[LG V20 Questions & Answers] ruthlessnature:
I waited awhile id say atleast 30 min each time. it never gets to the point where I can shut off the screen to do the static fix. I'm in the process of trying again I will let it sit for awhile longer and see what happens.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] ruthlessnature:
Still couldnt get it to boot not sure why.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] qstarin:
I locked up too. It happens just about a second into the boot animation. I can see maybe colored balls swirling and then some light text starts to fade in right in the center of the screen then it locks up. Pulled the battery and booted it up a 2nd time just in case but it also locked up and never finished. Gave it 30 minutes the first time and 15 on the second boot attempt.

About me: I'm using Grand Prime(sm-g530h)(xxu)

Only works on custom rom that based on CM.

Simple Steps.

1) Install any os that based on cm.

2) Enable developer options in settings.

3) Settings ->Developer Option -> scroll down Select USB Configuration as MTP(Media Transfer Protocol).

Cheers. Your USB or OTG is now supported.

Now next steps how to enable OTG in any file manager.

1) Settings -> Developer Option -> Turn on Local terminal.

2) scroll up and Root access -> apps and adb.

3) now open that terminal app and apply Commands.(1st command is "su" wait for few seconds then apply 2nd command "sm set-force-adoptable true"

Cheers. Enjoy.:cool:
[Galaxy Grand Prime General] Other Dimitri:
Will it work on cm too?

Cuz original CM are based on AOSP
[Galaxy Grand Prime General] eminemshady3349:
Giva try

Open developer settings and follow my method.

If your developer settings doesn't contain local terminal option/button then you can download any terminal app from google play store.

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Phascinate:
To give some background, my HTC 10 is the unlocked version, and the bootloader is also unlocked on it. Before Nougat back on Marshmallow it was rooted, but I kept the stock ROM and didn't make any major changes to the OS. So when Nougat came around, I just restored the stock recovery and system images, and it let me update fine.

Now today I decided to finally update it to 2.38.617.6 from 2.28, and now it keeps bootlooping over and over again. Pressing volume down does absolutely nothing. It won't go to download mode.

I can get to the bootloader by pressing volume up and down at the same time, but since I'm S-On, I can't run any commands or anything. Running "fastboot oem rebootRUU" just sends it into the bootloop again.

Is there ANY way to reverse this? I'm so sad. All I did was try to update it. :(

EDIT: Well, I talked to a lady on the HTC customer service chat and together we performed some form of black magic and now my phone is working again. Yay!!!

She told me to "take out the SIM and SD trays" and reboot the phone. I was like "yeah right, this will never work". Well, it did. I tried literally everything except that.

[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sakis_the_fraud:
Hello!

Can someone tell me how to update my firmware to the latest?

I have rooted my device and i would like to keep my data and settings, just update the firmware.

Is it possible without losing ANYTHING?

I am on MM firmware number 32.2.A.0.224 . Which is the latest?

Thanks in advance for your help!
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] L33Tgod:
Flash the latest 32.2.A.5.11 without wiping and you wont lose any data, but you will have to root again, just install stock patched kernel and flash latest supersu through twrp(included with kernel). Cheers
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sakis_the_fraud:
thanks for your reply!

I have found this guide Installing Xperia Marshmallow using Flashtool and XperiFirm [TUTORIAL], do you think that it's OK to follow it or there are some missing parts?

edit: after the new fw is downloaded nothing happens. I close xperifirm, but the flashtool won't go on with the creation of the ftf. Also I would like to ask about some ta partitions that i got backed up and i think i have to do something with them during the flashing. I have done the procedure back in the spring but i can't remember clearly

The root is the least important.

My main concern is not to lose data and settings! I hope that unchecking "Wipe data" and "Wipe SSD" will work!

I would wait for the nougat update but the bluetooth is not working with my new car stereo and it's driving me crazy!
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] L33Tgod:
i will send you link to .ftf
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sakis_the_fraud:
thanks for the link, but I am now using the Customised GR ROM (1298-7321) and I would like to stay on it just to avoid any compatibility issues or any other problems.

I will download again and will try to make the ftf myself.

If you have a guide or something feel free to post it.
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] L33Tgod:
I sent you customised GR rom, and you won't face any incompactibility , just flash it
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sakis_the_fraud:
Folder says "32.2.A.5.11 Customized Germany"

and the filename says 1298-3675 which is definitely not Greek.

I have managed to create the ftf, I restarted the process and it went through, don't know why it stuck in the first place. :confused:

now backing up with titanium and twrp.

any more help would be appreciated.
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] L33Tgod:
please don't say BS if you are not sure that it is true. i once flashed stock rom on custom rom without wiping and it worked without issues, only i lost root, so don't post on xda if you know everything
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sakis_the_fraud:
just to clarify, I never said that I know everything, about flashing something different I quote myself ".. just to avoid any compatibility issues or any other problems."

It's better and probably safer to flash the same fw region, although a fw from another region may work.

Anyway, thank you for your help so far, I have managed to complete the update procedure without any hiccups. :D

I know you say this is for the GPS version, but has anyone tried it on Verizon? I'm not sure if the firmware is the same on both phones, so I don't want to soft-brick by downloading the Google version if they're different. Same boat as you were, OTA fails even after unrooting.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] jesssiii:
As long as you never re-lock your bootloader, the process is the same. There's no more separate Verizon images, just USA and international.

Do you need to reflash stock kernel before removing root/TWRP before flashing?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] roirraW "edor" ehT:

Even when I un rooted mine. I was still failing to get the update.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] zelendel:
If you made any changes the the system partition then it will fail and simply unrooting doesn't make the all the changes needed. So if OTA mean anything to you then I would suggest not messing with your device as there is Jo promise that after an OTA you will be able to root again tonight away

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] exbtlegends:

Every Verizon phone I have owned loaded with a verizon splash screen.

Now as for the greyed out part, see if you are on the latest update. Some were having troubles with this if they weren't on the latest update. After updating, it turned this feature on
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Electroz:
You need to be connected to the internet (wifi or cell) for the option to become available. If you're connected, and it's still greyed out. It's probably Verizon.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] JJT211:
Hmmm......well good news is I rebooted phone and got a Google splash screen.

However, i didnt turn off auto updates in time and phone auto updated to 7.1.1.

Oem unlock still greyed out. And cuz of update, ship might have sailed on depixel8
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] aholeinthewor1d:
Verizon pixels don't have a Verizon splash screen. They have to normal Google boot screen. I would figure it out and contact asurion if they gave you a Verizon pixel. They should be replacing the exact phone you had. If it is in fact a Verizon pixel you are screwed and can't unlock since it updated to 7.1.1

How do you even have insurance through verizon/asurion? I haven't had it in years but I thought you could only get that if you got the phone through verizon... Didn't think you could bring your own phone and add insurance?

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] JJT211:
Nope, that is incorrect as is evident in this example. Ive bought my phones off Ebay ever since Verizon did away with unlimited data plans. Ive had a few replacements since with no probs. The only requirement is your phone, regardless of where it was purchased, needs to show as being activated on your account. Asurion insures a ton of other carriers, not just VZW.

I'm assuming you're on Verizon, if so check your device's name on their website. It should say "NON VZW PIXEL" to indicate a Google store phone.

So other than the locked bootloader...is there any other difference between the Goog and Red versions. I got Verizon Pixel from Best Buy on $240 deal and have used exclusively on Tmobile. There is zero Verizon bloatware I can find.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] roirraW "edor" ehT:
No.

I'm sure you mean "factory unlockable bootloader" since even bought directly from Google the bootloader isn't unlocked until you check the option in Developer Settings and then use the fastboot command to unlock the bootloader, but yes, that's the only difference.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] JJT211:

So i just called up Asurian and told them I was having random reboot issues and they sent me a new VZW Pixel that was back on 7.1. I then went thru setup w/o SIM and no wifi and immediately depixel8'd it. All good now.

WIP: concerning f2fs, apparently there is an issue on cold boot to recovery and f2fs/data returns to ext4 (?!), also I did not try f2fs myself since I'm using Multirom with hidden 2nd Roms: I will soon (after I proceed my backups & AsusTF700->f2fs).

The p880-dev/X3/fs/f2fs is 2015Feb update (much better then AsusTF700!): "Controls the trimming rate in batch mode"; and I'm not sure on best mount options flags.
