[Nexus 5X General] jcmm11:
The radio should be a fairly simple flash in something like flashfire. It's one chunk going to one partition.

Bootloader is a lot more problematic. Bootloader has pieces that get written to multiple partitions. I could probably do this, but I would need a correctly installed copy to start with - and I don't have easy adb access either at the moment.

I'll see what I can do in the next few days. No promises though. If I do manage to put it together I'll need a guinea pig to test it out :p :angel: ?
[Nexus 5X General] leolawliet:
If and when I get a newer device soon, I wouldn't mind testing with my N5X.
[Nexus 5X General] Chitown021:
Thanks so much for at least giving it a shot. I don't mind testing it out on my phone.
[Nexus 5X General] jcmm11:
Well I have a zip file. I used the previous one as a template, so it should work. The biggest difference is that the files I've included are full image partitions, which include binary 0's at the end. That shouldn't make a difference. Normally I'd strip them off and use "regular" img files (which are binary images with nulls stripped from the end), but I don't have a way to easily do that.

I also haven't tested it myself, reason being if it does kill my bootloader (even though I truly don't think it will) I have no way to recover (oh how I miss having a real computer). There are ways to recover from a corrupt bootloader, but I'd have to research how to do that.

Bottom line, given all the above, if someone wants to try it and be the guinea pig pm me and I'll give you a link.
[Nexus 5X General] mishamosher:
Has anyone tried downgrading bootloader/radio by flashing ZIPs in the OP? Did it work?
[Nexus 5X General] Chitown021:
I sent him a PM but haven't gotten the file yet. Once I do I'll give it a shot.
[Nexus 5X General] jcmm11:
It should work. Radio will definitely work. Not 100% certain about bootloader.
[Nexus 5X General] Chitown021:
It worked great! I booted into bootloader just to confirm & it worked and displayed the proper version number.
[Nexus 5X General] mishamosher:
You've performed a downgrade right? From which version to which version, if it is possible to know?

I've a dead USB port, so I beg for this info please. I have no way to recover my phone via fastboot if anything goes bad ):
[Nexus 5X General] jcmm11:
I've performed downgrades on radios for sure. I don't remember if I did on bootloaders. If I did it was a long time ago.

In any case he was replying to the wrong post (I think). He tested out the zip I made, brave soul that he is and the report is that it works.

So, here is a flashable zip for bootloader and radio for 7.1.2

Bootloader version: BHZ11I

Radio: M8994F-2.6.37.2.21

Md5: 16cd60170622ae7e501eda3f5cdb5568

[MENTION=2696201]Chitown021[/MENTION] Thanks very much for testing this for me!

---------- Post added at 03:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:44 AM ----------

Just curious. Why do you want to downgrade bootloader and radio? I know sometimes people find one radio works better than another so they'll switch them around, but why the bootloader?
[Nexus 5X General] mishamosher:
Radio in the hypothetical case that an older version would give me substancial benefits in reception quality. Hasn't been the case by now.

Bootloader to be able to run a stock or custom ROM based on Marshmallow, because Miracast doesn't work in Nougat (yet).

I'm on the latest bootloader/radio (N2G47F image), which were flashed via fastboot. I've never flashed radio/bootloader/vendor by any other means than fastboot in my 5X. Based on the reports of this thread, it seems that upgrading will pretty sure work, and I won't be stuck with an outdated phone with a bad USB port. My 5X is already bootloader unlocked and has a custom ROM up and running, so I can keep flashing things proven that I'm being extra cautious.

So yea, if anyone tried downgrading from Nougat to Marshmallow MTC20F bootloader via ZIP in recovery and it worked, I would appreciate very much the feedback, I've no way to recover my phone if that operation fails on me /:
[Nexus 5X General] Chitown021:
Yes, sorry I replied to the wrong post. I tested the zip file and it worked great to upgrade to the latest radio and bootloader. Thanks again jcmm11, I've done the updates via fastboot on my PC but the zip file makes it so much easier, especially on the go when I don't have my PC handy.
[Nexus 5X General] ensboarder:
Thank you, one file for both radio and bootloader?
[Nexus 5X General] jcmm11:
Yes, same as the previous ones.
[Nexus 5X General] mishamosher:
[MENTION=4487388]jcmm11[/MENTION] I've been checking all the flashable ZIPs in the OP and the bootloader/radio files SHA1 all match with the ones in Bullhead Full OTAs (BFO). The newest bootloader/radio ZIP file posted here has a radio IMG that matches with the one in the N2G47F BFO, but the bootloader files have non-matching hashes.

I'm not puting any doubts in the quality/reliability of the N2G47F bootloader/radio flash ZIP that is posted here.

I'm curious tough, from where came the bootloader files of this ZIP?
[Nexus 5X General] jcmm11:
I installed the bootloader via adb. I then dumped the individual partitions using flashfire. Renamed them to match the existing script.

The radio image was extracted from Google's full install image.

---------- Post added at 10:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:57 PM ----------

Hah. If I had realized the ota had the individual partition files I could have made things a lot easier on myself.

The biggest difference between the files that I included and the ones from the ota are that mine are full partition images. They include all the trailing nulls that are stripped off in the ota images.

Maybe I'll redo the zip, but probably not till the weekend. It works as is so I'm in no rush.
[Nexus 5X General] mishamosher:
I see. You've also mentioned something about stripping 0s from the end of the IMG files. I suppose this hasn't been done in the latest flash zip posted by you.

Interesting that after stripping the 0s from device-dumped images the hashes matches with gooole ZIPs (all the previous ZIP have matching hashes with the official Full OTA ZIPs).

One file has me bugged though, file_contexts.bin. From where has it been extracted? Hash doesn't match with the one from Google Full OTA.
[Nexus 5X General] jcmm11:
I just left the one from the previous zip
[Nexus 5X General] mishamosher:
[MENTION=4487388]jcmm11[/MENTION] I see. I much appreciate all the insights. Seems like creating these ZIPs using Google Full OTAs would accomplish the same (:

I'm just left with the big question of what would happen if you downgrade your bootloader via ZIP in recovery. Would it work OK? Please if some has already tried, share your experience (this dead USB of my 5X is such a pain ._. ).
[Nexus 5X General] jcmm11:
I'll be posting an updated zip later today, as soon as I get to some WiFi. I'll also put up zips that split out the radio and bootloader. Probably start a new thread with a link from here so they're easier to find.

As far as downgrades go: I downgraded one version so I could test the new zips and it worked just fine. No reason it shouldn't, the zips just copy input data and write to the partitions. Unlike the otas, which do full system upgrades, there's no check to prevent a downgrade. So as long as the bootloader is compatible with the system version there should be no issues.
[Nexus 5X General] jcmm11:
New thread started

https://xdaforums.com/nexus-5x/general/nexus-5x-flashable-radio-bootloader-t3598004

I've posted a slightly modified version (using files from ota) as well as splitting out radio and bootloader if you only want to flash one. Also including the previous bootloader/radio (for 7.1.1) since that link went dead in this thread.

Maybe put the motherboard with sm-n910f on sm-m910v?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkGuyver:
That is not a good idea. While both devices may use the same Snapdragon 805 SOC, they use entirely different modems. As the N910F is a international GSM device, while the N910V is design for use with the US Verizon cell carrier.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trimon:

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkGuyver:
Yes, the modem is located on the motherboard.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trimon:

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkGuyver:
I don't know what you mean by that. But if you want to fix your N910F, you need to get a N910F motherboard.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Amar.B:
I think if you're replacing the motherboard it should work without any issues
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkGuyver:
It will work but you will have to use a Verizon SIM card. As the N910V is design to work on Verizon's network.

I've had this come up a couple of times - major PITA - where you have to do a manual reset of AS - loosing updated information from the previous update. I googled that error and searched for it here, but found nothing helpful and no mention of it in the forums here. Anyone have this before or know if there's a way to fix it? I'm running g4 with the tnt 4 or 1537 (?)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Ozark_8125:
Anyone? Bump!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] imfromitaly:
happens to me too

it's sooooo obnoxious. I havent been able to find a pattern yet. It just randomly seems to give me that error. I'm using the htc kaiser w/ wm6. i do sync my pda between my laptop and my desktop. I've done that before with my htc blue angel and never had any problems with it.

it seems to happen at least once a week. the annoying part about it for me is that I have to delete all of my calendar items, contacts, and tasks on my laptop's outlook so I can sync them.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Ozark_8125:
I don't have that problem anymore - and not sure why. I've switched roms so many times I think it might have been related to the rom - or maybe even the dst updates.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] richtrapp:
Work around

According some microsoft posts (users, nothing official) this is caused by syncing email containing sub-folders. I haven't tested other than to stop syncing emails. It works fine if I don't sync Emails.

Good luck!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Myrddin Wyllt:
I've seen a lot of ActiveSync errors (I hope that's what you're talking about, or I'm going to sound very off-topic). Use DotFred's Task Manager to remove all duplicate notifications from your device. 9 of 10 times, this will resolve ActiveSync errors.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Ozark_8125:
I bet you're right. I think it has something to do with snoozing reminders on the pda and the pc and them getting out of sync...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] littomalt:
Solved... no

I red that if you dont sync email it will work - i tried:

While geting errormessage i vent to activ sync and disabled syncing of mail. After that i start synking. This sync ended up doing a resync, wich means tatt all voice commands and keyboard shortcuts went directly in toilet.

I will keep this setting for a while and se of error comes back.

Please keep positing possible solutions, this sync error is SO frustrating
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] higherbearts:

Hello!

I've recently completed the first book of my text adventure game after a year of work, and I would be very grateful if you could give it a try and give me some feedback. In this game you play as an ordinary guy trying to win a mage tournament against the most powerful mages in the world, in the hopes of winning the grand prize, and using it to fulfill your lifelong dream of becoming a mage yourself.

As you progress, you will also get to know the inhabitants of the continent that the tournament takes place on, and you will learn that a person called the Creator established several utopias in this realm a few hundred years ago, where animals and humans could live in harmony, and where food was created through magic. What you will get to experience throughout the game, however, is the downfall of these utopias, and you can even choose to save them from destruction if you so desire.

Besides the traditional choice making, you also have stats you can level up, and there are different checks in the game to see if you have the necessary level to take a certain action. For example, if your ancient languages level is high enough, you can understand when the animals or monsters speak.

Here is the link to the game: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.magiumgames.magium

I hope you'll all enjoy playing this game as much as I enjoyed making it!

Cheers!

[Android Apps and Games] iamelton:
its nice game to play.. thx..
[Android Apps and Games] Nemeean_lion:
Unfortunately, it looks like Google Play purchases are unavailable in Montenegro, and this game relies exclusively on IAPs for income (the game doesn't have any ads). Aside from that, if I were to publish the game there without an option to pay to unlock the next books faster, I'd be sure to get negative reviews from people. I'll publish it there if Google ever makes purchases available in that region.
[Android Apps and Games] czarkoff:
Makes sense. Maybe you could consider making an alternative version without IAPs, so that you could sell it from Play Store and XDA store with an upfront price? Or maybe there are other IAP providers that do not depend on Google's slow expansion? I have no idea how practical that would be, but at least you would be able to reach a few more people...
[Android Apps and Games] Nemeean_lion:
I can't really sell it with an upfront price because the game is still in development. The first two books and first four chapters of book 3 are available, which all amount to around 600k words on all paths, but the series will have 5 books or more, and I don't want to ask for the full price now, because it takes a long time to write these.

I had the game up on the amazon store for some time, but there were barely any downloads coming from there, so I pulled it out, because it wasn't worth the extra effort to port a new version for that store.

When the whole story is finished, I'm planning to put a full-priced version of the game on Steam, and maybe then I'll also consider some other stores, but that will be years from now.
[Android Apps and Games] czarkoff:
Ok, good luck and sorry for noise.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rattrocker:
Hello all!

I've had a family member brick their Verizon S5 because they thought they were being smart and now I've been given the task of fixing it. The S5 was on the stock PF4 build previously (no root and no unlocked bootloader) and then had the stock OC4 tar from SamMobile flashed onto it via Odin which obviously bricked it. Furthermore they flashed the PD1 stock tar on top of that thinking that being on the same Android version would fix the problem so right now I have a phone with PD1 firmware but a PF4 bootloader. The phone currently will boot to the setup menu but has a continuous stream of error messages that makes the phone unusable (if I were able to get it into MTP transfer mode I could potentially have Kies 3 fix this).

Unfortunately, SamMobile doesn't have the PF4 tar file online yet and I don't have a spare Verizon S5 to exploit Kies with to get the tar file (I was able to get an encrypted version of the PF4 build using Kies 3's feature that pre-downloads the most recent firmware automatically but it lacks any file extensions and I've no clue how to make it usable).

I know that people have access to the stock components of PF4 like flashable tars for the modem and bootloader and even a flashable zip for custom recoveries of the entire stock PF4 build so I was wondering if anyone could help me out with getting a stock PF4 tar file (if not I will just have to wait till SamMobile puts up the file).

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Edit: Found the firmware via Samsung-Updates and fixed the phone so help no longer needed

[General Questions and Answers] Chung_newtrino:
Last year, Jawbone stopped the support for the original Jawbone Jambox. But they didn't just stop the support, they also removed the ability to update to the lastest available firmware and also change the voice. I bricked my Jambox by trying to update to the latest firmware using the Jawbone Updater and the firmware for the Big (or Mini, I can't remember) Jambox. So now, there is no sound nor light when I turn on the Jambox, but my PC still recognizes it: it makes that sound when a new device is plugged in and the Jambox updater says it's plugged in. This gives me hope that there is still hope to unbrick the speaker. I'm sure someone must be in the same situation as I am, but has anyone figured out a way to fix it ?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willowpc:
Good night guys, so there's my problem:

I was on DN 0.6.1 custom ROM, TWRP 3.0.2.0 and rooted. Today, i wanted to go back to stock ROM, so, I downloaded the stock firmware throught sammobile, and tried to install it throught ODIN 3.11, but it's stopped at system.img, and remained stuck in it for a long time. so i decided to restart the phone..

Then it's showed the follow message:

firmware upgrade encountered an issue note 4. Please select recovery mode on kies and try again.

So, i tried to re-flash throught ODIN, but stucked at system.img again, after it, I downloaded KIES and tried restore it, but it's stopped at 2%.

I wasn't abble to go to recovery mode, only download mode, so, i extracted the ROM file, and flashed only the boot.img through ODIN. Now it's boot to recovery...

I wiped data/cache, but the following error showed up:

E: Failed to mount system (invalid argument).

and now i can't find a solution for it.. tried to do amost anything that i could find on the internet, but none solved my problem...

I'm wanting to flash PIT + CSC + PDA file, using the repartition option on ODIN, but i'm afraid that may brick my phone for ever...

I'm following this tutorial by now: http://xdaforums.com/note-4/orig-development/note-4-pit-files-repartiton-f-g-c-t-w8-t3282641
