I have android Tv box ....Mecool M8S pro...2gb ver (rooted). Problem is Jio Tv from play store is not supported. But back up restore from my Galaxy Note 4 by Titanium Back up works just fine. But within every 3 days they use to update it and the previous ver doesn't work any more. Box is running Android 7.x. Is there any way to fix this ? I think if I can spoof my device as note 4 and update the app from play store problem can be solve...Please somebody help me.
[Android General] MartinC#1:
So I updated to "Shield Tablet" however the playstore still states "device not supported" for Doom 3 so there is some other entry that is being examined not in build.prop or device_name

I'm running Android 7.1

does it work on android 10 ?

since i have changed build.prop and it doesnt worked any more as it was working on android 9...
[Android General] Darbender:
worked for me running miui 11 android 10

Just change the command:

adb shell settings put global device_name "<DEVICE NAME>"

by:

adb shell settings put global device_name <DEVICENAME>

example if you want to change your model to Mi 9T Pro:

adb shell settings put global device_name Mi\ 9T\ Pro

In my case i did not have the ro.product.model line on the build.prop file

i had ro.product.system.model

so i added at the end of the file the line:

ro.product.model=Mi 9T Pro
[Android General] MaDMaxiBo:
i have changed buildprop but device model is not changed... even in adb it says Mi 9 Lite but in device properties it is cc9 :S

what can i do ?
[Android General] domi1066:
[MENTION=5807791]MaDMaxiBo[/MENTION]

you have to add the line: ro.product.model=phone name in build.prop (system and vendor) and adb shell ...
[Android General] MaDMaxiBo:
thanks.

added lines and changed build.prop files in system and vendor too. it shows name as Mi 9 Lite as i want but i cant do the third step.

adb shell. when i try it says : Argument expected to be 'default' :confused:

adb shell settings get global device_name works and shows name as =MI CC 9

adb shell settings put global device_name "Mi 9 Lite" -doesnt work

adb shell settings put global device_name Mi 9 Lite -doesnt work

adb shell settings put global device_name 'Mi 9 Lite' -doesnt work
[Android General] domi1066:
you can try : adb shell settings put global device_name Mi\ 9\ Lite

it should be working.
[Android General] MaDMaxiBo:
thanks it worked.

before, i should enable the setting in developer options: USB Debugging (Security settings) :good:

Sellers, you may be at the mercy of a dishonest swappa buyer and there is nothing that can be done about it.

I decided to get rid of my LG G4 and put it up for sale on swappa. I babied the phone. I even used wireless charging at nights, swapped batteries and paid attention to the usb cable as to not damage the usb port. The phone never bootlooped and the usb port was still very tight. Other aspects of the phone's physical condition were good too but that doesn't play into this topic.

I put the phone for sale and was actually surprised that it sold as I posted it higher than many phones that were currently for sale. I was happy and shipped the phone in it's original box and all accessories.

I received no feed back from the seller for a week and a half then bam.. I get a complaint that the the USB port was broken and that the phone bootlooped.

Of course I refunded after got the recieved the brick but the usb port was very damaged and the phone just bootlooped.

I am quite certain that they did an Motherboard swap and there is nothing a seller can do to protect themselves from this.

Anyone got any ideas? And apologies if this has already been answered.

What did you use to glue the new covers back on? Any additional adhesive?
[One (M8) General] sachinaik:
The same can be achieved by using a tooth brush and lightly brushing on the speaker grills...

Over time sweat and dust blocks the speaker grills... just use a fine brush.

My m8 speaker volume was so bad, before cleaning, that I couldn't receive calls Outdoors without headset...

No offense to OP...
[One (M8) General] ieatabiscuit:
They come off pretty easy with a heat source like what's been said, but I wanted to add the note that the grills are rather brittle, and flimsy. Don't do like I did and accidentally break it in half while cleaning it. I had mine held to a table, and was rubbing it with rubbing alcohol to remove the adhesive, and it caught on the cloth, and got pulled back toward my hand (that was holding it down) folding it in half causing it to immediately break. I got careless, so maybe someone can benefit from my screw-up.

The covers come with built-in adhesive.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] harisyks:
Hello guys,

I just bought a brand new A5 2017 from a carrier centre and it restarts on an almost hourly basis. It works for maybe 1 or 2 hours normal, and then restarts by itself. When it boots up, I get messages of random apps crashing and then it restarts again. Once it restarted within minutes of each boot. I don't know the reason for this.

I have tried hard reset, soft reset, even flashing an AP firmware from Germany (I'm from Bosnia and Herzegovina), but with no luck. The phone just restarts when it wants.

Also tried safe mode, the same problem persists.

Any advice?
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] mcvisster:
Try stock recovery and do factory reset. Vol. up, home and power buton. Btw. i think they are selling sh.t to eastern Europe (im from Croatia). I had bootloop on second day with A5 (2017). CPU was hot as hell. Recovery did not work, only desplaying error. But after 4-5 reset it came to normal. I was sending error log to samsung, they never answerd.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] harisyks:

Any news?
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] harisyks:
Yes. After a gazillion factory resets (soft and hard), I performed a repair (initialization, if that's what the Smart Switch calls it) of the phone through the Smart Switch. It booted up and all was well until it restarted again. Next thing that I did was: wipe everything via a hard reset, and then repair the phone through Smart Switch. This was about 2-3 hours ago. Did run into 2 crashes (Google Play Services and Chrome) but I think it was related to the syncing, but no restarts and I hope not in the future.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] mcvisster:
Im glad to hear that. That was a softweare problem.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] harisyks:
Just to give you an update. Unfortunately, the phone restarted again today, so I returned it to the carrier. They said they will send it for testing, and that I will most likely get a new device. Seems that it actually wasn't a software problem; my guess is that EMMC has a fault.

You COULD be stuck with a MTK tablet; the only MTK devices getting any love are phablets and phones for the most part (and those are mostly in the MEAR: Middle East, Asia, and Russia). My Lenovo A7-30F (not the A3000 or A3300) has two recoveries (one each for KitKat and Lollipop) and no custom ROMs at all; my GNex (which is far older) has more ROMs just for KitKat (let alone Lollipop, Marshmallow, and Nougat).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] iBolski:
The LG G3 was nice because there was an exploit (and it hasn't been patched to this day) that allows you to have what is called a "bumped" TWRP so you can flash all sorts of custom ROMs, including AOSP-based ROMs, as well as custom kernels. That was a nice feature of the LG G3 on VZW. Not sure why they never patched the exploit. I do miss those days, but I did stop rooting and such because I could still get really good battery life. Plus, Android Pay was a nice feature I liked using and now with the S7, I absolutely love Samsung Pay. Makes life so much easier when I check out not having to pull out my wallet, fumble and find the credit/debit card, swipe, etc. Just tap and pay! Nice!
