[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] BlockABoots:
Hmm i think my phone is bricked, im unable to get into the menu to update the Update.app file from the dload folder on the SD card, i cant even get the phone to switch off it just keeps restarting itself and freezing on the 'your device has been unlocked and cant be trusted' screen....

if i try and turn the phone of it just turns itself back on and freezes on that screen again

Im able to get to the Fastboot & recovery mode screen if i hold volume down button.......

and if i hold down both the volume and power buttons i get this screen....

and not the firmware update screen i should be getting.

It has been suggested that i need to use DC Phoenix program to fix the phone but will this work seeings as i cant even get the phone to boot or even switch off??

Install twrp through fastboot. Go into twrp. From there you can find a fix for your phone. You can install oeminfo and flash ROM. Good luck

Its still bricked atm

---------- Post added at 08:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:20 PM ----------

The issue im having when trying to adb to the phone is i keep getting a message saying 'FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)'.

If i type adb devices its showing no devices, its as if the PC cant detect the phone, but when i plug it into the PC it makes the USB connection sound and also if i run HiSuite it says there is no device connected but if i select the recovery option it then detects the phone but after checking says there are no available packages for my model
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] rhodondendron:
From what I get, you still can go to fastboot&rescue mode right? Just flash twrp through fastboot. No need for adb dude. (use fastboot command instead of adb command dude)

You can't connect adb if you can't boot. From the twrp you can try to fix your phone. Maybe change the oeminfo, or flash a rom, even shutdown your phone to do three button rom install. Do you get what I am saying?

Hi,

I´m on 6.0 rooted with TWRP and would like to update to Nougat without setting up my phone from scratch.

Does this work?:

Flash Stock Bootloader. (Does it have to be the exact same one from the Stock rom version i have?)

Unroot with Supersu

Receive Ota Updates?

Or how would you do it?

Thanks in advance

Hi everyone, thanks for reading.

I'm looking to step away from Google Play Services and everything else that might be spying on what I'm doing and selling that info to advertisers and god knows who else. The issue I have is that there are a few apps I can't live without. I understand that I can use APKUpdater to easily sideload apps and keep them up to date. But I have some questions before I pull the trigger.

1) Will Uber work without Google Play Services?

2) Will Spotify work without Google Play Services?

3) The s6 camera software is fantastic, is there a way I can flash my phone and keep it?

4) What's the best OS to use to get away from my privacy being compromised

I know that Spotify and uber probably will be bad news for my privacy, but I just can't live without them right now.

Many thanks in advance,

Tit Liquid

I just got the PPC-6800 through Sprint and installed the Google Maps on it. I cannot get the "My Location" feature to work. I am wondering if this is not compatible with Sprint's CDMA. Does any one have information on this?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] drew826:
I am also unable to get the new My Location feature working with Sprint CDMA and dcd's 1.6.7 ROM (not that I think this is an issue with the ROM). I have not tried with my external BT GPS receiver.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] dcd1182:
titan does not support gps yet. but it should work with the bt gps receiver.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] drew826:
As i understand it, the latest version of Google Maps has the ability to "guesstimate" your location based on fancy cell-tower triangulation, not requiring a GPS device. I assume that this is the "My Location" feature referenced. I could be wrong.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] vboyz103:
Titan is among those devices that does *not* report to cell tower, therefore, the "my location" will not work on Titan. don't quote me on this, but I think "My location" works on GSM phones.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] sudermatt:
boyz is right... it only works on GSM phones....

I remember when I was on ATT...there were all kinds of fun apps that would do stuff as you moved from one cell tower to the next....When I left my office area I would get a voice prompt "CALL YOUR WIFE AND TELL HER YOU"RE ON YOUR WAY" lot's of cool stuff like that....

But, alas...we're the CDMA redheaded step children....with SMOKIN FAST INTERNET ACCESS....keep your GSM you basta......

sorry....what were we talking about?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] drew826:
confirmed working w/ my holux gpslim240 (on dcd 1.6.8, no less).
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Dishe:
indeed, this new triangulation method thing DOES work on many cell phones, and even some CDMA ones. However, the Mogul is not one of the supported handsets at the moment.

Its totally possible tho... works the same way as Sprint Family Locator. Its just that this feature is still in beta, and they haven't gotten around to our device yet. I think I even read this on the official google support pages.

Um... yeah, that worked from day 1. Even the original 2.08 Sprint rom with the old version of Google Maps supported an attached GPS... This shouldn't be news. I've been watching that little blue dot move inside a sattelite image for kicks for over a year now on my previous PPC phones as well. :)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] drew826:
Thanks for the clarification!

There had been earlier reports of problems with BT items (specifically headsets) on dcd's roms/kitchens. Just thought I'd throw out there that my BT GPS receiver does work, for sure. It might not have ever been an issue on dcd's rom.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Foetus:
Your little blue dot moves around? In Google Maps, I seem to be able to find my position, but in order for Google Maps to refresh my location, I seem to have to turn off the GPS function (in G.M.) and turn it back on.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Sinosec:
I had a hard time finding the resolution to that, and I just stumbled upon it one day. Here's how I have my Mogul setup with my GSAT:

Settings > GPS Settings:

Program port = COM1

Hardware port = COM0

Baud rate = 115200 (I don't think this matters)

Access = Manage automatically

In GMM, GPS Settings = Set by Windows

I get about 10ft of resolution with maybe 3sec delay.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] dalvarez7:
So you are not using an external GPS receiver? I've tried it on my Mogul with no luck. From what I'm reading Sprint does not give out the cell tower info that google maps requires to use the "My Location" feature
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] defaultdotxbe:
he says hes using a GSAT

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] dalvarez7:
Well hopefully us Sprint Mogul users will have GPS soon. I know there are other threads on this already, but I'm curious if Sprint and HTC will allow the GPS to be used by third pary apps such as Google Maps. Or will they limit us to using Sprint NAV
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] sm8ckd0wn1:
Well, I have a Fuze. And my Google Maps is so innaccurate with my current location. It has my current location being waaaaaay off by a couple streets/blocks. Even when I'm in a main highway--it shows me a few streets away from the highway. I'm not sure if it has something to do with my settings or if it's just AT&T's tower sucking so bad. Anybody know??

I am currently using ressurection remix nougat rom. I always wanted double tap to wake feature. Is there a serious method to wake the device by double tapping the screen. Not the proximity method or the partly screen on method. Is there a way it can be done like OnePlus phones, Huawei phones, Lg phones.

[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aniket659:
Will try. Ty sir.
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
No, it doesn't work the same because we don't have the right type of screen... In order for DT2W to work on our device the entire screen must be powered and the tap area must be monitored while tapping in other areas ignored, unlike with AMOLED displays which only power a small section where tapping occurs (not to mention AMOLED screens use drastically less power). The end result is you can get it to work, but the device will consume 1.5%-3% of the battery per hour, so over 10 hours of it uses 15%-30% of the total battery.

If that is acceptable, it will work... but I think you can see why few developers have spent any time implementing it.
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aniket659:

When i try to wipe cache/system/data.. it says "E: Unable to mount system/data/cache, even storage.. what is the problem and what to do ?
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Concorad:
Hello,

Posting here as I have been unable to find any information about this specific issue.

I have an HTC One M9u (CID : HTC__621, TWM-TW) that changed its mind about having functional partitions in it (phone was working, then suddently rebooted, displayed the HTC logo on black screen, then went in bootloop). Phone was under Marshmallow and had no update to do at all since a while. Phone is also still S-ON and locked, although I was considering unlocking it soon to update to Nougat. Perhaps the phone is self-aware of this and decided to kill itself.

I have attempted to flash the firmware.zip with the DAT files from sdcard, extracted from 0PJAIMG_HIMA_UHL_MR hTC Asia TW 3.36.709.3.

BUT (and this is the issue), right after either the flash process should start OR right after typing the command fastboot oem rebootRUU, the phone reboots to the HTC logo on black background... and indefinitely boot loops on this "RUU Flashing" screen. The HTC logo on black bg stays for less than a second, and no progress bar has the time to show up at all.

The root cause is the following: partitions such as /cache, /preload and /data cannot be mounted (Invalid Argument) as he cannot find the device node for these partitions. Bootloader, Download mode and Recovery mode (all stock) work, ADB sideload and Fastboot work, but wiping /data and /cache only result in the same errors. This is why I attempt to flash again, but I can't because it boot loops the RUU flash mode.

How could the partitions be repaired for the flashing to work? What solutions do you see?

I thank you in advance for your help, please feel free to ask for more details on the issue if you need.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivadow:
Have you tried the htc_fastboot.exe?.

More than likely, seeing as the phone randomly rebooted, it'll be bricked.

Type fastboot getvar all and see if you get a normal response from the phone. If you get lots of partition errors then you might want to dig out the details of your warranty, if you have one.

There seems to be a spate of recent posts with the same issue of a stock phone suddenly thinking it's a toaster. I'm starting to think that some phones may have been shipped with faulty chips or giving up under the stress of what is considered to be one of the "hottest" (temperature) phones on the market.

(bootloader) cid: HTC__621
all:

Response from the phone appears mainly normal for these modes.

I contacted HTC, someone is supposed to get back to me to tell me how the phone could be taken in charge in Europe or if it has to be sent to Asia where they can handle this one. Still don't know if this will be possible though, awaiting for a call from this.

Yet, the fact a phone can software nuke itself is strange on its own. The M9 was not hot at that moment, only a week before I was doing some VR tests with it with a heavy live broadcast, which did turn it into a real toster. But no issue occured at all aside this.

The only strange thing this phone could do is, if the phone shuts down by empty battery, it would always reset the Sense Android's default settings (ringtones, help tooltips, etc.) but cause no data loss.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivadow:
"software nuke itself". What "I" think happened there is your cache partition was on its way out for a bit before it actually give up.

The responses from the phone seem normal. Can you clear the /cache and /data from recovery (factory reset)?.

Did you make sure you're flashing the stock firmware with htc_fastboot.exe, NOT the 'normal' fastboot.exe?.

I couldn't tell you if it IS an overheating issue or a system bug but something is a-rye for sure!.

Aaaaah... Not sure what command I ran with which one now, made many attempts. What is sure is that typing htc_fastboot oem rebootRUU makes the phone

bootloop

on the HTC RUU Flashing screen. It does not attempt to connect via USB and accept the next command that would be at least fastboot flash zip firmware.zip, it bootloops indefinitely.

Lastly, I inserted the extracted firmware.zip (checked for the proper CID), renamed 0PJAIMG.zip and placed it into the SD card. Many mount errors as well, such as :

[...]
E:failed to mount /devlog (Invalid Argument).. try emmc mount
E:Can't find device node for mount point /devlog
E: failed to set up expected mounts for install; aborting
Installation aborted.

Up to now, I haven't figured out what ADB Sideload or flashing command could finally be working, either with a rom.zip or a firmware.zip. It seems the whole partition layout would need fixing.
