[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Suiken01:
no no, I am asking is it ok to flash twrp (retrieve bricked bootloop note 3) and also flash to stock firmware with a dead battery, USB should provide power but read somwhere that I should have at least 50 to 60% power

can't really charge it because it will turn on the phone and goes into bootloops (well I guess maybe just leave it but it will charge very slowly I guess?)
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Yes, flashing twrp should be fine. Can the phone charge the battery when the phone is not powered on?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Suiken01:
when phone is off and I charge it, it will turn it on by itself and goes into bootloops :( (battery is ok, but phone is messed up)

I think ONE other time the screen went somewhere and just stayed there, forgot what it was only one time, but screen won't turn off.

either case I guess I can just leave it there maybe? let it charge but screen is always on and bootloops keeps going, maybe won't charge at all since it keeps bootloops, or charge very slowly when the screen is always on? also can't see the battery % since it's in bootloops.

(oh I can go to recovery mode or download mode for either case, maybe leave phone connected to USB there and let it charge?)

oh for twrp is ok? maybe after twrp I will just leave it connected to pc and let it charge 30 min or so then do flash back to stock firmware later, can I do that? (also if not enough battery while doing the twrp or flash back to stock firmware, I can brick it for good and can't fix it?)
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
It would be best to flash twrp, power off the phone from the TWRP menu, then charge it. It the phone powers on by itself after flashing from twrp, charge the phone from twrp.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Suiken01:
will definitely try that.

I want to transfer vids/pics from phone to desktop, where in TWRP do I use to do that? is it "backup" so far I am just looking at videos.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Boot into twrp, mount the data partition, connect phone to computer, copy files.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Suiken01:
ok I see it.

apps that I installed on the phone I can't copy over to pc and then copy over the a new rom later right? need to re-download them all over

so my phone is in bootloops, when I use odin to install new stock rom....I need to use "wipe" feature from TWRP to wipe out everything in the phone before installing the new stock rom right? many videos I saw never did that, they just install the new rom right away from odin.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Wiping with twrp is not necessary before flashing with Odin; however, it's important to perform a factory wipe in stock recovery before booting the stock rom for the first time.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Suiken01:
TWRP didn't boot up, went to tmobile screen then froze there. but before I was updating from 4.3 kitkat to 4.4 kitkat and battery fell out, guess I should try 4.4 twrp? but do I need to uninstall 4.3 first with odin? or just install 4.4 it's ok?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Open Odin, uncheck everything except f reset time, flash twrp 2.87, when you see the word reset in the status window, remove battery, replace battery, use the buttons to boot into recovery.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Suiken01:
actually I tried TWRP 4.4 and it went smoothly. able to get my pics/vids out thank god!

but now tried to flash back to stock 4.3, got the rom from stockroms.net and at md5 check it checked ok, but when I start it it failed.

so couldn't do much I just close odin, unplugged phone and turned off the phone (even tho it said downloading, don't turn off target, did I damage anything?)

but phone can still go into download mode, if I don't press anything when powering up it says firmware update encountered an issue. please select recovery mode in kies and try again.

so try another firmware and try to flash in odin again? I just got firmware from sammobile, just dl not long ago.

thanks again
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Get a stock rom from Sammobile.com.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Suiken01:
still the same error with the rom from sammobile, odin fails about 3 seconds into the flash.

some more info the rom I want to get is 4.3 jellybean for note 3, odin I used is the latest version. I moved the rom md5 to odin folder. odin folder also got soem other file odin3.ini, ss_dl.dll odin notes.xlsx, some plugin.zip. those don't interfere with anything right? got the odin from http://odindownload.com/SamsungOdin/#.V_TLaMnMQ7t

what do I do? I watched so many videos and followed the instructions. this is taking forever lol.

should I try an older version of odin?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Odin flashes a Tar file .

You do not put it in top-up a folder.

Download from sammobile extract Tar file .Place on desktop.

Open Odin in AP locate tar file .boot phone top-up download mode .connect usb cable .Wait until connected and press start .
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Suiken01:
thanks let me try that.

also uncheck "auto reboot" in odin right? so when it's done I can boot phone in recovery mode and select Wipe data/factory reset for the 1st time?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Suiken01:
the factory wipe in stock recovery before booting the stock rom for the first time, that's only needed when after flash the phone won't boot up, or stuck in logo or bootloops right?

but to do that you will need to uncheck "auto reboot" in odin right? or it will boot up right away. but so many people say leave it checked, so I am so confused :(
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
You can leave auto reboot checked and do a factory reset if the phone doesn't boot.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Suiken01:
still getting FAIL

[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mommy2Nevaeh05:
Hi I'm new here but hopefully someone can help! First i am on Cricket network. A few weeks ago I got the marshmallow 6.1 update and everything went fine in downloading. I went to use my camera and took pictures just fine. Now when switching over to video, the screen goes dark. I am able to record but it looks like I am in a dark room(even outside):confused:! The video is very dark EVEN if I put the flash on, it doesn't help at all. As soon as I switch back to camera the screen brighten back up like it should be! There is no settings to adjust this. It only happened after the update. Any help would be appreciated!

[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] Menneisyys:
Yes, we all already know (see the sheer number of articles and rants I've published on the matter) most Windows Mobile phones, Pocket PC’s and Smartphones alike, lack call recording capabilities: they, in most cases (the only exception is the O2 XDA Flame, which only records the remote party, not the local one), only record the local party. It’s only very few current Windows Mobile phones that do record both parties at a good quality; most importantly, the brick and not very well selling HTC x7500 (Athena) Pocket PC and the VERY incapable, albeit, at least, cheap HTC Oxygen (s310) MS Smartphone. (In addition, some O2 XDA and Asus Pocket PC phones are also able to record calls, but they are in no way so broadly distributed / widely used as HTC’s products.) I’m absolutely dissatisfied by HTC because their current flagship model, the Kaiser (the AT&T Tilt) doesn’t support call recording either (in addition to its other, numerous (!) problems and omissions.)

Now, over at MoDaCo, some decent tips have been published. They’re certainly worth giving a read. They involve quite a bit of additional work, but, at least, they let for recording your calls, should you really need to do this and you don’t want to get a call recording-capable, inexpensive, separate handset (for example, the Oxygen or an older Nokia Symbian phone) to do the stuff.

Introduction

Here is my first customised rom based on Marshmallow 6.0.1 by Sony!

The name 'AGGROSLIM' came from the fact that the rom has a rather aggressive debloat that consists of roughly 90 apps removed from the base rom! The rom also has nifty features such as pre-installed xposed modules (that I think will appeal to most users), a custom camera and lots more!

Images

Coming soon!

Features

-Fully Deodexed

-Aggressive Debloat (~90 apps, 220 apps in total on the ROM)

-SuperSU 2.76-System Mode

-TWRP 3.0.2.0 (RecRoot V4)

-SuperUser Mod

-Cyberian Camera IV

-Font Selector (via addon, see below!)

-Xperia X Themes

-Xperia X SystemUI

-Xposed Installer App and Modules (manual flashing of Xposed Framework Required: Link Here!)

Installation Instructions

First of all, backup your current rom! I am not responsible for any mishaps due to the inability of following instructions properly, although I will try to help you out!

Reboot in recovery

1. Wipe System, Data, Cache and Dalvik Cache.

No problem , A new version is coming out, Only 1 zip to flash!
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] moman2000:
[MENTION=5862770]hamzxoxo[/MENTION] Currently compressing the files into the flashable zip, the files itself came to 3.9GB!

Maximum Compression is being used to make it as small as possible!
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] 47un:
:confused:

Hey if you debloated it, how come the size is still 1.6gigs ?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] moman2000:
So the BASE ROM is the rom itself 1.6GB The system alone is around 1.4GB

Then the AGGROSLIM ZIP contains the all the cool features and deodexed files which get copied to /system
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] moman2000:
Taking time! Will need to test too!

I am currently making an All-In-One Zip, so all you have to flash is 1 zip which has everything from the Base ROO and AGGROSLIM combined! It will take quite a while, but it is worth it! :D:p;)

Ok since no one else is trying to make this work. I have so far got the SM-355 odin on the SM-357t. At this point the tablet boots up just fine. The screen does not respond.

+1 on this, I am also having constant issues with my gps, it seems to be pretty random as it would sometimes lock immediately while the other time i have to wait up to 15min.

I am currently on 6.4.27 from xiaomi.eu as it seems to be the one of very few roms where download transfer rate is not an issue.

[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] kemalafiantoro:
I think it's software related regarding the GPS issues in mi5

Because right now I'm on the custom ROM, the latest multirom, the GPS works flawlessly with no issues at all when I'm using google maps to navigate. Meanwhile the latest global stable has a very bad GPS performance, unusable even.

So I guess I'm gonna keep using this multirom instead of the official stable release, and hope that the devs who're responsible for developing the global release finally fix the issue in the next global release :good:

I had gps problem with all v8 miui rom, cannot get gps locked on google maps. when using gps test the fone only see 5 satellites. No fix solution working yet!
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] wiadrovit:
Guys,

Couldn't it be that a certain batch of MI5s has been manufactured with a faulty GPS module? I have tested it on countless rom versions both MIUI and AOSP/CM. It is always the same, my Mi5 takes ridiculous 20-30mins to obtain a lock and then loses it every 2-3mins.

The only occasion when GPS was working fine was few days after I've bought the phone and took an 800km trip, it was stable all the time and I was very happy with its performance as it obtained a lock almost instantly. I was on 6.4.27 from xiaomi.eu back then. Problems have started when I was driving back (and I didn't change ROM during that time) but it was nothing compared to what I'm experiencing now, I am under impression that this is getting worse with each day.

I am back on 6.4.27 now and it's not any better.The GPS is unusable in its current state and I'm considering sending my phone to the seller for a replacement.

My phone was manufactured in May 2016 (says the box), it's a 32GB black version, could you guys please let me know when were yours produced so that we can (or can't) establish a common pattern here?

Cheers.

EDIT:

The issue seems resolved with the latest update (6.9.1 from xiaomi.eu). GPS on my Mi5 has been stable for the last 4 days with an average of ~23 satellites detected, it takes around 30s to obtain a fix. That's a huge improvement, keep it up and we might see other issues resolved once and for all :)
