[Sprint LG G4] l33tlinuxh4x0r:
TWRP has a custom kernel. It is pretty much a kernel image so you need an unlocked bootloader. As far as unlocking the bootloader, it has a encryption key. If we had that we would be good but we don't so we need to bypass it somehow.

I think that our best bet is to wait and see if the sprint g5 gets unlocked and try to use that. Other than that I remember with the droid razr maxx that I had they used a program called safestrap instead of TWRP. It essentially took the stock kernel and loaded whatever you told it to software wise. However it had a boot screen which took 5 seconds longer to boot. Kind of like dual booting on a PC with grub.

P.S. I'm looking to get a Sprint G4 and start development on it but they are still too expensive.
[Sprint LG G4] TheMadScientist:
Development is dead on this device. We can make stock modified system images hardly call it a rom. Ure wasting ure time buying this. There will not be a bootloader unlock. Cant be hacked as of yet some of the worlds greatest android minds have tried may even still be. Fact is its prob not gonna happent any time soon. And the solution will either come from g5 or whatever they make after that. The bootloader partitions are to highly encrypted to hack. It does it really sucks but like i said lost cause

So I rooted and flashed twrp, and tried several ROMs but I'm not really happy with them. Is there anyway I can flash an official firmware and keep TWRP?

I'm mostly interested in that because if I have to install the recovery all over again I'll have to completely wipe my phone in order for TWRP to be fully functional, and I would rather avoid that.

[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t-readyroc:
OK, so I've got the original shield tablet. I have lost root, and whenever I try to boot to recovery, the system attempts, goes to a black screen, then proceeds to normal system boot. Environment:

stock 6.0

non-rooted (not since updating to 6.0)

shield version 4.0

build MRA58K.41524_664.1902

previously had TWRP

I understand loss of root/recovery w/that last update is normal. However, I've tried:

flashing the new TWRP via fastboot w/o success (3.0.2)

flashing the rooted boot img w/o success

even flashing the stock recovery w/o success

ADB & fastboot commands chug happily along, & I'm left with the same behavior. Flashing the stock recovery actually gave me the dead android at the recovery screen (was this b/c I flashed the one for 4.0.1 & I need the one for 4.0?). So, what's my next move here?

1) the twrp you linked to is for lollipop, states that in the notes section half way down the page.

2) to get root with this method you also have to install phh superuser

3) that dead Android IS the stock recovery

Now for help: flash this recovery(there are two here read and find the one for MM)

[RECOVERY] [unofficial] TWRP 3.0.2-0 (2.8.7.1 for Lollipop) [2016-04-05]
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t-readyroc:
Thanks Exile. I've got TWRP installed ok now, but it doesn't seem to be able to wipe anything - just kinda hangs there (trying to wipe dalvik & cache - just sits at "formatting cache using make_ext4fs"). It's also weirdly unresponsive with UI lag on button presses; not sure if that's a known thing. I'm assuming that the "E: Failed to mount decrypted adopted storage device" is in reference to my external SD card.

I also still don't have my WiFi. I've grabbed the WiFi full OTA from this post & adb pushed it. TWRP was able to successfully flash it, but then couldn't do the ensuing dalvik/cache wipe. I let it sit for a good 10mins just to see if it would finish, but it still sat at the same point. Force power-cycling booted it into the new 4.1/6.0.1 version, and I do have my WiFi back :)

So, how to get root back? Can I just flash the SU 2.65 I have from TWRP? Or do I have to flash the rooted boot img again? I do already have the Superuser app installed...
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Exile1975:
Ok, from here just flash the supersu.zip and you should be good. I can't remember if 2.65 works or not but I know you can find a copy of 2.71. someone else has a problem with 2.72 so it may or may not work.

As for twrp it has touch screen lag issues, I don't think any of the mm compatible versions have been able to fully fix this. I've had the same problem with dalvik cache and cache wipe, it is slow as molasses but will complete eventually. Once you have root I would suggest using a program called flashfire to flash zips and do things like cache wipe. It works like a charm.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kd-:
I've been banging my head against the wall all day with this one and am pretty close to throwing my 6P out the window of the place I'm staying right now :)

My 6P is normally on the Verizon network, but I'm traveling to Italy for a bit so I grabbed a local carrier's SIM (TIM, doubt it matters), and my 6P refuses to connect to their mobile network - as in, no signal ever, emergency calls only. I put the same SIM in my friend's iPhone here and it works fine. I also put it in an LG G4 here and it was at least able to pick up a signal.

Here's what I've tried so far, unsuccessfully of course:

* "Reset network settings"

* Selected TIM in the network provider screen. I get the extremely unhelpful "No Service: Selected Network (I TIM) is unavailable" and "try again later"

* Selected Automatic in the network provider screen.

* Switched between 2G/3G/4G for the above two steps.

* Changing network bands in *#*#4636#*#*

* After doing more research on the bands problem, resetting them via the advice I found here and more importantly, here - I changed it back to Automatic band selection. Tried Euro too for fun, and it didn't work either.

* Factory reset on the latest 6.0.1 build

* Flashed N preview, did a factory reset

I know for a fact that the 6P supports the correct bands via this Wikipedia page. I took a quick look at the logcat and didn't see anything interesting, if anyone thinks it would be useful I can post it here.

What gives? Is my device hosed? Anyone have other ideas on what to try? Thanks!
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boxcar8028:
I’m not sure about Italy but our n6p will work with non-US Sim. I just got back from China and Hong Kong and was using my USA Project Fi and two local carriers (3 and China Mobile) without any problems. Your issues may be carrier base. I did have some drop calls with the carrier 3 in Hong Kong and the set up with 3 was not as easy as China Mobile. I had the carrier 3 Sim installed at the carrier 3 store. But China Mobile installed just fine all by itself automatically as soon as I installed the Sim. You may want to have the local carrier TIM, take a look, I bet its something in the settings with the local carrier TIM.

Good Luck.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kd-:
Yeah, I thought in general that it should work. Unfortunately I don't think I'm going to be able to go into a TIM shop since we're not near one and I doubt I could communicate the issue effectively given my broken Italian... thanks though!
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kd-:
Well, to anyone unlucky enough to have this same problem... I've made some progress! Of the two TIM SIMs we have, one seems to be enabled for 4G access while the other will only connect to 3G - not sure if this is by design or not. I put the 4G-enabled SIM in my N6P, wiped, and rebooted to Chroma and everything worked before even selecting "Automatic".

I tried putting the 3G-only SIM back in - back to no signal. I wonder if the band selection thing isn't working properly? My impression is that it's a 3G only setting and doesn't affect LTE connections, but I could be wrong. I am fairly sure the N6P supports the 2G/3G bands TIM uses around here...

If anyone has a clue on how to make a guide like this: http://xdaforums.com/one-e8/help/signal-selecting-usa-band-4636-menu-t3091439 for the N6P that'd be awesome... not sure I will have time to experiment myself while in the area where it will matter.

Hello all,

So I did something which in hindsight was probably pretty stupid. I flashed a radio for an XT1250 on my XT1254. When I rebooted into Android I no longer had connection to the network (ATT, which had HSPA+ beforehand). I tried flashing the correct original radio back again and I still don't have anything. Am I totally screwed? Or is there something that I can do to fix it?

As I understand it, I will be the happiest upon changing to custom xiaomi.eu-firmware, but this requires me to switch to the china developer ROM first. This is why I want to unlock the bootloader.

It came preloaded with "MIUI Global 7.2.8.0.0(MAACNDB)" though, and I don't seem to be able to flash the firmware. When I check for updates it says: "no updates available" and when I manualy select the update package it says "Can't verify update".

Is my understandig correct? If so, please help me fix this. I'll be eternally grateful!
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] shade.sh:
I got mine with 7.2.4 Global Rom preinstalled and had no problems with the unlock app from Xiaomi. Some people says that its possible with Global Rom to unlock the bootloader, i can only confirm it for 7.2.4 - But it should be possible with 7.2.8 also. You can find the instructions for unlocking the bootloader also here at XDA, search for it ;)

To be sure you could change back to 7.2.4 by flashing with MiuiFlash in fastboot (or EDL) mode.

Please note: Please don't flash the latest Miui Stable CN or Miui Developer CN images, you'll lock you out of EDL mode with the newest versions...

If you need the link for 7.2.4 search the forum here or i can provide you with the file.

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattan1999:

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B3311:
Leave it in the rice - MUST be in a sealed container - at least 3 days, preferably 5. Don't even think of opening the container or trying the phone during that time. If you have any silica packets, for example the ones that come with new shoes, throw them in as well.

This worked perfectly for me on my old S3 and Note 2 - both had toilet swims, both were in full working order 5 days later.

The big disadvantage here is the non-removable battery. The theory is that by exposing as much of the phone's surface area as possible to the dessicant - rice - you increase the chances of everything drying out to the max. Unfortunately not possible with the Edge+.

Post in 5 days with your results. Good luck!

I've sent it to a repairhouse but they say that it won't get repaired trough warranty because it's rooted. I guess they couldn't see it's water damaged :D

Since I live in Europe the root shouldn't void the warranty if they can't prove it's the root that damaged the phone.

So wish me luck to get it repaired trough warranty! :D

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lawrence750:
they stick indicators in several places over the phones that will tell them straight away if it's been water damaged. The people you spoke to probably didn't open it up, so never saw that. Just wait until they actually open it and see the red stickers all over the place.

But forget the root, it's been water damaged. Water damaged stuff is ALWAYS 'beyond economical repair' because you need to replace near enough every single part of the phone to repair it properly, hence why buying a new phone is cheaper and why it's beyond economical repair in the first place.

Here's mention of one indicator: http://www.theandroidsoul.com/how-to-check-water-damage-on-galaxy-s6-and-s6-edge-75394/

Well it costs around (400$) to repair it and I have a home insurance wich covers about 75% of the cost.
