[Nexus 6P General] Zeuszoos:
* I installed BusyBox to /system/xbin using the app's install.

* I opened my Terminal app and typed su.

* I granted it access.

* I ran the exact command.

It just gave me another prompt as you said it should. But the File Manager that I have used on many rooted devices still won't let me check the box in its settings for Root Explore, even though it prompted me and I granted SuperUser access.

I don't get what I'm missing here.

UPDATE: I am now able to Apply Hosts in AdAway.

However, my File Manager that I have used in Root mode on every device still won't allow me to turn on "Root Explorer" mode. It did prompt me for SuperUser access and I did grant it (and double checked), but when I go to choose that option in the apps' Preferences, it says my device is not Rooted.

Any ideas?

Thank You.
[Nexus 6P General] Zeuszoos:
Hi,

Okay, got it! Cancel my distress call. :)

Thank You!
[Nexus 6P General] Zeuszoos:
Hi,

Had to redo my phone and while I can apply Hosts in AdAway (not being able to is a sure sign /System isn't Writable), when I try to make a change to my Build.Prop file found in /System it won't stay changed. I am using Nougat 7.0 with Magisk and every other Root app works fine.

Just for kicks, I tried running the commands you posted to see if it would help, but this time it didn't take the command (I do have BusyBox installed). Instead, it responded with; "Invalid Argument" as follows;

"mounting /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system on /system failed: Invalid Argument"

Then the prompt changed to "255|elsa:/ #"

Any ideas? It appears to see that BusyBox is installed, but it isn't working. Also, how do I check where my BusyBox is installed?

Thanks,

Dave

I just got a new sim card and after replacing the old one, I cut it in peaces and threw into the trash bin. Few moments later I realised I f*cked up... All my contacts were on the old sim card and google contact synch was off. My phone is fully rooted, maybe I can restore at least some of the contacts from cache or something? Some of them were really important. Please help :(

Hey everyone,

Got permission to unlock bootloader few days back, but cant unlock due to error at 50%(account different or something like that). According to some users i should wait a few days to try it again. (Already tried i.mi.com trick with no luck)

Next, i want to flash latest snapshot of cm13 official, but apparently certain fp sensors(goodix) doesnt work there. And i saw there is Santosh unofficial cm13 build with goodix fix. So how do i found out which sensor i have? So i can flash a cm13 build which is sure to work. Also,is it true led notification has no breathing in cm13?

Thx and have a nice day....i for sure am having bad day everyday using miui..

Hey guys, I bought a used Wallaby and the company that sold it to me told me that I could clean off black pen marks on the screen using rubbing alcohol and that any buffs or scratches (I don't know if he's talking about on the screen or casing itself) can be repaired by using car wax. Is what he said true. Is the rubbing alcohol and car wax on the screen okay? Thanks guys.
[General Topics] CharlyV:
I recomment not to use any car wax or display polish for the touchscreen.

The surface finish of the touchscreen can be very sensitive.
[General Topics] johnny13oi:
Would rubbing alcohol be safe cleaning the screen?
[General Topics] CharlyV:
Hard to say.

Rubbing alcohol with 70-95% vol. can be also to strong for the touchscreen surface.

I doesn´t have any experience in practice. :)

I would clean mine with some optical lens wipes but don't think it would remove scratches, only dirt.

as anybody got a clue when the nougat update will be rolling out to the moto G4 and was wondering if it will be any longer this time around since lenovo owns motorola compared to last year which say the moto devices receive the marshmallow update rather fast thanks.
[Moto G4 Questions & Answers] Tel864:
I've seen some estimates that say from the end of this year to sometimes early next year. Motorola is pretty good with pushing the updates out so I would expect 3 to 4 months from June when "N" was released. If it's a branded Moto, then it's anyone's guess since the service providers aren't too speedy with updates.

Hello, i recently bought a Honor 5x brand new from Amazon but my GPS is not working.

I updated my phone to Marshmallow but it is still not working.

If i open Pokémon Go or any other app that requires Location it stucks at "Searching for GPS".

What should i do? :(
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] HonorUSA_Eric:
Honor 5X GPS Issue

It is a possibility that it's your service provider that's causing you the issue. The best tell is if this "Searching for GPS" issue happens in certain areas. If that's the case, then we advise contacting your service provider for troubleshooting steps. If it's not your service provider, we advise checking your Settings > Advanced settings > Location access. Please make sure your "Access my location" tab in "Location access" is swiped on. If these troubleshooting steps didn't help, please give our Huawei Support Team a call at 1-888-548-2934. (ED)
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] JT-on:
Sounds faulty. I'd return it for a new one
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] Madbezier:
I went outside my house and it started working, i guess GPS doesn't work inside my house or i'm too close to my router.
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] Madbezier:
Yeah that's exactly what happens, i get "Searching for GPS" inside my house, if i go outside it works (i get ocassional red GPS disconections but i think that's normal on Pokemon Go).

I'm using a random SIM card, will be changing my provider today but i thought GPS had nothing to do with the provider, and it was supposed to work even if you don't have a SIM card.

*** Good Lock Nano 24.0.16-20170411 ****

I made a modified version of Samsung's Good Lock for my Galaxy S6 ROM. But I decided to provide it as broken-out apk files and TWRP-flashable zip, so that it can be used by anyone being in charge of a Good-Lock-compatible device and ROM.

So what's different compared to original Good Lock?

rounded recents (for traditional recents)

rounded notifications

centered clock

WiFi icon on left

Cellular icon on left

removed unlock text

quick pulldown from right side

reduced notification panel paddings

carrier label on lockscreen on right

statusbar on home and lock screen have the same height

remove annoying notification if no user routine exists

enable System UI Tuner (Settings > Applications)

hide from Launcher (it's accessible from expanded status bar)

short click on status bar battery icon: screen of

long click on status bar battery icon: show power menu

Cyanogen Mod Music Visualization

other minor adjustments

=== Variants ===

Good-Lock-NanoViz: all the above

Good-Lock-ZeroViz: all the above + zero padding in notification panel

Good-Lock-Original: unmodified version

=== Installation ===

Before the first installation, backup your current SystemUI.apk in:

/system/priv-app/SystemUI/SystemUI.apk

Then either download and install the desired apk file or flash through TWRP using the zip.

If you want to use Cyanogen Mod Music Visualization you need Visualization-Settings.apk, too (auto-installed when using the zip file). Then open the app from Launcher, activate and choose your desired visualization style.

Note: flashing using the zip will clear the cache, so the first boot afterwards will take a bit.

=== Known Issues ===

don't create a new Routine, it might cause Good Lock to uninstall itself

if you don't see the Cyanogen Mod Music Visualization, reboot into recovery, delete the following file

/data/system/users/0/runtime-permissions.xml

and restart. Note: all apps will ask you for permissions again after doing so, sorry.

you tell me

b) The text color is set dependently on the color pattern you have choosen, no way (yet?) to change it, unless Sammy decides to do different.

c) I uploaded new versions of the standalone apk files. They should now proplery be installable on all ROMs. Please download and try again. Flashable zip is unchanged.

Hello guys;

So i just bought my new One plus 3 yesterday and i feel from the first day of using it an electricity in my hands

so im worried is that dangerous for health?

and this electricity happens cause of the dash charging?

and can be avoided if i use a normal charger?

and BTW i did not use it while charging.

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] musv:
Good afternoon everybody,

First a short story. If it's not interesting, just skip this section:

In the last holiday I dropped my O+O into the swimming pool. After a couple of days drying it restarted. The simcard slot wasn't working anymore. But all the rest kept working fine. I noticed the battery was draining down faster. I had to recharge the phone every day. For that reason I bought at aliexpress a new one. The new battery worked. But to my surprise it lasted not more than 2 days until I head to recharge it. So I found my phone several times completely uncharged.

Some weeks later after the phone was once again completely uncharged it stopped charging. Even with 12 hours plugged to the power outlet the "The battery is too low" picture didn't disappear. I tried the power adapter from a S4, tried to charge it at a pc. Didn't change.

The compact data:

Phone isn't charging, shows always "The battery is too low".

Pressing the power-button resets the phone, the Oneplus logo appears. After about 10 seconds it resets again. (endless loop)

Trying to do a factory reset - not sure. Without power cable nothing happens, with cable plugged it resets every few seconds.

Can boot into fastboot mode

In fastboot mode the phone is not recognized at the pc (lsusb, dmesg)

adb devices doesn't list the device

Is there a chance at least to access the internal memory card? I would like to save my photos.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kurtsi:
There could be some water damage on the motherboard. In that case you are probably screwed :(

If you have some technical skills you could disassemble the phone and see if there is still water inside. I'm not responsible for anything you do...

If only the usb-connector/flex is damaged then it's easy to replace.

I don't have any ideas about the internal memory whether it can be restored or no..
