Hey guys,

I know this topic has been asked by quite a few people. I've looked at them already and I know it differs by the make of the phone.

Specifically, I found this post on stackoverflow where the OP deletes a file called "charger_only_mode" which seems to do the trick for him. However, my phone just stays stuck on the Motorola boot logo when I plug it into a wall once this file is removed. Has anyone else had success doing the method he suggests?

The alternate way I assume would be to find where the battery charging animation is called and just replace that with some bash command to reboot the device with the correct permissions. Where is the location of the files that call the battery animation when charging from a dead battery?

Putting such a command into a regular init script would not be possible so I'm not sure what else to do, any suggestions would be great!

Solution

Solution was to type "fastboot oem off-mode-charge 0" with it plugged in
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Dishe:
I've seen a thread (over here) that describes an app someone wrote to make the AVRCP commands of a bluetooth A2DP stereo headset control GSPlayer instead of Windows Media Player.

This got me thinking... Is there a way we can create customized commands for the AVCRP controls to do whatever we want?

I could think of a few things I'd like them to do rather than just pause/play rr/ff in WMP!

For starters, I'd like them to signal TCPMP instead, followed by a togglescreen command. Or perhaps have shortcuts... the play/pause button could start TomTom, or toggle the phone in/out of silent... I think this could be a very useful tool!

How difficult is this to do?
[Samsung Gear S2] Sher The Love:
I just picked up the AT&T version today. If I read, delete, or dismiss a notification on my watch (in this case SMS) it does NOT dismiss the notification on my phone. I'm using a Note 5.

Is this normal, a bug, or am I not seeing a setting? Thanks.
[Samsung Gear S2] Sher The Love:
I edited out my long confusing post. Long story short, it was LightFlow conflicting with the Samsung SMS app. I switched to textra and I'm now able to respond to texts on the watch and clear the notification on the phone.

Hi there ...

I've had my Moto X Style for about 6 weeks now & I totally love it ..

BUT, in the last 2 weeks, with no patterns showing, the screen will go black all of a sudden multiple times a day.?

While using an app, the onscreen buttons are there, haptic works on the buttons, black screen, but I have no more app access.?

I can press & hold the power button & shutdown fine. I even cleared the cache' of all my apps using an app, made no difference.?

I'm running out of idea's.?

Falling short of doing a factory reset, does anyone know how to fix this.?

The phone worked perfect for

4 weeks

with ALL my apps installed back then,

so I don't know why it's going funny now.? Getting very annoying now, please help!?

[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jongerik:
I have seen this after the phone has been unlocked by trusted device connection with BT and carkit. After disconnect and then trying to unlock the phone with pattern only the on screen buttons are there and no pattern.

Sometimes I tried twisting the phone so it goes in to camera and then swiping to view already taken images. This should give the lock pattern but I also get the black screen with only the buttons. After some retries I get a crash from Nova launcher (message is something like Nova launcher did not respond) after clicking the ok button the unlock pattern is back and I can unlock the phone. Other times this doesn't work, not within the amount of retry's I did, and I have to reboot the phone

Note: When you use the phone right after disconnect, before it's locked again you can use apps, sometimes only active apps, sometimes even start new ones. But after a while it will lock. Probably because it lost connection with the trusted device. After that same problem, can't unlock it again

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gorship7:
Hey all,

Currently a BB Passport owner and yes I do love my phone, However, the maps are not getting updated, its starting to get laggy, and BB making a push into android before deciding to just stay with IOT security. well I hope the priv does well but the slider would get chewed up in my line of work.

Thus here I am asking the following.

The G4 runs 808 which from what I've read overtime supersedes the 810 in performance due to heat and throttling. I was originally sold on the Sony Z5 because I work marine construction and figured with a good case the water resistance would proof nice and I wouldnt have to get a rugged phone whereby I lose a lot of performance.

Z5 has 810 and im personally leery of that chip since I read so many reports on it.

My attention then turned to the G4

from what i've read the phone has a nice camera, strong antenna and a nice leather back. Cool but, for me I need to know how it handles the weather. I plan on putting it in a defender case while at work, but it rains here on vancouver island A LOT. like inches a day sometimes and I may need to bust out my phone to calc board footage or weight of a lumber package or take a call or something.

Is the phone loud?

Is the phone going to be ok in a otterbox in those conditions? (I get OB is good for dropping, how about rain, the oops a puddle drop etc)

if these all look good, I may bite the bullet and grab one. Im really not excited to lose my keyboard on my passport but, some of the glitches im getting are over the top irritating.

Thanks all,

Jordan.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DoKaTSuYa:
For the keyboard just install SwiftKey which beat any keyboard and you can set, personalized it to be more productive.

Put a thin case and it will be great.

It charges fast, the phone is loud.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shigi1231:
Here is the thing. IF you do not care not having an unlocked bootloader for the G4, by all means, get the G4 since it is a fantastic device for average users. But if ever you'd gotten yourself an H815 EUR variant of the G4, absolutely get it!
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gorship7:
Hrm, when I had a Droid before, mucking with it was kinda half the fun... that kinda stinks.. any word on bootloader ever being unlocked?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gorship7:
It looks like the Canadian one is the h812... if I'm googling correctly.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crzygrmn:
Lol. I thing your google is broken .

H812 is canadien

H815 is euro and some middle east countries

H81? There are a lot of different models. Mainly different bands
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gorship7:
I edited the post. Google fu fails me. It reads as though the unlock will come, just a matter of when. I'm sure I could entertain myself with stock but rooted I spose. Just kinda stinkeths
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hnl_dk:
Same thought.

My Nexus 4 is failing me (antenna)...

So I am thinking of buying a H815.

Do you have any trouble with it?

If you are using Android 6, is doze working?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hnl_dk:
camera

And does the it support the new Camera HAL v3?

Would be nice, to be able to take raw pictures
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] player911:
You can take Raw pictures on any G4 camera version, I thought. That isn't something new.

There aren't many custom roms because of the locked bootloaders. Fortunately the LG series really stopped me from being a flashaholic. Going back to stock AOSP leaves a lot to be desired.

We do have root and can flash custom stuff such as Xposed and Tweaks using apps such as Flashify. There just isn't a Custom Recovery for the locked models.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hnl_dk:
Depends on the sensor, if it supports RAW, but nice to know that the G4 is supporting it.

At least for the H815, it is possible to unlock the bootloader... but sounds very much like Samsung KNOX :(

http://developer.lge.com/resource/mobile/RetrieveBootloader.dev?categoryTypeCode=ANRS

Will be flashing CyanogenMod as soon as possible, if I am going to buy it.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gorship7:
I got one

I joined the family today. I'll wait for someone to open that bootloader. One I got the phone in my hands I was sold.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonathan-H:
Buy it anyway. Stock is better than any AOSP or Cyanogenmod any day of the century, and you will probably get used to LG stock anyway.

No idea why anyone would want to ruin a device by installing buggy software such as AOSP or CM and also destroy camera experience.

Can't see any reason for me to root or install rom's on this phone, it's perfect with MM.

On a side note, it's very easy to fix yourself too with a quick youtube guide.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gorship7:
is there Marshmellow for the G4 812's?

Hi, I'm from Brazil and the G4 that I have is H815P, don't know what this "p" means.. The software version is V10a...

Hello, I need help to choose the phone with the highest partition out of the box for installing apps. Regardless of rom size, I need the one with the highest partition for installing apps and somewhere in the 150 range, tho if its aroun 100 or less, ill be happy.

[OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BentMetal:
Ladies and Gentlemen, I apologize if this question has already been asked. I did a quick search on the forums as well as google, and couldn't find a satisfactory answer.

Is it better to use F2FS or EXT4 on the OnePlus X?

I have done a lot of flashing of devices over the past few years, but this is one aspect I've never touched.

Opinions? Will I notice an improvement if I switch to F2FS, or will it cause more headaches than its worth?
[OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] parasthakur37:
Uhm, why couldn't you just change and see?

Well for me I don't know if a feel the change but you will get better antutu (at least 3k points more) for sure.
[OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajaysoranam:
changed to f2fs, faced quite a lot of lags and stuttering not worth it... ext4 is buttery smooth specially after 2.1.3-X.

if you do plan on changing it however, do a backup of everything from your internal sd, it gets wiped along with the partition you are converting.
[OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stu5797:
Did you guys change your system to F2FS or just the data and cache?
[OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mawells787:
Only data & cache.
[OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trohn_javolta:
I'm asking myself the very same question. I don't have my opx yet but after reading through several threads I'll will first unlock bootloader, reflash oos and flash bluspark kernel but I won't Flash twrp recovery to Keep getting ota updates.

Regarding the question to Change to f2fs filesystem I'm still unsure.

The creator of boeffla kernel states this:

"This said, I will definitely NEVER implement:

•f2fs - it is known to cause various issues and compatibility problems"

I also found a post of the bluspark kernel creator:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=66047511&postcount=1390

"..There is no issues with f2fs and it's stable enough to be part of upstream stable and mainline linux kernel branches. And to be used by default by OEM like Samsung, Motorola and others.

Your problem came probably by derping the partition header/layout with all the reboots and such, since you changed fs and got the same.

It happens in other devices with other fs sometimes, nothing to do with f2fs not being stable..."

What do you guys think? Are there significant reallife benefits of f2fs in speed or other parts?
[OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mafioso16:
Are you sure you can keep OTA with a custom kernel, even when you won't flash TWRP? I do not think so, since OTAs are designed for completely unmodified systems.

I am pretty sure that Lord Boeffla means he won't implement F2FS since it's pretty unstable in general (not having any experience with it though)

and BluSpark kernel creator means that it's as stable as it gets (as "stock" with F2FS), so no disadvantages with his kernel when using it, but still not better than without it.
[OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CertifiedBlyndGuy:
The only thing I would use F2FS for is cache. It can cause data corruption and using it as a filesystem can corrupt your internal SD card. It isn't safe. Stick with EXT4
[OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trohn_javolta:
Yeah..sounds logical..I just saw that there's a way to keep OTA by not flashing a custom recovery, just booting one from pc here:

http://xdaforums.com/oneplus-x/general/discussion-how-to-root-oneplus-x-t3242830

Now I see he's basically restoring a previous backup of stock rom because of root. Then update and reroot without flashing a custom recovery.

ok..bluspark states one should reflash the rom before flashing kernel....

So if I want to get the latest update I'll just look here on xda for the original rom.

Flash that, flash kernel and reroot. Right? So there's also no reason not to flash twrp recovery. If an OTA update hits, I will see it on xda. Period.

Am I right?

I guess I'm making my life hard for no reason if I later will just stick to completely to a custom rom. But I want to give OxygenOS a chance. I think it's great to get a device with a stock rom that's not completely bloated and has exaggerated ui changes.
[OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mafioso16:
I used the same tutorial on how to "survive" OTAs too, but that indeed comes with restoring the backup and updating normally or through stock recovery. There is no need to keep full stock OOS after you have a full backup through booted TWRP. Besides, you first flash TWRP, then root, then kernel. I do not know if this is a must but it'd the usual way to go. In summary: if you have a nandroid backup go and have fun, but don't go too crazy . :)
[Sony Xperia C5 Ultra] jetstreamblue:
Just picked up my C5 Ultra, was happy until I tried to use its bluetooth with my car's built-in system (Mazda).

I have two problems:

- continuous stuttering to the point it's not usable, usually starts 1-2 minutes after starting to play music

- when trying to make a call, the phone doesn't route the call to the car, it shows it sending audio to bluetooth device, but no sound comes it also doesn't respond to the call end button in my car

Anybody else with bluetooth problems? Strange thing is it's only my car, it seems to work fine with my bluetooth headset. And there were no issues with my car with my old phones.
[Sony Xperia C5 Ultra] thejamesarnold:
same problem here

Thank God someone posted this. I also have a bluetooth headset and from time to time, there's some stuttering then the music stops playing. To fix this, I have to turn off my bluetooth in my phone and restart my bluetooth headset and pair the two again.

I thought this issue is only limited to audio devices. I bought an LG watch urbane and from time to time, the watch gets disconnected. When I try to pair it again, it won't connect even if I try several times. It will only connect if I restart my watch and try to pair it again.
[Sony Xperia C5 Ultra] jetstreamblue:
I also have a Moto 360, and there's a lot more random disconnects with this phone than any other phone I've used before. However, it does normally reconnect very quickly. But I did have to disable the vibrate on connect/disconnect because it got to be annoying.

I've given up on my car's bluetooth and using another bluetooth receiver and aux-in to my car's stereo. It seems that the older the bluetooth device, the more likely to have issues. Bluetooth 3.0/4.0 headsets seem to work fine.
[Sony Xperia C5 Ultra] thejamesarnold:
by the way, I have tried my watch urbane connecting to my huawei 4x and it doesn't get disconnected randomly. If it gets disconnected because I left my phone from another room, it will quickly get connected again when I'm near unlike the C5 Ultra that needs my watch to be restarted to be able to connect again.

[Sony Xperia C5 Ultra] jtp0307:
This phone honestly sucks in many ways. I love the hardware but the software and the cpu is the problem on this phone. Bluetooth sucks, slow processor and ...yea..slow loading on everything. I know it's the phone's bluetooth that disconnects my bluetooth earphones and car audio because it never happened on my Nexus 6. We'll just have to wait till Sony releases Marshmallow on our phones.

After the update I am also having problems with Bluetootn. In sleep mode Bluetootn off. Accordingly, all the time the connection is lost with the Sony SmartWatch 3 hours. Tired of this problem
[Sony Xperia C5 Ultra] jetstreamblue:
Yup, bluetooth shutting off is causing all sorts of problems with my Pebble smartwatches too. Basically made them completely useless because of the disconnects soon after the phone is idle.

I'm pretty sure it's tied to the Doze function in Marshmallow, but even when I disable Doze for the Pebble watch app and bluetooth share app, I still have issues. I even got an app called "Disable Doze" to completely turn off Doze functionality. It seems to help, but I still have occasional drops.

Bluetooth seriously sucks on this phone...
[Sony Xperia C5 Ultra] stenlybg:
Found a solution

I found out what causing that bluetooth disconnects on my Xperia C5 Ultra Dual. It's when wifi and bluetooth are turned on at the same time. I turned off wifi and bluetooth connection is now stable.

My pebble also was disconnecting and it was annoying with all the vibration and it wasn't event reconnecting. But after I turned off the wifi bug is gone. I read that this is a common bug with Xperia :( Sad...
[Sony Xperia C5 Ultra] jetstreamblue:
I'll have to give that a try, I stopped using my C5 because I couldn't stand the bluetooth issues anymore. I'm using, of all things, my 4 year old Nexus 4 now (which I should say works perfectly...)
[Sony Xperia C5 Ultra] edward prince:
bluetooth of sonyc5ultra is worst working in connectivity . useless , disconnecting from blue tooth device by its own. Getting irritating by bluetooth issue.

Same Problem here also

[P8lite General] Rifat Nurr:
Hello buddies,

Today I wanna share a little thing to you.. I always want to change the boot animation of my phone. when I bought Huawei P8 lite I had tried to do so. But I failed because like other previous version of Android (ICS,JB,KK) I didn't find the /media folder in root/system.. That's way flashble zip files of boot animation don't work if you flash them via custom recovery :(

I searched in google for a solution. I didn't find nothing new there. I also tried some apps like Bootanimation.apk. But the result was same. :crying: :crying:

Finally I solved this problem with my own effort and successfully changed the boot animation.. :cool: :cool:

To change boot animation first of all you must root your device.. if you have a rooted device then download Root Explorer/ Es File Explorer or Something like these.

1. Launch the application which you installed and go to /root folder of your device.

2. Find /cust folder and Click on it.

3. Here you will see some folders. Just click on preinstalled folder.

4. Then go to /public/media folder and you will get a zip named bootanimation.zip. Just delete it or rename it like bootanimation.zip.bak.

5. Now just put your boot animation file in that folder and Reboot your device.

THAT'S ALL :D :D

CAUTIONS:

1. Download the boot animation file according to your disply resolution [P8 Lite (ALE-L21) Resolution is 720x1280 ]. Boot animation of other resolution won't work at all.

2. If you download a flashable zip file then extract it and use the bootanimation.zip file which you get inside it.
