$4.50 for a silicon case? Well, I suppose even if the case is poor quality, you won’t greatly out of pocket.

That picture on ebay is pretty bad. I can hardly distinguish the silicon case from the device itself

This case is already being discussed on this thread here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=352605

And towards the last couple of pages, it is briefly discussed here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=336542&page=23

Yes, I do think it is one of the best. It looks like it offers more than adequate protection without compromising its lightness in weight. I will look to order this particular case next week when shipping begins (according to one of the members)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] tariq_niazi:
My last question about the Seidio case is that is it a snap on case? I have bought a case previously for HTC Wizard and the little plastic things that are supposed to the cover on the phone broke.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] 246810:
I don't know what you mean by snap on case. Remember that the case is rubber and not plastic.

Perhaps if you refer to the thread below, you may find answers to your questions:

Try this one!

Don't know if you're dead set on a silicone case for your phone but i personally went for a crystal hard case as the silicone cases don't really work too well with these phones as there is an open end on them in order for the keyboard to slide, plus i couldn't really find one that i liked the look of.

So i got one of these from this seller in Hong Kong... arrived in 4 days and the quality is excellent!

Have dropped it once and there was no damage to the case or phone. Even came with a screen protector too!

Crystal Case Kaiser
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] nicholasendean:
DITO

I too bought one of the crystal hard two piece case for my Kaiser. I was a little iffy when I got it out the packaging at first but it is now top of my eBay best ever purchases list.

Item

Crystal Case+Screen Protecter for HTC TyTN II/2/P4550

http://stores.ebay.co.uk/AccessoriesShopHK

:)

It not only creates a plastic protective environment for the phone that is not in the least intrusive to every day use, but without wishing to sound in the least vain, it makes the phone look utterly gorgeous and yummy. I have had many comments since using my Kaiser in public, but over the last few days several people where I hang out have wondered what the hell phone I was using to type on.

Point is...GET this item if you want to protect your phone and at the same time enhance its looks.

I bought that silicone case you linked to and let me tell you that thing is horrible. The fitment is all loose and it basically falls off.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] tariq_niazi:
Which silicone case are you referring to so that I can avoid it also?

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] vanydotk:
the one on ebay from that hong kong seller.. the one that only covers the back and not the front

yep bought one of those crystal case+screen protector from ebay as well. Just arrived today and I am already loving the case. It looks great.

[Lava Pixel V1] Dark❶:
Reasons for this Tutorial.

Why I Did this Tutorial?

I did this tutorial for New-Bee's like ME.

as I wanted to take a backup of Stock Recovery before flashing TWRP.

BUT did not found a way.

I had also made a Thread for Help,(Which can be found HERE)

BUT Ended UP Gobbling Stock Recovery Over TWRP.

I Did Not want Others to DO the Same, especially the NOOB's.

AND Hence this Tutorial.

How I came across this Method?

I had messed up my System partition and then to fix it I had to use SP Flash Tool.

In SP Flash Tool, I found Readback option & then went on a Ride with GooGle.

GooGle is my Good Friend, U know, It Mostly solves Most of my Problems.

I found this method for Other or Similar phones.

But it was complicated & Terrifying & Scary.

So I took a leap of Faith & tried this method.

It looked Scary but it was simple & Not Harmful(Unless U DO something Stupid).

And So, I made this Tutorial as Simple as Possible.

For Experts OR Advance Users, I know that you may already know this Methods.

But New-Bee's Like Me are New to this Kind of World & Need Some HELP.

And Since I learned This Method By MySelf, I shared it With Others.

If not, unlock it again with your code via fastboot.
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] theAuxify:
Yea, the bootloader should be unlocked, when i boot up the device it says that it has been unlocked ;P

Does it say "Unlocked" in bootloader mode?

Yea, says :

And if i use the command adb devices in fastboot mode no devices appear at all*D:

[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] Schlengge:
It sounds like your SD card is not working because of reasons...

Try flashing TWRP from this thread (http://xdaforums.com/huawei-p9lite/how-to/guide-unlock-bootloader-twrp-root-t3405701) with fastboot. Take the recovery image out of the extracted SRKTool Huawei.

Name should be twrpp9mm.img

Report back if you are able to access recovery again. From there you should be able to recover.

Afaik it is not possible to just reflash EMUI 4 after having updated to the Beta of EMUI 5. Once you have a recovery going, try to follow the exact steps of downgrading that are here on the forums.
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] theAuxify:
After installing this recovery the phone is stuck at Your device is booting now... screen when entering recovery mode D:
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] Schlengge:
So no recovery is working?

Have you tried flashing Meticulus TWRP or the Nougat Revolution Recovery?

One of these has to work... It also helps you to find out where your phone is stuck. If only Nougat Recovery works, your rollback from N has not worked. That would explain why you cannot launch any Marshmellow based recoveries.
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] theAuxify:
Yeah.*I can boot into recovery N B9 but when i try to flash/wipe/do anything it says cant mount /vendor /product /version
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] Schlengge:
Hmm okay that's a problem...

I don't really see what to do next honestly. Somehow we need to get fastboot flash working.

Have you tried to get back to a working Nougat build?

So flash BadWolf's Revolution N ROM in TWRP or via fastboot (since TWRP does not seem to work).
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] theAuxify:
Can`t do anything,*even wipe.

I think this is more like a physical than a logical issue. Most Samsung devices are crap, especially their batteries. Like most people, my Galaxy Win Duos started consuming much more power after some months. This is due to poor manufacturing process, not a direct issue in the kernel or the OS. But of course, there are a couple of tweaks to save power on every Linux device. You could use the powersave governor, set laptop mode to 2 and use the NOOP scheduler.

su
echo powersave > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
echo powersave > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_governor
(This reduces I/O activity) echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/laptop_mode
echo noop > /sys/block/mmcblk0/queue/scheduler
(If using a SD card) echo noop > /sys/block/mmcblk1/queue/scheduler

I'm not new into programming but kernel development. I will eventually learn about it.

I don't recall mine rebooting or having boot issues. But this ROM made my device heat a lot. Also, note that camcorder, bluetooth, mobile network search and Chrome downloads won't work on this ROM.

EDIT: Actually, Chrome downloads do work. To get Chrome downloads working (and apps which require personal data access), go to Settings > Apps, tap your app, select Permissions, enable Storage permission and restart your app (force stop).
[Samsung Galaxy Grand Quattro] Krush206:
I've fixed the boot animation for this ROM and installed a bootloader from a first revision device. I thought the black screen issue on second revision devices was due to bootloader code so I installed (with shell commands) a bootloader from a first revision device. Unfortunately, it didn't work out as expected (though I only tried to boot a recovery image incompatible with second revision devices). The black screen issue is still present. I must also note that not all bootloaders from first revision devices will work out as expected on second revision devices. Be careful, they'll also show the black screen issue and you won't be able to install the original bootloader back with Odin because it'll believe your device's model is the one from which the image should be installed on. Though I haven't tried, it's merely a theory, it's good to note that, when you change the bootloader, you're able to install, without signature check failures, a original firmware with Odin for another device model, which is the upside of changing the bootloader. Other than that, I can't think of and didn't notice any other upside for changing the bootloader since I didn't have the time to check the system at all.

To change the bootloader it's required to have TWRP installed since I don't know if the device will still be able to boot if you install a bootloader with black screen issue. However, when I've installed such bootloader Odin still did recognize the device.

Download the file below, boot into TWRP, plug the device to the computer and use ADB to input the following commands to install the compatible bootloader.

adb push bootloader_rev1.zip .
adb shell cat dev/block/mmcblk0p1 > qcsblhd_cfgdata.mbn.bak
adb shell cat dev/block/mmcblk0p2 > qcsbl.mbn.bak
adb shell cat dev/block/mmcblk0p5 > oemsbl.bak
adb shell cat dev/block/mmcblk0p6 > appsbl.bak
adb shell "unzip -p bootloader_rev1.zip qcsblhd_cfgdata.mbn > dev/block/mmcblk0p1"
adb shell "unzip -p bootloader_rev1.zip qcsbl.mbn > dev/block/mmcblk0p2"
adb shell "unzip -p bootloader_rev1.zip oemsbl > dev/block/mmcblk0p5"
adb shell "unzip -p bootloader_rev1.zip appsbl > dev/block/mmcblk0p6"

This bootloader is from a first revision device model but should work with most devices from both revisions.

Bootloader for first and second revision devices.

To check if the bootloader has been successfully installed, boot into Odin mode and check the version label. It should be labeled as I8552XXANF1.

Download the file below and input the following commands to install the fixed boot animation.

adb push bootanimation.zip system/media/
adb shell chmod 0644 system/media/bootanimation.zip

Fixed boot animation.

I've also compiled the latest kernel update from GitHub which includes minor changes. Download the file below and input the following commands to install the new kernel image.

adb push boot_update.zip .
adb shell "unzip -p boot_update.zip > dev/block/mmcblk0p8"

Kernel update.
