2) Check whether "Android Device Manager" is enabled in Settings-> Security -> Device Administrators if not enabled ,then enable it .

3) Login to Device Manager

https://www.google.co.in/android/devicemanager

4) There you will find an option to "Lock the device" . Lock it with new Password/Pattern.

That's It :)

Hope It Helps :o

Please hit Thanks If worked! :)

Note: Do Connect The Phone To Internet!
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pelago:
Thanks. I think this would have worked, or I could have used myxperia.sonymobile.com similarly. Unfortunately I rebooted the phone, and it turns out, even with fingerprint enabled, that it needs a pattern to unlock the first time after rebooting! I had to wipe it with Xperia Companion (there seems to be no on-device recovery user interface that we can use), which was annoying.

I've now set it up again and made very sure I knew the pattern before adding fingerprints!

Followed the guide in my Lenovo Vibe p1a42 rooted running custom AOSP Extended 5.6 . I tried installing Custom Carbon 5.1 Rom. The installation/flashing process is completed successfully, But after choosing the second Rom and rebooting the device, the boot open TWRP Recovery. And further boots also open recovery. I had to reinstall the AOSP Extended Rom using TWRP to boot into Android. Can you please suggest what would have gone wrong on my end which resulted the reboot to boot into recovery rather then the second ROM.
[Lenovo Vibe Z2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] GokulNC:
Note:

This is not bootanimation, this is the splash screen (the 'Lenovo' boot logo which is displayed when device is switched ON)

This is for Lenovo Vibe Z2 Pro Only..

For other devices, please send me your splash.img so that I can create a tool for you too.

Requirements:

1. Rooted Lenovo Vibe Z2 Pro Plus (any ROM)

2. Optional: Terminal Emulator app or Custom Recovery or atleast working fastboot in computer

3. You're proceeding at your own risk.

STEPS to create splash.img:

1. Make sure you have a picture in PNG format with resolution exactly 1440x2560px.

2. Download & Extract this: Vibe_Z2_Pro_Splash_Maker.zip

3. Now rename your picture as logo.png & replace it inside "pics" folder of the extracted folder.

4. Finally, run the 'CREATE_LOGO.bat' to create splash.img and flashable zip file, which you can find inside the "output" folder after completion.

STEPS to flash splash.img:

Choose any one easy method:

a. To flash from recovery:

Transfer the flashable_splash.zip to your device and flash from TWRP or CWM or Philz or any other custom recovery.

b. To flash from Terminal Emulator:

Transfer the splash.img to your device's Internal Storage, Open Terminal Emulator & enter the following to flash it:

su
dd if=/sdcard/splash.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/splash

c. To flash from Fastboot mode:

fastboot flash splash splash.img

Note:

Incase something goes wrong or device doesn't bootup, flash the stock splash.img from custom recovery or fastboot.

Hit the Thanks :good: button if it worked for you :)

You're welcome to post the splash images that you created..
[Lenovo Vibe Z2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Electry:
I am on Linux so i couldn't use your .bat script, so I just did it manually, and it works :)

In case anyone wants to try this on linux, here's what I've done:

First install ffmpeg, in my case it was

sudo apt install ffmpeg

Then create the splash.raw (out of 1440x2560 splash.png)

ffmpeg -i splash.png -f rawvideo -vcodec rawvideo -pix_fmt bgr24 -y splash.raw

Append it to the header.img

cat 1440x2560_header.img splash.raw > splash.img

And finally, flash via fastboot

sudo fastboot flash splash splash.img

I just updated the Lenovo & powered by android logos, take a look.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kaiser47:
i know it is ontly the begining of the "touch adventure" and perhaps i should better ask their respective developers but something that makes me perplex about these programs : ok these touch softwares are nice, fun, exiting .... but all are very limited i think : only 6 shortcuts for the programs ? only 9 contacts ?

it is a "false cube" with only 3 faces : why not using more faces for more apps ?

why not a "scrolling zone" in each face to make it display more things and scroll through more contacts ?

it could be better with more functionalities.

what do you think ?

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] bchau:
The HTC Cube is essentially a quick launcher for some essential apps or for calling favourite contacts. You can argue that that is also what the HTC Home Screen is for.

I think as a first attempt, HTC has done a brilliant job. Hence you see some developers are doing a clone of the Cube. Granted, there are a lot of rooms for improvement and I hope HTC would continue to work on it like extending that to 6 sides Cube.

[Moto G 2015 General] lost101:
Please discuss, post support and spread news about this petition: https://www.change.org/p/motorola-please-include-moto-g-3rd-gen-for-android-nougat-update

Motorola, please include Moto G (3rd Gen) for Android Nougat Update​

On 4th October 2016 you announced on your official blog which handsets would be getting the Android 7.0 (Nougat) update.

Absent from the list was the Moto G 3rd Gen (Osprey) and Moto G Turbo Edition (Merlin) - making them historically the first Moto G phones to receive only one major Android update. Both Moto G 1st Gen (Falcon) and 2nd Gen (Titan) where given two Android updates - KitKat and Lollipop in the case of 'Falcon,' and Lollipop and Marshmallow for 'Titan.'

The abandoning of support for both 'Osprey' after 8 months (Android 6.0.1 was released in March 2016) and 'Merlin' after only 3 months shows that the Moto brand now will no longer respect the previous practise of providing ‘18 months of update support.’

Included on the current official Nougat update device list is the Moto G Play (4th Gen) - a handset with weaker specifications than both 'Osprey' and 'Merlin.'

The issue is not technical limitation. You appear to have simply decided your last generation Moto G handsets are no longer important.

The Moto G Play uses the exact same chipset and GPU as 'Osprey,' but runs at a lower CPU clock-speed. This profound hardware similarity suggests that in the process of making the update for Moto G Play; much of the work needed to produce a Nougat update for 'Osprey' would be completed.

Moto X Play (also on the Nougat update list) uses the exact same chipset and GPU as Moto G Turbo Edition - making both devices Vulkan compatible.

Moto G is a mid-range device, but your update support for it shrinks with each year. Why should people have confidence in your products when you so casually drop support for your best-selling phone?​

To play the devil's advocate, why does anyone care about Motorola updating the G3 to Nougat when it 1) has an unlockable bootloader and 2) is on the list for official CM14? This isn't an iPhone. You don't have to depend on the manufacturer for updates. Honestly I think Motorola was counting on G3 users flashing CM14.

Personally, I don't care if any phone I own has OTA updates as long as I have glorious CM.

[MENTION=6039612]argentwarrior20[/MENTION] - You are assuming battery-life and performance is just as good in CM/AOSP, as on a Motorola developed Stock ROM. No disrespect to the XDA Devs, but Motorola can optimize and tweak for a superior experience. Also as already mentioned, specific features may only be supported on Stock. If it is at all possible, you should want the option of Stock Android 7.0 to be available.

although I seriously doubt that g3 and g power wont get the update.I mean,they arent even old,plus they are compatible,if they dont get the update the one to blame is totally the crappy lenovo which provides just 1 major update(for example,lenovo a6000 and tab 2 series but pretty much almost every their device can be here) and that update is so buggy that it either takes them 1 year to fix the bugs and optimise it or they dont fix them at all.

Moto G3 deserves it!

I'm in!

Moto G3 being one of the best sellers for the company and part of the G series which revived the Motorola back from dead, it deserves getting an update. Lenovo is doing bad business if they are going to neglect G3, cuz timely updates was something that kept Moto ahead of the league. It doesn't make the product desirable. It's like, if Samsung is going to release the next generation Galaxy Note without an S-Pen. Providing updates reassure customers about the reliability of the product. Hope Lenovo just realise the mistake they are making and add Moto G3 and Moto G Turbo in the Nougat list. Afterall it's not going to be a big deal to proovide the update given the similarities with models which are scheduled to receive Nougat update.

I am with you, had a Motorola and was Happy with 2 Updates
[Moto G 2015 General] Agu_Ra:
You're quite right. Software updates are disaster when it comes to Android. Almost every device manufacturer has very poor Android updates support. I mean, if you don't have a Nexus, you won't get even decent support, leave alone some great support that Apple provides for its devices. Motorola used to be one of the few that provide decent support, at least for their X and G line. But now we've lost them.

I guess, eventually Motorola Mobility will cease to exist and "Moto" will remain just as a brand for yet another Lenovo devices. This year is significant for Motorola: Lenovo shortened further devices branding to just "Moto", abandoned E 2015, then they announced new G models don't following previous G line concept (what about 5.5" display for the device which predecessors were relatively small devices? design is uninspired and unrecognizable, yeah, it's not bad but new G line has a look of "yet-another-android-device"), furthermore, these devices already have Lenovo branding in some regions, after all they fired a plenty of staff from Motorola Mobility, now they abandon not old and still kicking G 2015, well done, Lenovorola. Doesn't it look like all they need is Moto brand and patents? Yes, it certainly does!

Well, they don't care about customers, as we now can see, they use marketing driven software updates strategy (well, that's the case with all big OEMs, which is many times proven here on XDA, but there should be some balance between satisfying customers and having your pocket as full as you can, and decision to purchase Moto device was made by me because of their relatively great support, only Nexus boasted better), but at least they could care about reputation, but they don't. Good bye Moto, good bye Lenovo, thou shalt not make fools of us anymore.

P.S.: Moto are no more providing decent update cycle, relatively accessible Nexus line appears to be almost dead giving the way to very expensive Pixel devices. I guess, from now and further we won't see new smartphones with decent support for reasonable price. Oh, there's OnePlus but these guys are not so reliable considering updates speed for pre-OP3 phones (as far as I know, 2 and X just received Marshmallow, not sure).
[Moto G 2015 General] GeTex:
just my 2cents, androids biggest two supports are google and CM. Both actively support devices well beyond any other MFG(even Samsung is getting lazy), CM brought the Galaxy S3 all the way to Android 7 if i'm not mistaken, and Google basically pushes updates like free samples of cookies at a bakery. Expecting any support from any major MFG is a joke, Apple does a better job at that(minus the fact apples updates are really sketch and usually involve alot of issue and headaches)

I don't own these devices but is there a CM build available? If so it may be better, it gets better security updates and has closer to googles stock programs.

To Motorola, It's sad how far you and all the other major MFGs have fallen, a company that started up as a search engine has better support than a major hardware manufacturer. Sad

First Nokia was down, now Motorola is going away. I wonder if we can find any decent phones in near future. Especially when Nexus line is probably dying, we don't have Dev-friendly devices.

As you said, OnePlus is not a perfect candidate for expecting regular updates. And what's more, rooting and modding is becoming more and more difficult. Many companies do not want to release source, making community development difficult.

2009-2013 was a good time BTW. I was hoping to get the new HTC nexus, but now I can't decide.

Funny, HTC started the android (T-Mobile G1 or the Dream), it started the nexus line with Nexus One, now the same company is going to make the final one. We, sure are getting into chaos of new phone companies.

My understanding is that the move towards a larger screen has been gradual because that's what the key retail markets for these devices want. The tendency in Latin America and India has been towards single, larger screen device ownership - rather than laptop and phone for example. I believe the release of a 5.5" Moto G is a response to market trend, rather than Lenovo trying to personalise the brand. I'm fairly sure there are interviews on YouTube with Motorola Mobility in the last few years talking about this subject.

Thank you for contacting Motorola.

We are sorry for the inconvenience caused.

As per your concern we would like to inform you that Moto G (3rd Generation) device will not receive Android Nougat update.

Motorola always thrives to provide an optimal android experience to the user and unfortunately the hardware on the Moto G (3rd Generation) device will not be able to provide you a smooth experience. Hence this device will not be a part of the upgrade process. Please visit www.Motorola.com/updates for more details
