[General Questions and Answers] testeriamtester:
Today at morning i installed on my Xiaomi Redmi 1s WCDMA (armani) Mokee 2016.09.02(release). And all was fine. I successfully connected to my home WI-FI and i successfully download few apps from play market. But few hours later when i'm connecting to my WI-FI (i didn't change any setting on my router) my phone tell me that "It's connected, but has no internet". So i'l try to google something and internet connection works properly. Then i run video on Youtube and it too works fine. So question is - why my phone tells me about WI-FI that "It's connected, but has no internet" but internet is and it works.

I flashed Nougat's factory image on my 5x a week ago. After playing for a while i noticed the encryption change option in 'Developer Options'.

Also, read that new devices will be coming with File based encryption since it allows direct boot mode.

Is there any performance difference if change the encryption to 'File based' ? I read few user reviews and they were saying that changing encryption to file based did improved little performance.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noidea24:
I'm also interested in this. So bump for a more knowledgeable member to comment.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nidstang:
I think this thread proved pretty conclusively that there is no real world performance benefit in decrypting.

I activated file encryption on my N5X, specifically to allow for direct boot. I had N with full disk encryption on my N5X for about 72 hours before switching. I see no performance difference -- it was smooth before, and it is smooth now.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sfhub:
I doubt there is noticeable performance difference.

The main benefit is if your phone reboots in your backpack, it'll boot to the lock screen instead of being stuck asking you for your pattern/pin/password and basically being a useless phone if you don't notice it rebooted.

If you don't have the phone configured to act that way, then it probably isn't of real benefit, currently. There may be additional benefits later on or perhaps with the workplace contexts.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK00409:
Thanks for your comment.

In that case i think i will be switching to File-based encryption to enjoy direct boot feature.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ABSathe:
Hey but can you tell me why the phone reboots in pocket ?

My phone also reboots in midnight when I set a fingerprint on it .

So will decryption solve this issue ?

Thanks in advanced
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sfhub:
My phone never reboots, but some people have set ups that do. It is usually some bug in Android that is triggered by some software you are running or there is some data corruption in your system.

First thing to try would be booting in "safe mode"

https://support.google.com/nexus/answer/2852139?hl=en

If the reboots stop, then it is some app you are running.

If that doesn't narrow it down, try factory reset, then install under new android account, install a couple of apps at a time, until you see reboot. If it reboots right away on fresh install on new account, then you might have hardware issue.

I seriously doubt decrypting your user partition will help with your reboots, but you are welcome to try. If it does help, it will probably be coincidence because you had to format user partition to decrypt your phone which is equivalent of factory reset.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ABSathe:
Actually this issue is there from the first day I started using my phone .. but booting in safe mode does not give any reboots so far and also fingerprint is working nicely too

So I guess I will try factory reset .. can I do it using the option already present in settings ? Or should I flash a factory image ?

Thanks
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sfhub:
Before you do factory reset, I suggest you get rid of any pin/pattern/password you might have configured. This will disable the factory reset protection, just to be on safe side.

You can do it from android.

If you say this problem was there from beginning, then it probably migrated over from existing account restoration of apps. You might want to try installing onto a new google account to test that theory out. The install a couple of apps at a time while verifying everything remains stable.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neu - smurph:
Hi,

Do folks think that switching to File Based Encryption might help avoid this issue - a decryption failure on reboot with Factory Reset the only solution? My phone is 13 months old and now out of warranty and this has happened 5 times to date - once about 6 months ago, once about 3 months ago and then worryingly 3 times in the last month.

Important. Root required.....

Hey everyone,I saw so many posts regarding Android & iOS that the Mac address is changing to 02:00:00:00:00 and WiFi is greyed out. None of the WiFi or hotspot not turning on.I get the same problem in my Condor and I searched a lot for the solution.I go for factory reset, full reset, flashing stock, radio etc.... But nothing helped. Some strange solution was to hit the back of the phone, put it in the freezer etc...I tried many other ways and that worked only was putting a file named

WCNSS_qcom_wlan_factory_nv.bin

In to the folder / persist....... But it worked me for exactly 1 day and the problem still continued.

So I tried a new method which helped me a lot........

Steps

1.Take a back up of folders /persist and/data/misc/WiFi

2.unzip the below attachment and put the file WCNSS_qcom_wlan_factory_nv.bin

To /Persist folder.

3.[important step].use any file manager to give full permission to the file(Use ES file explorer, I used solid explorer that provides more permission, if ES doesn't work use Solid explorer)..

4. Restart the phone

5. Now your WiFi will be back to rock............

If doesn't work try clearing the folder /data/misc/WiFi/wpa supplicant... And /persist....

If any thing goes wrong use back up's......

Don't forget to hit thanks if it worked......and don't blame me if it doesn't worked......

Self corrected?

After flashing the last ViperOS rom, my phone got the 02:00:00:00:00:00 physical address. The phone was still connecting to wireless lan but I wanted to correct the wrong address. Something weird happened while I was prepairing the phone to follow the recommended steps for correcting the physical address issue: for managing files, root permissions is needed... so when I flashed SuperSU and restarted the phone, the physical address was corrected...

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] tigax:
So i am on the new miui using the oficial flash thing (unlocked bootloader oficialy).

The thing is i always wanted to get root and use a kernel on xda here that gives more available memory and solves some of the heating problems when charging (but i know need TWRP ofc) .

So i went to here and checked a few guides however there are many twrp's versions some of them i can't flash miui oficial roms, some of them i need installl boot.img every single time or when i want to restore backup is not just select the backup and done, i need to do something else (is a bit confusing)... so instead i decided to ask you guys directly

The question is:

- If i wanted to use oficial miui but have root and install a kernel and in future just flash the new miui rom again without any stress (just twrp -> flash-> select rom and gapps and done), no boot.img bull****, no flash another twrp etc is it possible??

(before this phone i had moto g(1st gen) and was easy as to put ONE twrp and then would be always flash rom + gapps every single time, no boot.img no firmware, worked for CM12, 12.1 and 13)

Although I haven't tried it personally, the TWRP explanation guide here says the Cofface TWRP (linked on that page) automatically patches the boot.img when you flash a new ROM, which I believe solves your problem.

My device is a galaxy on5 I was able to download gear manager using apk' s. It will not allow me to download apps. My device is not rooted.my watch is a gear s2. I've used another phone to download apps but when I connect to my phone it makes me reset the watch
[Huawei GX8] vlatkozelka:
This is the first time I've ever done this, but I just hated the UI on the Huawei G8 (laggy) and decided to try the xda way. PS: knowing that it's easier to help someone when they tell all the details, I am going to post all of it. So sorry for the long post.

First thing I did was try to update to unofficial marshmallow downloaded from here. But it didn't work saying installation failed ... Did some research and found out the device OS is from Iran (I'm from the middle east), so probably the reason why it didn't allow me to install an EU update.

What I did then was unlock bootloader by getting the unlock code from emui website. And then unlocking it from the adb terminal (adb.exe)

Then I loaded TWRP and did a backup.

I forgot to copy SuperSu to the SD card, and when TWRP asked me to root I accepted. So it got stuck on the Huawei logo while booting.

I then did a recovery from TWRP which worked perfectly

I should've just downloaded a new rom and flashed that , but I was like maybe it might allow me to install that update now the phone is unlocked so I tried installing it from the updater ->local update. And that's when the looping into recovery happened.

So I tried to do another recovery from my backup , but again it loaded into TWRP . Which I don't understand since I guess it should load the backed up System. Or is there something telling the device to reload the update from the SD card causing it to crash again ?

UPDATE: I went into file manager and renamed the dload folder to dloadxxx but that didnt help. Then I downloaded the latest TWRP and flashed that, and recovered the backed up system and THAT worked . The restore took longer than with the older TWRP . I have no clue why it worked like this. But maybe this can help someone in the future.

Thanks
[Huawei GX8] Chilli71:
Had the same thing. Exept that this happend during OTA update ....

Get a stock ROM of your choice (tested with xxxB130xxx).

Use update extractor to extract boot.img, system.img recovery.img

Wipe all partitions (except external SD Card) with TWRP. Select remove data and confirm. (you said you have backup). This allows a clean install.

Bring phone into fastboot mode (Vol down + power)

Flash bootlader with fastboot

Make Reset

Flash recovery and system

After reboot phone should start up normal.

Let me know if you got stuck somewhere.

Chilli

Edit: Root cause for the problem seems that Hauwei needs stock recovery for some update actions. -> When ever you want to make OTA or dload update flash back to stock recovery before (better flash completely to stock ;) ).
[Huawei GX8] Demage:
h t t ps://mega.nz/#!P04D2S5Y!Yn2CL5wLC8ISb5AcNR9MTxzhAq3yVH3weG60go5zQCA download this archive, change twrp inside it with the lastest one that surdu_pertu provide.

go twrp wipe all things there

than

using adb "fastboot flash recovery stock.img"

after the first boot phone gonna think a new firmware is being installed just skip it and power off the phone

this will give you a nice start for flashing the Marshmallow from the begining.
[Huawei GX8] Chilli71:
Hello Demage,

I would be looking forward to having an Marshmallow image (if it supports my basebands). But Mega says the key is invalid. Can you double check?

Chilli
[Huawei GX8] diaracing:
Thankfully, I managed to fix it.

1- Download Marshmallow G8 stock ROM.

2- Download Huawei update extractor, then extract recovery.img using the previous tool from the stock ROM Update.app file.

3- Go to the bootloader, then flash the extracted recovery.img into recovery.

4- Reboot by the command fastboot reboot.

5- You will get the default loading screen saying the device is reset, then you will be directed to the system welcome screen.

6- You can flash TWRP again, then superSU.

I looked on the partition layout of the OP3 and noticed that

1. the free space in the system partition is only about 200 MB (with OOS 3.5.1) so at some point there may be not enough space, is it possible to change the partition layout?

2. sde23 (/bt_firmware) is 1 GB large but uses only a few KiB i.e. its a waist of 1 GB :/

3. The flash seams to be divided into 6 devices and each of those partitioned, the last block device sdf has apparently 1.5 GB of unpartitioned space :/ what a waist!

What are you thoughts on the matter?

And which one would be the right one?

Also does anyone here know what what all this different small partitions do?

for example what is boot_aging apparently its some sort of boot image but its needier a backup of boot.img nor of the recovery.

I also wonder why xbl is so important to have the backup xblbak located with an own partition table in a separated flash section?
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Striatum_bdr:
Q and A section evidently this has nothing to do with dev

And frankly don't begin to mess with partitions, nothing good can come up from this.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] DavidXanatos:
Well, isn't understanding the partitions not part of development? IMHO one could learn something useful out of that.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Striatum_bdr:
Development is programming. Building Rom and kernels.

This isn't dev add you don't propose anything related to a script, a program. You're just asking.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] DavidXanatos:
You can not program without understanding how the underlying system works. Respectively the better you understand the system the more you can get out of the hardware, for example here: http://xdaforums.com/optimus-4x-hd/development/rom-mahdi-rom-2-7-unofficial-beta-t2867590 this ROM apparently exploits a existing but unused partition of the p880 to add a new encryption feature which was not present in the stock OS.

Given how many partitions and unused space the OP3 has I'm sure someone can come up with a nice feature to exploit them. Possibly for a different approach on multi boot or may be some virtualization 1 Gig of space is more than enough for a hyper-visor.

> You're just asking.

Nope I'm finding out stuff and trying to find out more stuff....

I looked into the binaries and found something worrisome in XBL partitions contained in the 2nd and 3rd block device:

##This flag enables booting to UEFI Shell on LA devices.
##This UEFI in the current form should not be used for
##retail purpose. Fuse check will be added to avoid any
##possible security implications.

Also I'm wondering what the boot_aging partition does, apparently its some sort of boot image. But its needier a backup of the kernel (boot.img) nor of the recovery, I wonder what it is...
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Striatum_bdr:

I think debating on whether this thread should be in QA section or Dev section why not keep this decision on moderator.

why not just provide proper answer ( of course, if you know ).

I agree this question is more suited in QA section but i think this question can be asked in Dev section because it's very closely related to development.
