[HTC One A9] revcp:
Here's my issue. Some time back I installed TWRP in order to install the Pixel Launcher as a system app. When Nougat came out I tried to install the ota. No go. So I installed a stock recovery and relocked the bootloader. Still no luck. I've tried every way possible to install Nougat: ruu.exe, from sd card, flash through adb. Nothing.

I think my stock recovery is problematic. When I try and get into it through the bootloader I get the dreaded red triangle with exclamation mark. So I've tried two ways of extracting the recovery.img from the Nougat update. I've used process monitor and the trick of looking in %temp% after starting the ruu.exe. I get the correct size zip, but when I unzip, whether through 7zip or winzip, I just get a series of 22 smaller zips and have no idea where in all those the recovery image is hiding.

Anyone have any ideas what I'm doing wrong or where I can download the nougat recovery image for sprint?
[HTC One A9] alray:
The recovery isn't related to anything in the RUU process, it doesn't matter what version you have. If you want to upgrade from marshmallow to Nougat using a RUU you'll first need to update the firmware so your phone can read HTC's new digital signature, without doing that you'll always get signature errors when flashing the ruu. You can find the sprint RUU and firmware in my RUU collection thread (general section).

FYI, ruu are encrypted. You can't simply unzip these files. You need to decrypt using the correct decryption key.
[HTC One A9] revcp:
Thank you. It's been a while since I've dived down into a phone. Is there a step by step on how to update the firmware?
[HTC One A9] revcp:
So, tried to update the firmware. Here's the result (after doing the "fastboot oem rebootRUU" step):

Sorry I thought your phone was S-OFF, this firmware package is decrypted so it can't be flashed on a S-ON phone. If you can find the 2.18.651.2 ota zip file, you can extract the signed firmware from it. (signed version can be flashed with S-ON). You should be able to get the ota file from your phone by selecting "download and install later". Once downloaded you can transfer the ota from your phone to your computer and extract the firmware.zip file from it using winrar / 7zip.
[HTC One A9] revcp:
There's another thing I don't understand about this.

The FAQ directions in https://xdaforums.com/one-a9/general/wip-ruu-htc-one-a9-t3240344 say to " rename the RUU zip file '2PQ9IMG.zip'". But there is no RUU zip file. There is RUU.EXE and the firmware zip file.
[HTC One A9] alray:
These instructions are for flashing ruu in zip format. how to flash.exe ruu explained just below.

.zip ruu can be extracted from the .exe version if needed (on some pc, a .exe ruu can be problematic, e.g. you double click the file to launch the process and nothing happen...)

---------- Post added at 11:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:51 AM ----------

Btw if you can share your firmware.zip extracted from the OTA it would be really nice for other Sprint users in the same situation. I wasn't able to find the Sprint ota zip file anywhere yet.
[HTC One A9] revcp:
That's what I need! Thanks! Any idea where the dl is saved on the phone? I should have noted that I was s-on. Sorry.
[HTC One A9] alray:
For the M9 it was in data/data/com.htc.updater/files I guess it should be similar for the A9. Maybe someone else could confirm this...
[HTC One A9] revcp:
Well, I'm dead in the water. I've tried every way possible to dl the ota, but when I go to /android/data/com/htc.updater/files there is nothing there. A 2.18.651.2 ota zip file is nowhere to be found. If anyone has that for spring I would love to get my hands on it. :)
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vientito:
I am not too clear about the usage of pit file in odin. I am reading that the tar file usually contains a csc portion which already embeds the pit file. However, i am also reading that you can explicitly specify the pit file and check repartitioning to start a clean slate. My question is that if csc already contains the pit why the need to specify it explicitly?

I think in my case i may have to clean the structure much more thoroughly since i have trouble doing a data partition wipe in recovery mode. It is not doing a data wipe at all.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mad Cucumber:
Hello!

I have a S5 with CM13 and the CM recovery.

I have tried to wipe everything and install LineageOS 14.1.

I got the "failed to verify signature" error.

I cannot disable signature verification because that doesn't exist in CM recovery (or does it??).

I want to update my recovery to TWRP's and try to install LineageOS again.

Can I simply use their official app? Or would it be an issue since the current recovery is CM ?

Thanks !

[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] te36:
ebay LON-L29C636B156, t-mobile USA. (upgrade to B156 yesterday, did not change anything in respect to this issue).

I can get the 4G on the home screen, but never the 4G LTE symbol. And i do not get the VoLTE menu option. I called up t-mobile support and they said that whether or not its a phone bought from them or not, LTE would get enabled if the phone supports it. So i am starting to suspect that my phone (or rather the 636 taiwanese firmware ?) does not really support/enable LTE.

My t-mobile SIM does give me 4G LTE symbol in a colleagues Honor 8 from Best Buy, T-mobile USA does not sell that. Which seems to support what t-mobile support told me. His ATT SIM does also not give me 4G LTE indication on my phone.

Given how the specs of the HW all claim LTE support for the mate 9 pro, i wonder what my best diagnostics are to determine whether or not the firmware actually enables it.

Reboot phone without any SIM inserted: "LTE cell info" app: "3G mobile technologies": Yes, "4G mobile technologies: No", "Max speeds": HSPA - aka: seems to indicate that phone does not support LTE. Same with SIM inserted, no change whether i enable/disable 4G in the system.

"AntennaPict" app, with SIM inserted, 4G enabled says LTE: -106 dbm, with 4G disabled, it says HSPA+.

*sigh*. So the diagnostics apps are inconsistent.

Was wondering what others with Mate 9 pro see.

Not sure what else i could try. Go to european firmware via Funky and see if thats any better ? (whats the number for european firmware ?).

Thanks!
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] rednav:
Its part of the upcoming software update. Same was enabled in the mate 9.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] onslaught86:
It absolutely supports LTE. 4G is synonymous with LTE outside of the US. It won't attach to LTE networks without a SIM inserted because of the way authentication onto those networks is performed. The second app is correct.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] gm007:
You can check network info in about phone.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] phoneman108:
Bumping here as I have the same issue as the OP.

Anyone figured how to get LTE and VoLTE enabled on LON-L29 on T-Mobile USA...

Also, how do we get OTA update while in the US as I believe my Mate 9 Pro is an Asian Model (LON-L29636) ?

Any help here guys/gals would be super helpful. I love the Mate 9 Pro, but without these 2 **important** features it is going to collect dust on my shelf.

Thanx

Delete. Sorry answered while I was drinking and didn't read properly
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] Leighm0:
Problem is you have a C636 model, which is for Asia region, not for USA. Unfortunately there is no model available under US? This was the same issue I face here in Australia - there is no AU model sold here.

From what I have seen there are only these models for the Mate 9 Pro:

Mate 9 Pro, Europe Version (LON-L29C432)

Mate 9 Pro, Asia Version (LON-L29C636)

Mate 9 Pro, Middle East Version (LON-L29C185)

Mate 9 Pro, Non-Region-Branded (LON-L29C900)

Mate 9 Pro, China Version (LON-AL00C00)

And from what I have read on XDA - there is a "cust" partition, which contains the VOLTE configuration files, which are specific to that regions Telco providers, so not having any USA configuration - the VOLTE options do not work or display to enable them... This is a major flaw with how Huawei have configured the mobile device, from what I read on forums these files are under 1mb in size, so why they have not included all regional files on each device no matter the location is beyond me.... I am stuck without VOLTE option here in Australia due to this fact, and will most likely never get it since they are not selling the device here.

The C900 being "Non-Region-Branded", sounds like this may (or may not) be a winner to rebrand to.. i'm wondering if it contains configuration for all regions!

LTE here tho is called "4G" and I am connecting with 4G and 4G+, and get the data speeds of that, but not calling (it drops down to HSPA+ when I make a call).

I have read on here that Mate 9 owners have been able to backup the cust partition and then restore it using TWRP on other devices, or most people have re-branded to their correct region.. this not possible since there is no USA or AU region build for M9 Pro.

What app do I freeze to stop the "Android System Update" pop-up from popping up? I can't seem to find it.

Thanks for any replies. I can't seem to find it through a Google Search and want to make sure I don't freeze anything I shouldn't be freezing.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnsgone:
The effectiveness and the apps you want to freeze depend alot upon root.

If not rooted all you can really do is go to the system update apps and delete the data, clear the caches and disable the one you're allowed too.

I may well be wrong but that's all I've found being without root again.

Look up the debloater program for root if you have root and it specifies exactly what you want to do, while providing a nice clean utility to do so.

[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] zerozed99:
Mine just got delivered today. On a whim, I decided to sell my Nexus 6P last Friday and ordered a 128gb 3T on Saturday. The 6P was a good phone, but 1.5 years old and due to be orphaned by Google in Sept. I needed to sell soon while the 6P still had some resale value, and the 3T beats the Pixel specs in all the ways that matter to me, so that's what brought me over. The 3T is one of the most powerful phones currently on the market (if not THE most powerful phone). They shaved a few corners (speakers and screen resolution come to mind, but screen is still very good), but the processor+ram are an awesome combo. The 3T isn't certified for Google Daydream so if that's important to you take it into consideration. Since your S3 is busted I assume you have a spare that will tide you over? If so, then maybe wait it out a couple of months. If not (or if the spare is garbage) then the 3T is a great phone with superior specs.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] sriharshasv:
I believe that it completely makes sense to buy this phone.

Firstly, it has only been 4 months since this phone was released. And 4 months is the perfect time to evaluate how good the phone is, while it's still considered a newly released phone.

Besides, I don't think there'll be any great change in tech between the 3t and 4/5. It'll just be a slightly better version of the 3t, with slightly faster processor, slightly higher RAM (maybe).

Because of the very low prices, OnePlus isn't very great with their R/D. All their previous phones reflect that. They have always picked a safe design and put good hardware in it.

I think that once phones like iPhone 8 are released, the innovations they come up with become a thing. Like wireless charging?, Fingerprint scanner embedded in three screen?.

Till then, I think the 3t will be a great phone without anything lacking in it.

Given you'll have to wait for the 4/5, and also, you don't know how it'll turn out to be, my suggestion would be to go for the 3t.

For y pay for a OnePlus 3 or 3T and the spec you get... I really don't understand why anyone would not buy one. TBH I don't understand why anyone would pay the premium for a 3T when you can pick-up a 3 for less and the spec difference is so minimal. But that's just my opinion :)

You'll need some system color changing utility, like SKTools, or UITweaker. Look for items called something like:

"list color left 1", "list color left 2", "list color right 1", "list color right 2"

or

"left of a gradient listview", "left of a gradient listview (interlalced)", "right of a gradient listview", "right of a gradient listview (interlalced)"

And set both left and both right colors to be equal to each other - then you'll have no horizontal nines, or at least close - then you'll still have horizontal lines, but they won't be as visible.

Of go to WM5 color registry tweaks in XDA wiki and change the colors in registry by hand.
