[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Ivalicenyan:
New issue: Live support team helped me flash my device back to stock. And I resume my day.

Eventually notification notified me of an update downloaded and I agree to install, and then it bootlooped on me.

What luck. Anyway what should I do now, technically my system wasn't wiped like before so I should have more options right?
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] nicksmizzle:
boot into fastboot and flash all the .img files (except persist and recovery) found here https://build.nethunter.com/misc/oneplus3T/partitions/

make sure the files are in the same folder adb is in

the commands are

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash system system.img
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Ivalicenyan:
Even if I had USB debugging turned off and no OS?

edit: I didn't realize two of those file were 3GB, that said do I flash system and system sparse? Those are system-sized flashes are those two different systems?

And is there a flashing order?
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] nicksmizzle:
if you are in fastboot usb debugging is null. do boot and then system, don't worry about system sparse. boot and then system is the flashing order.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Ivalicenyan:
Do I assume dsp.img is another one I should ignore?

And: error: cannot load 'system.img'

Boot worked fine tho
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] MrMeeseeks:
Flash the stock recovery.img from that link. Then reboot into recovery. Select English, then Install from ADB. This will put you in ADB sideload. Then flash the full OTA zip by using the command adb sideload *name of the file*.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Ivalicenyan:
That sounds helpful but I'm not familiar with the commands.

But before I do, how sure are you will that work before I go for that? What I knew about flashing a new rom didn't help me due to an error, what nicksmizzle told me to do with flashing system in fastboot didn't work, what if tossing TWRP out the window and going back to stock just digs me even deeper in my hole?
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] MrMeeseeks:
It won't. The OTA's are made to be installed in stock recovery. You can check the OnePlus 3 community forums if you would like for more information. But installing the OTA on stock recovery is safe. And BTW, I have done it so I'm not just guessing or anything.

---------- Post added at 07:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:14 AM ----------

Here's a video to kind of give you an idea of what to do. It's not the greatest but it's short. You will have to fastboot flash the stock recovery image first as the video doesn't cover that. [youtube]Bs5cvLiZd8E[/youtube]
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Ivalicenyan:
I went ahead and did that, but when I went to ADB sideload, my computer wouldn't recognize the device

and in cmd prompt it just says waiting on device
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] s3axel:
What OS are you on ?

The command "adb devices" should give a device number as return, if not you may need to install an adb-driver on Win-Systems.

HTH,

Axel
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Ivalicenyan:
Windows 7, but don't I already have the drivers if I was able to install twrp or reflash stock recovery?

Also I did a google search but all im getting are adb drivers for nexus. Is there a generic one I can use somewhere?
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] s3axel:
Well, when you are in adb sideload mode and the device is plugged in you should be able to see that in the Windows device manager. AFAIK the download mode (fastboot flashing) is different than adb mode and you may indeed need an adb-driver (just google it, its available quite easily on the web).

But before you do so: does "adb devices" return a device number ?
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Ivalicenyan:
Nope, thats what I implied in the 1st post without saying so, I said I ad no adb, as in no adb communication between my device and pc. I didnt think adb worked without usb debugging turned on because before I even created the thread I did over the flashing guide I used to install TWRP. devices didn't give me the serial like it did yesterday when I flashed twrp.

and I searched adb sideload opeplus 3 drivers and its just giving me oneplus i isntalled that came with the phone. Unless theres something specific I need, then im probably going to google the wrong thing
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] s3axel:
Sorry, misunderstood you there ;) Well, I have recently used the download from this site for my OP3, so I hope it just works out :)
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Ivalicenyan:
Thanks for the drivers,.

says installation failed on the oneplus after 2-3 minutes
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] s3axel:
Hmm, strange. Maybe you have a corrupt download ? Can you open the ZIP you downloaded in your first post with 7Zip or something alike ?

If the ZIP file seems fine (BTW, the one I downloaded has a MD5 checksum 0e2b4f9c7e7a1edf533f0d436ba48d95 - opens up OK for me but could not check flashing due to lack of OP3T :) ) it may help to follow along the instructions on factory resetting that can be found here. Just be careful, this is for OP3. #1 is already covered (given your downloaded ZIP is fine), #2 can be gotten from the link given in Post #2 in this thread.

Then you should hopefully have a clean basis to start from....

Cheers, Axel
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Ivalicenyan:
Got past step #5, it is recongnizing my serial is fastboot devices, but then I got to step #11
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] s3axel:
OK, so far so good [emoji6] what happens if you type "adb devices" after that?

Gesendet von meinem SM-G935F mit Tapatalk
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] s3axel:
It seems the daemon ist not running when first giving the command. As it should have started after the first command, what happens if you just repeat the "adb devices" for a second time?

Gesendet von meinem SM-G935F mit Tapatalk
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Ivalicenyan:
I get

list of devices attached

without the daemon stuff.

This is in fastboot BTW.

In recovery > adb sideload I get:

list of devices attached
3f743bc1 sideload

I went a step ahead and dried adb sideload ota.zip again, and I got the same "error protocol fault no status" in the 1st picture on page 2 without matt daemon stuff this time
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] s3axel:
Well, it looks as if in adb sideload mode at least your devices is detected correctly. So, given the ZIP-file is OK, you should be able to finally flash the OTA.

To get rid of this error, please Open task manager and search for adb.exe and right click > end process. Then retry with the adb sideload command, if the daemon error comes up again just retry with the same command.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Ivalicenyan:
And ive re-downloaded this zip multiple times
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Ivalicenyan:
Live support team bailed me out.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Ivalicenyan:
NEW ISSUE!

With everything fixed, I went on about my business as usual, and then I get a notification of an update. So I accept.

Update froze in recovery, now its bootlooped again. What do?
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] s3axel:
Just as an update to track solutions in order :)

In the meantime I was in the same boat in getting my new OP3T to working order. The above mentioned adb-error for me was solved by using/installing a later adb-version, which is e.g. available here.

WRT to your recent error - let me check, presently updating my OP3T to 3.5.3 via adb....

Reboot Your Mobile and Open the Applications.

You can find SuperSu in your application.

Download Root checker to Check your Device.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] karendar:
Seems fishy... Unless this is an exploit with older builds, there's no way that would work unless the bootloader is unlocked.

This would only work on H830 or H850... And even then, easier to flash twrp than use stock recovery.

If you really want to root an lg g5, I suggest you look around for an h850.

root lg g5 h831 7.0 Nougat? Canadian Fido mobile varient.

I have just got a brand new Canadian Fido Mobile LG G5 H831, Android version 7.0 Nougat. The recovery that comes with it is hard to get into and it doesn't include an option to backup/restore. I don't want to brick this phone on a 2 yr contract. I have experience unlocking bootloader and rooting on other phones but not my brand new one. I'm new to xda so I cannot post my own topic yet so I'm asking everywhere. Any advice is helpful. Thanks in advance.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] cheeze.keyk:
as of now root and bootloader unlock is not yet achieved on H831 Model.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] big bad brad 31:
That's a real shame.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] cheeze.keyk:
youre right. even other models doesn't have root and bootloader unlock. I dont know why LG is doing this kind of practice, while other brands allows BL unlocking of their device.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] big bad brad 31:
Well there are options on the phone to do (boot unlocking, etc,.) so but it may brick the device. I have all developer options available, usb debugging enabled, i was able to reboot recovery via adb but It's hard to get into and no option to backup/restore, so perhaps on the web elsewhere there will be an answer, or we'll just have to wait. Personally, I love the G5 because It's very high definition and pretty up to date. Let me know if anything comes up. Cheers. UPDATE, if I or anyone finds a way to root the G5 it will be posted here if the thread is still open.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] mmoroz:
Short version: could someone please recommend an RSS reader that

(1) shows a list clickable unread items in its Today screen plugin (not a scrolling line, but an actual proper list of items, like 10 lines or so)

(2) can auto-update the content (without me having to click anything manually)

Long version:

I was looking for an RSS reader that can show a long list of unread items on the Today screen, so that I can immediately see if anything is interesting, and click to read if I like. I have enough screen space, so I don't want to use a scrolling line.

I found only one reader so far that can show the item list -- Spb Insight. I can tell it how many items I want to see, so I'm very happy with this plugin. Unforunately, Spb Insight has one major shortcoming, which makes it unusable for me: it cannot auto-update the content. I actually have to start the software and tell it to refresh. Many people asked for the auto-update feature on Spb's forums, but it seems the Insight team stopped the development of this product (last update was in early 2007).

I then tried two other excellent readers: Egress and Newsreader. Egress unfortunately only shows a scrolling line on the Today screen, and cannot display a full list of items. Newsreader's plugin is simply worthless: it shows the number of unread items (like I care).

A6.time was a promising product, but the developer shut down last month.

PocketRSS has been abandoned as well, with the last update in June 2006.

Any help much appreciated.

Perhaps consider joining the Xiaomi Mi MIX community:

http://xdaforums.com/mi-mix

The band support is damn near 100% for your carrier:

http://willmyphonework.net/

Might wanna double-check if you're genuinely interested,the site Frequency Check has different info vs WillMyPhoneWork.

Bootloader unlocking is a breeze (mine came Bootloader Unlocked by the vendor,who installed the Global ROM w/Google,I've since TWRP'ed & installed the EU ROM,much better).

Hoping for CyanogenMod,but,in the meantime,this is nice,just gotta disable the CleanMaster/MIUI bloat (There's a S***LOAD of it,enough to even make Samsung blush,LOL) with TiBu or SD Maid & you'll be good to go.

Whichever device you decide to move to,hopefully it'll have some support from both the mfg & the development community. :good:
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] buongu:
ehm... i just don't get it, you chose this phone because it has some features right? and you looked at the specs table too, right? you knew, or at least i did, that there were a few things missing (rbg led for instance)... so why buying it?? it wasn't even a cheap choice, you could have made different choices, you could have gone for a s7 edge if you like big screens for instance, probably even cheaper right now.

auto brightness is there, it hasn't been removed, it's just bugged atm :) but it's a quite common issue with early releases of softwares, you often hear referring to it as a "lazy sensor"...

the phone you'd like to replace yours with is a totally different phone :/ it seems to have a hifi dac as well, but i couldn't find any real specifics about the chipset... is it as good as the one you're leaving? from the specs i could find on asus website i would guess probably good but not as good? anyway i don't see any mention about hifi dac's on your post, so i guess you don't/didn't care much for it..?

camera is supposed to be a downgrade from your v20... big time. no argue there.

support? asus is quite slow releasing software updates, MM arrived on zenfone2 models in late august/sept, with many many issues and bugs. so my question here would be: when is it ACTUALLY going to see nougat? and are you familiar with asus zenUI?? it's heavy...

so... are you sure you want to trade your v20 for THAT model? :) for that price??

if you're unsatisfied with your v20, and i can understand it to some extent, just be smarter with your next choice :)

in my experience phones sporting qualcomm SoC's tend to be supported for for a longer time, and faster. but if you tend to change your phone every 1.5 years you could easily go for a samsung too... and right now IMHO if hifi dac isn't your top priority s7 edge is probably the best choice. price, camera, battery, support. all the package. you have no budget issue, maybe pixel XL? it would have a qualcomm aqstic dac which isn't bad at all... same as htc10.

anyway, good luck with your choice :)
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] FreeLookMode:
Um... I don't post often. But, the phone has adaptive brightness. I'm using it right now.

Also, the phone is metal, not plastic. Did I subscribe to the wrong forum? V20 right?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] roosta:
Cool, prob just need to process the OTA update.

Of course I checked the specs. It ticked most boxes. Bigger battery was a huge plus, IR, FM radio, one of the best RAW manual shooting UI for the camera on the market (etc etc). But this isn't a LG v20 "this is why I love it" thread. There's obvious concessions that need to be made. I clearly underestimated the customisability of the 2nd screen. Even worse, some email notifications (such as new emails) that come through - if the screen is locked/off, the audible notifications don't come through. Perhaps a bug - but pretty average when you spend big dollars on it.

That's good to hear. LG are trying to push an OTA update, but I didn't want to apply it, JUST in case someone released a root method and it happens to been software-version-dependant.

HiFI DAC. The biggest marketing spin for a smart phone feature. I'm no audiophile...but I believe I can determine 'quality'. If using a good set of earphones/buds, I don't notice a tremendous amount of difference between this phone and others I've used. Far too much marketing spin was put into this. B&O branding, etc. LG's focus for this flagship is focused on the wrong areas. Instead, they could have focused on a speaker thats LOUD (hence 'loudspeaker'!). Its far too quiet...

I have no experience with MM personally, nor with ASUS so that information is somewhat helpful. I'm also not familiar with the UI...but I wasn't with the LG version either when I came from 5+ years of Samsung from G6 to the G4...and it was quite easy to get used to it, i doubt I'd have any problems or complaints with the UI based on the reviews I've reached and watched on youtube?

If i don't switch to a current phone in the market, I'm keeping an eye on the SGS8 by early-mid 2017. I was turned off the Samsung S6 and 7...their designs started turning int Apple iPhone clones - solid body, built in battery, either a 2nd SIM support (OR SD card, not both). lack of FM radio, no IR....I don't care much about the radio any more, but the deciding factory was a dual sim phone that supported B28 700Mhz. 5.5" phone is preferred, 5.7" the largest I'd probably go. I hate front-facing speakers which ae typically found on HTC's...they get filthy over time. Bad design if you ask me. DO these have boot unlocks and root? There's the big one...

Thanks for the suggestion. I checked the Xiaomi's latest release. No dual SIM support covering band 28 700Mhz. I must say, I am left baffled wondering why all bands are just left as active/achievable depdning on the country. There's NO reason NOT to have them all. I think their latest-release model only has a chinese ROM with support for other countries languages...rather than a global (or country specific) ROM. The dots for the menu/back touch buttons (which i know, are programmable) just looks wonky. Byut yes, the biggest thing it has going for it is bootloader unlock and root, which is huge.

Auto brightness is not bugged. Maybe it just works better on T-Mobile units?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] bishmaster5000:
I have a T-Mobile unit and while auto brightness doesn't work great, it's nowhere near as bad as OP suggests. I've never had troubles seeing it in direct sunlight.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] BROKEN1981:
In direct sunlight it goes to 100%. I'm not sure what issues people have. You can watch how it adjusts itself. Maybe people hate the speed? It does it by increments not all at once.

To be honest, I think the op is ranting for no good reason other then to rant.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] roosta:
Of course, I just do this for the attention.

As I said abovr, it's probably just an OTA update that is required on the H990DS to make it work as effectively as the other variants. I've done that now and can confirm it looks to be more responsive. If it's set to auto,

don't make any manual adjustments to the % bar... As regardless of the scene, if you lock and unlock the phone in different lighting situations it's only then it won't adjust.

Have you seen the Xiaomi mi Note 2 , there is an international version that is dual sim and supports band 28
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] roosta:
Looks like great specs. Problem there is I believe it might only be 2G capable on 2nd sim. In Australia, the big carrier 2G networks are turned off as of tomorrow at the time of writing this. 2nd sim must be able to support 3g voice calls with data working on the other sim (that doesn't require it to be dual active: dual standby can work but must use some of the newer chips that support the functionality, namely the new snapdragons)
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] 63holdenolden:
I'm in the same boat myself with the 2g network being switched off , I have not been able to find any info on the mi Note 2 confirming 3g on the second sim although i do belive the snapdragon 821 is capable of it

It would be good to get some local feedback

Thanks
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] roosta:
So you're saying, when main screen is off, i can still "customise" my 2nd screen? Go into settings of 'when main screen is off'. In my ROM, i can only choose from Sound profile, wifi, flashlight, bluetooth and capture. Nothing else. (In fact, check the same for 'when the screen is of'. Go to quick tools...there's 5 options. You could argue it's for security, certain stuff can only be accessed when the phone is properly unlocked. That should mean when the MAIN screen is on, you could theoretically pick the apps you want to appear on the 2nd screen, but you can't, Only 'recents'. Same thing for the upcoming events - screen only shows one event. You can;t scroll or view the next (eg if multiple in 1 day). I don't know why they've put so many ceilings and limits to the 2nd screen, it's far from useful

Yeah that's another strange one for me too. I typically only maintain 1/5 of 4G reception despite being in 4GX zone where I live. In the city it's never a problem, but where I am (Telstra) is pretty poor. That said, it's not much different to my G4
