[X Style (Pure) General] WelcomeToTheSkye:
So today i have finally broke my phone :( I am currently phoneless until my replacement screen comes in so i will be going phoneless from here until atleast 4/20!! So i would like to describe what happened. Usually this phone is a tank and i can drop it 1 million times without it breaking until today happened. I was already having a really bad day i woke up late in the morning and almost missed my bus. i went to school looking like trash and then i end up going through the whole day with a really bad headache. I had to deal with a horrible mat teacher who gave me a (no joke) 66.60 for the marking period. half the class failed. So whatever i dealt with her then i went through my day until i was in my last period class. i was wearing gym shorts today so my pockets were really loose and i had my phone in my right pocket. I was sitting in a chair that was 2 feet off the ground and BAM my phone smashes into the floor. At this point I'm like "oh crap its done" so i flip it over and there was only a tiny crack in the top left hand corner so im like oh okay no biggy I can deal with that. That wasn't the worst of it. The screen powered on perfectly fine nothing looked wrong however only one half of the touch screen worked. Touching the screen anywhere under the power button wouldn't work. Running a DPI of 420 puts 2 essential things right in that exact area (dpi wont matter for the second thing) 1. My lock password is toast so i cant unlock my phone 2. even if i could unlock my phone (some cases i was able to unlock my phone but it works for 5 seconds then stops) the nav bar lives in that zone so im screwed. I just find it funny how a tiny drop can be so fatal and disable half a screen while i drop my phone daily from many different heights and thee wort it got was a scratch. I'm curious what are your drop stories?????

PS. if you don't see me participate in the threads I usually stalk its because I prefer to browse and post to XDA from XDA Labs. The website sucks.

I have repaired my phone and ordered the black dualpro or whatever its called case by insipio I ended up getting it for $25 should be here in a few days the company who ships it is very reliable

[X Style (Pure) General] planedoc:
Same thing happened to me. But replacing the screen on these is really easy, provided you get the screen/digitizer and frame assembly. Ijust did mine last week. Now i wont take off the case again. I have never cracked a screen until this phone. But up and going again.
[X Style (Pure) General] WelcomeToTheSkye:
Yeah i noticed how easy it is! i should be getting my replacement display (with frame) and phone tools anywhwere between now and may 1st
[X Style (Pure) General] ar.rayan:
Can you link from where u ordered your screen ?
[X Style (Pure) General] Jay794:
Simple lesson: keep it in a case
[X Style (Pure) General] MrMeeseeks:
Maybe if you just got black or something. Some of us customized them in Moto maker or skinned them. It would be useless to cover it up and I don't like the clear cases. Sure you have to be careful but you really should even with a case. The thing is accidents happen and a case isn't a guarantee that the phone won't break anyways.
[X Style (Pure) General] SpasilliumNexus:
If only they weren't so ugly for this phone. Good thing I take care of my stuff...

[MENTION=7009886]WelcomeToTheSkye[/MENTION] Sorry to hear about your phone. And your class. I was so scared I was gonna drop my MXP until I got a case. I was expecting the rubber on the back to be grippy but mine is slippery compared to my old moto E and the metal makes it worse. If you'd like a case recommendation, I have the Diztronic case and the Incipio Octane. They're both good. The octane looks better because it lets you back material show through and it adds more grip, but the headphone port cutout isn't big enough for my ATH-M50s :(

The Diztronic is really really nice. It just doesn't add as much grip. The buttons are also really easy to press. It's the one I usually use.
[X Style (Pure) General] WelcomeToTheSkye:
i have never been a case person... i break all the cases i ever get... plus all the cases (beside the incipio brand) suck for this phone
[X Style (Pure) General] WelcomeToTheSkye:
Yeah i might end up going with the incipio duo thingy lol the one with two layers soon... im just not a case person... thanks for the recommendations
[X Style (Pure) General] Jay794:
I got a pretty nice looking carbon fibre look case off eBay for less than £5 and it's saved my phone no end of times, if you go caseless and your phone breaks you only have yourself to blame
[X Style (Pure) General] DubstepWithPON3:
Wallet cases are also a great way to protect your phone/screen. I looked around on Amazon for a while and the only well reviewed one was the one by a company called J&D. I purchased it in turquoise and paired it with the Pleson tempered glass screen protector and the only downside is that all tempered glass protectors for this phone come up a little on the sides due to the curved screen but otherwise this is a protective and attractive combination.
[X Style (Pure) General] kevinmcmurtrie:
Make sure you head over to https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Moto-X-Pure-Moto-X-Style/bd-p/449 before having Moto Mobility work on it. There's some disagreement over whether it's a scam or negligence, but either way you're in for a lot of trouble.

I don't use a case either because it makes the phone too large for a pocket. Too bad Moto didn't put a rim around the glass like every other Chinese and Japanese phone has. I guess they wanted the iPhone look with a minimalist white face and a cracked screen.
[X Style (Pure) General] WelcomeToTheSkye:
I repaired it myself! Everything works perfectly...
[X Style (Pure) General] pabel101:
Im having the same issue,Dropped the phone bought a replacement screen since motorola wants to charge me 250 bucks JUST FOR THE SCREEN but the worst part about all of this is when i removed the phone back i couldnt remove the screws because most of them are stripped :'(. so now im stuck with this phone like this and i dont want to buy a whole new one cause im poor.
[X Style (Pure) General] WelcomeToTheSkye:
Same thing happened to me I stripped 6/20 of the screws... Turns out if you rip the screen off by getting a screwdriver under it you can still the stripped screws out of the back frame. It doesn't need all 20 screws it needs the one to hold the motherboard to the screen and at least 8 to keep it in place
[X Style (Pure) General] kevinmcmurtrie:
Everybody says this so I'm betting Leno glued the screws in. It's fixable if it's into plastic. Lift the edge of the screw head with a knife tip as you turn it. Once it's out, clean the threads. Dip a thin wire into plastic welding glue (modeling and pipe glue works) and wet the inside of the screw hole. Clear out any excess glue. Let the glue dry somewhere warm for at least an hour. The screws should fit now.
[X Style (Pure) General] ffejeroni:
Can you post a link to the replacement you got? I bought one of the higher priced ones on ebay and have had three with screen issues. The seller just wants to refund me at this point, so I need to find one that will not have light bleed, dead pixels and an unresponsive screen. Thanks in advance!
[X Style (Pure) General] affiatic:
I am not recommending anyone do this and am not responsible if you mess your phone up. but this worked For my stripped screw. Replaced my screen today. One screw stopped I drilled the head of the screw out. I used a left handed bit because you drill in reverse with these and if the bit grabs it may unscrew. May but didn't. It made me very nervous but worked. And the part of the screw that was left in didn't matter since I bought the screen with the bezzle/frame. And I had a extra screw same size. It was Philips head but worked. There is a good chance if you try to drill out your stripped screws you will completely brake your phone. But there is that small chance for success?
[X Style (Pure) General] EdCarden:
I've also been carrying mine naked for the past few months. I've had a few particularly bad drops and I just thank God that I put a decent screen protector on it.
[X Style (Pure) General] aybarrap1:
You are a brave person. Couldn't imagine going naked. I've seen to many broken ones just due to unforeseen circumstances.
[X Style (Pure) General] Couchbox:
What screen protector out there protects from drops? I haven't used one for my past few phones so just curious
[X Style (Pure) General] ismithx:
in order to protect from drops you should have a case that has a lip around the front and edges of the phone, and a tempered glass screen protector. that way if you phone falls on the sides it won't break, and if it gets impacted from the front the tempered glass will break in the worst case. you can then replace the screen protector while your phone is intact
[X Style (Pure) General] aybarrap1:
This is what I would recommend. Of course none of this is 100? guaranteed even with small drops but it goes a long way. As far as a case with a good lip, I have the Incipio dual pro which has a good lip. The Incipio octane had a less prominent lip but is a little slimmer. The OtterBox defender and SUPCASE beetle have a good lip but has built in plastic screen protector.
[X Style (Pure) General] Couchbox:
Awesome thanks for the replies guys. I have the dualpro right now and I'm looking at tempered glass. Thinking about the Pleson one. It's been so long since I applied any screen protector I hope I haven't lost my touch. Although I've heard with this phone if you put the cheap bumper that came with it on before application it goes on pretty perfectly.
[X Style (Pure) General] aybarrap1:
In general, based off my reading these forums, more people have luck with the PLESON than other protectors. I opted for the Incipio flex one despite having issues with it twice previously because the edges would stop adhering after a couple of days (got a refund then found it on Amazon for half the cost recently and decided third time is a charm). It has been more than a week and so far the combo is great. But the flex is just that: very flexible and almost plastic like. Don't know if it would actually work as well as the rigid glass for protection.

Good evening,

This is the first time I post here and my GT- I9300I was working but the battery had just quickly ( 1 hour use at most , heated machine ) and my IMEI was null \ null. I bought the unit secondhand but I was trying to solve these problems by odin , I backup the efs folder and etc ... But to try at Odin in any version flash the device came across the error " There's no partition pit ", and in so downloading the message : " mmc write fail" . Soon after I tried to restore the cell the way recovery along with the sd card but without success . I then decided to take a cw and flashing by cell own which caused the device now only is in downloading mode and I can not put him or download mode or turn it again. It already starts in recovery mode! If you can help me thank you !! :D:D

[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arvin2212:
Hey guys,

Just got myself a new Mate 8 (nxt-l29)

If i were to unlock the bootloader and were to re-lock it, would that mean the warranty is 100% void, or would it depend on the service center?

I believe that someone on the forum found a method to lock the bootloader from re-lock. Correct me if i am wrong :)
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fca801c40e19fb39:
You can relock with dcunlocker. Since there's no knox like,once relocked no could say it was unlocked .

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] redjinx:
There's 5 model leather case from Noreve for S7 Edge, I choose the new model horizontal flap without magnetic closure. I have custom order (Serpent Nero - interior lining Cerise Vintage), they need 10 - 14 days for the production, the package shipped by DHL Express for free and took 4 days to arrived. The case came with red/black box and red pouch, you'll smell distinctive leather scent when put it out from the box, it's a real leather with snake skin pattern look, the combination black outside and red inside is nice. Built quality and detail of this case is superb, embossed leather on the inside and metal Noreve logo outside make this case elegant, it's very well hand-made by Noreve craftsmen. I put my gold S7 Edge on it, there's a clean cutout for the camera, power button, volume button, audio jack, charging port, speaker, SIM/Micro SD card. The case is simple and slim, I still can make a call while the case in closed position, even though I don't recommend this model if you want full protection, without magnetic closure there's possibility the phone screen will break if touch the ground first while it drop, maybe you can consider other model with magnetic flap or the pouch one. Overall this case has great look and elegant. A lot combination leather range, color, finish, model, and great built quality from Noreve make this case so premium. Please take a look picture for detail, sorry for bad camera quality.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] minoch:
That is nice... Like your red interior. There is definitely something to be said for a custom case.. Good call

Ive had at few Noreve cases. They look really nice but they made a serious impact on my celluar signal reception on the S6 Edge. It made my signal drop from 3 bars to 1.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] redjinx:
How can it be? There's no metal in this case, the frame it self made by thermoplastic, is it the magnetic closure can interfere cellular signal?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] ndelinde:
The s6 edge case actually was bendable so i think there was metal in it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] mrcricket23:
That looks ugly imo to each it's own

Hello everyone, going to make it quick for this one. I am trying to change the boot animation on my Rikomagic MK802IV. Here is some info about it:

Version: 4.4.2

Kernel Version: 3.0.36+ Tues Jan 26 09:23:21 CST 2016

Build Number RKM MK802IV-eng 4.4.2 KOT49H eng.hyz.20160126.092940 test-keys

I have been able to unpack the files and have modified the bootanimation.zip file, which was found in the typical media folder. However when I go to reboot the changes fail to save, and I am back to square one. Also, whenever I edit the system.img file nothing seems to change either. I add and remove apps, change and modify the launchers, and really make things nice, only to have it act like nothing has changed. Any ideas how I can fix this?

I have been working around with many ROMs lately and had a hard time with all of them. Most of them were based on CM. And most of them had network/Sim issues. I just found out that a good stable ROM for GT-P3100 is SLIM 4.4.4. I have not tried it yet but i would like to try something with Marshmallow instead of Kitkat. Is there a good stable rom with Marshmallow?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Awesomeness_1307:

Ok, new guy here so be kind. I have a Dragon Touch M8 that I upgraded from KitKat 4.4.4 to Lollypop 5.0. I am not a big fan of Lollypop 5.0 and would like to go back to KitKat 4.4.4. However, the only stock ROM that I can find is 4.4.2 which is not working with some of my apps. When I contact customer service, they send the link to the 4.4.2 rom, when the thing shipped with 4.4.4. Good grief.

Any how, lessons learned about screwing around with android and flashing a new rom with out a backup of the the original.

Would anyone have a stock Dragon Touch M8 Kitkat 4.4.4 rom? I do not have a backup of the original rom.

Hey, I'm running the preview build 2 in my 6p. Yesterday all of a sudden my phone rebooted and got stuck on the boot animation screen. I'm running on a fully stock build with bootloader locked and OEM unlock option in developer settings disabled so I can't flash any image.

I tried a factory reset from stock recovery but it still gets stuck on the boot animation screen. Please tell me what should I do. Will ADB sideload work for me if I've got the latest image already installed on my phone?

Is it applicable for warranty? Everything's stock and the N preview was installed via OTA
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
With your bootloader locked and no way to unlock it you're pretty much screwed. This is why it's important to have your bootloader unlocked.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DJBhardwaj:
Even a factory reset didn't help? Well, that's a shock. Since your device has not been modified in anyway, you would have blamed an app. But now that you already did a factory reset, and even then it wouldn't boot, my only guess goes to a hardware failure/issue. And yes, It's perfectly eligible to be covered under warranty.

Hi guys, i´m having the same issue with the developer preview 3 (google called the first beta). My bootloader is locked and "oem unlock" is disable. I already sideload the OTA image with adb but i´m still stuck on boot animation after the installation. Do you know what should do next?

Thanks very much for your help.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlfexOmega:
Exact same issue :'(
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seangeezy12:
Ok so let me see if this helps. I had the same issue. Let it sit and reboot itself a few times and it will boot right up. Or you can fast boot flash a factory image and that should work. Mine sat for about 15 min after installing the N3 beta and then it booted.

What would probably fix the issue is if you guys sideload the ota downgrade back to mm from dev prev 3 once someone uploads it. Anyone have it handy yet for someone to try?

Should boot into N fine then.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] S2svetko:
I had the same issue and did what major said. Here are the steps with a bit more detail.

Select recovery from the fastboot menu, it will reboot into recovery. Then hit the volume up button and power buttons at the same time to get the recovery menu (I had to do this several times). Then select clear cache, then factory reset, then do clear cache again and finally reboot. That fixed it for me but it wipes your phone. Hope that helps.
