[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] Potato997:
Sorry, but in my opinion custom ROM for our P9 lite are already usable as daily driver.

I used CyanogenMod 13, Resurrection Remix (6.0.1) and now LineageOS 14.1.

So far, I can say that CyanogenMod 13 is pretty stable, it does not have any bug and I used it as daily driver. Resurrection Remix only has a problem video video recording, but everything else works. LineageOS 14.1 is already stable, the only "big" issue that is has are USB tethering, Wi-Fi/Bluetooth hostpot but I guess they will be fixed soon and SELinux.

If you follow carefully the instructions to install a ROM, I don't see any problems.

I am personally on LineageOS and I managed to install Dolby Atmos, it works very good ;)
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] Woozyclown:
Thanks for ur answers. I will take a look on cm and lineageOS. What sound options would give me Dolby atmos? Is it like viper4android? I dont need 5.1 Simulation or something like that, just need it for a eq and to enhance the loudness.
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] Potato997:
Dolby Atmos boost up sound, I have excellent bass sounds and also volume increase without losing quality. Also it's customizable and you can modify the options, although default settings are already great.

I'm using an unrooted Xtrons PF series Headunit. MTCD version running 5.1

I'm trying to add a task with Macrodroid that either kills Spotify or the radio when one or the other is launched.

As it stands, I'm unable to kill the radio task with the macro.

Any ideas or tips?

Cheers.
[Android Auto General] chammock:
I did try this, I am very much a beginner when it comes to android, I found that killing the radio process just spawned a new one every time and didn't effect the audio output. At present I am limited to using the back button in the radio to turn it off every time. If you find a way to do this I would be interested.
[Android Auto General] H0U5ECAT:
Could anyone pull the code for the action of the back button and see if we can do a work around for it?

I've tried practically every action in the list to no avail

Hey everyone I have a problem with tubemat when I want play a video with external player it played with internal player please help :confused:
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
Open the stock player in app manager and delete defaults.

If you have another player installed you should then be asked which player to use.

You can also disable the stock player in app manager, so it will force android to use another player.

Guys I'm having a problem.I'm on latest epk2, rooted and xposed installed.I'm also using greenify.

Now the problem is,whenever I'm downloading something using browser(chrome,cm browser),after screen turns off,download automatically pauses.I have whitelisted browsers and download manager but still problem exists.

The problem is not greenify because it also happens without greenify installed.

I was on lollipop before and updated to marshmallow using ota updates.I factory reset after updating.

Edit : It does not pauses in stock internet app.

[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
Is this device running lollipop or marshmallow?

I'm afraid there's not much can be done with this tablet if it's stuck in demo mode.

The normal procedure is to install twrp then factory reset and then flash stock firmware.

However because this device has a locked bootloader you won't be able to flash anything custom such as recovery.

There's a chance that if this device is running lollipop you can try and root with kingroot then follow the procedure to convert to supersu.

With that you can install Flashfire then factory reset and install the stock firmware with that.

I see the following under Device Manager when I connect my Nexus 6P to a Windows 10 Desktop via USB C:

Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM3)

I have installed the Mi Flash Tool as above along with USB drivers and Qualcomm drivers. I am not able to flash any factory firmware, however. I receive an error stating that the "hello packet" could not be received followed my an object reference error. I have tried many versions of the Mi Flash Tool to no avail.

Any other suggestions are much appreciated.

Thanks.
[Nexus 6P General] tenfar:
power off your device with pressed the power key for 30 seconds. if the EDL mode is not in the right state .it will said send hello packet errors.

this firmware is flashed with qcom's firehose protocol. it needs the device in the right firehose state.

[MENTION=4649088]tjchuot287[/MENTION] you can download "nexus6p_fix_bricked" firmware using "Advanced Download Manager" ADM on PlayStore using its built-in browser with "desktop mode" enabled...

Worked for me...

anyway, how to enter to EDL mode?
[Nexus 6P General] catalase:
I press the power key for 30 seconds with the USB C cable attached to the computer and the computer does emit a tone as if the phone has been disconnected and the device manager continues to show the Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM3). However, I still receive read packet error.

Do you have any other suggestions on how to get it into the correct EDL mode or the correct firehose state?

UPDATE:

[0.00 COM3]:[COM3]:start flash.

[0.00 COM3]:received hello packet

[0.00 COM3]:can not found programmer file.

Hello packet is recevied. However "can not found programmer file" is returned. Programmer file prog_emmc_firehose.mbn is in the extracted contents nexus6p_fix_bricked.zip, however the Mi Flash Tool does not recognize.

Hoping you get it sorted though... :(
[Nexus 6P General] MaxNXS:
Still getting "cannot receive hello packet" error. [MENTION=540283]tenfar[/MENTION] a couple of questions:

- If the phone is detected in Device Manager as "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COMx)" do I still need to install the drivers from step 2?

- Do I need a particular combination of power, vol +/- in order to put the phone in the right EDL mode?

When I hold the power button for few seconds, the PC it is connected to makes the standard tone when a USB device is plugged/unplugged, but device manager still show the same device and Miflash still gives me the error when I flash.

Thanks for all the help BTW
[Nexus 6P General] tenfar:
1 maybe youshould use the driver i provide and check the device id of that com port ,must be 9008 pid vid .

2you can not know what state the device is in ,untill you can flash the file .

3 for some other qualcomm device .we can press buttons to enter edl mode but goolge /huawei's sbl the function is disableed .and with stock firmware you cant even enter edl with adb reboot edl

only cm or other thirdparty rom support adb reboot edl to force boot into edl mode。

This didn't work for me, however, I loaded the firmware in QFIL, and flashed as a flat build.

Of course it failed after a while, but when I unplugged my phone, it booted into the bootloader. Flashed a clean stock build through fastboot, and here I am, replying on my 6P

Forgot to mention, device was in device manager, Comm 3

9008

Just for the life of me couldn't get it to work
[Nexus 6P General] tenfar:
that's because this firmware is not for qfil. qfil need the firmware to be in unsparse format.

and this firmware i uploaded is sparse format for system userdata persist and cache .

the reason your flash with qfil and it success ,is that the other partition is flashed via qfil(xbl sbl hyp rpm tz etc.) . that means your device is in the right 9008 edl stats.

so the other peopel who failed should make sure your device is in the right state.
[Nexus 6P General] rwj5279955:
I know it wasn't built for QFIL, but I couldn't get your method to push to device.

At any rate, I bricked my 6P on Tuesday, and finally got it booted in the early hours of Saturday morning.

Much thanks given to you!

find a way to get adb connected ,only way to get boot to edl is adb reboot edl with customized kernel .the official kernel and bootloader can not enter edl with buttons and usb cable .there is another way .you will need to open your device and find two pin point and shorts it .but for now i dont know where the point located

[MENTION=540283]tenfar[/MENTION] I removed all previous Android drivers and installed drivers from post 1. I did download full image file and unzip. I did download and install Miflash from post 1 as well. I had older version of Miflash from other posts. Using methods described here, I have Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM6) in device manager. I right click and properties, details tab under hardware ID is "USB\VID_05C6&PID_9008&REV_0000". I also get these messages from log:

[0.00 COM6]:[COM6]:start flash.

[9.06 COM6]:Switch mode back

[9.07 COM6]:cannot receive hello packet,MiFlash is trying to reset status!

[9.07 COM6]:eek:bject reference not set to an instance of an object.

I hold power button 30 seconds. After five seconds device removed sound plays on PC. Red charge light flashes afterwards and stops completely several times until 30 seconds and I release. Red light continues to flash for <5 minutes then device plugged in sound plays. No display on phone. I have done this several times. Is there something I can do with EMMCDL.EXE to force things?

Hi Tenfar, thanks again for your assistance. Did not work to switch to download mode. See screens. At one time phone was detected. Maybe driver? See attached images.

Late night edit: I managed to get the phone to download. I installed Qualcomm USB drivers and QPST 2.7.422. Then I ran QFIL and set up the XML and fire hose files. After starting download, took about 3 minutes and phone rebooted. It was quirky at first, I managed to get the phone to fastboot mode and ran the update-all.bat file in the Google factory images. For some reason the charging circuit has not been working. Now I have clean installed ROM, signed into my account and charging on a rapid charger. So far in good shape. Only problem left is the warning about not able to check for secure boot. That will go away with locking bootloader or hacking the logo.bin file but for now working again.

Huge thanks to Tenfar. There were others that had posted along the way in other posts. I've been researching this for two months and it was the information that he provided that got things working. Already thanked him in the OP and sent him a donation.
