[Shield Android TV General] the.teejster:
The pro version comes with the old remote (rechargeable battery, headphone jack, no IR).

Non pro version comes with the new remote (replaceable battery, no headphone jack, IR).

My personal preference is the old remote as I find the headphone jack much more useful than IR. With the limited number of buttons on the remote, IMO, IR functionality wouldn't provide much of a benefit.

There are CEC control functions under settings / hdmi.. There are two options, one to turn on TV when shield is turned on and the other to turn off TV when shield is turned off.

Whether or not they work will depend on how new your TV is so YMMV with CEC. It works perfectly for me on my Vizio 55" 4K TV. It also automatically switches to the HDMI input of the shield when the shield is turned on.
[Shield Android TV General] zedlion:
thanks for the reply

1 last question in order for the shield to turn off the tv does putting it in sleep mode count to turn off the tv or does the shield literally need to be powered down

(ill be connecting it to my vizio 55 in a few months when i replace the tv that the shield is hooked up to now so its good to know how it will behave then)
[Shield Android TV General] the.teejster:
I never completely power down my shield... I always choose to put it to sleep for one very good reason (in my circumstance).. I'm not sure if the 2017 PRO version is different than the 2015 version. But if you fully power down the 2015 version then you have to power it on by the button on the shield itself. The Shield 2017 NON Pro edition doesn't have a power button. The pro version does just like the 2015 version. Does it have included IR support? Since my shield is hidden away and not easily accessible it's a pain anytime anyone ever fully powers down the unit because neither the remote nor the controller will turn it back on.
[Shield Android TV General] warglock:
I have the 2017 base model of the Shield TV. The remote does indeed have IR and it works well with my Vizio 41" 5.1 soundbar and it controls the volume, thought I hate the "touch sensitive" "slot" deal they have.. With CEC set up properly, I can let my Shield TV sleep and it will auto turn off both my TV and soundbar. Pressing the center button of the Shield Remote wakes up the Shield TV and turns on the TV and Soundbar. The new controller does have IR as well. I have done a teardown on the base model and the new controller and can confirm.

https://xdaforums.com/shield-tv/general/teardown-shield-tv-2017-controller-t3549963

Anyone with the Pro 2017 model care to disassemble it and snap some pics of the motherboard? I'm interested to see where the IR sensor is as I would like to try adding it to my base model. I didn't know the base model didn't have IR on the console when I purchased it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] kevinjessy:
Hi guys! My n4 just crashed on me and now im wondering whether i Should buy an s7e now or use my reserve n3 and wait for the s8 to come out.what do you guys think?

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Darkseth:
Depends on you.

Both are valid choices.

S7 edge is still one of THE Best smartphones on the Market (at least in the Top 2-3), and the Price is pretty appealing atm. 570-600€ here in germany.

However, the S8 will of course be better. But.... Rumors claim, it will start at 849€. That's almost 300€ difference + you have to wait.

Which means, that will be a whole other Priceclass.

So, how much would you like to spend? Rather 600 or rather 900?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] CuBz90:
If you have the patience, then wait. If like me you don't have the patience, then buy the S7 Edge.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Genebaby:
So far I'm not liking the rear fingerprint sensor. No home button is fine but I wish the sensor was on the front as first rumored.

Hopefully they might fix it on the S9.

Also, I read yesterday that the smaller, but still bigger than S7E, S8 will have a 3000mah battery, which doesn't sound good either.

I'm glad I got the S7E at launch, it fixed the issues of the 6, so maybe 9 will be better again.

I would get an S7E today rather than wait for S8.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] saurabh808:
wait for ir till it blasts in ur pants :p
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Phazonclash:
The way I see it, even after the S8 launch, the S7 edge will, for a while, remain the better phone overall, from a user-experience perspective:

-It's rootable! The S8 probably won't be for a while without breaking some features/stuff. It will take time

-The community (thanks XDA!) already got around most of the protections/limitations Samsung implemetented for the S7

-The many tweaks/ROMs/Kernels available. With the S8, you'll be stuck with the stock, bloated ROM for a while

-The S7 is running on Nougat (So it's not like the S8 will bring a totally new and different user experience. The S7 isn't running on outdated software)

-The S7 is not by any means a slow phone, even by 2017 standards (There's stagnation in the SoC department)

The better phone doesn't always have the better, faster and most recent hardware as far as I'm concerned... ;) As someone who likes to experiment with my phone, try stuff, get the best out of it, go beyond what the manufacturer allows, I always prefer a ~1-2 yo flagship phone that benefits from a big, helpful and dedicated community Vs. the newest shiny toy ;)

That's something I've learned with the years: Always get the *~6-7-8 months old phone. It will be cheaper, and it will already have all the cool stuff by the time you get it!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] B3311:
I'm waiting for the Note 8. It's going to be hideously expensive, but Samsung simply can't afford to get it wrong in any way. It'll be worth it IMHO.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Beefheart:
The S7 Edge can be gotten on fantastic deals at the moment, and that will only get better the older it gets and especially once the S8 is released. Yet despite its age it is still one of the best on the market. I mean, seriously, what Android phone out there is demonstrably better, despite the S7E being 10 months old? Nothing really.

The key question you need to ask is what the S8 will bring to the table that the S7 Edge doesn't currently offer. If those things aren't important, you could save yourself 30%-40% per month with an S7 Edge, plus with no upfront fee.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] kevinjessy:
Your totally right man. Plus thr fact that probably most if the s8 festures will be portable to the s7e and so on trough custom roms ^^

Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-N930F met Tapatalk
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] force70:
Thats easy.

Wait for the S8 of course.

Buying a device right near the end of its life cycle makes no sense in my view...you buy them on launch day not when the next model is coming out lol.

And not that it isnt a great device because it is but with the S8 literally right around the corner a person would have to be nuts to buy a year old device ( unless you had no spare device of course).

Id wait and it would be an easy decision.

Sent from my Note 7, S7 Edge or S6
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] kevinjessy:
Yeah but imo i find 800 € to much for what is still a phone.. and i have other priorities also like looking for a apartment with my gf so i have to look finqncualy and probably it will be the s7 edge

Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-N930F met Tapatalk
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Beefheart:
No. What makes no sense is buying a new device simply because it's a new device without looking at what it brings to the table. The S8 on launch day will cost at least 30% more than an S7 Edge, and you will be expected to pay an up front cost.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] ef1x:
I would wait for s8 to release. After few reviews would compare price and what you get for your money and then decide if its worth buying. Also with s8 releasing the price of s7e should drop. My opinion is that s7e should be good for another two years of running
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] force70:
Fortunately I am in a position that cost isnt a factor for me.

But your right i wouldnt buy a new device simply because its new....it needs to appeal to me. In the case if the S8, besides a more powerful SoC and better camera they had me when the 6.2" screen was mentioned.

Thats my major issue with the S7 edge, the screen is too small for my liking for my personal device. Once the S8 drops the S7 edge will become my new work phone and I can retire my ancient S6 and use it for music in the gym when I train.

See theres a method to the madness :good:

---------- Post added at 04:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:08 PM ----------

You didnt mention cost when you posted so I considered it a non issue, if you already know its out of reach for you financially why even bring it up?

That said, dont sell yourself short....it won't be available until April...that is ton of time to save up for one. :thumbup:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Beefheart:
Cost not being a factor isn't the point, otherwise I wouldn't have brought it up.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] kevinjessy:
Cost aint a factor. I just find 800 euro much for a phone. And thr s8 will b3 nice. But ive bought the s7e today and on a custom echoe rom its awesome. When s8 comes out im sure that the dev will port over the s8 festures to the s7e so

As the second phone I am using a Nexus 6 with the almost similar files and the reserved space is 27,36gb.

TUTORIAL How downgrade from B521 beta to B170 stock only for NXT-L09C432 Single Sim Model Europe

Confirmed Working!!

1.First Download Rollback file from link

https://cloud.mail.ru/public/D6KF/RAWNz6oVx/NXT-L29/Rollback%20from%20EMUI%205.0%20to%20EMUI4.0/dload/

2.Download B170 from this link

http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1076/g104/v45284/f2/full/update.zip

3.Make dload folder in internal storage

4.Copy Update.app of Rollback to dload folder

5.Now turn off phone and do dload

6.After phone boot exctract Update.zip of B170

7.Copy exctracted Update.app of B170 to dload folder

but first delete Rollback update.app

8.Now turn off phone

9.Now dload B170

10.After updating is finished your phone is boot and you be on B170 firmware

11.Now you can update via HiSuite or HiCare to newest version

If i help say Thanks
[Mate 8 General] blinkt88:
I forgot with that tutorial you can go on B560 for L09C432 without any problem all what you must do is LOGIN into Huawei ID than open HiCare and check for updates there you will get B560 if you will check for update under phone system update you will not recive B560 but don't forgot you must be on stock B192 in other case you must first update it to B192 if you want HiCare find B560
[Mate 8 General] freaked9:
With this rollback package you can skip the B320 (EMUI 4.1) versions, and go directly to B1xx (EMUI 4.0)? Because there was a downgrade package (B300) also for going form 4.1 to 4.0. With this, we don't need that?
[Mate 8 General] freaked9:
I tried, and it worked, thanks! One thing to note: i chose to downgrade to B192, and before it started, it needed a password to encrypt the data partition. I just turned the phone off, and made a factory reset and cache wipe in the recovery and it doesn't asked for the password after.
[Mate 8 General] blinkt88:
Just enter any password and press OK you get an error but than phone will ask you for formatting/ factory reset just allow and phone will shutdown and do factory reset than phone will boot normal to system

[Mate 8 General] jee82:
Just did this procedure and it worked great! One thing though, i never got any password request or errors when applying the B170 update.app, it installed successfully, rebooted and optimized file system, but it then went into a bootloop. Had to factory reset and wipe cache for my phone to boot properly. Seems like factory reset and wipe cache is obligatory for it to work, just a heads up :)
[Moto Z Play Accessories] iamrico00:
I love the moto z play. Its a great size but I dont want anything bigger. Its a large 5.5'' phone comparatively.

Does anyone have any suggestions for a super thin case.

Debrand skins work well too i guess but I want to fit a small magnetic disc under it for a car mount

The style shell would be perfect if it would fit one of those metal discs under it.

Thanks in advance.

[Moto Z Play Accessories] dracsirk:
From my experience you don't need metal disc with this phone. It was designed to work with back covers with magnets built in and sticks to magnets at bottom area near metal pins with thin silicon cases.
[Moto Z Play Accessories] iamrico00:
Yeah ive tried that. The magnets are at the top around the camera hump and below the Moto mod area. There are no metal pieces in the middle of weight distribution unlike the Moto z and z force. So the phone falls off easy
[Moto Z Play Accessories] _ghiottone:
Imak sandstone case or Nillkin tpu. I use both of them, and they are very thin.
[Windows 10 Mobile] Puppy2016:
Recently I run a batch of application updates but Skype update reported error 0x80004005. Uninstall from Start screen app list didn't work but I managed to uninstall it via Storage, App sizes list. New install reports 0x80070002 error on the end (download, restoring user data and installing progress is ok). I have regular 14393.693 build.

On Windows 10 PC version the WSReset.exe tool would probably fix that. Is there any alternative on Mobile OS ? Any other applications works, the Skype installation only is broken.

I already tried delete temporary files, soft reset and log off from Store.

I'm not sure if it's right place to start this thread but the problem is that after clean install of lineageOS nightly build from 25th of January I have no recovery that's what ROM manager app says, phone doesn't show "SONY" logo while booting which means that I can't boot into recovery mode (and that's obvious because I think I don't have recovery) also phone is not rooted and works without gapps. Is there any option to fix it?
[Sony Xperia M] Sriwelcomesu:
Lineage OS recovery

I installed Lineage OS for my Xperia M which was running on Cyanogenmod 14.1.

After installing the OS I pressed the recovery option after pressing power option, but the set do not boot to recovery by to Lineage OS only. I used TWRP recovery.

I tried to flash TWRP recovery via ADB, but the message is

C:\adb>fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

sending 'recovery' (11208 KB)...

OKAY [ 0.705s]

writing 'recovery'...

FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)

finished. total time: 0.721s

Can some one help me.

I am new to this forum and a non - techie.

I have moto G2, Sony XperiaM and Nexus 6 all phones rooted. MotoG2 and Nexus 6 are running with resurrection remix.
[Sony Xperia M] jo2710:
Xperia M does not have a recovery partition like some other devices. See the "some info" section on this post

I don't know of a fix at the moment, but as a work around in the meantime you could:

flash an image containing a recovery to the boot partition

fastboot flash boot recovery.img

Then when booting the phone you'd have the recovery options

If you wanted to boot to android, you would need to reflash the boot partition with the boot.img file in the lineageOS zip
[Sony Xperia M] Sriwelcomesu:
Thanks for the reply. Will post after trying this solution.
[Sony Xperia M] TheJimmy1300:
I haven't tried to flash recovery via adb yet but thanks for information that it won't work

Edit:

You flashed twrp.img as far as I remember you should change file name to boot.img and then flash. I'll try it later hopefully phone will boot in recovery mode
[Sony Xperia M] Motherjoker:
I had the same problem on my girlfriend's Sony Xperia M.

Just download the latest Lineage OS nightly (I used 20170131) and extract boot.img from the zip. Then go into bootloader mode (settings -> developer options -> advanced reboot, long press of lock button -> reboot -> bootloader, you should now have the blue light on and the screen turned off), connect it to the PC and run

fastboot flash boot boot.img

TWRP should now work again
[Sony Xperia M] Razoralpha:
Thanks, you saved me a lot of time.

For anyone else who are in the same shoes:

Note that it is crucial to only connect the USB when it is already in fastboot mode, since if you have to unplug and replug it for driver detection/reinstall purposes, when you unplug it the device simply turns off or reboots to system.

If it is stuck <waiting for device> you might have to visit the device manager and update the fastboot device's driver.
[Sony Xperia M] Sriwelcomesu:
Thanks everybody for your replies. This is how i solved the issue.

Got the phone to fastboot mode using key combination

connected to pc

Confirm device status by typing fastboot devices

Then flashed recovery by typing

Fastboot flash boot boot.img

Twrp was renamed as boot before flashing.

After completion used key combination to go to recovery and i was in twrp.this booting to twrp will take around 10 mins. Be patient.

The os will not be there. We need to flash os and gapps
