[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luck_shawn:
Well Sh*t

I got all 3 of my daughters a kindle fire 7" 5th gen for Christmas. I ran thru the updates and was going to install the google framework and all that goes with it to be able to install works of ahhh painting app. However, I have hit a roadblock since it seems even tho I have enabled unknown sources and rebooted each device (all running 5.3.2.1) I can download apks but when I attempt to install them, it's like the install button just doesn't register touch response no matter what direction you rotate the device. I'm not new to this, I got kindles because of how easy it was to customize a previous one my 7 year old had, and besides, $30 each was a pretty good deal. So maybe it's a software glitch in the new update, maybe it's that I just don't care enough to dig into it but that's where it stands here.

Edit: A simple reboot after allowing unknown sources fixed the problem and I completed the installation of Google play store
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BossmanFU:
On mine I downloaded the four apks needed installed them (in proper order) using apk permission remover and it worked for me. There's a thread in the fourms I folllwed
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeebob:
I just used the kindle supertool to install the google framework and APK's. once click and leave it to its own devices - a tool by superjunky I think?

Anyway, as for the rotation, I havent noticed any particular problems with it, but I havent done a lot of work with testing it, I will try take a look a bit later!
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oilyrag:
i have the same problem. I managed to install Google Play but trying to side load the Popcorntime apk fails with the next and install button not registering touch input, cancel button works fine.
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DB126:
Have you enabled FireOS setting that allows installs from unknown sources and then rebooted device?
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oilyrag:
Thought I had rebooted device, done it again, now works. Many thanks
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Coods:
I bought two 7" fires on the Black Friday sale to use as home automation panels in the house (with SmartThings). I installed the Play Store but found the SmartThings app was still not compatible :(. But really I was waiting for the new ActionTiles (web client) to come out. The one Fire upgraded to 5.3.2.1 and I haven't opened the other yet. The Play Store will no longer launch on the 5.3.2.1 tablet either. My original thought was to probably flash a new rom that is not as restrictive but doesn't look like that will happen now. Have a few additional questions for the "can" and "can't" list with 5.3.2.1 please:

1) Can the lock screen be disabled/removed?

2) Can the device be woken up by screen touch?

3) Does the non-root Play Store hack still work? (maybe I just need to redo something after the upgrade?)

4) Are there any browsers I can have auto load the ActionTiles dashboard (web page) and always keep it up and full screen?

Thanks a lot!
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeebob:
1) not completely that I have found, unless you keep the screen alive 24/7.

2) power button only however root could allow this but 5.3.2.1 doesn't support (or should I say have a method for) root at this time.

3) yes it does, I have uploaded it to about 6 different kindle recently all running 5.3.2.1

4) again root would help, however you can use automateit free or pro from plastered. It's very powerful and you should be able to achieve a lot with it. If it doesn't support it though, tasker is another powerful tool which might be worth exploring
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DB126:
No hardware support for this capability regardless of root (re: touch to wake).
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeebob:
Thanks for confirming davey!
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Coods:
Thanks for the info guys, appreciate it! This helps me understand the direction I want to take with these as alarm panels
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeebob:
Is that a business venture you have there or a personal ambition? I'm interested to see how it will go?
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marsu42:
Edit/Delete: I read in the neighboring thread that downgrading 5.3.2.1 is impossible due to a new locked bootloader, thanks Amazon :-\ and let's hope for an updated Kingroot to get Flashfire working.
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DB126:
To date a handful of devices running 5.3.2.1 were reportedly hard bricked after attempted rollbacks to any prior version of FireOS. Recently one individual reported success in rolling back to 5.3.1 after receiving an OTA from 5.3.1 to 5.3.2.1. This seems an outlier but mentioning as a data point for consideration. Recognize the risk if you attempt a rollback; unrecoverable brick is likely.
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] canes8301:
Can the ads still be removed from 5.3.2.1?
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeebob:
I don't think so, I ran root junkys ad removal and it didn't seem to work, but perhaps I'm using an older tool...

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] m0d hipp¥:
I'm running into an odd issue with using fastboot. For some reason it's not detecting any devices.

I installed, and reinstalled all the drivers (and everything installs and displays correctly in Device Manager)

ADB works properly and displays my device

I have USB Debugging enabled in developer mode

I tried different USB-microusb cables (same thing)

I tried installing PDAnet --> no difference

I also tried downloading the SDK and running the platform tools from there. Once again ADB works fine, but fastboot is just <waiting for any device>

Any thoughts?

As a side note, have a SM-G930T phone. I was able to get TWRP on my phone before, and I'm trying to get it again and I can't seem to recall how I have done it. I do remember I unlocked the bootloader through a website, but I can't remember the steps. Perhaps someone can point me to the right direction. Of course, in order to unlock the bootloader I would need to get fastboot to work, so this is what I'm trying to take care of first.

There is a new OTA notification; any clue what it contains ?

Too late already installed; but the new version is: mmb29m.n910vvrs2cpl1
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] goofwear:
Are you saying after years of no updates they updated the note 2. I did a google search for mmb29m.n910vvrs2cpl1 and people on the note 4 said it was marshmallow. Is this also marshmallow for the note 2.

been on cyanogenmod for 4 years. I stopped following our phone
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jake21:
You know I screwed up and posted this in the wrong forum. It was an update to the Note 4 not the Note 2; and it was just a security update.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobileman88:
All along ADB was working fine. Now when I enabled it, nothing is detected on the computer. The phone went entirely missing. If I turn it off, the phone comes back. Anyone encountered this?

With ADB turned off

- Phone works in PTP Mode to PC

- Phone works in MTP Mode to PC

- Phone works in MIDI to PC

With ADB turned on

- No phone device detected at all. So I am not even able to change to any of the ADB drivers
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CyberZeus1977:
What do you mean by "ADB turned off" and "ADB turned on"?

Are you talking about USB Debug?

Sent from my interstellar 6P
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobileman88:
Yes, USB debug in development menu, even turning it on/off, revoke does not seem to make it work again. it just does not show up on my PC.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobileman88:
Further tests done.

Fastboot works.

Adb works in recovery mode when booted into TWRP 3.0.2-3.

Think I need a way to reset the ADB /usb debug settings within the phone as it looks more and more to be an issue from the phone rather than Windows (v7 x64 sp1)
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v12xke:
Not the way I read it. Sounds to me like the exact opposite.... a driver issue with your PC/OS, not the phone. In order for the phone to have adb/fastboot capabilities, the correct drivers need to be installed and actually working on the PC. Without going into detail, you could use a few different tools to REMOVE and install the correct PC drivers. Wug's NRT Toolkit has a very good step-by-step driver configuration guide with verification. I now just use the 15 second ADB installer here on XDA because it is minimalist, and just works. That being said, the NRT has a USB removal tool to rid your system of old USB entries that are likely causing your problem. Give it a whirl.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobileman88:
Shall give it a whirl. Previously it was incorrect driver issue years ago but everything has been working fine on all my Android devices till yesterday when I can't seem to ADB to my 6P. I have the latest USB drivers installed via Android SDK Manager.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobileman88:
Still no go. There's no device at all where I need to change/delete/update driver if I turn on ADB USB mode. Phone is only seen by Windows Device Manager when I turn off USB debugging in developer menu. I still feel it might well be something in the developer menu causing this issue.

I am checking on the folder /data/misc/adb . Permissions is rwxr-s--- . What's the permissions you have for this folder?

Using USBDeview (trying to compare between 2 sets of 6P, both with the December 7.1.1 roms)

6P that works over ADB

Reported VID and PID is 18d1 / 4ee2

6P that does not work over ADB

Reported VID and PID is 18d1 and PID is 4ee1, 4ee5 and 4ee8 depending on which mode (PTP/MTP/MIDI).

Nothing gets reported to be connected at all when I used USBDeview while the 6P that does not connect over ADB USB has USB debugging turned on.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobileman88:
Problem fixed. No idea what was the cause. Hopefully it will help someone else who gets this down the road.

Puzzling.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v12xke:
Glad you got it fixed.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobileman88:
Yeah, would have done a full factory reset if all else fails since the hardware was indeed able to connect to my PC properly. Glad the various flashing worked out.

Im planning to buy this smartphone by the end of January 2017, its the European version I think (Spain)... But Im afraid it would still bootloop as older G4 devices manufactured in previous months, so...

This problem has been fixed in newer devices?

I was thinking in buying the G5 but the price I have found for this smartphone is quite interesting.

Greetings, and happy new year :)

Hi ! I don't know at all.....but mine is a h815 sn 506 bought on the begining of November 2015 ....and never have had problem ! Work like a charm ....

(v20i MM + Llama kernel....and sometimes simpleGX )
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.FREE_Bird:
How many times is this gonna be asked? No one can tell you if it is fixed with "newer" G4 devices. Anyone who owns this device should have a backup device because you can't trust any G4... and even if its fixed, I still do not recommend this phone. It has many other problems which is in my opinion not worth to deal with. I regret buying this phone.

See my reddit post ---> https://www.reddit.com/r/lgg4/comments/5glnlt/bad_quality/?ref=share&ref_source=link

If you really want to go with LG, buy the G5, that phone isn't flawless but much more reliable than a ''newer" LG G4.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raptorddd:
it does but chances are very low accoridng to reports here.

try getting the one that can be unlocked. as not all h815 can be.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pistacho123Lol:
I'm Sorry if this question has bothered you, I just only wanted to know if this problem has been fixed or not.

Thanks for your reply.-
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pistacho123Lol:
Ok, do you know what model number is recommended?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pistacho123Lol:
Hello, you bought it in France?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.FREE_Bird:
Oh it didn't really bother me, I was more like: Another one wondering if newer versions of the LG G4 are bootloop free...

Well simply no one can tell you for sure, there are some reports of newer versions boot-looping, but that are only a few but still some..

If I was you I wouldn't go for a LG G4. Take the G5 instead if you really wan't a LG phone. That phone has less problems and has better hardware and will be more worth your money in my opinion.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pistacho123Lol:
Allright, thank you very much!

I'm sorry to hear ppls had problems with their G4 phones .

What I can say , speaking from a developer perspective , LG g4 is great , at least the one I have , I have a h815 European Unlocked , serial number starts with 6xx.

I just can tell you that i stressed this phone like no other phone before .

I always think how this little piece can take so much stress.

I'm a rom developer and I can say I i flashed and reflashed over 10 -15 times per day different roms.

I build Maru OS for this phone and I runned Debian inside it ,with a lot of app oopened and a lot of multimedia tasks , and tested a lot how apps works on it , even games.

I used it like a pc , using debian and I can tell you I stressed it a loooot .

What I can say is that is a good harware , I do not try to convice anyone to buy one and I do not want ppls to spend money on something that can easly brick . But told you , I was impressed how mine resists to stress. No problems in 4 months.

Have a great day all !

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] finbaar:
Are the LG repaired GPS bootlooping or are they fixed properly?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fluffbutt:
It's interesting to read all of these.

Some people report boot lops and overheating problems, others say "nothing happens at all".. and then others still refine it.

Example - the snapdragon 810 powered Xperia z3+ is "known" to have overheating problems... but then there have been reports that it only happens with intensive camera use - long 4K videos and camera overlay VR.

Gaming? no problems - you'd think that a game would stress the cpu/gpu a lot?

I;m NOT implying anyone is lying - I'm commenting on the variations of it all.

I have had my G4 for almost a year, mine is from the Feb 2016 batch. Never had serious issues with the device itself, sure the battery life is bad (since the last update) but hopefully this'll get fixed-we should get Nougat. The other issue I have had is very slow charging, I have tried nearly everything but couldn't figure out the cause. :confused:

Device takes forever to charge and runs out very quickly-worst combination possible. :p I have to use a fast charger.

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BoyBawang2:
After the Bootloop occured on my g4 last year (2016) the circuit-board was replaced with serial 606 around August 2016.

And now ladies and gentleman, as of February 11, 2017, its inevitable destiny has finally come. My g4 is starting to Bootloop again!! This sucks but its true! It can be that LG didn't produce a fixed motherboard at all but just used their defective stocks as a temporary fix that will still bootloop after sometime of usage. Damned you LG!!

Some interesting observations (Hoping this is just a battery problem):

1. Bootloop started to happen after few days of stressing the battery with VR games.

2. It either Bootloops or sometimes turns off without looping.

3. It boots normally if I plug it on a wall charger. But If I unplug it, it bootloops immediately.

What's your opinion guys? Because my g4 runs normally when plugged. Could this be just a battery problem or really bootloop?

Thanks for the help. -Jhor
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lukem99626:
If it works plugged in id suspect its something else bootloop was caused by the cpu plugging it in the wall doesnt fix that if you call lg and ask nicely they will probably send you a battery
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Minto107:
Your battery might be faulty man. If it would be a bootloop then your phone wouldn't charge at all. I have similar problem with battery. Yours most likely looses voltage or its too low to power up with bright screen and stress on cpu(during kernel load etc)
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BoyBawang2:
Thanks brothers but my g4 is out of warranty now. Do you confidently conclude that it's the battery? Because I'm preparing to buy right now. I tried it again while plugged in and run heavy 3d game and everything is perfect. When I unplug, it bootloops after like 3 seconds.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lukem99626:
I would be convinced its a battery issue try calling before you buy they gave me free stuff :p
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BoyBawang2:
While waiting for the Battery I ordered online (sadly takes more than 10 days as shipping here in Philippines is very strict with batteries) I have a Bad News. It now Bootloops even while being plugged on charger!

Some Observations (while fully charged 100%):

1. The Booting is still able to reach the homescreen and show it for 1 second then loops again.

2. One time I caught a popup during the 1 second homescreen telling like "Battery Empty shutting down".

3. But while turned off and plugged it shows "Battery Full"

Can it be that the defective battery is interfering the boot process? What's your opinion guys?

Thanks for the help -Jhor
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demoncamber:
I've had mine since 2015 and haven't had a single bootloop
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShinOrochiX:
To anyone having issues with their G4, if your still covered by the warranty then just send the device back. I have been having charging issues so I have sent it for repairs, I don't know when I will get it back and it is hard having to use a 2011 device in the meantime but at least I won't have to shed money over a new battery/charger or whatever. Warranty repairs are free as long as you haven't damaged the device yourself.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bartbla:
I have something similar with my G4, it boots normal when connected to the charger..

When not connected it will boot, but has no reception (service disabled) and the notification light is showing green continuously, the internal storage is also not usable when connected to a computer..

Because of this I changed the battery, but the new battery does not change anything.

I have had this since June 2016 and was expecting the phone to die on me (already bought a spare phone) , but it still works today as long as I boot it while connected to the charger.
