[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] TesterNotDev:
Hi [MENTION=2470600]supercowz[/MENTION], could you please edit the original post?

I don't think official TWRP will work. From the guide, ZCX TWRP was used and you recommended Alka TWRP, which is cofface TWRP based. The common factor between these TWRP is that they are able to bypass dm-verity (built in in settings of ZCX TWRP, cofface based TWRP's flash cracked boot.img automatically). Also, it is important to boot to recovery after flashing the modified fastboot dev else it might cause bootloop. Also official TWRP might cause bootloop.

To all:

I'm still looking for the reason why this method might work. Based on concept, bootloader starts first before recovery so the bootloader will verify if correct recovery is installed before it boots the recovery. Only explanation I can think of is that MiFlash tool and/or fastboot DEV rom is able to fool bootloader that the flashed recovery is acceptable.

To those that have tried this, can you check if your bootloader is still locked? Thanks!

OP said he was able to flash CM after having flashed custom recovery by this method. Also you might want to check the source of this guide in the OP. It's in French so google translate is your friend!

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dougmeister:
We bought a used Galaxy S5 for my son and thought we tested everything... life was good.

Then we figured out that screen rotation was not working. It is enabled in the settings. I Googled it and found out that we could do a “*#0*#” (without the quotation marks) to get into a service mode screen. It verified that neither the accelerometer nor the gyroscope were functioning.

Some posts seem to indicate that a hard reset might fix it, but the prior owner said that he reset it before sending it to us.

1) Could he have meant a different type of reset?

2) It could be a hardware problem and thus unfixable.

However, I have also read that these features "broke" with certain Android releases. I do not know what version he has on his phone (I can post it this evening if that is significant).

3) Without rooting it and installing Philz or some other software, is it possible to:

a) completely back up the phone

b) do a complete/hard/factory reset

c) restore it?

4) Would it possibly help to install a custom ROM?

I know enough to be dangerous with Android phones... I have a rooted S5 but I have to follow step-by-step directions. Your help would be deeply appreciated. Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] PriPhaze:
As most already know since kitkat (i belive) all the media that is playing or streaming shows a cover in the lockscreen

In this case im talking specifically of music album art; the problem that i have is that the lockscreen shows an extremly blurry image of the album im playing (as you can see in the screenshots);

Even tho i have embedded the image using MP3tag on the PC.

Even when the image is 1500 x 1500

Also tried replacing the files that are automatically created in the android/data/com.android.providers.media/albumthumbs (which i belive don't have anything to do with the lockscreen.. now that i think about it)

And yet im unable to make the lockscreen display the album art at full quality! That's all i want.

Anyone know if android stores an image that is use to be displayed in the lockscreen while playing something? So that way i could probably replace them one by one with the high res images.

Thank you in advance, i have been in the forums for quite some time now but today is the first time i post a new thread :)

PD: I'm using Cyanogenmod14 on my Moto E 2015 and using stellio as main music player; but also tried stock and Google play with same result.

So my device is a LG G Stylo. Has 1gb of RAM, 1.2Ghz processor. Model is LGLS770

Trying to root phone for first time and lost. I did ALOT of research and videos and i just cant find exacly how. I downloaded and app 'supersu' and 'Root withpot PC'. So far ive learned in order to do this you need to download current su zip file, which i did and transfered to SD card.

Next apparently i need to download a 'custom recovery mode', but i need to make sure that my 'bootloader' is unlocked. I powered down my device, and power/volume down, and into recovery mode. I have also unlocked 'developers options' and then turned on OEM or whatever and USB thing...but i just dont know how to unlock 'bootloader' or how to install CWM or TWRP thing. I also do NOT have a computer....

Stuck at Samsung Boot image. PLZZZ help. Will "DONATE" to whom ever that can help ;)

Hi guys,

Please help me fix my Note 5!!!

Quick background story:

Bought it on ebay "As Is". Guy said it got stuck while using Samsungs smart switch software. Phone still has intact Knox ("0") so warranty is intact.

But I dont want to take the warranty exchange route yet. It is on 6.0.1 PD2 or PH2 (i forget, I am at work at the momemnt) because thats what smart switch says

that it is going to restore.

Things I have done: (Used multiple cables, using Win10)

- Tried Emergency restore via Smart Switch. -- No success. It says something like cant restore.

- Used Odin 3.7 & 3.12.6 to flash stock PD2 or PH2 firmware. Odin flashes the rom now (it wasnt earlier) and when the phone reboots it stays at "Samsung Logo" and

doesnt move on.

- Cant get to recovery. It just does nothing when holding the buttons.

- I can only get to Download screen.

So, I dont know what to do now. I was able to get my previous note 5 working by using odin but this one is just stuck.

I would really appreciate all the help.

Thanks.

Forgot to mention that FRP is Locked :(

Any other suggestions?

[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mikeali_786:
You can try to install TWRP recovery by odin. Boot into download mode then connect your phone to the computer. Once done you will need to download some files which will install the recovery by odin. Next hold the volume up, power, and home button until twrp recovery comes up then connect the storage to your pc and install a custom rom and hopefully this might fix it. This will void warranty so do this at your own risk.

[Moto Z Questions & Answers] Shadowdancer123:
My phone has been showing extreme wifi power usage since day one.

It has the same percentage as the screen most of the time. 10-15% drain at most.

It seems to level off and not extreme-drain after a while.

No clue as to why.

And here's the kicker; it's not turned on!

I know location services can be set to enable wifi in the background, this is disabled.

And the high power usage remains even when location is forced to "device only"

The Wifi is set to sleep when screen is off, although I don't see how that would change anything as it's turned off.

It has no correlation with signal strength, as some have suggested on other phones.

Resetting WiFi settings fixed it for a day, until I logged on to a WiFi again.

There's no strange activity when I enable "overlay cpu usage"

So I'm stumped. Restarting it works sometimes, but this isn't Windows XP...

[Moto Z Questions & Answers] juliospinoza:
I read several blogs and the problem is that the OS is taking a bad reading about the wifi battery consumption, meaning that this is a "bug", not that the wifi is really draining your battery. I made a few test by myself; first, the Wifi is the second place on battery stats, just below screen time, so I decided to charge the phone to 100% and use it as normal with wifi turn-off all day long, using only 4G/LTE signal and the battery was worse than using wifi signals, and surprise, the Wifi was second place again, not even using once on a that day. The second day I charged the phone 100% again and leave it unplugged over the night (12am to 6 am) with all connections on, and the battery drain was only 2%, pretty good in my opinion, and for the first time that day the wifi was the number one on the battery stats, using like 50maH at that time, if you make the math is not even possible, if the baterry is 2500ma and was 2% stand-by meaning that the 50mah consumption were only the wifi??? what about stand by, or sleeping???.

Today, my battery is 40% left and the wifi is number 1 again and STO is second, with 2 hours and 15 minutes and the wifi 10 hours on. As I said, I read several blogs and I am pretty sure is a bug, because I dont see that the wifi is really draining my battery.
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] Shadowdancer123:
The thing is my phone is running hot in my pocket, and no other application is using power according to the list.

BUT, I actually found a solution.

It's the Smart Lock, I had it set to use my location as a "never lock" area.

This setting apparently started the wifi continuously.

I entered Smart lock settings, deleted all entries and boom; WiFi doesn't even make the battery list any more. It's sub 1%.

And my phone is no longer scalding hot in my pocket either.

[Moto Z Questions & Answers] Shadowdancer123:
That's settings I run most of the time, but for me it disappeared entirely with the smart lock location..

However, now there's a weird ghost drain, the phone will drop 20-25% in 4-5 hours with an absolute minimum of active use.

The phone is room temperature, so nothing appears to use any exorbitant amount of CPU like before.

And there's no obvious power hog in statistics either. :S

There's got to be some kind of bug with the CPU power down mode or something.. Not sure how I'm going to track it down.

[Moto Z Questions & Answers] Shadowdancer123:
So I finally received my USB type C cable so I could connect to my computer and install wakelock lite.

Found several guilty apps, two games which I'd installed but forgot about, that ran a lot in the background.

But biggest hog was an app called e-control for my broadcom wireless gadget, it had woken the CPU 4000 times in 3 ½ hours.

There's obviously a bug with battery stats, as none of these were visible there.

Or it only counts apps in foreground which is kind of pointless, as I already know my games eat battery...

Now when I leave the phone unplugged at night, after a full charge, expected battery life is 3-4 days in the morning.

Which is still terrible, but realistic.

[Moto Z Accessories] Shadowdancer123:
I really like the back cover idea, even though I'm not sure I will be buying a battery back, at least not yet as they're waaay too expensive.

However, one enormous oversight from Lenovo/Moto is that the stock back cover doesn't have a QI receiver built in.

It's thick enough that a slim QI coil would fit comfortably, and not add any bulk from the "style mod"

It appears that the phone itself has the electronics required built in, so the thickness should not be affected.

(Based on the fact that there's a system service preinstalled about wireless charging)

I haven't been able to find anything on ebay or google, has anyone heard or seen something interesting?

I'm assuming you are NOT looking for the Incipio battery with Qi Charger built in? I got one of those at best buy and love it, but there's no denying that it adds a bit of heft to the phone. Personally, I don't mind this at all and prefer a slightly thicker phone.
