[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crixley:
Honestly, I've been using android since it first started and this is the most dead forum for development I've ever been on. I think this is a great phone, is there something I'm missing as to why it died off so quickly? Or is this simply how tech is evolving now, and since people upgrade so frequently, essentially by the time you buy a phone you cannot even count on a dev community anymore, or at least not for more than a couple months. That means custom roms depend on the companies roms, so for the most part you're just going to get tweaked stock roms, and when you get ditched by the company, you're stuck on that android version forever. With the way companies update (or lack thereof), I'm going to end up being pushed away from android. I used to rely on the community, and frequently donated. If using android means buying a new phone every three months so as to avoid getting left behind, count me out
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] C_Karhu:
I'm no expert, but it could also be because of the Exynos. I've read that it's much easier to develop for Snapdragon.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crixley:
That is definitely a factor for sure, but even for custom kernels, etc. It is very slow. Seems like users ditched out in droves. I've had other exynos devices that didn't die nearly as quickly.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] featureza8336:
I found it so annoying when my phone would automatically set a default app when sharing something or opening a link. Previous phones and Android versions allowed me to choose "Just Once" or "Always" by my Samsung Galaxy S7 on Marshmallow didn't.

Well, they snuck the option back in there, don't know for how long.

Settings - Applications - Default applications - Default app selection - Ask before setting default apps

Thank you Samsung!... but it shouldn't have been an issue in the first place
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] takerhbk:
It's a good feature considering the majority Android users who don't really care.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] NWTSCL:
Is anyone else experiencing problems with the WiFi Assistant VPN service?

I have noticed that it connects to Google's VPN intermittently. And when it is connected, it blocks outgoing SMTP email from third party apps.

I contacted Google service through the Pixel. They first tried to blame it on my network. But the VPN connection is intermittent elsewhere too. And I experience no other problems when connected to their VPN but SMTP, and emails send when the VPN is disconnected. That and if I'm connected to a VPN, how could the WiFi service know I'm sending email? So obviously the WiFi services isn't to blame.

They, then, had me boot the Pixel into Safe Mode. But the intermittent VPN connection persisted.

Has anyone else experienced these problems?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] NWTSCL:
Surprising that no one else has experienced these issues. Google has confirmed both to me in support calls, and says that they are "working" on fixes.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] dnyc:
Interestingly, I noticed this today while setting up my work email. I was on Google's VPN when setting up email and it just wouldn't connect. I never used Google VPN until today. Stopped using it.
[Asus ZenWatch 3] slipmagt:
Has anyone found one yet that fits?
[Asus ZenWatch 3] Misterjunky:
re: screen protector

The zenwatch 3 has a curve in the screen so adding a screen protector

is not a good idea, screen protectors do a good job on flast screens but

on a curved screen it won't be long until you take it off due to the edges

getting messed up in a short period of time.

The gorilla glass 3 is way tougher then any screen protector and the

watch's screen is so small that dropping it accidentally would never

crack or scratch the screen unless you intentionally throw it on the

concrete sidewalk.

Many years ago when there were no smart watches which had the

gorilla glass screen savers were a must have accessory.

Good luck,

Have a great day!

---------- Post added at 10:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:32 PM ----------

Go to http://amazon.com and search for zenwatch 3 screen protector,

they have about 2-3 different ones you can check out.
[Asus ZenWatch 3] slipmagt:
Im not worried about dropping it, Im worried about banging it into stuff while I am wearing it.
[Asus ZenWatch 3] legalkill:
Here is mine with this (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01KZ7VAQA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) on it. Fits well enough and feels glassy enough to satisfy me. I used a Zagg on my moto360 and it was weird because the surface of that was above the watch frame. This Zenwatch is of course inset. I noticed no diminished sensitivity. Only issue is small band from edge that does not adhere.

O2 Neo didn't boot

l3v5y,

One question, what could happened whith my mobile after a hard reset and it still didn't boot?

I have a O2 XDA Neo and I tried to upgrade my WM5 to WM6, but unfortunatly it didn't pass.

Now my O2 didn't boot.

Did you have any suggestion about this problem??

I will be so glad if someone could help me. ;)

Thnks in advance.

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] l3v5y:
Can it enter bootloader (hold the camera button and soft reset)? if so, there is something in the wiki about recovering a failed upgrade.
[OnePlus 3 Accessories] Tikerz:
https://oneplus.net/oneplus-3-3t-leather-case-black

Looks really nice. You can see it covers the top of the phone unlike the style covers. Reminds me of the Apple leather cases for the iPhone which aren't bad.
[OnePlus 3 Accessories] ming3r:
Is made from Genuine Leather.

Genuine Leather is among the cheapest types of leather and is barley above being glued together pieces. I'll be excited if they ever use a full grain although it'd be overkill.
[OnePlus 3 Accessories] RichJo86:
Indeed, looks very nice. Hopefully it holds up well.
[OnePlus 3 Accessories] imam88:
I will buy that one. looks so elegant
[OnePlus 3 Accessories] carmello1911:
Was this ever released? Can't see it on site or anywhere else in stock yet..
[OnePlus 3 Accessories] badmoj0:
They removed it from the accessories site. It is now marked "coming soon".

https://oneplus.net/fi/oneplus-3-3t-leather-case-black
[OnePlus 3 Accessories] The Highwayman:
Yep, it seemed to disappear for a while.

But, it's back now.

I ordered one the day it became available, or, at least, I saw it online again..the 27th of December.

So, it's winging its way to me now! :):)

However, when I checked my account, it already seems to be "out of stock!" :( :crying:

I agree with those who think it look very much like the iPhone 6+ case which I've seen on a friend's phone.

I'm not particularly into cases that leave the top and/or bottom exposed, which is why I've abandoned the OEM Sandstone case which I bought with it, in favour of a (much) cheaper hard case by Pelosi, which, at least, fits all the way around.

But, this one is just too nice looking and tempting to resist and if it looks as good as the 6+ case, I'll probably risk keeping it on the phone..otherwise, it may, very quickly end up on eBay! :)
[OnePlus 3 Accessories] timbremer:
I'd love to see more photos and videos of this. I'd immediately buy one, but unfortunately it's currently out of stock in Germany...
[OnePlus 3 Accessories] hunhool:
Received today. It doesn't feel real lether at all,however it smells as a genuine leather stuff.,the biggest weakness of the case is,that it is quite slippery.I'm a bit disappointed .
[OnePlus 3 Accessories] timbremer:
Could you share some photos from more angles please? That'd be awesome!
[OnePlus 3 Accessories] hunhool:
Quick pictures.
[OnePlus 3 Accessories] timbremer:
Thanks! How does it feel? Cheap or comparable to the iPhone leather cases?
[OnePlus 3 Accessories] hunhool:
Feels ok,but a bit weird for me as I've never had leather case. Compare to i****? Can't, because never had that device, nor case.
[OnePlus 3 Accessories] paul92:
I have this one for 3 months. A bit expensive but I'm very happy.

https://www.amazon.com/StilGut-Genu...398&sr=8-1&keywords=StilGut+Book+oneplus&th=1
[OnePlus 3 Accessories] The Highwayman:
Mine arrived today.

And, I have to agree with you. It's OK, but for that price?

It fits really snugly, although it did reboot my phone and I hit the panic button as it started going through all sorts of weird things on the restart. I ended up removing it and force-closing the phone.

It's been fine since, the buttons are amazingly responsive IMO>

It reminds me very much of the Snugg Leather Case for the iPhone 6 in look and feel, however, unlike the Snugg, it doesn't protect the bottom.

Although I don't like that, I could live with it, although, to me, it just looks weird from certain angles! :)

So much so, that I've removed it and put a Spigen Rugged Armor Case on, which, IMO, looks and feels better in the hand.

To be honest, I looked at the returns policy, but, having slightly damaged the packaging on opening, it looks like OnePlus won't take it back anyhow.

So, I'll probably try it for a few days and see if it "molds" itself around the phone better at the bottom corners..otherwise, it'll be appearing on eBay pretty damn quick! ;)
[OnePlus 3 Accessories] hunhool:
Because I didn't like it,I just gave it to my wife.She loves it :laugh::good:
[OnePlus 3 Accessories] The Highwayman:
Well, at least, it hasn't gone to waste..:)

I'm happy with the Spigen Case, or even the original Sandstone....but I don't want to go down the road I did with the iPhone 6 and end up ditching the phone because I couldn't find a decent case/screen protector combo for it! ;)

Which, if any, case are you using?
[OnePlus 3 Accessories] hunhool:
Original sandstone and karbon case.
[OnePlus 3 Accessories] Masteryates:
Are you still talking about the leather case here? ;)
[OnePlus 3 Accessories] hunhool:
:crying::crying::crying:
[OnePlus 3 Accessories] hypertrack:
I have one as well, and while it does protect the case - it doesn't fit very tightly, though that could be due to the fact the entire bottom of the case is open instead of cutouts over the ports. This means that I can pop it out of the case very easily.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] goleoldark:
I stuck at step 4.

is this the directory where fastboot.exe is located -> C:\adb... I have 4 files there and 1 of them is named fastboot.

Also the files i downloaded and extracted from step 1 , do i need to put them in my device or they need to stay on my pc.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Ruben Craveiro:
C:\adb is where my adb and fastboot commands are.. on the downloaded files from Step 1 only the SuperSU zip is needed on the tablet so that you can flash it later on with twrp, the rest you leave on pc and use fastboot to flash TWRP, unsecured boot image, etc...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] goleoldark:
Ok so in "C:\adb" i put all files i downloaded from step 1 then I opened cmd in that folder , then i typed "fastboot flash boot unsecboot.img" and it said that i cant load or open unsecboot.img

Any idea why or where is my mistake ????
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Ruben Craveiro:
make sure you didnt put a folder inside the adb folder instead of the actual file and make sure your writing the right name of the file..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Ruben Craveiro:
also its not unsecboot, the name i added on this thread was just so it would be faster, the name is unsecuredboot.img and not unsecboot.img i guess ill have to edit that in order for people following the tutorial by line dont make these mistakes..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] xdadevelopers13:
how do i flash the stock rom came from Acer Predator 8 Product Support Page.

can i just flash this Android 5.1 Lollipop Image via TWRP???

TIA
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Ruben Craveiro:
yes
[Miscellaneous Android Development] xdadevelopers13:
thanks. will i have to flash the stockboot.img and P8AcerRecovery.img via fastboot?

tried flashing the stock rom via TWRP but to no avail.

still cant pass the boot logo
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Ruben Craveiro:
If you flash stock rom, i think you have to reinstall stock recovery, the rom itself already brings stock boot.. after flashing stock recovery it should boot since no modifications have happend
[Miscellaneous Android Development] p8tgames:
Wow good job! Now i have a recovery where i can flash my custom rom for the Predator 8.:)

How to enter the command ?

Hi i am not so sure how to execute those info in my head and act on it so can anyone teach me ? how to root my Predator 8 GT-810 Android 5.1

i saw the instruction i dk how do i Unlock Bootloader (Fastboot) i search all over google and i dont really got the solution to the question so anyone can teach me ? and "4. Open up command prompt and navigate to the directory where fastboot.exe is located." do i extract the whole file i downloaded into my Acer predator 8 or ?... im stupid sorry ...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Ruben Craveiro:
On step 4 You need the fastboot files, (adb & fastboot) just search how to install adb and fastboot drivers, choose the directory where to install them and place the needed files inside that folder and open a command prompt on that folder so you can flash the files.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ZaineJJ:
ir I tried finding how to install fastboot driver on Google all showed me downloads links must do survey or download or purchase item to unlock the download files ... So I don't trust it so I kept searching "how to unlock fastboot Acer predator 8"

So for ADB I can search on Google and install it on my tablet ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Ruben Craveiro:
no, Search how to unlock bootloader, it should show the method that works for most devices and give necessary drivers..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ZaineJJ:
http://gsmusbdriver.com/acer-predator-8

Does this work ?

Or

https://www.howtogeek.com/239798/how-to-unlock-your-android-phones-bootloader-the-official-way/
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Ruben Craveiro:
Yes, and after you unlock the bootloader, you put the necessary files in adb folder and flash them according to the stepts
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ZaineJJ:
Hi Ruben Craveiro is this the correct way ? i plugin usb cable into Predator 8 but it says its waiting for device is it the correct way ? after typing those Commands i go over to recovery mode to install SU from there then restart and its rooted ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Ruben Craveiro:
That means adb drivers arent corrently installed, but i can see you have the folder with adb, all you have to now is download this(drivers): http://dl.adbdriver.com/upload/adbdriver.zip

Extract and open the software eith the tablet plugged in, it should tell of drivers is installer properly or not, and if not you can install, after installing it should work on the cmd the commands..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ZaineJJ:
i check my device its correctly installed so now

i power off and power + vol down to enter fastboot mode -> i enter commands but its still waiting for any devices :0
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Ruben Craveiro:
have you unlocked the bootloader?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Ruben Craveiro:
This might be the reason: https://www.google.pt/amp/s/www.how...so-that-you-can-install-unsigned-drivers/amp/ but try reinstalling the drivers first using the link i gave u before and try to send the commands again
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ZaineJJ:
bootloader is it the page where i power btn + vol down btn enter that page ?

i went to developer options enabled OEM Unlocking is it counted as unlocking bootloader ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Ruben Craveiro:
No, you have to unlock the bootloader.. You enabled the ability to unlock, nothing else, reboot to bootloader and do fastboot oem unlock it should show something on the tablet if its recognized(If the command is sent to tablet it should ask you to confirm yes or no on the tablet use vol keys and power to select).. FYI Unlocking bootloader does a factory reset on the device...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ZaineJJ:
so i havent unlocked my bootloader :o alright ill find a way to unlock it thank you

If I make an backup, it doesnt find the backup file. Even on SD card. :( Needed to flash stock again, but if it gets ficed, i will go back (sad cause i was making a custom rom: lineage 14.1)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Ruben Craveiro:
i already talked about the bug in making backups, just make a new backup it will generate a new folder inside the twrp folder and put ur older backup on new device name folderit should then appear to restore
[Miscellaneous Android Development] toadstoolicious:
Ok. I'm very new to rooting and still a little confused on the steps but i can study it and figure it out. I was wondering if is a way to update the android software to marshmallow or nougat? I see threads from doing a google search but needs to do surveys just to download the file. Are these real? Is it really possible to update from 5.1 as we know isn't the most efficient software.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Ruben Craveiro:
they arent real, acer has never given any updates, we do have the source code, but theres nobody willing to try and make a custom rom

[Miscellaneous Android Development] biorpg:
Just a warning.. I installed TWRP using this guide, and upon rebooting I had an issue with the battery draining faster than it could charge.

I let it charge to full and entered fastboot and performed a full wipe to start over.

Then, well fell asleep with it sitting there in fastboot mode after it said successfully wiped. Needless to say it ran out of battery despite being plugged into USB.

This resulted in a hard brick, no power light, no sign of activity when plugging into computer, nothing.

Acer repaired it for free under warranty. The engineers note was

"NO power, minor surfaces scratches. The device OS was fully reloaded. Repair successful."
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Ruben Craveiro:
This isn't twrps fault, that usually happens when you use a damaged cable or an adapter that gives less power than the tablet loses.. it doesn't even make sense how it could be twrps fault.. it's just a partition like everything else, and unsecured boot it's all it does, unsecures it to allow booting OS, no crazy mods for battery..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Ruben Craveiro:
factory reset, if it still doesn't work, reinstall stock rom, flash unsecured boot and boot os
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Ruben Craveiro:
If you send that to warranty and told them what you did, you were lucky cuz not everyone would fix the tablet, since bootloader is unlocked and that voids warranty....
[Miscellaneous Android Development] biorpg:
I figured being honest and informative would be more effective than saying "It just died" and having them see the unlocked bootloader anyway.

Besides, from the note on the return slip it appears all that needed to be done was re-flash the stock ROM using whatever magical wand they have at the Acer service center. (..JTAG?)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] biorpg:
After being repaired and returned to me by Acer, the build number my Predator is on now is Acer_AV0L0_GT-810_1.165.00_WW_GEN1

I see no mention of arjaylzo anywhere in your thread. Neither before, nor after your paypal.me donation link.

Seems to me, arjaylzo did a lot of tedious footwork to figure out this device, while you dismissed all of it as "very easy" to do, supposedly with the use of "a tool" made for "another device", except for actually rooting it.

Then, despite your crude demeanor, arjaylzo explains in detail how he rooted the Predator, even uploading his files over a limited connection.

The result of your attempt to create a rooted image is unable to backup without changing a folder name or serial number, so you request that he download(with limited bandwidth) your image and fix it. (uploading over limited bandwidth)

He tells you he is unable to afford a new Predator tablet after he fried the GPU, and goes on to tell you he rooted the Predator using the older TWRP version and that backups worked fine there.

You finish by telling him that your TWRP can do all that, except it doesn't work - and that if it did work, it would be better than his.

You asked a whole lot of very technical questions which he answered while saying things like "I already did that", "What you've done is easy", "I did what you didn't", "You're youtube videos are useless", "I'll do the rest on my own", and "Just tell me how you rooted it" in at least half of your posts in his threads.

Not a hint of a "Thanks" anywhere from you to him.

And to top it all off, you don't even mention the fact that you can boot Ubuntu and Windows on this tablet within this thread.

I hope you drop the $20 donation I sent and bump your head trying to grab it.

P.S.

Unlocked Bootloader (enable in developer menu then fastboot oem unlock)

is 2 characters longer than

Unlocked Bootloader (search on google if you dont know how to unlock)

So, it seems less like laziness and more like intentionally sending people off to an increasingly corrupt search engine to sift through lots of rather dangerous spam results all claiming to be the specific goose you've sent them chasing after.
