[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 18t:
Someone in another forum was unfortunate enough to have to go through 3 phones. The ones he had issues with had a slanting power button where pressing the bottom of it did nothing. They said the phone that worked had a correctly functioning power button. I was just curious if any of you have the slant?
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waterninja21:
Not me but some girls like a slanted power button lol
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xev11:
Yep mine is slanted. I think it was normal when i got it but after a week the bottom half is stuck. And pressing there does nothing
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Javiggan69:
You can't press the bottom of the button, only the top clicks.
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] calash:
Mine is as well. I have yet to have any sticking.
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Javiggan69:
Mine doesn't stick also.
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 18t:
I tried out 4 demo units at a corporate store. 3 out of the 4 had the slant. I brought it up and they swapped me a new one that is normal. We'll see if it slants after a while.
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigv5150:
I just noticed my power button I ly works if I press top or middle bottom is dead. This has never been an issue. Only reason I notice it now is because of this thread.
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elvee68:
Mine works regardless where i press it.
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g0thm0g:
I have the slant and can only press the top of the button. I thought it was just something wrong with my case, but removed it to check after seeing this thread.
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xev11:
Terrible quality control
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raduque:
I think it's supposed to be more like a rocker. If you press the bottom "dead" spot hard enough, it will work. Mine has been like this since day one.

I see it as a complete and utter non-issue, because my finger can't press just the very bottom part anyway - I have to use my fingernail to press it and I have to work my way down the power button to find the exact spot where it stops working.
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sweendiggler:
Mine is exactly the same, I just noticed it last night, then went searching and stumbled upon this thread. I'm contemplating swapping it because I don't want it to fail down the road, but I also don't want to be paranoid (which I tend to be about my cars, electronics, etc.)

Has anyone had the button completely fail?
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dino-zor:
I believe it is kinda supposed to be this way, I have read that it is hinged on the bottom. So, there should be no risk of it failing because of it, and theoretically should last longer than normal power buttons, but yeah, if feels a little crappy.
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sweendiggler:
Thanks for the feedback. I actually went into the Verizon store on my lunch break since it's over by Subway, and I played with two of the other Droid Turbo 2's that they had on the floor. They felt exactly the same as mine (bottom 1/3 of the button doesn't click) and the sales guy I talked to agreed.
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayman94fly:
Dang issues

I'm having this issue as well. can't press bottom power button slightly, hopefully it's not that big of an inconvenience for people because this is a great phone so far I love it, besides the bl unlock and root methods not being available for months and the lack of software support...or just plain slow support... If any ha-ha well good luck guys I hope it works out send those defective units in!!
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JasonJoel:
Yeah, the power button kind of sucks. Hard to press. But oh well, I'm certainly not sending in my phone just for that.

Photos of Microswitch

Just to add one more data point for any future owners who are worried about this, here are 2 captures from teardown videos that prove out the location of the microswitch - way up at the top, which explains the crappy (yet normal) button feel.

This is a little more straight on, of the microswitch itself:

This is a top-down view indicating the location of the microswitch in relation the overall shape of the button:

[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itanas:
I have same issue, how does one fix it?
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sweendiggler:
Based on the photos posed above, it looks like it was just a design oversight and likely can't be "fixed" in the sense we would like it to be. The ones that have perfect power buttons probably have a stronger spring mechanism, and seem to be in the minority.

The good news is that it doesn't look like it will be indicicative of future failure based on the design, unlike when older iPhones would do this and then fail completely as the rubber plunger broke free.
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kingcave:
Both my power button and volume buttons have completely failed.
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] capt14k:
Power Button Failed

My power button failed today completely. Volume keys worked. Couldn't shut off phone. Couldn't do screen capture. I think it is a software issue. I ended up rebooting the phone through ADB and everything is working again.

I saw others had problems connecting phone to ADB. I did at first too. The fix for this I found was. Make sure you have latest Motorola Device Manager and update Android SDK. When first connecting phone to computer you will get pop up with 5 choices initially, choose software install this will install Verizon Update Manager (had to use this to update to Marshmallow because OTA failed and then said there was no update). Then disconnect phone and reconnect. When connecting this time choose MTP from list. If you don't ADB won't see phone. Once everything is installed correctly open command prompt as Administrator (Windows 7 type cmd in run box then right click cmd program choose Run as Administrator) then type ADB devices and it will connect and show device. Then type ADB reboot and phone will reboot. After reboot power button seems to be working fine.

I found it really annoying when power button wasn't working. Especially since I couldn't wake screen during phone calls. So I installed Volume to Power App that allows volume buttons to act as power button to wake screen just in case it happens again and I am not near a computer. Hope info helps.
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlackDeathFiend:
Mine isn't slanting, but the P.O.S. doesn't work at all unless I pinch right behind the power button (one finger on the screen, and another on the back of the phone) and then press the button. Also, the bezel is coming unclipped all the way around the screen. I'm surprised it hasn't fallen completely off yet. And this is my second one as well....I don't care anymore though because I just bought the Galaxy S8. And I will NEVER buy another Motorola device for the rest of my life. Every one of their phones that I have owned (4 or 5 different devices) was a piece of junk.

[Verizon LG G4] DAXX:
Hey guys! I was wondering if anyone knows if it's possible to change the power menu on the LG G4 stock rom to a more advanced power menu? The menu that I'm talking about is the one you get when you press and hold the power button. Iv'e tried a few through xposed, but it doesn't seem to work with LG phones, so I was wondering if there is a specific method for something like that to work?
[Verizon LG G4] Akomack:
G4 Tweaksbox has this and a TON more features

EDIT: One of the screenshots shows the advanced power menu.

BTW, you'd have better luck asking stuff like this in the generic LG G4 threads, Verizon threads aren't really used much because of the locked bootloader.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ziad311:
After 6 months of use i loved the S3 Neo's camera but it lacks the Manual Focus, so it is impossible to take manual macros when we need that. So is there any chance to bring manual focus on this device? (imx175 and SLSI_S5K4H5YB)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] muttleytm:
I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 Freedompop phone and I have Android 4.4.2 Kitkat. I very much want to get a newer ROM to not have all the problems associated with the third party apps cannot write to external SC card feature they added.

I have used CM on another Freedompop phone and it was OK except when I had to update the PRL, etc. I had to install a stock ROM and then go back to CM. I did it successfully a few times, but, seeing as how I don't do it often it is had to remember the steps. It caused more stress than I cared for as when I had to to the PRL updates did not necessarily coincide with when I had time to re-learn how to flash a new ROM. The fact that if I could potentially brick the phone didn't help either.

I've heard that most carriers will be officially rolling out Lollipop 5.1 for S3s, but, so far I haven't heard anything from Freedompop and the Kitkat SD card issue is causing too many problems.

What are my options at this point.

As I understand it thee is a Lollipop ROM and CM is also an option.

Is there a way to set up CM in some sort of dual boot mode, so that when I have to update the PRL, etc. I can just boot into a stock ROM, update the PRL and then reboot into my regular ROM?

Are there any complete instructions on how to do this somewhere?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madbat99:
No dual boot options. No, the s3 will never get official 5.1. 4.4.2 is the newest it will ever get. I have not had to update prl or profile for any reason.

There are cm based lollipop roms, also a marshmallow rom or 2 (still early).

If you want to stay stock rooted , just get the app SDFix from the play store to fix the sd card write problem.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] muttleytm:
I have Next SDFix (the highest rated one) installed and I have a couple 3rd party apps that can't write to the SD card. I tried a couple others with no success as well.

I have to apps that do not work. One is Open Camera. I can't save pictures to the SD card (or anywhere else). The other is SimpleMind. It can't access the public folder and because of this can't save to Dropbox. I've been told the SD card write issue is the cause of this by the developer.

If the SDfix app indeed works and you have any idea what is causing the problem please let me know.

I had looked into this a few months ago and I understood the Android OS's > 4.4.2 had been fixed to correct this, but, that none of them were available for the Samsung Galaxy S3. It was also my understanding that the 5.1 that was going to be made available was an unofficial release of some sort.

Am I misinformed on all counts?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madbat99:
Sd card writes fine in lollipop (5.1.1). But after I used SDFix I never had problems on KitKat. So I'm not sure why you're having problems. There are many 5.1.1 custom roms for the sprint s3. I am actually running a 6.0.1 marshmallow rom right now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] muttleytm:
Any of the s3 custom ROMs for S3 allow updating PRL and Profile so I can use with FreedomPop, or, for that matter does CM still not allow doing this?

Anyone?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madbat99:
Only touchwiz roms have that. But you don't really need to update prl or profile often. You flash a freedompop apn fix with the ROM and gapps.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shdware:
I recommend AICP 5.1.1, then flashing the FreedomPop APN fix, which will allow LTE access.

There are also some manual changes you can do as well to grant access to 1x and better 3G support:

Android -> Settings -> Mobile Network Settings -> Access Point Names

APN: n.f6.ispsn

MMSC: http://mms.sprintpcs.com

MMS proxy: 68.28.31.7

MMS port: 80

MCC: 310

MNC: 120

APN type: default,mms,supl,hipri

APN Protocol & APN Roaming Protocol: IPv4/ IPV6

Bearer: Unspecified.

APN type, Bearer, and APN is important.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] muttleytm:
Thanks for the inforomation on AICP. Does it allow updtating the PRL and profile?

In preparing to replace the ROM I installed MultiSystem. It allows installation of images of multiple ROMs on the SD card so you can switch back and forth between them. I have my stock OS image created and have mounted to it and it is working OK. MultiSystem also has a number of other options that allow you to do a number of other things and launch apps from within it. One of them is to run Fireflash to flash to flash a ROM. It's a pretty new app and certainly new to me.

Would I simply navigate the the AICP zip file and then the APN zip files and click on them?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shdware:
Sorry for the delay. No current custom ROMs allow update to the PRL. The APN fix takes care of that. I have AICP 6.0 on my Galaxy S3. I also have updated the existing APN fix. This one is superior as it has the settings I listed above built-in and not all roms support modifying the APN.

Here's the link to my fix. Just flash it with your favorite recovery (TWRP is best).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] muttleytm:
Thanks. I should have some uninterrupted free time this afternoon or tomorrow, but, I have a couple questions.

First, you mentioned you are using AICP 6. I'm looking at the downloads page and just see a list of nightlies with names like shamu, falcon, etc. I downloaded aicp_d2spr_lp-10.0-RELEASE-20150707.zip earlier, but, I think is version 5. I also see version 8 is listed as the latest stable version. Am I missing where the stable versions are? Where is the latest stable build for my galaxy s3 (sprint)?

After I get the latest stable zip I can flash it using TWRP. However, after I have the AICP installed I will have to reinstall TWRP so I can do the FP fix and also install Google Apps. Unless AICP comes with TWRP installed I will have to re-install it before I can proceed. I figure I won't be able to use the FP service until I get the FP fix installed. I just want to make sure that I can connect to google Play via wifi to install TWRP at this point. Will I?

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] muttleytm:
I forged ahead and just used TWRP to install the ROM. As it turns out after I flashed the ROM zip I was still in TWRP and was asked it I wanted to install another. That was too easy.

I did have a problem getting stuck in a boot loop after I flashed the ROM, the FP fix and gapps.

I did a little looking around and saw a few things that might cause the problem. One of them was possibly and incompatible version of gapps and also there was mention of be sure to clear the cache. I tried reflashing the ROM and the FP Fix but not the gapps a couple times and still had the boot loop issue. I then tried the option on TWRP that include the phrase factory reset. It didn't seem appropriate since that isn't what I'm doing, but, I tried it and it worked.

I don't know if gapps was the problem or not. I'm now installing them with an app called gapps downloader. I installed it through my browser and it said it was installed but I never could locate it. I then downloaded the apk and installed it that way. Its downloading packages now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hilla_killa:
Opengapps.Org always flawless for me
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] muttleytm:
I tried to install gapps for android 5.1, but, I got a message saying it was incompatible with my OS.

What Android version is AICP 11? or is there any other way to get google play services working again?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hilla_killa:
Its 6.0 mm! You should use aicp thread
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shdware:
Make sure you're using 6.0 gapps. I prefer OpenGapps, but you can use many of them.

On dirty flashes, gapps is persistent with AICP. I found that most of the time the APN fix was as well, but not always.

---------- Post added at 09:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:04 PM ----------

The nightlies are all pretty stable now. You will only need to install TWRP once.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shdware:
I normally download the files to the uSD card to keep everything simple. You may also use TWRP to backup to this card.

1. Format using TWRP

2. Flash ROM

3. Flash Gapps

4. Flash APN fix (if applicable)

All should be well. If you're having issues, be sure to verify md5 as that had been an issue for me in the past.

I see you're using PhilZ Touch as recovery. Not recommended. Install TWRP.

I just flashed aicp_d2spr_mm-11.0-NIGHTLY-20160405 and for the life of me I can't find the Carrier Settings to enter this. I'm trying to fix a problem I'm seeing where I can call while on wi-fi but can't on LTE: "No Data Connection" (which is funny because I can browse the web on LTE just fine.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shdware:
Try this link for an APN fix. I modified an existing one which incorporates the above. Flash this and it should fix your issue (assuming you're in the USA. If you're overseas, I can't help you).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] s'pht:
ah OK, I flashed that too - so nothing else to do then? I'm in the US using FreedomPop.

You should be able to access 1x, 3G, and LTE. Is that the case? If so, you're done.

microphone problems

Tried the latest AICP nightly to try to fix some problems I had been having with cm. For the most part it seems to be working better, however one problem has carried over, by default the phone uses the top microphone for calls, which means that people on the other end can barely hear my voice.

I tried a solution from the cm forums, changing a line in /system/build.prop ("persist.audio.handset.mic=digital" to "persist.audio.handset.mic=analog"). Now the phone uses the correct mic for calls but does not use the top mic for echo cancellation, so people on the call hear a significant echo of their voice.

Does anyone else have this issue? Any tips on where to start looking if I were to try to solve this myself?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GenesisXVII:
I recently bought an Oppo Joy 3 and so far I haven't encountered any problems except the emulated storage which has been eating up most of my internal memory. Would it be possible for me to change it's directory to my external, not to the emulated memory???

Note : I have already rooted my device and I haven't done anything to it yet.
[HTC One A9] Ivanovic:
DISCLAIMER

I take no responsibility for whatever happens to your phone. Do this at your own risk.

Introduction

So I got an A9 off ebay listed as 32GB/3GB saying in the description that it has demo mode enabled and it is being sold for parts. What the heck, I had to give it a try. It turned out to be the 16GB model sold in the EU and not in the US. Got a partial refund though. Anyway cut to the chase. Fortunately HTC Demo phones have radio enabled.

We used to think that demo mode is being triggered by the CID HTC__002 and by changing it demo would be gone. Well that's not the case. There is a hidden partition or visible, I haven't looked about it, which installs the demo application. Reflashing same version RUU won't do much since some partitions are being bypassed. Only firmware targeted for branded phones with the same MID will do the job.

Requirements

Root (check http://xdaforums.com/one-a9/development/root-htc-a9-t3244141)

S-OFF (checkhttp://theroot.ninja)

Steps

Step 1

Gain root

Step 2

Get S-OFF

Step 3

Download an RUU zip different than the version your phone has installed. For example if your phone run on 1.10.401.7 then download 1.10.206.7 ruu zip.

Step 4

Change your CID to match one .of the CIDs listed for the ROM you have downloaded. E.g change HTC__001 to O2___001

Step 5

Rename the ruu zip to 2PQ9IMG.zip and place it in your SDCard.

Step 6

Reboot into download mode, it will ask you to start the update process. Press volume up to accept and when its done press power button to shut down the phone. When you reboot your phone you will have a fully working phone.

Optional

If you dont want to stuck with a branded phone you can always flash the original RUU, demo mode will be gone since the partition has been erased before.
[HTC One A9] BazmanFoo:
Don't suppose it can be done without S-OFF? I know its only $25 (and I've paid it for many phones in the past) but since I won't be keeping this phone, I don't want to pay anything for it.

I now have unlocked bootloader and root, any ideas if I can remove whatever script is reinstalling demo mode and factory reset without changing CID?
[HTC One A9] Ivanovic:
Look for demoflo.apk and remove it from the system folder. You should be ok. But forget about OTA unless a custom rom appears.

You could also try the pm disable command and disable the demoflo package

Demo is being triggered by something inside a certain partition. Didn't have time to look for it but flashing an RUU with different partitions did the trick. Flashing same version partition didn't not since lots of them were identical therefore they were skipped.

Στάλθηκε από το HTC One A9 μου χρησιμοποιώντας Tapatalk
[HTC One A9] LeeDroid:
Technically incorrect squire, it is triggered by HTC_002 as this is the HTC demo CID.

You actually need to s-off fastboot oem writecid HTC__001, reboot to bootloader then fastboot oem writecid HTC_001 again, re-lock and flash a generic HTC RUU.

The BCID is overwritten on the 2nd CID change (backup cid).

If you only change the cid once, BCID will take priority and trigger demo mode.

My last 5 HTC devices including my current device were Demo handsets as I get them through work.

Hope this makes things a little clearer.
