[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vasra:
I've been out of the loop and didn't find the answer by searching the forums, so:

Does anybody know of a Marshmallow 6.0 Touchwiz port (say Note5 based) for Note 3?

I know there will be compromises, but the 5.1.1 port seems to work ok (as long as you use the Note 3 camera to do HDR).

I know of the AOSP/CM ports. Not interested in those.

Yes, Note 3 is getting long in the tooth, but it has enough RAM/ROM/CPU to run Marshmallow decently.

Wonder if anybody has found a touchwiz based 6.0x port that works on Note 3?

Thanks. I'm aware of DarkLord based 5.x.x. ports, I'm running one of those on my Note 3 right now.

I was just wondering if anybody know of any TW 6.0.x ports ready or under way for Note 3.

That topic is filled with people calling it fake. Apparently, the guy just stole someone's MM themed 5.1.1 ROM and changed the build.prop to make it look like it was actually 6.0.1. However, the SDK version is still 22, which means it is actually 5.1.1. A real MM ROM should have SDK version 23.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProudRed:
Cannot get into recovery. Device seems to be bricked.

After Sony logo there is nothing else other than black screen. Please help me recover my device.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aaronkatrini:
Don't Panic, this can easily be recovered. However the data that was inside I'm afraid is gone forever. Maybe it can be recovered maybe not, anyway I'm giving you some easy steps you can follow to recover your device.

1. Download Flashtool

2. Download the Firmware you want to load into the phone. (Search in the forum for .ftf ---make sure it is for Xperia Z --- files or you can download Xperifirm and make them on your own)

3. Once you have the .ftf file ready click on the Flash (Lightning) icon and select the firmware (.ftf) [Mode to flash is FLASHMODE]

4. When the phone is just one second from booting up (I know you are now in a cycle - loop but try as many times until you get it right), with the VOLUME DOWN button pressed connect it into the PC.

5. Wait for flash - About 10-15 min and you are done.

For any questions ask here. Good luck
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProudRed:
I recovered my phone via Sony PC companion. Succesfuly managed to flash dual recovery again. Flashed ROM and Gappps.

This time Phone didnt start after reboot. There is not even a sony logo. No reboots at all and now it seems bricked ?

If anyone is reading please help me out.

I tried using Flashtools getting into Fastboot mode (Blue light flashing), but Flashtoool responded saying needs to installl drivers. I did that as well, but now the flashtools wont start at all.

I am trying via pc companion, Its stuck on a step where its asking me to remove my battery.. How do I recover ? Please help. Thanks in advance.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aaronkatrini:
Can you get to the point where the phone lights up the GREEN LED (flash mode) ?

Also what version of windows are you using?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProudRed:
Hi, Flash mode is working for me. I have recovered couple of times using flashtools in flash mode. But fastboot mode is not working for me. It says drivers are missing though I have installed drivers..

I went through tthe threads and could find a workking method to unlock the bootloader. Sony has too many appps which I do not need, I want to get rid of them as it consumes a lot of batttery. Hence a custom Rom with basic stuffs arre the soolution.

If you can help me unlock my BL I'd be thankful

And one more question, does TWRP's Latest version only works for Unlocked BL ?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aaronkatrini:
First, Try to do things in order!!!

You are very messy, first you needed to unbrick the device, now you want to unlock its BL and want to know if you can install TWRP!

Install a stock firmware, make sure you can unlock the phone (by checking in the settings menu)...

And post some info...

In your device, open the dialler and enter *#*#7378423#*#* to access the service menu.

Tap Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. If Bootloader unlock allowed says Yes, then you can continue with the next step. If it says No, or if the status is missing, your device cannot be unlocked.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProudRed:
I would like to know if there are custom kernels available for battery saving ? I flashed Zomie kernel and it was repeatedly booting my device into multirom recovery.

Right now I am on mokee, can I use any custom kernel with it ? If yes what ? I couldnt find many custom kernels for the device and what about Roms ? Not many custom Roms as well, only found RR and Mokee. Slim LP does not have a working link and couldnt find other popular roms too for this device.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aaronkatrini:
I never tried new kernels, only thing install Kernel Adiutor and underclock, also change the governor mode.

As for the rom I use the modified stock rom by [MENTION=5627933]androidexpert35[/MENTION], it provides good balance between performance and battery life. For any Rom you should write in their dedicated post. Keep experimenting but do it in a reasonable way and don't try to ask for everything, search and read others. Good luck
[Android Studio] InfinitePeace:
Hey hey what is up!

Well, I am developing an application but I don't want to use Android Virtual Device to debug it. But now I am in a dilemma about what device should I use to do that job. I have some recent android versions devices but they are from my parents, my little baby is a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, but I don't know if it's recommened(IN MY OPINION) to use this pretty device.

My problem is simple and it's easy to understand because I bought the device recently and I am scared to make something wrong, I dont know.

What do you think?
[Android Studio] Max1smith:
If you scared damage to the device. I will recommended used genymotion.
[Android Studio] InfinitePeace:
But I will hve to pay for that software right?
[Android Studio] klisiecki:
Are you scared to damage your device or why? If you didn't root your phone and you don't make apps with some wired hacks, then it's safe. I don't think that you can make an app that will damage your device without root.

Other thing is app performance etc. Galaxy S6 is top-performance device, so your app may run very well on this phone, but may have problems on older devices.
[Android Studio] appdeko:
Nothing should go wrong, as long as you don't mess with custom ROMs and/or root.

Or just get something really low-end, running 2.3 - so, you'll FEEL the framerate of your game ;)
[Android Studio] fvalpha:
Nexus 6 series is a good choice.
[Android Studio] Asmok78:
Why? If problem is very slow work, you can use genymotion. This is faster and good to test app.

Don't worry :) If you don't have rooted phone, nothing bad will happen.

However, you should test applications on several different devices. In my opinion, minimum is: 4'' screen, 5'' or 6'' with high dpi, two 7'' tablets with low and high dpi, minimum one tablet 10''. In addition, one of the phones should have Android version 4.x and one should have 5.x. Layouts sometimes look different on different versions. Between 4.x and 5.x is some differences.

For example, many devices interprets -1dp in layouts as match_parrent, but some devices see it as eg. 300dp. Another example - some methods with on Android 4.x does not require permission. In Android 5.0 need system priviledges or is deprecated. Some thing from 5.0 don't exists on 4.0.

In summary, if you debug app on your devices, nothing bad will happen. If you want test app, you should test on multiple devices, so emulator seems to be necessary. I recommend genymotion.

[Honor 7 General] paulobrien:
Note: This guide is only tested on the Honor 7 B320 Marshmallow release

The Marshmallow Beta for the Honor 7 is great, making a very nice device feel even better. But one thing missing is the option to 'adopt' microSD cards as Internal Storage, something that is particularly useful on the Honor 7 given its limited 16GB capacity.

Fear not, you can do it manually!

In order to set adopted storage up, you will need a computer with working 'adb' and, of course, a microSD card in your phone, the faster the better. Here's the process!

1. BACK UP THE DATA YOU HAVE ON YOUR MICROSD CARD. Your card will be formatted by this process, so make sure you have saved any pictures, videos etc. from your card to your PC before you start.

2. Decide how you want to split your card. You can either commit 100% of the card to internal storage, or split between internal storage and conventional SD. This option is useful if you like to unplug your card and put it in your PC. I would probably recommend committing the whole card.

3. Open your command window / terminal on your computer and type the 'adb shell' command (with your phone connected of course). You will need to enable USB debugging in developer settings (which in turn is displayed by tapping the build number of the device 5 times) in order to see the option.

4. Type 'sm list-disks' to list the disks available for adoption. It'll look something like below - take note of the disk ID (disk:179:160 in this example).

​

5. Partition the disk. For this we use the 'sm partition DISK TYPE RATIO' command. For example, to partition the disk above as fully adopted storage (aka private) I'd use the command 'sm partition disk:179:160 private'. If I wanted a 50/50 split between adopted and regular, I'd use the command 'sm partition disk:179:160 mixed 50'. Easy right?

6. This process will take a while, but when it's done, the Settings -> Additional Settings -> Storage view on your device should show the new Internal Storage. Note that, for some reason, the free space isn't reported correctly, however everything seems to work OK. When you install apps, they will generally install automatically to the adopted SD, although you can manually move things around if you want to, perhaps for performance reasons (the real Internal storage will likely always be a bit faster).

​

7. If you want to see how you are doing for space, you can use a third party tool such as FreeSpace or FreeSpace Plus.

​

And that's it! Let us know how you get on, and enjoy your new, expanded Honor 7!

[Honor 7 General] magnea:
interesting but what do i win with it
[Honor 7 General] FakkaHe:
Hey mate, do you mind if i ask a few questions regarding the use of this?

The only thing i had to do, to get apps and download etc to save on the SD card was to change default storage to SD, in storage menu instead of internal.

Now everything i download or install is stored on my SD card. Huawei solved this by emulating your SD card to look like the internal storage.

This feature is in both 5.0.2 & 6.0.

I attached some photos. (Note: I already have some downloads and photos on my internal storage, took me a while to buy a sd card and i have been lazy so i haven't moved any files yet.)
[Honor 7 General] paulobrien:
In a nutshell, regular SD storage only allows you to put limited types of data on the card, with adopted storage everything can go on the card. It's a lot more 'set up and forget' than the old way.

P
[Honor 7 General] FakkaHe:
Oh.. So even if i change the default storage, like i said, it will still save some data in the internal storage?

Edit: My bad i didn't read the post properly...

If i adopt, can i still use it as usual? I mean remove the sd card without anything happening to my files?
[Honor 7 General] paulobrien:
It depends how you partition. With full adoption, you can't read files from the card as they are all encrypted.

P
[Honor 7 General] albaoe:
Tried it in B313 and is not working. The SDCard appears as damaged, and prompts me to format it. I noticed that the process "sm partition disk:170:169 private" just lasted about 5 seconds...which is weird if you say it takes a while...

PS: Got OTA update to B320.Gonna update and then try again.

I used this on B330 and i´m a little bit confused.

System shows internal and sdcard 8gb free space

FreeSpace shows sdcard 29gb free but not an adopted sdcard

ES explorer doesn´t show any sdcard also other apps like airdroid show any sdcard just internal with 10gb ?

update:

after working with the phone (install apps, copy pictures) it seems that the adopted sdcard works properly

update 2:

there are now some apps that did not start. reinstalling doesn´t help. very strange
[Honor 7 General] paulobrien:
Can you post pics from your storage settings page?

P
[Honor 7 General] Bender007:
I just made a factory-reset and try again to adopt the sdcard

I will report what happen then

update

after factory reset my phone can´t read the sdcard so i put the sdcard into my pc but windows says ´no disk´.

with partition wizard i saw 2 partitions, 16mb primary fat32 and 2nd with the rest of space

I tried to delete both partitions and format the sdcard but nothing happens.

maybe the card is dead...:confused::(
[Honor 7 General] rspn69:
Install mini partition tool on your system to see those sd card because format of the sd card would have changed to ext in place of fat . You can reformat your SD card through mini partition tool in FAT 32 format. Here is the link:D:D

Do not forget to pree thanks button if it helped
[Honor 7 General] Bender007:
mini partition tool is now called partition wizard ;) :laugh:

As you can see in the pics. the 1st partition is the problem. Partition wizard and other apps can´t format/delete or anything else the sdcard.

But that´s off Topic... i will buy another sdcard and try again
[Honor 7 General] paulobrien:
Remember you can 'sm' back to 'public' to restore back to one normal partition.

P
[Honor 7 General] Bender007:
Nope, doesn´t work. i can´t ´sm´ back the partition.:(

it says something like "Java exceptio...bla...bla....'400 20 Command failed'"
[Honor 7 General] paulobrien:
Exactly which command did you use?

P
[Honor 7 General] Bender007:
i use in an adb shell exactly this

sm partition disk:179:160 public
[Honor 7 General] paulobrien:
Right, yes, that should be correct. I wonder if it's a timeout issue with a slower card?

P
[Honor 7 General] crislink89:
I've got a question. Enabling storage adoption will adopt SD card maximum speeds , right?

I mean, the speed of the internal SD is almost the double of a UHC 1 card speeds. If i keep my apps and things on the internal SD they will use those speeds.

If I enable storage adoption with the SD card, the speeds will cap to the External SD card speeds ( 45 read, 20 write) ?
[Honor 7 General] Bender007:
after serveral try that error comes not everytime, sometimes after a few seconds there´s just the prompt without a message

but my phone and my pc can´t read the sdcard.

they say both ´not formatted´but if i format the sdcard nothing happens like you can see on the pics above.

i think the card is broken.

i will try it with a new faster card next days
[Honor 7 General] paulobrien:
No, adopting won't affect internal speeds at all.

Strange behaviour

Hi,

Thanks so much for the details.

I've managed to adopt my 128 gb sandisk SD card using your command through adb on my Honor 7 with B330 release.

Unfortunately, the behaviour is strange has it is acting if I've done nothing.

Indeed, the free storage left is only the internal storage..... For example, on the screenshot you can see that I have 7,68 Go free on both internal and SD card. I full up those 7,68 GB and when I tried to copy more than that it says that my internal storage is full...

Looks like the Honor does not manage this adoption process properly....

Fortunately I managed to format again my SDCard using sm format public command but I would definitely prefer to adopt it properly....

If you have any clues what goes wrong on my setup I would be happy :fingers-crossed:

Unable to apply OTA update to B730 with this trick.

Hello,

First thing: thank you for this tuto to use our SDcard to extend the tiny internal storage of our smartphones!

Unfortunately, I am receiving the OTA update to B370 since several days now and wasn't able to aply it. The thing is : download is ok, it reboots then fails within few seconds with the message "software install failed". The only option is to reboot the system. Once rebooted, the notification for update available comes back.

I took time today to format external card as external storage (beware : everything on it will disappear! do your own BACKUP). And voilà! the same process (notification -> download -> reboot -> verifying then installing update) applies without any error.

Knowing this, I will wait to be blocked by internal storage full to reapply the trick.

I don't know why the storage adoption cannot be inverted with a gracefull option. The only way is to format SDcard. :(

Hope this help...
[Honor 7 General] McAttenzione:
Works fine on the Honor 5C until you try to start the apps which install on the sd card, but rebooting the phone seems to fix that.
[Honor 7 General] Xdadev is good 4U:
same problem here. I ll try to reformat. Did you try partial adoption ?
[Honor 7 General] Xdadev is good 4U:
SDCard adoption + B370 update WORKS

so I reformatted as 50/50 public/adopted . and B370 OTA installation went smoothly !!

now I just wonder whether it is because of the repartition or because I did some app cleanup before....
