[Samsung Gear S2] thejdoe:
I know there is a thread related to this, but I never saw a solution.

My Gear S2 stock Weather app never auto-updates. Not even when I open the app. In order to update the current conditions in my city, I have to tap on the city, then scroll all the way to the bottom to the refresh button.

In the Samsung Gear app on my Galaxy S4, I have gone into the Settings>Weather settings, and I have selected to Auto Refresh every 6 hours. I have Use Current Location turned off (maybe that's my problem?).

Anyone have ideas?
[Samsung Gear S2] dersie:
Almost same issue with my Gear S.

First : location must be ON

Second : weather update only when phone screen is on. So if you use some time your phone weather is updated, otherwise weather can stay 10H without update if you do not use your phone :(
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] jonny_blagwind:
Anyone else experiencing lag on their g5 mine continually struggles to wake sometime needing a good thirty seconds to spring to life?

Also the you tube app continually stutters and freezes up the phone whether connected to fibre broadband or 4g?
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] ryanpm40:
Yes, I actually made a solution for it in the Questions forum, but nobody else seemed to have the issue or care. I found that the wake lag occurs when you try to wake too soon after locking.

I found a very strange solution, but it works: Everytime your phone turns on from being off, you must change your lockscreen wallpaper. This can be to anything. You can even set the same one again. This process has to be repeated at every boot, but it completely solved the issue on my Verizon G5.

To test it out, just lock your screen and double tap to unlock immediately. Shouldn't be lag.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] jonny_blagwind:
Have you also had the problem with the you tube app? I'm Also finding a lot of other apps crash resulting in an error report and restart of the app?
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] ryanpm40:
No I haven't, sorry! You may need a factory reset or could have downloaded a bad app, not totally sure.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grentuu:
Up until 3pm today I had an M8 which I have had from new, but got the chance to upgrade to a mint condition M9 for £30 so took the chance. (I do have the opportunity to change back if I want to)

All is good except for one thing. The battery. When it is on I can literally watch the power % drop. It's UK, Sense 7 MM 6.0 Base 3.335.401.12

Battstats just show screen and google services taking the majority.

Checked screen off stats, no issues there. Turned brightness to auto but still no joy.

Am I missing something?

btw, took the chance to upgrade the M8 as it needed constant recharging during the day.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grentuu:
Update:

I charged it to 100%. Did a couple of bits and pieces and then left it screen on with nothing open.

Only thing open was Wifi on and screen on auto brightness.

After exactly one hour it had gone from 98% to 87%.

When I checked power stats all it showed in terms of apps was Google app 100%???

Information​

Rooting this device is actually quite a simple and easy process. Before you begin, it is recommended that you at least try to understand what each part of the process will do. Although this guide will elongate each step in order to show all of the details, the method used can be broken up into 3 main steps: Unlocking the Bootloader, Installing a Custom Recovery and finally Rooting. Each new step relies on the previous step to have been completed, and a basic summary of each part is:

Unlocking Bootloader: Opens the door to the internal memory of the device to be written on to. This allows you to flash images onto the main partitions of the phone.

Installing a Custom Recovery: A custom recovery is flashed onto the recovery partition of the device and overwrites the stock recovery that exists by default. Custom recoveries bring lots of functionality and give you the ability to perform wipes, install flashable zips, create full backups of your NAND (Nandroid backup), and various other features. An unlocked bootloader is needed to install a custom recovery.

Rooting: You can gain root by either flashing via recovery a pre-rooted custom rom, or flashing a zip containing the SuperSU binaries. A custom recovery is necessary to do this.

After completing these steps your phone will be rooted, the phone will have a custom recovery installed, and the phones bootloader will be unlocked. This, in our opinion, is the most practical and beneficial method for rooting your phone. It gives you some basic adb/fastboot knowledge, and should hopefully help you have a decent understanding of what is going on. Also this method will work regardless of what android version your phone has.

If you are confused by anything in this guide, we would highly suggest getting it clarified being before moving on. Ask your question in this thread and we or someone else will likely answer. Also we would suggest that you read over the whole thread a few times before actually doing anything to the phone.

Understood? Good...let's begin
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Naman Bhalla:
Setup, Preparation and Prerequisites​

Basic tasks that may be referred to throughout this guide:

Open command prompt - Press Shift + Right Click anywhere on the screen and select Open Command Window here/

Enter fastboot mode- Turn the phone off. Hold volume up + power until the "fastboot" screen appears. [Alternatively, if Advanced Reboot is enabled, you can press Reboot -> Bootloader from the power menu.]

Enter recovery mode - Turn the phone off. Hold volume down + power until the "OnePlus Logo" screen appears. [Alternatively, if Advanced Reboot is enabled, you can press Reboot -> Recovery from the power menu.]

ADB and Fastboot Installation​

1. Download the ADB For Windows from here :- https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B0MKgCbUM0itNVB1elljU2NPR0k

2. Run the .exe file downloaded from above as Administrator.

3. Press 'Y' every time the installer asks for.

4. Continue Driver Installation.

Now,ADB and Fastboot have been installed on your PC. Great !

Some Important Things​

Show File Extensions - Open a command prompt window and run "Control folders" (without the quotes). Go to the View tab and uncheck the "Hide extensions for known file types" option. This will help avoid confusion when renaming files.

Battery - Ensure that your phone has at least 60% battery remaining, and that your PC is plugged in and wont shut down spontaneously during the process. The procedure doesn't take very long , but its best to have enough charge in case something goes wrong.

Backup (Optional) - Unlocking the bootloader will/should completely wipe all data from the device. This includes apps, settings and even the contents of the internal sdcard (pictures, music, etc.). Copy all important files off the phone onto a PC or upload them to a cloud.

Downloads

Download a custom recovery and the SuperSU zip below. Place both files on the desktop.

TWRP:

TWRP

Root:

SuperSU​
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Naman Bhalla:
USB Debugging - On your phone go to Settings > About phone > Tap on Build number 7 times. This will enable Developer options. Now go back to Settings > Developer options > Enable USB debugging

Enable OEM Unlocking - On your phone go to Settings > Developer options. Then enable the 'OEM Unlocking' option. Also,a free advice, make sure that from now on,OEM unlocking option is enabled before you reboot. Sometimes,it might get disabled itself.

Enable Advanced Reboot - On your phone go to Settings > Developer options. Then enable the 'Advanced Reboot' option.

1. Unlocking Bootloader

Turn the phone off. Then boot it into fastboot mode by holding volume up + power. The phone will display "fastboot" text indicating that it has successfully entered fastboot mode.

Plug the phone into your PC, then open a command prompt window on the desktop (Shift + Right Click -> Open Command Window here) and type :-

fastboot devices

This command will list the connected devices. If your phones serial number shows up you are good to go and may continue. If the phone is NOT listed this indicates that your drivers are not installed correctly. In order for you to continue you must fix your drivers so that your phone is listed under fastboot devices.

If the phone has been recognized by the command above, proceed to unlocking the bootloader with the following command: Remember that this step will/should wipe EVERYTHING off the phone

fastboot oem unlock

After the above command has finished excuting, run the following

fastboot reboot

Now, your phone will reboot. Continue to the next step to install Custom Recovery ...
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Naman Bhalla:
Wait until the phone has fully booted up into android, then adjust the following settings on the phone:

USB Debugging - On your phone go to Settings > About phone > Tap on Build number 7 times. This will enable Developer options. Now go back to Settings > Developer options > Enable USB debugging

Enable OEM Unlocking - On your phone go to Settings > Developer options. Then enable the 'OEM Unlocking' option. Also,a free advice, make sure that from now on,OEM unlocking option is enabled before you reboot. Sometimes,it might get disabled itself. [Most probabaly,it will already be enabled as you did it above.Then,NO NEED to disable and enable it.]

Enable Advanced Reboot - On your phone go to Settings > Developer options. Then enable the 'Advanced Reboot' option.

2. Flashing TWRP

Turn the phone off. Then boot it into fastboot mode by holding volume up + power.

Rename the recovery file that you downloaded above to recovery.img. *Make sure that you rename it to recovery.img NOT recovery.img.img* ,Make sure that this file is placed on the desktop.

Open a new command prompt on desktop and run the following commands:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Once the flash has completed, Don't use the "Fastboot Reboot" Command Instead Unplug Your phone then Manually boot it into recovery by keeping Power + Volume Down button pressed.

In TWRP, select Reboot and then select System. Now your phone will boot into System and you have cleared Steps 2/3 . Grats.

So, now, time has come to do what we want to achieve through all this. The 'ROOT' . Keep following .

But,before that, take a Nandroid Backup.

3. Making a Nandroid Backup

Warning: before you make a backup with TWRP you must remove all lockscreen security. If you do not do this you will not be able to unlock your device after restoring your backup (entering your pin will result in an "incorrect pin" message), you'll be forced to perform a factory reset to boot into Android. To remove lockscreen security go to Settings>Security>Screen Lock and set it to swipe/none.

A Nandroid Backup is a very important thing to have before installing any custom software on your device. It's basically a backup of your stock system that you can fall back on if anything goes wrong or if you just want your stock ROM back. You can also use Nandroid Bckup to create a backup of your favorite ROM set up exactly the way you like it. The backup you create can be easily restored using the restore tool in TWRP recovery.

Boot into TWRP Recovery .

Go to Backup Menu and select all the listed partitions.

Swipe to take Backup. The process will take some time.

Reboot

Now, let us continue to rooting !

[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Naman Bhalla:
A kernel with dm verity disabled can be flashed. None for now. Will try to get one soon.

[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] UnnamedFile:
And opening the bootloader probably disables the possibility of getting OTA updates as well? Could it be rooted without opening the bootloader, so OTA updates can still be obtained?
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Naman Bhalla:
Yes. It is because of dm verity
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Naman Bhalla:
BTW You guys rooted from this guide ? Because, ideally, it should disable dm verity.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] lensgrabber:
I don't guess you can do a "fastboot boot recovery.img" like on Nexus devices? I'd like to keep stock recovery but will flash twrp if that's the only option once the stock images are available.

Nope, I just tried:

You can flash ROMs on encrypted devices. Just make sure you don't have ask PIN on boot enabled.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] uncommonaman:
Still do you recommend decrypting the phone? My data is going to be wiped for bootloader unlock so don't mind decrypting if it's worth it?

Can you point me to the settings for ask PIN on boot? I don't see such thing on security and fingerprints settings.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Naman Bhalla:
I don't recommend decrypting the phone.

When you set up a screen lock, it asks you if you want it to be asked before boot.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] uncommonaman:
Thanks. Disabled secure startup. I guess on previous versions of twrp didn't support encryption that's why old xda posts are suggesting to decrypt before flashing.

Never relocation the bootloader. It can cause a lot of issues. To update to 3.2.2, just flash full 3.2.2 Zip found on my mirrors thread.

Hey guys,

Just got my OP3 today, and am having trouble completing the tutorial. The boot loader unlocked okay, but when I try and flash TWRP it appears to work on the command line (writes successfully), but rebooting just brings up the stock recovery.

Any thoughts on how I can get past this? I don't have the startup pin enabled.

Never mind, I fixed it.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] sabitsubin:
can anyone tell me...if u unlocked bootloader root ur phone installed twrp then went back to stock and stock recovery with unlocked bootloader,wont u be able to install ota normally?I tried a lot but it says "installation failed"...but I flashed the whole rom by twrp and it installed fine...but I really want the ota feature since I am planning to use stock non rooted....anyone has any idea regarding why am I failing...?

I am on stock recovery now with bootloader unlocked...I also tried relocking bootloader,reseting the phone,downgrading to oxygenos 3.1.2 and everything...nothing worked...so,does rooting disables the OTA feature permanently?and also is there any way to get the OTA to install the updates directly again?
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Scorqy:
Hey i have some newbie questions to the OP3:

When i unlock bootloader, install custom recovery and getting root with a fresh out of box device. Will it be encrypted after that still or? And everytime i backup,update OOS or flash a custom rom I'll just have to set off screen lock (PIN, fingerprint etc.)? And do i stay encrypted on the device even if i clean flash (like full wipe and install)?

Or i will have to lock the bootloader again?

How did you fix this? I'm having that same issue of it booting into stock recovery.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] danlocke123:
I made a stupid mistake- I kept seeing the warning screen about having the bootloader unlocked when rebooting into recovery and assuming it hadn't flashed (d'oh). Sorry if that's no help to you.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] milespro:
No worries. it seems like it's just a bit finicky. I kept powering off and booting into recovery with the vol down and power button and it wouldn't work. eventually i just went into fastboot and selected boot into recovery and that took me to TWRP.

Return to stock?

What do I do to return to full stock?
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] sadpwner:
Followed instructions exactly and can't get fastboot devices to work. It just does nothing.

I swapped computers and it worked. It seems the adb driver won't install on my main computer.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Hw4ng3r:
If you unlock bootloader and install TWRP with a custom rom/root, yes you will need stock recovery and stock OOS rom to return to full stock.

If you just unlock your bootloader with no custom recovery install (TWRP) and no root, your phone will be eligible for OTA updates (Not sure why you'd bother unlocking bootloader if you're not planning on rooting/custom recovery/rom). The only thing is anytime you reboot your device, you will get a message on boot "Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted" warning.

---------- Post added at 10:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:34 AM ----------

Need to flash full OOS stock rom (don't forget to wipe dalvik, cache, and data partitions); I believe the full stock recovery will also be flashed with this, but if it isn't, just need to flash the stock recovery.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Fernix_:
If I flash a rom with root instead of supersu, there is a chance that the EFS partition gets corrupted right? I'm sorry if I spelled something wrong, English is not my native language ;)
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Hw4ng3r:
I believe EFS is generally well protected. I've been flashing roms and supersu from TWRP/CWM for a decade on 3 different phones and I've never once had a single issue with the EFS. As long as you make sure the rom, gapps, and anything you are flashing is for "your device" with matching checksums, there should not be any surprises.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Joshmccullough:
Just ordered a OP3 this morning, can't wait to get it.....I'm trying to parse together all the information in this thread, but I just want to make sure I'm on the right track, so quick question:

If I open up the box, plug my phone into my computer, and boot it up for the first time, at what point do I have to make sure I don't enable a PIN for the encryption so I don't screw something up when trying to unlock the bootloader/follow the rest of this guide? Is there an obvious 'put in a PIN for encryption' setting or screen or something that's obviously different than the setting for setting a lockscreen PIN?
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] hasta_guy:
Since its new, dont setup any fingerprint or password till the time u root. That's what I did yesterday when I got it.

I bought a OnePlus 3 from Swappa. It is unlocked but not rooted or TWRP installed. I followed the instructions to install TWRP, rebooted the phone into recovery. It booted into the factory recovery, then TWRP and I was able to make a nandroid backup.

At this point it went awry... I was unable to install the SuperSu img file after several tries, plus, when booting into recovery I was only able to get the factory recovery.

No problems doing this on the two previous OPOs I have, so there must obviously be something I am doing wrong with this one.

Fastboot Devices connects with my device number but after that, no success.

[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] zulu657:
This is beyond bizarre! After trying everything I tried in a previous post, I deleted and re-installed the adb drivers.

I followed the instructions in the OP to the letter to install TWRP. Rebooted the phone into TWRP, did a nandroid backup, rebooted system, all fine.

Then I powered the phone off and booted into TWRP. Here it went bad--- booted into the factory recovery. For some reason I can't seem to make TWRP stick; it works only once, then I have to reinstall it to use it again.

But Wait, There's More! When I try to copy SuperSU to the phone, I get a message that the device has stopped responding or has been disconnected.

Is there a fix for this or something I am not doing or doing wrong?? I believe I need help here.
