Did you ever test a wireless charger with a Flygrip? I use one on my Note (no case), and I'd like to get a Stand version - so in addition to the 1/4" thickness of the flygrip, I also need to see if the bottom of the stand has a wide enough lip to accommodate.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pedrohp:
Hi,

Well, i've been using a Z3 for around 6 months without modding it, and now it got replaced by a new Z3+ Dual under warranty.

So, i've been scooping around the forums, reading guides and trying to understand key concepts, but what seems most strange to me is that i haven't been able to find some mod / ROM that would justify modding my phone.

I'm used to mod phones and have done that extensively on older models, such as SGS3, but as time goes by, modding has become more like a painful job, with only a few gains...

SO, i'd like to hear about you guys... WHY do you mod your phones? What exactly you want to do with it, that cannot be done otherwise?

Is it XPOSED? What modules?

Some Custom kernel? which one?

What ROM are you guys loving?

What modding do you recommend?

Sorry for the long post, and thanks in advance
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bustr85:
I haven't so far and the big things that put me off:

- No AOSP or CM for the E6533 (z3+ dual)

- Unlocking the bootloader looks somewhat painful

- Losing the few Sony features I like: Album, Noise cancelling headphones, Image enhancement

- With root I won't be able to use: Barclaycard and other banking apps

So here - these are things I didn't do it. But to be honest I really regret buying this phone - My Z2 was superb; this hardly lasts the day on 1 charge and gets awfully hot - which is when it starts slowing down.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pedrohp:
Agreed 100%.

Would still be nice to hear from someone who actually mods, though.

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisdlc119:
Hello, has passed a lot of time since my last thread. This time, I'm requesting your help about something that every time I read a related thread turns more complicated.

I just want to know if I can flash CyanogenMod 13 or another custom ROM if I have an LG G4 with official Android Marshmallow V20c (not rooted and with locked bootloader, because I don't know if I can take the risk), because I learned how to root and unlock the bootloader, but for example, CM13 needs a V20a stock ROM and when I flashed that version with LGUP I didn't have signal and com.android.process wasn't working.

I hope you can give me a vision, very easy to understand, because the threads are not very explicit.

Thanks and regards!
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jens1969:
As simple as possible: no!

With MM and locked BL you can't get root and you can't install any custom Rom.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisdlc119:
You don't understand me. I know how to unlock my bootloader and after that root my phone, but I'm not taking the risk because I flashed the V20A stock ROM to install CM13, but I didn't have cellular signal and because that I didn't try to unlock and root my phone.

Maybe this question is more useful: Can I install CM13 when I have a V20C stock ROM and not the V20A one?

Thanks and regards.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adamz667:
You can flash any custom rom if you have unlocked bootloader and custom recovery e.g. TWRP. Without that things you can't flash anything, because custom roms needs unlocked bootloader.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisdlc119:
OK, now I understand that I can flash CM13 over V20C and not necessarily over V20A.

Enviado desde mi LG-H815 mediante Tapatalk
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SavageRobot:
You can flash CM13 on any V20... (V10 being LP, V20 MM) as long as you have a MM base you can flash. However, as said above, you MUST unlock bootloader to flash CM, don't try and flash custom ROM without unlocked bootloader. You can unlock bootloader on any version as long as yours is one of the models with the ability.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] rfgamaral:
Was I not supposed to wipe the cache and/or ART cache in TWRP? Because, to try and fix a stupid problem, I did wiped that and created a lot of other problems. STUPID!

Facebook/Messenger keep force closing when opened...

Amplify also keeps force closing when opened...

Xposed no longer works, it says it's installed and active but it does nothing. Tells me to check the log, but there is no error file (it can't create the file).

I get a 404 error when Xposed tries to download the modules list.

I made a System + Data + Boot backup but I've read that since "Data" is encrypted on the HTC 10 with proprietary algorithms, that it's not possible to restore it. I could just restore "System" and "Boot", but will that do anything? And shouldn't I clear Cache and ART Cache after doing that anyway?

What the hell did I do to my phone? :(

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] rfgamaral:
I might have fixed this...

I just uninstalled a bunch of root apps (AdAway, Xposed, SuperSU, Greenify), apps that change the "system" (although they were systemless) and restored my boot image. Cleared Cache and ART Cache again, rebooted and reinstalled Facebook/Messenger. They are now working again :)

I'm going to reinstall everything else back, one by one and see if everything is fixed...

[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] TylerC161:
I've been working on something on my computer for a while now. Its pretty much a section of folders, with numbers, retaining to instructions. All of these folders basically make up everything I run on my phone. Its a complete kit for reflashing / changing OS's.

for example: upon opening it there are 2 folders. 1 is the install of the OS, the other is post OS install programs. Open folder 1 and it'll have 3 more. The RUU, the OS Im currently running, and perhaps another OS to choose from. In those are all the files needed to perform an OS reflash, as well as instructions as what to do.

I can combine this all into a zip, which could be a huge tool for newbies and everyone else alike if they want a 1 stop shop for all their OS needs.

If there is enough interest in this, I will modify it a little more, tweak some guides in it, and release it as a ZIP.

So whos interested?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tronik:
Hi everyone.

Stock +KingRoot'ed Partition Dump as well as the OTA UPDATE zip available here:

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=126528

(this is rooted w/KingRoot, if you want to tinker you may need to grab the stock install-recovery.sh (as trying to install update fails for this file among other things, just a side-effect of using KingRoot to root.

Another thing to work out for that could brick you - Kingroot does a chattr +ia on install-recovery.sh - If you try to install the update and immutable attributes are present the update will fail and you may be left with a boot loop.

Since there's no custom recovery, and I couldn't get this thing to goto fastboot (didn't try very hard though), may be out of luck if you get bricked...

I strongly recommend NOT taking/using the OTA, but I have provided it here since I know some people may want to inspect/manually install it. If you do want updated apps I'd pull them from the update manually...

I returned this phone after I did the dump, so I'll be of no further use with it... but I hope this helps.

Just use TWRP to do a full backup to your SD Card before you attempt anything.

Or, you could flash a already rooted version of a Stock Rom. Look at my sig for the one I'm running. It's PE1.

Hello i have my moto g with android 4.4.4 (Via OTA)

and decided to update, i unblock the bootloader, and install TWRP 2.8

but when you upgrade to [ROM][PEREGRINE][6.0][STOCK] Identity Crisis 6 LTE v1.3b [4 August 2016]

the screen flashes/flickering, that is solved by pressing the lock button.

what can i do to solve this blink when starting?

thanks!! :good:
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilikered:
I think this is known behavior when your bootloader version doesn't match the ROM version. Can't be solved unless you flash stock ROM that's compatible with your bootloader version.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Professor Gibbins:
[MENTION=4182265]ilikered[/MENTION] is correct, the flickering is cause by an outdated bootloader.

To fix it you must flash the stock 4.4.4 system (the Boot and System partitions are enough), and importantly the stock recovery. Once that is done you must install each OTA update from Motorola, which include bootloader upgrades. Then you can reflash Identity Crisis.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fantasma64:

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] digger16309:
I know I saw this process in a recent thread but I've misplaced it. If anyone can point me to it, I would be grateful.

I want to clean flash CM 13 on my OP3.

From what I remember, I'm supposed to store the CM 13 zip file and gapps file in the SD Card folder. Is that truly correct? The OP3 doesn't have an SD Card though I did find a folder.

If I do a factory reset and wipe everything, won't that folder also get wiped? Then how would I install the ROM from the phone?

Sorry, I know this is a straightforward process for many of you, and dirty flashing is easy. But I think a clean flash is better and I'd rather not guess and end up with a bricked phone I have to fuss with.

Again, I know this exact process is in a thread somewhere but I can't find it.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Bradl79:
the phone storage is /sdcard/

u can use something like ES File Explorer and create a folder called CM13 or whatever u want

u do have ur bootloader unlocked and twrp installed, correct?

yes u will just the get cm zip file and put it in a folder (ex. /sdcard/CM13/)

i put the gapps in the same folder

create a nandroid backup

wipe/advance wipe - wipe caches/data/system !!!!Do NOT WIPE - INTERNAL STORAGE OR OTG!!!

then flash cm zip and gapps
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] digger16309:
Hi, thank you. Yes, bootloader unlocked, twrp installed and I've done it in the past on a different phone but couldn't sort out clean flashing from dirty flashing. I've done it correctly in the past, and it's also gone very wrong for me. I think I mistakenly wiped internal storage once and that was a disaster.

Somewhere I've also read about a factory reset through trwp.

I don't need to do that, or wiping caches/data/system is the same thing?

.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Hw4ng3r:
If you wipe internal storage, you will lose the zips for your ROM and GAPPS. You can connect your device and have it recognized on your PC from within TWRP if you do accidentally wipe your internal storage.

Factory reset doesn't wipe the system partition as that would remove your OS. Most Roms will wipe your system partition before it installs itself so generally you don't have to wipe the system partition manually, but it's good practice.

Clean flash = wipe dalvik, cache, data; then install ROM (which will wipe system before it installs, or manually wipe system before the ROM install for good measure).

Dirty flash = flash ROM, then wipe dalvik and cache. The only time you should do this if the ROM you're looking to flash says it can be done (ie. CM nightlies).

Not sure where this would go so I posted it here.

Anyways, I bought my S7E around the end of April, early May. In June, Samsung started their promotion for a free VR headset again so I figured I'd sign up. I knew it would probably get denied and, no surprise, it did. Well, the other day I went on eBay and purchased a T-Mobile LG V10 to use as a second device (and maybe sell the S7E) for the nice DAC and IR Blaster. Pretty much the same day I switched my sim into the V10, I received an email from Samsung saying: Although we denied your request for the promotion, we changed our minds and we're sending you a headset.

Is that just a coincidence or did they somehow know I didn't have my sim active in the S7E and are enticing me to stay with that device?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] zoso28:
My guess is that they got a lot of complaints from people just outside the promo window, especially considering they ended it, then brought it back, then announced some S7 Edge/Note 7 promos. Either way, I doubt it was your sim change, just a nice coincidence. I work with at&t and Samsung has no access to your account info, other than what it gathers from the Samsung app store collecting meta-data.
