[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] engwee:
Hello. I had gotten this Note 4 phone which had a custom recovery installed on it but the rom seemed to be official, on 5.1

The first thing I did was go to samfirmware and flash a 6.0.1 rom, it went fine, phone was working properly. Then I got greedy and wanted to test a Note 7 ported rom. Flashed TWRP recovery and from within I flashed RamROM http://xdaforums.com/note-4/snapdragon-dev/rom-sm-n910g-ramrom-t3400349 , I downloaded the one from post#2 , the N910F one that my phone is and after it flashed to ROM it simply stopped working. My phone no longer booted, was booting me directly into Download mode with emmc read error. I kept trying to flash the stock rom which I previously flashed and it would fail.

Afterwords I used Smart Switch to reinitialize the phone, writing my phones S/N and that failed as well but at least that made my phone boot into a different recovery where it said to connect to Kies. Once again I used Smart Switch and this time it was successful 100%. My phone even booted into the OS and was working, however, while using it, after 10 minutes the phone restarted into Download mode with emmc read error.

So all in all the phone is functional but it starts to lag and restart. Now I'm kinda stuck again since I've tried to flash the firmware I got from Samfirmware through Odin, it succeded but it just doesn't boot, it goes to Recovery, tries to apply an update and I get an error.

Is there anything I can do? I can't believe the emmc could've broken just from trying to flash that custom rom, especially that afterwards I was even able to boot into the phone.

Thanks for reading and I appreciate the help.

read this - http://xdaforums.com/note-4/help/note-4-issues-t3453048

there are links to more threads related to your issue.

Short version though:

it is dying. install wake lock application, add it to start up and set settings to #4.

accept the fact that your phone will eat the battery faster and one day WILL die completely
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] engwee:
Thanks for your response. Regarding the Wake lock application, I'm starting to look into it, I asume I'll have to be rooted. I'll try to recover it again using Smart Switch and then I can only hope I can install TWRP and still have it functional.

Previously when I was able to get it working with Smart Switch, entering the recovery messed everything up. It said it was applying an update and that got stuck.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] golden_m:
no need to be rooted, just download, install and set it to autostart
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] engwee:
I'll try it if I somehow manage to get the phone working again, Smart Switch just fails now midway through.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] engwee:
Is this the app you're talking about? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.thedarken.wl&hl=en

What exactly does it do?

I managed to restore it eventually with Smart Switch, it took quite a few tries, then I switched to my Macbook when I saw the app was available on it too and the 3rd try succeded. I only did it because I saw the 2nd try had the % much higher than the first.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] golden_m:
yes, that is the app.

i've read it does not allow your phone to go to sleep mode.

drains the battery faster, but this is the only way to keep note 4 working without swapping its motherboard...
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josip-k:
I have a question, my gf recently bought a note 4 and we may swap our phones and if we do, i'll flash CM and tinker with it because i find this phone very interesting, just a question, does this bug affect the N910C (exynos) model? Do i have something to worry about? Because the phone is warrianty protected and if it's the case, i don't want to break it. I hope someone will shed some light on this :)

[LG K10 Questions & Answers] ermond012:
I think it's normal. Mine is also a k430dsY variant and I experience that too. Same goes with other K10 users that I know.

Moto g4 XT1625 install TWRP 3.0.2 fail, Image not signed or corrupt.

unlock boot loader ok,

Install TWRP 3.0.2 from official (twrp-3.0.2-0-athene.img	12.2M	2016-06-08 17:50:53 EDT) fail with these message:

(bootloader) Image not signed or corrupt

I tried again, not work. After that, reboot, try to enter recovery mode, only get "no command" message with a dead Android robot on the screen.

I wanna root this device, but can't install TWRP at all.

Please give some help.
[Moto G4 Questions & Answers] CFCAAA:
1) Did you type in the right command?

fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

2) Did you download twrp from the official page? Did you try re-downloading the twrp file to make sure its not corrupted? Below is the link for twrp 3.0.2, directly from the official page of twrp.

https://dl.twrp.me/athene/

Please update me how it goes.
[Moto G4 Questions & Answers] xtermmin:
I had the same issue. Always got that message, but I reflashed it a few times until it eventually worked.
[Moto G4 Questions & Answers] CFCAAA:
Glad to hear it worked :)
[Moto G4 Questions & Answers] funplay:
First of all, thanks for all the reply.

I will leave more detail and keep trying.

turn on usb debugging. --> ok

adb reboot bootloader --> ok

fastboot devices --> ok show devices

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img --> enter everything right but only got fail & pain T_T

// The message:

(bootloader) has-slot:recovery: not found

target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes

sending 'recovery' (12496 KB)...

OKAY

writing 'recovery'...

(bootloader) Image not signed or corrupt

OKAY

// end

Here, it said sending 'recovery' (12496 KB)...

which means, I guess it get that img file, but still fail.

By the way, some other user got the same problem and message.

I tried on XT1625 Moto g4, again and again, fail. close unnecessary program.

If I can unlock bootloader, hardly believe things could go south like this.

Maybe the key problem is

1 (bootloader) has-slot:recovery: not found

something must wrong, but where?

2 (bootloader) Image not signed or corrupt

XT1625 Moto g4, Moto g4 plus need different TWRP? But there's only one from TWRP official website.

I tried everything I can do, download again compare with md5 before I post.

I can't find way out.

Anyway, thanks alot.
[Moto G4 Questions & Answers] funplay:
updated, I'm not sure, but as you said, I tried again, suddenly, I could enter TWRP, I will try whether it work or not.

Another question is, after unlock bootloader, install TWRP, root. Can I update system or patch with OTA?

Thank you for reply and help.

:)
[Moto G4 Questions & Answers] xtermmin:
Custom recovery and root break OTA. You might still get the notification that an OTA is available, but it won't be able to apply.
[Moto G4 Questions & Answers] llaalways:
it never worked for me.

But the next command works:

fastboot boot twrp.img
[Moto G4 Questions & Answers] thetouchablegod:
I was having the same problem. I tried the RootJunkyremove amazon bloat script, and I was having all sorts of problems, Even getting into a boot loop for a while.

I was running without a recovery until I ran Rootjunky's root script, which seems to have fixed most things.

My Note edge is N915w8 Canadian model and has LTE frequency bands which differs from other Note edge.

For it to work in India different LTE Bands are required.

If i extract a modem file from other region Note Edge(same snapdragon variant) and flash it to mine, will it work ?
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shagerty:
Don't see why it wouldn't if properly modified and if you enabled everything in those samsung menus accessible from the dialer. If it doesn't work you can always put the device in download mode and use samsungs odin to reflash the stock firmware files via a computer. Can't guarantee anything and don't blame me if you brick but that what I'd do if I wanted to accomplish that task. Ive always been able to restore via odin if everything goes to ****.

Hi all,

I have a H811 T-Mobile G4 and I've just installed CM13 ROM on it. All things seems good but I really need the stock music player for some functions that not included in Music app of CM rom.

Exactly I need 2 functions: 1st one is to play tracks in the same folder and 2nd one is to change the speed when playing a track. (for learning english).

I tried so many apps but I felt they were not same as stock LG app.

Can anyone help me?

Thank you!

I have a samsung note edge. It was sent me from japan ( au locked). Firstly it had lolipop and i some how managed to unlock it temporarily through Code( #7465625*638*#). Since I uprgaded it to Marshmallow that code seemed to not work now and it is why i am here to ask help me unlock my note edge. I am here in Nepal and professional help is very difficult to get or very expensive. Also online unlocking website payment is also not possible here from nepal in current circumstance.

Now when i Put above code it asks for network unlock code. Now where can i get that network unlock code. please help me Guys.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shagerty:
If you just type in cell Unlocker or smartphone unlock code or carrier unlock cell phone on to Google you should get some good results I have personally used one called "I.done apps" I only used this one because this site offered a specific method for a specific device I had at the time. it worked fine but you might find better prices elsewhere you should be able to get an unlock code for the Note Edge on any one of the major websites that offer cell phone unlock codes they generally also explain to you how to input the code. I can't endorse any one site and I don't work for any of them either but I can definitely tell you that the cell phone unlocking sites that are legitimate sites definitely do work. there's always the chance online of paying for a service that isn't exactly what it seems but if you just read into it a little bit and pick a popular site that has https and secure checkout you shouldn't have any issues.

[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minnix:
Hi, I bought a Nexus 5X for a friend a few weeks ago and got it updated to Nougat. I used my own Google account to setup the phone and install some apps. Then, I removed the device from my Google account, factory reset it, and gave it to friend. When he switched it on, it asked to enter the original owner’s Google username and password, so I gave mine. But after logging in without any error message, the phone displays the same screen over and over. Asking to enter the original owner’s Google username and password. We tried to wipe user data in recovery mode also. But the same issue occurs. Anyone knows how to fix this? Please help.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sfhub:
Did you change the password on your google account.

If so, there will be 72hr lockout on that account for activations.

If you try to early, it resets the 72hr counter.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PiousInquisitor:
[MENTION=6235343]minnix[/MENTION] wait the 72 hrs as advised or check online for a current bypass method or flash the TOT with the LG Up tool as if your phone were bricked.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sfhub:
One other thing, the best thing to do to avoid factory reset protection is remove account from device as opposed to what you wrote (remove device from account)
[Wing, P4350 General] spiko:
Hello, I'm running a T-Mobile Wing with the Touch-IT v2.3 ROM on it. Everything works amazing and props to ITJE. Is there any way to remove VSD and use MS Voice Command over a bluetooth headset? I had a PPC 6700 with MS Voice Command and it worked great, with the headset too.
[Wing, P4350 General] genaldar:
You can install voice command and just use it instead, but you can't remove VSD since it's in the rom.
[Wing, P4350 General] spiko:
I have it installed, but it's not working when I use the bluetooth.
[Wing, P4350 General] falcon72:
Hey did you find the fix for this I like microsoft voice command as well.
[General Questions and Answers] therobbot:
​Hi,

I bought a Huawei Y6 for my dad. Since his eyes are not so good I set the font size in the display settings to Large. With my Moto G this scales the font almost everywhere. However in Emui 3.1 only some of the fonts are scaled up. For example the small fonts in the settings still stay the same (small) size. Also, the notification font is really small. Is there any workaround for this without rooting the device?

Thanks

Tobias
[General Questions and Answers] DarkBlood.:
Look for additional font size settings if there aren't any more then root is the only possibility

LEAGOO Venture 1 - Information & Reviews - 5.0" HD | MT6753 | 3GB | 32GB | Leather

LEAGOO Venture 1 (V1)

Specs:

Leaked News:

LEAGOO V1 Comes with Good Specs and Different Design

Maybe the LEAGOO T1 gained most of the media attention lately, but the company has already a new device ready for release, the LEAGOO V1, a device that differentiates from most current smartphones in terms of design.

LEAGOO markets the device as both a luxurious as well as a secure device. The security comes from two directions. The first is the fingerprint sensor that comes on almost low-to-mid devices and ensures that the device gets unlocked only by the fingers of the user. The second is its OS, called Sec OS (from Security) and is based on Android. No further details are known about it.

But what about luxury? To achieve a certain level of luxury, the company has decided to use real calfskin to dress the exterior of the device. Unlike other devices that had pseudo-leather back covers, the LEAGOO V1 is a combination of metal and leather.

On the hardware side, its main specs are:

- Octa-Core SoC

- Support 4G

- RAM + ROM: 3G+16G / 3G+32G, 128GB microSD support

- Fingerprint sensor

- LGQC 5V/1.5A (LEAGOO Quick Charge)

- 5’’ HD Display

- 8.0MP + 13.0MP front/back camera

- 3000mAh battery

- Sec OS 1.0 (based on Android 5.1)

More information can be found on www.leagoo.com​

Maybe the Leagoo T1 gained the most attention of the media lately, but the company has already a new device ready for release, the Leagoo V1 (or Venture 1), a device that differentiates from most current smartphones in terms of design.

From now to 18th October there will be a presale of the LEAGOO Venture 1 on AliExpress, with a nice discount.

Leagoo markets the device as both a luxurious as well as a secure device. To achieve a certain level of luxury, the company has decided to use handcrafted first-class calfskin to dress the exterior of the device.

And the security comes from two directions. The first is the fingerprint sensor that comes on almost low-to-mid devices and ensures that the device gets unlocked only by the fingers of the user. The second is its OS, called Sec OS (from Security) and is based on Android 5.1 (or maybe 6.0?, i'll ask a confirm for this)

UPDATE: Confirmed, Android 5.1 is here.​
[Device Reviews and Information] Alberto96:
LEAGOO Venture 1 is here to against Vertu Aster T

Vertu is the company that does not need a further introduction when it comes to luxury devices. But recently LEAGOO Venture 1 also catches lots of attentionsdue to its similar luxury leather materials and design. Leagoo Venture 1 is here to challenge Vertu Aster T.

Why they are similar?

Both of them are used handcrafted first-class calfskin to dress the exterior of the device. Both of them can support the latest and faster 4G network. Both of them can be customized by customers’ need and can been crafted as an exquisite expression of refinded aesthetic. But depending on the different material, Vertu Aster T price will*also be different.

As for the specifications, Vertu Aster T is featured with 4.7 inches screen with a*resolution of 1080 × 1920 , 2.3GHz quad-core processor, 2GB of RAM, 64GB of storage, 13MP*rear camera with LED flash, 2.1MP front camera and it will be running Android 5.1.

Leagoo Venture 1 features a 5.0-inch 720p display and is powered by a MediaTek MT6753 octa-core chipset clocked at 1.3GHz. It also packs 3GB of RAM, 16GB of storage and 128GB maximum memory expansion. It adopts rear 13MP Sony camera with true-tone flash and an F/2.0 aperture. 8MP front camera with 84° wide angle adds more interest. The fingerprint sensor has become almost essential on today’s smartphones. Leagoo Venture 1 adopts it but Vertu Aster T does not. LQC v1.5 fast charging technology is used to charge the large 3000mAh battery on Venture 1, for a faster, safer and cooler charging. But Vertu Aster T is just only 2275mAh. Both of them are based on Android 5.1.

Besides, Venture 1 adopts Dual Secure OS to protect its security. It is possible to switch from the personal OS to business OS freely. Using hardware encryption, two separated OS should be able to work perfectly with no chance of info-leaking. All files are sealed in a private storage space and to ensure the safety of all files, the Venture 1 monitors every access, showing all history record of unlocking th Deata protection. In addition, by setting password, all Apps in the device can be locked and no one can get in without a password. (unless you manage to hack it).​

Review (part 2)

Benchmarks

I have used 3DMark, AndroBench, Antutu Benchmark, Epic Citadel, GeekBench 4, GFXBench, PCMark (Work 2.0, Computer Vision, Storage & Work 1.0) and Vellamo to stress the device to the limit. I won’t test Games or Video Playback because there are already some related tests included in these Benchmark suites.

3DMark – GPU Performance is mediocre, something expected when this MT6753 is stressed to the max.

AndroBench – eMMC Performance is superb, comparable with high-end devices.

Antutu Benchmark – I won’t say a lot about this benchmark, this isn’t as reliable as others. I’m providing this just for benchmarks lovers.

Epic Citadel – 3D performance is acceptable considering the GPU.

GeekBench – CPU Performance is nearly as good as other CPUs with the same configuration (8x Cortex-A53), multi-core score is impressive though.

CPU

Compute

GFXBench – Well OpenGL 3.0 benchmarks are pretty intensive, and this is where an outdated GPU lacks power.

PCMark – Common MT6753 Performance here, not the worst neither the greatest.

Work 2.0

Computer Vision

Storage

Work 1.0

Vellamo – Just like previous tests, there are no gains compared to other MT6753 devices.

Conclusions

Summarizing all results, it is clear that this device isn't perfect, there are some minor issues here and there that can be fixed via an OTA Update. I consider this as a cheap reply to Vertu's Expensive devices.

This device has some great potential that can be easily unlocked. I know, it is still powered by the old Android 5.1, together with the old MT6753 chipset, but if you are not looking for the latest technology in your hands, and if LEAGOO fixes some issues (including the removal of Malware!), it might be one of the best choices for those who are in search for elegant and business-like devices, at a reasonable cost.

In the current state, i can't recommend it, unless you really like it.

Pros:

Impressive Build Quality

Fast eMMC Internal Storage

Dual Microphone

RGB Notification LED

Compass/Magnetometer is here

Cons:

Still running on Android 5.1

MT6753...just outdated nowadays

No Gyroscope

Bugged Rear-Camera Auto-Focus

Muffled Speaker Sound

[Device Reviews and Information] mkstevo:
I just wanted to add an update to my comments on the Leagoo Venture 1.

I bought mine in February, at the start of June, I started getting pop up adverts appearing in my notification area. All the ads I saw were for Uber, every one. I tried to get rid of them but couldn't, they'd almost instantly reappear again. If I opened the 'recent apps' area, it would close again by itself, and if I tried to rearrange apps in the app drawer, any apps I was dragging and dropping would be dropped in odd places as the screen redrew itself every few seconds.

It took me some time to find out what was going on so I thought I'd mention it here so that should anyone else suffer the same fate they wouldn't struggle as I did.

I looked in: System > Device > Apps > All

I found I had two copies of 'Shell', one was ~750kb in size, one was ~30Mb in size. Selecting the ~30Mb one, I force closed it and then uninstalled it. This stopped the popup adverts. I then installed "No Root Firewall" and set it to run at boot. Watching the apps that then attempted to access the network, I only enabled access for essential services, I prevented the app called "Software Update" which claims to be written by com.rock.gota from accessing the network/internet at all and if I see it running, I close it. I can't disable or delete it as I haven't rooted my Leagoo.

Since doing this I've had no further problems. It could have been another app causing the popups, if they return, I'll update this post.
[Device Reviews and Information] Alberto96:
For those interested in getting a cleaner ROM that SHOULD not have the adverts issue, try this one: https://mega.nz/#!0U1wQJQD!qaUwFmjffsmDVJSMp95Y37wQnH0lGNCautRg4vOiyhY (Flash via SP Flash Tool)

It is made for the ikimobile kf5 bless (Venture 1 rebrand), but i adapted it to work on the Venture 1 just by replacing the scatter and preloader. 100% working fine here, tested.

Enjoy.
