[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] Ankorad:
Hello,

I have the P9 Lite with VNS-L31 Build and unlock Bootloader / twrp. Now I cant receive official Updates from Huawei. Can I just lock the bootloader to get Updates or do I have to reset the Phone. And what do I have to do?

Sorry for the bad english I am germany.
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] lzimbrea:
First you need stock recovery flashed on your device, and system partition unmodified.

I have unlocked bootloader, twrp and rooted device, but I eas able to update to b131 ( from b104 ) with twrp recovery.

With a cost. Loosing the root and custom recovery.
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] Ankorad:
And how can I do that?
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] lzimbrea:
Find a stock recovery, flash it on your device and try to update, if you didn't succeed, try to restore your software via dload method.

Is anyone else having an issue Formatting their External Sd Card as Internal memory on Marshmallow? I have tried every Marshmallow Rom for this phone and everytime I try to do this it stops at 20% and I get a java error and my card vanishes until I reset my phone and then the card is corrupted.

Hello everyone, I have a little problem, lately as a result of an update by samsung (are tim brand) my phone through SmartManager always detects app that could be a security threat, but that is not a security threat . Can anyone help me as the notification of this SmartManager is quite annoying. I anticipate that I already tried to delete cache and data SmartManager and restarted, tried to turn off notifications all possible and imaginable but unfortunately after a while despite all my efforts I can not get rid of this notification. Obviously I could delete the app but i use it and I would not come to this.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Guzmanus:
I've just reflashed the latest official developer global ROM and then i've installed TWRP via fastboot. But when I try to boot it, both via ADB and turning on the phone via vol up + on, it doesn't boot. It just shows an image of the phone with a cable below and in ADB it shows the device is on sideload mode. I've tried with various TWRP versions (cofface, the original, etc) but it's still not booting. Bootloader is unlocked officially.

Help, i cant root it and i'm really freaked out :/
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] crckmc:
Did you by any chance reboot to system after flashing twrp? I experienced this only then because system replaces twrp with the stock recovery.

So do it like this:

flash via fastboot

reboot via fastboot but keep volume up pressed

twrp will ask you if it should disable stock recovery replacement -> yes

hope it works for you

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Q9Nap:
This probably sounds like a crazy question, but wondering whether it would be possible to build/run AOSP 4.4.4 on Shamu?

The factory firmware for Shamu is 4.4.4, so it should be possible afaik.

The only reason I can think of for why it wouldn't work is proprietary binaries, as 5.0 are the earliest available.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] christianpeso:
Factory firmware for Shamu was 5.0. Thats what it shipped with. Their was never a 4.X for Shamu.

As for 4.4.4, anything is possible. Will you be able to find a dev willing to work on it? Most likely not. Makes no sense other than the challenge of it. Might be a project you can take up yourself if you like. There are tons of tutorials, information, and devs around to give advice.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
sure, its possible.. do you havd a kitkat driver for the n6 to make it work? if not, then itll never work. btw, google never released the drivers.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Q9Nap:
Yes, Shamu shipped with 5.0, but there is a 4.4.4 factory firmware file that is available for use by repair centers.

I've tried it, and it is a very minimal build. It isn't worth using as a daily driver at all.

I'm sure I could repo sync and compile aosp 4.4.4, but I don't want to take the time and effort if it won't work lol.

Besides the lack of 4.4.4 proprietary binaries, there is also no official 4.4.4 kernel source, so I'm basically wondering if it could work with 5.0 proprietary binaries and kernel source?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Q9Nap:
Right, the lack of 4.4.4 drivers and kernel source are my main concern as far as whether it would work.

I'm wondering whether it would be possible to extract the necessary driver files and kernel from the factory buid?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
theres no kitkat driver, period. if there is, google has it. no, you cant extract a past driver from a newer os.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Q9Nap:
I have a 4.4.4 pre-release build from Motorola; would it be possible to extract the drivers and use its kernel/boot image?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Pre-release build of what from Motorola? Unless that pre-release build is specifically for the Nexus 6, you won't be able to use its kernel with the device.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Q9Nap:
*removed*
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
nope. drivers are very device specific. it has to be a nexus 6 driver, or you will not get any of the software to work with the hardware and with the physical device.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Q9Nap:
Ok, I'll say it again; I have official 4.4.4 Motorola firmware for the Nexus 6. See the build.prop in the previous post.

Is it possible to extract the drivers and kernel from this and include in AOSP 4.4.4?

It is factory test firmware and isn't really viable to use as a daily driver, which is why I want to use parts from it to build AOSP.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
you can try, thats the best that i can say..
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
As [MENTION=1811927]simms22[/MENTION] already said, you can try it. However, according to the build.prop, ro.product.model is an XT-1080,which is a Droid Ultra. The hardware for the Droid Ultra is completely different from the N6, with specs more applicable to a Samsung Galaxy S3, and thus its drivers and kernel will both be different. Neither will work on the Nexus 6.

I'm sorry, but I highly doubt this is a genuine Nexus 6 pre-release ROM. Posting the build.prop is insufficient proof, as the build.prop can be easily edited to have it say whatever you choose. You'll have to find another way to persuade the audience.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Q9Nap:
I'm not trying to persuade anyone, lol. I'm just asking whether it's theoretically possible or not.

You are welcome to have access to the full firmware if you like, sheesh.

Why would I bother faking a build.prop?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
It's not, as the Droid Ultra hardware is totally different. As to why anyone would want to fake a pre-release ROM, your guess is as good as mine. But at least you provided something when asked, unlike one guy in the S4 forums who claimed he could reset the Knox efuse after it was tripped, something not even Samsung can do.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Q9Nap:
This is not for droid ultra. Yes, one line in the build.prop says xt1080, but everything else says shamu. Apparently, xt1080 was the working model number during testing.

For you and any other doubters, here ya go:

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doitright:
Wow, this thread is hilarious.

First off, there is no such thing as a driver that is linked specifically to a version of Android. The driver is between LINUX and HARDWARE.

While newer versions of Android may be more demanding of the kernel, they are not intrinsically tied together. You can run Android 2.0 on Kernel 4.6 if you want. Nothing is going to stop you from doing that.

Now the place where you could run into some stickyness, is in the **hardware abstraction layers**. These are not the drivers. These are the bits of code that talk Android API on one side, and Linux on the other side. Most of the HALs are open source, so could be converted if need be.

Most of the HAL changes are things being added into the new versions that didn't exist in the old. As a result, in most cases, you could take a 5.0 HAL and stuff it into a 4.4 system image -- and it should work.

But the big question is.... why would you ever want to do that? 4.4 is obsolete and dead. LEAVE IT BE!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Q9Nap:
This is the kind of response I was looking for, thank you!

Yeah I know KK is obsolete; the main reason I am interested, besides theoretical curiosity, is the holo dark ui; really don't like the bright material white ui, and the material dark ui doesn't look that great either.

I know I can use cmte, layers, or substratum to install a dark ui theme, but I haven't found a theme yet that doesn't have issues and/or inconsistencies, and they don't look as good as og holo dark imo.

Anyway, it definitely sounds like more trouble than it's worth, lol.

I dropped my phone while on my honeymoon and really want to recover some of the photos taken. The screen is cracked and when I turn it on the blue led stays lit and my computer doesn't detect the phone. Is there anyway to retrieve the files from it? Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] tdunham:
You can odin twrp custom recovery, one of the latest versions and reboot straight from odin to custom recovery. The phone should mount storage from there so you can get to the data.

It will be tricky since you don't have a screen to see what you are doing though and hope that there isn't anything else going on with the phone.

Use at least v3.0.2 or version.

Okay I have ALE-L02C190B120 with unlocked bootloader and root in South Africa .

I tried doing huawei local update with C432B560 and it failed.

I tried this using stock recovery but rooted , which i know someone says wont work.

The thing is that I don't have data to download the C432B170.

So now to my Question:

Can i extract the B560 Update.app using Huawei Update Extractor and flash the system,cust,boot and recovery images safely without hardbricking my device which is currently on C190B120? and might the update work via emui updater if i just Unroot?

[Huawei Mate S] joachimlarsen:
Afternoon gents.

So yesterday i tried to update my Mate S with 5.1 Android to the 6.0 version with Huawei´s Firmware. After adding the Dload file to the mobilephone and starting the update sequenze, the phone does a double boot, basically does the first boot as usual, after loading the first boot it reboots and does a second boot. The second boot just gets stuck at the Huawei loadingscreen.

Ive tried to clear both the cache folder and do a factory reset, both did not work. I tried to do a recovery from the Hisuit software from Huawei, but as my phone is not supported by the software, that did not work either. (And yes, i did get the phone into the Fast Boot menu).

So from what i can see, im left with doing a manuel reset of the ROM. This is not something im very good at, allthough i do know alot about PCs, phones is a whole nother area i have not exlored yet.

So i was wondering if anyone here had any help they could provide me with how i can fix this for this specific phone. I do have the stock ROM and the newest ROM with 6.0 Android.

Ive been fooling around with ADB and SP Flash Tools, but i constantly get stuck as im not too sure what im doing.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
[Huawei Mate S] joachimlarsen:
Edits

Just a few Edits:

The ADB i simply could not figure out how to use, the SP Flash Tools on the other hand looked quite simplistic and easy to use. Problem i had with the SP Flash Tools is that i only have the Update.APP file, but i did need a Scatter file (and possibly some other files), this is where i got stuck using this software.

Also, i forgot to mention. Whenever i turn off the phone by holding inn the ON/OFF Buttion, it automatically restarts and tries to boot again. Basically i cannot turn it off.
[Huawei Mate S] blueIBI:
hi..

try to get a full 5.1.1 rom for your mate s..

which cust version do you have?

eu is c432

global is c900

and all others are provider based firmwares or other countries..

so you need to get your proper firmware which is for your country, then take an external sd card..format it on pc (fat32), put a folder on it named "dload", inside this you put the update.app (no need for other files)..

then start your phone by pressing all three hardware buttons (power, vol+ & vol-) at the same time and hold them until the update screen is showing up..

then it should flash/install this firmware..

after that try to start the OTA updater by huawei..

if this doesn't work, take the correct update.app (full version) of the next higher version (in my example it was c432b145 (android 5) - c432b321 (android 6 beta) - c432b361 (android 6 final) ) and do the same as before..

good luck

Hi, thanks for the reply.

To be honest, im not completly sure which i have, but considering i bought it in Norway i supose the EU version is the correct: eu is c432

I did not know you coul boot from an external SD card. this made things alot easyer. Ill drive out to my office where i have a micro SD card coverter and try this fix. Ill bring all the Firmwares and lets hope it all works!

[Huawei Mate S] joachimlarsen:
Hello again,

I tried what you suggested with both the stock ROM and the new updated ROM, but it did not seem to work. The problem i get is when the update starts, it reaches 5% when it verifies the software, then i get a "Software install failed!".

Please note i had this problem before i tired this, problem first occured when i did a factory reset of the device. So i belive the phone is still not booting from the SD card, but from thge phone itself as before. How do i solve this?
[Huawei Mate S] joachimlarsen:
I could also add. before i did the factory reset, the update did work, but it still got stuck on the boot logo.

Hi. I'm not a noob but pretty much am. I've rooted and rom'd several of my last phones but I really only do it when I get them so I don't have a ton of experience doing it. I just got an S6 so I'm hoping someone can point me to the right direction. Its a sprint phone and I'm on the unlimited plan. I really only need to enable the hotspot. As I understand I can no longer just do that on this phone. I found the guide to root it but before I did I was hoping someone could point me to the latest information on the easiest way to turn the hotspot on. I haven't had good luck picking ROM's lately so if I don't have to install one I'd rather not. I can live with all the bloat on the phone as I'm using it for work more now and really need it to be stable. Any help is appreciated.

Also is there a setting to disable the auto volume lowering when you plug into the headphone jack? I use it to line into my car radio and having to turn the volume back to max each time is really annoying.
