Hope you read this on time.

droidboot.img in not the recovery image, is the bootloader image (so don't flash as recovery.img) and even more, you won't find the .196 recovery image inside the stock Rom.

https://mega.nz/#!gcBSSapa!cIyweU7vMV6940B2MD17hvklYT4IidMaMOa7L46LcsQ

This is a zip package that you can install using TWRP to flash the .196 stock recovery, or you can unzip the file and you will have the recovery.img file inside, so you can use it as a backup, to flash in fastboot mode or using TWRP for install as image file instead of zip package.

Regards.

There you have all the recovery files

https://yadi.sk/d/t-za9JiGmZPuw/Recovery Z00A

You can have the recovery files, that yes, are included in the RAW firmwares (just unzip the RAW file).

In other way and if you know how (I don't know, I tried but no succes http://23pin.logdown.com/posts/222680-build-zenfone-recovery-image-from-bootimg), is built the recovery.img using/paching the boot.img image and the files included in /recovery folder inside the stock ROM package.

Hello All

I'm in terrible need of Recovery.img and System.img of Z00A-WW-2.20.40.196

Please help. The above links aren't working

Cant find anywhere on the internet.

Thanks
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Val3r10:
You can find the recovery bitstream image (named recovery_sign.bin) inside the corresponding RAW file (which basically is a ZIP file).

The .196 one is here: https://yadi.sk/d/FijRoAVJtvRiG/WW_ZE551ML_2.20.40.196_20160815.raw

I'm looking for the .198 recovery.img, but haven't any success with the raw file for that version.

Could I flash a previous version of the recovery above an existing system, without reflashing it ?

Successfully unlocked bootloader, I lost my recovery by flashing a wrong TWRP and now I haven't the recovery at all.

Could you please suggest a way to reset it to stock ?

Thanks a lot
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] javvadi:
Thank you for the url.

I previously flashed the lower version of recovery and was unsuccessful. I think it doesn't work that way.

It's better to reflash completely from raw brings back to stock.

Then as you know you can unlock the bootloader, flash twrp recovery, and any custom rom like Borets ROM.

So for the last week my note 2 would just do random reboots like once or twice a day, then started to do few times a day and now it goes to Samsung note 2 screen and sits there. I popped out the battery and went into recovery mode cleared the cache tho sure did nothing.

The phone has never been modified or rooted in anyway. I've owned since new. Is there a fix for this? Sorry I'm a newb. If the phone is toast I do have insurance on it so not worried about that. Just wanna know if I can either fix or if not can I get the data off it somehow?

AT&T S7 Moisture Problem

i'm having the same problem with my S7. the "moisture detected" problem only occurs when i'm using my car charger. i have 2 Motorola car chargers and they both have started giving me this error message. Any ideas on how to fix?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WestCoastSunset:
phone: Galaxy S7 - non rooted

provider T-Mobile

Just weighing in here as I also get the moisture error. I normally use blackberry cables to charge android phones as I find them to be of higher quality than the crap cable that normally comes with the phone, plugged into the samsung charger of course. Ever since tmobile pushed out android 8 to my phone I started getting this. Now let me state this very clearly:

THERE IS NO MOISTURE, ON OR IN MY PHONE.

This only started a week after the update. The only thing I have found to work is to use the samsung provided cable and charger. If I use a Samsung charger with a blackberry cable, the warning is triggered. I have tried clearing data and cache from the system app Usbsettings and then restarting. This did nothing. I also used a can of air. This did nothing. The only thing that works is using Samsung's cable and charger.

Update: Tried it again just now with non samsung cable and charger and I don't get the moisture error. Still no moisture on or in my phone. Weird.

Hallo.

I had unlock bootloader, install twrp and supersu: my honor 8 is rooted, but why i don't have encryption on it? When i enter in twrp, i can see all file of device.. i don't understand why.

Thank you all
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] XePeleato:
Because either TWRP decrypts it, or because it isn't really encrypted.

I'd say it's still encrypted.

[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] gee2012:
If you flash a stock rom on a Nexus it doesn`t lock the bootloader, so my guess with Honor is that it doesn`t lock the bootloader either unless you lock it yourself in fastboot.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] PalakMi:
Probably won't lock it
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] xor2000:
TWRP can not decrypt your internal storage unless you give it the correct password. That means, if you can browse your /data directory in TWRP without having to enter your PIN/password, then your device is definitely not encrypted. The whole point of encryption is that you can not just boot into TWRP and look at your data!

I have the same issue on my Honor 8 and have tried a lot to get the device to encrypt the internal storage. No luck so far, unfortunately.

I don't know if the Honor 8's internal storage was decrypted before unlocking, and I don't see how one could test this (without unlocking ;)
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] XePeleato:
That's the #1 mistake that people usually make. The device is encrypted, and the password is secret to you, I recommend you not to post such statements without researching a bit into Android's encryption.

Even after unlocking the bootloader, the device remains encrypted because there's a flag at the Fstab that tells vold that the data partition is encrypted, so that has nothing to do with unlocking the bootloader.

For obvious reasons, encryption is handled in such a way that the end user would never realize that it's encrypted.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] djhuzi:
I don't understand very well english, so Sorry if i reply mistake. After one full update, the smartphone wipe all and lock the bootloader. This because It enable the encryption, and is full stock with recovery stock too. When we go to made root, we need to unlock bootloader: It wipe all and don't enable encryption. For this motivazion, we can install twrp and see all file of primary Memory.

We need to by-pass the wipe when lock-unlock bootloader

[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] xor2000:
I am not sure I understand what you are trying to say, but if the /data partition is encrypted, the user must enter the password, otherwise it can not be decrypted. The password is either entered during a normal boot (and is usually the same as your lock code, so you will not get prompted twice), or, if you boot into TWRP recovery, you must enter the password in TWRP. I have seen this myself on a Nexus 7.

What I found out meanwhile is that SuperSU is in fact patching the /fstab so that encryption is no longer enforced after a wipe of the /data partiton. I am still struggling to re-enable it.

---------- Post added at 01:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:09 AM ----------

In fact, I found that SuperSU is patching the /fstab to remove forced encryption.

What I am currently trying is: to change the "encryptable" flag in /fstab back to "forceencrypt", then wipe /data in the hope that Android will again encrypt the /data partition. It does not work on my Honor 8 though.

[Moto Z Questions & Answers] hockeymonday10:
Hey all,

I noticed that the moto z was a Verizon exclusive unless you bought the gsm unlocked version from Motorola. As for the Verizon version, if it's unlocked but still a Verizon phone would it work with TPO (the people's operator)? I believe TPO is an umbrella of T-Mobile. I read from multiple places that it depends on the phone to see whether or not a Verizon unlocked will work on another carrier. Some eBay listings I've seen have said Verizon models will work with others while others said it wouldn't. I haven't been to find any moto z specific info regarding this on the internet. If someone could give me some insight that would be much appreciated.

Thanks
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] mobile-junky:
The problem which you face there is with the LTE bands. Now a days GSM and 3G bands are standard and most phones support all the 3G and 2G bands for universal use. But the same is not the case for LTE bands. The Verizon unit may not have the LTE bands needed for T-Mobile and other US GSM carriers so you will be better off buying the unlocked version.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dabba87:
I have a sprint galaxy S6 that I rooted years ago with the pingpong root. So its on the stock rom and never updated passed 5.0.2 I believe. I haven't done much with the root except enjoy the use of the hotspot that sprint tries so hard to deny users. However lately I've been having problems. The build in hotspot no longer works, and I suspect its some stealth update from sprint. It'll turn in without issues, but then I'll watch my mobile data disappear. The 4G blinks off, then it tries 3g, then nothing, then 4g, 3g, nothing, etc... Turn the hotspot off and everything returns to normal.

Fine. I'll download "Wifi Tether Router" and use that. However, every 5-15 mins my laptop loses connection and the hotspot won't show up in the list of networks despite it still running. What I suspect happening is my wifi is quickly turning on and off, disrupting the hotspot. Now, after getting the phone and going through all the settings, I turned off connection optimizer and unchecked the allow scanning. However every once in awhile while using the phone, if I happened to have the drop down menu down.. I'd notice the wifi quickly cycle on then off. It never affected anything I did so I left it be. Now when using the tether app, I rechecked all my settings, even turning off "keep wifi on while asleep" and checked the dev settings to make sure the wifi scanning/roaming was off. I am completely lost. Are there any settings I'm missing? Is there anything I can do with root to stop wifi from turning itself on without user interaction?

Or, is there any way to fix my built in hotspot? I have a new laptop and now have more use for this function.

Thanks guys.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] molitar:
I am so ****ing sick of this bull**** knox! I am ****ing stuck with 4.4.2 since I can not root without tripping ****ing knox! All I want root for is to use Titanium Backup, SU, and Busybox!

I'm fed up with Samsung and do not understand why people continue to buy there crap when they are definitely hateful against rooting!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] ShinySide:
LOL considering you're on 4.4.2 your warranty has been up for close to 2 years LOL which no one could care less about because tmo replaces trip Knox left and right as long as the system is stock.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] molitar:
Some people do not have the money to buy new phones. I had 2 year payment plan and got about 3 more months left to pay. I have a warranty on it that I do not want to void by tripping Knox.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] invisiblewave:
I don't think Knox is an unreasonable way for Samsung to proceed. For an enterprise-class phone, the alternative is to completely lock down the device. To me, Knox seems like the perfect solution, especially since, as Shiny says, T-Mobile are honouring warranties regardless of Knox status so long as you return the phone to stock (which again, isn't an unreasonable request, imo). How often is a warranty required on a modern phone anyway? I'm on my seventh Android device, and I've yet to send any of them back.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] SimLynks:
I actually agree that the GalaxyS5 will be the last phone I will ever purchase from Samsung, and it's mostly because of Knox...However my main issue with Knox isn't that you cant root anymore without tripping the counters, but that Samsung decided to remove one of the most useful features that Android has ever added to the OS, MULTIUSER MODE.

Samsung had Multiuser Mode on the 4.4.4 builds but "hid" it and could only be enabled again with an Xposed Module. Once the Lollipop Roms were released they completely stripped it out, only to add it back in the form of "My Knox" which you cant even install when it detects that you've tripped the flash counters. But since this phone is now over 2 years old i've just switched over to an AOSP ROM that has Multiuser mode again.

So yeah, the GS5 is the last Samsung smartphone I will ever willingly purchase, but thats only because Samsung does dumb things like not making phones anymore with a removable battery + SD card slot + My Knox bull****. Tripping the flash counters doesn't matter anymore.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] invisiblewave:
I spoke with the T-Mobile helpdesk a few days ago about a connectivity issue with one of our GS5s. It's a CPO device with a 90 day warranty. The problem was the connection with the tower which he reset, but before we'd diagnosed it, I asked him what my warranty situation was since there were 60 days left, but I'd rooted the phone. He confirmed exactly what Shinyside said, that they'd honour the warranty despite that, so long as I returned the phone to stock before sending it back, which includes reinstalling the original recovery image. To T-Mobile, at least, Knox doesn't matter.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] penguinjoe:
Samsung S5 will also be the last Samsung phone I buy (unless it is another S5) for 2 main reasons -- Galaxy S6 has a sealed battery and no microSD slot. Galaxy S7 gave back the microSD slot, but still leaves the battery non-swappable. Those are the 2 features that had me as a hardcore Samsung Galaxy fan. as soon as those went away so did my fandom. There are other vendors out there that have high end models of phones (*ehrm* LG) containing those features I prefer.

My suggestion for you is this: Wait your 3 months (2 now) and do your update to MM. But really, knox trip count is pretty pointless as far as T-Mobile is concerned. They don't care as long as you are running a stock unrooted/unmodified OS on your phone which are readily available off of sammobile - or here.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] invisiblewave:
Until I got the S5, I would have agreed with you about the battery. However, running Marshmallow on the S5, the battery life is so good that I can't see that I'll have any need for a second battery anymore, and the original battery on my S4 is still fine after 2 or 3 years, so I don't have any worries about its longevity either. I was looking wistfully at the S7 the guy next to me at the buying the other day in the store..... Once they're on CPO for $200, I might well be tempted!
