[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
No offense, but if you didn't have root then TiBu wouldn't work properly... Obviously the rooting worked.

Rooting itself doesn't prevent updates or there notification, it just keeps it from being applied properly. Freezing the app in TiBu should prevent it though.

[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] dandv:
I'm considering moving on from Samsung Galaxy to this Xperia, but there's one really handy feature the Samsung S7 ROM has - when you take a screenshot, there's a button at the bottom "Capture more". If you tap it, the screen will scroll, and the newly visible portion is appended to the bottom of the screenshot. This makes it easy (and possible, really) to take screenshots of long conversation threads in messaging apps. Found it very useful.

Does the Sony ROM have this feature?

If not, is there a screenshot app that could do this?
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] marco_ask:
I do not think so.

You can do it with a third part application: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.glitch.stitchandshare
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] dandv:
As I mentioned in another thread, I'm considering moving from SGS7 to this Xperia. One feature I really like in Samsung's camera app is that it can be voice-activated - you launch the camera, and then whenever you say "Capture" or "Smile" or "Video" and it takes the photo/records the video. Super handy to take pictures from odd angles, above you, or selfies with the back camera without messing with timers.

Does Sony's camera app support this?

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] thexcodec:
As the titles says, I need the latest BL and Modem (or a link on where to get it) as I am going to install "OnTheEdge" 6.0 Beta 2 to try it out however I can't figure out how to download the BL and Modem for my specific variation and from my understanding due to canada the W8 is not compatible with the F international variation.

*Edit* - I should note I have already looked at "https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G935W8/RWC/" however that only has for 6.0.1, I need the 7.0.0 correct?

*Edit 2* - Lets say I do just download the latest 6.0.1, its a large file from SamMobile, how do I get the BL and Modem flash from this?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Phazonclash:
Uploading... give me a moment

APK3 (from 6.0.1. No 7.0 CP/BL available yet for the W8 variant, but no problem with the 6.0.1 ones)

Bootloader https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B7NTwhbole31b0xHMjNOZFJ2MVU

Modem https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B7NTwhbole31MTFBNEh5Zi1LNzg
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] thexcodec:
Thank you very much for the quick reply and for the uploaded files as well!

May I ask what you did to get those files (trying to learn all this stuff as I find the world of a rooted phone an awesome one but there is much to learn!) ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Phazonclash:
I extracted the BL/modem from the full Generic APK3 firmware I found here a few weeks ago. I wanted the latest available modem/BL for my W8 S7 edge too, but I didn't want to subscribe to SamMobile just for that. I suggest you to keep that link, it has many up-to-date files and firmwares available for our S7 edge variant.

Having them separately is more convenient than having to download the full firmware (2GB+) though but well...

My wife has a nexus 7 (2013) I feel it's on its last legs. So she wants a new tablet and I just can't spend what the pixel c costs. I k ow on the nexus devices you can have multiple accounts on it. I was wondering if this Samsung tablet can do the same. As my wife use multiple accounts for some app card games. I think the pixel c would be overkill for her and looking for cheaper costs also.

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] afrophysics:
Hi all, I have a unique problem i'm hoping you can solve. So I got my vzw google pixel last month. Everything was great for the first week, until I had received a text saying I was out of data. I checked my data log and all of the data usage was Android OS, as apposed to a specific app. Spoke with Verizon, they said it was a bug, refunded my data, I did a factory reset, everything was gravy.

Fast forward 1 month later. This glitch happens once every two to four weeks, and I end up spending way too much time with Verizon getting my data refunded, which is second only to the security concerns of 7GB of data that verizon/google cannot account for. Is there anyway to isolate data metering for specific services of Android OS (again, services, not apps), so I can try to figure out what the culprit is?

Google Pixel (VZW)

Android 7.1

Rooted, then un-rooted with factory reset (still unlocked). Problem occurred post root, but not immediately after. That being said, please don't jump to assuming this is an EBKAC unless you have a valid explanation. I've rooted all my past phones without issue and I read documentation.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] TonikJDK:
Are you current on updates? It might be going nuts trying to download the update. There have been a couple of reports of that..... But not too the extent you have been hit.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] afrophysics:
The first time this happened, auto updates were disabled in the developer menu. Thanks for the speedy reply!
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] TonikJDK:
Them too, it seems to still phone home and download. There is a big reddit thread on it
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] afrophysics:
I guess I'll try to update it tonight and see if it happens again. If anyone else has an idea of what it could be, please feel free to chime in (7GB is still huge for auto updates). If worst comes to worse, is there a re-lock guide anywhere for the bootloader? I saw a lot of warnings against it early on so I haven't tried myself, but I may have to if I can't resolve this.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] afrophysics:
Updated, problem persists. Now 7.1.1
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] GeekMcLeod:
I have my own thread on this same thing except I had over 20gb downloaded for Android OS. After I updated to the latest build and turned off auto updates in developer settings, it stopped downloading. So I'm not sure exactly what could be causing it for you. Hope you get it fixed though as I have a 900$ phone bill from it.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] geoff5093:
What carrier do you have that charges almost $900 for 20GB of excess data?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] GeekMcLeod:
It was over 30 GB of excess data, 20 just in one day plus my actual data package was around $150. I'm with bell canada.. So it was like 750 in extra charges.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Soccerdude588:
I hope you contacted them about it. Unless you rooted, and that's the cause, you shouldn't be held completely liable for your phone somehow downloading 20gb per day.

Though, echoing the shock of others, damn, $750 for 30gb? How the hell is that a thing? Here in the US, data overages among most providers are $10/GB. Yours are $25.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] GeekMcLeod:
I did, there was nothing they could do. I didn't even tell them, and they didn't ask, if I was rooted. I was rooted though. I do believe it is my fault I just can't believe how excessively they screwed me sideways.

I attached a screenshot of the bell website for data pay per use.

I also checked my actual details of that phone bill and I was actually only over 8.26 GB. When I seen the bill I guess I instantly forgot I upgraded to 25 GB plan to try and stay with in the limit, but I still went over. And the extra charges were actually only 570. I guess I must have had a missed bill or 3.. Still excessive though. Once I pay that off I'm definitely switching away from Bell.

[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] Purplezigar:
Is there any way to root without TWRP? I'll be doing this for a family member, and want to keep it as stock as possible. I just want root to remove some stock apps they don't need, then probably unroot. Is there any way to do so? Otherwise I was thinking of flashing TWRP, rooting, then flashing back the stock recovery.
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] mrmazak:
You can boot into twrp.

Use "fastboot boot twrp-recovery-file location"

Then you can just use the root shell from twrp to make changes, no need to flash SuperSU if you want the ROM unrooted.
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] Purplezigar:
I'm not quite sure what you're saying, but it sounds like you're saying that I can boot into the TWRP image while I'm connected with fastboot, without actually installing TWRP?
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] mrmazak:
That's right. You can just boot twrp instead of flashing it.

And when twrp is booted you can connect to phone with adb, you will have a shell with root privileges.
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] Purplezigar:
Cool! So then I can just remove system installed apps that I don't want (e.g. Google Play Movies and Books)?
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] mrmazak:
You could also read this thread as see if the twrp packages there are what you want to do.

They can all be run from the booted twrp.

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Saythis:
I suggest using the dload method. Download your factory image, create a folder on your SDCard named dload and extract the Update.app into that folder. Power down the phone (unplugged from charging or usb) and press power + volume up + volume down until it begins restoring. Note: This WILL lock your bootloader again.

You can get the factory image here:

So let's give this a shot all and see how many of us have a messed up phone download perfect piano and swipe your finger across the the keys real fast and if your phone is messed up you will hear loud crackling then try it on another phone with same app and guess what you won't hear crackling also apparently its only at full volume lowering one click might make it stop.

Edit: 3 clicks lower for me makes it stop google is calling it software issues and says its in process of being fixed and should be within the month but my issue with that statement is if the volume has to be lowered for it to stop then toe that's not software but crappy speaker hardware that can't handle the output of the volume. What that means to me is if they plan on fixing it what they gonna do lower our volume output so much to where we can't hear our phones anymore.? so that way they can save money by not replacing them and saying there fixed.

Also google rep had said they are trying to find out exactly how many devices are affected as of right now seems to be very wide spread through out a lot of devices so calling them and letting them know you are affected will help he said and possible speed up the process of finding a fix or replacing whatever if more and more phones are reported with the issue

I have a Verizon QB Pixel XL 128GB (yeah, one of the lucky Black Friday ones that actually had it shipped) and YES, mine does have the issue when performing the "Perfect Piano App" test. I have not heard it other than that, however I don't usually use the phone's speaker much in daily use anyway.

At this point I am not going to worry about an exchange "right now" unless something critical starts showing it. If it truly is a hardware issue, I can wait it out a few months to until it is at least xda/reddit confirmed fixed, then go through the RMA process.

I just feel lucky to have one at this point.

So... Brilliant me. I have a Samsung S4 975L Rooted with Optimised Cyanogen Mod 13. Love the device, AND the software! Made the phone much quicker.... However- Something I've always been curious of is encryption. Obviously, the security option under settings gives the option to encrypt the device. I wiped the system, reinstalled cm-13, and went straight to the encryption. It rebooted, and stayed on the cm-13 welcome screen for hours. After that happened, I got to thinking I may have done encrypted the phone from the software! :confused: Now when plugged in to the computer, it is not recognized unless I mount the USB, then I can access the files.... But nothing recognized in Odin with it plugged in. How can I wipe the internal memory and reinstall the vital information if I can't access it?? I'm thinking I pulled a real boner here, and managed to not fully brick, but may as well have. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you in advance!
[XDA Assist] jlmorey:
FIX!!!

Should anyone have the brilliant idea I did.... HERE'S THE FIX!!!!

Enter recovery (I use TWRP)

Wipe... Not just the standard.... Wipe Dalvic, System, Internal Memory, and Cache. You will then need to format. (WIPING INTERNAL MEMORY REMOVES ANY ENCRYPTIONS!!) If your rom and gapps are still stored on your external memory, simply reinstall both and let it go to town!!! If by chance you were as unbelievable genioius, and somehow no longer have the rom and gapps (guilty), you'll need to plug in to your computer, let it install driver while your phone is in recovery. In actions, choose to open files. You will be able to access your rom folder, and copy your rom and gapps back in to their rightful place. Then of course install both, and enjoy your success. :)
