[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josue2297:
Hey guys;

I just got a Kocaso NovaOne phablet. I'd like to port a newer stock Android ROM to it. It's now on 4.4.2

I managed to root it but I don't understand how to make a custom recovery for it. It's a chinese phablet so there's no CWM, TWRP or Philz for it. Plus I don't even know how to port a ROM. I'm having a hard time and any help will be appreciated.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mylios101:
Hey guys! I've having some trouble getting my device set up with root and encryption, while ending with a locked bootloader. I hope I can find some help.

Here is the procedure I tried:

Unlocked the bootloader

Did a full restore to MHC19I through fastboot

Flashed this boot.img

( This is so I can encrypt the user data partition after getting into Android, and it also allows a system-root without getting a boot loop )

Flashed the twrp-3.0.0-1-angler.img recovery

Locked the bootloader

Booted into TWRP without ever going into Android yet

Sideloaded BETA-SuperSU-v2.68-20160228150503.zip

Booted into Android and setup with my Google account, I used a fingerprint and set a PIN, and selected "PIN required on startup"

Update all the stock apps, with some reboots in between

Then encrypted the phone through security settings

Now here is where I'm having trouble.

When I boot into TWRP after having encrypted the user data partition, it asks for my password, as it should, but it won't take my PIN. It tells me "Password failed, please try again" and "Failed to decrypt data." Is the password prompt not asking for the PIN I set? Does TWRP only support decryption with a password, or something? Can I not use a fingerprint to lock the device? What am I missing here?

Is there perhaps another procedure to getting Android setup with TWRP, root, and user data encryption while ending with a locked bootloader?

Thank you in advance for all your help!
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gorgtech:
You need a modified Twrp for this new Base. Just have a look around ;)
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mylios101:
Is the "twrp-3.0.0-1-angler.img" image here not the new modified TWRP for MHC19I?

edit: According to this post, I'm using the correct version of TWRP.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gorgtech:
Yes, this one should fit. I had the same problem before.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dieselbuddeh:
First: Why did you re-lock the bootloader? You cant flash any twrp updates or update with factory images.

Second: You should have just flashed supersu in twrp before any booting?

When clean installing I personally follow these:

fastboot flash bootloader

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot flash radio radio-angler-angler-02.50.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot erase cache

fastboot format userdata

fastboot flash cache cache.img

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash vendor vendor.img

fastboot flash recovery twrp

fastboot reboot-recovery

While in twrp I:

adb push supersu to /sdcard/

then flash supersu in recovery

then wipe dalvik/cache in twrp

finally let the phone boot and set up normally. Leaving bootloader unlocked
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mylios101:
You've had the same issue before that I'm having now? What was your fix?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gorgtech:
I've flashed system, boot and vendor before. Also updated the bootloader and the radio and was asked for a password which I could not get rid off. I had to sideload supersu and also flash a modified Twrp after. Now I can access the recovery like I was used to. It's the latest Base which causes trouble.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mylios101:
I lock the bootloader for obvious security reasons, but it leads to the user data partition being wiped, which prevents the partition from encrypting on initial Android setup.

I do flash Supersu through TWRP before my first boot to Android, otherwise TWRP gets wiped out.

I'll give your procedure a try! Thank you.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dieselbuddeh:
As far as i know with 6.0.1 with the stock boot.img it automatically encrypts on first boot, even with an unlocked bootloader.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mylios101:
No, I believe the problem is that it does not automatically encrypt on first boot when I lock the bootloader. My work around was using a modded boot.img so I can encrypt post-setup through the security settings menu, but I can't decrypt with TWRP. Without the boot.img and a locked bootloader, it sits in a bootloop and never encrypts. through the security settings option.

I have to confirm this, but it looks like the only way to get the device encrypted, rooted, and TWRP accessible is to not use the modded boot.img and leave the bootloader unlocked, which I'd rather not. Regardless, I'll give it a try and report back.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dieselbuddeh:
I was able to encrypt with the modified boot.img that supersu makes when you flash it over the one that comes with the factory image. Bootloader unlocked.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kunal_07:
How did you sideload supersu? I have the same problem as you
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamesn2k:
Fastboot format userdata in terminal.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mylios101:
I'm using the "adb sideload" function under "advanced" in TWRP. Another user suggested doing an "adb push" and then using the regular TWRP install instead. I'm going to try that and see what happens.

edit: sideloading vs pushing supersu made no difference. Android is still not encrypting the user data partition on first boot.

edit 2: After some testing, it looks like flashing the latest beta of Supersu is what is preventing Android from encrypting, which is obviously a problem. Without flashing Supersu, TWRP doesn't persist and I can't get root access.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kunal_07:
I was able to root using RC SuperSU 2.69 using chainfire auto root :)
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dontbeweakvato:
Easy solve.

1. Create 4 digit screen lock pin code when booted in rom settings>security

2. Use flashify to flash newest twrp

3. Boot into new twrp and use new pin code to decrypt data

When flashing new version of TWRP it automatically encrypt the data with "default_password" but if you try to use that as your password it will not work. If you create a pin, then use that pen to decrypt the password it will work. Then if you go back into your booted up rom and change the password to none TWRP will not ask you for a password.

Can't remember steps 1. And 2. Might be switched
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asj0422:
i just updated to the mch19i build via fastboot (since i'm rooted and can't take an ota apparently - has anyone made twrp-able zips for those updates yet?) and am having this same problem. what's different about this build that we need a different twrp for?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dontbeweakvato:
Well for one thing twrp 3.0.0.1 allows for vendor images to be flashed to the vendor partition. The previous ones you can't. That's why I updated with flashify. Two seconds of easiness. Just set a 4 digit lock screen pin before because twrp encrypts with unknown password upon first boot that's why you assign it one.

The only way for otas is to side load or fast boot flash.

Or. Run a custom ROM and get flashable zips for updates, these work great with all these Google update releases
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ayeeebroham:
Hi everyone, I hate to bring back an old post but I am new to XDA today so I'm getting used to it.

Well, I'm a first time ROM user, PureNexus + ElementalX kernal (amazing). But I had a question regarding this encryption and TWRP. I know older versions of TWRP had issues with entering the encryption password, I want to encrypt mine but I want to be sure that this issue has been fixed. I can't find anything online regarding it either. Can anyone help me out?

Device: Nexus 6P

ROM: PureNexus 7.1.2_r24

Kernal: ElementalX 5.03

TWRP: 3.1.1

Any information would be helpful! Before I encrypt! Just don't wanna do it then be stuck.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zwitterion:
Not sure what you are asking. If you've set a PIN, use it when promoted by TWRP.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ayeeebroham:
Just wondering because I was reading while back about people using encryption on their device but when TWRP booted up...it wouldn't accept their correct password...it would say incorrect :eek:
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zwitterion:
Right, so just disable security before making a Nandroid backup, so when you restore it, there is no issue.

Pin security when booting up TWRP works just fine

Got my pre ordered edge in Dubai from the Samsung store. Disappointed with the camera function, as it kept on giving an error, Warning Camera failed

Tried to wipe data and cache from application manager, rebooted into recovery, wiped cache, but still the same. At last formatting the phone to factory settings worked. Unfortunately the same again repeated after 2 days, when again had to factory reset. Very upsetting for a premium phone, as I've been a user of all Galaxy S series and the Note 4, but never faced this issue

Anyone who has faced a similar issue? What is the solution?

Its not the SD card as us with Dual Sims are not using a card, apparently it's to do with playstore, usually just by resting settings resolves the issue but you can clear camera cache too

Hi. I have had this issue also. The fix for now is to turn off Smart Stay and reboot your phone. Samsung know about the issue and are working on a fix for it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] BlameUREdiction:
I had the same issue. Didn't know it was smart stay. Did a factory reset and disabled Skype since I thought it was the cause as the camera stopped working immediately after Skype force closed. Good to know though! We'll get a fix soon enough. Samsung said they'd had numerous calls/complaints.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] mccorma:
switching off smart stay worked for me - in selfie mode camera worked but minute tried turn it round i got the error. and then it was frozen and couldn't switch it back.

annoyed as this is a pretty fundamental thing to be tested on a hand set - especially as the camera changes are one of the improvements advertised for the phone
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] nobnut:
I was getting really hacked off with my camera constantly crashing. I tried all of the tips and tricks I and everyone else suggested (Smart Stay/SD card/wiping cache/factory resetting/blah), none of them worked.

In the end before I decided I was going to ditch the phone, I flashed firmware for my region (BL, AP, CP and CSC), along with a full wipe and I haven't had a problem in 4 days now.

I'm very happy.

So, the general thread about the beta is a real mess, so here's one who will talks ONLY about the backup.

Only the people who have been selected as beta tester are supposed to reply in this thread, other don't have anything to do here!

Here's how to backup the firmware for us:

If you haven't already installed the beta BUT have been selected, do a backup of your TA partition: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2292598

If you have already installed the beta, you can still backup your TA partition but you will have to flash an old Lollipop ftf first, root your device and then backup the TA.

Once done you can unroot and wait Marshmallow OTA who will come back ;)

If something isn't clear or if you need help for any parts, just ask ;)

Ok, if it contains also 264 baseband and you flashed 264 bootloader, then is all good to go... There is sometimes problem with Custom ROMs that they DO NOT include bootloader, that must be flashed separately in Flashtool, and sometimes they do not include baseband, or include other baseband (older one usually). Not sure if it is the case here also, just for sure repeating that you MUST have latest bootloader and baseband.

Bizarre issue. It seems that lately my first phone call from my 2015 CRV results in louder than normal ringing and static-y voice noise from the person on the other end. I have to hang up, redial, and then it is fine. It happens with every first call I make or receive when connecting to bluetooth in the car.

I went back to Lollipop 5.1.1 and low and behold there is no issue. I took my girlfriends Galaxy S4 and paired it with my car and there was no issue at all.

I'm unable to find my Chromecast (2nd gen) using Quick Connect. Quick Connect does find several Sonos speakers and a neighbor's TV (which is not very helpful since I don't know the neighbor :o)... I've understood from several articles elsewhere on the net that Quick Connect on the S6 could connect to Chromecast. Is there some setting that I'm perhaps not seeing that I need to toggle (the S7 Edge is my first Samsung phone)? I've tried reconfiguring the Chromecast on my 2.4 and 5 ghz networks, with the phone connected to the appropriate network each time, to no avail. I'd rather be able to cast the screen quickly via Quick Connect than use the Chromecast app. Connections via the Chromecast app are also unreliable by the way.. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Because casting via the Chromecast app requires extra clicks. Open Chromecast app, open hamburger menu, click Cast screen, click Connect to Chromecast.

Not working with Marshmallow

I have a Galaxy S6 and until yesterday it was running Android 5.1.1. Now it's running 6.0.1. Before the update Quick Connect worked with my Chromecast (2nd Generation) perfectly. Now it does not recognize it.

I assume your S7 is running 6.0.1 as well.

Fortunately, there is an easy enough alternative. ES File Explorer has a Chromecast add-on that you can choose to add the first time you attempt to cast. It works very well.
