[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Zub236:
I've been very pleased of the hardware of the phone, but the lack of software support is on the verge of me never getting another zte phone again. Wi-Fi calling, which was promised before the phone was released (which was the main reason I convinced my wife we needed new phones) still hasn't come. This is a huge issue to me, and zte has not commented on it for a while now. Very disappointing. They've definitely been dragging their feet on a lot of stuff.

Before we got these phones, we had the moto x pure edition. Great phone in terms of software, and hardware was pretty good for the time. All it was lacking for me to love it was wifi calling. Software updates were a lot slower than I had imagined they would be as well, but overall pretty good.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] alom5:
Yep. The software side of it stinks and is the only thing that lets this phone down. They really need to invest in giving a much better user experience. The phone rocks but the user experience sucks. They should try and stick to android and expand on features instead of trying copy ifeatures like a lot of phone manufacturers are trying to do.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] azpatterson3:
Hate to beat a dead horse, but I am going to anyway. Daydream was a big selling point for me. Still waiting for that. Also, future official cyanogenmod support for those who choose to go that route. I'm really rethinking my decision. If ZTE doesn't do an about face soon on pushing out updates and fulfilling the features they advertised, I won't be buying another ZTE in the future.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] kgptzac:
I don't know any informed buying would expect ZTE release Nougat update sooner than OnePlus, for obvious reasons. Also the title of the thread implies there's a date for Axon 7's Nougat release... which is not the case.

So yeah, I'm thoroughly disappointed.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] senaferdy79:
First of all, im not very new on android things, but the various type and hardware on kenzo a little bit confuse me.

Okay, i have a 2GB version of kenzo, running MIUI Global stable 8.0.6.0, i want to know if the procedure that i would like to do is right.

1. Unlocking my bootloader (still waiting for the approval)

2. Installing twrp.

Nah for the no 2, do i have to do any additional things or i just reboot it right away after installing twrp? (Im not interested on rooting because i dont need it atm).

3. Flashing the mandatory fw, cm14, and the gapps.

Can i actually flash them all on my current miui version? Or do i have to be on developer or something of a kind?

Thanks for your replies.

It means a lot to me, really.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] PiyushA01:
If you don't want to root, then don't flash SuperSU.

And for installing the ROM, first flash the developer ROM.

Download the developer ROM. Go the Updates > Choose Update Package > Choose the Developer ROM and install it.

Then,

Install twrp.

Transfer the CM14 Firmware, ROM, GApps to your Internal Storage.

Reboot to recovery.

Backup your current ROM. (Select everything)

Go to wipe > advanced wipe > choose everything except internal storage and microSD card.

Go to install > flash firmware > then ROM > then GApps.

Reboot

It is preferred to install Developer ROM and install Pico GApps if you want the VoLTE access. If you don't want, then no need.

Install the customised twrp for Redmi Note 3 since it helps to install OTA updates when using MIUI ROMs.

Hit thanks if it helped. :)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Oscilator:
wtf begging for likes? :p

what does pico gapps have to do with VoLTE?!

its not even needes to be on dev rom, its just recommended to use 6.11.24+ firmware for CM14 thats why... I usually just flash eu rom,epicrom,multirom,miuipro whichever of these, because they never relock BL.

After unlocking the bootloader, install Alka recovery and back up all the partitions before doing anything. Copy the back up to a safe place , you will need it for whenever you mess up.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] senaferdy79:
Whats distinguishes alka with the official twrp?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] senaferdy79:
Im kinda new with this topic, but what rom thats usually cause the relocking issue?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] harishmenace:
With official recovery you have to flash modified boot.img while flashing MIUI rom, with alka you don't have to. Also alka backs up all the partitions, so you don't have to worry about lost imei or bootloader relocking or any other problem. Just restore the backup and you will be right back from where you started.

Also go through these threads while waiting for your unlock permisssion

only switching from LP to MM or vice versa locks bootloader and flashing fastboot rom via edl does that too. some roms also lock it...

Same here. I too bought a 16gb version. But confused why I need to flash any developer ROM.

Can't I simply flash twrp after unlocking the bootloader officially and then flash any ROM from twrp(while on the MIUI GLOBAL 8.0.6.0 version)??

Any help would be appreciated

Sorry for the intreruption but i also have a question. I was on MIUI 8.0.6.0, after that I wiped and flashed appropriate firmware for CM then CM13 then Gapps. What whould one do if he theoretically want to rollback to miui, is it ok to flash latest miui stable rom on top of cm firmware? I miss too much the camera app which had great slo mo and timelapse features. Im also thinking of updating to CM14, dont know yet...seems buggy. Thanks
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] deepjyoti30:
You can always flash the rom image with the flash tool(that works 100 percent). If you want to flash it from recovery than i think you need to flash lazy flasher after flashing the ROM. Give it a try.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] planb234:
I'm looking for the PIT files for Sprint's Note 4. Or does anyone know if the PIT for SM-N910F will work. Is the (F) version compatible in all of the Sprint versions. I.E. when looking for Sprint programs there is no SM-N910(P) but always a SM-N910(F). Is it safe to use the F version? Or is there a safe way to update/redo the bootloaders? I flashed some bad files with Odin right around the BOB7 udate and my device has been spinning in circles around that since. Even if I go full stock and Odin the latest firmware my device is set back to that period from a protected file that is in between bootloaders. I can't touch it. The closest I can get is with a terminal command from TWRP [/sbin/recovery] I can then chmod the files and erase or do whatever with them but they are restored in cold boot. Even after flashing the official firmware it reverts to the files from BOB7. What's really crazy is I'm running stock firmware so can not use xposed but if I mount data and system wipe and then run uberwipe my device will boot with xposed apps functional. It is as if I am running two ROMS one that can not be removed or changed. I can see it happening but not from where exactly. In cold boot it loads the RO biuld from /dev/block/platforms/msm_scc1.by_name/hidden. I can find everything but the hidden. In the stock recovery logs it says the command to fix it is wipe_data_crypto but I can't accomplish it. Any suggestions?

PIT for Sprint Note 4 is here:

http://www.sammobile.com/forum/showthread.php?p=137840 No links are permitted by the developer; please respect that.

Not experiencing what you have and not attempting to fix what isn't broken, can't say what works but from what you describe, it sounds like you may have attempted to flash an older bootloader which isn't advised.

You may consider it's risky to try to undo that but first verify your reactivation lock is disabled. If your eMMC is OK, it might be OK to try to Odin PIT with repartition and nand erase all with an acceptable tar OG5 or higher loaded in AP slot. Always use PIT for repartition but only use if needed. And use at your own risk.

No guarantee but consider the risk and IF you have an issue with boot after Odin, you may need to factory reset in stock recovery and try the stock tar again (it's important to try that first without panicking). Always power down and pull battery before flashing stock tar. Also make sure you have ample battery charge. These days, 80% is recommended because there's a lot of weak batteries out there. Consider a new battery if older than 12 months or requiring frequent charging or phone shuts down before 0%. (I don't recommend full discharge, just that some batteries start shutting down around 20% when going bad. It only gets worse after that.)

Yes I'm getting ready to flash bootloaders big AF. I will two the pit files first but if that doesn't work I've got a list. Involves downgrading to kit kat, rooting with auoto root (can't screw me thrice) running triangle away to lose the warranty bit, installing xposed and wanam so as to make it read official. Once samsungs stuff isn't all a scared anymore I delete the /dev/block/platform/msm1_byname/hidden/rape the dumbass that used to trust developers he didn't know until he knew better and the rape was done.

I'm not really looking to flash boot loaders per say. I realized that you can only install a newer version and I TiVo I'm out of updates if I need a new bootloader. Just went to erase the obtrusive piece of poo hidden in between the 2 bootloaders. I'm not even sure theres supposed to be 2 bootladers. I look at samsuny stock firmware it's nothing like the billithera of extra stuff I have on my device. Can't say for sure who caused it because I did some retarded stuff when I was even greener than I am now. But whether it be auto root or srs unlock that super su is obtrusive as it gets. The purpose of root was flee me the user to gain access tip everything. The whole limiting the user and granting permission to every creepy fook on this planet to stock me and my kids is not what I had in mind. These people are so adamant about their creepy stalking not only is my devices esp network cut by 90% they do dangerous stuff like hidden robuilds that has a value of 1 where the radio don't shut off I airplane mode.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] planb234:
I appreciate the advice. I hope to avoid allot with the PIT. That's what flashfire back up says it needs. Shutting the phone of is a good idea. The recovery log was actually making fun of me for not. Along with the simple command I needed to open /sbin/recovery then wipe cane and data crypto. The /sbin/recovery was an eye opener (try it from the emulator in twrp to see if root has crippled you. The thing is most of us use a universal supersu update to reinstall and that is not good. That is written to take out the marines if that's what it takes to accomplish root. Remember the food old days when superuser binary was a line compatible with your cu?

Anyways another good command people don't know is if odin fails don't pull the battery. I put am s4 tip sleep forever that way. volumedwn home and power reatart the bootloader and wipe the cache for the software out is rejecting.

You may have discovered this thread. I haven't had the issue or tried fixing one bricked but marked this thread because of all the theories, examples and links, it seemed a place to start for answers but I couldn't know without experiencing an issue, myself. What works? Don't know.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=63848150&postcount=1

It's probably a starting point but nothing new if you've devoted time with success in finding methods to try. It suggests also it could be the eMMC failing which is all too common for Note 4. Either way, if it's just bricked, maybe you recover it. If it's component failure, main board replacement should fix it. Main boards can be found on eBay and Amazon but I think they're all used or remanufactured boards. Samsung repair may be an alternative if you're not to inconvenienced by waiting. Just recently, I got a quote from my local uBreakItIfixIt and the guy said it's not a fixed estimate store to store but he'd only charge $10 to replace a main board in store.

Best wishes for timely procedure or economical repair.

I never could find the files. The link was valid, samep, it just refused to let me have them. It turns out it is easier to get them off your own device and I've zero doubt they are for the 32gb Sprint Note 4. At least mine anyways. I tried the down grade to kitkat which would have worked because it downgrades you boatloader at least according to the page. I got a failed md5. So it wouldn't supirise me if these pit files are different than what the stock one was. Hard to tell what you have, for sure, when you are a flash junk that trusts random people on the inter web. At least I was/did. I gave myself this when it was brand new. It was hard to get it going again. I back up worked with plasma kernel then on the next official it was right again, well almost, I've had this problem almost two years now. I went without root for a while so didn't notice.

Did you fix it? Your right totally worth it for the screen. You can unlock the imei. I only did it once just because some people are so adamant you can't. I like to believe anything is possible. I don't feel bad about getting those non paid because the phone companies are the thieves. Especially in the US. They bury a lot of people locking you down to have a phone and the policy on being to stupid to fix anything is raw. With two kids I paid out a lot of dead phones. It takes rooting one phone to have bested the entire knowledge of tech at sprint. That's the hard part. If they sold parts it would be nothing.

There's a couple of ways to calibrate the battery. the easiest is a root app in Play "Battery Calibrator" it resets the stats at 100% Another is *#0228# I believe you calibrate it then let it run all the way dry then charge it to full with the system off. Not too hard to find if you want to give it a shot. It's hard to say what the problem is. I just got a new one because the old was dying at 30%. I use both and they take turns on which one is weak. Neither is a problem with out root. I probably have too much working Or to much stuff in the background.

I've heard that about changing the sticker. i only change the sticker if I used another phone for the screen. It matches what is in the board that way, If you take it in the store to get it activated they may be a little less confused.

I took an S4 that was compiled of 3 previous ones and my daughters that just stoppede working to get activated at sprint. Of course he couldn't. His story the same "When you work on them .. . He was pretty adamant that as it. I couldn't figure out how that affected both of them. So i took it home and activated it myself. Turns out the S4 is a dual band so he generally has a 50% succes rate it will turn on in the mode.

The sticker definitly won't get it activated. I've got an LG3 that was given to me by some who did't care about sprint anymoe that was Imei locked out activated. It was $100 bucks for the server. The server was. It unlocked a s5 also that a jerk sold me was clean. It unlocked it too. It was through verizon so i never activated it. I was trying to flop it to sprint when it disappeard .I unloced my note 4 with it to. The SIM so the APNs aere never locked altough I'm not positve it could have been GTidonetehapp that did it. I did' know what I ws doing, I just like plaing with them. No real reason to unlock a phone you own. Well ther is the hotspot. I'm pretty sure that's how I crumbed up my note and my puter to. I dropped exec files in my win 32 folder and flashed in something with a crazy odin to get my phone unlocked. But again not positive, thier stuff workied so it was just to give my equiment herepes.

I do believe you have to sign into Sammobile to download files.

The PIT can also be found in the first stock tar for each OS update; the developer I linked says that the PIT hasn't changed. I've seen methods to extract PIT from phone but they don't match md5 when checked. I checked your linked PIT in the post above and it doesn't match either. I wouldn't recommend using that one.

If your phone has ever updated beyond OB7, you can't Odin full stock KitKat tars or OB7 stock tar. The bootloader will block the Odin flash.

Not looking at your phone, it's hard to say what's going on. But I hope the feedback helps. Ask if you have further questions; I'll try to reply, but I haven't experienced what you've having issues with. Best wishes for resolution.
