So there isn't any method to remove root trace / logs right? There isn't even a trick to remove it? :(
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yoshikage_Kira:
What type of root you have. System or systemless.

Traces of systemless root is easy to remove. Just hard reset your phone.

[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AmirGTX:
I didn't rooted my phone right now, can you give me a method to root my phone and remove it without leaving any trace or logs?
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yoshikage_Kira:
I followed this guide to root my phone.

https://goo.gl/THborq

For unrooting either flash boot.img or factory reset your phone.
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AmirGTX:
But where is boot.IMG and how can I flash it. And if I flashed / Reset my phone will this keep any logs or even trace that I had rooted my phone ?
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yoshikage_Kira:
Yes it will erase the records. But to root the phone you need to unlock the phone's bootloader which will void your warranty and there is no going back from it. So choose wisely. Rooting isn't the only thing that will void your warranty. Unlocking the bootloader also can. By unlocking the bootloader even though you don't root phone your warranty is void.
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AmirGTX:
I asked a friend and he told me that you can flash UPDATE.APP and it'll remove the root but I won't receive the update If the company send, is this is right?
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yoshikage_Kira:
Yes. Absolutely right but Huawei did not send update for this phone. Even though my phone was untouched(not rooted&factory locked). So even then I had to flash update.app manually (which isn't hard at all) . Also Huawei isn't releasing p8 lite update anytime soon. So it is safe to root.
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AmirGTX:
I'm worry about later. Now I want to know how to unroot my phone and back it to it status before rooting it (NO any trace or logs that I rooted) if I flashed the UPDATE.APP will it back to it status before rooting it and will receive updates again? If not can you tell me a method to unroot it and back it to it status before rooting it (with NO trace or logs that I rooted) ?
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yoshikage_Kira:
I already answered to your question.

---------- Post added at 10:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:51 AM ----------

Short answer even if you you erase root traces you still won't receive update (ota) because of unlocked bootloader. I guess your didn't read the unlocking agreement that I mentioned earlier.

.

.

YOU CAN'T ROOT WITHOUT UNLOCKING YOUR BOOTLOADER.
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AmirGTX:
How? What I know now that if I rooted my phone and unrooted it, it won't be able to receive any updates again. What want I know that if there is a method to full unroot my phone to back it able to receive the updates again.
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yoshikage_Kira:
Sh*t there is a typo (damn auto correct) I am sorry my bad. You can't root your phone without unlocking bootloader. By flash update.app you can fully unroot but bootloader can't be locked again.
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AmirGTX:
That's I wanted to know, a lot of thanks for you. But how about if I flashed an unrooted ROMs, is there is any issue / damage for my phone? And from where can I get trusted unrooted ROMs for my phone?
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yoshikage_Kira:
You mean official firmware? I would recommend you to stick to the official firmware. It has least bugs. You can download it from here assuming your phone is from middle East. https://goo.gl/8KQo5e

Just press thanks/thumbs up button:good:
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AmirGTX:
No, I mean ROMs like CM and ClockWorkMod but not rooted.
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yoshikage_Kira:
CM(CyanogenMod) is a rom. Clockwork mod is a custom recovery used to install .zip files. By the way at this moment there is no stable custom rom available for this phone. So you have to wait.

Currently the only custom rom available is sokoban's rom which is same as official but allows you to install Xposed framework but it has some bugs I don't recommend you to install it. The custom recovery for this phone is TWRP team win recovery project.
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AmirGTX:
Does it need to unlock the bootloader? And if I unlocked the bootloader, is there is a method to relock it again for my phone?
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yoshikage_Kira:
Yes. Relocking won't make any difference(For example if you open your phone this will break the seal no matter how tightly you screw it again Huawei will know that you open it. Bootloader has same story). In fact once you unlock the bootloader it is recommended to keep it unlocked in case if your phone gets stuck in bootloop(brick) you will be able to restore it.
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AmirGTX:
Ok, Thanks a lot for your time.
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yoshikage_Kira:
Just press thumbs up button (thanks button).
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AmirGTX:
Already did.

I'm afraid you won't find this part sold separately. Dealers don't sell such a "detailed" spare parts. You will have to go for replacing whole motherboard
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fc_themaster:
I've just changed all the parts of this phone... the motherboard was the only good part after a fall. The entire audio-mic flat,purchased on aliexpress, is unhitched itself from the connector leaving the contacts inserted into motherboard connector ... it was difficult to remove the residue flex from the connector and this is what is left.

4 pins damaged.

Entire motherboard costs 100$ and i cannot spend as much for this problem.

I attach the connector that i want to change.

Good afternoon,

My name is JJ and my phone or service has taken a dump.

I have the Unlimited Plan with MetroPCS and its paid. I was on the phone today for an hour (on another device) and they have no idea what seems to be the problem. I live in great coverage zone. I have been having troubles connecting to the mobile network as well as getting, receiving both calls and texts. When I am connected to WiFi I am fine..ish. I set up apn settings a few times, most recent today with MetroPCS. My IMEI is good, paid in full phone which is a SM-G925T-ZDETMB (Galaxy s6 edge orginally from T-Mobile)

Took it to the store and they looked at me like I am a monkey. :silly:

I need my phone for work and can't afford to get another one. It seems to be in great working order other wise. I figure I might as well flash it and root it and make it mine or something. I downloaded ODIN and got freaked out because I have no clue what I am doing.

Be cool to flash it or root it with Nougat. Is that possible?

So I was hoping for a step by step guide here.

My service and phone worked great until about two weeks ago,..now its as intermittent and flipp flopped as Trump and his hair and policies. Thanks again in advance. Looking forward to a speedy reply. I got nothing else going on.

[BLU R1 HD Guides, News, & Discussion] chas0039:
So, I figured my mistakes can save some others some grief. Part of the problem is that this phone is relatively new and information is scattered all over so it is hard to find all that is necessary at a singe source.

I had the Amazon Prime 8 gb with 6.1 firmware. I first installed the SP Flashing tool and flashed the TWRP_Scatter_R1_Prime.zip. I already had the MTK preloader drivers installed. I then flashed the TWRP scatter file, Download Only, and all went well. I did a complete back up to my SD card. I wanted to run the debloating scripts at this point, but I had missed installing them on the SD card, so I installed SuperSU from TWRP after pressing Vol+ and power to reboot. Then I did a regular reboot. The phone booted just fine so I added the scripts to the SD card. I then rebooted into TWRP and ran all three debloating scripts and rebooted. Again, all went well.

Here is where I made my First Error. I reset the phone to factory defaults so I could go through the setup procedure. One of the video guides suggested this. I am assuming that one of the debloat scripts deleted the setup procedure since I now wound up in a perpetual loop where the phone kept telling me it could not run set up.

So, as I had made a complete backup in TWRP, I rebooted into TWRP and did a restore from my back up file. FAIL. No idea why. I then went to the video outlining the procedure for restoring a bricked phone using SP Flash and the correct txt file for flashing the default 6.4 firmware, being told that updating was OK. ERROR. SP Flash said I needed to re-run using the setting Format+Download.

Second Mistake. Half way through, another ERROR. And I now had a total brick. No recognition on a PC; no TWRP boot; no power up no matter how long I held the power button. DOA.

Please weigh in on anything I am missing or am mistaken on. Also, help other users in pointing out anything I did wrong and missed. At least this is only $50. But I am skipping this phone and staying with my old model.
[BLU R1 HD Guides, News, & Discussion] kal250:
With format+download make sure preloader is not checked....
[BLU R1 HD Guides, News, & Discussion] chas0039:
For anyone interested, BLU really doesn't want to repair the phone. Their regular rep said that I needed to send it back to Amazon as it was too early for them to repair it even with the warranty voided. I got a supervisor and they said that actually, they would fix it and the current cost with no physical damage would be $28.50. So with $4 shipping on my part I am back in business.

So anyone with a 6.6 brick has an option that is not too bad.
[BLU R1 HD Guides, News, & Discussion] jasonmerc:
If you had a Prime version and it was within the first 30 days of purchase, you could've send it back to Amazon to get a replacement, no questions asked, for free (this only works once by the way). Either way, glad to see Blu is willing to fix our mistakes. Maybe request that your R1 is restored with older, non-6.6 firmware. Probably won't work, but it's worth a try.
[BLU R1 HD Guides, News, & Discussion] yaconsult:
But do note that if you send it back to Blu for repair, it is very likely that when you get it back it will have the latest 6.6 update on it that disables SPFT so you won't have root, be able to disable ads, flash non-prime rom or any of that stuff.
[BLU R1 HD Guides, News, & Discussion] kal250:
My guess is, they will load it with the factory shipped image, unless QA loads the update during testing, but perhaps they wont.... Kinda like a roll of the dice on this one...
[BLU R1 HD Guides, News, & Discussion] mrmazak:
I found a similar problem on an other mtk device thread. Where either through formating or failed flashing that you end up in am appearently dead device. If it is the same, it is from the battery stats getting woped out. And the solution is to leave it plugged in for two to three days then try to connect to spft again.

I am skepticle but what harm could if do to try.

I beleive the boot ROM section is not writeable and not formatable. (The first 2mb of device chip) so, it should be seen by PC as some kind of com port

I did not have success flashing pree loader with spft but [MENTION=7644053]Persuasion89[/MENTION] has recovered his phone and as soon as he replies to my request for a file list you should be all set for a repair.

hello everyone,

the power button and the volume-down-button have both little or even no more function. I did not turn off the phone for several days now, knowing that I would not be able to turn it on again. I searched the internet for help, enabled usb-debugging and downloaded adb-files. I was able to connect to my phone and did the reboot command to see if it was working. it did.

my question is: once the phone turns off for any reason, will I be able to enter a boot mode (recovery, fastboot, download-mode: whatever they call it, I couldnt tell the difference) that allows me to turn on my phone or do I have to do additional steps..? At one page in this board (http://xdaforums.com/tmobile-lg-g3/general/how-to-boot-lg-g3-fastboot-mode-t3087445) I read that isnt as easy for the lg g3 as it is for other android phones to get into the right boot mode. is that thing necessary or can I use that "download mode" for using adb and starting the phone.

what commands do I have to enter to start my phone once it is in that respective mode?

hope you can help. looking forward to your answers..!

[Android General] Andrew_UK:
Hi all,

Last week I received my new Ulefone Power from China and thought it was a great phone. However, I quickly learnt that the Android 6 operating system came with non-removable malware which was really annoying :( Ulefone claim it was put there by a third party and they didn't know anything about it (What's that smell?). Anyway, I'm not 100% sure what the malware was doing, but I do know it was installing various apps and sending data to IP addresses in China which is scary enough. I also learn that by force stopping the application and setting it to disabled, didn't actually stop or disable to application at all, it was continuing regardless.

If you are interested, the VirusTotal and NVISO reports are here...

The VirusTotal report is here: virustotal.com /en/file/ed3ade7c76c5c78a6198a4c38d696e82d5ef2ad45e5bdda323ee4c770744bbbb/analysis/

The NVISO report is here: apkscan.nviso.be /report/show/b2b55bb69fbed7b12bfeaf9f3c89d639

Anyway, to remove the malware I thought about flashing the handset with a more reputable mod like CyanogenMod, but learnt there was only one other alternative mod, which I would later discovered also have malware in it :(

So, I've taken the Ulefone Android 6.0 ROM and removed the known malware CallerIdSearch.apk. I've repackaged it all. Sounds simple but the number of hoops I've had to jump through to get this to work is unreal!

Unfortunately, having removed the malware contained in the caller id application, now there is no caller id. However this is quickly overcome by installing one of the many genuine caller id applications from the Play store.

The ROM was flashed into my device using SP Flash Tool and it working perfectly (except the caller id mentioned above).

As usual, this post / rom is for educational purposes only and I am not responsible if you handset fails to boot, you loose your job because the alarm clock failed, or you fall off a ladder backwards because the vibrator is too strong.

Enjoy your malware free Ulefone!

When I enable 'play phone audio on watch' my car bluetooth is not able to connect to the phone and bluetooth in-ear handsfree has the same problem.

But the choice between having call notification on the watch and having car handsfree working is a hard one. Anyway able to have both of them simultaneously?
[LG Watch Urbane] Diewi:
If you place a SIM card in the watch, then it is possible. Of course, the SIM card in the watch must have the same number as the one in your phone. Please note that not a provider offer this so-called MultiSIM option.
