[General Questions and Answers] Jibbe:
Hello,

So lets start I forgot my code so I resetted my phone and now I got this:

When you boot up the phone you see first the HTC Logo then the Vodafone logo and then the homescreen with the ring. So when you swipe the ring up it says 'Leider wurde der Prozess com.htc.bg beendet' wich means that the process 'com.htc.bg' has been ended. After you click OK the whole screen is white with the green HTC logo in the middle. Nothing works anymore just the recent apps button wich just indicates 'no recent apps'. If I shutdown the phone from this state and restart it, it goes to the homescreen obviously but after swiping it opens the HTC Sync Manager wich is just a blank program with a black title with no text and a black bar at the bottom with no buttons (or at least no text). And again nothing can be done except getting to the recent apps but there are none and the Boot menu with Shutdown, restart etc and the sound control.

So far what I've tried (basically everything what you can try without a PC and more):

- Tried everything from the homescreen every button, you get the point. No success

- Booted into the bootloader* and clicked every option. Worked kind of, although the bootloader* says it is missing files

- Booted into recovery** using the bootloader* and clicked every option. Worked aswell kind of although recovery** says it is missing files.

- Hooked up the phone to my PC. The PC only detects my phone when booted up and not when in bootloader and recovery.

* When going into the bootloader it says:

SD CHECKING!

Loading [ZIPNAMEHERE.ZIP]

NO IMAGE!

Loading [ZIPNAMEHERE.NBH]

NO IMAGE!

Loading [ZIPNAMEHERE.ZIP]

NO IMAGE!

etc etc etc.

Then it just shows the menu of the bootloader with all options

NOTE: My bootloader is unlocked it shows: *** UNLOCKED *** at the top.

** When going into the recovery this is what happens:

- HTC Logo apears

- Phone icon with download icon above it

- Phone icon with red triangle

When pressing POWER and VOLUME UP a menu shows with the following:

Android system recovery <3e>

Use volume key to hightlight;

click power key to select.

Reboot system now, only one that works and does what it should do

Apply update from external storage

Wipe data/factory reset

Wipe cache partition

Apply update from cache

Also at the bottom it says

E: Can't open /cache/recovery/command

Any help is appreciated

Thank you

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A.VOID:
Trying to apply a .zip from stock recovery and when I select

"Apply update from SD card"

I get

"Couldn't mount /sdcard

I tried wiping the cache partition, etc

Thoughts?

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dahawthorne:
I don't use stock recovery, but it sounds as if you need to mount the partition (system?) as read/write. TWRP can do this and you can temporarily boot TWRP as a one-off by entering in bootloader mode "Fastboot boot twrp.img", then mounting as r/w and trying to flash the zip again.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cam30era:
You can't flash a .zip from stock recovery. You can only adb sideload an OTA. If you want to flash a .zip, you'll have to use TWRP.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A.VOID:
Thanks for the replies. I haven't installed twrp because I understand i can't apply ota updates after twrp.

Correct?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cam30era:
Yes, that is correct. If there are any modifications to the system or boot partitions, the OTA will fail to install. This includes, but is not limited to rooting and unencrypting.

But you can boot TWRP from fastboot without installing it to flash your .zip.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] explorer-10:
-bump for TeamNexus6(p)-

So, meaning you can't even "apply an update from sd card" using a stock OTA from stock recovery?

edit: this method 1 OTA Install update no longer works for 5.0-7.1.x?

Hi,guys!I've had some trouble now.

I've unlocked bootloader before on N5x, but I accidentally locked it up again today.I want to use the "fastboot oem unlock" command,it doesn't work.

Now,when I open the phone,it only shows fastboot mode . And I can't start,recovery,boot anymore. My phone can only stay on this page which shows"Your devixe is corrupt.It can't be trusted and may not work properly" with a red exclamation mark.

How can I do now ? Looking forward to your reply.

Hey Guys!

I have this problem for about 5 weeks now. I have 195MB free space, but when I try to install a new app or update one PlayStore (or the local apk installer) says that there is insufficient space. I tried to remove possible backup data (I did'nt found anything) and I deleted unused apps or old pictures etc. Before I do a hard reset, I wanted to know if there's anything else you know I can do.

Looking forward for answers :)

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Junner2003:
While playing with my HERMES I noticed the following:

First:

The screen is not as bright as on the WIZARD!

Second:

When turning on the camera you shortly can see that the backlight gets increased while opening the CAMERA application. Now, that tells me that there could be a way to increase the background backlight permanently over its default maximum.

Has anyone an idea? I tried already to raise the registry values for backlight without success.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Reaper29:
VJ's

There is a program by VJ called super bright I believe it what you are looking for, if so post a little love for VJ's hard work:D here is the link

http://www.vijay555.com/vj/releases/vjlumosiii/vjlumosiii.exe
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Junner2003:
Well, it makes the screen nice and bright - that's for sure! :D

The drawback's on this neat little application: You can't shut it down other than restarting the PDA, you can't adjust brightness and you can't use the CAMERA as long as the application runs.

I just wonder if the brightness could be increased via Registry Hack - that would be great! :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] duke_stix:
how very odd! i've noticed that comparing my Vario I (Wizard) with my Vario II (Hermes) the Hermes has a considerably better and brighter screen! the colours are a lot more 'fuller'!

i havent tried the 'VJ' app, but will do when i get home,

why would you want it so bright anyway?!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Junner2003:
Well, the brightness helps while watching a movie on the go!

Also if you do some work on the road or navigation in the car it comes in handy. I just wish the application mentioned above would not have so many side effects ...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] galaxys:
I just 'click or ok' Super Bright the same way to turn it on or off (no pda restarts needed).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] fgdt:
Run the program again to shut it off. I mapped it to one of the hardware buttons.

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] junk!e:
Okay guys here 's the backstory .My OPO fell into water and as always advised by the numerous forums online, I put my OPO in a bowl of rice / silica gel for almost 4 days. :cowboy: :good:

When I tried to turn on the phone on the 5th day unfortunately it didn't. :rolleyes: Tried to charge it but the LED woudn't light up and the device was stuck in the bootloop at the 1+ logo and powered by android screen. :eek: and when connected to PC i did get it to recognize as the QHSUSB_BULK :victory: installed the drivers and used the MSMTool to flash it again. though the flash was successful the device still continues to be stuck in the boot loop. :crying:

I think probably the battery it at fault. :confused: When the device fell into water the charge was around 8 %, it's probably dead ( also I get the Low battery charge for sometime to continue message and some text in Chinese , but device still doesn't charge) .

So I wanted someone to try to boot the device directly via the USB power while the battery is disconnected to see if the device boots into system or if it's show the low battery Warning.I'll will be really grateful to you if you could do this task for me. Also if you guys have any other suggestion to bring my OPO back to life or ways to charge my battery it'll be helpful. :silly:

THINGS I AM ABLE TO DO: :D

1 ) use the MSMTool and flash the firmware

2 ) enter fastboot and flash fastboot images

THINGS I AM NOT ABLE TO DO : :(

1 ) charge the battery. LED doesn't light up. ( I have tried leaving it for charging using the official charger for upto 48 hrs. Have also tried using other chargers and USB cables)

2 ) enter recovery either directly using the vol down button nor by using the fastboot boot recover.img cmd ( most of the time I get the LOW battery Screen http://i.imgur.com/ih8oKSA.jpg , still doesn't charge )

THINGS I HAVE TRIED: ;)

1 ) MSMFlashtool and the OneplusoneRecovery tool(The modified MSMtool to flash the CM11S firmware)

2 ) One-Click Back to Stock [64GB & 16GB] (by Martin hotmann)

3 ) boot recovery via fastboot command

4 ) Contact the customer service ( not helpful at all.They didn't even look in to my devices because of the water damage ).

[Galaxy Tab S2 General] miguimercadob:
Hi, this isn't a modified (untouched)firmware file, so if you flash with odin it may not trip knox warranty. I'm not completely sure, as I had knox warranty void before. The problem comes when you try to flash anything non-official files with Odin (modified roms, root or twrp), these files will trip the knox flag for sure.

[Galaxy Tab S2 General] DigitalMenace:
My gripe about not being able to format the SD card as Internal is pretty legit. Other devices it gives you both options when you format the SD card: Portable or as Internal storage.

The Galaxy Tab S2 with the UK firmware does NOT have the option.

You can, however, turn USB debugging on, authenticate the computer, and:

adb shell

sm list-disks

take note of the disk named, it should only list one like "disk:166:190"

type sm partition disk:166:190 private (To utilize the whole disk as internal)

or

type sm partition disk:166:190 private mixed 50 (To use 50% of the disk as internal and 50% portable) This method will show two disks when you plug the device into the computer, while the other aforementioned option will only show one - the now larger internal disk.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] DigitalMenace:
They are identical, but the SM-T810 has the capabilities for the stylus, that apparently is also pressure sensitive. I was just at best buy where they had the SM-T710 and the larger SM-T810 and we tried the T810's stylus on the T710 - it did nothing. Also they both had 5.0.2 on them, but different build numbers, so while I don't think it'd hurt anything, I think you'd be nerfing the nicer tablet's capabilities
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] DigitalMenace:
My tablet had a "My Galaxy" app that stated it wasn't available for my country, but after reading the reviews on the Play store, it seems to just bee ads anyway. Spotify works, and VuDu signs in, lets you chose and start the movie, but it never actually plays. Working on that.

Still no 5G Wifi here, which really slows things down.

Read, it needs lower 5Ghz bands since in the UK the higher ones are prohibited.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Mike10705:
This doesn't require root since its a Samsung image (UK version). Why is this not OTA in the US? This is ridiculous from Samsung. Works flawlessly when flashed with Odin in download mode.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] DigitalMenace:
It's stupid on Samsung's part. The ONLY differences I have found is the UK version has everything set default to the UK, so even if you choose US in the setup, it defaults the dictionary, keyboard, and adds a worthless app "My Galaxy Tab" or something like that. I did, initially, have an issue with it finding 5G wifi, but I changed the channels on both the router and range extender, and 5G works great, now the regular wifi has a lower signal. Weird.

I think the software version will dictate which OTA update you will get as the last time I was in the UK with a samsung tablet, and there was an OTA update available, it downloaded the US version, rather than use location services to dictate which update.

What I REALLY want is the standard, unmodified, SETTINGS app. Samsung has hidden some features, such as the ability to merge the SD card ( I recommend a UHS3 for these faster tablets as three UHS 1, while supposedly fast enough, causes stuttering in games and video) as internal storage.

You can use ADB shell and make it partition as such, but on my LG with CM13.1, it's a selectable option in the SD format setting.

---------- Post added at 03:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:37 PM ----------

I figured that out last night, thanks man. I have a concussion, so I've noticed I've posted this complaint a couple times. LOL

It steams fine on my cheap LG with CM13 nighly So I'm sure it's not a compatibility issue with MM, but maybe some flag in it being a UK release OS?

---------- Post added at 03:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:39 PM ----------

Yes, but you can only format the SD as portable. To use adaptable storage, turn on USB debugging and authorize the PC.

open command and type

ADB shell

sm list-disks

Take not of the disk, it'll be listed like 289,190

sm partition disk:289:190 private (if you want the whole SD as internal

or

sm partition disk:289:190 mixed 50 (making half the SD mountable in windows, Mac OS, or Linux for pictures, music, etc)

---------- Post added at 12:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:25 AM ----------

In searching through the ROM, I is set for Region 011, so I do believe well get UK updated. It may be a moot point as it's got to be only a matter of time before we get a US firmware we can install over the UK version. Of course we'll have to refresh the root package. Some apps are claiming it not rooted, while the important ones work fine.

I'm looking at changing the region code to see what happens.
