[Moto X Q&A] Asisentr:
I have a XT1060 on Android 5.1, it is rooted however the boot-loader is locked. I'm trying to install Safestrap, but when I open the app they Install Recovery button is grayed out and it says "State: Write Protect Enabled". There's a button at the bottom that says "Reboot to Write Protect Off Mode", but whenever I press that it just sends me to recovery mode and nothing happens. Can anyone help me and tell me what I'm supposed to do?

Give up and join those of us waiting/hoping for an exploit to unlock the xt1060. It currently can't be done on 4.4.4 and up although there is a method to flash a rooted Rom which comes from crashxxl.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adambombz:
Yo guys I have an unusual case of the Google search bar missing from the recents menu on my nexus 6. I'm on 6.0.1 right now but I have had this problem since marshmallow. I've dealt with this before on lollipop and fixed it by going into safe mode and clearing cache and stuff but it doesn't work in this case. The curious thing is that sometimes system UI will crash while I'm using the phone which afterwords the search bar does appear in recents! It'll stay like this until I boot does anyone know what's going on.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StykerB:
Its a known marshmallow issue with all nexus devices. You'll probably be hard pressed to find a solution due to the search bar not being used much, to the point where custom roms include options to disable it.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Poojan Patel:
i had a same problem. for me there were two apps which were causing this problem. UC Browser and Greenify.

if are using any of these apps, freeze(if you are planning to use it) and reboot or uninstall
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NOSTALGIA:
nice.. i have uc browser because of the video playback capability

so then, this is the cause on why im missing my search bar on recents then...
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adambombz:
I do use greenify. I froze it with TB and rebooted but I'm still having the same problem. Do you think there could be other apps causing the problem as well?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Poojan Patel:
then may be there is another app that is causing problem. for me it was greenify and uc browser.For you there may be other than these two app.

here what i did to find causing app.

1) froze all app and reboot

2) unfroze one app and reboot

3) did 2nd step until i found my problem causing app.

you can try above steps to find.

[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gasperoni:
Hello

I flashed the Rom Angels & Demons, because it looked interesting. But after flashing and rebooting I realised, that it didn't contain german language support, which seems weird, because there were so many other languages available.

So I decided to use my old rom, which I backed up before. After selecting the restore option and the backup from the sd card it didn't restore. I got an error saying “cannot restore system–mounted read only”

I have no idea, what to do now. Please help. I tried it 4 times and wiped the data and cache etc

[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gasperoni:
I would love to, if I would know what solved it.

Here's what I did:

After finding out than A&D-Rom didn't have german language I tried to restore my backup. But that didn't work and I posted that issue. Then I though ''what the hell...'' and tried a delirium aosp rom I had on my sd card and never tried. I tried it for a moment, went back to twrp and it asked me for an option, that i could enable, something like ''allowing modification'' or sth. I allowed it by swiping. I don't know why that option appeared. Then i tried restoring my backup and after 125 second it successfully restored it.

Details of Phone

Model: SM-N910G (India)

Android: 5.0.1 (Stock, Official ROM)

Build: LRX22C.N910GDTY1BOK1

Details of Errors

1. Hangs and restarts every now and then. Problem started suddenly.

2. After restart, going to Download Mode with error >> Could not do normal boot. ddi : mmc read failed

3. Unable to restart, going to Download Mode always.

4. Removed battery, started in Recovery mode and rebooted from there to turn the phone on.

5. Again same problem, hangs and restarts -> Download mode.

Solution Tried

1. Full factory reset (from Recovery wipe data and within phone both)

2. Reloading of ROM from Samsung Kies

3. Reloading of ROM from Samsung Service Center

Nothing worked. :(:(:(

New Errors appeared

1. dm-verity verification failed in Recovery Mode

2. Attention Message: "An error has occurred with the fingerprint sensor"

3. Unable to store WiFi information (every-time need to connect)

Questions

1. What might be the issue of this? Hardware / Software / OS related?

2. As per Samsung Service Center it might be the issue with Motherboard. (Cost. INR 9000/- or USD 135) - They are not sure

3. My handset is out of warranty, should I try something else?

I am totally upset for this. Any help and suggestion will be highly appreciated.

Thanks a lot.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SquirtingCherry:
Sounds like a damaged EMMC (NAND) , you can try fixing it by flashing stock with a PIT file. If that fails it's a hardware defect and you should claim warranty.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rahul319:

Thanks mate.

Perhaps you are correct. Now phone is completely dead, upon boot it is showing: "Device Memory Damaged".

Can you suggest the possible solution. Can only internal memory be changed or I have to change the complete motherboard?

So i removed it and now everything working perfectly

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lewis.james.750983:
How does the internal memory (emmc) gets damaged on a user error? I think that must be a manufacturing defect.

btw, I have a similar problem with random freezing and restarts since I updated my Note 4 (Tmobile) from 4.4.4 to 5.11

I used a Tekxodus URV5 (5.11) and these problems started, then I tried to fix the problem .. I flashed stock 5.11 (DOK2), TWRP, flashed the latest Tekxodus URV6.5 (after wiping my internal memory, cache, davlik.) ... Same problems.

I guess lesson learned is to stay a way from Lollipop and stay with Kitkat.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hughescmr:
Ditto

I am also very curious about this.

I have a note 4 which exhibited these same symptoms and error messages. Although it was in any app at any stage or merely when the phone was in standby.

NB this was purchased direct from the Samsung store.

I sent it back to Samsung two or three times without them fixing the issue. On the last time I was told that they would not fix the phone – which is still well within warranty – because the phone “has been subjected to severe physical damage internally”.

The unit has always been well kept, there is no water damage and there is not a scratch on it….anywhere. also there was no indication of this severe physical damage during the previous Samsung inspections.

I can’t think of a good way to contest this prove this is a problem with the phone and not my use of it.

Samsung are not responsive when contacted. Is there any advice in the forum?? Many Thanks

Hi Raj. No luck :(

I have got an exchange offer from Flipkart with Rs. 23000/- and have replaced it with my old phone; because replacing motherboard with Rs. 18500/- with only 3 months warranty doesn't make any sense.

I have got a new phone with 1 year warranty with an option of further warranty extension.

emmc_read error

I am now very confident that the "emmc_read error" message is a caused by firmware problem.

I have a N910F for a long time, that was working like a Swiss watch, on the 5.0.x Android.

Recently I've got an update to 5.1.1 and installed it.

The update went through very smooth but after the phone started for the first time it began to freeze.

A few times i have got emmc_read failed message on boot screen and in the logcat the most notable error was SecureStorage TA driver related

it fails to write /efs partition :

I/SecureStorage( 4914): [INFO]: SPID(0x00000000)Secure Storage Daemon sent config to TA/driver

I/SecureStorage( 4914): [INFO]: SPID(0x00000000)Secure Storage Daemon stopped

Although the directory and premissions are fine (i've checked many times)

Odin cannot flash with or without PIT file:

<ID:0/009> hidden.img.ext4

<ID:0/009> FAIL! (Write)

As a conclusion i can suggest that the update causes the problem.

I am pretty sure there could be a tool to check emmc, but i could not find any and i am lazy to develop it myself, but for the guys from TWRP this could be a good hint.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yaoers:
I'm not entirely sure the emmc fail is due to updates. i'm still on KK and today i experienced the emmc failure. Major lag so i restarted it but took forever. Then, about 2 hours later, it crashed while opening up snapchat. I try to restart the phone and it goes into download mode saying "emmc read fail". Can't believe so many people are being affected by this.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scamex:
If you flashed stock ROM with PIT file and the phone doesnt work properly i think your EMMC is corrupted. EMMC can be corrupted by a lot of thing like bad custom rom, ported recovery, etc... Search for a tutorial to flash with PIT and REPARTITION and if that didnt work the EMMC is the fault for sure. You can change the EMMC only very easy if you go to a GSM service center... or buy a hot air station, a leaded solder wire, a wick wire and the EMMC chip.

So first try repartition the phone and if doesnt work just change that EMMC.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NYiCoN:
Its a software issue. I had the exact same issue with my T-Mobile version SM-N910T. I was able to resolve it by using ODIN to install the stock EPE3 along with the modem of COD6. After the phone restarted I placed the phone in download mode again and from there went on ODIN to install the EPE3 modem. After the phone restarts it should boot straight to the home screen.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaKillaz98:
I do believe that is similar to my issue, on TouchWiz, I will just get crashes that shut off the phone and the mmc issue. On Cyanogenmod, I don't get the mmc crashes, but at random times, my cell service will cut out and stop working, it eventually restores itself, or sometimes it triggers a kernel panic. I tried backing up my efs from TWRP and then restoring the back up multiple times, first time was 0 seconds, second was 104 seconds. Either time seems wrong. But after constant swipe to restores, It stopped doing the lag, I wonder if the update somehow wrote iffy data that was causing problems on the partition. From what I have also noticed, the mmc issue (at least for me) seems that the chip just becomes incredibly slow for a short time and then speeds back up, when I reboot from TWRP or the OS. It hangs at black for a while and then the phone seems to boot itself.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] virtualdj:
I have your exact same problem: still on KK 4.4.4 (stock, no root) the phone always went well until yesterday... First it seems to freeze (also when using the power button) and then I cannot boot again until I removed the battery.

Then I got the emmc read fail error, removed the battery, restarted and it booted, but still sometimes there are major lags (never seen before).

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lewis.james.750983:
Lesson learned

My R.I.P. Note4 (N910T) was a used phone.

Lesson learned .. buy a note 4 on Android 5.0.1, downgrade to Kitkat 4.4.4 ... disable OTA updates, security policy updates from samsung. Live happily ever after :D
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chappatti:
Yes, I can see exactly how this is happening. These used phones are being "reprogrammed" by sellers using a serial box or such device, and they are messing up the efs/drk/IMEI or even knox during the restore to stock. This then sets up the emmc to get corrupted.

Yes, stay completely away from used phones outside the USA, or make sure it is manufacturer refurbished.

Hi guys mine is N910G,

I have experienced all issue mentioned above and pray to god it wasnt hatdware issue or my emmc.

Tried all attempts to get my phone back to normal again, first attempt i root my phone than use the latest stock rom downloaded from sammobile. That dvm security issue prompt. Secondly I moved all security file using titanium backup, knox file. It helps a lot. Yet the restarting issue kept persisted. Thirdly i tried to find another solution which is using dr. Ketan rom which i really recommand, yet still the restarting issue still remains. Tried finding the best kernel and recovery for this rooted phone. Got it from dr ketan xda threat. The restarting issue is almost solved as i uninstalled several suspects applications i.e nova launcher, its just several times freeze and restarts in a day. And i finally i found this threat and finds out that really makes sense that fb application might be the issue, i m quite active with the fb thing but did not notice that it causes the issue. No hasitate i uninstalled fb app right away, and ever since, my phone hasnt restart until now, removed the fb app just this morning though and its been 7 hours, i ll get back to you guys for the updates 2 or 3 days from now.
