[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zagorim:
A friend of mine soft-bricked his old galaxy s2.

The phone is running a custom android 5.1 or 6.0 (I don't remember) that i flashed for him a few months ago.

He said he just disabled the google app (not sure why he did that) and the phone crashed and is now stuck in a bootloop.

Anyway I'm trying to enable the app back and hopefully fix the phone without having to wipe everything and flash back the system.

Does anyone know how/if it's possible from an adb shell in recovery mode ?

I tried the pm command but it just crash in recovery, probably because android is not running.

Maybe i could make it work with a chroot or something. No idea how to do that on android though.

Thanks for the help.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saber:
Hi,

In this situation, it would be best to wipe your phone. Avoiding wipes is not what you want to do as this could cause more problems instead.

You could try wiping system partition and cache partition. Reflash the ROM and gapps and see if that helps. You should still keep all of your apps this way and no personal data is affected.

Otherwise full wipe is the only option left.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zagorim:
Thanks for your help, i tried to wipe only system partition and cache but unfortunately the phone was still stuck in a bootloop. Tried then to manually remove all google apps and their data before reinstalling them but it didn't work either. I gave up and formated the data partition which fixed it as expected.

I know this isn't a real Hermes topic but this is where I see vp3G more than anywhere else on the board. I just picked up a Kaiser, and it is bloated and needs to be cleaned up. The reason I came to this board is that I was a happy owner of a Wizard then a Hermes and I want to share my excitement with other owners of the previous phones. If you liked either the Wizard or Hermes you will love the Kaiser (my biggest thing is built in GPS!!!). So now that the phone is in the consumer channels I would like to see more ROMS from people I trust and vp3G roms have always been the best (in my humble opinion), so what I am suggesting here is those of us that get this new phone if we donate enough to vp3G (or your favorite ROM chef) so he can pick up a phone at no cost to him, he will be working his magic on the Kaiser. Is anyone else up for the idea???
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] bmc357374:
honestly i would have absolutely no problem donating to a chef like vp3g (i mention him bcuz I am stuck on his ROMs). Unfortunately I'm in college and dont work so income is spotty at best. I was actually just thinking that when I do have a little to spare im definitely going to be making a donation to him anyways. now if the chefs were to take the money from donations and purchase a tilt (or kaiser or whatever u prefer to call it) so they could begin working on something for that that would be great. so...ive said all that to say i planned on donating anyways because i enjoy the great work.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sny_tr:
I have been using CM for years. Since I flashed CM11 to my SGS4, I noticed that email app won't work. It does sync but when I tap an email it's just blank page with circle that tells me it's loading. But when I tap and hold somewhere on that blank page it shows me that cut copy select all options. I copied and pasted somewhere and I saw my email already loaded but app just won't show me at all. I'm using a Nexus 4 with CM 13 and it still happens! I googled it but couldn't find thing so I'm asking to you guys. What is the problem? Also I can't even login to my Gmail via this app. Google sends me an email that someone tries to reach my account. I can only use my Hotmail and this happens. Hope there is a fix. :rolleyes:

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zroice:
Hey folks

I got my hands on an Indian HTC One M7 with dual sim (802D / M7CDWG) and currently HBOOT 2.49.0000.

I would like to flash a custom rom OR turn it into GPE if that is possible, but couldnt find any information if that is possible at all with the dual sim variant(s).

Its currently s-on, is a s-off possible with this HBOOT Version?

If nothing else is possible i'd just like to install a custom recovery and root that thing and customize the preinstalled rom.

Would be cool if someone who knows smth about it can tell me what is possible and maybe how to approach it.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
There is not much development for this variant. Forget about the full GPE conversion, the GPE RUU is will only works on the M7_U and M7_UL variant. Flashing custom roms is possible as long as you only use roms compatible for your variant (do not use roms for the M7_UL on your dual sim)

Same for the custom recovery, you must flash a recovery that is compatible with your variant. There is a few threads for the dual sims variant in the general section, you might want to take a look there.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GLO:
Hi,

I need help!

I made a back up of my HTC M8 Lollipop on May 21 and then upgraded to Marshmellow to see if it will resolve some battery and bluetooth issues i have been experiencing.

Then tonite I connected the M8 back to the Sync Manager and got a message that because the device was factory reset, it asked if I would like to create a new back up.

So I did, but apparently it wiped out my May21 back up???

How can I get that back up back? :confused:

The Marshmellow version im running now has only basic apps so I can get a baseline battery life and bluetooth testing.

Appreciate any help.

Thanks in advance.

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steham:
Will a micro sd card work as a general external storage drive in the Fire TV box. I have lots of movies and mp3's which I plan to transfer to the card. Could I use VLC or similar media player to play these over kodi on the box. I know there is a limit of 128Gb card size but are there any other formatting issues or restrictions? Is it just a case of copying the files to the card on my pc and inserting it into the box. Thanks

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steham:
Thanks Bevnrick, but this guide refers to moving kodi files and apps from the Fire TV box to micro sd. I'm just looking to play existing media files (mkv, mp4, etc) stored on the micro sd using Plex, VLC, etc whilst it's inserted in the micro sd slot of the Fire TV box.

If it's possible are the any limitations of file type/size or any lagging issues? Which app is best for this? Thanks
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deanr1977:
You can use VLC for Android, but I prefer to just use Kodi to view the files, VLC is good but I find Kodi has a better visual experience & doesn't interfere with other apps like VLC does with Mouse Toggle for Fire Tv (if you use it?). You may just need to find (browse) the files & if you want you can add them to a shortcut to your Kodi main screen.

Hope this helps
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyder:
the MicroSD in the Fire TV 2 only accepts Fat32 format, so maximum file size you can have is a 4GB. Might be a work around for this, I don't own the 2nt gen Fire TV so i don't pay much attention to what people do for it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Shyuura:
Hello everyone, I've noticed recently that whenever my phone is under direct sunlight, the screen doesn't get as bright as before, in fact it's barely visible with auto and maximum brightnes. I also noticed that the "Optimized for outdoors visibility" (sort of) is no longer mentioned under the brightness slider.

I haven't modified my phone nor flashed any custom kernel, it's running the latest officially available XEF firmware.

I've done tests under the *#0*# menu and the sensor seems to be working just fine reacting to changes, also was using Samsung good lock and though it was the culprit so I removed it but the issue remains. So I really have no idea what might be the problem here, any advice guys :/ ? Thanks!!
[HTC Excalibur] alrights:
I am currently using WM6 and am trying to get EMail through our Exchange server setup; however, my Dash s620 will not properly save the server's address.

The address for our OWA is (ex) mail.email.com:8888/exchange

and this address works fine in Internet Explorer etc, but when I enter this into the phone it removes the /exchange and only saves up to :8888, which then gives me "Error synchronizing" when trying to connect. Our Exchange server does have Exchange ActiveSync enabled along with Direct Push enabled.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance
[HTC Excalibur] surfing10:
I think that you have to check your ActiveSync settings on Exchange. I know that Microsoft have a lot of KB's about that.
[HTC Excalibur] jt76542:
It does the same thing on mine, erases exchange, but mine is cool. Are you sure you are putting in the Domain?
[HTC Excalibur] alrights:
Yeah I've tried every which way I could think of for the login credentials.

I'll sift through some more MS articles tomorrow afternoon, see if I can't find anything... baffled though, really.
[HTC Excalibur] alrights:
K this is going to be a huge PITA I can tell.

I adjusted the Virtual Directory for the default web site in Exchange System manager to point directly to /exchange, eliminating the need for anything after the :8888. It works fine in IE etc, quickly brings up a login prompt. Using the phone's IE and going to the http://mail.email.com:8888 works fine, prompts a login accordingly...

I configured a coworkers Blackberry to use our OWA and it works fine, but I'm not sure if it uses Push Email (Exchange ActiveSync).

What is it about the Dash that won't mesh? The server is not using SSL so I couldn't see it being a certificate issue (maybe it still is?). Is there anyone around who manages an Exchange Server and could perhaps shed some light on common settings that need to be adjusted for Exchange ActiveSync?

Such a nuisance :(
[HTC Excalibur] alrights:
ActiveSync on the phone reports "The server could not be reached. Please verify the server name." Support code: 0x80072EE7

It reports back with this no matter how I enter the address (which again, works fine in IE). Devil phone :mad:
[HTC Excalibur] unlockMe:
8888 is definetly not standard for publishing ActiveSync.

the software will connect to either MailServer:80 if the SSL checkbox is cleared or MailServer:443 if the checkbox is checked.

don't think you'll get ActiveSync connect to something else.

Why don't you change your port back to 80?

you are already exposing your server to internet without any form of protection (no SSL so your password can be sniffed over the network) and having port 8888 buys you nothing in terms of security since any port scanner will report the port as opened and eventually get the HTTP banner from the IIS Server.

So, get back to a standard config and you'll love your DASH again.

Hey guys!

As the titles says, I updated my G5 H831 (Canada, Fido) yesterday and the wifi stopped working. The slider is greyed out and will not turn on. When I tap the slider to enable wifi it slides over, but after exiting the settings app and reopening, it reverts to the greyed out off position. I've already tried and factory reset, battery pulls etc. Does anyone have any info on this or have had similar experiences?

[LG G5 Questions & Answers] ryanpm40:
Sounds silly to wait for an update for a pretty necessary feature on a smartphone (unless you're lucky and have unlimited data?). Just replace the device under warranty- LG warranty lasts for 1 year. It definitely sounds like some sort of defect. Have you tried factory resetting? Always factory reset if you find an unexpected problem, or at the very least, the system cache partition.

Not sure what build your variant updated to, but I'm at the May 12A update on Verizon with no such issues
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] panzerjager198:
I tried a full factory reset (wipe all partitions). My phone is the Canadian Fido vatiant (unlocked,) and I have unlimited data with WIND here. Not sure how to go about getting a replacement device through warranty as Fido considers getting a phone unlocked voiding their warranty.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] ryanpm40:
Didn't know you unlocked it. If it came unlocked, though, LG would be the ones to warranty it. Idk what Fido is, but it's an LG issue.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] panzerjager198:
Fido is just a carrier here in Canada. How do I go about getting the LG factory warranty?

Update:

So I tried turning WiFi on again out of habit. Lo and behold it turned on! Not entirely sure what caused it to stop working (or start working again, for that matter) but it's working now. I'd still like to figure out why it quit but I'm not too sure how to go about doing that.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] ryanpm40:
I see its working for you again, but just in case you run into issues in the future, Fido should be able to direct you to the LG Warranty process for you. I've had a few warranty issues in the past 5+ years with my Verizon carrier and I just call them and they set up shipment for me .

Anytime I've done it, they overnight me a refurbished phone, but idk if that's a Verizon thing.. they definitely send it to LG for warranty, but idk if most people have to wait for repairs and my carrier is just cool and will give you the refurbished one.

It went back to being grayed out as soon as I started to reinstall my stuff on the phone. So they sent it to get repaired again. I think that since I've been without a proper phone now for 1 month that if I get it back and it doesn't work that I will have to try and get LG to replace it. After all the phone is only 3 months old. Has anyone else managed to get them to replace the phone without difficulty?

Hey there,

I installed CM13 on my OP2 a few days ago and it worked fine.

Today I accidentally restarted my phone into the fastbootmode and wanted to exit. So I kept holding the power button.

Well, it shutted down. But I can't start it anymore. If it's not charging nothing happens by holding the power button. If the charging cable is plugged in, it vibrates after a while like usual and then the OnePlus Symbol appears for about half a second and then the phone dies again.

Can you guys help me out getting my phone up again?

By the way: I'm completely new with rooting, flashing & xda, so please help me if I've done anything wrong :angel:

Did you rebooted to Fastboot mode just after flashing the ROM or you were already on CM13? it's not possible that you brick your device just by enter in fastboot mode something happend but i'm sure there is a solution :)

Yes, have tried a second phone on that socket and on that cable

I only rooted it for the installation of CyanogenMod. In the Developersettings, the root is deactivated.

[OnePlus 2 General] Chris-woods:
try to open command prompt and to type fastboot devices and show me a screenshot or tell me what it says btw were you H2OS Marshmallow or OOS 3.0 Marshmallow before installing CM13 ?
[OnePlus 2 General] CptCrunchy:
The cmd says nothing. It skips a line and waits for a new input...

Before CM13 I was on OxygenOS 2.1.1 (not flashed)

[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lkrasner:
I can not get my device to show up in almost every mode via usb. The ONLY thing that works, is, from recovery, choosing apply update from adb. Then, I can see the device as sideload with adb devices, but every command results in "error: closed"

When just in recover, download mode, or powered on, the device will not be recognized. I have tried Windows and Linux mint on my computer, as well as another mac computer, all with 3 different high quality cables that work fine for other devices.

In windows, device manager shows the error "Device descriptor request failed". This all started out of nowhere the other day.. I had it connected via mtp, it disconnected and reconnected itself a few times, then quit working all together.

I've tried HTC sync manager, as well as standalone drivers, but I doubt it is any computer issue since i have tried multiple OSs annd computers....

Any ideas? I'm trying to backup some files and finally get this thing running something other than stock.
