same hardware. This is something that may be an ugly workaround for [MENTION=2278952]playingmax[/MENTION] too.

Rooted with Ubuntu 14.04 Live USB

Fire TV 2 Rooted

Ubuntu Desktop 14.04.3 on a Live USB

1) I used the instructions on YouTube to install Ubuntu Desktop 14.04.3 to a USB (search YouTube for "How to install Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on a USB drive"). About 2:20 into the video, you get to set the storage size of the Live OS. Although the video uses 2gb, I would recommend 3gb so you won't run into space constraints while following the steps below.

2) I then booted into Ubuntu (you can figure out how to boot from a USB key by googling either how to change boot order or how to enter the BIOS for your computer),

3) In the FireTV 2's settings, I went to Developer Options and turned ON all three options: ADB Debugging, USB Debugging, Apps from Unknown Sources

4) I connected my laptop to the FireTV with a USB Male-to-Male cable and on the laptop, started Terminal (command-line interface)

5) I entered one at a time, the commands from gitlab.com/zeroepoch/aftv2-tools/snippets/11117

6) After running the command "adb reboot ; sudo ./handshake.py", the Terminal just showed "Waiting for preloader" while the FireTV rebooted all the way to the Amazon start screen, so I knew the handshake script had not been successful.

7) I just unplugged the FireTV and plugged it back in (devices are still connected via USB). This time, within a few seconds, Terminal showed "handshake complete!"

8) I then continued with the next command from the script: "sudo ./patch_mmc.sh 0x00000000058e0000 system.root.img system.diff". This does the actual patching and took 2hrs.

9) Finally I skipped the next 3 lines "echo", "echo" and "read" lines and entered the last 3 commands in order to disable updates.

10) I then unplugged the USB, unplugged and replugged the FireTV, and that's it!

Thanks to zeroepoch for getting the ball rolling on opening up this device, and for sharing his work openly with the rest of us!

Thompson,

How did you get stick mount to work? What version are you running? And what file system?
[Fire TV General] z_thompsonpa:
I installed version 3.33 from the Play Store on my android phone and then used AGK Fire application on my android phone to transfer it over to AFTV2. I guess it's worth noting that if you have USB Debugging enabled, then no usb stick can be mounted until it is disabled. Also, I'm pretty sure the AFTV2 natively handles mounting usb thumb-drives. I have a FAT32 formatted usb flash drive. I haven't confirmed any of StickMount's functionality other than loading up the application's UI and navigating around. Also, it gives me a toast pop-up message when a usb drive is mounted. You could try these steps, or if you have trouble... Is there anything in StickMount you'd like for me to test?

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codyrt:
So yesterday my accelerometer completely stopped working. I even factory reset the phone to try and fix it. The thing that fixed it was dropping my phone on the carpet from a small height. Keep in mind that I went through a whole 8 hour work day constantly moving around, setting my phone on the desk, and setting it up in my car mount. None of that was enough to cause enough shock to make it work.

Also, my volume rocker bent in the middle from it resting against the arm of my office chair.

I made a video of the issues:

https://youtu.be/TIF0QZkFIuQ

Skip to 1:05 for the volume rocker and 2:15 for the auto rotate issue.

Does anyone have any ideas about the accelerometer? I did contact Google but it was after I troubleshooted and got it working so they couldn't issue a replacement. They also had no clue why it happened.

Below is the thread on the Nexus support site, it seems several other people have the same issue even after a replacement:

It seems a 'stuck' orientation sensor is not that uncommon. There are a number of similar threads on the Moto X, where a drop (or just a good whack) applied to the phone has unstuck it.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tdawg2k7:
I also have the same issue. I have dropped the phone twice. Once on carpet from about 2 feet up and another on a rug from the same distance. I use the official Nexus 6p case. From what I can tell the accelerometer stopped working after the 2nd drop which was last night.

---------- Post added at 06:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:44 PM ----------

So I downloaded the app Accelerometer Monitor and it showed that my accelerometer was just stuck, it wasn't detecting any kind of movement at all. I flicked the top right side of my phone with my finger and it now works. Ridiculous.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codyrt:
I just wanted to report back that after the drop onto the couch, the accelerometer has not had any more issues. My phone even slipped out my pocket at my desk at work, hit the floor, and still no issues, not even a scratch. I'm hoping ti was just a fluke and won't happen again.
