[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] Pheckphul:
Fixed

As I had surmised, it was a driver issue. One of the driver bundles I had downloaded from androidmtk.com or another site foobar'd me. But before I had this straightened out, I gave up and used a Linux Mint virtual machine to verify my bootloader status, etc.

The way my drivers got straightened out was that I coincidentally ran Windows Update as I had updates available for which enough time had passed without reports of problems. Update offered me the following updates:

Important

Windows 8.1 Drivers

Microsoft - Other hardware - MTP Device

TP-LINK - Other hardware - Android Bootloader Interface

Windows 8.1 and later drivers

Samsung - Other hardware - Samsung Mobile MTP Device

Optional

Windows 8.1 Drivers

MediaTek - Other hardware - Android Composite ADB Interface

After installing these I again tried to use fastboot from my Windows box and it worked fine. So, one of the driver packs I installed screwed up my MTP drivers evidently (both the updates offered were from early last year). The TP-LINK driver was the VCOM I needed for fastboot to work.

So, all's well that ends swell. :)

Amazon Prime running on V.6.1

Windows 7 x64

I am having similar issues but I don't fully understand how the OP solved this problem. I believe I am connecting properly with ADB but no response from fastboot. Here is what I have done so far:

1) Installed the "15 Sec ADB Tool". Drivers seem to be working but could not located the ADB folder the tool was supposed to create. I suspect drivers were installed correctly because under Device Manager I have "Android Phone > Android Composite ADB Interface"

2) Directly downloaded latest SDK Platform Tools, which includes adb.exe & fastboot.exe, among other files. Tried testing the tools with the following results:

C:\Users\Phantom\Dropbox\Personal\IT\Android\SDK Platform Tools\platform-tools>adb devices

List of devices attached

* daemon not running. starting it now at tcp:5037 *

* daemon started successfully *

5DFYRKKFQWBEQ4LJ unauthorized

C:\Users\Phantom\Dropbox\Personal\IT\Android\SDK Platform Tools\platform-tools>fastboot devices

C:\Users\Phantom\Dropbox\Personal\IT\Android\SDK Platform Tools\platform-tools>

Phone is turned on while doing the commands above. Could someone shed some light? Is the ADB response adequate? And should I get a fastboot response as well? If so, what could be the problem?

Lastly, phone has UBS Debug mode enabled.

Thanks in advance!
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] mrmazak:
This shows adb is on , on your phone but you did not allow the connection. =. When you first connect pc to phone with usb cable and adb enabled , you should get a pop up window on the phone. You may need to wake the screen and unlock to see it. The window asks you to authorize the connection

You also missed a step here. You needed to reboot phone to bootloader /fastboot mode before asking to list fastboot devices.

So before that line you should have done "adb reboot bootloader"
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] OldSkewler:
mrmazak, you are absolutely right on both items. I wish I had come across something explaining this earlier... spent a lot of time sorting this out!

Hopefully this will help someone in the future!

Thanks !
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CyberpodS2:
Please don't take this the wrong way but scrolling down the very forum category you asked this question in has a dozen different threads about the same problem. We all seem to have different ideas of what causes the BLOD but regardless that is front and center on the list. I personally choose to stay with 6.0.1 after getting my phone replaced.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Utini:
Ye I am aware of the batter issue.. although I am not sure if I can "protect" myself against it (e.g. checking build date in fastboot or so).

Anything else that I should look out for ?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CyberpodS2:
Just take note of the few trips along the way. There was a version of TWRP that had problems restoring EPS. Some folks are having issues with dec updates of a few roms. Mostly just read each Rom thread and look for the common problems. It's a pretty solid community actually.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v12xke:
Both our 6P's have been flawless. Unlock the bootloader first thing and keep it unlocked permanently, update to the latest firmware and enjoy your new phone.

Do not go cheap on chargers/cables. When you buy something, make sure it is certified compliant with the USB-C standard. See the Accessories sub-forum and Benson Leung for more info.

Oh my god.. so many reviews on comments... just tell me.. whats the best charger for the best price I can get right now (preferable on amazon europe) ?

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v12xke:
You can't go wrong with Choetech brand chargers and cables. To avoid problems, buy a charger that has at least one USB-C port rated at 5V/3A like the one that comes with the 6P and use a USB-C to USB-C cable for charging. Just search on Amazon for "Choetech USB-C". My advice is just to stay away from using any charging cable with USB-A. Same goes for your car charger. Good luck.

He shouldn't unlock right away because:

1. He'll lose Android pay, access to a number of banking apps, and other apps that use safetynet, assuming that he uses those. Especially WHEN, not if, safetynet patches magisk.

2. Run the phone for a week or two before he starts modding, if he does, so he can see what's NORMAL so that he can see what's ABNORMAL.

3. Why unlock it ASAP when you get no benefit on stock, with the loss of functionality talked about in #1.

Hi,

I'm using Gear S3 with S7 edge. Once I start workout using the phone S Health app it doesn't show up on the watch. In addition it doesn't use watch HR sensor so it's kind of useless. I would like to track cycling with BT speed/cadence sensor connected with S health (works fine with phone) with HR data from watch.

I've tried to start same activity on the phone and on the watch but the data won't merge eventually.

Is there any way to monitor an activity on the watch once initiated on the phone?
[Samsung Galaxy On5 Questions & Answers] FISBANREGNER:
so i rooted my first android device about 6 hours ago went great. how ever i made a rookie mistake and turned off the oem unlock after I was finished now I'm stuck and fear i may have hard bricked my device, i used odin 3 with twrp 3.0.2 and installed the supersu even made backups using both twrp recovery and titanium backup. but when i rebooted my device im stuck in the boot loop with a red message stating custom binary blocked by frp lock. and recovery mode is not accessable, only option is download mode. ok so i tried to go back to the stock rom but i get custom binary(recover) blocked by frp lock. is there a solution here or did i prema brick my phone.

im not new to the modding process i have done a few other devices just never rooted a phone before today.

ok so i was having an issue where i bricked my metropcs sm-g550t1 (galaxy on5) when i downloaded the stock rom for my phone i would get a sw mismatch D2 B1 error. the reason for this error is the update that came out in the beginning of 2017 changed the firmware version from PF1 to PL1. so if you are also having this problem when trying to unbrick your phone use the firmware for phone SM-G550T2 then use your twrp backup to unbrick but remember to turn the oem unlock on or you will brick your phone again

Hey,

I am currently on radon kernel, ressurection remix. I want to revert to stock kernel, but I don't want to flash MIUI again. I know that I can make a TWRP backup but I'm too lazy to do all this.

Does the boot partition contain the kernel? So I could have backed it up from TWRP.?

[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] sreinst1:
Hi,

I've noticed that, when I take my phone out of its (magnetic) car holder, I often find it in fastboot mode. I'm don't know why, but I suspect one of the following:

- I mistakenly press the power button as I take the phone out of its holder, without noticing, and it's probably too sensitive, and somehow I touch the fastboot mode (if there is such) in the power menu.

- My car holder is a magnet, and it may affect the phone. I've already noticed that if I use the magnet in a specific place on the back of the phone, the touch functionality is lost. If I move the phone just a bit, the touch is restored. Maybe releasing my phone from the magnet can cause the phone to enter fastboot?

Does anyone else experience this?

Thanks,

Shlomy
[HTC One X9] Element x:
Hey guys,

I've been experiencing a problem with my bluetooth recently. I am always connected to bluetooth in my car or using my samsung level U, I use it for both media streaming and calls. But about one week ago when ever I am connected to bluetooth either to my car or my samsung level U I can only listen to music, but can't receive or make calls. So I'd be listening to music but if I get a call.. I can't answer through the car i need to pick up my phone. Same thing for my level U.

I've tried everything from simply unpairing and pairing it again. To clearing the bluetooth cache. The problem only seems to go away when I restart my phone. But it will only work once after I disconnect bluetooth the first time the problem appears again.

Ive also tried to simply check the phone audio selection under the bluetooth menu but it wont check it.

FYI i use to have an HTC One M7 before this phone. And it works just fine. I also tested a Samsung Note 3 with both the car and the Level U, it works just fine.

Specs:

Phone: HTC One X9 dual sim ( Android 6.0)

Car: Renault Safrane.

Hi,

I often use the RunKeeper application when I make long walks. In all my previous phones, the GPS kept working when I turned off the display and put the phone in my pocket. In the mi 5, however, it seems like the GPS stopped functioning as soon as I turn off the display put the phone in my pocket. When I take it back out, it shows the same position that I was at when I put the phone in my pocket, and within a few seconds it is updated to my actual position.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is this a matter of settings (maybe even permissions)? Same happens with navigation apps like Waze - if I put another application to run in the foreground, such as Youtube, then Waze (while still working in the background) loses my location, and when I switch back to it after some time, it takes a few seconds to show me my new location.

Thanks,

Shlomy
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] samithax:
Hi,

This has happened to me also while using the Starva app and the reason is MIUI doesn't allow to use the Location in Background.

To allow that, go to

Settings -> Battery & Performance -> Power -> App Battery Saver

and select the app you want. Then you'll see that Background location is Restrict. Make it Allow and you're good to go.

Regards,

Samitha

Hey everyone I'm from Toronto, Canada. I currently own a Samsung Note 4. I wanna buy the LG V20 but I want to root it and also have it work with Freedom(Wind) mobile's LTE network. Is there a American or International LG V20 that is rootable & can take advantage of Freedom's LTE network.

since freedom uses b4 and b66, I guess your only choice for a full LTE support is H918.

actually on freedommobile.ca you can get the h915 with full official support to their bands... no idea if it's rootable though, guess you'll need someone else to help on that :)

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] aweskelo:
Dont do it. I sold my note 4 for a note 7, then of course had to turn the note 7 in and I mistakenly chose the V20 as a replacement. I wish I could have kept my Note 4, because the V20, even with updated processor, is no better than my previous Note 4. In fact, the camera on my note 4 was WAY better. =(

Whats wrong with the LG V20? I think it would be a perfect phone if it had a Super AMOLED display instead of Quantum LCD. I think that's the only thing I'm giving up. :crying:
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] stanglifemike:
I have both. The Note 4 was my primary phone before purchasing the V20. In my opinion, the V20 is a much better phone. My Note 4 has been sitting in my nightstand, untouched for months. I know many disagree, but I prefer the LCD display over AMOLED. While AMOLED may look slightly better, it really isn't something you'll notice in daily use. Plus, my Note 2, 3, and 4 all suffered from screen burn-in rather quickly. Something you don't have to deal when using an LCD display
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] evo4g63t:
Outside of the battery saving power of amoled and the stylus, everything is better than the note 4.

- faster processor (about x3 in benchmarks)

- double space

- 1gb more of ram

- better camera

- better display (in certain aspects)

- second screen no other phone has is quite useful once you get used to using it especially playing music without having to turn the screen on.

Having to replace a phone 3 times for defects is extremely rare, the chances of getting a perfect unit is much higher. I am curious to know what SaintZ had problems with.

I upgraded from a note 3 to a v10 and had no regrets and that phone wasn't nearly as good as the V20.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Alseir:
I know I wish it was Super AMOLED display then the LG V20 would be a complete upgrade. Can always swap out the battery. LG V20 looks like a direct upgrade to the Note 4.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Team DevDigitel:
Ive got my note 5 and the v20. I also had the hct 10.

I love the amoled screen for samsung but i was getting tired of not having something a little newer.

The v20 has s good processor and is managing heat a ton better then i imagined after their last few phone's.

The screen is big.. Overall color is that of a lcd. Cf lumen or any 9other color adjustment is a good option when rooted

The battery is fair. It is removable so that i guess is a plus.

No wireless charging

Finger print scanner

Dual cameras are cool.. Still some grain on screen when taking photos that shouldn't be there. It dosnt actually effect photo tho.

Ir sensor on top is nice. It reads and sends thats a huge plus.

Type c port is nice

Sd card slot.

I mean overall its not bad at all.. There could be some adjustments to speaker quality and the 2nd screen utilization. Its fast and sturdy.. Probably lgs best phone they've put together.. But the note 7 still would have killed it cold if it hadn't been recalled.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] evo4g63t:
Agreed speaker could use a definite update only company that seems to do decent in this department is HTC.

I also think the options for the second screen when it is on should be the same as when it is off, the options when the screen is off is pretty limited.

I would agree on the note 7, in fact I was considering a jump from the v10 until all that battery bs happened.

If the Note 8 offers a removable battery I will definitely upgrade but that's very unlikely. I like getting aftermarket batteries for my phones and a battery charging case isn't the same in my opinion.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] jeep447:
I was a huge fan of the Samsung Note line and I had every one of them up to the Note Edge (which is what I had up until I got the V20), but personally I had to draw the line when Samsung started trying to be like Apple and did away with expandable storage and removable battery with the Note 5.

It's just a shame because I actually really liked the Super Amoled screens and especially the S-Pen, but I just refuse to own a phone that can't be rooted, doesn't have expandable storage, and doesn't have an IR blaster (because I literally use it to control my entire house).

With that being said the only real option for me was the V20 and to be honest I was actually surprised to see all the negativity towards it, I love my V20 and I'm still extremely glad that I got it because I was honestly worried about whether I'd like it or not (especially just coming off of 6 plus years of having nothing but Samsung phones).

I love the placement of the fingerprint scanner/power button and it's just nice to finally have a fingerprint scanner that actually works right for once, and overall the V20 has been smooth as butter for me with impressive battery life, I really like and use the crap out of the dual cameras, and overall it's been hands down the best phone I've had to date.

To each their own of course but for me at least it covers all the "requirements" I look for in a phone, which unfortunately is getting to be like finding a diamond in the rough nowadays.. so I'm glad I found it!
