Sorry for quick instructions but these should help you.

Enter fastboot (Hold volume down, press power to turn on). Flash TWRP.

Reboot holding down both volume up and volume down, enter TWRP.

Do a factory reset within TWRP. Now mount storage to your computer and copy the "Custom ROM starter template" zip from http://www.modaco.com/forums/topic/377002-r3-custom-rom-starter-template-honor-5x-kiw-l21-b130/ as this is a full, untouched stock ROM ready for flashing with TWRP.

Download stock recovery image from https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24421527759890493 and copy it to your 5x device.

Now first flash the ROM you downloaded. Once this has been installed, click Install in TWRP again then click the button bottom right to switch to image. Click the stock recovery image you copied to your 5x then select 'recovery'. Once you have flashed the recovery, exit TWRP and select reboot system.

The phone will boot into EMUI as normal. Quickly go through setup skipping everything then open Settings and do a full factory reset & wipe internal storage. This will take your 5x fully back to stock.

Hi there,

I have a KIW-L21 and tried to go back to stock rom using this method.

I already had TWRP so I skipped that step, I downloaded the rom and stock recovery from the links you mentioned.

I couldn't find factory restore in TWRP however I wiped everything (except for the external SD)

Once i flashed the rom then recovery i rebooted the phone however after showing the honor + android logo, the phone is stuck on the colour changing honor logo but wont go any further.

I have booted in recovery more (emui) and tried to do a factory reset from there but after 14% of formatting data I get an error "Data and cache format failed" and the only option I have after is "shutdown system now".

I can't even reflash TWRP to restore from a backup as I can't enable USB debugging on the phone.

Can anyone help please?

*FIXED!* although I couldn't go past the bootlogo, I extracted update.app and put it in dload folder on my externat SD and rebooted phone while holding power, volume up + volume down. It updated and booted back to stock firmware :)... Happy person again!

HI all,

I have Galaxy S7 Edge G935F, Installed TWRP and Rooted with SuperSU, I need the fix for Externel SD card writable permission fix works with Marshmallow ? Because of I use Titanium Backup which folder located in my sd card, But Error is "Folder not writable"

Thanks :good:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] danw84:
You don't need it. In TitaniumBackup, when you're in the "Backup folder location" menu, click on "Storage provider" (just above "Detect") and select "DocumentProdivder Storage".

Then, you need to select the root folder of your SD Card.

You can now use any folder on your SD as backup...

Not everyone on this thread has been able to grant permissions

I used to successfully grant permissions by selecting the SD Card on my S5 running marshmallow, but on my Galaxy S7 Edge the SD card simply doesn't show up during the permissions procedure (and yes, I did select "show SD card").

I'm really keen to avoid rooting this phone, as I want to use the payment options, and to keep my warranty.

The "My Files" app that comes with the phone has access to the SD, but that app can't copy from the network. So using ES Explorer I can copy small network files locally first, then move them to the external SD card later. Due to this permissions bug, I do not have any option for copying larger network files! So annoying..

I've also tried other advanced file explorer apps.. and see exactly the same problem, which perhaps tells us it's an OS issue..?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Anik49:
Download fx file explore from play store ,from app menu choose enable write access. Now select 3dot menu from right side upper corner. Select show your card option now select SD card and choose the right symbol on the bottom.Now you can move any file to your SD card.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] mathius:
Thanks for the help - I did just as you said, but unfortunately the result is the same. When I click to "Show SD Card", I cannot see anything, "Recent" is also empty. Thing is - this did used to work, with the same phone. I'm starting to think that the only fix is to factory reset the phone.. :(
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Anik49:
see the screenshot, if sdcard not showing just select show sd card from 3 dot menu.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] mathius:
Hi - yep that's my problem, nothing shows after hitting "show SD card" - that's what I've been trying to describe. It's the same process for all the third party apps - but nothing shows on my S7 Edge

Try using the option at the bottom, not the Document Storage Provider.

I have always used Filesystem Storage - Media, then created a new folder called My Titanium Backups, then select this folder.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] phone_lover:
All,

I am also facing this issue, but in Titanium Backup only.

I am able to create/delete modify files on the ext SD using ES File Ex.

However, I cannot do it with Titanium Backup even after I select Document Storage option. I am able to create the folder within TiBa for backup location, but TiBa is not able to backup files to the SD card (operation fails).

Please help as i need this desperately.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] RBEmerson:
Andy 4.4.2, stock ROM, rooted - once upon a time, the com.karamidas.TitaniumBackup folder worked like a charm - backup's written regularly. Now no backups. The media_rw (SDFix) change is still in the permissions file as it should be. Rebooting leaves TB thinking it can write to com... I tested this by trying to choose a new backup location, choosing the existing one, and not getting the unwritable warning. But try to run a backup and... not writable again.

The one thing that's new with the phone is I changed to a new gmail account (mine to my wife's). I had to buy the Pro key again (not complaining). TB should be working as usual. What's happening?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Idan73:
For those with root, there's xposed module xInternalSd for marshmallow. Previous lollipop apps that modified permissions, don't work anymore.

For those without root, use document storage, for apps that have implemented it properly. Titanium backup is not one of those lol.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrxano:
hi guys i have an issue with my device (i9500) since i had a bad efs partition which i successfully restored from a backup.

The device works perfectly, but as soon as you lock it, and wait a few seconds, you can't unlock it anymore. Screen stays black, and the only way to get it started again is by removing the battery. Then it keeps on working perfectly, apps, games, everything is fine, as long as you don't lock it (by pressing powerbutton or auto lock)

Either then it crashes or restarts.

Things i've done already:

- Soft reset

- Hard reset + cache wiped

- tried many different roms

- fresh stock rom installed with Odin.

Problem still persists.

Which custom kernel are you using?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ReapinDevil:
I'm using Pure Nexus with Kylo
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DJBhardwaj:
Which version of Kylo? Are you overclocking the frequency?

I prefer franco or elementalX with Pure Nexus. They both work out to be a great combo with the ROM.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ReapinDevil:
I'm using Kylo R9M.And I'm using DarkSpice 7.5 governor profile.So I should be using elemental x with pure Nexus?

Which are the ROMs which goes well with Kylo?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
No, you don't need to use Elemental with Pure Nexus, Kylo is fine. There is no right or wrong combination, it comes down to personal preference. You need to use BetterBatteryStats to find out what's causing your battery drain.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DJBhardwaj:
You do not need to change the kernel. Kylo is good too, i was just referring to my own preference.Try switching governor profiles.

Also, make use of BetterBatteryStats app. It is paid, but surely worth buying. Will help you get a much detailed look on what's happening to the battery.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ReapinDevil:
Which page of BetterBatteryStats should I take a screenshot? Only these two screenshots show some data.Rest the app says "no stats has been collected".And i have been using this app for approximately 2 days now.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
Did you reboot your phone after installing it? You need to do that for it to work properly.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ReapinDevil:
Yes I did reboot once.But I did download the app and installed it.Did not buy the app because I do not have access to a credit card as of now.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
So you're using a pirated copy?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ReapinDevil:
Yes.Is there a similar free version of the same app?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
He provides a free version to the XDA community here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1179809

So instead of stealing it you can have it legitimately. I'm going to leave this conversation now though, piracy is a huge no-no here on XDA, and on a personal level I find it quite disgraceful to steal from developers, especially small ones like Sven. Not having access to a credit card isn't an excuse to steal from someone. I wish you luck in fixing your problem.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ReapinDevil:
I'm sorry for installing the previous app.From now on,I'll try to buy the legitimate version.I have installed the free version and I'll upload the new screenshots after using it for a day or so.

4hrs SOT is not bad, all depends of how and where you're using your phone. When I'm at work (UK's village) I'm getting even less than 4hrs (bad or no signal), but at home, with dimmed display and good signal I manage to get more than 6hrs. As soon as your phone goes to sleep, there's nothing to be worry about.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HueleSnaiL:
I think it might be one of two things, either an app with a rogue code that's causing your phone to stay awake and eating cpu cycles or something misconfigured in the kernel. You can either start deleting some apps that you may think are the cause of the problem or try flashing the stock kernel to see if that solves the issue. I'm running PureNexus with stock kernel and my phone loses less than 1% battery/h if I don't touch the phone at all.

Try tapping on 'Memory used by apps' on that memory settings screen, should let you know what the culprit is
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Masteryates:
Firstly, you need to face the fact that 2GB was a bad decision by Google for this tablet. There is nothing that we can ever do about that. :crying:

If you want to stay on stock, Chrome is the main culprit in consuming Ram. Switching to Habit Browser makes things better as well as changing your DPI to 288. Do a search on XDA regarding this. Whilst it improved things, it was still not enough for me. :rolleyes:

I snapped a week ago and have now rooted and flashed CM13 and stuck with Habit. I've been using a few days now, and for the first time, I can keep my 3 Fantasy Premier League Tabs open, (they are huge,) without constant refreshes, redraws and lag. :victory: Right now, I feel for the first time, I'm getting what I paid for and the Nexus Experience. The only bug so far, is that always listening doesn't work.

If you've just bought this tablet, I'd consider returning it if you are not prepared to root. The performance will never be acceptable on stock. :eek:
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doitright:
Clearing dalvik cache will do precisely ONE thing and ONLY one thing; make it take a long time to boot next time as it regenerates it.

Ignore the amount of available memory. People who are concerned about the amount of free memory are trying to apply bad mswindows knowledge to Android. Totally different and no comparison. UNUSED MEMORY IS WASTED MEMORY!!!

So here is how memory management works in Android; it *preloads* everything that it thinks you are most likely to actually use, so that when you DO use it, it is more likely already loaded and starts up very quickly. If you are switching to something that is NOT already loaded, then it just needs to dump lower priority programs out of memory, which basically only takes a few nanoseconds (billionths of a second). So that is NOT it.

If your device is acting slowly, then you need to figure out what the actual cause is. Trace the CPU utilization with something like the "top" command (the one with busybox is a lot nicer than the one that comes with Android) while you are experiencing slowdown. You can also look to see if there is excessive I/O happening (i.e. read/write to the internal storage), and of course, some software will require a network exchange before it will start up -- nothing you can do about network lags.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arminvm:
Thanks. I am still on the official rom, I probably should switch.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arminvm:
I have done it several times. As I said, I really have not so many apps and just the very common google apps are installed.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arminvm:
Thanks for your reply. Yeah, most of the times, the slow down happens while I am in chrome and browsing..it actually is not snappy at all in internet browsing...however, I remember it was back in the days that I had bought it.

No, I have this Nexus 9 since last May I think, but have not yet found the time to root it and flash a custom kernel and rom . Anywyas, I have done it previously for my other devices, so not that much rookie in it. Probably will give it a try,
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arminvm:
Thanks for your kind reply and explanation.

I think that is exactly the problem as even sometimes switching between the apps that I have just opened is also so slow and the nexus lags badly....Yes, I am aware of the network lags, but the problem I was talking about does not have anything to do with it...I will try the command you said, but can I run it on stock rom? I have not yet rooted my nexus nor flashed a custom rom.

Thanks
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Masteryates:
You can do some investigation by watching the processes and seeing which are taking the CPU and memory on stock. The problem is, when you find out, there isn't much you can do about it.

Its quicker and easier to just install a custom rom where this type of work has already been done for you. :victory:
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimmyschmidt:
Lately, I've discovered that loading Chrome immediately raises my CPU temp by 30+ degrees. Sometimes that's enough to make things run really slow
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arminvm:
Yeah, I agree...I will try to fimd sometime amd go over flashing a custom rom. ??
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arminvm:
Yes! I habe noticed that these slow downs mostly happen when I am browsing in Chrome...
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doitright:
Web browsers are DEFINITELY a source of slowdowns.

The problem, more often than not, is actually *javascript* that is written by MORONS. Even on a desktop machine, you can watch the web browser for CPU and RAM utilization, and it just grows and grows and grows until you finally kill the process and start a new one.

What this may come down to is actually quite simple; the CPU in the Nexus 9 is actually more suitable for use as a stovetop than an actual CPU. These things get way too hot way too fast. If you beat on them with a web browser, they'll get hot and throttle down to low/verylow frequency, which will make them generally unresponsive. So if that is what is happening to you, there really end up being a few options to deal with it;

1) disable javascript in the browser,

2) don't use the browser,

3) improve the ability to disperse heat from the CPU.

For #3, you may note that when it gets hot, it is pretty localized to the corner of the device up near the power button. An easy solution to distribute heat better might be something simple, like adding a layer of copper foil to the inside of the back cover. The thicker the copper foil the better. Copper is very good at conducting heat, so this would spread the heat around over the entire area covered by that foil. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Copper-Foil...nductive-Adhesive-Ship-from-USA-/162018486132
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] astralbee:
I also found chrome was slow starting up, switching tabs etc. Found that logging out of my Google account in chrome improved this. Seems that synching tabs etc triggers the pause. This might be an acceptable workaround for some but I appreciate it isn't a great fix if you want to use that feature. Actually I'm not bothered as I think Google know too much anyway. �� But the underlying problem is this tablet... I don't have this problem on my phone.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arminvm:
Yeah, they do get hot...and the browser is the problem, I agree...however, I think they are not the main reason...there is something wrong with low memory or maybe some apps...
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arminvm:
Haha, I agree...google already knows a lot!..thanks
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doitright:
I don't agree with that.

We use our N9's *all of the time*, and there is never any perceptible slowdown. Possibly with the exception of straining them with web browsers, but web browsers are... poopy... on EVERY platform and device, so that doesn't really stand out. Typically just minimize the use of web browsers and all is well.

Web browsers were good in 1996 when they were simple things to display an html website. Since then, they've added all kinds of useless crap to them that bloat them out, hog up tons of memory, and just generally make them into a useless waste of space.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arminvm:
I know..but everyone knows that N9 should be faster!...
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arminvm:
Update:

I think I have kind of find the problem of low speed of my Nexus 9...I uninstalled an app that was for weather prediction and from that time on my Nexus 9 is very fast and responsive...No problem so far. I also uninstalled some other apps alogaide that which I was never using them,so I am not sure if the weather app was exactly the reason of the slow downs...but the other apps where just some games or some simple apps....well, I hope this information helps!
