Hey guys, I just got my 8525 and was wondering is there is a way to tell if the phone has been water damaged? I see that on the battery, there is this little sticker that has red polka dots on a white background. I know usually red means water damaged but this one is polka dotted. Does this mean that the phone has been exposed to water?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] fone_fanatic:
no, thats just a warranty type seal.. if that seal is tampered they know you opened the battery.

To check for water damage, remove your battery and sim card. On the circuit board under the simcard you should see a small piece of felt type material. If thats not white then your phone could of been subject to water damage. I forgot if it turns blue or red when that pad gets wet, but it should be white.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] cmgarcia:
Yes, the red polka dot thing under the SIM means it was water damaged; I know because I just dropped mine in a cup of tea. :( Wish me luck, guys.

Dropped mine in a mud puddle at work couple of weeks ago. Screen turned white buttons wouldn't work, even to turn it off.

No problems with the grip of the S-pen. Shape not an issue. The issue is that the pen itself is not actually essential to a regular user.

1 Honestly I can swype faster than I can write so handwriting is just a novelty.

2 If you have some artistic use, it's pretty good for drawing.

3 It's handy if you don't want to touch the screen with grubby hands and precise with selection

Did some searching around and found this thread.

http://xdaforums.com/honor-5x/help/unlock-bootloader-issues-kiw-t3411032

The information is here:

While this works for some - it failed to work for me. Maybe because I didn't enable a little option on the screen about allowing OEM unlock. Maybe. But I (stupidly?) ended up where I was sent in this external guide.

http://www.modaco.com/forums/topic/...our-honor-5x-official-and-unofficial-methods/

Basically went to this site and used their tool (cost me USD$16) to wipe the FRP.

https://www.dc-unlocker.com

Maybe if you enable the option about the OEM unlock in Developer Mode this isn't necessary..........

Hopefully this helps someone. So to outline - let me show what I did - including errors.

Wipe the phone / factory reset.

Reboot and ensure everything is removed. Factory reset again.

Tried the commands - got error.

Did search for FRP unlock and found site.

Followed instructions on site which led me to download DC Unlocker and pay for their FRP unlock.

Reboot and setup phone (with no accounts or password or fingerprints).

Enabled "OEM UNLOCK" in developer options (which I didn't see before.........)

Run commands (they all now work).

Bootloader unlocked successfully.

Device factory resets.

Setup device again skipping accounts/password/fingerprints.

Follow instructions for flashing TWRP and finishing up.

Complete.

Again - hopefully this helps someone.

Explain please? What I'm putting forward is some information for persons that may not be as mobile tech inclined. Or persons over-eager like myself (actually bricked the phone and brought it back from boot-loop). While some information may be common knowledge for persons who do this often (or devs), persons just getting into it may make mistakes. Don't want them to do stuff and end up bricking the device.

[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] khat17:
I agree. But I don't recall seeing anything in the original instructions about the FRP which shows / states ensuring OEM unlock is checked. Unless I missed it. I DO recall seeing it somewhere else in another thread where someone mentioned it. But I still don't know if the case is enabling it means you don't need to use the DC Unlocker program.
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] thilak devraj:
you dont need dc unlocker, unless you have not checked "oem unlock" option in dev. options..(thats also only case if you were on lollipop)

and if you are on mm, you dont even need to check that option,
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] khat17:
Thanks for that info. Next one I get my hands on will try that out and see.
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] thilak devraj:
what happened with the current one??
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] khat17:
I had basically bricked it and brought it back. Think the one I got had some issues, because I couldn't update it at all. Even before rooting it wouldn't update. Then I realized that when the update was running it rebooted into TWRP - so I flashed back the stock recovery and tried again. No luck. This was done with disabling OEM unlock as well and still nothing. So I got an UPDATE.APP as well as a nandroid that I believe was supposed to be able to update the phone. None worked.

But now that you've confirmed that there's no need to pay for the bootloader unlock, I would go ahead and do some experimenting if you suggest. For science. But I'm a little reluctant to try and re-lock the bootloader and then unlock it again. If you can confirm or even partly guarantee that it works however, I'll do some messing around with it. For science. Otherwise, I've managed to get the device to a working state now - wouldn't want to mess with it much.. Only if I can try something else to get EMUI 4 on it.
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] thilak devraj:
thats something wiered,, you shouldve got it into service center before rooting, saying that it wasnt updating....

I live outside of the country of purchase. Doubt I can send it back now anyways. And I got it working so it's fine.

how did you manage to get working??
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] khat17:

Yeah. So after TWRP was flashed, I did a restore from a backup I found online. And that's how I managed to get it up. The restore was for 151 not 331.
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] thilak devraj:
anyway, nice to see that youve got it working,...
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] khat17:
That's the main thing. But if you or anyone else has ideas on how to maybe get EMUI4 on it, I'll try and see. After a backup of course.

[T-Mobile Note 7  Questions & Answers] twe90kid:
Hey,

I'm looking to swap to Note 7. I've always been accustomed to root and have all my phones backup with Titanium backup. The app allows me to backup all data including the data of each app. I would like to switch to the new Note, but have certain apps which I want to preserve the data for. For example, I used Naver LINE app (chat), Whatsapp, and WeChat which has some chat data which I want to transfer over. With Titanium Backup, I can do this without problem. Will Smart Switch be able to move everything or will it just transfer the app, but I loose the data?
[T-Mobile Note 7  Questions & Answers] aznmode:
Smart switch has not been able to do this for me. It just copies the app and it takes forever. I have to use helium. But you need to buy the premium version though as the free version is limited.

I set up fresh. Only used smart switch to transfer pics and SMS.

[T-Mobile Note 7  Questions & Answers] matsuyamakaze:
All you have to do is use the transfer plug provided with thr note 7 you plug it into a micro usb plug the micro into your old device the usb c adapter and it starts to transfer everything you have on the phone. Doesn't take long depends how many gigs.

I know Helium Premium will do it without root because I have done it before. It restores all data and apps at the same time. It's a great app and in my opinion its comparable to Titanium. I haven't used it in a long time, but it worked like a charm last time when I used it.

It will copy the apps but the not the data. For example facebook, amazon. It will not restore your login info and you will need to log in again. Same with games. It will not restore your score etc.

I can confirm that the statement above is pretty much correct.

I effectively tried all the transfer methods they have.

1) phone to phone with cable

2) phone to phone via wifi direct connection

3) phone to sdcard to phone via backup to and restore from scard

4) phone to computer to phone via smart switch on a Windows computer
[T-Mobile Note 7  Questions & Answers] NXLTrauma25:
Just like the other guy who made a thread about wifi performance. I would get very slow wifi performance every time I used smart switch. Once I set it up clean I was fine. In the end I decided that smart switch doesn't copy app data anyway so why use it.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Questions & Answers] AmphybiouS:
Hi guys, I use this thread to tell you my experience with smart switch.

I thinked that this app can backup all the phone settings and all the apps settings..

But.. not?

I have a Galaxy S8 that i had to reset to factory defaults, I have restored backup hoping that all the settings of phone and apps will be restored.. but it has partially restored settings and only the apps (without the related settings)..

What I can do to backup all the settings from phone and apps to avoid losing one hour to manually restore phone when I reset to default?

I have a Moto X2 with Android 6.0 and TWRP 3.0.2

I just turned on full disk encryption and set a pattern screen lock.

The first time I enter TWRP, it asked me for the pattern. However, after that, when I reboot into TWRP, it doesn't ask for pattern anymore.

I can't find any option about forget password or ask every time in twrp.

I am afraid others can just enter TWRP and copy my files through ADB or MTP. So is there a way to solve that?

BTW. I read the principle of Android full disk encryption. I guess TWRP already stored my master key somewhere, but I can't find it.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tech3475:
I've been given a family members Tab 2 10.1 (GT-P5110) to look at because it kept rebooting after a couple of minutes.

So far I believe the problem is that the emmc is failed/stuck in read only mode as any modifications are lost (including recovery wipe and custom flashing).

As of now I do not have any ADB access because it will not save my computers key/permission.

I've been given carte blanche to do anything if possible and I'm wondering if there is some way to force the device to boot from a micro sd card?

I casually came across a page (can't remember the link) which involved removing the emmc from the motherboard but I believe that was a different model anyway.

Any suggestions are welcome, thank you.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android-Andi:
No way. Booting from sdcard would need some changes on boot.img, but impossible if your emmc is read only.

Only an emmc firmware update or emmc replacement will solve your problem. @html6405 is able to help you, but you would need to send your tab to him to fix it as there is no easy solution for this.

I recently left my Cingular 8125 in Bootloader mode over night, connected to my PC not knowing that it couldn't charge while in that mode. I woke up, and couldn't turn it on; I eventually found out that the battery couldn't charge while in Bootloader mode.

The only solutions that I've seen posted are to: (A) Get another charged battery, (B) Charge your battery in a working Wizard

Both solutions aren't possible for me at the moment... what I needed to know is if there is a way to charge using some funky wiring rig using standard AA batteries to power it for about 7-10min. or so.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] jeffla:
Cut one end off an old usb cable. Then plug the usb cable into your computers usb port and touch the black wire to the (-) on the batt and the red wire to the (+) on the battery. It takes a few minutes, but the battery will charge. Then put the battery back in the phone and boot into the os. Then charge the phone as usual.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] zcink:
You can jump some wires to your battery from a battery charger to get some power to your battery --- need 5.7 volts -- positive to positve, negative to negative but I would not recommend doing this. Your battery is a lithium Ion which takes a special charge. Take it to a Cingular Store and ask the clerk if they could just charge it up in another phone for a couple of hours. I'm sure they won't mind.

Lithium Ion batteries are fussy about how they are charged, so its best to do it in another phone or a charger made for your battery.

Cheers!

Instead, I have to change it to 23.0.3.

Can anyone shed any light on why this might be? I dont really understand what these settings even are so stand very little chance of figuring this out!

Do you see your device in the device selection window when you press the green play button?

If you don't, you may check on the Module settings/Flavors/Min Sdk Version/ whether it is beyond your phone Android OS version. If you're not sure about the number, you can check on https://source.android.com/source/build-numbers.html.

Hope this helps you.
