[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MadnessChi1d:
I was trying to show my friend the wonders of the android community ROMs but he liked his S4 as was, so I restored from a full backup made with TWRP but his password would not work after the restore, so we tried some methods to get around that but the system and every app in it just kept crashing, so I restored again and now the keyboard won't even pop up for him to put his password in, and the emergency dialer won't come up when you tap emergency calls. However when you select the keyboard chooser in the right side of the password box the options for samsung keyboard or the swype keyboard, no matter what I choose no keyboard popped up.

How do I fix this?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
TWRP has a problem with TouchWiz backups. A friend has an S5 and had the same problems with every TouchWiz backup he ever made.

I think the only way is to flash a stock rom through Odin and hope your friend doesn't want to kill you :)

Meh, I''m helping him get a nexus 5p on google Fi, so he can't complain, but he's addicted to Puzzles and Dragons and that's the only hope he has of recovering that data... and all the photos of his family, is there a way to extract those photos if the backup included them?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
Photos are stored on the internal/external storage, not on the phone's /data partition.

love the PK 3.0 ROM. its a real joy to use. cannot try remote desktop as my home pc runs on xp home edition. can anyone tell me if its worth to upgrade to proffesional to be able to use remote desktop or does logmein work just the same?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] sergiopi:
Remote desktop allows to use the athena keyboard and it rescales the PC screen to 640x480 instead of resizing it and this means "normal size" icons and text.

Using LOGMEIN the WM client allows only to RESIZE and sometimes the PC isn't readable or you have to scroll continuosly and you need to use his on-screen Kb.

Remote desktop needs a "public IP" and firewall configuration to be reached fron the phone and only ONE in the home/SOHO network could be reached if you have a single public IP.

Logmein is easier to configure, remote desktop requires some firewall/nat control.

I use both! :)
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] spacecat:
logmein can change the resolution to anything you want

and is far quicker and easier to use .

No need to open ports either and you can use the athena keyboard as well
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] wgary:
I also use LogMeIn. It gives lots of control of display. The free version is very usable. The Pro version adds more features (file transfer is particularly nice) but it does cost a few clams.

then apply/Ok and your good to go.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] sergiopi:
I agree, I've tested logmein some time ago and now the WM Client can use the keyboard and chose the resolution.

Sometime it loses the pointer when you change the resolution, some "screen misaligment" and you have to close and open it again

When i use a software like S view app to use proximity sensor to turn off the screen with a generic S view cover he turns off but when i open and try to use fingerprint he always ask for the pattern, but if i use the power buttom to turn Off, when i turn on i use normally the fingerprint and don't ask for the pattern, any solution to make the phone work like the power buttom with proximity sensor?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Misterjunky:
re: fingerprint issue

Everyone is having that exact or similar issue with fingerprints..

After doing some research about this issue I found out that it's

due to a new security policy that was added to the updated

S7 Edge firmwares.

If you want you can make a nandroid backup of your rom and

odin flash the original S7 Edge firmware for your phone and you

will find that the fingerprint problem will no longer be an issue.

Good luck,

Have a great day...

I am listening to music tracks on my Xperia z4 tablet. The music files are served by Minimserver from my QNAP NAS. The original files all have 2-digit track numbers. The necessary leading zeroes remain on the track numbers until BUBBLEUPNP receives the files, drops all of the leading zeroes and resorts the files - incorrectly, of course. Everything else seems to work just fine. I haven't been able to find a setting to tell BubbleUPNP to stop doing this. I have thousands of classical music tracks; they have to be played in the proper order. Appreciate any help.

[Huawei MediaPad X2] tabletnewbie:
Has anyone experience the problem of not having direct access to the microSD memory with Android 5.1?

I am trying to be careful and staying with Android 5.0, because from a previous bad experience with an upgrade from 5.0 to 5.1 on a generic tablet (made in China) that I lost all direct access to the SD card. Many apps with the need of lots of storage (e.g. native camera app, TubeMate Youtube downloader, and The great courses with off-line media archiving) were rendered useless because the saved files and data were soon filling up my internal device memory!
[Huawei MediaPad X2] audioralf:
I can not remember someone having this problem. There is only a change on handling memory and storage. A new formation on the internal sd on 5.1 solves this. So save your data before the Process.

But even the people who did not do this had a partial access to the sd. It was smaller, but accessible. So system could run. This is what Huawei did to prevent the problem you described. But at all no change on the external sd and no problem with that.

My device: 701->703 Kang VIP B209
[Huawei MediaPad X2] tabletnewbie:
Can you please explain a bit more what you meant when you said "A new formation on the internal sd on 5.1 solves this." Do you mean to reformat the SD card with the existing Android OS?
[Huawei MediaPad X2] audioralf:
Yes, use the option format internal sa within emui factory reset

Format sd in TWRP would not chance the format type, but just use the existing method.

[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diehard2013:
hello,

I'm interested in the Pixel C as a general purpose tab and mainly for doodling using apps such as sketchbook, zen brush, etc, just for fun, nothing serious or professional.

how does the pixel C compare to other top of the line models, like the surface pro, galaxy tab s2 and ipad pro?

is the display responsive and smooth?

there are no stores with demo units to try out, that's a pity...

thanks.
[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IIIIkoolaidIIII:
the screen is really responsive and crisp. Though lack of an active stylus means it's a bit clunky for sketching or accurate drawing.

Hello Forum,

well I guess I kinda soft bricked my OPT as I somehow managed to wipe everything (with TWRP). Of course the Device won't boot a OS, fortunately fastboot and TWRP is working but no matter how I flash a ROM (via recovery or via fastboot) no data gets written to the phone. For example if I open my phone on the computer there is only one folder, the TWRP folder.

I already tried several toolkits and fastboot images. (for example)

Any help is really appreciated :) thanks

I'm new to this forum, which is a great one. I might be selling my 8525 to a serviceman stationed in Germany.

I currently have VP3G's latest WM6 ROM on it, but I'm not sure if that's the best one to use (or is it?). I think he is using T-Mobile, but I'm not entirely sure (will find out and update this thread).

Can anyone recommend me a WM6 ROM?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] itschase:
If it were me I would load the OEM ROM and be done with the matter. This way any questions he has can be directed towards At&t, google, or his carrier and not you.

I would do that, but I did advertise it as WM6, so I can't back out on that now.

You also should inform him about the US keyboard and provide him with the keyboard fix cab for 8525. :)

**** that

I really hoped i did not buy this ****en phone

I cant even go to bootloader screen to unlock the ****en bootloader

H960a

What the **** lg ?

????
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyvr1:
Maybe it's not LGs fault at all. I suspect that those phones which cannot boot into fastboot mode were not meant to be sold in Europe but somehow found their to a European dealer. Therefore some internal flag might prevent those phones from booting into bootloader / fastboot mode.

You can get some information about your phone via the IMEI if you check it for example via this page. I tried it and got the information that the carrier of my phone, which I expect to be the original country for sale, is in fact Romania though I bought it via a german dealer.

Here some information I got about my phone:

Location Code: N
Network Code: ROM
Carrier: ROMANIA

If the information about your phone shows anything but a European country as carrier (and unlock for french phones also does not work) this could be the reason why you can't boot into bootloader/fastboot mode though you have a H960A. In that case you need to blame your dealer.

[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyvr1:
OK, but that does not necessarily mean that you can actually unlock the bootloader. If you IMEI is not registered for a European phone you will not get the unlock.bin from. LG.

[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] ElBerretin:
Alright, so I have a big problem.

It all started with me making Nova into a system app and uninstalling the native Huawei launcher (very ugly). I realized I had made a mistake when I found out I was now unable to change between launchers, even upon making Google Now launcher, which I also use, a system app as well through an app called Link2SD. Now, I backed up my /system, /data, /recovery etc with TWRP, and decided to uninstall nova and install google now into /system through ADB. I followed online guides as noted, but now the phone won't boot.

More correctly, the phone will boot, show Huawei's initial logo, then go to bootanimation, and either get stuck there or go to the "EMUI Optimizing..." screen and get stuck at 98% (It's probably since Google Now wasn't properly installed so there's no launcher to boot the phone with). I said alright, let's restore the NANDroid backup. Rebooted phone, Vol.Up key to enter recovery - only to be greeted by Huawei eRecovery, and no TWRP. This is extremely odd since I didn't do anything (I believe) that would delete TWRP.

I can't post links yet I think, but if it helps, I followed AndroidAuthority's post on installing apps as system apps, and a forum on AndroidCentral for uninstalling Nova.

There are 3 options in the recovery - Reboot (won't help, I guess), Shutdown, and "download latest version and recovery". I would normally go with this and pray for a wiped, but working Honor 5X, but I remember reading somewhere on here that you can't install a system version after you've done certain things. I can't find the specific post, but I'd rather make a post of my own and get help than try to install the stock system and get bricked.

Last thing, and the reason why I didn't reflash TWRP or something like that - my computer won't recognize the device in this recovery. All I get when I connect the device is a new partiton listed as "CD Drive (E: )" on My PC.

What can I do?
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] Hutch MD:
Have you tried holding Volume Up+Volume Down+Power (TWRP)? Or Volume Down+Power(Fastboot)? See if that gets you anywhere. Eventually as long as you can get into TWRP, you can restore.

If not, Doublecheck Device Manager in Windows to see if your computer is having trouble recognizing the device at all (yellow exclamation). Install ADB drivers if that is the case (When your phone is in fastboot, windows sometimes doesn't use that same ADB driver).
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] ElBerretin:
THANK YOU! Vol up + Down + Power did the trick for booting into TWRP. Currently copying the NANDroid backup to my honor and restoring it right away. I must ask - is there a specific reason the key combination was different this time? Is there a foolproof combo for booting into TWRP? Only phone I had rooted besides this one was a Moto G 2013, and it booted into ñTWRP without fail by pressing Vol Down+Power...
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] Hutch MD:
I couldn't tell you. This phone can be a little weird with the button combinations. For example, Volup+Power gets me into TWRP most of the time. I'm glad you are on your way back to a functional phone!
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] ElBerretin:
Yeah, I realize. When I booted to stock recovery instead of TWRP using the same button combination I always use I got worried - I didn't even know the stock recovery was still installed on the phone. Guess I'll stick with this launcher until fingerprint suppport allows me to flash a custom ROM. Thanks again!
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] Hutch MD:
I would still recommend trying out CM13. It's a huge performance boost and overall better experience. If you don't like it, you can always restore from your Nandroid backup, haha.
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] ElBerretin:
Yeah, maybe I'll try that. Do I have to wipe everything beforehand? And can I restore my /data partition after installing? I have lots of stuff in my phone and restoring/backing up by hand would be a pain... I'll still miss the fingerprint sensor, though.
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] stanley08:
Just got my Honor 5X yesterday (GR5 to be specific... KII-L21). I really want to try CM13 but i'm still lost on Huawei procedures lol. I'm familiar with Samsung and Sony as i have used those phones... Huawei, never... first time! Lol

I have neither rooted nor unlocked BL. Hoping someone helps me out so i can learn quickly and start helping others around here too :) :)
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] Hutch MD:
There are plenty of threads here. Yes, it will wipe everything on your phone. Follow the instructions from these threads.

First, you have to Unlock the Bootloader and install TWRP.

Then you flash CM13.

---------- Post added at 05:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:47 PM ----------

Yeah, you'll have to do a full wipe. It'll be okay if you're rooted - Use Titanium Backup for all of your important apps/appdata; Use SMS Backup & Restore to load up all of your recent call history and texts; Back up your photos and other stuff by hand, at least, that's what I would do. Then make a Nandroid backup after you're done flashing/setting everything back up.
