[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mlakov:
Hey guys, so my girlfriend's S4 mini won't turn on and its stuck on the Samsung booting logo. I did a hard reset, but with no luck, wiping the cache didn't help either. I flashed a stock rom with but that also didn't work. When i enter recovery mode this is what I get:
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sayrian:
I have bad news for you. If none of those methods that you tried worked, it probably means you have a fried storage which is probably the cause of the Recovery not being able to mount the partitions as it cannot find any.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mlakov:
So i should replace the motherboard ?:(
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sayrian:
That could be one solution, however, What problem are you encountering while flashing a stock OS?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mlakov:
I flash stock os without encountering problems, but the phone still doesnt turn on
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sayrian:
Have you tried to flash a custom recovery to see if that does the trick?

I flash a custom recovery but when i go in recovery mode it takes me to the stock recovery :eek:
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] branj:
Does the nexus 6p have OTG support? I have tried searching and didn't come up with anything definitive. Some say it works some say it doesn't. I currently have this OTG: Monster USBOM-0064-L 64GB USB 3.0 High Speed Mobile https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00S70GGKI/ref=cm_sw_r_other_awd_a92zwbV8J56A7

I can't get it to work. I am on Beanstown's Pure Nexus rom. Is it because of the pure nexus rom? Or is it my hardware?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] murphyjasonc:
I'm on Pure Nexus and OTG works fine for me. I'm not sure what your problem is but I don't think its the ROM.

What OTG device are you using? What adapter do you use?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] murphyjasonc:
I'm using a Kingston USBc 64gb jump drive.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tech_head:
OTG works but you need a USBc OTG adapter.

Using a USBc to MicroUSB adapter with a MicroUSB OTG cable does not seem to work.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yetanotherusername:
I don't have write access as a user, only READ ONLY :(

I tried several known good USB drives. I tried several file managers. The system can write and reformat the USB drives. The Nexus 6P is not rooted. Is this normal? Any suggestions to get it to work? My head hurts from banging it against a wall.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plazma247:
Sorry to post dig, but ive got a working adapter but im seeing an issue:

- Sub 5mb per second transfer speeds

This is with es file explorer, but on other android devices with the same usb2 stick i cam easily get 14mb per second.

What speeds do you guys get?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FractalSphere:
I was able to get OTG working when I got this adapter ( https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B017MP658G ). Not every device works on it, however. Several USB thumb drives have worked with no issues, one inexplicably does not. Also, and more disappointing, is that my USB to SATA adapter doesn't seem to be recognized. I have a 120gb SSD that I used this method with my LG G3 and it worked fine.

Maybe it's the adapter? Changing setting from "supply power" to "transfer files" does nothing to change it. It sees there's a USB attached, but doesn't read the format.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thor-ua:
I've tried several USB to type C adapters with stock Nexus 6p. All of adapters had USB3.0 support, it's important. They all worked fine with USB2.0 flash drives and they all didn't with USB3.0 flash drive. I've ordered some adapters USB2.0 to type C to test.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thor-ua:
UPD: I've tested six USB to USB type C adapters with both USB3.0 and USB2.0 support - they all not working with USB3.0 flash drives and work wine with USB2.0 flash drive. Also: the phone can recognize the drive but can't mount it.

I'm sure this is the phone issue - I've seen successful mount of my test flas drive with one of adapters on some Xiaomi phone.

Anyone got a favorite yet? My favorite ebay seller has gone defunct. Many seem to only sell the front and dont have proper cutout holes as well.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] unFKNreal:
i got mine from: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0152H8868?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00

really good, no complaints.

Also bought the following for a back screen protector but not tempered and rubbish imo:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B017YPCAEM?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] paullu:

[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] kcteun:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0168L5MBQ?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00

Just a hair smaller than the screen. Front and back glass, cutouts are spot on. I use a bumper, and it works perfectly with these. I don't expect them to last forever, and the fingerprint resistance is nonexistant.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] Minakami:
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/272036276148?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&var=570849538218&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

I got this one from ebay, Nillkin is pretty decent for tempered glass, but it did take a month to ship to Canada.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] bpm2000:
I ended up getting one of those Pthink ones and it is definitely good. I wish they would make a back piece too, still searching for the right one.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] AndroidAppleWindows:
I got a Stilgut from Amazon and I like it. Covers front and back. Comes with two year warranty.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] Mobfigurz:
Do not buy either of these two:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0158SZEW2?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00 CaseBase

This one is 2 or 3mm smaller than the screen on every side, pathetic really.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0176NDGKE?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00 Wunderglass

This one has both front and back, but not an exact fit. Two down sides of this one is the corners and not curved enough and it is short by 2mm top to bottom and right to left.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] bpm2000:
I've received and put on the back glass from Aomax, and it is a step below in quality of the pthink which I have on the front. I have another set from Rhidon here but won't be testing that until one of these cracks or breaks on me.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] Metromuppet:
Orzly make a very good high quality one with oilophobic coating too!
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] Mobfigurz:
I just fitted the PThink glass front and have to say it is by far the best one I have seen. The size is almost perfect, pretty close to an exact fit, just half a millimetre short on one side which is hardly a big deal.

I purchased three different brands from China, when they arrive I will compare them and let you guys know.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] roninr1c:
I got this one: roxfit

Love it! :good:
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] bpm2000:
Update: my aomax back piece is already scratched to hell and back and has developed some chips. The Pthink front glass is still mostly perfect with a few scratches. Still has a good oleophobic coating which I am surprised about.

I opened the Rhidon package today intending to replace the back piece - man is the glass on this one thin! The back piece I'm not even sure if it is glass or plastic it feels so flimsy. It does have two separate hole cutouts for the lens/flash instead of the single teardrop cutout of the aomax though which I like a lot better.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] leblan:
Followed your recommendation and bought the Orzly. Fit was perfect; no bubbles and definitely a nicer glide under the finger.

What tempered glass for back u recommend? The "Mocolo" is so resistant , no-foot, not scratch but i so slippery according to what i read . idk if someone tested the Nillkin..

Thanks
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] Infraaa:
What about the space of the back glass to the device? Im travelling to usa and i need to buy a back glass for this device, idk which to buy because i am reading bull**** of each item..

U recommend the Rhidon?

Thank you.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] KbaB.BroS:
Check out Nillkin. It doesn't cover the whole screen, but it doesn't leave a huge gap either.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] Infraaa:
Yeah seems good i hope that Nillkin dont take out the mode "mirror" of the chrome
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] KbaB.BroS:
No it shouldn't. It's transparency is close to 100%, it even handles fingerprints better. So I guess you wouldn't need to wipe the smudges off that often anymore.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] Infraaa:
Thank you man!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] ifilgud:
Hi!

I bought the Orzly protector and after trying to remove some dust of a corner, it got bent and no longer glued, but after contacting them, they sent me a new one without cost and got it perfectly attached :)

The protector almost fits the whole front, if you set it well centered, it is almost not noticeable the gaps at the sides and even better if you use a case (top and bottom are perfectly adjusted).
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] Daniel_GB:
just installed a Nillkin Amazing H tempered glass screen protector on my Z5p and it is really good...

It has covered the whole screen perfectly and it is notably less fingerprint magnet compared to the stock one...
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] KbaB.BroS:
I have a Nillkin with blue light filter right now. The screen protector becomes blue under sunlight (looks pretty good actually), however, that filter works wonders during the night. It's a hundred times easier to look at the screen and it doesn't affect my sleeping cycle like without one. The colors also remain unchanged, nothing washed out.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] Infraaa:

The rhidon removes/reduces the glass effect on z5p chrome? Or it does not affect anything?

[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] AndroidAppleWindows:
Update after dropping it a few times the back is full of cracks. The front has a crack too. Also the back distorts the flash when taking photos and gives the photos white washout in one corner.

Does anyone else with glass protector on back gets issues with taking photos with flash?
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] bpm2000:
Sorry for late reply, don't XDA much these days.

The fit is exactly the same as the aomax and others, they all leave a tiny gap around the edge but this is no problem. It covers the actual back panel well. I still haven't put it on yet so cannot speak on its longevity.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] Mobfigurz:
Avoid the Nillkin Tempered glass, much like most of the Chinese rubbish and they used to be good. It is a minimum of 3mm smaller than the screen along all edges. So if you manage to get it lined up dead center you will find 3mm of your screen is exposed along each side and if you line it up from top to bottom you will have a large 6mm section of exposed screen real estate. Absolute rubbish.

Thus far, the P-Think from Amazon is the closest fit.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] Guto ViP:
I bought this here thinking it would be different, but the same film that is on my device. It's hard to find one that does not circulate the flash ... This I bought is different from the ad image in Aliexpress ...

[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] Infraaa:
Its blue or i am crazy? what is that
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] KbaB.BroS:
It's the blue light filter which is only visible in direct sunlight, or UV-rays.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] Mobfigurz:
Such a shame that the non-filtered Nillkin does not fit as good as that one. So far, every front and rear panel I have purchased (about 6 or 7) have all had an imperfect fit to the screen. I might try the filtered Nillkin just for coverage.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] KbaB.BroS:
Colors will look easier on the eyes at the cost of some color loss, but it's almost unnoticeable. The problem arises under direct sunlight when the screen is weak and the blue from the filter looks overpowering.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] Mobfigurz:
Does that issue remain even with Adaptive Brightness set?
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] KbaB.BroS:
Yes, that blue tint from the filter gets overpowering
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] KbaB.BroS:
My new favorite is Copter Exoglass. It has a great fitting ratio, at least as good as Nillkin PE+. Their warranty policy is also world class, received a new one just because I mounted it wrong. If you can get a hold of one, I suggest you buy it.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] Mobfigurz:
I am on the search now, I think I will try another Nillkin and the Exoglass. Good shout.

You'll need to wipe your /cache partition. But, I don't think you'll be able to get into recovery before it automatically tries to install the update at boot.
