[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viper@xda:
I installed google contact sync apk but still I do not have contact sync.

I reset to the factory settings and the same problem. Contacts are sync during configuration and no more. I see the date of last contact sync and even I try to sync now the contacts do not sync. Anyone knows why?

My phone PLK-AL10, EMUI 4.0.1, ROM 6.8.16

p.s. I can not (like others) update via OTA to 6.9.1 !
[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zinko_pt:
1- Were your contacts syncing before installing google contacts?

2- Have you checked app permissions to see if it can modify, delete and create contacts?

3- have you used any other app (i.e. form PC like Thunderbird, EmClient and other PIMs) to see if you can have bidirectional change in contacts?
[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vsriram92:
Have you checked your "Contacts to display" option?

Accidentally you might have selected SIM contacts only to view.

May be you would have synced your Contacts. But it might be restricted in the view.
[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viper@xda:
Hi,

I still have a problem with noc contact sync.

1- Were your contacts syncing before installing google contacts?

Before 2 months there was no problem with sync. Yes before also contact sync.

2- Have you checked app permissions to see if it can modify, delete and create contacts?

Yes, I check permissions. Yes I delete google account and create new one.

3- have you used any other app (i.e. form PC like Thunderbird, EmClient and other PIMs) to see if you can have bidirectional change in contacts?

I do not use any another client from PC. On PC I just use gmail in browser.

Have you checked your "Contacts to display" option?

Yes I checked it also.

Accidentally you might have selected SIM contacts only to view.

No.

May be you would have synced your Contacts. But it might be restricted in the view.

No.
[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zinko_pt:
OK, this is what I would do:

1 - backup with Huawei native app

2 - factory reset

3 - boot phone and don't setup anything, just skip all you can

4 - let the OS settle background processes for 15m

5 - reboot and add Google account

6 - check sync options

7 - test creating a contact to see if it is updated at Gmail web view

Another thing you might check is if you are using a ROM version with that known problem and if there is any update.
[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vsriram92:
This is little silly question, anyways will confirm.

Are you adding your contacts to your google account ? or selecting SIM (or) Mobile to save the contacts ?

Did anyone try to root Honor 8 ?

Did anyone unlock the bootloader?
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] DThought:
Yes, my Honor 8 is rooted & has xposed installed.

I used the method to obtain the OEM Unlock code for fastboot from huawei using a facebook login which has been stated here a few times.

Afterwards i flashed a TWRP image and installed systemless SuperSU & xposed v86
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] svetius:
Really? You used Honor's unlock tool for the 5X and it worked for the 8? I didn't know that was working.

https://www.emui.com/en/plugin.php?id=unlock&mod=detail is the page i used, logged in with a (freshly created, i don't use facebook) facebook account, and entered informations about the phone.

A few seconds later I had the unlock code.

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] ayoosh.rox:
is it the same procedure of unlocking OEM as of yuphoria?

like how the command prompt is used and the codes are entered?
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] DThought:
Yes, that's more or less generic for phones that use the fastboot concept
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] ayoosh.rox:
So honor 8 has the same fastboot mode, right? Thats a relief, because i have a yuphoria right now and jumping on to an honor 8 willbe easy for me then
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] majidessa:
Hello everyone,

Note 7 is one of the priciest mobile devices ever sold by Samsung where, there were already many dissatisfied customers because of its price point, however, in light of the recent events that surrounded the release and the recall of Note 7 series do you think that Samsung will cut the price when they re-release the Note 7 "expected in October" ?

One point to consider is that IPhone 7 will be announced tomorrow and will be released at the same time as Note 7 if not sooner! and as we all know, one of the reasons that made Samsung advance the release date of the note series is to avoid direct competition with Apple.

What do you think? should we return our phones and get a refund and wait until Samsung re-release the note 7 so we can assess what would be their marketing strategy? or should we wait for Note 7 replacements?
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] bonerp:
I'm not returning it for refund. I just want a replacement. Price isn't important to me but I realise it is for some...but shouldn't those guys be looking at value brands Oneplus etc anyway without shouting Samsung is too expensives? For who? YOU?

I don't think Sammy could possibly afford to reduce the new price due to the recall but they may add extras as standard...for instance its cheaper to include a cost VR or SD card than knock £100 off!

There will also be an awful lot of remanufactured phones available shortly....no doubt going cheap!
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] lisbon2004:
Yes, absolutely.

Note 7 has a lot of issues: the unwanted curved screen, programmed obsolesce in form of the non-removable battery, fragile glass back, mediocre 4GB RAM, etc etc.

it is no longer a device that sets standards.

The fair price for Note 7 is about 500 EUR maximum.

850 EUR is just gross overpricing, it's to throw money away.

don't forget there are excellent devices like:

OnePlus 3 for 400 EUR (although the screen has low FHD resolution, and no QC3);

ZTE Axon 7 for 450 EUR (and it has amazing DACs, and dolby stereo speakers).

let's see how it goes.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] bonerp:
you/those who bought it knew all of this but still bought it....
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] BarryH_GEG:
I'm sure they'll do another round of promotions because it makes sense - it'll almost be like relaunching the phone. As for a price drop, why? It's a premium phone already selling below the iPhone 7. It's no less premium because of the battery recall.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] oskarsson:
I like the curved screen and prefer it.

We have battery banks, no need for removable battery. I prefer IP67 over removable battery.

Glass back for wireless charging, check.

4GB is mediocre? There's still PC's that run with 4 or even 2GB ram.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] mankvl:
The go and buy those OP3 or A7... I care about water resistance and wirelesses charging, s pen, I even like the new TouchWiz, I love the camera of N7 and for shure I will love the phone... U are not geting any of these features in those phones so I pay more... even the build of N7 is more epic, I like the edge saying that is unwanted is ur choise... this note7 is a full package and you don't need 6 gb RAM... OP3 is a proof of that
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Ryland Johnson:
You dont even own the Note 7. Why are you here? If you like the other brands you mention buy those why keep knocking the Note 7 as you do whenever you have the chance?

No one is going to force you to purchase the Note 7 and to keep unwisely comparing an apple with an orange just highlights your total lack of knowledge in relation to the Note 7's specifications.

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] majidessa:
I like the Note 7 no doubt it, but the question is should we get a refund on our phones and repurchase it when it is commercially available ?
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] bonerp:
NO! I want a straight exchange.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] piepie22:
Well the price in HK has been slash a fair bit. Initial Release price was $6198HKD (800USD), this morning it was 5570HKD (718USD).

The price is bearable after if I trade in Note 5, it should cover 50% of the cost.

I agree it should be around 675USD would be a reasonable price range (600EURO). I don't think they would slash price by that much until at least 6 month later.

But...

Consider that a iPhone 7 Plus is about 770/870/970USD.

I think getting the Note 7 is still hell of a deal.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] bonerp:
none of us know what R&D Samsung have put into the device and price generally reflects a large % that.

Those saying it should cost $300 less....why? There are plenty of cheaper alternatives - buy those if they are in your price bracket.

Its a bit like buying their top of the range curve screens costing upwards of £2000. Yes there are plenty of large UHD screens on the market, but its down to personal choice and what options you need If you can afford it and will pay it, there is no competition. I looked at the price of the IP7+ and at £900 for what THAT is, that is properly overpriced! Still no notification LED!
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Boy Bisaya:
They may bundle freebies and tweak the price a bit. If there will be significant change in price, it will upset the pre-order owners which will later have impact in their future product launch.

If you are concerned about the price variation, Samsung is offering a refund. You can take that and stay on the safe side. Each has its own preference. Unless the purchase is just for the heck of having one, then price will eventually be a big deal. As for me, if another brand can offer a model with S-pen as good as the Note series, then I may reconsider. For now, I stay with Note 7 because it makes a part of my everyday work a bit easier - signing e-docs on the fly.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] hoursenghong:
In my country, Cambodia, Note 7 is only $770 (Dual sim FD). But there is no VR bonus, GearS, or SD card. $850 is a good point if you get the bonus.

Meanwhile, iPhone 7 32GB price is going to be $900-$1100, which originally is only $650 in the US. No bonus except the cheap-azz screen protector.

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] DieterHolvoet:
I have an issue where I can't read the logcat: neither via 'adb logcat', 'adb shell logcat' or any logcat app. I always get the following error: 'logcat read failure'.

On a fresh install, logcat works fine, but after I root the OnePlus 3, it stops working.

I tried rooting with 'BETA-SuperSU-v2.74-2-20160519174328-forced-systemless.zip' and with 'SuperSU-v2.78-201609011115.zip', root works, but the problem occurs with both.

I'm using the latest version of ADB, supplied with Android Studio.

Does anyone have an idea what's going on?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] fadedout:
Can you open up a terminal emulator on the device and run logcat directly? I have no idea, but if I had to guess, it sounds like it could be a SELinux issue. Maybe set it to permissive temporarily and try? Have you installed any other zips apart from SuperSU-v2.78-201609011115.zip? Perhaps an audio mod like Viper4Android? Were any init scripts installed? Check if there's anything in /su/su.d...

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cblendz:
Hello, I've recently installed Temasek's CM 13 nightly marshmallow build to my bootloader unlock note 3. I'm having a difficult time acquiring root after the install. I've flashed SuperSu to no avail. I've even tried the Aramaic tool method with no luck. Is there anything I can do to get root back on this phone or am I screwed?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
Look for SuperSU in the settings menu.

Not sure if you need to turn on developer options for it to appear there or not.

[Edit]Did you install CM with a custom recovery, or with flashfire?

Your post doesn't say one way or another, but if you have an unlocked bootloader you can flash a custom recovery using Odin... meaning that you always have root, so long as you preserve the unlocked bootloader.

Having only a single root (locked bootloader and no custom recovery) and using FlashFire to install a ROM puts you at constant risk of root loss.

.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cblendz:
Thanks for your reply. I have TWRP 3.0.2 installed. I didn't check to see if it was installed under settings but I have since restored back to my stock rooted ROM. I will reinstall CM again and let you know if SuperSu shows up in settings.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
Hey.

Just to make sure I'm being clear - you do have to flash SuperSU along with the ROM flash - root is not "baked in" to CM.

For some reason CM "hides" the SuperSU app so that it only shows up in the Settings menu and not in the app drawer.

It wasn't clear from the way you described things if that's what was going on, but I remember having the same (?) experience ... I thought the install of SuperSU was somehow missing due to the fact it didn't show up in the app drawer.

.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cblendz:
I've just tried reinstalling the cm13 ROM again and this time I checked to see if SuperSu was installed in settings. It didn't show up there either. I don't know what's going on with it. I wipe everything then flashed the ROM then wiped dalvik and cache. Then flashed open Gapps. Wiped dalvik and cache and flashed 2.78 SuperSu and reboot to system.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
I don't know if this would make a difference, but somewhere in that thread trader418 mentioned that you had to flash the ROM after the Gapps to take care of an issue with some init.d scripts. As in the sequence: wipe - ROM - gapps - ROM - supersu - first_boot.

I'm not sure if that's related or not. It's been long enough ago that I can't remember the exact details, but I remember thinking "hey, where did it go, I know I flashed it!".

Maybe it would be best to ask this question in that thread.

.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cblendz:
Thanks a lot that was it. Finally got root. I wish CM would bake root in their Roms but all is good now. Thanks.

You may need to perform a software repair using PC Companion.The process will erase all internal memory.You might need to charge your device for about 1-2 hours before so the device has at least 60% battery.

Make sure the device is not connected to computer or laptop and turned off (sometimes you have to press power button and volume up until the device vibrates 3 times or on some devices you have to press the small button near the SIM tray or on the back of the device).

Open PC companion->support zone->phone/tablet software update->repair my phone/tablet blue highlighted.Follow the steps given,do not connect your phone until prompted to press volume down while plugging USB cable. If PC companion does not start the repair process, you might need to run it in compatibility mode with Windows 7 (in some cases XP).

If the above does not help,you should take the device back.
