[Zenfone 2 Laser General] quicksilver53:
I'm not sure if this works with an unlocked bootloader or not. But I would go to Asus website and download the MM update if it is listed now on your PC. Then plug in your phone and place the update in the root of your internal storage. Do not put in a folder. I use ES file explorer. After you unplug your phone, a short while later you should get a notification of an available update. Install the update. It will take a while. My beta MM on my ZE551ML took almost 20 minutes.

I just realized that you have twrp recovery. You will have to download the last official update of LP and extract the recovery and flash it first. I think this should work. There is a post on this forum telling how to do this.
[Zenfone 2 Laser General] pjl3dm:
Thanks friend, I was really looking a post like this, the problem is I have no idea how to get the stock recovery as I'm already on TWRP. Is there a guide on how to get the stock recovery on the official firmware zip download?
[Zenfone 2 Laser General] SoNic67:
You need to flash the stock recovery back. Can be done with the TWRP.
[Zenfone 2 Laser General] long2ski:
Has anyone with unlocked bootloader tried sideloading the firmware from the Asus Selfie site? I still have stock recovery but am nervous about using firmware that is not specifically ze551kl (not posted in Asus site yet).
[Zenfone 2 Laser General] mysteryincninja:
I have similar issues with my phone.. the zenfone 2 laser ze551kl with unlocked bootloader and manual firmware updates.. I am currently using firmware Version WW-21.40.1220.1615(andriod M) and so far only having one annoying issue with a popup notification that keeps telling me to enable device protection, because the old version of protection is void, and to go to settings>account.. and removing my google account, and that it would activate the new version when I add the same -aka- preferred google account back to the account area. Which hasn't worked to fix any of that issue, no matter how many times I try or what I have try that is different... Which is why I am hoping that by going up to the next version might fix that problem some how... But at the moment the only thing official on the asus page is the kernel source code for the new firmware update, which hasn't been released to download as an official firmware update yet, well at least not for people like me that don't know what the heck to do with a source code, except maybe use it as an example to try and learn from. -- asus .com/us/Phone/ZenFone-2-Laser-ZE551KL/HelpDesk_Download/.

Selling apps on Google Play Store for developers from "unsupported countries"

Hi,

I would like to ask if anyone knows some companies that offer possibility of selling apps on Google Play Store on a behalf of a developer whose country is not supported by Google's Play Merchant system. Basically, the agents/companies should offer opening accounts on Google Play on a behalf of a developer.

Thanks.

Hello Everyone!

As an EE customer I would like to take advantage of their "Wi-Fi calling" feature on my S5 (G-900F), however that requires EE branded firmware.

My question is, would I be able to flash EE firmware onto a stock BTU firmware via Odin3, without any issues?

Thanks in advance :)
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slugger09:
I wouldn't, it can be done but they have a major issue with memory leak on Wifi calling which they have not fixed so your device storage fills up very quickly with no option to clear it, the only solution is to factory reset the device. Google S5 IPsec
[XDA Assist] powersmo:
Hey all. New to the forums and looking for your experienced advice. My son has a Blu Life One X 2016 which he forgot was in his swim trunks and ended up in the river with him for about 2 minutes. He and his friends took it right away and put it in a bag of rice where it sat for 3 days. After taking it out, it wouldn't boot so we put it on the charger for about 3 hours to see if the battery was just dead. It seemed to charge it because the red charge light turned green as usual but it still wouldn't boot. However, now it will periodically start beeping and vibrating like it is on vibrate or silent mode. I kind of figure it can't be recovered even by changing out the motherboard and battery but I am really curious why the beeps and vibrating. Any thoughts??

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anartic:
Hello XDA,

It's been awhile since I've made a post, but I'm very unsure about what I'm trying to do.

I have a T-Mobile HTC One S, about 4 years old, that has a damaged display, but I am trying to do a backup to pull out photos and whatnot that I had on the phone before I broke it.

My question is, is there a way for me to do a backup of the whole Android OS and whatever file there is on the phone to emulate it on my Windows PC?

Now for what I've done so far with a bit of back story. The phone broke about 4 years ago when I dropped it and damaged the display and I never got around to fixing it or trying to do a blind backup through the recovery until a few days ago.

I had a friend replace the screen and the phone booted up, except it was soft bricked and was stuck at the splash screen. I was able to get into the recovery and tried to mount the phone to my computer, but it wouldn't let me and I've forgotten what the error message was.

My problem now, is that I've dropped the phone again and the display is broken yet again, but I was curious if I could extract every single file out of the phone and use an emulator so that I can try and get back into it.

Thank you

Edit: I forgot to mention that the phone is rooted. I don't remember what ROM I used, but the phone does have clockwork mod recovery. My big thing is wanting to know what commands to use to create a backup from adb and what directories to point it at.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
This would only be possible with a custom recovery. If you don't have one (and I would assume you don't since you did not mention it already), then there's nothing you can do to recover data as the method to install the custom recovery involves 1) being able to see the display to do some things 2) wipes the phone.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anartic:
It's using a very old version of clockword mod for recovery. I did forget to mention that the phone is rooted though, and I'll make sure to add this tidbit into the original post.

European models (as in, models meant for the European market) can be unlocked. Fair warning though - many shops import from outside of EU for lower prices. So usually if you find a deal too good to believe... It is not an EU model, thus you won't be able to unlock it.

[Desire 820 General] #Amin:
Hi!

i have this HTC Desire 820u device that had some problems and needed a system flash.

when i dug into flashing it , i realized that actually no flash tool actually works with my phone! any efforts to flash this devices was a waste of time.

but one day i came up with a simple solution! using others TWRP Backups!! I managed to find a kitkat backup but it cannot be updated to 5 or 6 since the rom is not exactly made for my device. so if anybody could give me a backup i would appreciate the help:crying:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dutchguy:
Hi, I am looking for a program that refreshes the GSM network automatically. I have a T-Mobile MDA III, but it has a problem: sometimes when I do not use the phone for a while (a day or so), I cannot be called, but when I call myself or refresh the GSM network, I can be called.

If someone could make a program (maybe something already exists?) that refreshes the GSM network each hour or so, that would be great.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] cduijker:
or just upgrade to a newer radio rom and those problems are over...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dutchguy:
That would be nice, but I'm already using the latest rom (02.98.90).
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Chatty:
What do you mean by refresh? Going into flightmode and immediate return? There are already a lot of event driven software... most probably even one offers right that.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dutchguy:
Yes, going to flightmode and back would probably be enough. The problem would be that I would have to reenter my pincode (or the program would have to do that too). Which program could do that (each hour or so)?
[Greenify] TNSMANI:
Why don't you use the beta which also has motion sensing prevention in addition to AD?
[Greenify] leap_ahead:
i will try
[Greenify] Hedied4me:
Yes I am also seeing this. Its weird because im my device forum people using the same rom have AD feature listed while others (myself included) are not seeing even the area option to turn on AD even with.xPosed and Greenify paid app while in boost mode. Nevertheless Ill try the beta. Is 2.9 beta 2 the current version?
[Greenify] aidy.lucas:
Need to enable it with two adb commands and use beta version of greenify gonna try it out myself I think while I'm still not rooted.

You can use the current 2.9 version which is the final one, not beta.

Enabled agressesive doze+doze on the go today via adb, vast improvement in stand by now doze kicks in in minutes instead of hours.
[Greenify] leap_ahead:
you check for any wakelock ?? because with xperia xa ROM not support AD ,,,so the oasisfeng say : even if doze is disabled in ROM, Greenify can still activate doze mode after DUMP permission is granted manually via USB-connected computer. Beware, this may break things since the ROM is not made to be compatible with Doze.

with this Xperia Xa not support this ,, I check with my galaxy s4 and can activate Ad without the permission ..so maybe you will get some problem ..
[Greenify] aidy.lucas:
Working perfectly fine here on my xa totally stock as yet unrooted.
[Greenify] leap_ahead:
alarm , is work ?
[Greenify] aidy.lucas:
As far as I know yes and from reading through the greenify threads regarding aggressive doze and doze on the go as long as the clock app is NOT optimised it should still go off with the stock clock app, if it doesn't go off in the morning I'll let you know.
[Greenify] leap_ahead:
I mean u get the alarm in time you set ?

I don't think u need to put it in not optimized...
[Greenify] aidy.lucas:
Alarm went off just fine this morning , if your alarm didn't go off it's cause it needs to be in the NOT OPTIMISED(always running) list not the optimised(stops when doze start/screen goes off) one that's why it didn't go off. Anything in the not optimised list will always be running. The optimised list is for apps you want killed I was confused at first I had to read up on Google developers website about doze. this aggressive doze and doze on the go has made a world of difference. It should be like this out of the box.
[Greenify] TNSMANI:
If you have the Google clock, it will work whether it is optimized or not optimized for battery. In fact, all clock apps should work like that, if they have been made compatible to 6.0.1 and Doze. If it doesn't, it means that the app is not compatible. That has to be taken up with the app's developer as stated by Google.

is sony clock :P

[Galaxy Tab S2 General] AB__CD:
so far it is exactly what I expected - GS7 software on a tablet. Great battery and none of the performance issues the first gen Tab S had when first receiving Lollipop.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] AaronRX:
Actually, battery life became worse on this update. I lose 1% of battery life in under 3 minutes without doing anything, my tab was just idle in the home screen.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] AB__CD:
That's fairly standard I'd say.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] AaronRX:
But that didn't happen when I was still running Lollipop :/
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] GrandMasterPlank:
I've noticed the battery drain too. It's not way worse, but it is slightly quicker at getting rid of charge. Has anyone noticed any other genuine changes? Apart from the lighter colour to the drop-down menu it seems basically identical.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] AaronRX:
Battery definitely drains faster in this update. It would take me 7-10mins for me to lose 1% of battery life in Lollipop. But now it would take me 3-5mins to lose 1% of battery life. I'm considering right now to go back to Lollipop to be honest, I can't stand this battery performance.

Other changes I've seen was the boot, it uses the S7 boot animation and there wasn't a boot startup sound.

I upgraded from nexus 7 to the T715Y galaxy tab s2 8". Solid device, battery performance less than optimal, software updates non existant. The nexus still gets monthly security patching and got the android 6 OTA update in short order. Now 18 July and despite indonesia, panama, phillipines and other neighbours in asia having this update, still no word from Samsung. Tried Kies, side sync and OTA update button mashing... nothing.

In fact Kies said there was an update, which i installed, wiping my tablet to get .. you guessed it, the same darn version i had. 5.0.2. Would recommend the tablet if not for the lack of security and software updates.

I'm not new on the forum but it was a long time i logged into the system.

I have some questions how i get the orginal stock rom for my phone. Last year my collegue update and flashed my phone with a good rom but now i can't update anymore. So i decided to return the phone to the orignal stock rom.

How may i do that, i saw similar threads but a lot of them are already one year old so i taught i ask it on a new thread.

Good to know:

- i have no backup;

- i have the bootloader Team Win Recovery Project v2.8.7.0;

- i accidentally erased everything (except the bootloader);

What i want:

- Original bootloader, so i can get the orginal Asus updates;

- Original and newest stock rom.

And offcourse how i do all of this?

It's for the Asus Zenfone 2 with 4GB ram and the intel Atom 1.8 Ghz 32Gb Storage.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdxdave:
Just download raw firmware and flash with ASUS Flash Tool.

Then boot in bootloader and start the tool after you have connected your Zenfone to your computer. Choose "ZE551ML" from Model select list, choose "Yes" to wipe data and select the downloaded raw firmare with the package icon. Afterwards press start to flash firmware.
