[Nokia Lumia 820] troc69:
im looking at buying second hand a NOKIA LUMIA rm-985 830 for wind.

as i understand winds uses AWS 1700/2100 and the seller says its factory unlocked.

when i search i see that factory unlocked has many bands and it seems like it should work when i put in a sim card.

the seller says it needs to be unlocked for Wind only, so im not sure how its factory unlocked but needs to be unlocked more?

im guessing its to unlock the AWS band that Telus/Rogers must be blocking?

is there a way i can unlock it or flash in a rom with a working band? i dont see a Lumina 830 section, so does the 820 work on this phone too?

thanks for any help

I guess mazook98 is thinking we might want to ditch our S7 for a note 5 so that we could have a rooted phone that feels like an S7 Edge. At least software wise.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Disc] mazook98:
No, I posted it for people who haven't pulled the trigger on buying the S7 because of the bootloader thing, but own a Note 5 right now. Or people who kept their old ones.

People DO check out forums of devices they haven't bought yet: at least, I know I do.

thanks the problem is gone : the solution To get into Recovery you need to keep both VOLUME + and - keys pressed down and hold .. Also press the POWER button till you see the Lenovo logo.

Looking for a remote really for my Shield K1, can't seem to find anything I really want. I am living hotel life for 3 months and want the remote mainly to control Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Hulu, but am open to setting up some emulators. I dont want the Shield controller but need something decent. My DS4 is so laggy and not really worth the time. I was hoping someone has used the NES30 or NES30 Pro controller. Please let me know if you have. Otherwise open to cheap remote alternatives Thanks.

Edit: My curiosity won. I paid $30 for it on GearBest, I'll report in if anyone wants to know how it works with the K1.

[Shield Tablet Accessories] Pepmaster:
As a soon to be Nividia Shield K1 owner, I would love to know whether this controller works well with the K1. I'm not a big fan of the official controller by Nvidia being so bulky and a bit too much for my taste. This seems like the perfect size and I love the retro look behind it all. Please share how well this controller works and whether all function buttons have some sort of response (dislike it when you press a button on a controller and it just doesn't do anything). Thanks in advance!
[Shield Tablet Accessories] techboydino:
Should be arriving next week. I'll post my findings.
[Shield Tablet Accessories] mojoe_24:
Do you happen to have a Nexus Player? I wonder if it would work with that too.
[Shield Tablet Accessories] Technogen:
I use the 8Bitdo Zero on my Shield Tablet, http://8bitdo.com/zero/ so there should be no reason that the NES80 one wouldn't work.
[Shield Tablet Accessories] IamSonoma:
Just curious.

How well does the Emu-Touchschreen software work?

I am curious as I have the Shield TV. If it works I could drag the controls with a mouse. The demos look very responsive?

Is there a library of templates?

Does it drop out?

Thanks.
[Shield Tablet Accessories] axewater:
would love to see an update in this thread .. how is the gamepad working out for you ?
[Shield Tablet Accessories] techboydino:
I got it late last week. Connected right up and is usable out of the box like a mouse or nexus player remote. I do have a Nexus player, but I wont be home to test it out for a month. I'll be doing some emulators and some games later this week and can report back on how button mapping works. Overall very happy with it so far. It's fast, no noticeable lag, and didn't require any special software to connect up. Worth the wait coming from overseas and definitely worth $30.

*Currently not rooted and on Stock Rom.
[Shield Tablet Accessories] Pepmaster:
I have also pulled the trigger on this gamepad and I must say it is very enjoyable. I have used snes9x to play some classic SNES games and it works very well. I did have to customize some buttons but it was very easy to get it to work. The only problem I came across was the lack of being able Tod program certain Dpad controls such as down+left or up+right. I'm not sure if there's a way to do this. If anyone knows please share. But other than that it works nicely. I also played some actual game apps such as Leo's Fortune and it was pretty awesome and enjoyable. Adding to that I plugged in my tablet to my TV via mini HDMI and had a great time playing on my 42" TV. Definitely recommended!!!
[Shield Tablet Accessories] aznmode:
The other problem with this controller is that ABXY button layout is not similar to every other after market ones. If you look closely the X Y and A B are reversed.
[Shield Tablet Accessories] robgee789:
hey guys is this controller any good for fps games like modern combat, all the bluetooth controllers ive tried have horrible deadzones on the analogue sticks which make fps games rubbish, and how does the nivida game mapper work with it because its horrible with a ps3 controller
[Shield Tablet Accessories] Volleymansam:
I've been using one with the K1 shield for the last couple of days, it has worked fine with Doom 3 and Halflife 2/portal.

As people have said before the layout of the buttons is weird but it doesn't take long to get used to, and the button mapper works fine for apps that don't support a controller( I'm still struggling with Brothers though). But after playing most of these games on my shield portable I'd say its definitely worth the money and not much different from my portable. I'm going to try halflife on my big screen tonight. I mainly bought the K1 to use with my phantom but with this control I'd say the portable will be for sale soon.

[Shield Tablet Accessories] matwlodek:
It is like it should be. If you search for Nintendo button layout you will see that it is the same.

---------- Post added at 09:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:12 AM ----------

There is no new/old version. Support for the Switch is firmware related. You can update your 8bitdo controller to new firmware and get it to work with Switch - I can confirm that.

Sorry for double post. I do not used multi quote it was my mistake.
[Shield Tablet Accessories] gqukyo:
I'm referring to the SNES version and not the NES version.
[Shield Tablet Accessories] aznmode:
Sorry, what I meant by other aftermarket are the ones like Moga, Steel Series, ipega, where the bottom where left button is X, top is Y, right is B, bottom is A.

So basically this is really only good for using on Nintendo emulators.
[Shield Tablet Accessories] SalmonRaindrop:
I wouldn't say it's only good for nintendo emulators. Strictly because I've used it for other things, and on my pc as well. If you can ignore what it's labeled, it's like any other controller. Swap them around if the emulator defaults it to the letter. 99% of the time we do the set up anyways for the controllers.

[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mohammad Jebreeni:
Hello everyone in XDA forums :o ,

I don't really remember what exactly was the thing that I did in which I hard-bricked my Samsung Galaxy Ace (GT-S5830i), but it was a combo of rooting and then (OS)s installations... I rooted the phone successfully and as far as I remember I could even flash a KitKat firmware, but then it got bricked at some point after trying to flash some Cyanogenmod firmware [USING ROM MANAGER]... YES, I got to know that it's terrible to use ROM Manager for that purpose on the ACE but that was after I bricked my phone -_- (I still don't know why though; anyways...)

My smartphone is currently hard-bricked, meaning that I can't access download mode, recovery mode, or even fastboot mode; and I can't see a single thing on the screen (not even the Samsung Logo or the so-called "Yellow Triangle" , or even the Android Logo)... The only sign that my phone is still working (AND NOT AT ALL HARDWARE-DAMAGED) is the color of the screen which is (well you can say purple or kinda grey; also known as the background light/brightness)... I've tried the following:

1- All the normal button combos in all possible ways and conditions.

2- The (removing the battery, connecting the device to the PC/Laptop, clicking a button combo, and then inserting the battery while still holding the button combo) method.

3- I even tried the adb method, the SP Flash Tool method, and using a Jig.

So practically my main problem is that my phone can't even get to any mode and that it can't be recognized by any PC/Laptop not even after installing the drivers properly or changing the cables... If I just could get my Laptop to recognize it or even just get to the download mode without even having my Laptop to recognize it, then I'd be easily able to solve the whole problem.

P.S: PLEASE don't tell me that it's hardware-damaged or that I need to go to Samsung, cuz IT IS NOT HARDWARE-DAMAGED AT ALL and under the VERY SAME circumstances many people could unbrick their hard-bricked devices, and one of which is the Samsung Galaxy S3, just because they have an alternative method to boot (including the "booting from SD Card using a debrick image" method); and my warantee is void a VERY LONG time ago, since I bought the phone like 5 years ago.

Even if a software solution is still not known to the community it still is possible to unbrick my phone using a JTAG Repair device.

I really hope that somebody would be able to help me in solving this dilemma with a software method... Thank you anyways, and have a nice day / good night. ;)
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hasan291:
Similar brick here on my S5839i. I did something stupid and flashed everything including bootloader from a galaxy Y (S5360).

Now its not responding to any button combos,

When turned on I get a blank screen, then the camera LED blinks and the touch buttons light up and it stays on the blank screen.

If I can just get into download mode somehow it should all be fine.

My last hope now is to try a jig when I get my hands on one.

Also when plugged in, its recognized by windows as BCM21533-Thunderbird

Maybe anyone has been in a similar state and could help please?

Thanks

Please help me with MMS settings on VS986 on MM for Cricket Wireless!

My phone was on 5.1 which had to be rooted to work on Cricket to change APN settings. So the phone got the infamous bootloop issue and LG replaced the board and I got it back working fine but also upgraded to MM. Interestingly I dont need to make any changes to the APN settings, I just put the Cricket SIM inside and turned it on and data works flawlessly without needing to root like I had to do on 5.1.

The problem is that MMS does not work. I have put all the correct APN settings in the phone. I also tried alternate app TEXTRA and that doesnt work either.

I'd appreciate any help I can get, any googling leads me to VS986 on 5.1 which obviously works just fine.

I will donate $100.00 for someone to create a flashable zip that works with Project Fi's native Google Dialer and more specifically one that can work natively with [MENTION=4395895]BeansTown106[/MENTION] Pure Nexus ROM for the Nexus 6p. After playing with numerous configurations/settings inside Boldbeast Call Recorder, I have found that while it's able to record audio on both sides for outbound calls it is not able to record audio on both sides for inbound calls on my rooted Nexus 6p. I've also found the outbound call recording quality to be far below what any of my previous phones, Palm Pre (still have the calls saved), Galaxy S3 and my GS5 provided. Again, this is for native call recording via a Flashable Zip or similar, not a Play Store App or APK sideloaded on top of a ROM.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] Beefheart:
These roms have their place. I used lots of them converted to work on my old Note 3 (Note 4, Galaxy S6, Note 5 etc). However, underneath it's obviously limited by the hardware of the older device. In particular the camera. Some features won't be supported, simply because the hardware is different. For example, I have read Always On Display on any device prior to the S7 can't be activated and the device be in deep sleep, which means the feature will have a far bigger battery hit. Not sure how accurate that is.

I've tried it to go back to stock recovery from twrp to perform the update via dload folder. And it's work.

If you want to try it in other stock Lollipop rom, just flash via fastboot.

It won't causes bootloop. If failed, your Phone just can't go into recovery mode. If this happen, just flash twrp recovery in according with the type of your Huawei p8 lite.

Hello.

I recently bought an LG lge440g from a friend as a present for someone special (since I'm broke:fingers-crossed:) knowing it was kinda bricked.

All it has is "download mode" and "security error" messages, hoping to fix it.

Pulsing (volume+)+(home)+(power) buttons give a buzz without any message and does nothing.

I tried most tools, including LGmobile support tool (4% stops), flash 2014, and some other software, without being able to detect the phone.

I lost count on how many drivers I installed yet, pc don't even make a sound when conected.

Tried on 4 different computers with WinXP, Win7 and Win10.

tried with and without battery.

I'm starting to lose hope

Any help or guide would be greatly apreciated, and sorry for my bad english (non native).

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Funey__:
I've been having a problem with an S4 Mini recently. A few weeks ago, it stopped booting whatsoever. I tried the "debrick.img" method but it only said that there was an error flashing to the eMMC. At that point in time, I was assuming it had a dead eMMC and I had to buy a new motherboard. I brung it out again a few hours ago and it booted, except it is stuck in a bootloop. If I try to enter recovery mode, it says "BOOTING RECOVERY MODE..." in the top left corner, then says "No command.". After a few seconds it then reboots.

I have attempted using Odin to flash TWRP but the same error occurs with the device, like it wasn't even flashed with TWRP. I did also try to flash a stock ROM, but to no avail. It's just stuck in this boot loop.

The Odin logs say that the flash was successful, so I don't see how it could be failing. Right now, it is sitting right next to me, vibrating, showing the manufacturers screen and then rebooting. All I can assume at this point is the eMMC is dead, and I should buy a new motherboard.

If there is any fix to it, I would really appreciate you could tell me so I can attempt to get it working again.

UPDATE: I just attempted to take the battery out to try and reflash the Stock ROM but now, it's showing the QHSUSB_DLOAD driver. This happened the last time and a friend told me that this is a dead eMMC and the device is basically now a brick. Hopefully this is just temporary and the device decides to be nice and function again. Fingers crossed!

UPDATE 2: I was doing some research and something appeared in Device Manager called "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM5)". I googled the driver and apparently it is a sign of a bricked Qualcomm Snapdragon. I'm going to try the unbricking steps and hope that this is the problem, and I don't need to buy a new mainboard.
