[Nexus 6P Accessories] Lupercal:
I purchased the Surface case and holster from Amazon a few days. I thought it was through seidio, but it turns out it was actually a third party.

Anyway, the magnet issue is present. Super disappointed that the case is unusable since it looks and fits so nice otherwise.

I sent an email to support just about 48 hours ago now and still no response from seidio. Pretty disappointed about that too.

I tried popping the little magnet out, but 1. there seems to be enough residual magnetism in the kickstand assembly to trigger the screen off, and 2. I don't know how to remove the kickstand(without breaking anything) and without the magnet it just sticks out...

Pretty sure I already know the answer to this... But is it possible to disable the magnetic lock/unlock feature in the phone's software?

Otherwise, I'm just gonna have to return the case and holster... and look for another holster setup.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] AG206:
That's really unfortunate they added that inner layer of silicon.

I loved loved loved the surface on my Nexus 5. I think I'll pass on it for my 6P.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Pig Vomit:
After living with the Seidio case for a week or so.....my verdict is that I like it. It's not perfect. It is thicker than I would prefer, but not obnoxiously so. Protection is good. I've dropped it. Watched it like it was in slo-mo as it dropped directly on its corner onto the concrete in my garage from my lap as I exited my car.....no problem. I've grown accustomed to the buttons being somewhat recessed....works far better than the Adopted case I had. Case isn't quite as grippy as I would like.....it was fine for my N5, but the increased size and weight of this phone makes me think I would prefer a bit more grip. I have yet to have any issues with the magnet turning off my screen.

If you're looking for a case with a kickstand that isn't too thick.....I think this is probably your best bet. If a kickstand doesn't matter to you, then there may be better options out there. But I'm giving it a thumbs up for my purposes.

Hi, have you tried recovery mode?*

-switch off device*

-press and hold Power button, till you get the Samsung Gear Rebooting.. Screen.*

-press power button several times very short

-the bootloader menue should open

-select recovery by pressing the power button.*

-apply selection by pressing and holding the power button*

After that your watch should reboot in to recovery system. Then you can recover your old settings*

Pls try it.*

What should I do ?

I have a similar / same problem. I think I will need to get it to a service point.

While it performed a firmware update the HR-app did checked my heartrate and I guess this stopped the firmware update.

What now happens is: vibrate-samsung logo-screen off-repeat

When I use these steps:

-switch off device*

-press and hold Power button, till you get the Samsung Gear Rebooting.. Screen.*

-press power button several times very short

-the bootloader menue should open

-select

recover

y by pressing the power button.*

-apply selection by pressing and holding the power button*

The option

recovery

is not available, only

continue

download

and

Power off

.

I guess there is no software left to recover.

Do you know if there is anything I can do myself now?

(There is no wireless download option also, only normal download)

With thanks and greetings wishing everyone a nice day

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Dezl0ck:
Hi everyone. I am in need of assistance with shelltool. I've been flashing ROMs for quite some time and this goes beyond the scope of typical upgrading. I apparently had a bad flash happen and need some help correcting it. The OS appears to work fine, except some applications .cab installers exit before asking device or storage card. I have attempted to load the EnableRapi.cab and Cert_SPCS.cab; however, they exit almost instantly after starting them.

I had this situation happen once before and I was able to oddly enough try to load the original T-Moblie ROM through shelltool (didn't install at all), then try NBD 8.3. which brought me to a boot loader screen after doing a hard reset, but didn't install NBD 8.3. So far I'm not having much luck in recreating the experiment.

Is there a way to force a Wizard into bootloader mode using shelltool or some other utility? I can restore the device if I can get that far.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] honcorrd:
it's time for my first post

Hi, have been reading this forum for about 3 month and i enyoy it and learn a lot. Have been try about 7 roms and like all. It's time to payback.

Yo can enter bootload by pressing and holding the voice command button and then softreset, keep holding the voice command button util you reach bootload.

Other thing you can do is run the original rom by its executable program not using shelltool.

:) Good luck

Help, Stuck at multicolor screen. XDA Mini S

Please tell me how did you restore your phone? i am flashed touchflo rom to my phone and some how it is stuck to the multicolor screen.

Can you help me out?

Thanking you in anticipation.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] S.V.I:
1 put phone into bootloader by pressing and holding camera button+reset hole. Keep holding the camera button untill you see the tricollor screen.

2 plug the phone into the computer (wait to hear the noise that it found hardware

3 Flash a rom you know worked (maybe your original/ maybe someone elses... maybe even mine ;) )

4 wait untill the flashing finishes and "Tap Screen..." appeares before unplugging.

(If you have a G4 then I advise you to flash the original rom, or make sure your ipl/spl is propper. check the G4 forum to be sure, or ask Mestrini - The creator of the Wizard service tool. I believe he has a G4 and knows more about it than most)

Happy Flashing :)

Now the Kindle will not turn and when i plug it into my pc, it is showing as an HTC Dream.

[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sandnes74:
Hi.

I ended up in a bootloop now..Tried to install the beta,but that went wrong.

I have also downloaded Huawei extractor tool

but are stuck at step 6... Command prompt!? I dont know what that is in the app...And i cant find the image files anywhere either..Is there a way to fix this bootloop?
[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _shortCircuit_:
Hi, first question:

Step 6 of what? I guess a tutorial, but linking it would be good.

Second:

Do you have an unlocked bootloader?
[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sandnes74:
Hi..

I was trying to unlock bootloader,there i was stucked at point 6 in the guide but never min,i followed another guide and bootloader is now unlocked.

I was updating from B130 to B140 yesterday. I did it 4-5 times cause under info it said that i was still at B130 after sucessfully update.

Still it was showing B130 after flashing to 140.

I tried so to update to MM,then stuck.

Since my bootloader now is unlocked,i can try to flash B130 im guessing?
[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _shortCircuit_:
I also did the update to b140, but it still says b130. So I stayed on the b130.

You can try to flash the full b130 again but if it doesn't work, just start from the b100 and update with the incremental update again up to b130.

For now I will not try to flash the MM beta update because it fails all the time on my device. The full MM should be coming out soon anyway.

Good luck :)
[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sandnes74:
thanks.

Well,i tried to update to 130 but failed at 5%.

Just to be safe,i extract the UPDATE file from the zip and put in dload in sd card,right? And then try the 3 button update...

My phone is now saying unlocked under fastboot..
[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _shortCircuit_:
I had to do everything over bootloader since the Huawei update button combination was not working for me.

Also, my phone said unlocked even though it wasn't. I still had to unlock it and was only able after to flash over fastboot / bootloader.

To flash over fastboot, you have to use the Huawei firmware extractor to extract firmware parts and then flash the .img files one by one over fastboot.

I already gave my flash sequence here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64570443&postcount=4

That worked for me ;)
[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sandnes74:
Thanks.

As i understand,bootloader and fastboot is two different Things.

Bootloader is volum button up + Power button?

There i can get this Wipe cache and so on?

In that case i cant get in there..When i try that,the phone reboots even before i get time to press one of the options...

Fastboot however,is volum button Down + powerbutton and that Works fine. i can be there without reboot at all.

So what i wondering of then is,can i flash these files over fastboot also or only bootloader?

So right now i try the 3 button update With B100.

So far its on 90% and have been that for 10 minutes...
[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _shortCircuit_:
Well, the bootloader and fastboot are basically the vol- power combo, the aka "rescue boot" in the Honor 7.

You can follow THIS guide to unlock your bootloader to be able to "fastboot flash" firmware pieces.

Here is a little guide on how to fastboot flash firmware parts (Go to part V): http://xdaforums.com/honor-7/general/guide-beginners-how-to-root-update-fix-t3255452

And here is the flash sequence I used to make it work (already linked it in my previous post): http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64570443&postcount=4
[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sandnes74:
Ok..

The phone is already unlocked.

I was now able to flash the image files in step 5 in the guide u mention (Fix bootloop). I used the image files from B100.

After reboot the phone automaticly goes to Huawei software installing and get stuck on 90%...

I have no chance to get it in bootload either,only fastboot.

The guide tells to be in bootload to flash,but i cant get there since its rebooting instantly when i get there.

From cmd i was flashing and there it says "finished" after every step,even in fastboot.

Still,i now get this software update screen automaticly and get stuck there.

I Guess im out of options.
[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _shortCircuit_:
Try to force shutdown it by holding the power button and then leaving it to turn on alone. Delete your dload folder in the SD card if it goes to the update screen again and then repeat the procedure to force power off.

Let me know
[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sandnes74:
Ok. forced shutdown.deleted the dload folder and force Power off. Still,every time i come to the same screen: Huawei software installing.
[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _shortCircuit_:
Ok if that didn't work, try to go into fastboot, reflash using my sequence and when you are done, while still in fastboot, do "fastboot reboot".

If that doesn't work, I'm out of ideas right now too.
[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sandnes74:
didnt work..

But thanks for help anyway :)

EDIT: Strange thing happened now.

It suddenly stopped updating and booted normally.

Im back in my phone now :)

But a strange part is that i was flashing the files from B100,but under phone info it says i have B130...

What is right? I almost dont dare to update it to anything anymore now..

Another thing thats strange...Now my phone says its only total 5 GB memory on it.. It should be 16 total.
[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _shortCircuit_:
Well that happened to me too. You should definitely make a factory reset to get your space back.

Then, if you feel like it, I would reflash the B100 (or try over the vol+ vol- power combo again)

Happy that you are back with us :highfive:

Hello,

To start i'm familiar with android, rooting, custom roms etc. But now I have this very nice new phone this Z3 Compact. A really nice phone but i want more. I just can't get my phone downgraded to .93 firmware to root it without unlocking the bootloader. But i some way it just won't boot properly after flashing one of those. Know i've tried .264 firmware and that one just worked fine.

Mayby you guys could help me out.

[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bandario:
Hi there

I have had success with doing what you are trying to do.

Search for the file: D5803_23.0.A.2.93_Customized CE1.ftf - it came as a zip but I can't find the link now, it's on here somewhere in the development or original development part of the z3c forum.

And flash it using flashtool64, being sure to check boxes for wiping APPS_LOG AND USERDATA and when it asks if you want to use script, click no.

After you have successfully booted into that firmware, carefully follow instructions for giefroot to gain root access via USB and your computer.

http://xdaforums.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/giefroot-rooting-tool-cve-2014-4322-t3011598

Somebody else will have to help you from there because I could not work out how to upgrade out of that old firmware without losing root. I ended up unlocking the bootloader and flashing viper-x which is pre-rooted marshmallow rom by Jenkins. I then applied DRM restore and it appears to have worked...I got the phone as a hand-me-down so I don't really care about losing warranty. It already had a smashed back.

Good luck.

You'll end up unlocking that son of a ***** some time ;p

It would be great for some little help!!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Revontheus:
I can guess why you don't want to unlock your bootloader, if its because you don't want to lose Sony's camera functionality and post image processing along with X-Reality

--------------------------------------

>Backup your DRM Keys using backup-ta get it here

>Unlock your bootloader via Sony's Website

>Flash any custom kernel with recovery pre-installed

>Flash SuperSU latest zip

>Flash this zip file to restore DRM Functions ( credits to [MENTION=4699816]jimRnor[/MENTION] )

>And you have a perfectly rooted phone with busybox installed

------------------------------------------

If you are still on kitkat ( Firmware .93 ) its very easy to get 5.1.1, just download a .246 (5.1.1) custom rom found in the Android Development Section, most custom roms are pre-rooted meaning you can flash them and still have root access on your device.

All you need to do is achieve root by using GIEFroot, and afterwards install NUTs Lockeddualrecovery so you can flash the rom. ( Take Note this only works for the .93 firmware [KK] )

If you plan to you use flashtool you cannot gain root on lollipop

unless you have unlocked bootloader

. Flashtool's main purpose is for locked bootloader devices to recover faster from bootloops and the like.
[Moto X Q&A] cell2011:
I would like someones opinion on this phone. Its works and everything just separated a little from housing. Is there anything i could do? Maybe just a case to cover the back? The screen just has couple stratches other than that phone is fine. Here is a pic. Im getting this for real cheap. Charging port is fine too
[Moto X Q&A] jco23:
I think you can get a a new back replacement - couple that with a skin, and it might hold together. tough to tell really from that pic though.
[Moto X Q&A] cell2011:
But a case could hold it together too? Maybe even electrical tape around the side of the charging port going up the right side of the phone?

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RuneMason1:
I just bought a Galaxy S6 Edge+ on AT&T 32 gb, and I'd like to use Google Voice. I can set the default sms sending app to Google Voice after clearing the SMS default from the Messaging app, but after a few hours, it seems to reset. Is there any way to lock the default settings so they cannot be changed automatically? That it has to ask if I want it to change and I can refuse a change permanently if I decide I want to?

Mason
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RuneMason1:
If it helps, I think I figured out what the problem is. There's a secondary default for the SMS app, for whatever reason it's under Connections > More Connection Settings. Is there a way to manually add an app to this setting's list? Or disable this setting entirely? Either this, or can I get an SMS app that won't automatically or repeatedly take defaults and permissions that I don't want it to? Basically, the endgame here is an SMS app that can receive my carrier's messages, but won't take the SMS default send permissions away from the Google Voice app. And I do not want to use Hangouts.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poojiggles7:
Hey everyone,

I need some opinions from the community on what to do here. I currently have a Galaxy S6 that I got in August. Although it's a great phone, I feel as though it is extremely weak, especially in the battery life category. I just got offered a discount on the Moto X Pure, unlocked so I can just go switch my SIM, and I was wondering if it would be a good idea to go ahead and pull the trigger on this deal? It is about a $100 discount on the phone, with customization still an option. Let me know what you guys think!
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PityOnU:
Of the two, the Moto X will have better longevity, as it is using a fairly established chipset and Motorola have open-sourced the kernel (more custom ROM's, and therefore updates, for a longer time). The Moto X also has removable storage support, is completely unlocked, and support pretty much every cellular band known to man.

However, it is also significantly larger than your current phone, and the display is not quite as good (this can be argued one way or the other, but I think Samsung has the best displays right now, hands down).

For me, sweet spot on a phone is 32GB of storage, so with your proposed discount that'd be about $350+tax from Moto Maker. Honestly, that's a really good deal for what you are getting. Just make sure you can handle the size.
