[General Questions and Answers] felyduw:
Hello all,

I got a new Xiaomi Mi5 128GB and everything was working fine and dandy.

Unlocked, installed TWRP, and after installing CM 14 first and CM 13 after, I am not able to connect to any wifi network.

I have tested with 2.4 and 5 GHz networks with and without security.

After that, I did a factory reset, restored my nandroid backup and to my surprise I completely lost the ability to connect to wifi networks even after restoring my previous - working - installation.

I am running out of ideas. Does anyone have any suggestions?

In this pastebin /D3TxtqLn - using CM 13 - I have tried to connect to two networks SweetM is 5GHz with WPA, MEO-WIFI is 2.4 GHz open.

Thanks in advance and sorry about the xda limitation on new users for the pastebin link.
[General Questions and Answers] gurinbone:
this is how to fix it.

1. install minimal adb in your pc.

2. flash miui rom. go to setting, about phone, repeat tap on miui version until you get developer option enabled.

3. go to developer option, enable usb debug

4. plug the usb cable to your pc, grant permission for usb debug in mi5.

5. open minimal adb cmd and type this one by one per line:

adb devices

adb shell

su

cd /persist/

mv wlan_bt wlan_bt_bak

mv wlan_mac.bin wlan_mac.bak

done, do factory reset from setting-backup&reset. that will solved it in miui. i still try to find a way to make wifi works on cyanogen.. not every mi5 got this problem.
[General Questions and Answers] felyduw:
Thanks! Somewhat disappointing that it doesn't work on cyanogen but this at least makes the phone usable again!
[General Questions and Answers] gurinbone:
found it. this is how to make wifi work on cyanogen/aosp

rename

system/etc/firmware/wlan/qca_cld/wlan_mac.bin

to wlan_mac.bin.bak

delete all folder & files inside:

data/misc/wifi

reboot, and done. :cool:
[General Questions and Answers] bg.ninh:
My savior.

Thank god I found this thread, thank you thank you thank YOU. I thought this was untreatable so I exchanged my last Mi 5 into this new one which also ran into the similar problem. :victory:
[General Questions and Answers] Maldinium:
The same problem on Mi 5S after installing PE11 Plus:

1. Get root (Magisk, for example)

2. Install app "Change my MAC" and change your WLAN mac-address on the default. In my case i was find this address in the my home router logs.

After this my phone immediately was connected to Wi-Fi.
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] lythanhlong:
Seeing as how XZ is the new 2016 flagship. Is it worth upgrading? Specs wise, it isn't really worth. Just better front facing camera, rear camera and a better processor from what I saw unless I missed something. But design wise, I really like it. Supposedly some of the 2017 Xperia leaks I've seen sport the exact design from the XZ. Should I upgrade or wait out until the end of the year for their high end device?
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] Allek84:
I have Z5 regular and I have same speculations.The camera is better cause has full manual mode,but picture quality?I am afraid that isnt much better than Z5.

It left only chipset,design and maybe longer battery hold.

I am not smart what to do...
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] angelanh:
I prefer old design cuz it's more scratch resist than new material. I think u should stay tuned with news, see what if the 2017 devices could be more or not then decide, it's just a month ahead. BTW, XZ price is still not down in VN Store yet.
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] deepershades:
As nougat takes up approximately 50% of the XZ's memory which can't be rooted without unlocking the bootloader, I'd suggesting holding back for three months to see what is released generally. Developer support and third party accessory support are limited for this model, and you'll have difficulty finding a decent case or tempered glass that bonds fully to the curved edge. Double tap to wake remains an issue, and charging is weak and actually depletes if you're using the phone at the same time, as a wireless hotspot for example. It's a stunning phone, but there are issues......

Need help :(

I love Sony !

But since Xperia z5 and didn't see Sony do any big hit now with XZ I loved it but afraid buying it and get disappointed!

Since Z5 went to s7 edge but didn't like it so I went to iPhone 6S plus and didn't like it now I'm with Moto Z but not satisfied!

Thought of HTC 10

But for once Wana believe XZ is worth buying !!!

Any help plz !!
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] angelanh:
What make you disappointed in Z5 and why you didn't satisfy with Moto Z? :confused:

Make it clear why so others can help to tell in your place.
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] one-option:
The Xperia XZ is a good smartphone, most important thing is the stable & close to stock Android Sony UI, with fast OS updates.

I have used so many smartphones, but Sony is really one of the best.
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] fgar82:
Well had black z5 and left it in my back pocket and when I went to my car forgot about it and when I sat I heard a crack and when I noticed it was the phone took it it was all broken with little bent in the middle !! Bought then white one and left it on the table and when I got a call it moved till felt down and broke down !

So bought z5 premium with the thought of Netflix 4k and youtube 4k but nothing screen brightness under sun was bad and camera wasn't all what I expected !!!

So went to Samsung s7 and hate all the junk and so many options that mostly u never use it and from time to time it get some slow done for a sec !

The only thing I loved about it the camera was great !

So went to moto z and only thing hate it after buying it putting it side by side with iPhone HTC and Samsung it was ugly and looks like a 200$ phone , I know there is no perfect phone I love Sony phones so think buying the Xz but reviews didnt help camera sucks as they say it's not perfect in anything screen still FHD like Sony is Stuck in time !!! It looks like Z5 with a better design and new processor . So what I was wondering is it really worth buying it
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] djgigi94:
Xz is really better than z5 premium.Better speed,battery life,screen quality, camera quality (not only for manual comands ,quaity is also really better on auto. Every shoots are fantastic and night shoots are on different planet compared to z5 series...really fantastic). Z5 premium have updates i think only with nougat 7.0 and 7.1.1. Xz also android 8 and 9 i think. In the end of the year z5 premium probably leave the official support and there you should buy the new xperia ;) z5 premium is a fantastic phone. Xz is really better. But at end 2017 Sony announce his powerful flagship. ;) and it will be a really better phone than xz
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] fgar82:
Don't know if I can add a YouTube link

But this is what bother me every review I see is negative I don't know if the phone is that bad or the reviews just want to make it show bad !

[youtube]sQa0Na0NveE[/youtube]

Here in Brasil it's not on shelves yet only sold online so there is no way to test it yet ! And it's not cheep at all it's around 1050$

So I need a light from ppl here in the XDA

Thanks for all support
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] maidguitar:
Sony is about to announce new phones at MWC on February 27...I'd wait.

edit: Not to say the XZ isn't great, I love mine. Just saying though, new phones in a month. Might be worth waiting to see what they announce.
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] one-option:
I have the XZ, it is good phone with best quality screen under direct sun, yes the Samsung S7 edge camera is much better, but in the end it is a smartphone not a camera & with playing with manual mode you can get better result from XZ.

before the XZ I used the HTC 10 which it does have QHD screen !

but if you compare the HTC 10 QHD screen with the FHD Xperia XZ screen in normal indoor light or under direct sun the winner will be for sure the Xperia XZ.

XZ screen is so bright and clear indoor and under direct sun even with polarized sun glasses where you will suffer with other smartphones, but with the XZ it is really a hero.

any one can try that, I felt disappointed from using HTC 10 SPECIALLY UNDER DIRECT SUN with polarized sun glasses, so I decided to get Sony Xperia XZ.

all in all XZ is a good smartphone with good battery life & screen quality, plus the most cool thing I like it about the XZ is the Qnovo charging thing where the battery can learn from your daily charging timing, so this Qnovo thing will stop over charging battery if for example you charge your smartphone over night.

If you are a Sony guy get the XZ, it is such a cool smartphone.
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] angelanh:
So far, i didn't try Z5 Premium but did use Z1 and tried Z3 of my friend. By stats, Z5 Pre and XZ are just the same. By design, the new material is nice, beautiful, mostly symmetry, more than Z5 Pre, even few time i confused then hold it upside down. But It did not bring the good feeling and high grade feeling (both by viewing and holding) like Z lines, also less scratch resistant. Also in review, its back is easy to be destroy by hard metal.

For gaming, and perhaps clip playing too if you hold XZ, the border is not much rounded, make it feed bad for your hand's palm after playing game for a long time. Battery is not so good, fixed much by Nougat update, but still. The reduced resolution didn't make it better, but I don't like larger resolution either, my I cant' see much differences.

For broken and bend problems, I didn't drop my XZ so i can't tell, but my old Z1 drop many times without any problems, just scratch appear in every corner after times. Then how could your old phone became broken so easily?

At all, I'm a little reget that I should try Z5 Pre before buying XZ, that's it.

---------- Post added at 03:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:16 PM ----------

Also, I must tell that I hate Moto Z or any phone with camera Bulging, so ugly for me when it's not summetry. Save the thin of other's palace to be thinner but not the camera area :silly:.
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] djgigi94:
S7 better camera automatic than xz? I don't think so...look this comparison https://photos.google.com/share/AF1...?key=anhLR3pzMFR2OVI1bnhkOFJWMUwtX2Z5S2R6M2ZB .

And i try so much s7 camera.On his screen ,fantastic photos wow! On other screens...duh... His amoled false the real photo quality of this phone. I think other phones do better, not only xz.

Well bought the Xz black and and......

I can say I'm amazed and loving the phone better than Z5 premium lighter looks slim while I was afraid cos looking at the picture it seemed thick!

Glad I'm back to Sony and I really hope they amaze us over the year!

Bought blue for my sis and even my brother with S7 edge was impressed with the phone.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rcoliveirajr:
My old Nexus 5X has already died with the bootloop issue, now I don't want to my Nexus 6P to die too..

Should I downgrade it to marshmallow?

I know that most people are claiming this as an hardware issue, but I actually don't believe on it, since both 5X and 6P with two completely different brands are getting the same problem, at the same time.

I'm also thinking of moving to CyanogenMod 14.1 (Not sure if anything changes..)

Curently I'm on Stock 7.1.1 NMF26F + FLASH-N6P Kernel
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v12xke:
No! Suit yourself, but I would simply upgrade to N4F26I and enjoy your phone. There is nothing wrong with running stock and you have a good kernel. Viva! SaÃºde!
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CyberpodS2:
Until it boot loops like so many of us have had happen. If you are in warranty, the company is swapping them out with little aggravation. If you are not in warranty then maybe you have a good point. I for one will be running RR 6.0.1 until some real info comes out. Once was enough for me.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhs39:
You realize that CyanogenMod is dead and that there will be no further development? People have been having the boot loop problems with custom ROMs as well as stock. Mine bootloops every time I flash updates, switch ROMs or try to restore a backup. So far I've always been able to get out of it. If your bootloader is unlocked every boot loop isn't necessarily the boot loop of death. But if your bootloader is locked you have pretty limited options to try and fix the phone. If you feel more comfortable on Marshmallow then just stay on your current ROM. But if you are going to flash a custom ROM I would stay away from CyanogenMod.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rcoliveirajr:
I know that CM is dead, but probably there will be unofficial development. I was thinking about it, because I would still have Nougat instead of Marshmallow..

My January OTA has just arrived, and I just blocked the notification, but I'm really thinking to flash the stock Marshmallow..
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seabro01:
CM will be replaced by Lineage OS.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rcoliveirajr:
Does anyone downgrade to Marshmallow?

Would you guys recommend me to do it?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jammol:
Why do you say stay away from CM? It is actually very stable. I've had no issues with it besides the battery crap on N. The dedicated CM maintainers are working on Lineage OS still. They have released a few nightly builds, but not sure if they are going to try and get a automatic build server up and running again for the OTA nightly builds.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhs39:
Lineage is starting from scratch. My understanding is that CM ceased to be open source after it was sold and Lineage can't simply update CM ROMs because that code is owned by the company that owns CM. There will be no more official development of current CM ROMs so I can't understand why anyone would want to use their ROMs. There are other ROMs that are in active development and are updated regularly so why not use them instead of CM?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CyberpodS2:
I know this thread hour into the weeds regarding CM but in reference to downgrading, as I said before it's a judgement call. The boot loop of death does not appear to be happening on 6.0.1 so it's all about what you can deal with if it goes south on 7.x.x
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jammol:
Some people have said it has happened to them on MM. Not sure how true it is but who knows.

---------- Post added at 03:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:08 PM ----------

Lineage IS CM. It literally is only a name change. If you go to the GIT you'll see, or even go to the CM thread. It's just the company and name is dead. All the source files were moved by maintainers and it was all rebranded to be called LineageOS. They just no longer have the pockets to run things the way it used to be.

And as far as custom Roms go, they are all the same. They are all either based on AOSP, or the Stock(Google) firmware of the device. They all carry the same features that they renamed to whatever the name of the ROM is. That has always been the problem with stock Android devices.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grushteniak:
I have a 6p that does not know Nougat yet, I'll stick to MM until further clarification.

No issues - latest MM, SuperSU 2.79, Xposed v87 and Franco v28.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Do some more research before releasing false information. Lineage OS isnt starting from scratch lol. Do you follow their threads or github? Cyanogen 7 was my first ROM on HTC Inspire...and it was BEASTMODE. They were pioneers on a digital frontier, and in my book OG. The name may be dead but Lineage is here to stay and they have all the OPENSOURCE code. Long live Cyanogen!!!!!:p
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dogmatism:
Well I downgraded as soon as the bootloop threads started to pop. Sorry to say it died in a week. Signs before the bootloop death, heat up, battery discharges rapidly, then whilst I was in a middle of a call, it rebooted to bootloop of death.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CyberpodS2:
Uggg
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sebasanchez:
Bad news, and there isnt official answer from Google
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seand88:
I was running MM and never once upgraded to N or used any beta previews always on MM. And mine started the bootloop of death 2 days ago. So I would say no don't downgrade it won't improve your chances of avoiding it
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhs39:
That's actually good to know since the overwhelming majority of people on these threads seem certain that Nougat is to blame. Were you doing anything in particular when the boot loop hit?

---------- Post added at 11:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:48 PM ----------

Hopefully your phone was still under warranty. Sounds like you got a lemon.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdroid666:
i do not understand what this thread is supposed to be about, are you people saying that a stock nexus 6p with no kernel mods or custom rom can just spontaneous go into a boot loop? and now people saying it can happen on MM and it is not just a N issue? or is this only for modded devices? or is it mainy something that ahppens on stock N?

my 6p has major battery issues and drains at about 1% per minute on stock MM, i need to RMA the phone now and it is on MM

i want to root it and install xposed so i do not want N , i found this thread looking to find out if a downgrade from N to MM is possible

so if my phone gets returned to me on N or if they send a new phone to me and it is on N, then am i stuck with N or can i downgrade in back to stock MM?

phone is not modded to root no TWRP no backup will i be able to get on MM if they return my phone on N or send a new one on N?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v12xke:
That is what the Google factory images are for. Yes, you can revert your phone back to MM. The instructions on how to do it are there too.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CyberpodS2:
I am the OP for this thread. When I got my phone back after RMA it was on 7.0.1. I chose to flash factory 6.0.1 and am running Pure Nexus 6.0.1 for now until some more is known about this issue. All good so far here.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fapste:
Actually the people who have updated to Nougat at any point in time when downgrade to marshmallow still face the bootloop of death issue. That's probably because of some hidden mis configuration that Nougat causes in some hardware element. However if you never updated you have a great chance of staying safe

Hi and hello everyone..

lately i ran into a issue, i restored my phone with the newest firmware from sammobile and after that i root it and install with costum ROM.

there wierd start after this, my PC cant find my phone anymore, "USB device not recognized"

this is what i have tested so far..

1. checked " #*0808#* to see if the phone is on AP + MTP+ADB mode

2. reinstall drivers

3. installed and uninstall KIES or switch

4. reinstall my windows 10 and windows 7 on some other computer

5, tried diffrent cable, even bought a brand new samsung OEM cable from the store

6. ODIN download mode dont find my phone too

7. tried all cable with a USB HUB with external power

8. cant find/see OTG memory stick in setting or in recovery mode

i wonder if the last flash to stock firmware went wrong.. but anyway, now i want to reflash the firmware, but since there is noway to find the phone in ODIN mode, what are my option.

even tried Mobile ODIN(payed version), but s6 edge plus is not supported.

What's your model man? & What firmware version?
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Righttoknow:
A s6 edge plus (sm-g928F) firmware 6.0.1 with Pure-Stock ExtraLite ROM

i also notice now, only thing that are working is charging in slow speed, from 5% too 100% will take about 4h 40min... fast charging is also disable in somehow. have check the setting in battery menu and also tested few oem cable.

only thing i can do now is flash with other costum rom that i download in phone.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LilAnt530:
Yes dude i have those charging issues too unfortunately they are recent, i turned fast charging off first thing because of reports it doesnt work correctly.

I have the same ROM available & the same model so l should be able to help if options are availabe lol

Can you get into TWRP? I have a backup for CM13 that you could restore then try booting into download mode
