[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Corrupting system won't affect the OS number on the bootloader screen. "OS" is a bit misleading, it actually indicates the firmware number, not the ROM version.

The bug is easily reproduced by flashing certain TWRP versions (not sure exactly which ones). Its very common. We see this pop up by folks almost on a daily basis (OS number blank) especially folks using older TWRP versions.

Additionally, its not clear whether your suggestion is what actually worked for him (and exactly what nandroid build, etc.). OP should post the solution that worked, 1) for benefit of "helpers" like you, to confirm your fix is what worked; and 2) for the benefit of others that may run into the same issue.

---------- Post added at 09:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:31 AM ----------

The phone would not boot since the bootloader was relocked. This is what happens when you relock by definition, as relocking expects RUU to be run.

---------- Post added at 09:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:35 AM ----------

RUU existing for the Desire Z (I had the same phone); and in fact for as long as HTC has been making Android devices.

RUU = ROM Update Utility

Its usually a Windows executable (although the zip format can be extracted to work with fastboot flash, or put right on an SD card) that will completely re-image the phone to stock firmware and software. You need to run the RUU that matches the phones carrier version (CID) and model (MID), and not all versions have RUU. Otherwise, the RUU will fail and not install anything.

RUU also requires a locked or relocked bootloader (although this requirement is bypassed with s-off).

RUU will also wipe any user data on the phone (including internal storage "media").

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] bernd.k:
I also noticed that, but i had it in my pocket and after taking it out the always-on screen went on again, if i did not press the button while taking it out. But as i actually have the phone in a clear view cover, and there the always-on screen is deavtivated completely, i cannot say for sure.

My phone did the same thing the other day. Once I picked it up the display came back on.

I figured the phone was sad because I wasn't using it. LOL.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] bernd.k:
So after the night the display was still on. So just laying on the table did not turn it off. But i got a dead pixel over night. Well not really as the red pixel is only shown on the always-on display. As soon as i turn the phone on, the red pixel is gone.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] johanbiff:
there is a option in the settings that puts the screen completly off when it`s in a pocket or in the complete darkness since it`s using the light sensor on the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] natefish:
I found in mind the feature fit toggled of somehow and I had to turn it back on. Not sure why.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] LeBornJamesFan:
Where do you find this setting?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] johanbiff:
Settings->Display--> keep screen closed(or something like that)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] jejagua:
In my case, the actual setting for always on display keeps toggling OFF. Same for Edge Screen (Edge Panels). This has happened about five times since I bought the phone last week. I can't correlate it to anything like low battery or permissions. I guess a conflicting setting or app could be the culprit though. This has happened a few times even when I'm not using the phone for a short time. Any thoughts?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] pycoder:
My S7 edge is doing the same thing also. In my case the Always On toggle is still set to on. I have no idea why the screen is just `turning off`.

It's a shame; I really got used to the always on.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] pycoder:
Just a follow up; I determined why AOD kept turning itself off. Apparently dust or grime got between my tempered glass screen protector and the screen. Once I removed the tempered glass protector, the AOD began functioning again.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] discoverymen1999:
The same!

Don't know why, but the same happens to me, just randomly??
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Steenbon:
Mine S7, now with Oreo, also turns Always-on off it self. Maybe in connection with App updating or?. It has done that several times now.

Don't mix this problem up with Always-on turns off for power saving when screen is covered - in a pocket or face-down..

Hi all,

I used to have SofaScore on all my phones, it's a great app (for me the best app) to track every sport.

Since I got my new galaxy S7 I noticed the app has a strange behavior....

On my old Sony Z3 the app is perfect.. Super smooth but in the new Samsung flagship it's so laggy.

So I reported to SofaScore's DEV and the answer was:

" Hello ,

Thank you once again for your feedback.

We have just tested SofaScore app on new Samsung flagship, and yes performance is rather atrocious. But I must disappoint you, every other well established apps suffer from the same problem. We don't know what Samsung has done with their phone, but we ran some benchmarks. These are the graphs.

1. Samsung Galaxy S6 - Android 5.1.1

2. Samsung Galaxy S7 - Android 6.0.1

3. Google Nexus 5X - Android 6.0.1

Horizontal green line represents the normal usage. As you can see on the graphs - on our S6 with 5.1.1, everything is normal, app is fluid and no laggs or hiccups. On S7 on OTOH, we notice some heavy frame dropping and choppiness. We then ran test against the Nexus 5X on the same Android (6.0.1), and the results are similar to the S6.

Please note that this kind of behavior is happening on every other non-Samsung app we tried. We don't know what kind of magic tricks did Samsung do in their new phone. Our assumption is that they underclocked the GPU, and that the GPU struggles with most basic tasks such as app animations. Hopefully, they'll address that soon enough, to save it's customers from further struggle.

Hope you'll understand,

Best regards

Thomas "

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Eric24720:
Some Galaxy s7 possibly encryed

I'm having the same problem too! But I don't know how to address the problem to Samsung. However it's my CPU that's a bit underclocked because my CPU tells me it's a Quad core 1.59Ghz Qualcomm Technologies, Inc MSM8996. However in Qualcomm website it claims that the Snapdragon 820 (which is a MSM8996 model) can produce a 2.2Ghz proformance. But I not done yet! My ram specs tells me I have 3.4Gb of ram total! Which is strange because Samsung claims its 4Gb. That's 600Mb of missing ram. And I tell my self I can't be the only one. I realize when I watch speed comparison, the ram management are no different to the previous model (Galaxy s6) and this could be why. My theory is some Galaxy s7 came encrypt when they were shipped to the markets.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] davebugyi:
The CPU is not underclocked. It has 2 clusters - 2 cores performing at 1.59 and 2 at 2.2 Ghz - and usually it is the smaller cluster get's reported. Get a proper app like CPU-Z to see the real frequencies.

RAM is 4 GB and 3585 MB is reported available - why? Well, because ~512MB is reserved for the GPU as it does not have any dedicated VRAM - this is how it is done on all Android devices so far.

RAM management is just a little improved versus Galaxy S6 - Android 6.0.1, but it is miles better what was on the S6 -5.1.1

Encryption is not impacting the performance of the S7 - it was tested already in the forums, in some cases maybe by 2-3%.

---------- Post added at 08:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:15 AM ----------

This imakes no sense. The S7 uses the Adreno 530 (snapdragon) or the Mali-T880MP12 (exynos) GPUs which are pretty damn powerful GPUs - even compared to last year's GPU used in the S6.

Moreover, it is not underclocked and it is running at is intended 650 Mhz (Mali) most of the time. I mean there are intensive 3D apps and other similar apps to SofaScore which do not lag at all - so this has to be something with their app.

On the other hand, even if the GPU would be underclocked - it still should be able to render the graphics in such an app.

EDIT: Just tested SofaScore - and no issues at all.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] borgez:
Hi, yes the app come with a couple updates and there is no more issues . the problem no longer existed for some time
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Eric24720:
What is speed like in the Galaxy s7

The Galaxy s7 is powerful in GPU and CPU but android is very heavy and thus the Galaxy s7 has to push more power. The specs looks very promising but their always a ratio in terms of the OS (Andriod Marshmallow). Let me give you a real life example, I have a tank and it has a pretty powerful engine with a strong horse power, but the tanks weight is vast. The horse power to weight ratio would effect the tank and can really make it struggle. However since it does have a strong horse power it will make the tank move with a punch, but driving through tougher landscape like a hill would make the tank struggle since its vast. The crew from inside the tank would perceive the struggle of the tank and feel the weight of it. My point is implied this example to the Galaxy s7. Now don't get me wrong it's a powerful phone but when doing lots of multitasking it becomes a leisurely "like" phone.

i'm turning in my phone so I want to do a complete wipe. I flashed the stock rom. I flashed the stock recovery. I relocked the bootloader via ADB. But when I go to do a factory reset it says in the upper left corner when trying to do it that it was modified and won't proceed with the reset. Please help me try to reset it to stock before I return it. Thanks!

[T-Mobile LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YrrchSebor:
Hmm, i wasn't aware that it will still consider that the device has been modified, even after restoring everything and relocking the bootloader. But yeah, I guess if you unlock the bootloader again, it may factory reset again? Then yeah, relock and you should be good, especially if you are just turning the phone into a Tmo store.

[General Questions and Answers] __SMagnus__:
Basically what's in the topic. It's a Nexus 5 phone with the original Android OS (latest version 6.0.1), it's not and it's not locked to any particular carrier.

I was never asked to install that app , I wasn't even browsing Google Play Store today, neither from the phone, nor my computer that logged in to my Google account.

How is it even possible? Who installed that app on my phone without my consent? Frankly I wouldn't even care, but this app is basically taking your phonebook data, so it's kinda creeping me out that it's popped on my phone just like that.

NO,if you reactive the XposedManager module it would be down.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] pa.ko:
No XposedBT whit OBD.

Prob is that there are number of overlapping Xposed modules, conflicting with each other and even underlying ROM features.

Until Malaysk and module devs coordinate their activities you have to experiment and make compromises. In order to get something you have to drop something.

I had the same problem: my bluetooth OBD2 / OBD adapter were being detected, but I could not pair them. My OBD2 adapter has a pin number and I was never asked for the pin to pair. Also, the device was being scanned and shown with the phone icon instead of the OBD icon. Had this problem with March and January 2016 versions of Malaysk ROM (which is awesome, btw!). How I solved the problem:

1. Opened the stock bluetooth app, removed the device which already appeared paired

2. Set the default pairing PIN to the PIN of my device

3. Disabled XposedMTC and XposedBT in the Xposed module manager

4. Rebooted

5. Scanned for the device, checked that it appears as OBD (icon) and paired again. No pin was requested, but it paired correctly and it works.

Hope this helps! Cheers,

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] B3rt:
i had same problem but solved it.

Don't use the bluetooth menu in system settings but use the bluetooth app instead (which came with the rom (android 6)).

Using the bluetooth app search here and here pairing worked without any problems for me, after pairing it worked as normal again.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] pa.ko:
That worked for me. But found also additional tips are needed to check:

1. If adapter name is not OBDII per default then in BT app settings (last tab) set exact name. This option is available in modded BT apps in Malaysk ROM (4.4.4), dunno for other ROMs. So there is no need for any exposed modules, just change adapter name in app.

2. Adapter with correct name can pair even if pin code is incorrect! Looks like paired but will not work in apps. So check that pin code in BT app settings is correct for your adapter.

3. In Torque, if you had any other adapter used before, clean all app data (in Android app info). Also noticed that even after app data cleaning, old Mac address is shown instead of new one paired in BT app. Looks like MCU somehow wrongly saves and provides old, even removed from BT app, adapter Mac address. But new paired adapter is working. So there is some mess with MCU and BT and Torque... Not sure where is the issue, but noticed that latest Torque ver listed something about 'improved listing of BT devices'. So it may be known issue on Torque side....
