[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronald5:
I can't unlock the bootloader since Adb debugging and Oem unlock were not turned on
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] istperson:
1. Use the toolkit to only instal drivers.

2. On the Google site all OTA files are full updates, you can flash any of them, you don't need it in order

3. My advice, don't go back to Marshmallow, but flash the OTA for the 7.1 preview, it's more stable, and uses less battery than 7.0

The official OTA images:

https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/ota#angler

The preview OTA image:

https://developer.android.com/preview/download-ota.html
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronald5:
When i attempt to flash the OTA, this is what I get:

Opening update package...

Verifying update package...

E: Footer is wrong

Update package verifiable took 0.5 s (result 1)

E: Signature verification failed

Installation aborted.

If your bootloader is locked then there isn't anything u can do.. Try returning it if possible
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronald5:
There must be a way. Hopefully someone has achieved this and can help.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultyrunner:
If your BL is locked and you haven't enabled OEM unlocking and debugging, you are out of luck. You are effectively hard bricked.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] istperson:
You can flash an OTA even if the bootloader is locked. It seems that the download was unsuccessful, and the file is corrupted. Try to download it again.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultyrunner:
He can't use an OTA to revert to MM from N, which is what he is trying to do. And, he could only take an OTA normally or via ADB sideload. Flashing via fastboot wouldn't work.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronald5:
I tried both: flash.all.bat through Fastboot and sideload a zip through adb in stock recovery... neither worked for me
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] silencertk:
So coming from a Samsung phone (note edge) I'm missing a few things like

Hiding icons/apps in the drawer. Is there such option?

Creating folders in the app drawer.

Am I to stupid to find these options somewhere?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] schwem:
Nope, they're nonexistent on Pixel launcher. You'll need a 3rd party launcher to do those things. Pixel Launcher is and will likely remain uncostomizable.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] ajcscan:
I too would like to be able to lock certain apps and also have a hidden folder.

My XL 32gig unlocked is coming in this Monday (originally Nov 18-21) . I have AT&T as my carrier and wanted to know how things are working with the pixel. Any comments ?concerns ?things to fix ?Please share .Thank You !
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] crowsnestitsupport:
Am I am using my unlocked one on AT&T and there are the typical minor annoyances... No HD Voice/VoLTE, no wifi calling, and no built in visual voicemail option in the pixel dialer. But those are AT&T's fault.. all of the mentioned things work fine with my Verizon sim...
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] garyHal:
Does AT&T have any plans to introduce the features you mentioned?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] iceman4357:
No. They wont for unlocked devices at all. If you want to use those features you would need to go to verizon or Tmobile.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] drwx:
If you use Google voice, you can have visual voicemail.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] crowsnestitsupport:
Been an AT&T customer a long time and I seriously doubt it... They enjoy screwing Android and unlocked phones in general and cater to iOS..... The only non AT&T Android phone that has VoLTE is the HTC 10. They have never given any of those features to any of the unlocked Nexus so it's a fair bet they won't on the pixel either..
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] mtucker:
I pulled my ATT SIM card out of my N6 and put it into my Pixel XL when it came on Thursday. I have only made a few phone calls, but haven't had any problems. I have used it to watch many Youtube videos off ATT data. I also use a ATT Microcell at home since I live off the beaten path and it connects to that without problems while at home.

The Pixel does check for tethering permissions once you insert an ATT SIM card. There is a hotspot / Verizon thread for the Pixel that talks about an easy work around for that. The main post is http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=69229666&postcount=35

I always setup Google Voice on my phones. I don't use it for calling, but have it handle my voice mail to get Visual Voice mail. That and I have an old ATT 100 test messages for $5 plan so I do almost all of my texting through Google Voice.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] pclewis:
I tested it with ATT with my 6p SIM. I then put the Project Fi car in the Pixel and the ATT back in the 6p. I am doing a test over the next few weeks with a trip to Germany, Sicily and then a 2,000 mile drive in the US from Maine to Texas. That should confirm the choice. In Maine, US Cellular beats ATT. In Texas I don't know.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] garyHal:
I do have Google Voice but the uncertainty of android apps (ie: Hangouts being phased out, Google Voice app not being updated) wished there was something definitive to integrate with.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] adjday:
Hey folks, had my OP3 for just over a month and wouldn't you know that I dropped a tool on the phone just at the earpiece and the whole screen spider cracked! Totally bummed out.

When talking to customer care they said it could take up to 10 working days, but once creating an RMA they would pay for shipping and then give me an estimate for materials and labor once they finish inspection. Does anyone have any prior opinion with this approach?

On a second option, I purchased a 1 year insurance plan from OnePlus that they offered through a company called Assurant.."On Gard Plus 24".....but when talking to One Plus, they had no contact number for claims!! Only an email for North America. Luckily the email was real and I got a responce, and they will be forwarding my claim to the appropriate division. Has any one gone this route?? (BTW if needed the email is " Tony.acosta@assurant.com " ).

Or how about just taking it to a phone repair spot and have them order the needed glass? Any one do this with the OP3?

I look forward to hear what options you took and how much was the repair and how long were you with out your phone.

Cheers!
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] adjday:
I know I'm not the only one with butter fingers here......
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] superiscch:
Cracked my screen too, cost was €104 (screen, shipping, work) and the phone was gone for 20 days.

When asking if I can do it on my one they told me the screen isn't sold by OnePlus. So if you find one it's not genuine...
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] adjday:
superiscch...thank you for that...that is what I was hunting for. Funny how when my SGS5's screen cracked, it was just one line. Now you compromise the glass and it just shatters!
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] adjday:
Update

I got to talk to the insurance provider that was sold with the purchase of the OP3 and customer service was excellent...located in Canada. With the purchase of the insurance, the customer is allowed 2 replacement devices for damages regarding screen or water. This also includes manufacturer defect with unlimited replacement! They will replace your device with either a new one or refurbished model.....so

It's $80 for the insurance.....$75 for the claim. They then send out a replacement to you (2-3 days) and you get to move all your info from the damaged one to the new one and you then send out the damaged one! So your not left without a phone!

At this point I'm thinking this is the best service I have seen in a while! Hope this helps anyone else who has had damage their OP3.

I did receive an 1-800 number but it is with my notes that I don't have access to right now, but if it is needed I will post it LTR.....take care :highfive:

Anything wrong?? why that don't work? please
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] SevenSlevin:
You are using a P9 twrp probably there is something wrong.

Anyway to install update.app of b151 you need stock recovery and put that file in sdcard (dload folder) using PC (without phone).

Huawei has 2 recovery, the second is ercovery. You need to flash the first 1 and be sure that you have flashed it.
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] RicoMotril:
I need to flash B151?? and where i can find stock recovery?

What SDcard? the intern or the extern?? in twice I don't can access to folders or partitions...

only to fastboot commands and not all by example I can't erase userdata or cache and i can't access to the shell..
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] SevenSlevin:
External Sd Card man! Put your external sd card on PC and just copy from pc to it the update.app of b151 or b150 (I think it's the same), in a folder called "dload" (just create it) . After put your external on your phone and use 3 buttons.

[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] snapdesign:
for recovery and twrp is fastboot flash recovery not boot...other than that yeah you are using twrp for p9(eva). Try with the tools on this forum to flash twrp... and you just tried with boot and system...i told you to flash more files... and we need another info about why system flash failed... also check if bootloader is unlocked... maybe it's re locked
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] randhackr:
Like snapdesign wrote before, obtain the b151 firmware (vns-l31 or vns-l21 depending on your model).

Extract the zip file. Then you will get the update.app.

Use Huawei Update Extractor to extract the firmware files from the update.app.

ONLY flash boot.img, system.img and recovery.img. DON'T flash anything else. If you really want to flash everything either flash trough the phone after it boots properly or use DC-Phoenix (paid and dangerous, it will flash anything).

Don't mess with backdoor commands. Those commands require a special packet to be enabled.

Edit: And whatever you do, DO NOT use dd to flash those images. They all seem to have some kind of header in the beginning of the file (most likely a signature for validation).

Edit 2: Since you are flashing a wrong twrp recovery (P9 instead of P9-lite) and you are flashing it to the boot partition instead of the recovery partition, it is normal that your phone doesn't boot. Flash each image to the proper partition.

[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] randhackr:
Odd. But now you should create a folder on the microsd card named dload and copy the update.app there.

Try to boot the recovery (power + vol up). If it works reboot the phone and do the three button combo.

Edit: You can try to do a factory reset or also try dc-phoenix to flash the phone but it costs 15€ and doesn't flash the oeminfo partition (and again it is a dangerous tool).
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] RicoMotril:

i have buy phone las week, do you think is it possible to change it by warranty?
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] randhackr:
Since you have the bootloader unlocked your warranty is gone. Only if they can't see it.

Did you pay for the dc-phonenix credits? I remember that on my phone first it gave an error and then it proceeded with the flashing.

Edit: Did you select fastboot mode or upgrade mode? (DON'T select the img tab, it will delete your phone nvram contents like imei)

Edit 2: You can also ask on the dc-phoenix forums for help, or use their message system (if you paid for the credits).
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] RicoMotril:
Yes i have payed credit for restore. I tried selecting fastboot. Upgrade sames to be dangerous for the phone.

And if I lock my bootloader, they can see it?

PD: is i normal that the battery state is 0 and no like 30000+- ??

Thank' for helping me.:)
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] randhackr:
I recommended dc-phoneix because it worked for me :/ if you lock using the fastboot command it will say relocked instead of locked. If you want to use the warranty I would recommend using dc-unlocker lock feature, but I cannot guarantee that it will work.

I don't remember what was the value of the battery state sorry.

Since you will need to relock the bootloader, I would first try to relock the bootloader and then try dc-phoenix again. Since you have 72 hours with those credits on the same phone I would try that first.

If that doesn't fix it, regarding to the warranty situation you only have three options:

-> Send as is (they will see that you have unlocked the bootloader and will probably void the warranty)

-> Try to lock with dc-unlock (may not work)

-> Brick it beyond repair (disclaimer: this likely is fraud)

As for the help, no problem that is what xda is for :)

Edit: I've been checking the logs and the battery state should not be zero. I would let the phone charge while off with the supplied charger before trying anything else since it looks like the battery protection circuit has kicked in (very low battery).

[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] randhackr:
If the recovery now works do the three button combo with a stock update.app in the dload folder of the sdcard. That should flash your firmware back to stock. Then you can do a factory reset.
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] RicoMotril:
I tried but that don't work... I don't understand why:confused:

[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] vampire222:
I had this problem too but even worse, could not flash anything in the flashboot recovery even trying to oem unlock the phone resulted in 'remote: command not allowed' errors. Using DC Phoenix ( NOT DC Unlocker) costed me 15 credits but worked. Find the correct update.app file for your phone version and use DC Phoenix for flash it. It saved me a lot of trouble sending my phone back.
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] UltrashRicco:
Thank you so much for this post, I had the same issue with a blank screen and nothing could be done with fastboot despite successfully flashing boot, system and recovery partitions!

I had to use DC-Phoenix and had to pay 15 credits but it was worth it compared to a useless phone. It seems weird that no one managed to make something similar to DC-Phoenix for free so far, I wonder why?

By the way, I was trying to unlock the dual SIM feature on a single SIM phone, and it worked like a charm!

Many thanks! I will be pointing people with the same issue to this topic!

Bye! :)
