[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] joshuadjohnson22:
I need to do this too, mine drains like crazy now and it used to not. I'm on vacation in the bahamas. I have to sim in, just on wifi and I drain like 20% in an hour. I have turned things off like Bluetooth, location and so on and it hasn't helped. I uninstalled apps like Facebook in hopes to stop it but the issue remains. Just installed that battery monitoring app... Hope it will point to the culprit
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] mrainman:
Hi guys. I am in desperate need of your help.

I have a Sony Xperia V LT25i which used to have a CyanogenMod Rom 12.1 up and running and TWRP 2.8.

I decided to update TWRP from the Bootloader, hoping I could update it to later on to CyanogenMod 13.0, and stupidly picked it to update on boot instead of recovery and now my phone is bricked. it does nothing but load the "Sony" logo, then dim.

I tried fastboot from the computer, it does not detect my phone. I tried Sony Mobile Flasher, it does not detect my phone, i.e. I managed to flash most of the files from a factory rom except system.sin.

I can't get into recovery(Volume up + power button). I am able to get into fastboot and bootloader mode over the phone (blue and green lights), however, my computer does not detect it at all (I tried all the drivers I found on the internet, but not success).

Any suggestions? Please?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] St.Jimmy90:
Which operating system are you running on your PC? Did you currently update it to windows 10, or a newer windows 10 version? If so you'll have to disable driver signature and install the drivers again.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] mrainman:
I am running windows 10 with its latest updates, and had had it for a while. I did disable driver signature and reinstalled the drivers but that did not fix it.

I am currently able to identify my device in fastboot as

PSDN: CB5A1WUDZ0&ZLP fastboot

I tried to flash a recovery.img to it, but it says it fails with

any other advice, please?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] St.Jimmy90:
What happens if you extract to boot.img from your current 12.1 and try to flash it as boot.img?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] mrainman:
you are reading my thoughts. I just did that, and I have a bit of progress (I guess). I am in cyanogenmod recovery mode. however, I do not know how to proceed from here. I have the cyanogenmod 13.0 archive on my sdcard, however when I try to install it it says

I tried flashing it again, it kicks the same error.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] St.Jimmy90:
Ok, your phone is recovered. I guess you're trying a CM13 nightly. It should work at the 2nd or 3rd time, though I'm not quite sure. Otherwise you could try to boot up to your Cm12.1 and install TWRP via a terminal emulator and the dd command. To me TWRP is way better than the CM recovery
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] mrainman:
It does not boot to my CM12.1. It simply freezes to "Sony" logo. however, if I hold volume up + power button it goes into recovery mode. should I keep on trying on installing 13.0? I tried about 4-5 times, still kicks the same error.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] St.Jimmy90:
You could also try Cm14, it runs pretty good on my Xperia T. Unifying will wipe your internal storage though, so be aware. If you still got data on it you should try to flash CM12.1 again and safe your data
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] mrainman:
I was able to boot a TWRP from an unofficial CyanogenMod 12.1. I think I got it from here. I do not own an Xpire T, so my latest version of Cyanogen would be 13 ? (I Guess)

Thank you so much for your help!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] St.Jimmy90:
Awesome!

Here you go for CM14:

So i have bought this Samsung galaxy grand prime phone from Saudi Arabia. I live in India. Now when i enter a sim card in it , it is asking for a code. Now surely it is sim locked. So what are the ways to unlock it. There are many websites which provide the code but you have to pay them. Is there any other way out of this issue rather then paying and entering the code ?

I'm still waiting for my replacement to arrive (no T Mobile stores within driving distance, so they are shipping it to me) and so I'm still using my extremely statistically likely to be unaffected original Note 7. I haven't installed the update in fear that they might have snuck that 60% battery limitation in there.

Anyone try it yet?

I exchanged my defective Note 7 for a new one at a DIFFERENT store from where I originally purchased the defective one with no questions asked. I would be furious if I were you, and totally agree with your actions.
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] chillsen:
depends if you originally bought it at a corporate verizon store vs authorized/premium retailer store. I ran into this issue and learned they are on completely different systems and its just best to stick with Verizon Corporate stores if possible. So i returned my S7 at the premium retailer and went to the corporate store for the Note 7.

Also to the OP, verizon can set up a return box that you can ship and then they can ship you the Note 7. The only issue is you will be phoneless unless you have a backup phone you can use while waiting. That is also one option i learned they can do for you.
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] Dodge DeBoulet:
Unfortunately, UPS and FedEx are refusing to handle the recalled phones, so the only option is to return them to corporate stores. Samsung reps are actually picking them up at the stores to return them to a location where they can be processed.
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] dottat:
UPS has posted this statement.. (effectively ground shipping only and likely will need specific shipping materials to go)

https://www.ups.com/content/us/en/about/news/service_updates/20160915_samsung.html
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] Dodge DeBoulet:
Thanks for posting that. It will certainly be useful for those who purchased their phones directly from Samsung. I don't believe Verizon customers will benefit from UPS's flexibility, though.

My comments were based on multiple news reports of FedEx and UPS outright refusing to handle the return shipping of recalled phone. Guess that wasn't quite the truth ...
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] mickeyleah:
Completely true, reps in the store simply cant do an exchange in the system. Its as if you bought something from walmart and tried to return it at target. Imo authorized retailers are the worst! They can set their own prices and promotions and when I worked in the store I could literally tell that one close to me was selling returned phones because the esn had been active on many accounts. Essentially the district manager would be agreeing to giving you a new phone cause in no way shape or form could it be an exchange in the system.
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] dottat:
I think the truth is just more likely an evolving story here. Hopefully this all gets sorted soon for everyone's benefit.
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] Matttrix:
I got a update...

The district manager came to personally meet with me and we had a hour meeting and we joined by the general manager of the corporate store. The store manager apologized for his and his employees mistake, the district manager explained there was poor communication on their part, this should have been handled much better. However due to supply issue they are unable to give me new phones till October 5th. They have paid my current bill and 25% of each phones costs when I get them. As I agreed to remain a customer and sign a new phone agreement. I also got everything in writing again. If anything under the current deal is unable to be met i can withdraw without penalty etc and their payment on my bill will not be charged back to me.

After what I went through im going cover extra extra everything. I don't trust anything. Ill keep you all informed about it.

I got called this morning and got told the Blue Coral are behind on stock and I could get another color tomorrow. I am disappointed but at this point another few days I'll live.

What this whole subject has been about to me is the communication issues, promises, documented orders by region people, stores not following orders, the list goes on and on. I did put myself in hell but at the same time. I made them deal with their failures and address their issues. Sitting there hearing them admit they ****ed up and offering to pay my bill and discount my new phones was a "start".. But I still think about the countless others who go through such bull**** while these companies walk on us. Hopefully my situation will get others to step up to make companies do what they say and offer.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigalbklyn:
Hi all,

I've searched the threads and tried the fixes that I found but nothing solved my problem:

I have a Boost xt1031 which was on kitkat 4.4.4. I flashed a 5.1 lollipop rom and everything worked fine. Then I tried a 6.0 rom everything works except my wifi. It will only connect using the wps button on my router. Normal connection with password, (yes it's correct), gives authentication problem. So I tried another mm rom and the same wifi problem still exists. So then I went back to the 5.1 rom where wifi worked before but now it gives the same problem I got with mm rom. Finally I flashed my recovery back to 4.4.4 and wifi is working normally.

I would really like to use marshmallow, does anyone here now why I have this problem with my wifi not authenticating with password but will connect with wps button when I try a mm rom?

Hey guys! I wonder if you have heard about this newly-released laptop from Chinese phone manufacturer Xiaomi called Xiaomi Mi Notebook Air? It looks similar to the Apple Macbook Air. I know it may sound like a cheap imitation but Xiaomi is a big company and is considered as the Apple of China.

Anyway, the specs are pretty much impressive like the Intel Core i5 CPU, 8GB DDR4 RAM, NVIDIA GeForce GT 940MX video card and a 13.3-inch FHD display (1920x1080). The full specs can be found here: http://www.chinatabletreview.com/xiaomi-mi-notebook-air

So what do you think about this laptop, other than being an imitation of the Macbook Air?

PocketCM version .15 is great, has a lot of functionality and many skins to choose from. You can get it here: http://www.pocketcm.com

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] j1ngles:

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Plumbumber:
Hi ,

I have tried allot of roms and i have tried franco kernel. im trying the latest 'stable' version of nougat from today (AOSP)

My question is, and i know it has be asked before and it usually is preferences. What rom that is VERY STABLE, gives the best battery life without it crashing any apps?

The stock is OK but i don't get good battery life or stability of it atm (4.4.2). have tried 6.0 but it didn't run like i wanted it to run, felt a little slow, and i will probably feel the same about nougat definatly because its a little bit beta ish atm.

The roms that i like the best are the once that are almost completely empty with PICO Gapps + Google maps. no bloatware, no extra features, no special customization just stable, smooth, good battery life aosp lovelyness.

Will i get any benefits in trying a CAF rom? and how do i go to CAF? is it just installing a CAF kernel, rom and TWRP version?

are their any CAF roms that are truly empty (aosp like) ?

and is CAF still a thing because i notice CM left it behind a while ago.

Will playing around with stuff like smart launcher, which are a little bit more basic give me what i want? and Ram managing and phone cleaning software like Cleaner master? because it feels like it helps a little but i have read that it might not be very healthy for ur performance yet the 2GB seems a little bit of a bottleneck atm and it seems to give me a slight boost that i require from time to time when clearing the ram.

also will xposed give me addons etc that might help or is it the same thing as the cleaner master story?

Franco kernel did give me a better battery life. but still not 100% what i wanted (yet i am beginning to think that i might have hit the maximum battery life ,that my battery might be slightly worn out and might need a replacement)

Sorry if this question annoys people because i know there is allot of info to be found and people ask this allot but i can't really seem to find a 100% answers as i want em to be.

Thanks in advance

Tell me what options do i have to get the Lightweight, long battery life, fast simple phone that i desire (Mobile Data needs to be on 24/7)

Pure Nexus with Franco Kernel is a really great setup, especially if you use FKUpdater. Use the Battery Saver profile and the battery life is perfect, with decent enough performance. I've tried multiple CM13 CAF builds, but I don't think I could live without Franco Kernel.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Michael_MI:
what about security patches?

I agree, this setup is really great.... except. How do you apply the monthly security patches? Automatic OTA doesn't like SU or custom kernel or custom recovery. I can't seem to find the OTA images to sideload. So a full adb load of _everything_ followed by reinstallation and rerooting? I've looked all over the forum and couldn't find a good way to get those pesky security updates.

Hi, I'm using stock AOSP with ElementalX kernel and I find this team really good. Battery life is decent with a normal usage without games (I usually arrive at the end of the day) also with T2W features active, my nexus have more than 2 years so battery is not so young. The only problem is that the official ElementalX app is not free but doesn't cost so much. I've never tried franco but I've heard great things about it.

About the monthly update I followed this procedure and everything went fine: http://elementalx.org/how-to-install-android-monthly-security-updates/ I'm not 100% sure that it works with every kernel because you will reflash the stock kernel and ramdisk.
