[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] ay0503:
Did you try google's device manager to wipe the device
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] davebugyi:
Google's Android Device Manager or Samsung's Find My mobile.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] midnightrider:
That's only if you turned them on. I think by default they are off. I know they are off on mine.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] davebugyi:
Then he can say bye-bye to the phone :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] midnightrider:
I think you can say goodbye to any stolen anything. It's rare to get anything back and even more rare to get something back in any kind of condition that you would actually still want it.

Anyway can't somebody who knows start a wiped/locked phone in recovery and reflash and fix it?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] katananja:
Call your phone service and block the phone IMEI, this will put it on a black list and never work as a cellphone again.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] midnightrider:
He's going to need some paperwork to prove he owned it. And also if he blocks it and does get it back it won't be useful.

About the only thing you can do is lock your own phone so if somebody does steal it at least they don't get all your personal data with it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] katananja:
The chance for him to get his phone back is minimal since he didn't use any basic security from the beginning.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] midnightrider:
Security doesn't get you your phone back. It just keeps people from getting your info.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] katananja:
But security block people from using your social network, email, contacts, data, personal information, etc, etc.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] midnightrider:
So you agree with me? Because that's what I said. You even quoted it ;)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sarmad Ishtiaq:
Hey everybody. So here's what happened. I had installed CM13 installed on my SIII (i9300). Its battery died and when I turned it on it gave me an encryption had failed error, i pressed the reset phone button and it brought me into TWRP. I couldn't factory reset so I decided to reinstall CM13. I did that, first it gave me a failed to mount /data error. I wiped it completely and after installing CM13 it gave me failed to mount storage error. It then wouldn't turn on and was stuck on "Galaxy SIII" boot screen (not cm animation). I formatted data, reinstalled CM, it made it till the boot animation screen not past that. I installed Ressurrection Remix and it does the same, stuck on the boot animation. It does boot normally when I restore the nandroid backup I made but I cant install any custom rom. Any help?:confused:

Dont want to restore stock rom using ODIN. :(
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rp158:
But that's the way.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sarmad Ishtiaq:
Alright, but why cant I flash any other rom even after restoring the backup I made? :confused:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rp158:
[MENTION=5591541]Sarmad Ishtiaq[/MENTION]: because anything in your system is messed up, maybe in your backupped state already.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sarmad Ishtiaq:
That's peculiar. I restored the backup once and was still able to flash another rom after it.

I'll just flash the stock rom when I get home.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sarmad Ishtiaq:
Alright here's what has happened. I restored stock firmware using ODIN here is what it said:

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] DroidBot:
Hi Guys,

People are getting CM bootlogo after flashing CMRadio.zip. And yes, I also flashed Radio.zip and got CM bootlogo instead of MI bootlogo.

So, here I am giving a easy tutorial to restore MI bootlogo after flashing radio.zip.

Note: I am not responsible for any software or Hardware damage. Do it on your risk. I have done this method and it worked for me.

Requirements:

1) You need Fastboot & ADB Files Package on your PC.

2) Drivers properly installed on PC, so it can detect your phone in fastboot mode.

3) Mibootlogo image file. (It's attached in this post, download it and place in adb folder.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now Come to the procedure.

--> Download the attached image file (splash.img) from bottom of this post and put it in ADB folder.

--> boot your phone in fastboot mode.

--> attach your phone to computer after booting in fastboot mode.

--> now go to ADB folder. Shift Key + right click on mouse and select 'Open Command Window Here' option.

--> Now, type below this code

fastboot devices

SEE ATTACHED THUMBNAIL BOTTOM OF THIS POST, FOR REFERENCE.

--> if you can see 'fastboot' device in the list, it means you are good to go to next step. [If you can't see your 'fastboot' device in list, it means your phone is not detected. Please check if you have installed drivers properly and try again].

--> Once you can see your device in list, type the below code and hit enter.

fastboot flash splash splash.img

--> Once it's done. Again type:

fastboot reboot

--> Congrats :D , you have successfully restored your MI bootlogo. :good:

press THANKS button if I helped you in anyway. :victory:
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] GuestK00443:
or just restore splash from miui backup
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] jbawgs:
Anyone know how to edit this for a custom image?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] dennysf96:
Man, its just me or that radio file also put an mi account to my device? Coz when I flashed miui, it keeps asking for an account that isnt mine, and I cant go back to miui now, and I want to fully restore my phone, but the mi account that the radio file put in there is giving me a lot of trouble.

The only way I can use my phone is using cm roms
[Windows 10 Mobile] T4ufik_Hidayat:
Do you still remember smiliar apps "Reboot Now" for this? Yes, Reboot Now in old time working for WP8 device only. Then, WP8.1 is born, the apps no longer can use because Windows Phone 8.1 is not supported by offical API's.

Now, in Windows 10 Mobile. I'll bring back the smiliar functional apps. It's pure official API by MSFT and same using like in Device Diagonistic Hub.

First, I must say thanks to MSFT to open the door for Windows 10 Mobile so we can use this function by the API directly.

No else feature available, only main feature.

- Shutdown

- Restart

- Pin tile to start screen

Here is for how to increase our power/lock button from damaged

Just tap in screen to make some important action like:

- to Lock your phone, use apps like #1 Lock Screen or OneTouch Lock, etc..

- to Turn Off or Reboot your phone, use my apps you can download in below link

Full change logs you can see in "what's new" in the Store.

Download​

Thanks :fingers-crossed:

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jez9999:
Google app ('googlequicksearchbox') displays "Get Now cards" instead of search box

OK so after updating the Google app, the Google search box I used to have along the top of my home screen now says "Get Now cards", and there is apparently no way to get rid of this without opting in to Google Now, which I don't want to do. I just want it to display the search box it previously did.

Assuming this mandatory "Get Now cards" crap was introduced in a recent update of the Google app, does anyone know what the most recent version of the app *without* this 'feature' was, and how I can downgrade back to that? Unfortunately, the "Uninstall updates" button for the "Google app" in my apps list is greyed out.

UPDATE: I have discovered how to at least downgrade back to the version that was bundled with my Gapps; I "uninstalled" the app named "Google" from Google Play (which actually uninstalled the updates, not the app; go figure). However, this takes it back to quite an old version before the Google logo was redesigned. So my question about which version they introduced the "Get Now cards" thing in still stands; I'm sure that before, I had a search bar along the top with the rebranded Google logo but it did not prompt me to sign up to "Get Now cards" before the search bar would appear.

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] PashaK:
Hi guys, i know this is not a normal question in these forums but i don't know where else to look.

apart from ebay, is there any other way an australian can get their hands on an htc x7501?

any help is appreciated.

thanx in advance
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] jasonkhan:
After extensive searching, the only place I found was ebay. Also, just making sure that you know the X7501 does not have a front camera for video calls. Only the X7500 does.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] rhedgehog:
that would be because the X7501 is only for the North American Market, the X7500 is for the rest of the world, but obviously it depends on orders from the retailers and networks as to whether the distributors will bother to import it.

i would say Ebay all the way, or from a reputable worldwide online retailer such as expansys or someone similar.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] apd:
WHy do you want a 7501 rather than a 7500? Did you realise the 7501 is the same but just missing the front camera?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Fixerboy:
Unfortunately, when I asked the same question of HTC on Oct 24, they replied "

"There is no plans for a release of HTC Advantage X7500/X7501 at this current stage. The shift is due for release last quarter of this year, hopefully this will suite your requirements."

The Shift doesn't suit my requirements so I ordered a 7501 from Mobileplanet - it arrived yesterday!
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] eaglesteve:
I asked HTC where I could buy Dopod U1000 back in March this year. They replied that they will not be sellin this device in Australia and New Zealand.

They said the Telco in Australia wanted to charge them an arm and leg for 'testing fee', which HTC refused to pay.

So I got mine from Singapore, and found out that no testing is needed. It just worked.

I don't see SHIFT doing well at all in Australia. It's too small to be used as a Vista machine but too big to be carried around. It's too battery poor, and too slow. I do see Advantage/Athena doing very well in Australia. It is almost a perfect device.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] PashaK:
Thanx for the reply guys. i know the differences between the x7500 and x7501 but the increase in price just for the front camera is not justified. i dont use video call anyway.

i'll check out mobileplanet, how much did you pick it up for?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] PashaK:
also fixerboy, how long did it take to be sent to you from the day you ordered it? and how much was the combined price with shipping in AUD? was there any customs fees?

thanx
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Fixerboy:
Approx $A1200 inc shipping and a 4 in 1 cable - Ordered approx 10 days ago - said backlog was until Nov 22 but the day before yesterday, the tracker said it was backlogged for 9 days - then it showed up yesterday so approx 12 days from order to arrival.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] PashaK:
excellent news. i might order it today. i had a look through the checkout process, do you remember which shipping option you chose? in other words, which ones apply to australia? is "rest of the world - 3 - 4 days" the only option available to australians?

also, how did you pay? credit card, wire transfer?

thanx
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Fixerboy:
Ship to Asia, I think

Credit card - they only charge to the card once shipped
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] PashaK:
thanx for the reply, uve been very helpful
[Huawei Y625 Questions & Answers] OrewaHighNoon:
Dear Sir/Madam

My Huawei Y625 has been bricked I suspect.

Basically my rooting software Kingroot constantly kept crashing so I rebooted my phone. Once that happened it would not go past the boot logo.

I did not install a recovery as my phone did not have one at the time I rooted it, so I only have access to the stock recovery.

Is there anyway I can flash my stock ROM onto my Phone using my Computer or my stock recovery? I am running Arch Linux.

I have tried a hard reset as well btw.

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Plumarh:
Hi everybody,

I got a problem, I had Superman 1.4.1 and I updated to 1.10 (full wipe), but now I can't install or update any app in the Oculus store... (The Gear VR app I installed in 1.4.1 work well thx to Titanium Backup).

Any time I try to install or update app, I got : "Unable to connect to installer service on the device. Please make sure all necessary applications are installed and enabled.".

I try to uninstall all Gear VR and Oculus apps (as oculus site explain) and reinstall, I try to download and install app directly and I reinstall the 1.10 ROM (wipe cache + dalvik cache) but nothing works...

Can you, please, help me ?

[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] floppes:
I bought my white Nexus 5X at the day of release last year and the back's color quickly changed from white to some brownish white, especially at the edges. In this forum and on reddit there were lots of other people with the same issue.

I am thinking about buying a new backside on eBay but I'm afraid it will also change it's color after a while. But maybe LG has changed their manufacturing process and fixed this problem? Does anyone know if newer backsides still discolor?
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Carach_CZ:
I bought used N5X and the color is kinda "vanilla" white, not "whitey white". So i guess that the color will change Its tone after some time. Could it be "cleaned" somehow? Or can the back be replaced somehow? Thank you.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OctoberNexus:
The back coating actually wears really easily, I saw something where this has been a major issue for all models of the Nexus 5X. I'll search for that link and update this post with it in a bit?
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] floppes:
Unfortunately you cannot clean it. It's not dirt but the coating vanishes over time. The back can be replaced quite easily, there are some videos on YouTube that show how it's done.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] floppes:
I have contacted LG and asked about the problem. They told me they had never heard about it :rolleyes: At least they offered to send in my phone and get it "repaired" for free. But I won't do that, they will reset the phone and I would have to wait days to get it back. So I just bought a new white back on eBay. Let's see if this new back will discolor as well...
[Android Software Development] ChahatGupta:
Hey Guys, Chahat here!

This time for releasing a mod made by me!

I've named it

AWESOME PATCH (AP)

It's a generic mod and can be flashed on ANY ROM.

I made it more for my porter/developer/themer brothers.

It'll be convenient to flash a zip rather replacing and editing files everytime! ;)

But it can be used by anyone to add a few things to devices...

Its the initial version, so I've kept the number of files very less... :D

Now let's see what it does to your device...

Enables lockscreen rotation

Enables rotation in launcher

(CM users will get full rotation on locksreen and launcher too if it's enabled from settings) ;)

New emojis (Google's latest release for 6.0.1 and up) added

(I'll suggest MM users too to try this, i found these ones better) :angel:

New lock and unlock sounds (extracted from iris x8)

Better ram management

Less lag in launching and switching apps

New stock font (not funky, but better than stock)

MORE ABOUT AP v.1.0:

I've kept things simple and less as this is the initial release

New stock font is elegant, not funky, thus, can be used while porting roms

(Users may switch to their favourite font thereafter)

Any suggestions/reviews are welcome :)

TESTS AND REVIEWS:

Already tested on stock KK/LP roms, CM 12.1, CM 13 and MIUI 8

:cool:

AP can be used by anyone(Developers, Porters, Normal Users)

Just make sure you give me proper credits if u use it in your ROM.

[UPDATE]: Reported working flawless even on non-MTK devices such as Samsung and Nokia too

DON'T WAIT!

GO FLASH !!!

:D LINK HERE: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bx1yfe6bcsG2Ul9Fd003Z0Q5QzQ/view?usp=docslist_api

Just a query

Can i redirect users to my blog for downloads in my threads?
[Android Software Development] Ashke14:
Faced some bugs.

This patch is really awesome as it makes my phone run smoother. However, i faced some bugs after flashing this patch. First is the face emojis on my stock keyboard (AOSP). Like smiley face, grin face, mad face, etc. I cant find any of them. I mean, they're gone on my phone. Another bug was when i am downloading any app on Playstore. The download is finish but it takes like 15 mins before it installs on my phone. Hope you could fix them. Thanks! ;)
[Android Software Development] ChahatGupta:
The emoji pack is complete

You may have faced that coz google has changed the emoji looks a lot

Its there, just looks changed

And the changed looks will only be visible to you

The people whom u send emojis will see it as it was earlier... :cowboy:

So don't worry

And this patch has nothing to do with apps installations...

Maybe something running in background in ur device...

Still I'll crosscheck once and keep ur review in mind in the next version...

Thanks 4 reviews and support :)
[Android Software Development] Gshrestha:
Tried your mod , hope it changes the things :D

.

But I didnt like the new emojis , I like the Xperia keyboard 7.3.A.0.2 emojis moreover , so flashed the xperia keyboard again,,,but m confused, will it uninstall your patch...

.

Plus it would be great if there had been uninstaller of your patch as well...reflashing the rom is kinda boring....

.

Further , awaiting your patch for batter mod [ It would be a lifesaver ]...my battery drains a lot :crying:
[Android Software Development] ChahatGupta:
No, u can surely flash xperia keyboard patch, it won't harm my patch, just emojis will be changed

And yes I'll give an update soon and keep ur suggestions in mind...

Thanks for support :)
[Android Software Development] Ashke14:
Thanks for the response :)

I've attached a screenshot of my stock keyboard, and if you can notice there that there is no face emoji from the selection of emojis on my stock keyboard. And about the installing from playstore, i only encountered that when i flashed the patch. I will try to look for the culprit of my PS installation bug. Maybe, there's just something wrong on the background processes of my device.
