[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robroth:
Getting a little further. Managed to boot into TWRP. Got into terminal, tried to copy in the build.prop file to /system that way but am being told I'm out of space.

Found a similar thread here I'm digging through.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robroth:
Just saw post #2, thanks. Thought I had it. I freed up some space in /system/app by deleting a couple of foreign keyboard files. Then copied in the build.prop file and this time it was the correct file size. Rebooted, but no change. I really thought that would have fixed things.

As an aside, df lies, there really was no space in /system
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robroth:
Looks like what I found was not a stock build.prop. I have no idea how much it differs but it contains this line:

ro.build.display.id=NexZen by VECTUS V07

Ha! Also it's for 5.1.1. Darn! I should have looked at this first.

Does anybody happen to have a pointer to a stock Nexus 6 6.0.1 build.prop? Google has failed me on this one.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Didgeridoohan:
Your original problem was, as you've found, that you had no space in your system partition. The reported 1.5 mb is way to little space to do any kind of system mods... I've found i need at least 50-60 mb free.

Stock build.prop is easiest found in the factory images, in system.img. If you're pushing it to your phone in recovery, don't forget to set the correct permissions (chmod 644).
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robroth:
Thanks, I did pull the file out of the stock ROM, but I must have gone wrong somewhere because it didn't work. I then looked at the /system directory and it was empty other than /system/bin. No idea how the heck I could have deleted the other files in there. That would have been a nice clean fix. But now I'm forced to do a flash. What a waste of a night! Thought it would be nice and simple to turn on wifi sharing. Ha!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robroth:
I figured 1.5MB would be more than enough to add a single line to a file, the file system block size I'm guessing is in the 2-4K neighborhood. Regardless, it clearly wasn't enough for whatever reason.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robroth:
I was on a stock ROM. Since I can't easily do a dirty flash of a stock rom, and I can't connect with adb, I need to try to find a TWRP version of a stock 6.0.1 or something really close. I'm pulling off whatever data I can save now just in case I have to wipe this.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Didgeridoohan:
If your /system is empty in TWRP it means you haven't mounted system. Under "Mount", make sure "system" is checked.

Sounds like the easiest thing for you would be just to fastboot flash the system.img from the factory image. That'll get you back on track.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robroth:
It was a really late night but I'm back in business this morning. I used this stock ROM image with TWRP and did a dirty flash.

i have encountered this on my newer nexus 6. whereas my older nexus 6 seems to be void of these characteristics.(i have started to believe it is because the older one was moved through the API levels smoother....19-20-21-22-23-24-25....as my new one has gone from 18--------to 25. THAT IS TOTAL PROCESS OF ELIMINATION. no idea if thats what it is.) i was able to to push a reboot and temp. flash into twrp from adb/nrt. i dirty flashed my ROM and GApps and seemed to quick fix.

---------- Post added at 03:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:47 PM ----------

there are a few key issues i have witnessed (as a whole) with a young and older sibling too..... which is not the subject of this issue but i think what i have come to learn can shed light on situational(from time to time) issue that i have to deal with when consistent flashing. the RO/RW is now a part of my routine for the newer phone(cause it will randomly drop its RW for no reason and prevent proper filing for busybox or in my case nethunter libraries)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robroth:
whew. I was gritting my teeth on reboot tonight after editing build.prop again, but this time it went without a hitch. It sucks how you can find all these great articles about how to do stuff, but invariably I own the one phone where there's a gotcha that one doesn't think to look for :)

[HTC One Mini] anish.mvj:
So, here I am with the same problem everyone else is having here. I left my phone abandoned for around 6 months, I booted it up and it didn't. Then to my thought I will charge my device. I put in the charger and scary fastboot mode comes up on the screen with

***Locked***

M4_UL etc etc. and S-On

I have never done unlocking and rooting its just factory OS with bootloader locked [Never unlocked].

I have gone through the entire forum looking for answers but couldn't find the answer. None of the fastboot commands work apart from getvar all.

If i try to flash recovery it gives "Remote not allowed". When I try with unlock.bin to unlock bootloader it fails as the disclaimer screen doesn't comes up.

I am stuck with this for almost 1 month. Please guide me on this. I just want my phone to boot up with OS not unlocking required if not necessary. Tried RUU also but no luck.

Will donate few bugs if it works.
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stealth Assassin:
Hi ya i'm totally new to all this and thought i could pick the brains of you much smarter people, i'm having trouble with my IMEI,

i have a sony xperia z5 which is rooted and has xposed on it with imei changer module for xposed which all seems to be doing what its meant to masked the IMEI with that of a different one which pops up when you do the *#06#, but i still can't make a out going call?

I have heard a lot about the EFS folder which stores important info in the root, i have used a root file browser to have a look but the folder doesn't seem to be there?

i'm running android 6.0.1, if anyone could point me in the right direction because i'm at a loss looking at info that goes around and around in circles,

if what i'm reading is true and your IMEI info is all stored in there shouldn't my IMEI be blank if the EFS folder is gone? does 6.0.1 store it differently?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, cheers :)
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stealth Assassin:
more info

Hi ya people, just some more info, i restored the back, then put everything back on there, superuser/rooted, xposed frame/installer, imei changer, then i see my imei was blank? i found the imei number from my second phone and put it in, now imei changer shows it as both current and original? and the *#06# shows the same number, still can't find the EFS folder, has my z5 been reduced to a very small tablet or is the any super smart people out there that can point me in the right direction as trying to find out any info on this problem seems to be like looking for rocking horse sh!t ;*)lol

i might search for a original z5 rom, then flash it but im guessing it wont put back the imei number/EFS folder,

does anyone this that copying the EFS from my Z1 and copying it to the z5 will help or just spaz it up, im grasping at straws ;)lol
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mario.D:
If im not wrong EFS folder are something samsung uses and also some cheap chine phones.

Sony stores the imei in the TA partition wich i dont think you can change, the phone will be hard bricked if you do it.

[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stealth Assassin:
Cheers for the info mate as you can tell i know don't know anything really about this, i'm just trying to piece together bits of incomplete random and sometimes conflicting info ;) lol

my imei number is gone i think now, and i'm guessing its very likely not going to work again properly, but i will keep tying for a laugh if nothing else, i will check out the ta partition and see if i can find any info to make sense of it, then maybe unleash the hex editor out on it and kill it for good ;) lol

Thanks again for your reply, take care mate. B)

Im with tmobile, rooted, and running the most recent Pure Nexus rom and really need to find a way to prioritize band 12. I get -80 dbm on 12 and with out moving the phone it will consistently switch to band 2,-120dbm. I know in the past *#*#3282#*#* would get you to the engineering screen and you could change it there, but apparently that's not accessible any longer. I'm hoping there's a file to change or radio to flash. I've spent dozens of hours trying to find the answer, and keep hitting the same dead ends, so now I'm pleading for help. Thanks for your time

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snipersquad8:
Hello,

I got hired by a smaller phone company here in the US.

I'm trying to convince the bosses here that we should put our source code and send a few free phones to developers from here. They have given me permission to dump the source tree for a couple of older models, and I'm working on getting permission to send out a few phones to some developers.

I was hoping someone would be willing to throw together AOSP or CM in exchange for a phone to build and test with.

I won't lie, the phones were built for the Latin American market, so they're not using Snapdragon 820s or anything like that.

The end goal is to be developer friendly.

Anyone interested? And where should I dump the files I have?
[Xiaomi Mi Max Questions & Answers] jkthas:
NONE of the ROMs provided by official miui or unofficial miui.eu or even cyanogenmod that I have been trying has /system/lib/modules/tun.ko included.

The kernel sources provided by:

github.com/karthick111/android_kernel_xiaomi_hydrogen/blob/cm-14.1/drivers/net/tun.c

github.com/zhaochengw/android_kernel_xiaomi_hydrogen/blob/mkm/drivers/net/tun.c

github.com/TheStrix/android_kernel_xiaomi_msm8956/blob/cm-14.1/drivers/net/tun.c

already have required files on it.

All I need to request to developers here is to "Edit the file .config, and check for the value CONFIG_TUN

If there is not a line CONFIG_TUN=m, create it" while compiling the kernel.

This module is essential to make VPN connection especially for those who lives inside Middle Kingdom.

Thanks in advance.
[Xiaomi Mi Max Questions & Answers] oatcooky:
What VPN protocol are you trying to use? I've successfully used OpenVPN on MIUI 8 and the latest RR on Hydrogen, both within the Middle Kingdom and outside.
[Xiaomi Mi Max Questions & Answers] jkthas:
Cisco AnyConnect will not connect to its server with or without certificate.

IPSec & ShadowSocks will connect, but NO data traffic.

I have tried those with Cyanogenmod (karthick111, zhaochengw & TheStrix) builds.

I also tried with official MIUI and miui.eu builds too.

What specific MIUI 8 build do you use? Global version? Any link that I can try?

Do you have /system/lib/modules/tun.ko inside it? Please share with us if you have it :)
[Xiaomi Mi Max Questions & Answers] oatcooky:
I'm only using OpenVPN, not those protocols you mentioned. I got it working with MIUI 8 global beta and the latest Xiaomi EU ROMs, along with RR. I looked for that tun.ko file but couldn't find it on RR. Guess you do need someone to recompile the kernel with tun.ko support.
[Xiaomi Mi Max Questions & Answers] jkthas:
This request is not true with regards to Cisco AnyConnect & ShadowSocks VPN as I updated each apk to the latest releases :silly:

However, (built-in) IPSec is still not working for me.

Anyone here have IPSec VPN protocol works with hydrogen on any ROM?
[Xiaomi Mi Max Questions & Answers] jkthas:
IPSec protocol solved by adding "esp=aes128-sha1" into /etc/ipsec.conf on strongswan's server side. :laugh::laugh:

This config is works with both iOS & android clients. :victory::victory:

Sorry to waste your time xda developers. Module for VPN (/system/lib/modules/tun.ko) is NOT required to run most popular VPN protocols as /dev/tun already provided by built in kernel. :good::good:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ziggykd:
I'm trying to change the sound WM uses for the pop-up dialogue (for instance, you install a program and a dialogue pops up and says you have to restart... that sound). I've gone through every option available in Settings/Sounds & Notifications, but there's no entry for it. Does anyone know of a way to do this?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] skenobi:
This is what I did (altho the results of the following steps are entirely YOUR responsibility):

1. MAKE BACKUPS! From Activesync, "Explore" the phone. i.e. in a Windows Explorer window.

2. Dbl-click "My Windows Mobile Device". Dbl click the "Window" subdirectory.

3. Sort by filetype.

4. Navigate to where ".wav" files are.

5. Select all the ".wav" files and copy them all en masse to a separate directory on your PC. (all the hidden system wav files should also have been copied in the process).

6. play all the wav files until you find the one that irritated you the first time.

7. open a registry editor of your choice on your WM device. (I use SKTools)

8. search for the file name from step 6.

9. Try the full name plus extension first. If no result, then try the name without the extension.

10. Replace instances of the filename with the wav filename of your choice (I assume you have one). If there was an extension in the first place, include the extension as well.

The outcome of all the above is your responsibility. The steps worked for me, and if you are familiar with how to edit WM registry items, the steps should work for you as well.

good luck.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ziggykd:
Thanks for the reply skenobi. Reading your response, it occured to me that once I find the wav files WM is using, I could probably just replace the sound I don't like with a renamed copy of the one I do (i.e., replace Alarm2 with a copy of Alarm4, renamed to Alarm2). I think I'll try this out first, before I buy a registry editor.

Thanks again!

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ipaqowner:
Does this work with WM6?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] skenobi:
That might work, altho (if I'm not mistaken) some wav files are in ROM, i.e. you can't rename/replace it.

Your mileage may vary, as they say.

Good luck.

can anybody help me?

[Mate 8 General] MathewBrack:
It's not as complicated as you might fear, stick with this and we'll get you back to 4.1 :)

You have to be using EMUI 5's stock recovery for this to work, if you don't have it anymore use the Huawei update extractor to pull it and then install it via fastboot.

Then place the update.app file from the 4.1 firmware you want to roll back to into a folder called dload in your internal storage's root directory.

Turn your device off and hold VOL+, VOL- and power at the same time, it should enter dload mode and automatically start updating. when it is done you should be back to 4.1

You'll need to re-unlock your bootloader and reinstall TWRP for 4.1 but that should be it :)

any questions?
[Mate 8 General] craigzhong:
first of all thx4helping.

can u tell where to find this EMUI5'S STOCK RECOVERY...
[Mate 8 General] MathewBrack:
Ok, so you should already have it, unless you installed some form of TWRP since updating to EMUI 5.

If you don't have the stock recovery anymore:

extract the EMUI5 rom zip that you flashed to update to your desktop

download this tool on to your computer

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2433454

run it and hit the "..." button, this will open a new window, find the update.app file that you just extracted and select ok.

This will bring up a list of files one will be called recovery, right click it and click extract.

Then in fastboot mode:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

let it run and you should have the stock recovery back again

If I connect my Pixel running NDE63V to my PC using the USB-A <> USB-C cable that was provided with the phone, I notice that with the cable inserted into the phone one way, Ampere keeps telling me that the power is being connected and disconnected every couple of seconds. Turn the USB-C connector the other way up and the problem doesn't happen.

Same problem with USB file transfer - with the connector one way up the USB connection keeps dropping back to charging only after it has been set to File Transfer, and I can't transfer files, with it the other way up I have no problem. Should this be happening? At the moment I don't have another USB-A <> USB-C cable to test with to see if the behaviour is the same.
