Ah, thanks so much! I'm glad my cable isn't faulty then. I haven't tested it yet without silent mode but the magnets, in my opinion, are just not strong enough. I'll give it a clean and test it again one afternoon when it won't disrupt my sleep :D
[Asus ZenWatch 2] arhornberg:
I had similar issues in my g watch. Sometimes it buzzed because of the loss of BT signal (airplane mode helped for that).

And sometimes it happened because charging was disrupted due to corroded or dirty contacts on my watch (cleaning helped).

[Asus ZenWatch 2] NealJ777:
This has nothing to do with loss of BT or dirty or corroded contacts on the watch. If you read through this thread and several other threads out there on the WWW, several people are facing this issue and it all seems to have started at the same time.

If you read the threads I have posted (here and elsewhere) I have also stated that I cleaned the contacts on the cable and the watch and still have the same issue.

When more than one person is reporting the same exact issue, then it's a problem with the device (software/hardware/OS, etc.) and beyond user control.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] B3501:
As to why phones were "exploding". It seems the original reason they had of a battery manufacturing fault is now incorrect and it seems theres a more inherent design fault? Incredible that the biggest phone manufacturer in the world, with all their engineers couldn't figure it out.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] GibMcFragger:
They either haven't figured it out, or they HAVE, and it's something in the hardware (motherboard, etc) that it's too late/costly to reengineer.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] macawmatt:
Read a story that mentioned it might be the SoC, designed it to push more power to the battery then it could end up handling. Really liked this phone.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] nique0201:
If it was that wouldn't they just push a update to limit the fast charging? Or the soc I gotta assume that's all handled by software.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] B3501:
I don't think it's a coincidence that the battery was the smallest and crammed into a tiny space, more than any other phone. There's got to be something in that, perhaps any sort of pressure on the back was causing some sort of battery failure.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] htcplussony:
All sorts of theories today. Too thin of separators in the batteries. Curve edge of the screen causing it. Fast charging. Some new battery fault etc. I don't think Samsung found the problem.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] mankvl:
They better. I hate them so much now... They wasted months of my life, wanting and not getting this phone. Some of you had at least a chance to test it out feel it.... All I got is 10 min. with demo unit. If they keep it to them self a lot of ppl will think they have no clue and the same problem could happen to S8. What phone to get now until S8E is out. I need excellent maniera, water resistance and of course big screen...
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] teegunn:
It sounds like they don't know yet and can't replicate the problem in their testing. But I don't know if we really know much of the whole story. There could be multiple reasons we never get a clear answer. I think the recall was forced upon them not only to limit litigation, but from the governmental agencies. It is sad that by far the best overall phone ever made to date has been killed off. There really is no other phone that combines all the great things the N7 has going for it.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Chippy_boy:
I agree with you. Canning the entire product is such a drastic move. If they knew what the problem was, ANY fix would surely cost less to engineer in, than they huge damage to their reputation, to their competitive position in the market (no flagship product available) and the hard cash costs of product write off.

But if they just can't figure out what's causing this problem, what could they possibly do? Could they say "you know, we don't know what the problem is, but just keep using them and sorry about the occasional fires". Obviously not. How about do *another* recall and risk Version3 phones catching fire too? Clearly they can't do that either.

Then consider the following: This problem is *rare* - 1 in 100,000 units perhaps? And it didn't show up in any pre-production tests nor QA checks. Add in the fact that they thought it was the battery, and then found out that it was not.

All this leads me to believe that they haven't yet figured out with 100% certainty what the problem is.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] evo4g63t:
It must be something that renders the design faulty meaning they'd have to remanufacture the device to fix it something that probably generate quite a wait time for people to exchange it. So canning it is a better option.

The two things I think are most suspect is

a) overheating either via charging or just using the SoC to the max and causing heating issues.

b) casing is designed in such a way that puts undue pressure on the battery.

Either way it's a expensive fix, sure you could firmware update it to slow the charge speed or down clock the processor but then you've got a whole other issue of false advertising. You paid for X and got Y.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Chippy_boy:
Not necessarily.

As I said above, what if they can't be certain what the problem is? What should they do then? The only option in those circumstances would be the course of action they have taken.

This is imho the most likely scenario. Clearly, they didn't think there was anything wrong with it when it was launched, and after extensive r&d and product testing. They thought the product was fine.

And now they are faced with trying to identify *with certainty* what's causing 1 unit in around 100,000 to fail, when all they get back to test are charred remains. They could not risk a second failed recall, based on not being 100% sure what the problem is, so their ONLY option in those circumstances would be to withdraw the product.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] B3501:
One things for sure, when they eventually do find out what caused it, a whole department is getting sacked! I bet there's a lot of nervous Samsung design heads just now.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] bv90andy:
Now they have 2 million phones they can test and replicate the problem. I foresee huge electric bills for them charging and discharging 2,000,000 phones.

Another theory is that in the first instance they jumped over a few tests to get the phone out before the iPhone 7, then in the first recall they didn't actually fix anything, just did a firmware update (how else would they have replacement devices within 1 WEEK?). The update turned out not to be enough, whatever was wrong with a certain percentage wasn't fixed by making them charge slower or less.

And now you can't really do a second recall and expect people to trust the same device. They are saving face, call it a loss, and move on.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] PhoenixJedi:
Do any of you think that this is full of crap though? Samsung has NOT completed their investigation yet, and until they do, for all anyone knows, the devices could have failed due to mistreatment by their users. Out of FOUR MILLION phones, only 35 explode, and of the replacement units only 7? Lets say the first generation was bad, and only count the replacements. 7 out of 4 million. That is a 0.000175% chance of your phone exploding. So, they discontinued the line for less than an even 1% chance, without waiting for the investigation to be completed? COME ON. PLUS, some of the people who had exploded note 7s REFUSED to return them.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] taz1458:
What I want to know, of the ones that have malfunctioned, were they damaged prior? Dropped, thrown, etc. That would definetly play into the battery cells being smashed together regardless if they are on or off. I don't buy into the heat thing entirely, because I've taken mine into the sauna 3 times and it's still fine. I'm debating what to do. I love this phone. My first note. I'll be near a best buy Friday, so I'll go in and see if anything pegs my interest and goes from there. I'd be happier if I knew when they were going to release something with a stylus. Absolutely love that thing.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] PhoenixJedi:
I also say theres another possibility. There's been incidents with USB-C cables in the past.. cheap cables.. (the kind you buy in gas stations and pharmacies). They've caused the ports to get damaged and devices (of all types) to explode because wires inside are hooked up incorrectly. How do we know that this wasn't caused by someone using a faulty third party accessory?
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] taz1458:
My point exactly. That was the rumor the first time. I got the Samsung cables, so I'm not worried about that. Just really wonder if dropping them, damaged the case, which put pressure on the battery and short circuited it.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] PhoenixJedi:
Here's the thing, SAMSUNG themselves cannot replicate the situation. No matter HOW they tamper with the phone. I guarantee you they're not using these bad third party cables, or trying to operate a device with partially compromised firmware from a failed root attempt, or other things they tell their end users NOT TO DO. I guarantee you they're testing the phone (other than dropping it and water tests) within the specs of what they tell users is okay to do with the phone.

Here's the other thing, the video of a 'note 7' supposedly catching fire in someones home... 1: its in black and white, 2: its a security camera in someone's living room. 3: YOU NEVER SEE THE ACTUAL PHONE ON THE CAMERA. For all we know she's holding a smoking piece of toast. Plus, consider that an overheating li-ion battery is a chemical reaction and that smoke usually means the battery has been punctured. HOW and WHY is she still holding it?
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] The Phone Company:
In hindsight, considering my Note 4 would overheat DRASTICALLY on the Gear VR Innovator Edition so much so that the Phone would produce a message to warn to let it cool down, Samsung Engineering should have seen this coming.

Maybe it was a Godsend, INTRUSIVE IRIS Scanner and all.

Or maybe it WAS a conspiracy, like nothing really was at fault, the powers that be saw something in the Note 7 they were not in favor of letting the public/consumer get their hands on.

We may never know. But rest assured something seems not quite right about the whole fiasco. Even a social engineering experiment.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Tangkapan:
Interesting read guys... I have my note 7 now for 6 weeks. Had the first one too before the switch. Both of them worked/work fine. No overheating. I am not sure if only exinos cpu variants are catching fire. Over here in germany there are no fires at all. It is sad that this phone is canned, and for the remaining working ones, there will never be a a software update at all. This phone is by far the best phone ever. Truly.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] downloaderfan:
Alright, I got my new redmi note 3 snapdragon 32 GB variant delivered to me just 2 days ago & I've been customizing MIUI as per my needs ever since. I've also rooted it & installed the xposed framework. I'm coming from a moto G 2nd Gen, which ran almost stock android. I've decided to stick with MIUI instead of flashing a custom ROM like cyanogen to see what MIUI has to offer.

But the one thing I don't like about MiUI is it's recent app view. The thumbnail view(iPhone style) in MIUI shows only 3 apps at a time & the icon view wastes too much vertical space. Comparing this with the stock android recent apps view, I can select like 5 apps without the need to scroll & the design just makes good use of the screen space available on my phone. Is there any mod which would allow me to get a vanilla android style recent apps view in MiUI? Thanks.

The problem is not the cable since keyboard, mouse and USB pen works perfectly on it.

I'm late to the party but it appears Samsung has compiled support in the kernel out. I'm recompiling for the T713 shortly with CONFIG_JOYSTICK_XPAD enabled in the defconfig. If it works here I'll compile for the T813 :)

This is evident by the fact that it works on LineageOS.

According to review ( http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_xperia_z5-7534.php ) and specification, 256gb will work. I suppose you just want to hear from someone who tested it in real life.

Also z5 is the first phone that support 256GB

I only use a 64GB Samsung MicroSDXC Card but according to the data sheet it supports up to 256GB micro sd cards
[Xperia Z5 Accessories] frostmore:
mate, sd card performance is dependent on various factors.

it's difficult to get consistent performance as:

1. The ROM you used may have a low read ahead cache

2. SD card capabilities.

3. the size of file you are moving

4. the file of the sd card you are using i.e exfat, ext2, ext3, ext4

to many variables can affect sd card performance. i say throw caution to the wind and get that 256gb card. i never gave too much thought when i bought my 200gb card.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrispy_212:
Every device I've ever had has been bootloader-unlocked and rooted within hours of receiving it.

However, with the Nexus 6P, I didn't think the hassle of losing android pay and OTA updates was worth it since the device works so well as stock.

I've seen the posts about porting the Pixel-exclusive features to the 6P via build.prop edits. However, as far as I'm aware, changes to the system partition break both of the above.

Is there a way to modify system files like build.prop without breaking OTA updates and Android Pay?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tech_head:
It's not just modification to the system partition alone. It has to be specific modifications.

build.prop may be one of those but, I have modified multiple files and that didn't kill safetynet checks.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thegios:
Ok but, the question is: is there a way to edit build.prop without a custom recovery and flashing a zip?

Maybe through adb?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Citizen_Snips:
No. If you're stock, no root or custom recovery, then no. dm-verity will overwrite your changes on boot and your build.prop will be stock again.

Enabling Assistant via build.prop tweak won't break Android Pay (shouldn't, at least), but it will cause the OTA to fail, even with systemless root / mods.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sorensonn:
Hi everybody.

TL;DR

Recovery hangs upon booting and fastboot mode doesn't show up ADB interface on my PC. How to flash the phone?

Long version:

I wonder if you can help me. My old faithful Note 3 is badly misbehaving. Yesterday I filled almost all its internal memory with some movies before heading out on a trip, but some time later when I reset the phone after unusually long boot all user settings were lost. Well, something went wrong, couple of hours later there was reset after reset so I wanted to restore previous backup... but couldn't. TWRP was showing error messages (TAR something something, 255) very shortly into restoring process. It couldn't restore backup but also couldn't make new one as well (similar error with TAR and code 255 when trying to backup user data).

Something was very wrong, so I thought maybe I will flash newer TWRP 3.0 and give it a try but suddenly after next reset I couldn't even get into recovery anymore - TWRP gives me black screen after several seconds into booting it. No icons, no reaction to key presses, nothing. Even holding power button does nothing.

Ooooookay, it's time to enter fastboot mode then and flash new recovery manually. So I enter it, connect phone to my laptop and... nothing! No ADB interface. Some kind of samsung driver is installing, but the most important one, for ADB, just doesn't show up. It's really weird. Reinstalling drivers doesn't help, only the same one device that shows up gets different names, but that's it - no ADB interface, and, effectively, I can't flash anything because fastbot and ADB can't see any device. Odin can't see the phone too.

What's going on? Is the internal flash dying or what? But if so what does it have to do with ADB not showing up? Do you have any ideas that I can try out in this situation? I checked my laptop with a tablet that I have on hand and it shows up its ADB interface without problem in fastboot mode even though it's the first time I connect it to this laptop, so laptop and it's system are fine.

If nothing helps then, well, One+ 3, here I come. ;)

EDIT: Problem solved. Turns out f2fs on data partition crashed and therefore TWRP couldn't start at all. I managed to flash Philz CWM via Odin somehow (after messing with drivers for some more time) which told me there is something wrong with /data because it couldn't mount it at all. It couldn't format it either. Fortunately SlimLP managed to start and after throwing up some errors I managed to do factory reset which formatted the internal memory back to ext4. Then flashing TWRP, formatting data back to f2fs, restoring backup and voila! It works again. Good, I'll wait until Note 8 if there ever will be one. ;)
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ItzCrooK2UxD:
OK So this morning I went to check on some bank accounts on my tablet. The screen became unresponsive, and after a few seconds the device rebooted. I went to enter my password and it crashed. It went to what looks like it could have been a stock recovery with an error that said something to the effect of "Error there is no PIT binary".

Steps I have taken to resolve my issue:

1) I contacted Samsung support, and went through their troubleshooting...no dice.

2) Plugged SM T713 into original charger, allowed it to sit 10 mins (it had an 80% charge when this started happening), and held the power button for 30 seconds (this fixed random wonkiness in my previous Nexus 7 (2013)...nothing

3) Googled my issue. I haven't seen anything relevant at this point. Most cases I see with this issue are the result of a bad odin flash. This tablet has not been flashed since I purchased it. I purchased the tablet new so a previous owner did not flash it either.

Additional details:

1) Running on Stock 6.0.1

2) Never rooted (this device...yet)

3) Installed apps all from the play store with the exception of Amazon Underground.

4) Device is currently under warranty, and warranty support has been requested.

My question is, has anyone had this happen without rooting or attempting to flash? Is there a way to resolve this without tripping Knox, or having to wait on a tech to service my device?
