My tablet got bricked and the hassle to get it working again (for me as a newbie that didn't know much about fastboot back then) was a big pain, today, I am not going to let that happen again! I created this "tool" to allow me to easily unbrick my tab, well, I decided to share it with you guys! Please report any kind of bugs!

Link removed, thread moved to my Universal unbricker instead.

Please report any bugs or if it worked in the thread, thanks!

I have a number of friends that use "Plasti Dip" for things it should not be used for. I am wondering if it could be used to make a case for the Note 7....... You can chose from a number of colors, finishes, clear coats, etc,etc,etc....

Then there is also cerakote which is used to re-coat fire arms, I am sure cerakote would take the abuse of a phone dropping.... or maybe those sprayable truck bed liners like Line X or Rhino Lining...... I have seen them coat cinder blocks with that stuff and drop them from 4 stories up and the cinder block does not break or crack........ It's just a thought....... :D
[Note 7 Accessories] xile6:
Yea you can.

Dyc (dip your car) diy carbon fiber.

He spray a ipad with a carbon fiber look.

So it would he no problem to mask off your ports, buttons , camera and heart montior. Then spray it.

The down side is platsi dip needs time to filly cure
[Note 7 Accessories] mahdibassam:
One question... WHY ???
[Note 7 Accessories] dermotti:
Seems like something i would do after i messed up my phone
[Note 7 Accessories] pete4k:
Because you can?
[Note 7 Accessories] chillsen:
plastidip is fun, as long as you block off all and every opening it should be super easy and fun to try. very easy to take off as well, it's like a liquid rubber.

Mine always says "driver installation failed"
[Sony Xperia M2] ARandomIndian:
Did you follow the instructions correctly? I think you did not follow the SELinux changer part.
[Sony Xperia M2] momoring:
I followed it all. Btw, i got unlocked bootloader and I used eagleroottool to root my device

Edit: It says "Driver installation failed, the busybox found on your device doesn't work. this usually means you installed the wrong or broken busybox, V4A needs stericson busybox to work. If you are sure about having installed the proper busybox, then please confirm your device has been properly rooted."
[Sony Xperia M2] ARandomIndian:
Install Busybox from Playstore and open the app and press "Install"

BusyBox is needed for V4A
[Sony Xperia M2] momoring:
Already did but still not working. I'll try it again later

Edit: Got it to work. I used solid file explorer rather than es file explorer. Thank you :)
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] solitudinal:
Hello all,

I currently have a Moto Z XT1650-05 SHERIDAN Dual Sim from China. I tried to install TWRP and root it but messed it all up. Now I am stuck in a bootloop. I tried to flash the stock rom in mfastboot using the XT1650-05 GRIFFIN China Stock ROM but it gets to the "Erasing" screen with a droid and keeps looping from there.

Have tried to google all over for a "SHERIDAN" ROM but not able to find one either. Could any kind soul here point me in the right direction to save my device?

Thanks so much in advance!

You can download stock firmware from there:

I have recieved my 1 din Android head unit. There are some things dat annoy me, and they seem to be solved by flashing a custom rom. The problem is, which one and how? I have been able to gain root access with KingRoot, but as soon as I reboot to recovery, I see the droid with the red exclamation mark. Here some details about the unit:

Model number:	rkpx3

Android Version:	4.4.4

Baseband Version:	Unknown

I was able to backup the existing ROM witth Nandroid backup online. The only problem was, it dit not found a recovery partition.....

What can I do to flash a rom (and recovery) onto this device?
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kt2016:
Hi and thanks for reading my post!

All of a sudden (perhaps after trying out MyPhone Explorer) when I connected 5X to my Win10 x64 (usb debug ON, transfer files mode), Win saw three of my custom created folders (no unusual characters used for folder names) on Internal Shared Storage as files (see the attached screenshot)! Win could not copy them from phone to PC though. The three folders and their files were easily accessible within the phone and when copied to an OTG USB flash drive, they transfered to Win10 totally fine. When I renamed the three folders on the phone by adding a number at the end, Win displayed them properly as folders (previously it displayed the previous name as a file too though). Then I tried to rename the folders via Win to their proper names and they worked fine ever since. But I would still like to know what happened?

Any ideas, pls?

Best,

K
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kt2016:
update

It appears I posted something nobody can solve :)

Just in case an update: the issue is not just the three folders, many more were affected within the folder tree.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carm01:
I have the same issue as well, so, ts not just you. I never got to look at the folders in Windows 7, have you got a chance to check in Win7 ?
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kt2016:
Hi,

thanks for your reply.

Unfortunately none of the computers I come in touch with have Windows 7 anymore, though I loved that OS.

I assume the issue at hand has something to do with the way Android handles file system and perhaps with incompatibilities between Windows and Android (e.g. "Abc " name (with the trailing space) is perfectly legal in Android as are coexisting files named e.g. "ABC" and "abc"), but that's just a speculation.

:)

[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HebeGuess:
Standard MTP bug, just clear you 'Media Storage' app data and reboot. Wait for a while to let 'Media Scanner' service sometime to finish its job.

Then you're fine.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kt2016:
Thanks for advice, HebeGuess! Will try this! I still have some folders that suffer from this issue. They will be useful for testing now.

Would you perhaps know what causes this bug, so we can prevent it in the future, pls? If it has a specific name, I will gladly google it. Too wide results googling just for "android mtp bug".

Best :)

[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nidstang:
Could you expand on what you mean by "Media Storage app" -- that doesn't show up on my list of apps and searching the phone doesn't reveal anything either. Where do I find that?
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kt2016:
I think what HebeGuess means is here (nougat):

system settings /apps/options button (upper right, three vertical dots)/show system

this reveals on the list "media storage"

hope it helps. will try it myself during the weekend

[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] ekerbuddyeker:
I noticed that if you are connected to wifi, instead if disconnecting wifi when you turn the hotspot on, you can now hotspot your wifi back out. Perfect if you have to pay to connect to wifi. Means you can share that wifi connection.

I also noticed that if you connect to wifi and activate the hotspot, wifi calling and SMS operate as if you are connected to a cell Network. I had expected wifi calling to work when wifi calling is active, but for some reason, you can also send SMSs ONLY when the hotspot is on.

I cant figure out why either if these two fantastic things work only when the hotspot is on. What is the connection?

It means that if you are somewhere where there is only wifi (and obviously no cell service), you can hotspot to all your devices from your phone, take calls and send SMS. That's something new since the update.

Hi,

Oh yeah, this time next year, you'll be seeing

32 GB

microSDHC

cards. The best is yet to come!

Thanks to BEPE, we are now able to use microSDHC cards on our Artemis and now, there's nothing stopping us from watching full-motion pictures, lasting three to four hours on our device. Oh yessssssssss!!!!

One more thing - our HTC Artemis has a built-in GPS receiver and you can do lots and lots of things with it, including:

1. Tracking your position live on Google Earth, so that friends and family all over the world could see where you are

2. Tracking your valuable assets against theft, eg. car, mobile phone

3. Flying - you can load VFR charts in it and fly your aircraft (I mean real aeroplanes), assuming that you are a pilot.

4. Navigation maps - such as TomTom can be installed for road navigation. Just imagine being able to know well advance, as to where the speed cameras are located.

5. You have access to a host of software - lots and lots of them about, for the Windows Mobile platform, unlike the iPod.

6. ....and the list goes on and on...., including the availability of support from this great Forum, ROMS, tweaks, warez, etc.

The iPod is over-hyped. It has no advantage whatsoever, over our Artemis, except maybe, the speed of the processor.

[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mike7143:
Hey XDA friends, wife's XT1030 (mini) just started randomly going nuts, probably an issue with the digitizer. Ordere a new-old-stock XT1030 (mini) online and it just arrived.

Her previous was updated to the max to SU6-7.7 which I gather can't be rooted. I myself have a Moto X developer edition so I do what I want on it but I'm not versed in the XT1030 (mini).

New one is on SU6-7.2 and 24.13.2.obakem_verizon.Verizon.en.us

Do I have to downgrade to SU6-7 to be able to root or can I root on what I'm at now? If downgrade, anyone have a link/video?

Also, as far as unlocking the bootloader, I assume I either have to use Sunshine (pay software, right?) or is there another method out there?

Thanks,

Any review... What's your take on the device.... Tq...
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini Questions & Answers] Metatron22:
Well probably not a complete review. First of all it's a great phone.

- Display Full HD with great colors, who needs more?

- Overall performance, not playing game so not much to say here. Definitly a better feel then the OnePlus Two I was useing before. Can't really pinpoint why...

- Camera is good for everyday use. Nothing to exciting here.

- QuickCharge 2 is great, though I miss Qi charging (why is that not a thing anymore? Even Ikea sells qi chargers now...)

- Sound is probably the best I ever heard on a mobile

Just two annoyances:

1. You have press the freaking bell on the lockscreen.

2. A builtin task killer!? Why? Killed my alarm clock twice before I found out what was going on.
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini Questions & Answers] wiemar:
what about audio chip? the same as greater?
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini Questions & Answers] Metatron22:

Hi,

I am using the Axon 7 mini now for a few days.

First of all, I'm very happy with this phone. But I have some problems.

When I tap on top of the screen the phone moves my apps and the are sorted another way I want them.

Next thing, all of the movies I receive in Whatsapp stop after a few seconds. But the sound goes on. So you have to wait and at some point (video ends) the sound is killed, then the video starts running again but without sound. Is anyone else here with a similar problem? I just hoped to receive a custom rom or something else for the phone because I think there is much potential in this thing.
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini Questions & Answers] gorizza:
I was looking at this phone to recommend to a friend, but I'm distressed that there isn't much of a community here. Should I be worried about recommending this phone? It really looks like a good deal for someone with a budget of $300.
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini Questions & Answers] marus2:
Look at axon mini thread here on XDA. Locked bootloader, root after a few months and only by some Chinese stuff, not working on updates by manufacturer, lack of custom roms... That's the major thing you should consider before buy. I think that's not worth $300 +/-.

Maybe if phone would not have SW issues, but I don't believe ZTE could do it.

Nevertheless, axon mini had major price drop after several months on market - from more than $300 to $180.
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini Questions & Answers] LadyHazy:
Hey all. I've had an Axon 7 Mini for a few weeks now and have been writing pros, cons, etc. about it on the ZTE USA community forums -- I can't post a link because I'm new here :(

I'm in the UK, and shipped mine in from Germany. I have the same model as the OP, but the grey version, with V1.0.0B02 software. It hasn't had any software updates since I've had it, but I'm hoping the Mini will also get an update to make the notification bell optional (and the LED customisable if possible).

I consistently get around 5.5hrs screen on time, but this drops if the location settings are on. It has great coverage on the UK giffgaff network, and I didn't have to edit any APN settings for 4G and MMS to work.
