[Desire 820 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arixeon:
please share the link or method to unlock bootloader while phone is dead. in current situation im unable to write or update the firmware .
[Desire 820 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gSingh05:
http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader

You have to register.

For Windows: Install HTC drivers, HTC Sync Manager(optional), fastboot, adb.

For linux: Install android-tools

Put phone into Hboot -> Fastboot.

Connect to PC and from cmd/terminal you have to execute commands as told by HTC site.

> fastboot oem get_identifier_token

This will give you a string , copy paste from '<<Identifier Token start>>' to '<<Token End>>' , only this column, no prefix.

Paste this into website. There will be text box while following steps.

You will get a file in email attachment. It will be something like this 'Unlock_code.bin'

And also the link to further steps will be provided.

> fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin

You will get option on phone screen. 'Yes' 'No'. Use volume button and select Yes.

and its done.

It hardly takes a minute
[Desire 820 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arixeon:
thanks

now i unlocked the bootloader abd installed recovery but unable to enter in the recovery.. it shows that entering recovery and then restart loop .
[Desire 820 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gSingh05:
Yes it happens sometimes.

Make sure the recovery step was complete. For win: The .exe cmd should exit on clicking enter or automatic, till then don't remove the phone.

Try some combinations:

- turn phone OFF from Hboot then start recovery

- if screen shows 'entering recovery' let it be , wait for reboot or shutdown

- try alternative options of 'reset' and 'recovery' both will get you to twrp

- remove sdcard then try

- check charging

- don't try if overheating, let the phone be in normal temperature.

I had similar problem, but trying combos started twrp.

The mistake I did was to wipe everything. Don't do that, try to wipe cache, the first default option provided by twrp and start phone. (no sdcard/sim)

I was able to install Tomal's Discovery ROM but after some time phone again rebooted and stuck in loop.

For any restore/flash use internal memory. SDcard failed to work for me ( i tried many different sdcards).

Yes...as the title implies, the UAG case and the Samsung screen protector coupled together was not a good fit.

I've settled on the UAG case. Now I need to find a screen protector.

Anyone have a UAG + screen protector success story?

The Samsung Screen Protector worked well with the standard Samsung Galaxy Note7 Case S-View Standing Flip Cover - Black. But the case didn't really feel like it was protecting anything. Plus it was a pain to hold. Blah... :)
[Note 7 Accessories] rcobourn:
Been going without a screen protector. Screen still looks pristine.

dont really like the extra hole on top. returning it.

love the case thought. would get it again if i know which version has just 1.
[Note 7 Accessories] borijess:
I hang the ice. I also have the ash. The ice has one hole and the ash has two. I think they might of updated there cases.

[Samsung Gear Fit] sigilizer:
Received my Gear Fit 2 earlier today and am attempting to set it up. Downloaded Gear Manager and the app can see the watch just fine, but it hangs on "Connecting to Gear," eventually telling me that setup is taking too long and to try again. Has anybody run into a similar issue? Any solutions?

2 different things happen. The GF2 presents me with the "Download Gear Manager software" message, which I did, then attempted to connect via that software. The GF2 shows "Setting Up" but hangs, and gives the message "Setup is taking a long time. Try again?" Hitting try again renders the same result. Sometimes that Setting Up screen just never appears, and the "Download Gear Manager" message sticks around. Gear Manager just shows "Connecting to Gear." I left it trying to connect for 2 hours. No dice.

I can set the watch up fine without connecting to my phone, but that's rather useless to me.
[Samsung Gear Fit] DucatiMon:
I have the HTC 10 as well and I ran into the same issue. Download and install the Samsung Accessory Service app from the Play Store. Once that is installed, retry the process, and you should be able to connect now. Let me know if this works for you.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Tianfat:
ive rooted my phone, but iam wondering has anyone got away with the warranty on their rooted phone ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] CenteaOSD:
My bet is they won't accept it, but of course, answer will vary by where you are at(because of consumer law and user agreement and stuff).

My personal experience, they've never accepted it, but at same time where I was didn't have any law that ensures me to get warranty regardless of customize condition. And provider's insurance service clearly stated that they do prohibit me from messing around with software, and once it's detected, they do reserve a rights to cancel my insurance, so they didn't even allow me to send it back to SAMSUNG(They saw my KNOX is flagged)

Unless you've got that kind of strict policy in where you are, it is worth trying as you've got nothing to lose(of course flashback to the stock firmware and un-root it). As reason of getting warranty service is not stated clearly(either that is a HW or SW), I cannot give more information.

What's the average battery life you guys are getting after the August security update?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active Questions & Answers] frope01:
I'm new to the active since I just got it as a temporary swap for my Note 7. I don't have a long research record. I can say though that this thing has the most impressive battery of any phone I have owned by far! I took it off charge at 6 am. I used out all day as usual. I then went out of town and didn't get home until 3 am the next morning. I STILL had some juice! No other phone has made it through an entire day of my usage. Including the Note 7, LGG4, G3, Nexus 5, Optimus G Pro, or anything else. I'm impressed.

Note7
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active Questions & Answers] gqukyo:
I can attest to the great battery life too. Best Android stock battery life. I can get better with other phones but even then it requires custom roms and kernels. Since we don't have root yet for the S7A, I'm forced to use it as is and it's been impressing me. The only thing I dislike is the video recording stutter I have from time to time...

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paddymcg1:
Sounds like you haven't done a factory reset or wiped cache within recovery. Also, how long does the device stay on the Samsung logo for? You might need to wait a while for the device to boot after the ROM is flashed. Try the reset/wipe cache in recovery first then reflash the rom

[Samsung Gear S2] tstreete:
It hasn't worked for me and a bunch of other folks, either. If you're getting the "Access Denied" error when you try to initiate Samsung Pay from your watch (long press the back button, go through the screens), then you might want to provide your details in the thread listed above. It seems that most of the folks with that particular error on the S2 bought their watches very soon after it came out (Fall 2015 in the U.S.), so maybe it's something to do with certain serial numbers freaking out SPay's security. Just a hunch so far, but if your details match mine and the other folks, then we might be on to something.
[Samsung Gear S2] loafed_Doge:
Thanks for the help. But mine gives me an error about my watch not connected to my phone. Could you check the imgur link on the original post.

On the phone side, after going through the setup screen, I've been getting "Gear not responding. Try again." Not identical to yours, but pretty similar. That's why wondered if you had gotten the Access Denied error on the watch.

Ohhhh I see what you mean now. Nope, I have not gotten any Access Denied error.
[Nook Touch General] SimonSimpson:
Hi All,

I'm a software developer, reasonably comfortable with compiling apps in Linux, though still got more to learn on inner workings of the full system.

I've been thinking about following the Linux from Scratch book for a while - and also about converting my Nook e-reader into a useful device for developing on when out im the sun.

I guess there are some significant challenges here - device trees and commercial secrets, perhaps some crypto keys used for signing update images to boot (I'm familiar with these problems, but not solutions or good workarounds).

What I'd really like is a good understanding of:

- what tool chain I need to setup

- What has been tried already and what the problems were

- any further help/datasheets that can get me going

I'd have posted this in the 'android development' area as the closest forum for what l'm trying to do, but apparently I'm not allowed until I've got my post count up - so I'm being forced to post in 'general'. If someone agrees and can move it, that would be great.

P.s. I have searched the xda site, but I'm not finding what I'm looking for. I'm sure it must be here somewhere, so any pointers/links on where it is would be appreciated.
[Nook Touch General] jaykoerner:
I have tried to get info on such things three times over 2 years for different devices, no one every seems to point me in the right direction, the most i have been able to find out is how to make compile cm and a little bit of how to customize roms, not to be a downer but i think the process is often so different for ever device and difficulties usually happen that the only people that build roms are people that have either have experience I n some form from their job, just edit existing source for cm(updating to a new version, customizing roms ect...) or have screwed with the stuff for years till the point that they just figured out alot of problems themselves. Wish a could find a good guide myself to atleast get the basic dependencies required for a device to boot together, if i could get something to boot the rest of the issues could be worked out with trial and error, boot noone on xda, Android authority, Reddit or cm's own forums goes into enough depth to make that possible.
[Nook Touch General] SimonSimpson:
Hi jaykoerner,

Thanks for your reply - good to know I'm not alone with my echo!

I've discovered some useful links if anyone wants to begin getting to grips with all this...

1. XDA Devs has a wiki (not sure how to find from the forum links...?)

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/BN_Nook_Simple_Touch

2. There's a (atleast one) customized kernel (and probably a dev-tool chain) available on GitHub:

https://github.com/javifo/NST/tree/master/kernel -- including kernel compilation instructions

https://github.com/javifo/NST -- root of the repository.

3. Parallel to Raspberry Pi kernel compilation (so you may want to learn from that as it probably has more articles)

https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/linux/kernel/building.md

I'll post more when I next do something with the information (Still want to understand more on the android HAL)

Hope that helps someone!

SS.
[Nook Touch General] SJT75:
My initial thought was that toolchain should match the underlay Linux kernel of Eclair (2.6.x.y) for us to be sure it could be run on NST. This info that I still have to search through is certainly helpful. Thanks!
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
Neither the NST or the newer glows use device trees.

In the Glows this is all handled by the custom ntxconfig which allows simple configuration.

For building Android apps, you use the straight Android SDK, possibly also the Android NDK (for native code).

You'd also use the NDK for building command line utilities.

I've never built a kernel from scratch, but I have binary modified/patched them.

There is the simpler bit of patching system image ramdisks which can be conviently handled by my imgutil.exe in the signature.

If you want to do audio, you really are better off with the Glow4 (7.8") which actually supports it.

Not if it becomes an official recall you can't just ignore it. Legally speaking anyways you are not supposed to and all responsibility would fall on you if you ignored it.

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] TabletFiend:
So I have downgraded to 13.3.2.8. I want to get NexusV4 or CM11+ on this thing. It sounds like I cant get a true recovery with TWRP since there is no way to unlock the bootloader with my 13.3.2.8. So, what is the easiest way to get safestrap on my HDX7? Do I need upgrade to some other stock version of Fire OS to make this happen easier? This obviously has to be an OS version that we have root for. I found some older threads but I'm not sure if those are the best ways since they at 2+ years old. Any help here would be appreciated.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
Hopefully you know about network isolation (WiFi off/Airplane mode engaged) following a rollback. If the device accepts/processes an OTA update while on 13.3.2.8 it will permanently brick.

Best option is to place a copy of 13.4.5.5.1 (that exact version) from here on the device in sdcard/ folder or "internal storage" via adb tether. Then perform a manual search for updates which should find and process the file. Once on 4.5.5.1 you can root with Kingroot, block OTA and proceed with Safestrap v4 installation using the standard process. Be sure to follow Safestrap v4 best practices which differ from other Safestrap variants (most importantly no secondary slots and keeping a copy of a flashable rom zip on the device at all times). If you opt for Nexus be sure to use the most current build, not the one in the DISCONTINUED thread. Post back with any questions.
