[Galaxy E5, E7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ping24:
Hi All,

Indeed I've been struggling to fix my GPS which is one of the thing I can't travel without and I am too much dependent on it. :( I tried several below methods to make it work in anyways possible but its failing every time and I have almost given up. I have no idea what could be the problem which is not letting GPS triangulate my current position. Basically the problem is while I start the GPS (Maps) the phone is able to detect the location but while I start driving, it stucks saying (Searching for GPS) all the time! I really need some help here.

Tried all these following methods to fix this issue:

* Rooted phone with CF Auto Root believing that it might solve. And no luck here.

* Flashed E500H with custom firmware through Odin [And it didn't work]

* Installed GPS Status & Toolbox to re-calibrate the compass [That also didn't work. I tried with a cracked version too and still no luck]

Is there anything that I am missing out here? Please help if anything can be done here.

Thanks a lot in advance!!

I had same problem in CM 13 Galaxy E5 Cutom Rom. I was not able to fix it.

But it works in my stock ROM

This post worked for me https://xdaforums.com/note-4/general/fix-google-maps-crazy-mm-cm-13-oem-fix-t3384447.

Hope this helps
[Galaxy E5, E7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anisursamsung:
If you run Stock Rom. Then the GPS is already OK.

If you install CM12. Then also GPS works.

If you install CM13 which is the best ROM till date as far as I have seen, then GPS doesn't work well. For that Install an application from Fake GPS location. And go to Developer Options and Allow Mock Locations. Then Run the app and locate your position manually and enable the faking. So now you can run the apps which needs location. But problem is it doesn't change as you move. You have to change it manually. So your problem persists. But I think some of your problems will get solved by this.

If you install Lineage 14 which is developed recently, GPS works fine. Indeed I am running Lineage 14 though its not as fast and smooth as CM13, but I love it.

So , best solution for you is install Lineage 14 .

The Honor 8 defaults file system for /data is F2FS. Do you see any performance changes going back to EXT4? Is it possible to keep F2FS?
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] FredMan147:
When I wipe then reboot I get stuck in the bootup screen

EDIT； Nevermind I just didn't wait long enough for my phone to boot up :)
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] faizalotai:
Yes, but twrp read it as ext file, i tested both format f2fs and ext4, i dont feel any different between those 2.

Yes, you can changed the data format to f2fs with twrp but if you reverted back to MM, its requred to changed the data to ext4 format, if not, you'll get bootloop. (dont know if its twrp bugs or not)

Worst scenario, you'll lost all stock recoveries and everything.

I've been there... Lol
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] KevinN206:
Are you saying I can format /data with F2FS to remove the encryption? I am assuming TWRP does not support the encryption yet. Bootlop sux but most important stuffs on my phone is stored on the SD card anyway so it's not too bad to start over.

Maybe it's just me but it seems encryption adds a bit of risks when playing around with rooting. Has there been a scenario where you *can't* recover from bootloop permanently?
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] faizalotai:
So far, i've experienced with bootloop and no recoveries available,

As long as you have fastboot mode and bootloader key, you're safe.

I'm running into issues with Bluetooth activation, and previously NFC, which i fixed by reflashing the hw_update package, but still no Bluetooth.

I've followed each and every single step on this guide, and BT was working perfectly before.

Any ideas where this may be coming from ?

Still, thanks or the guide :)
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Telperion:
For the SuperSU instructions, you don't have to reformat /data. Yes, TWRP won't be able to access it, but you really only need that for making full system backups. You can access everything in /system/ and then ADB push to /data/ after boot, or fastboot flash an image to /data/ from bootloader. It's not ideal, but it saves you from having to wipe out your configuration.

I'll echo the above poster, as long as you're bootloader unlocked and can issue fastboot commands I'm not sure you're truly bricked. Worst case scenario you ought to be able to flash individual partition images to recover, I unpacked the Nougat update zip to extract the partition images and I've been using those when my tinkering results in a bootloop -- corrupted boot and corrupted recovery I fixed easily.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] dede_lecochon:
Hello. Im coming from general topic on Honor 8 rooting but my issue is related to Android MM.

So i had stock EMUI 4.1 (Android 6.0) which i unlocked, flashed TWRP and SuperSU.

Today EMUI 5 (Android 7 ) update came by air so i installed it. After update - no TWPR neither SuperSU.

I enabled Developer options and saw "Enable OEM unlock" switch in OFF state and grayed out (impossible to switch ON).

So now i cannot flash TWPR as fastboot gives error "Command not allowed".

During boot phone says that it is unlocked, FRP lock. Otherwise it boots and works fine but no root.

Any solution possible?

Thank you.

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] venugopalu007:
Bro just downloaded this http://www.hihonor.com/uk/support/details/index.html?DOC_ID=92101

Extract this and copy to sdcard/dload (create a new folder ) and paste the extracted update.app.

And now power off the phone and remove usb connection . Now press and hold both volumes and power button. After vibrate release the power button , it will update your system to b131 from there u will get the nougat update.even after dload no update then resey once and try goos luck ,this will definitely works.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Shehzaan:
I will give this a shot! Thanks :)
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] gopinaidu77:

I had one big question to ask before I go through with this. By doing this, will my bootloader get unlocked?
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] PalakMi:
By doing this, your bootloader will be locked, because flashing full firmware will lock the bootloader
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Shehzaan:
Thanks for the reply. I just got this phone so I didn't want to unlock the bootloader. I want to keep the bootloader locked.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] PalakMi:
No problem, flashing a full firmware will never unlock the bootloader
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Shehzaan:
Okay so I did exactly what you said and now I am on B131. When do you think I will receive the Nougat update? How long will it take?
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] PalakMi:
Normally, a day at max and you shall get nougat.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] venugopalu007:
search for updater app in setting with mobile data and next with wifi, if still doesn't recieve update , format factory reset and see for updates.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Shehzaan:
I did exactly like you said and it's been 2 days, there is no update. Any other solution?
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] somoose:
Thanks and help!

Thanks for this guide. My Honor 8 FRD-L04 is now rooted after many attempts following other threads and sites.

Unfortunately somewhere along the way (in a previous attempt) I think I wiped the wrong thing in TWRP. I now have a somewhat functioning rooted phone, but some things are very odd. When the phone booted up, for example, I had no keyboard installed at all. I got past that and a few other, similar issues, but I still have a few issues, mainly:

Cannot modify ringtones

No Bluetooth

Cannot answer or make calls

Obviously the second one is somewhat of a problem for a phone. What's interesting is that most everything else works, but there are oddities, such as I cannot seem to access Updater at all.

Any recommendations on where to go from here? I figure I need to flash something, but I'm not sure what exactly I need to flash. I'd love to keep root, but I also can't spend much more time on my phone. I just need something that works.

Thanks!

Hi everyone I search around but couldn't find anyone talking about it.

So I turned off the X realty in the settings and noticed images looks better than before.

X REALTY somehow is making picture worst!

Did anyone noticed that???

Yes, you are right.

with X-reality off picture looks with less grainy. but on PC it is looks same.

Yeh I agree , I just noticed this today when enlarging the image it was too bad tried Manual mode , 8mp and 21mp and super Auto and all was bad around eyes face ...

Thoguht it was ALBUM app problem so i installed another app and the images was much better then I remembered X realty works with Album App and not with 3d party app so I turned it off and images looked better than before...

[Android Apps and Games] matejdro:
After switching from Pebble to Android Wear, I have noticed I kept missing notifications. I did not feel the vibration, but when checking the watch later, missed notifications were there.

It turns out that not only is the vibration motor on my SW3 significantly weaker than on my Pebble, most apps also only vibrate for like one millisecond, making them easy to miss.

While there are already apps that try to mitigate this issue, none of them really satisfied my requirements, so I have decided to make my own.

So what does this app do?

Simply put, after Android Wear finishes its puny barely-noticeable vibration, Vibration Center will kick in and do a good shake to your wrist, making sure you absolutely notice this notification. However:

It will do so intelligently (no useless vibrations for notifications that do not actually appear on the watch)

Vibration pattern is customizable and can be set differently for each app

If you are still afraid of missing notifications, you can enable alarm mode that vibrates restlessly until you dismiss it manually. It even comes with the snooze button.

It comes with plenty of spam filter options, making sure that your wrist is not shaken too much

It comes with on-watch mute feature that can either mute all vibrations for some time (for example when in a meeting or in a theater) or it can mute specific app until you deal with it later (for example if you are in group chat and they are having spammy conversation that would otherwise buzz your wrist every half a second)

There is full tasker integration

It is completely free and open source

I start out with over 50 phone contacts, but soon it dwindles down to 6 or 7. I've read about this problem with other phones, such as Samsung. So, I think it might be a bug with the Android operating system. It's a good thing I have a backup vcf file, so it's easy to restore my contacts. But, it's an annoyance if I have to make a quick call.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MajorMcNugget:
So basically, I have a Verizon note 4 with permanent root. I bought it second hand and it came with permanent root, but the problem is that I have no idea if it has an unlocked bootloader or not :confused:. It doesn't have any custom recovery on it aswell. But then it gets me to question how the heck did it get a Permanent ROOT without getting an unlocked bootloader. Oh and i also don't get shown a verizon logo when i reboot my device, only a samsung logo. And i live in South Asia btw, and can run a local

sim with 3g on it no problem as well....

Also worth mentioning is that on "About Device" in "Settings", it says SM-910F...but when i go to fastboot mode, it says SM-910V, and when i connect it to computer, it also says verizon model. Anyways, the real problem is finding out if my phone has bootloader or not. (READ BELOW ASWELL)

Any suggestions plez :(

PS: I tried to put a code in the dialer, something like *#*#7432XXXX*#*# (tried a lot of diff. codes in dialers aswell). PLUS, I also tried finding if i had an unlocked bootloader from adb and fast boot where u put this command in; "fastboot oem device-info" something like that, but I cant get "fastboot devices" to work (it doesn't give any result even with proper usb drivers and while in fastboot menu from phone) :crying: plez halp me....

Put it into download mode and see if it says, mode: Developer. If it does your bootloader is unlocked
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MajorMcNugget:
Well it doesn't say so ... sadly.

Anyways, I'm still wondering how the heck did someone install permanent root without unlocking this Verizon??? Like you have to do temporary root and then you unlock bootloader, and then you do perm root... how does one bypass that?
