[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nythrend:
Hey guys, I cannot wipe data/factory reset in CWM recovery. When i click on wipe data/factory reset there are 5 ''no'' options only. Every one of them sends me back to the main menu. I cannot flash the rom, it requires me to wipe the data. How can i solve this? I really dont want to screw this up again, I hard-bricked my s4 mini recently.

How about twrp?
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nythrend:
I tried to install twrp to my s4 mini (i had the cw installed) using twrp manager but i hard-bricked my phone, so im not big fan of using twrp. I want to try downgrading my cwm but I have no idea how to do that. Is it possible to install over the current cwm with using odin or should i do a clean installation first, reinstalling stock recovery then flashing the new cwm recovery? Or any other solution?

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cango123:
You won't screw up anything if you take a good guide and flashing manual through odin is (imo) the best way to do this.

Guide says "Download and extract "GT-I8190_TWRP_2.7.0.0.tar.md5.zip" but there is a newer version available so use 2.8.7.3 from here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347840977

Good luck!
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nythrend:
I have CWM installed already, will it be a problem?
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cango123:
No no, of course not. This will simply overwrite your current recovery. Don't forget: This is for i8190 model only. Don't try this on i8200!
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nythrend:
Last question. I already did a backup with CWM, do i need to do it again for TWRP? Can i use the CWM backup for restoring later?
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cango123:
Nope, cwm backups are unfortunately not compatible with twrp. But don't worry, flashing a new recovery doesn't wipe data or system.

If, contrary to expectations, something should go wrong, you can still flash cwm again and restore your cwm backup. So no matter what - do always a backup, it is always useful.

I tried to flash full OTA but I can't find which version of firmware I have to flash. How can I find what fw I have?

welcome to the BLOD family
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v12xke:
From the Sticky Index in the General Section:

Bootloader 3.51 (MHC19I/MHC19Q/MTC19T/NPC56P/NPC56W)

Baseband 3.61 (MHC19I/MHC19Q/MTC19T/MTC19X/MTC20F/NPC56P)

As you can see, it was on the cusp of M and N. Overlapping the two, it looks like NPC56P would likely be your current image. Since you are able to get into recovery to sideload the OTA, the BLOD may not apply to you. You can also try a factory reset from recovery.

[Samsung Gear S3] Matrix1990:
Hello guys!!! I have an Gear S3 Frontier from 2 day ago and am so happy with it the only "issue" is that my ex-watch Casio PAW-2000 had the hourly chime and I just love that chime beep hourly. I'm searching for a possible app from 2 days with no luck.

I there an option beside the notification for each hour I would like a app with changeable tones or vibrate.

Have a nice day!

:good::good::good:
[Samsung Gear S3] DaWeav:
I agree. There should already be some sort of app available to do this, but it seems no Tizen developers have done one yet. Especially with all of the Big Ben watch faces available you'd think someone would have done it. Anyway, I would like to have one programmable for each half or even quarter hour as well so that I could have different audible sounds during each hour and half hour. The old sailor in me would love to here the S3 ding ships bells.
[Samsung Gear S3] Tel864:
I thought it would be something I'd like also. I can also see me wandering around the house trying to figure out where that beeping is coming from. Sort of like when one of my smoke detectors has a low battery at 2AM. :)

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Dblaster:
Hi all!

My S7 is unrooted, completely stock, running latest 6.0.1 official update

Few days back I updated some apps from the play store and after that, my phone suddenly restarted on its own

This sudden restarting kept on increasing and currently the device boots up for a few seconds, and then freezes and restarts again

I know there's some faulty app that's causing the restarts, because once i managed to turn the UPSM on before the device restarted and it worked fine, with all the apps disabled

I have tried to get a logcat to look for the issue but I can't do that properly as I haven't taken any logcats before and i'm not familiar with the process

I have already tried to flash the stock firmware but that didn't help either

Is there any way or solution to get this fixed? Or can anyone here help me on how to get a logcat so that I can look for the error causing app?

There's a lot of stuff on my phone and I can't risk losing it by factory resetting it
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] munchy_cool:
I would boot into safe mode, backup my data first. Then start uninstalling apps I do not need and see removing which one fixes the issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Dblaster:
I've booted into safe mode as well, but that isn't helping either

The same keeps happening in same mode as well. The device boots up, and after some 30 seconds it freezes and restarts and gets stuck in a loop
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] ofekbit123:
Hey, I'm on romaur v4.1

How can I go back to stock?

Just the stock ROM, not everything else like relock the bootloader, only installing the ROM itself.

My bootloader is unlocked and I'm rooted, thanks :)
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] Magic-Fabi:
simply try emma or just flash a stock ftf with flashtool
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] ofekbit123:
What is Emma? :/

And if I will flash my stock ROM through the flash tool it will not brick my device?

I'm having TWRP installed..

So :

1. Wipe my device through TWRP? Or through the settings?

2. If I wipe through TWRP, remove the system too so the romaur will be gone and then I will flash the stock through the flash tool ?

If you can write steps about how to do this it will be great!

Thanks!
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] ofekbit123:
Also I forgot to mention that I'm using AndroPlus Kernel and not the stock one..
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] Magic-Fabi:
using emma will wipe everything. it will wipe your recovery, your data, your boot etc, so that will be fine and if you don't exclude something when using flash tool this will happen too.

emma is sony's offical flash tool for unlocked devices. just read through the linked website, it takes you directly to sony's instructions on how to use emma and the download. also, you won't need to look for a ftf as emma offers you to select either mm or n respectively

for flash tool:

find a stock ftf for your xz (f8331 is international version and f8332 is dual sim, but

as far as I know

(so I can be misled here, be careful there!) it's not too important which variant you flash)

download androxyde's flash tool on flashtool.net and follow the on-screen instructions

because your bl is already unlocked, i assume that you have all the correct drivers installed, so i'll skip that

then click the lightning icon in flash tool and select flash mode, select the downloaded stock ftf. i recommend wiping everything in the upper left box which says wipe or so, so don't forget to backup your data! (basically the one next to the box labeled "exclude") and wait until a screen pops up giving you instructions on how to boot into flash mode. follow them and wait until another dialog shows up asking for flashing with a scs? (can't look rn, driving to school atm) script and select yes. wait until the process is finished and you'll boot into stock software. also note that this will wipe twrp from your phone. i could've forgotten something, so just read other threads as the instructions are complete/correct and more structured

your phone should not be bricked as long you don't plug out the usb cable during the flashing process
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] ofekbit123:
Thanks for your answer!

And how can I revert to the stock kernel?
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] Magic-Fabi:
the kernel will automatically be restored except you exclude it specifically in flash tool but emma won't ask and restore everything to stock

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] vyper4:
I think when you're writing the response, there is already a few symbols there. So what I did was copy the code and when I am going to paste it I hit ctrl+a to select all text, then control+v to paste the copied code. After that I then click execute, it needs to be done quickly.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] modiko:
Great. I get the update now but when I go to disable proxy and come back to update, the update disappears. Do you know how to solve that?
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] vyper4:
Sorry for the late response, yea when you get the update don't press the back button. What you should do is to pull down the notification, then press and hold onto the wifi toggle, you'll end up directly in the wifi section where you can then change back the proxy. After you do that just press the recent apps button and go back to the updater, then click update.

Don't forget to hit that thanks button ;)
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CBornes:
Hello guys

My Zenfone 2 front camera is not working. I'm using Lineage ROM.

I would like to acess the hardware test, like the one in this link but is not working. How can I acess this test?

Anyone had the same problem after upgrade the phone?
[Android Apps and Games] Steveno98:
The title says it all, but I explain calmly how it happened.

I was trying to want to install the official version of LineageOS for my Zenfone 2 and after downloading all the necessary files, have formatted and clean everything (except the SD), trying to install the new custom rom and then have the same "error 7". Then I realized immediately that lacked the Bootloader for Marshmellow, so I tried to look for a ZIP file for this, being able to find it right for my smartphone. The folder was known as "M_BL_upgrade_for_zf2_ze551ml_6.0" and once I had entered the USB cable to my PC and started the "Upgrade.bat" program, after the strangely reboot bootloader returned closed (it was understood from the screen, which instead to be white background with black writing was black with white lettering), then I tried to go back in recovery mode, realizing that every time I tried to get in, it was as if I were locked in a deadly circle and then kept restart and then return to where we started ... you have any idea how to do it, maybe re-add the Recovery Mode standard via CMD? :(

Hi Guys,

This is my first post and its 1 in the morning, so please forgive me if this has been asked before

Later today, I'm wanting to place an order for the HTC Cruise. I liked the Glofiish x800, but dismissed it because of the potential buggy nature of the unit from reviews I read and of course the support forum is nowhere as good as this

So my question. Since the Cruise already comes with a cube, will I be able to use any of the Cubes created by developers on this forum, since they are much cooler. If so which ones?

Are there any other apps that will work from this site, that will add the kewl factor? For example the 'apple-esque' lock function S2U2 - will that work on the Cruise?

Sorry if this is a stupid question or has been asked before, but I'm a newbie to the Pocket PC and any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Going through this guide, I was able to get the services disabled through root package disabler, bit my android tools kept force closing for some reason.

*edit* uninstalled, rebooted, reinstalled, and was able to get the app to stay open, and got them disabled. I'm curious to see what my wake locks are going to look like tomorrow. This is pretty much the nougat answer to amplify, huh? =)

Hope it gets rid of those for you too. If I remember correctly I noticed the problem since Nougat, but then again I've been on Android since only a few months, coming from a big pause. Last time I was around we were rocking the HTC HD2 and had to deal with very different problems. :)

Yup looks great. :)

[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] cha0zine:
Thanks for the tips. Works great!
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] youknownothing:
Thank you for your awesome work!

I have two more questions:

1. What about CampaignTrackingService? Could we disable this one as well?

2. In MyAndroidTools under Broadcast Receiver there are lots of receivers like AppMeasurementReceiver or FirebaseInstanceIdReceiver. They also need to be disabled or disabling the corresponding service is sufficient?

Thank you very much :)
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] MeggaMortY:
1. I initally disabled that in a few apps and didn't have problems System-wide or with the apps. So you can give it a go and in case of apps not functioning you can revert those back.

2. No for now it's okay to just use the Package Disabler for that. Like I said both apps have similiar functionality, there's probably a way to find the right service/receiver and disable it globally from MyAndroidTools, then we won't need the Package Disabler. But since it did work for me and I don't install new apps more than like once a week, I just didn't bother figuring it out. I can only say that disabling certain services/activities in MyAndroidTools can brake functionality or even bootloop your device, so be very careful in case you wanna find out if it's possible. :)
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] youknownothing:
Thank you for your quick response. I'll give it a try, if anything goes wrong I'll let you know.

Is there any difference between Package Disabler and Disable Service app? I've tried the former, but it was really buggy. Scrolling was so glitchy and with lots of stutters that I've accidentally disabled few services. So I've used Disable Service with success. Now I only wonder whether both apps have the same functionality. Do you happen to know that?

Thanks in advance :)
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] MeggaMortY:
Assuming you're disabling services, which we are lol (should've been more obvious for me too I guess), I'd say you should be fine, and even say maybe the same goes for just using MyAndroidTools, just scroll through the Service menu in Table Third-Party and you'll see the same settings you applied with the other app/Package Disabler. I guess I was lazy to realize that since I liked I can favourite the apps I need to keep an eye on in the Package Disabler.

So all in all you should be okay, but even better you may try and just use MyAndroidTools for both. I have some exams coming so I won't be able to test those things but will make sure to update the tutorial if indeed that turns out to be right (for the app you suggested or even just MyAndroidTools).

Give a shout in case you find out something more. :) And thanks for the info

[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] NJGSII:
Disabled everything that is said to do in this thread and it worked great while I was at home while on wifi. I had drain of .5% an hour at times. However today while at work and on LTE, drain went up to 2.6% an hour, plus wakelocks from play services was waking up the device on average over 3 times a minute. When I looked into it further there was one service under play services where all the alarms were coming from. I do have a screenshot of this. Anyone have any insight to this? For the record, I do keep location off on my device.

Edit: I wonder f it comes from moving around a lot, as I'm always on the move as I manage a restaurant. Its not really a major drain, but still makes me wonder.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] MeggaMortY:
Have you disabled location history in the Google App? The problem is this guide fixes only one concrete aspect of the whole "Google stalking experience" shenanigans. Please check for the thing I mentioned and also in Settings -> Backup & Reset, make sure Back up my data is off if you haven't logged in an account and intend to use that - these two things were also draining battery for me when I was on the go as far as I can remember.

I did some checking on that list and am currently testing a way to only use MyAndroidTools for the whole aproach. If it turns out to be working the whole guide would get reduced to like 10 clicks, since the settings are global. I'll post more info after a day or so to make sure it is working, but as for now I see promising results. :)
