now i have Vodafone Ro sim in my s5 and my signal is ok. Aniway i don't understand why samsung not release update for three too :)))
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
It's not down to Samsung mate......

They've made the updates available....that's all they can do.

It's down to the network provider.....

They have to release it to their devices, and for whatever reason, they haven't updated this device yet.....

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] praex2:
Hi,

Total noob here, I've been reading alot but a bunch of it is way over my head, and i can only watch so many videos. PLease break it down "barney style" for me...

So i have a Nexus 7 2012 Wi-FI + 3g, its unlocked, rooted and running 4.4.2 with TWRP 3.0.2.0 via the Nexus root tool. I have a OTG cable to be able to charge and use an external hard drive, and from what i'm reading i need to flash a new kernel to be able to use that. I've found Timur's kernel works to accomplish that, but i can not find that kernel, and he's stop hosting it since Sep. 28, 2014. Does anyone have that kernel? Does it work with 4.4.2 and TWRP? Are there other kernels that i can use vice Timur's that allow me to use the OTG + charging? Also i do not plan to install this in my car.

Thanks,

Adam

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 10urshin:
I have a 32Gb S6 Edge(SM-G925FQ) version, today i flashed "AP_G925FXXU3DPBG_CL7086820_QB8626612_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5" to it. By mistake i chose "BL" instead of "AP" while flashing. Somehow it worked but i ended up with a 16GB internal SD card instead of 32GB. How do i fix this? Im pretty sure i need to re-partition it (hope not), if so where can i find a stock rom with pit file? Thanks for advise :confused:

[Xiaomi Mi 4i] vronra:
Guys I'm on global Miui 8 Global 6.7.5 beta. I tried to root and install twrp using mi4i rooting toolkit version 4. But it doesn't work. Previously on miui6 and miui7, I can root and install twrp using the mi4i toolkitV4. But now it doesn't work anymore when I upgraded to miui8.

Does anyone knows how to root miui8 global 6.7.5 beta?
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] sharan.nyn:
Rooting

First you have to enable developer options. Then in developer options under debugging section turn on USB debugging and Fastboot Mode.

Then download TWRP. Rename it to twrp.img for ease.

https://dl.twrp.me/ferrari/twrp-3.0.2-0-ferrari.img.html

Install fastboot and adb drivers.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=48915118#post48915118

Download root zip file, and place it on internal storage.

https://download.chainfire.eu/696/supersu/

Open the folder on PC where twrp image is downloaded. Hold shift and right click on the window(not the file or folder). Then select open command window here. CMD will open.

Long press power button and volume down to boot into fastboot mode, connect it by USB.

Type in CMD: fastboot devices

If it shows a device is connected you are good to go! If not verify if the drivers are properly installed.

To just root and preserve Mi Recovery for OTA:

Type in CMD: fastboot boot twrp.img

this will boot into twrp to flash supersu.zip file and reboot.

To flash TWRP permanently:

type: fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

then reboot by long pressing power button then open TWRP by power button + vol up. Then flash supersu.zip
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] vronra:
Thanks
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] Sitaa:
Worked?

Did it work?
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] vronra:
Yape!
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] headache59:
Thanks for the article - will update and root tonight
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] headache59:
The process:

update via OTA (hate this as my 16GB is insufficient - love all things M1 but hate the lack of external SD capability)

Reboots - it enters my old TWRP, and auto install update

Once it installs, and auto powerup, I turn on "fastboot mode" (developer option was already on) - a pain in the a55 due to the security prompt...

Power-off the device. Reboot to fastboot mode as per instruction above

I chose to retain M1 recovery, and so fastboot into TWRP to install SU.

Reboot

Tested with titanium backup - root works!

Thanks!!!

Love the new notification drawer, and memory management...
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] hergus:
can i root my mi4i without instal twrp and still habe ota update if my phone rooted ?

thanks
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] headache59:
Yes.

The OP posted 2 methods for using twrp near the end of his post.

For v7++, I could always ota despite having twrp onboard, instead of mi recovery. Not sure about this recent v8. Hence I used the first method above, preserving my recovery. Also, from my history of use. I never use twrp or recovery anymore, after rooting. No point having recovery backup as mi issues updates ofyen. I use titanium for backup of third party software only. Even then this is redundant since ota preserves software.
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] vijayk12:
i followed the procedure, but it shows fastboot boot twrp.img can not be found
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] sharan.nyn:
Are you sure you installed ADB Fastboot drivers? and make sure you 'cd' to the directory where twrp.img is located or else it will say the file is not found.
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] headache59:
You need to put the both fastboot and image files together in the same directory. Then open a MS prompt in this directory, and type the syntax to flash.
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] monishalria:
twrp not found??

twrp.img not found. now i have installed the adb drivers and verified as well by the "fastboot devices" command. now when i go to the this "fastboot devices twrp.img" command it says twrp not found. what to do?:confused:
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] ahmad_m.azam:
Found the solution

Rename the TWRP downloaded file to 'twrp' not 'twrp.img' as mention. and in command write ' fastboot boot twrp.img' as the downloaded file is already img :D i did it and worked for me.

Guys I need to update my miui 8.02.0 to latest miui 8.1.5.0. My phone is rooted and i have installed twrp. How can i update without losing data. kindly help.
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] Neal1812:
Hi,

I'm trying this procedure to root my Mi4i with MIUI 8.1.5.0 using Linux.

It does look like the recovery partition is successfully getting flashed. I get the following output:

sunny@acerASPIRE-LMSarahKDE /media/sunny/Data/Mi4i/CM $ sudo fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

target reported max download size of 268435456 bytes

sending 'recovery' (2191 KB)...

OKAY [ 0.077s]

writing 'recovery'...

OKAY [ 0.215s]

finished. total time: 0.293s

However, when I try to reboot into recovery mode it goes into stock recovery (MI-Recovery 2.0.1). I even tried using 'fastboot erase recovery' to get rid of stock recovery:

sunny@acerASPIRE-LMSarahKDE /media/sunny/Data/Mi4i/CM $ sudo fastboot erase recovery

erasing 'recovery'...

OKAY [ 0.036s]

finished. total time: 0.036s

Again, when I try to boot into recovery mode, it goes into stock recovery.

I was wondering if I'm missing something somewhere.

I was able to successfully root the phone using this procedure (and install TWRP) when it was running MIUI 7. Does this behaviour have anything to do with MIUI 8?

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Neal
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] sharan.nyn:
Hey,

As u mentioned the commands u used, I can notice that the size of the recovery image is 2191KB. I am sure that recovery images are atleast 20MB or so. The best guess would be incomplete download.

Download a new image from the link : https://dl.twrp.me/ferrari/ and try again.

Regards,

Sharan

[Xiaomi Mi 4i] yesmaybe:
looks like my phone is down the toilet

I have a messed up my phone struggling to root reboot.

It is a Mi4 LTE and I have been using it (of sorts) in England for the last year. Apart from the annoying China apps which keep updating, I am also stuck on 2G and since reinstalling the whole system today can no longer install Google Play, it insists it's already installed. So I tried to root it following the instructions above, it didn't work and I found the TWRP-cancro image as I read it's the Android version which is important, not the MIUI version and my phone has/had Android 6.0.5 (or 6.5.0) with MIUI 8.

I fastbooted twrp.cancro image and tried to install SuperSU-v2.46.zip I now wonder if it should be using BETA-SuperSU-v2.52.zip instead, but can't access via USB any more... that's the thing with these forums, there is no one place to go and posts become dated, or your phone does and the post supercedes your phone, etc etc.

When I installed the supersu.zip, 'Miui powered by Android' screen stayed on for 20 minutes which I work out is in error.

I can connect via USB to Pc Suite and it pops up "choose zip package to flash

Stable V8.5.2.0.MXDCNED 1.1G

or

Beta 7.6.14 1.2G"

Either one, same immediate result. "Just a sec ... couldn't flash device." Then it can't find the phone.

I can fastboot the twrp.img and it comes up with "Team Win Recovery Project 3.0.0-0"

If I try to restore the back up I made earlier today it says

"failed, cannot restore system -- mounted read only"

I can view the file manager under advance tab and can go to terminal, etc.

But I would like some guidance before I start messing it up even more, if that's even possible.

Can I get back the old system, or even better, can I load a rooted version of Android with Google Apps?

Thanks!

Andy

[Fire General] daniel3016:
I used the 5.1.2 bin file and installed adb drivers on my windows computer. I used a program called minimal adb and fastboot. I opened minimal adb and fastboot, powered on fire by holding volume down and power until bootloader. Selected apply update from adb. Typed ' adb sideload' and dragged the bin file into the window of minimal adb and fastboot. Hit enter and watched it climb to100%. This was from 5.1.4 and 5.1.3. I do not know if it will work going down from 5.3.1.0. the fire is a piece of crap with the stock amazon installed imo

What is the date of your 5.3.1.0 FireOS ?

This thread is your friend :

http://xdaforums.com/amazon-fire/general/unbrick-amazon-fire-7in-2015-5th-gen-t3285294

You would try to sideload the 5.1.2 (the last version that's rootable at the moment). There is a chance the downgrade would brick (due to the possible higher version of the newer bootloaders ), so be prepared to send Fire back to Amazon if this fails.

One option is to write the entire new system, but that would take forever since those tools are slow ...

You're replacement probably will not have 5.3.1.0 on it, but a lower version. So if I were you, I'd turn off my wifi router to be safe before turning on the device for the first time. Then turn on my new device, skip the wifi login step on the device, and check the version number. If 5.1.4 or below, you should be able to downgrade (if need be) and root. Then shut off OTA updates. Then you can turn on your router/wifi etc.
[Fire General] fusion01k:
Thanks for the advice. I will check it out when it arrives soon.
[Fire General] jmorlin:
For those without a bricked device, just one on 5.3.1.0 and still want to root is it best to just sit tight then and wait on a work around?

AFTV2 Tools works below OS 5.3.1 though?
[Fire General] bibikalka:
I think the last version was 5.1.1. The tools don't work in 5.1.2 . Amazon replaces the preloader with each update, so they can fix it quite easily.

[Samsung Galaxy Grand Quattro] GamerYBR:
Hey, guys.

I own a Samsung Galaxy Grand Quattro (Grand Win) I-8552. I am trying to update it to 4.4. I found a valid (looking) zip that needs to be flashed.

But now I can't use CWM, which the ROM needs (my phone is unsupported). Can't use Odin, 'cause it needs a *.tar extension or something like that, and converting a zip into a tar file doesn't work when it has a META-INF folder and *.img extension file.

Every page I have visited about installing CWM on unsupported devices requires a model-specific file from the website. So basically they are saying, "How to run CWM on unsupported devices, but requires a supported device."

Please !

EDIT: Never mind, I derped. How do I kill the thread?

I'm hoping somebody might have am answer for me. Or maybe somebody else is also experiencing this.

I picked up two 15,600 mah battery packs. They charge all of our phones except the s7 edge without issue. Other phones: G5, S6, Note 5.

However the S7 edge will connect, charge for 20-30 seconds, disconnect and repeat. I'm at a loss about this. The packs are ImlandPro brand. I've tried both the 1 and 2.4 amp ports.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Dark_Stang:
I figured it out. The batteries came with cheap cables. Using other cables makes it work just fine.

EDIT: and anyways im asking because, i use Honor 4X/Gplay, and its the same phone that the P8 lite, except internal storage, so that's why im wondering, anyways i think i used your AOSP, that had some bugs like no signal, no wifi, etc (im not sure if you made it), the thing is that rom worked it in my phone too lol

Hi [MENTION=7354786]XePeleato[/MENTION] first of all Good Job and second as i can see into the screenshots the RIL problem is persistent or you didn't insert the SIM :P. I'm following your work on github if u need someone who test the ROM call me ;)
[P8lite Android Development] XePeleato:
Hi, The SIM is there, the thing is that I need to patch the framework in order to include the Huawei Java classes that enable the RIL stack. I'll release a testing version soon, since I want to include things to test, it wouldn't make sense to upload a rom with 1 or 2 features working, there would be nothing to test :p

Sure! what about the camera? i think is not possible to port the Snap camera feature on HiSi
[P8lite Android Development] XePeleato:
Wifi worked fine on my 5.1 AOSP version, The system.img weighs roughly 800MB, I don't know exactly how much will it take, since CM13 didn't erase my internal storage.

Well, sokkoban recieved a LOT of input about his roms, there were a lot of questions and stuff, it can get really annoying, these open source projects come "As is, without warranty of any kind" - quoting the GPL so actually, trying to give some decent support on this forums is really kind.

The Snap app is included, however since I haven't included the camera HAL yet, I don't know for sure if it will work.

I'll be off like a week or so, I have compiled my own kernel, with some CPU governors to try, and I have fixed the screen DPI so far, there's still some serious patching needed.
[P8lite Android Development] panchovix:
[MENTION=7354786]XePeleato[/MENTION] yeah it worked, but if im not mistaken, with static wifi, but interesting, if the system is 800MB i think i will be fine, thanks for all about this
