Hi all,

Since yesterday, my Viber constantly crashes. It openes for like 2-3 seconds, and then it force closes.

So far, I've tried restarting the phone, moving app to SD card, uninstalling and installing, downgrading to previous version, but no luck.

So I'm running latest Viber app, there are also no software updates for ROM (I'm running original ROM, phone is not rooted.)

When I go to running apps in developer options, it just says restarting, 0 processes and 2 services (voipService and AccountAuthenticatorService).

Also, when I go to settings, where is no Viber account to sync, I try to add it, but the account is not there.

I did not install any new apps recently.

I've created issue for Viber support, but honestly it looks that they are reaaaaly slow.

Phone is HTC Desire Eye.

Does anybody have any idea, what is causing this, and how to fix it?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] seanpint:
well as above really. i had the kaiser for a while now and dont use it much at all because its locked to t-mobile and i got a 3 sim card now with free calls and texts so am using me hermes as my main phone. any idea would be helpful because if its a long way off am going to try and sell my kaiser again.

cheers people
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] captainsensible2002:
You could try ringing t-mobile and asking them for the unlock code - would cost you £15 and you might need a plausible excuse (such as travelling abroad and wanting to use a local sim card for cheaper calls) but so long as you're long enough into your contract they should let you have it. Can take a few days though....
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] crispyj:
If calling T-Mobile doesn't work for you, you could always look in ebay for someone selling an unlock service. I purchased mine on ebay for $14.00 (US), provided them with my IMEI, and received the unlock code within 24 hours. I put the code in and it worked like a charm.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Tom Williams:
Be careful using a 3 sim in another handset other than the 3 handset you upgraded to or took with a contract.

3 have been known to IMEI bar other non 3 specified handsets used by customers with 3 sims.

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Greensystemsgo:
Good afternoon folks, sorry for what may appear to be a silly question but I wanted to confirm I understood what I needed to do before I committed.

I have a Verizon XL, DePixel8 and SuperSu'd the week they came out. Currently running ElementalX 3.18.31-ElementalX-0.05 with SuperSU 2.79. This is android 7.1 with security patch from October 5th. Looks like to update the kernal I need to flash TWRP. BUT if I need to go through that dont I need to put the stock kernal back on?

Is this what I need to do?

-Backup my stuffs

-factory reset

-Flash Stock firmware kernal bootloader and then twrp

-factory reset/clear cache and all that good stuff for good measure?

-TWRP RC1

-At this point, Its fine, I COULD tryPure Nexus or some other rom on here but I would at the very least like to patch the security vulnerabilities. So....?

-Activate/install SuperSU

Then I am back in business?

Side note, Certain apps, like stupid snapchat recognize the hankypanky going on, but sometimes doesnt. It literally sometimes works. Is this fixed in later updates/supersu/roms? Or are we waiting for xposed? or Am i missing something?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] BDogg718:
So, your bootloader is Unlocked? If so you can flash the newest 7.1.1 .imgs from Google via fastboot. It wont re-lock ur bootloader. From there flash TWRP and flash any Rom you like. All ROMs keep pretty up to date on the security patches. RR included. Which is here
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Greensystemsgo:
Really? So i guess my issue is with Elemental-X then stating it needs TWRP to be updated. Does that mean I should just dump Elemental-X? OR update Elemental-X Manually over fastboot and not on the phone itself? This is my screen so It looks like it is unlocked.

I will look at your Rom recommendation, I know it will overwrite my existing kernel which I dont care about I just though I needed to revert it back to stock BEFORE I update it.

So, I have an unlocked bootloader, BUT no recovery, so basically everything is done over fastboot which is what I am used to, all TWRP does is add a nice graphical interface to it? But doesnt modify the bootloader persay? So really I dont even NEED TWRP but it may be nice. Really I could just stick a rom on there via fastboot and be on my merry way? I think that was where my confusion was stemming from. I read your roms page and sounds like a solid option. Thankyou!
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] BDogg718:
No my friend, U def still need TWRP. Fastboot and TWRP are 2 very different things. Follow TWRP instructions for installation. You want to flash TWRP RC1.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Greensystemsgo:
Sorry for not being clear, I was accidentally using bootloader and twrp interchangeably.

Heres how I did it;

- Backup my junk

- Factory reset

- Flash NMF26V-vendor.img via fastboot

- Boot into twrp via fastboot

- Clear Cache

- Flash rom via twrp

- Clear cache

- Flash twrp via twrp

- Flash su via twrp

- Clear Cache

- Factory reset

- Profit.

Hi guys,

Hope im posting this at correct place.

If not please suggest a new location.

Anyhow...

I have the b&o H6 headphones. Love them puppies but they are pretty darn hard to drive.

I read somewhere that if you're cable has a mic/remote controller on it, the v20 won't recognize it as high gain no matter of the impedance.

But, if you hold the answer/play button on the remote while inserting the jack into the v20. Hold it pressed down for 2 seconds after and voila..it is recognized as 'external audio device' which also produce high gain.

Please check if that works with other headphones and lets me know.

Oh and dont forget to credit
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Hyper4mance2k:
On my Sennheiser Monemtum 2.0s, it's just in Aux Mode, but it does make a huge difference in output. "An external audio device is connected." I had to hold down play and volume down.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] repsol_23:
I have the free set of b&o headphones and i too get external device mode. Sounds great. Had to adjust viper settings but sounds amazing. What once was around 35 volume is as low as 15.

Thanks for this great find!!!
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] stemplar007:
It really works. will aux mode . But remember this is just aux mode. Only 25% (high gain is much stronger than approximately + 50%)

a good idea if you have a headset which is remote.

even if the play / up or down/ play buttons to keep. about 2-3 sec.(Even before the insertion press and hold)

It provides about 25% + gain. (In the high gain mode to normal mode power 50-75% +)

If you are not the headphones with remote control.

You can first place a pre-extender jack plugged into the phone, and then plug in the headphone to the extender. Aux position.

Unfortunately, such acts only half a credit for you :) :)But it is very clever idea

(( But the title is misleading slightly. Because it would rightly so: Trick to force ,,Aux,, mode with no extender

High Gain mode (two adapter required)

Connected together( extender+75 ohm adaptor)

than to be inserted into the phone . (The phone will be HighGain position), then pull out the impedance adaptors increased. The extender will remain. (The phone still remains high position), this is the trick. !! and then you can plug in headphones to less than 50 ohms on the Extender. ((This + 50% gain compared to the Aux mode. ))

And we enjoy
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] somemadcaaant:
Yeah works good find!
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ninjafrog84:
So glad it works for you guys ?

I thought aux mode=high gain.

But that is high enough for my ears.

Cheers guys.

V20 all the way :cool:
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ninjafrog84:
While in the OP i mentioned 'aux mode', i kept the title with 'high gain mode' to make the it clearer.

"Trick to force aux mode" sound weak ?
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] stemplar007:
:D My friend :) would be nice if to erase the High Gain.

Aux transcribed onto. It is therefore misleading.

Hi,

I'm trying to help a friend that tried to update his P9 Plus VIE-AL10 using the sdcard method and something went wrong; now the phone is stuck on bootloader;, but the screen doesn't turn on, nor any light...

The bootloader is locked.

My PC recognizes the phone and I can connect using fastboot but can't flash anything, I get:

fastboot flash boot BOOT.img

sending 'boot' (14962 KB)... OKAY [ 0.500s]

writing 'boot'... FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)

finished. total time: 0.500s

I tried different stock firmware versions, including the one that's still on the sdcard, same results..

None of the key combinations work... but if I keep pressed the PWR button when connected to the PC I get a disconnect/connect sound, so it must be rebooting...

I was able to fix a xiaomi redmi 3s by putting it in edl mode shorting a data pin with ground on the USB cable... is there any similar method for huawei phones?...

Any help would be great!

Best,

Gustavo Melo
[Huawei P9 Plus Questions & Answers] makabress:
shorting pin will give you another mode ( huawei com 1.0) it like qload 9008 a serial mode ,you can't access to fastboot with this

you need a software to force the bootloader and install any soft like dc-pheonix ( it will cost you 15 euro for 72h of use)

don't use methode 2 of dc-pheonix if you will use it

if methode 1 dosent work ask me i will do an xml config file for you that can work with dc and help you to solve your problem

other pepole talk about funkyhuawei 2.0 i have not test it
[Huawei P9 Plus Questions & Answers] Gusimelo:
Hi,

So, dc-phoenix will work even if I can't turn on the phone to system or recovery?

Also, would it be possible to install any firmware, like a global or european firmware using this method?

Thank you,

Gustavo Melo
[Huawei P9 Plus Questions & Answers] makabress:
If your phone is detected in fastboot ,than yes you can install any firmware

for ota update you will need to flash the oeminfo with srktool or dc-pheonix
[Huawei P9 Plus Questions & Answers] Gusimelo:
Thank you for your help! I'll talk to the phone owner tomorrow to see if I should go down this route... is he agrees I'm sure I'll have some more doubts...

Thanks again,

[Huawei P9 Plus Questions & Answers] makabress:
ok ask me if you need more help

you are welecom
[Huawei P9 Plus Questions & Answers] Gusimelo:
Hi there... I took the plunge and used dc-phoenix... the phone is back to life! thank you very much for the tip!

Just one more thing: since I now have 72h hours to flash whatever I want, is there any firmware I can flash that turns the phone into an European version?... If so, will OTA updates work?

Best,

Gustavo Melo
[Huawei P9 Plus Questions & Answers] makabress:
I think it will work if you change the oeminfo too

But backup your before this

(I'm doing my best to keep the colorful language at bay but I've spent the last 3 hours trying to work around the reflashing... I messed up one file.... which gave me bootloops. So I thought I could replace the file in fastboot. But little did I know about that.

Xperia X Performance has what we need. A working official recovery. Is it that hard to implement that for our X? Imagine if I had only ADB available. I would've pushed the file I messed up within minutes.)

Apparently there are unofficial builds.... Sorry for the commotion. 've gotten used to official builds and lots of XDA posts on my previous devices that I forgot to check for unofficial builds. I should try them... At least for ADB

Can someone tell me which is working for MM - stock sony? I don't want to loose the DRM fix, etc. I don't need it to be fully functional - just the basics - flashing zips, ADB commands, etc.

[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom Software Upgrading] scorpio16v:
After months of learning and digging deep inside the Atom Life, I think now it's time for a newer Rombuild.

Cooking the imgfs is not the problem, but I didn't understand the XIP from Atom Life.

We have 2 XIP parts, compressed in SRPX format.

Grabbing them is no problem with Scoter Kitchen Tool MSFLSHTOOL.exe.

The kitchen contains 2 tools to change from SRPX to XIP and reverse.

As I described in the Atom Life Kitchen thread, repacking the XIP.bin to SRPX causes a smaler file than the source file.

The cooked OS doesn't boot. :mad:

That's the first big problem.

The second one are the two XIP sections. The first one is bigger and contains some files, the second one didn't has.

But some files are existing in both sections with different sizes.

So cooking the Atom Life XIP seems more complicated than in other devices.

Here are the 2 XIP sections. Hope someone has an Idea, how we can work with these files:

http://rapidshare.com/files/79622471/LifeXIP.rar.html

Edit:

The first problem is solved. I have compared the original XIP part with the new one in a hexeditor.

I've simply hexedited the beginning and filled the end of the new file with FF to match the needed filesize.

After comparing both, now the new file is identical.

Maybe later, we can use the space of 300kb to encrease the memory of Atom Life .:)

I wonder, where all the ROM-Cookers for Atom Life devices are hidden.:rolleyes:
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom Software Upgrading] scorpio16v:
Another positive aspect is, now we can change the Pagepool of the Atom Life.

After changing the PP from 8MB to 4 MB, my device has a total Program memory of 52.41 MB. After a fresh setup and some tweaking with SKTools, I have, after a softreset more than 29 MB free Programmemory. :)

[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom Software Upgrading] scorpio16v:
Thank you for the hint.:)

As I can see (or guess, because I can't chinese) there are some ROMs for Atom Life. Even some Pagepool changed.

You can change pagepool only, if you extraxt the XIP, edit it and cook the new ROM and flash it.

But if there are already some ROMs, there is no need to explain, just download the OS of your choise.:)

I wonder, why nobody of the Rom cooker offers his work for english speaking people ?

As I can't read chinese, please can you or someone else post download links to the Atom Life ROMs of this site ?

[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom Software Upgrading] scorpio16v:
Of course

Hope I can explain it that everybody can understand. Because it's hard for me to explain thinks in a foreign language.

1. You need an original Atom Life FLASH.dio

2. remove the 12 bytes header with a hexeditor and rename the file to AL1.dio (you don't need these step, if your file is already prepared for MiniSD card flashing. Only for original ROMs from official Updates)

3. download Scoter Romkitchen.

http://rapidshare.com/files/15460590/Scoter_Kitchen_1.0.exe.html

or http://www.megashare.com/107480

4. You need the SRPX tools from this kitchen.

5. put the ROM in the SRPX folder

6. in commandline change in SRPX folder and type:

msflshtool AL1.dio -d -p 1

7. You'll get a new file called AL1.dio.part1

8. Now type:

SRPX2XIP AL1.dio.part1 xip.bin

this will produce xip.bin

The SRPX compressed XIP will be changed in the regular XIP format.

9. Locate the following hexstring with an hexeditor:

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF9B4FFFFF64B00000

One line below, you will see:

00008000

That's the actual pagepool from 8 MB

10. change the value to:

00004000

or an other prefered pagepoolsize. Save the file first.

11. Now the tricky part, I don't know an easier way yet.

12. type:

XIP2SRPX xip.bin

You will get a new file called: xip.bin.xiporg

13. As you can see the new file is much smaller than the original one part1.

So you must fix it with the hexeditor. You must compare the original file with the new one.

14. the beginning of the new file should look like the original one, so you must edit the values in the new one till the word SRPX.

After I take a learning lesson by my "teacher" ferryboat, I found out that steps 15 - 17 are not neccessary !! Jump to 18.

(Will edit the howto, after further compare) :)

15. the old file is bigger and the end is filled with the value FF.

16. just copy the FF -block and paste it to the end of the new one. Save it.

17. Compare if the new file has the same size like the old one.

18. type

msflshtool AL1.dio -r xip.bin.xiporg -p 1

19. the new file will be written in the AL1.dio ROM image.

20. put the image to the MiniSD . Bring the Atom Life in bootloader-mode and flash it.

Done and ready :D

You can test several pagepool sizes.

After reading your stuff,It seem that a little bit diffcult for me to understand,But since you explain so well,I think i can make it happen!!
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom Software Upgrading] scorpio16v:
You need only to copy and paste the quoted commands in commandline.

The whole procedure needs only about 10 minutest from editing the ROM till to the ready flashed device. :)

Even the hexeditor is included in Scoter Kitchen, so you have all tools that you need.

The hexeditor in Scoter Kitchen called XVI32. For editing, just open it twice and load the original SRPX.part1 in one and the edited in the other opened instance.

At the beginning of the file, you will see the difference. Only edit the values that are different, till the text "SRPX" (you'll see it).

To copy the "FF" block, just go to the end of the edited file, you'll see where the file ends.

At the original file, there is the beginning of the "FF" block.

Go to first "FF" value,

press CTRL+B , goto the last "FF" value, press CTRL+B again, you will see the block red marked.

Go to "copy to clipboard" button and push.

Now go to the end of the new file and press the "paste from clipboard" button and save.

Hope that some of the new ROMS, tools and knowledge from PDAClan find the way to XDA-Developers, because that'll be bring "life" in the Atom Life comunity.

Thank you for YOUR help.
