[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zorachus:
I just got my brand new Aluminum Nexus 6P last night, I wanted to test out the new Developer Preview #4 right away, so enrolled in the program and got the OTA update which I took, and rebooted running Android N, looks pretty neat, and nice tweaks, and some new features. But I always like to run Rooted and install custom ROM's, but Root is #1 for me.

Ok so I need a little help, I am following the excellent video by Rootjunky ( thank you ), and got through the unlocked bootloader part easily, and now installed TWRP Recovery easily too, but upon first time booting into TWRP, it's just sitting at the Blue and Gray teamwin screen, and not doing anything else, it's not actually entering into the Recovery, to see the list of options, etc...

I powered the device down, and started up again in Fastboot mode, then chose Recovery, and does the same again, just sits at the blue gray colored teamwin screen, and does nothing.

What happened ?

UPDATE:

I powered the device down / off. Then started up again, it went and booted up, to the fresh clean Android N DP 4. But I am not rooted at all yet, due not being able to fully enter Recovery and flash the SuperSU zip yet.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rohit25:
The issue is because of encryption... you would need to run fastboot format userdata... and then flash twrp... you would then be able to use it... p.s use the latest twrp version

SENT... isn't that enough
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zorachus:
Can you spell that out a little bit for me please ?

So right now I am on the Android N beta 4, I have an unlocked bootloader, and TWRP not booting up for me, so do I need to restart the whole rooting and Recovery method all over again ? I do have a modified boot.img from another thread here dated 06-15, but at what point am I supposed to run the command for format data ? And what is the exact correct sentence and spelling of that command I should enter ?

Download Wugfresh Toolkit. It'll carry you through the process with no problem.

Best part, a Nexus is hard to brick. ?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zorachus:
Wow thanks, but never heard of this thing before. Is it like a all-in-one root kit, that does it all for you ? I have normally followed the YouTube videos on how to do it the long way with command prompt and pushing files to the phone, etc...

Silly question, but with this toolkit, is this something I download and install on the phone itself, or run through my PC ?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlimSnoopOS:
Could you stop posting the same question in multiple threads? It's inconsiderate of people's time.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zorachus:
Holy crap, that Nexus Root Toolkit, is like something from Star Trek future. Did Commander Data write this amazing program ? UNBELIEVABLY FANTASTIC PROGRAM.

I was just on the stock phone, not rooted or TWRP or anything, I then install this nexus Toolkit, run the program, and it totally rooted and installed custom TWRP Recovery on my phone, while still being on the Android N 4 preview. I am blown away at how it did all of this, in like 5 minutes.

Couple questions please;

- Android N doesn't have Xposed, so that kind of sucks, but totally expected with this being a beta preview obviously.

- Seems like some root programs not even working, like my classic AdAway, is that due to this being N ?

- How hard is it to revert back to a MM ROM ? Let's say I want to install Pure Nexus ROM, which is already on my SD Card, can I just boot into TWRP Recovery, wipe system, and flash Pure Nexus + GAPPS and reboot ? Or do I need to do something special first to downgrade to MM coming from N now ?

It's a "must" for a feature phone...it's a "meh" for a WM PDA phone.

Well, let's agree to differ :)

Pretty good

I've never thought much of it before but this is actually okay. It's good to see the whole web page. I think it loads some pages faster than IE.

I can drag scroll (sort-of). Text entry a bit of a pain with the menus etc.

Thanks for letting us know.
[General Topics] JETninja:
Just installed it on my 8525 (it told me I had a HTC 8500 and that it had no java...LOL!) and it works fine. I need to learn some details, but pretty cool in my limited playing with it.
[General Topics] ndcart:
LMAO! Mine did the exact same thing. I just goot figure out some of the functions though, but so far so good.
[General Topics] E_Shinobi:
clearly beats picsel browser and ie. actually, the automatic zoom and auto-align of the text make it much more comfortable to read long pages. and its about ten times faster than (at least my) ie and two than picsel.

also, i always hated the degenerated view of the content while scrolling in picsel. opera has managed that very well.
[General Topics] apap:
adjusting font boldness

I am using Opera Mini beta 3 with Esmertec on the Athena which has a large screen and the font is very thin and can be hard to read.

The settings allow font size but not thickness changes. Does anyone know if there is a way (via registry) to alter the font thickness? I know you can on Tao but have not figured out if you can for Esmertec.

Thanks,
[General Topics] Menneisyys:
To my knowledge, impossible, except for TAO.

However, as the largest fonts now also support Bold, you can safely use it without losing a lot of additional info (coming from the lack of Bold).

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] I7210I:
I'm thinking about replacing the battery in my nexus 5 with a new one.

Looking on eBay, it seems like there are hundreds of sellers selling supposedly genuine LG BL-T9 batteries for around $10-15.

Does anyone have recommendations for reputable sellers who's selling the genuine batteries and not knockoffs or old stock batteries that have been sitting for a long time? It would be pretty disappointing to go through the effort of swapping batteries only to end up with a subpar battery.

thank you

Hi, my device is and d850, It works only in 2g. I´ve flashed a QCN who sahred in xda and with NV Manager could write my IMEI, after reboot phone, it connected 4g but only for a few moments... now only works in 2g again and it could not reconnect 4g/3g again.

Then I have flashed another QCN from google and now this works at least in H, but it doesn´t work 4g.

Do you know any solution ? Thank you very much

Hi Robert. Thanks a lot for sharing this fix. I've been searching for solution for my LG G3 for almost a year now. I got a signal now. Wow! I can use now my phone for calls and data. I bought this online as well, with the service disabled condition.

The error i got yesterday on flashing the D850 rom is that I have written D855v on the hex editor, but it should only be D855.

Once again, thanks a lot. Cheers!!!

[G3 General] Robert LG:
I think,that you can't use this method.If you flash D850 tot file for your D855 board ,your device will boot only in fastboot mode or it will be bricked .Try to restore a "qcn"from a working D855.

D855 16GB

Hi. Once again I'm thankful for Robert for sharing this fix. I was able to fix my frankenstein D850 with D855 cover by following his method. Recently I bought another D855 16GB MM rom that has auto reset issue. I was able to fix that by buying a new batt. While I was using it, I installed several sw which corrupted the EFS :confused: IMEI became 0. I have installed TWRP but unfortunately I wasn't able to back it up. I am confident that I can still fix it. What's good with LG roms is as long as you can put it in a download mode, you can still flash and reflash roms. I don't have a D855 16GB rom at that time, so I tried the standard 32GB LP. It was flashed but I wasn't able to fix the IMEI with QPST, phone isn't recognized. So I downloaded the correct rom, which is for the Euro Common D855 16GB rom. After reflashing, I then again tried the QPST and followed steps in recovering the IMEI. I wasn't able to fix it in the first try, because a new problem came up, the screen is fading, so maybe, It wasn't able to save the IMEI. I have turned off the phone and removed the batt, I read that the cause of this screen fading is due to processors overheating. Once I turned it back on after a few hours, I retried the IMEI recovery process, and it worked. I got the IMEI back, I got data again. :)

But the sad part now is the screen is fading... :crying:

[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] prvnp:
I am having SAMSUNG GALAXY A7 (2015) with Stock Firmware (Indian version), android Lolipop (5.0.2)

I am a photography enthusiast, but months after buying the phone, I realized that IT DOES NOT HAVE ANY SETTINGS FOR ADJUSTING THE SHUTTER SPEED OF CAMERA, or MANUAL FOCUS, etc.

I read somewhere that various camera controls are not present because Samsung do not use camera2API in their source code.

How can I solve this thing?? I tried N number of apps which offer manual controls, but none of them worked.

I am thinking about rooting the device and go for any CM ROM, but don't know whether changing the ROM will help or not.

Need help to use this feature on my Galaxy A7. If it is possible on stock ROM somehow, it would be better. But if it is possible using any other ROM, do let me know.

Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dwibbles33:
I've done a bunch of searching and looking at ROMs and now I'm here asking if anyone knows how to get my Nexus 6 to poll for nfc while the screen is off. I use Golf Tags that allow me to tap an nfc sticker to my phone in my pocket to track shots. However the current implementation requires me to basically not lock the phone and to have my screen on in my pocket with a "custom" lock screen. It's not a terrible solution but this would be better. I've looked through ROMs but unless the feature lists are actually up to date I'd have to install 100 ROMs just to see if they have this feature, which I can't do.

I've seen posts on hacking it in yourself but I'm hoping someone here has done it, feels like doing it, or knows of a ROM that already supports it. Thanks in advance!
[XDA Assist] nirmalmraj:
I own a Lenovo A3500 -HV. I have been using it for an year now and it is running KitKat(4.4.2). There is no sign of a newer OS coming to this tab so I have decided to install a new ROM. I decided to go with CynanogenMod but the problem is my device is not listed in the supported devices directory.

I think my device has the minimum requirements to run the OS.

I would like to know if it will be better to install the CyanogenMod or just leave it with kitkat or maybe install some other mods that my tab can support?

[Nexus 5 General] kicksilver:
So, it's quite possible that our much beloved Nexus 5 doesn't receive final Android N, afterall.

In that case, I was wondering it anyone would be interested in providing a custom N build, with no changes, compared to Google's own build.

I mean, ODEX, non-zipaligned, no root, nothing. Just stock like stock Google software.

I'd pay for this.

Is it possible for someone to create a ZIP that can be sideloaded in the default recovery?
[Nexus 5 General] kilavuzcu:
Me either. Still can't believe Google is not showing any love to Nexus 5 anymore.
[Nexus 5 General] jsgraphicart:
When the final release is out, it's pretty safe to say that someone will make a build for the Nexus 5. Until then, there is nothing devs can do right now. Google currently doesn't have everything available to do so.
[Nexus 5 General] kicksilver:
Yes, I know.

I'm talking about the future, after N is uploaded to AOSP.

I know there will be lots of ROMs, but I just wanted stock Google software, no root, theme, anything.

Basically, an unofficial Google OTA.

I'm willing to pay for this, and I can gather many people to join this cause.
[Nexus 5 General] Salo-S:
probably Google will release android N to Nexus 5, but its the last official release to it. Just like Nexus 4 on Lollipop era, was pretty the same thing.
[Nexus 5 General] MJHawaii:
How is that surprising they want you to buy the next device so if they drop support look at it this way you can always install a ROM and I'm confident you will see something up fast
[Nexus 5 General] marcomarinho:
Nop, Google won't release the Android N for Nexus 5, as they dropped the support for newer releases in October 2015. But of course that as soon as the source code is out we'll get the update because the devs will take care of that :)
[Nexus 5 General] tweaked:
Since you aren't clairvoyant I'll wait to see. The N7 2013 got MM but if you go by the date listed on googles site they stoped officially supporting it in July of 2015. And if not, eh.. There will be tons of N roms once its released. Most likely day one.
[Nexus 5 General] marcomarinho:
True though xD

Looks like afterwards I have reason ;)
[Nexus 5 General] kicksilver:
We all know there will be lots of ROMs.

But the purpose of this thread, is to get to know if any developer would like to provide a stock "Google" equivalent, for those that want their N5 to feel like it's been updated by Google itself.
[Nexus 5 General] Dark_Eyes_:
I'll sure try, especially if there is money on the line lol :p :p :p

I won't make any promises, but I'll gladly take a look when the source gets out if I still have the device.
[Nexus 5 General] kicksilver:
I've been reading stuff on Reddit, and many people would appreciate this "Google experience" ROM.
[Nexus 5 General] ast00:
http://www.xda-developers.com/google-publishes-end-of-life-for-nexus-devices/

It's officially over for us. It's up to the devs now.
[Nexus 5 General] Mr.FREE_Bird:
No it is not officially over, nothing on that page confirms it is officially over. Only the ''Guaranteed" support is over for the Nexus 5.

That doesn't mean it won't get Android N, I think the chance for a official release of Android N for the N5 is really small but there's still a chance it will get it.

Till the final release of Android N is out no one knows anything for sure if it comes to the future of the N5.
[Nexus 5 General] Citizen_Snips:
Isn't this Vomer's thing? He still around on the N5?
[Nexus 5 General] kicksilver:
Don't know this guy.

But whoever is willing to do this, I could gather some people to pay for it.
[Nexus 5 General] Citizen_Snips:
I know he used to do it for the N5, pretty sure I've seen his builds for a few other phones as well. That was his thing. When a new Android OS comes out he usually releases a stock / AOSP build. Non rooted, no mods, etc. I'm not sure if he's still around though, but it can't hurt to ask.

[MENTION=1363323]vomer[/MENTION]
[Nexus 5 General] jsgraphicart:
Looking at the history of ROMs in the past here on XDA, there is usually always someone who ports a pure AOSP build with no mods. I wouldn't worry about it much. Especially this early.
[Nexus 5 General] kicksilver:
I hope so.

Not really into modding/rooting/whatnot.

A stock Google-ish ROM for me, and I'll be happy.
[Nexus 5 General] Xperia U Lover:
Dont worry man.. Nexus 5 is still pretty popular phone and dev friendly so IMHO you shouldn't be worried at all.. There is i believe 99% chance u will have Android n, just be patient for a couple of months when the Android n will be officially released :)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+] JDinAZ74:
Did you ever get this figured out? My guess is it has something to do with not being connected to t-mobile home network. The fact you can get to download mode & Odin sees your phone should mean all hope is not lost yet on recovering your files and getting it working again.

Twrp isn't going to work unless you had root installed with the USB debugging & oem unlock option turned on in developer mode.

Maybe try asking in some of the other s6 forums. There's a lot of knowledgeable people here & I'm sure someone knows how to fix this.

Goodluck, I hope you get it figured out, I know how frustrating it can be.
