[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PiousInquisitor:
Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner, Ive been out of the office (and coverage) all day. Flashing the full OTA should be like flashing the factory images. It will wipe out whatever is on those partitions and allow it to succeed. Good luck and let us know if it works.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] musicmagic:
TL:dr first; Got the dreaded red and blues, is there anyway to recover while keeping my data?

I was messing around in the hidden menu, selected the first option (HW test), it restarted, and now I get a secure boot error. I can access Twrp, and USB download mode. Just now made a full backup in Twrp, and copied the internal storage. To the best of my knowledge, I can't backup my texts from here, nor my Spotify library. Is there any way I can recover from this without loosing my data? (D855, 32 GB, just in case that'll help)

After looking at a few threads, it looks like a simple reflash of the kernel/boot.IMG will fix it. Am I correct?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] jrwingate6:
I was just wondering if anyone else has had this issue. I've tried everything from deleting app data to a factory reset.

I am still not getting any notifications for Facebook. The only type of notifications I am getting is the Icon Badge.

Yes I have notifications turned on for Facebook.

My S7E seems to be automatically clearing my Facebook notifications (plus some other notifications too). I have no idea why it is doing this.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] jrwingate6:
How do you know it's doing this? Can you see the notifications pop up for a split second?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] CuBz90:
Well first I kept hearing my notification sound and when checking had no notifications. But then while using the phone I noticed notifications pop up for a second and instantly dissapear.

This phone seems to have a mind of it's own as some of my settings are turning themselves on and off.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] jrwingate6:
It's definitely something odd going on.

When you responded to this post, I got the Tapatalk notification instantly however my Gmail isn't updating on it's own all of the time which means the push notifications don't come across. I have to do a manual refresh in the Gmail app. With Facebook, I am getting the badge icon instantly but I am getting no sound or banner notifications with the phone on or at idle.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Sk17z0:
I normally don't use the app. I'm not a big FB fan but the app is working fine for me. I only use FB for a few mobile games. But I'm getting notifications without any issues.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] jrwingate6:
I seem to have fixed my Facebook notifications or at least I think I did. So far it has worked with a few test posts I made.

For some reason, I think this has to do with migrating to the iPhone and then switching back.

Anyhow, I downloaded and synced Facebook with my old Nexus 7 that we keep around to keep our 3 year old daughter entertained with when we go to restaurants.

What happened is kind of strange. I started getting notifications on my S7 instantly but now I am not getting the notifications on the Nexus 7. Anyone else find this odd?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] t12icky0:
i have kinda the same thing. it give me notifications but only on the app widget. it shows the number of notifications but not a notification in the bar on top. i have to keep the facebook app on my main screen so when i turn it on it shows if i have any notifications in the app. it has bugged me like crazy.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] jrwingate6:
I don't even have the option to put the Facebook widget on my homescreen. Where did you find the widget?

Also, it sounds like you are having the same issues I was. I had the facebook icon sitting on my home screen and it would show the icon badge for how many notifications I had but I wasn't getting the notification banners at the top.

I don't understand how syncing Facebook with a old Nexus 7 cleared this issue up but so far the notifications on my S7 seem to be working.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Deltatristar500:
I've had no push notifications for about a year and a half on my HTC One M7, and still the same issue now on the S7 Edge, however I do get the widget notifications at least. I have checked all my Facebook settings and all notifications are enabled. Dont know why I just stopped getting push notification. Wonder if its something on my Facebook account.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] spectrumfox:
I am not getting any Facebook notifications either. I migrated from an iPhone 6S and I'm wondering if that has something to do with it.

Not sure how I would go about fixing it though.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] CuBz90:
I have never owned an iPhone so it's not that for me
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] t12icky0:
I just had the Facebook icon from the app drawer on my homescreen.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] jrwingate6:
That's what I am thinking. Do you have another device laying around like a tablet or another phone? If so, try loading your Facebook account on it. If you don't then maybe you could try a friends phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] spectrumfox:
I have a backup Galaxy S5 that I could try it on. I'll see if I have some time this week to experiment.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] iRED7i:
Might be worth logging into your Facebook on the desktop version and going into settings, Notifications, Mobile and seeing if something has been disabled in here.

I wasn't getting Facebook notifications on the Messenger app, just the badge and icon. Took me ages to finally find out that somehow that at option was disabled when I logged into the app on my S7. Not done this on any other phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] t12icky0:
Not sure what happened but I'm getting notifications now.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] jrwingate6:
Yea. Mine have been off and on since yesterday. Actually, all of my notifications have been off and on since I got the phone on Saturday.

Hello Ma'am/Sir,

I'm having problems whenever I turn back my Android One G1 from CM to any STOCK ROMS, I'm not having problems during flashing any STOCK ROMS, It will successfully flash the zip file, but when I reboot my phone, the Boot Animation will show, then a few minutes later it will "hang" then it will reboot again then the boot animation will show again then it will "hang" again and again and again .. what could be the problem ? please someone help me ..
[Android One (Second-Generation) General] arvinquilao:
You didn't mention whether or not you did a factory reset too (wipe data and cache), that's a must if you are switching ROMs.
[Android One (Second-Generation) General] JanCandia:
I did too, that is a given step in every roms anyway .. :)
[Android One (Second-Generation) General] nhmanas:
which stock rom did you flashed can you send a link?

You know you're still out of warranty and you can't get updates even if you flash a custom rom in TWRP. You have to use fastboot way to get it again

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Etheralrealm:
I have had my gs3 fixed before with the sdcard bootloader file but i cant get it to work this time. dose anyone know how to un brick a galaxy s3 I535 without jtag. i can not get into recovery, the phone will buzz when the sdcard with the bootloader is inserted, but it will not do anything else. windows dose not recognize it. please help i really dont want to send my phone out to a jtag service.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TaureanZen:
Follow the steps listed here http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/31550/I535VRUDNE1_I535VZWDNE1_VZW/ and if this it is not the rom for your phone you can search it here http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/

If it is bricked will never go into recovery , you will only be able to go in flash mode , the one listed in the step list. It is valid to all android phones , once the phone does not boot or gives random flashes on screen and etc and even won't turn off, you must press the buttons in the order to flash.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] RaptorGuy:
Hey guys,

Can anyone tell me where the cheapest place to have a ribbon cable replacement is?

My 8525 is out of warranty, and I cant afford too much to buy another phone, it's getting quite rediculous.

Thanks
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] analytic:
well not sure how much it will cost you to replace the ribbon but I have seen 8125 and 8525 very cheap. now depending on what your budget is might be worth spending the extra $$ or upgrade your current phone so you can get warrant.

I dont have any extra 8525 but I do have 2 8125.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] TaurusBullba R.I.P.:
Why do you think it's out of warranty? 8525's were released last Novermber (less than a year ago). So, as long as it hasn't been physically tampered with or damaged, you can just call up AT&T and have it replaced. That is, as long as you're an AT&T customer. :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] RaptorGuy:
Repair / where?

Thats the thing.

I bought the phone on eBay, it was only two weeks old, when I bought it.

I had it unlocked to work with Centennial Wireless, and ATT / Cingular said they cant do anything about it.

It is too late for me to get a SquareTrade warranty to have it replaced.

Too bad no-one around here had a broken one to sell cheap for parts.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] TaurusBullba R.I.P.:
Ahh gotcha. Have you tried reseating the ribbon cable yourself?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] debonairone:
:)

I could be wrong, but can't you contact HTC since the phone is less than a year old...? It can still be replaced under the manufacturer's warranty...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] RaptorGuy:
8525

I tried reseating the cable myself, but it needs a new one.

Parts are too expensive for these phones.

LOCKED BOOTLOADER FOLKS PEOPLE ARE RUNNING FROM THE S7 FAST AS THEY GOT IT ..... MAJOR LET DOWN.

OF COURSE THATS ONLY ON THE DEVELOPMENT SIDE FOR THOSE THAT EAT SLEEP AND **** Xda and rooting and modz and tweaks roms etc. .. Its not woth the debate!

The simple truth is that this discussion asking hoping wishing for what was flushed down the drain will never come true .This is a sign of the times. The whole s7 xda forum should be revoked. All you can do is use the device and its capabilities in a stock manor or stock it back on T-Mobile shelves.

Its a bummer but not my bummer anymore ....I returned mine for a 742$ cash refund.And plan to move far away from Samsung devices.

Nexus is the next hope.Maybe htc if they can get the camera quality together.

Id suggest for the Die hard users to rally up and ditch it !

Someone higher up will get a clue when they see 1000s of new phone's sent back as refurbs within the first 2 weeks.

This is a small thing, but it's driving me crazy and I haven't been able to find anything to fix it- there's a small line of text on the bottom of the lockscreen that says "Swipe to Unlock." Can I get rid of it?

On my Galaxy S5/4/2 there was a box in the settings that said something like "show help text on lockscreen" that you could uncheck and make it go away. I can't seem to find anything in the settings, have tried applying a different unlocking method (pattern vs. just swipe). Please help? I have the Sprint variant, if that makes a difference.

Hello guys! I am following you since yesterday morning when I wake up because my HTC Desire 320 was in a continous vibration restarting again and again every 10 seconds. Only the Android logo appears for a few secs and new restart and so on. I looked around a liitle, downloaded all the tools including Sp flash tools, preloader drivers for Windows 7, MT6582 scatter and so on. The phone was never rooted, is unlocked. I tried with Sp flash tools unsuccesful, the write process fails I guess because connecting and disconnectiong from usb even with the battery removed. Can't access recovery mode with volume down and power button and battery inside, same event appears. What is the next step? Thank you

[OnePlus X General] CertifiedBlyndGuy:
Great guide. Going to the Tor recommendation however... It's a bit sketchy as lately people have been implanting malicious code. I personally recommend shadowsocks. It isn't a VPN but rather a Proxy. It uses socks5 which is the latest and greatest in terms of encryption algorithms. If it doesn't suit your needs then look at OpenVPN

And in place of cCleaner, I recommend SD Maid Pro as it can clean system databases and applications so long as you have root.

Another Xposed module to check out is XinternalSD as you can force apps to use external storage

X-plore is great, but look at Solid Explorer as well. It's really great.
[OnePlus X General] chinmai560621:
More than the solid exp, x-plore can be used with very much ease. And thank you for shadowsocks. I will try and come up. Until wikileaks use tor, itll be safe :D :P .XinternalSD, it doesn't matter much I feel, I know that already.

I am seriously considering your advice.
[OnePlus X General] icharlesi:
I got 69k but that's irrelevant anyways, the phone perform wells and its fast in general. if i setup my phone to last longer it wont get 69k of course, as i said still its fast so numbers not realy important. :)

Enviado desde mi ONE E1003 mediante Tapatalk
[OnePlus X General] chinmai560621:
Look, the phone wont run the whole day if you run heavy games. That's for any kernel, because the battery has only a capacity of 2525mAh. youll get an sot of abt 5-6 hrs without games. with undervolting, 4% charge goes every fifa game. So, the you cant use the phone with heavy gaming the whole day but 2-4 hrs. If you have mobile data and wifi running, andplay no games you can get it upp to 5-6 hrs yeah.
[OnePlus X General] chinmai560621:
yeah, obviously nos. arent important. If you use a h2os and the settings i told, youll like get 70k or even more. I like OOs more than h2os. so yeah...:)

[OnePlus X General] winesh:
I doubt installing YouTube background player to put my phone among the top devices.

The most tips are common around xda users. The other tips are just spamming software. You should've just shared your boefla profile in the boefla sharing thread. In this way you also would have contributed in the development of boefla.
[OnePlus X General] chinmai560621:
Top devices didn't mean benchmark and performance. It meant the overall benefit of the device... And yes, I will post my profile to that thread.

Sure those mods have helped you score 65k, when normally you should have got only 50k.

Regarding cCleaner, its a nice free and lite app for managing phone apps and viewing system info too - nothing wrong having it installed.

Just picked up this phone and am loving it so far, however I cannot get Audio Effects to work through my bluetooth headphones, or bluetooth headunit. With my Nexus 6 I was able to change the settings and hear a noticeable difference in audio quality. With this phone nothing changes. Also within Spotify, everything sounds the same whether it be on Normal Quality, or Extreme. Again, toggling these options within my Nexus 6 made a huge sound difference. This Moto X Pure sounds like garbage. Any ideas before I return it? Thanks!

[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaysus145:
I can get Audio Effects to work over Bluetooth... but the difference is so minimal I am not so sure it is worth the effort. In the car, I have resorted to adjusting the headunit EQ - which is fine if listening to an album, but it gets messy on playlists. At home I have resorted to using a different device to stream music over bluetooth.

I am not rooting this phone at this time., so viper mod is out for me. I wonder if a third party EQ app would help? It really is annoying to me.... but that is all it is, an annoyance (not a dealbreaker)

Has anyone been able to successfully install and use either GameSome or Hyperspin on the Nvidia Shield TV on Marshmalloe? I followed directions for Gamesome to the T, using the new beta version but every time I load the app it says merging data, and my storage/0/gamesome folder disappears every single time. I don't think I'm doing something right and I messed with it for hourd last night. I'm not gonna put anymore time into it, until I verify that either one can be run on the new MM update. These frontends are awesome, if I could get them to work. Has anyone had better luck than I?

Sent from my Sammy S6 using Revolution 1.0
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nomat2002:
Same happens here, soon as app loss it migrates that folder to some place. Not sure if it's a beta issue or what. I can't get it to run on marshmallow.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] honosuseri:
I've had no success with Gamesome, even switching to the 2.0 beta he is working on. I do know the dev has bought a SHIELD TV so in time things will improve we hope. I've heard people are using "Arc Browser" instead which is similar to Gamesome.

I do have an extensive Hyperspin setup (68 systems iirc) on my HTPC. I'm playing with the android version for my SHIELD TV, with a 500GB USB HDD connected as adopted storage. I have several of what I call the classic consoles (Nes,Snes,MD,32X etc.) working. They have artwork, videos playing and they launch the game almost instantly with Retroarch.

My advice would be to ensure you can play the games on the emulator first then worry about Hyperspin. The .ini files I downloaded from the guide on their website DID need editing. The ROM path proved to be the biggest hic-cup, it was very fussy over how it was set. I'll provide a few lines from my snes setup as an example to help you out. Obviously you'll need to adapt it for different systems...

rompath=/storage/emulated/0/Hyperspin/Emulators/Super Nintendo Entertainment System/roms/

nothing special on both we have 4G, updates maybe soon we get Marshmallow and the best in this list by specs is H959 because they have 3GB Ram & 32 internal storage, H955 only have 2GB of RAM and 16/32 internal storage (market depending)...F510 i dont have sure but is the same of H959 but Korean model, nothing more!

F510 from what i see have 2 variations: 2/3GB RAm and 16/32 internal storage.

H959 with 2/3GB RAM and only 32 internal.

search well what you want...there all the same, all have Snapdragon 810, all have 4G, are exactly the same specs, only differences is the RAM and internal storage.

IMHO, it's all depend on where are you using the phone. There are many different variants even the same model #. And only US AT&T H950 have 3 GB RAM. My H959 which I got is TWN variant and 32 GB 2 GB using in US TMO. So only getting H+ no 4G LTE which I mainly using WiFi. I chose this model because I don't want the hassle of AT&T getting the firmware updates and I want the Flamingo Red. Rooting and KDZ back to stock is easy for this variant.
