[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Henrald:
So I bought a used Moto E 1st Gen to use while my Nexus 5X is being repaired, but I've found it to be almost unusable, thanks to its limited internal storage. It can't even update all the built in apps without running out of room, and none of them are transferable to my 32GB micro SD card! Installing new apps is very difficult, and sometimes impossible.

I think that part of the trouble is that it's running Android 5.1, which I believe significantly impaired the ability to make use of the external memory (right?).

I was hoping to use this phone temporarily as a backup device, and as such, I really just wanted it pure and simple and easy. The phone seems fine and the battery life is great, but I can't put all my apps on it.

So what's the most pragmatic way of dealing with this problem? Can I flash an older, stock ROM without having to unlock the bootloader? If I unlock it and flash a custom ROM, won't the later ones suffer this problem too? Would I be best using an older ROM from the days before Lollipop when external memory was easier to take advantage of?

Thanks wise sages, George

See friend, if you don't want to unlock your bootloader then you must flash the stock KitKat ROM as you can use your memory card to move the apps. But you can only move the apps which can be moved to external and if you have apps which can't be moved to external, you may run out of storage.

If you unlock your bootloader and flash Custom ROM which is MM or higher then you can use your memory card as adoptable storage. Using Sd Card as adopted storage would not let you run out of storage and is future proof as heavy apps moves automatically into adopted storage
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Henrald:
Thank you, I hadn't heard of the adopted storage thing, because there's no SD card slot in the Nexus. It's exactly what I needed. I've installed the latest Lineage nightly and its working wonderfully, so far.
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ankit_29:
To make adoptable storage insert a card into your phone running MM or higher it will ask you if you want to use the SD card as a portable device or Internal. By selecting ‘Internal’ you are now moving to the new Adoptable Storage function and the SD card will be formatted. Make sure you backup your data on card and you must use a high speed(class 10) memory card.

Hello! I need some help with my HTC One M8 Sprint.

Im from Russia, phone work well about 2 years with full gsm network support.

After turn off due batery disharge SIM Locked again. I flash Sense rom and make sim unlock but my phone unable to conect to the my operator network.

I read here that sometimes GSM bands can be reset. I install QPST, made a backup of NVRAM and folow this instruction https://xdaforums.com/sprint-htc-one-m8/general/enabling-3g-umts-countries-t2847461.

After this my phone start to see Russian mobile operators, but can not register on them.

I tried chage my SIM card and tried SIM card of another operator, dont work. Just cant register in network.

I think that in addition to the band something else reset in the radio module firmware.

I put the phone in the service center, but the diagnostic for mechanical damage did not give any results, everything is fine.

I attach all avaible info from DFS app and fastboot and proof that my phone scaning networks, maybe someone can help.

If anyone has a backup of NVRAM, please, chare it with me so i can compare parameters.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Vcek:
OK I will try to help you, I'm currently busy. For now hide the picture with your imei.

BTW which ROM are you using?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Korshun:
Ok, I started from the beginning.

Flash 4.25.651.14 firmware.

Install 4.25.651.14 RUU.

In this tread some guy said that he cannot connect to the network on MM RUU and 4.25.651.14 RUU helped him.

Make Factory Reset in fastboot and radio reset through the command ##786#.

Then I make SIM Unlock with this method.

Intall InserctCoin ROM that figure in instruction and go on. SIM unlocked sucessful and GSM operators became available when scanning.

But still can not connect to the network :(

[Moto 360] Ting-Kuei:
I am trying to send the accelerometer data from my moto360 to laptop (or PC).

I know that it is OK to send data to smartphone via SDK, however, I have no idea how to send data to PC or laptop. :confused:

Anyone can help?

Thanks much
[Moto 360] Eddimann:
Seeing as the watch's bluetooth connection is tethered, so to speak, to the phone, I believe you would have develop an app that relays the data from the phone to the laptop. This can be achieved either via bluetooth connection from the phone or WiFi. In other words, you'd have to use the phone as a "middle man" for the data.

Just to clarify even further:

Watch ----Via BT ----> Phone ------Via BT or Wifi---------> laptop

The "easiest" way would be to send the data to the app and have the app send it further to a server. If you want it display it in "realtime" I'd recommend pushing the data in to a realtime database like Firebase or something similar, and then have a webapp on the laptop to display the data. It won't be in perfect "1 to 1" sync with the data from the watch, but as far I know, it's the only viable one. This would enable you to track the data even when your not in bluetooth range of the laptop.

Hey,

First of all thanks to all the support from you.

I want to switch back to MIUI 8 developer, but I want a good battery backup( At-least 1.5 days).

I want to ask that do custom kernels really make any difference?

I know that CPU Governors may affect performance and battery life, but will custom kernel really work?

Can someone tell what is the difference (Idle drain, SOT, etc. ) between the battery lives with stock MIUI kernel and with Custom Kernel.

[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] anderbytes:
How did you do it??

I've bought my ZEN3 (520) and it had Android 6. I managed to root it, but I was forced to unlock bootloader to do it (don't remember if official or unofficial unlock).

Now I removed root, tried reinstalling stock boot partition, etc...etc... but nothing works! It always trips at the dm-verity check at boot time, and it says it will be shut down in 10 seconds, and it really shuts down! :((
[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] ekha24:
Why u tried to remove root? for installing nougat? If u want to update to nougat, u dont need remove root, just flash it.

Can you access recovery mode? If yes, just copy the rom on your sd card, before u flash the rom, u must flash boot.img inside rom.zip and stock recovery same as rom ver.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] anderbytes:
The problems are: I don't know what are the correct boot.img and recovery to flash.

Is there any detailed tutorial? With links to download or something?

How can I tell I'm flashing the correct files?
[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] ekha24:
For boot.img and stock recovery : https://mega.nz/#F!ok0V0RIA!5WKtHe98opzjVI3NPbM7Ww

(ze520kl=z017d)

For stock firmware : https://www.asus.com/Phone/ZenFone-3-ZE520KL/HelpDesk_Download/

If u want flash the latest avaible stock firmware, u must extract firmware.zip u downloaded, and flash boot.img and recovery.img from it. If u cant find recovery.img inside it, just flash latest recovery.img avaible from mega (its for nougat too). Put firmware ur downloaded on sd card.

-reboot your phone to fastboot mode, connect your phone to pc and flash boot.img and recovery.img

-after that go to recovery>install update from sd card and choose the .zip

Did anyone get this update?
[One (M8s) General] thomskipsp:
Yep, here as well. I have a unlocked M8s. Update is small, contains only system improvements....

*Update*

Doesn't update the security level, is still @ 1 oct. 2016. Not sure which improvements have been made...
[One (M8s) General] bgoedhart:
I haven't received the update yet. Probably because it's Vodafone branded :P
[One (M8s) General] Teom@n:
I don't think so because I installed this rom(0PKVIMG_M8_QL_UL_M60_SENSE70_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.1_Radio_1.0.U20410.1@60201_20.05_018_F_release_479349_combined_signed.zip). This update appeared after installation it.
[One (M8s) General] bgoedhart:
I mean my phone is Vodafone branded. I'm on version 2.11.161.1.
[One (M8s) General] Felyks:
I received the update today. However, yours appears to be much larger in size. Mine was just about 24MB.

[One (M8s) General] kruc Ire:
There is an update notification. 2.21.401 (previously I'm at 2.20.401).

I have downloaded it. Does anyone know where it is stored now after download ( I selected install later)

The phone biggest problem it has been getting hot to touch as it is playing youtube videos. It then occasionally gives an overheat warning. i am hoping this will be fixed after update.
[One (M8s) General] Teom@n:
I don't know why mine was 638Mb. It is strange.
[One (M8s) General] kruc Ire:
I found my update a fota inside the htc sense region of my /data/data directory

It was about 24-26 MB.
[One (M8s) General] kruc Ire:
What does the update do? I tried unzipping but it cant be unzipped. I didn't try everything . I really nervous am made by ota updates.

I want to know everything it will be changing. I operate by "if it ain't broke don't fix it" adage... and it ain't really broke in any way.

I haven't tried everything yet. I probably wont install it since the phone is working well. What if it screws my phone so I can't boot twrp or something.
[One (M8s) General] thomskipsp:
Not sure. I installed the update, didn't notice any change. Probably a good idea to install though...
[One (M8s) General] kruc Ire:
Maybe if they were prepping our phone for a nougat upgrade I would. Anyone heard anything like that?
[One (M8s) General] thomskipsp:
Don't get your hopes too high up, HTC didn't announce Nougat for the M8 nor the M8s....
[One (M8s) General] kruc Ire:
As far as I know they only managed to release Nougat for the M9. Ten still doesn't have a legit Nougat in my family. We have a Ten and still no Nougat OTA.
[One (M8s) General] kruc Ire:
I am corrected today. I just found out the ten does have the Nougat now.
[One (M8s) General] Teom@n:
I don't wait anything from HTC anymore. This phone will be last HTC for me.
[One (M8s) General] bgoedhart:
To clarify, is this update for M8s or the M8? Because you are posting in M8s forum.

[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
Depends on what root solution you're currently using. If you're using systemless SuperSU Magisk won't replace it, but use that instead. In that case you'll have to first remove SuperSU. If you're using any other root Magisk will try to replace it with MagiskSU (no guarantees). Also, I believe LG devices need a "bump" script, or something like that... I also believe this has been added to the Magisk code, but is not yet in the official release. If v11.1 doesn't work, you could try the unofficial beta snapshot: https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/unofficial-magisk-v10-beta-built-t3521901

And just to clarify: Magisk is not an alternative to Xposed... You can do certain things with Magisk that can also be done with Xposed, but they work in completely different ways. Think of Magisk as a "file injector" where it can replace files and props on your device at boot, completely systemless. And along the same kind of thinking Xposed is a "code injector" that can alter the code of a running app. This can also be made systemless, by tools such as Magisk. [MENTION=4470081]topjohnwu[/MENTION] have hinted at ideas about making Magisk work as a "code injector", but this is purely on the idea stage at the moment and is probably quite far away in a possible future.

Take a look in the release thread and the Magisk All-In-One Wiki (both stickied at the top). They contain a lot of useful information. There's also a lot of information in the support thread, which is pretty big by now so the search function is a good tool there.

I've also collected a bunch of tips and tricks for Magisk installation and troubleshooting, and as well for Magisk Hide if you want to use that:

[Magisk] TewSlo:
so what method did you use to root? I can't find any documentation anywhere
[Magisk] BrothelWaffles:
Did you ever get this figured out? Kinda curious if I can do this without wiping.
[Magisk] Ortem1UP:
I almost did but I got stuck on bootloop. The only way I can think it might work would be to return to stock. Follow Messi's method for Twrp & Root. But at the point of root. U can stick with Chainfires SuperSU, or use the latest MagiskSU by Topjohnwu (would recommend)

Then just reboot the device and follow TopJohnwus method of installing Magisk.

But don't take my word for it. It's just and idea. I've yet to try it Cuz I haven't really had time. So it's up to you if u wanna give it a shot.

Or u can wait for me to try it. I was thinking of doing it 2nite. It's 930pm pst

I say around 11-12 I will be giving it another go. Wtv my results are. I will report back. Wish me luck
[Magisk] Ortem1UP:
SUCCESS

I got Magisk to work on My LG Aristo as of today. It was just as I thought.

I went back to stock. Then I followed Messi's method to get TWRP installed. Since I already had my bootloader unlocked. I didnt need to worry about it. Just flashed TWRP via adb as Messi says to do. Unplugged my device and pulled out the battery to turn of my device. Put it back in and rebooted into recovery. Went to wipe and formatted data. Once it was done. Went back and went into Reboot. Rebootted back into recovery. Plugged my phone to my laptop, enabled mtp and transferred both the no-verity-opt-encrypt-2.1.zip file and magiskzip file. Didn't need SuperSu seeing as how Magisk alone roots the device. Flashed the no-verity-opt-encrypt-2.1.zip first and then Magiskzip. Latest version is V13.2 right now. It automatically installs Magisk Manager since it isn't available on the Play Store anymore. Rebooted system. Waited for my phone to start. Set it up and immediately tested it. And Magisk is 100% fully functional with all green checkmarks. Hope it helps. Maybe I should create a thread. Would be my first one. Don't really know how to tho. But I'll try.

Also, here are the snapshots of proof and my magisk settings to get them to pass.

Use the full uninstall provided within the supersu app and restart your phone, then go into recovery and flash magisk.
[Magisk] azizLIGHT:
Hi Ortem1UP, I get the jist of the method but not sure what the dm-verity parts are. Can you explain what this is for, and where are you getting it and what version? Is dm-verity the same as no-verity-opt-encrypt-2.1.zip that messi describes in his twrp tutorial for the Aristo?
[Magisk] Ortem1UP:
Oh wow. So sorry. I hadn't noticed my mistake. Yes, the dm verity I accidentally mentioned is actually the no-verity-opt-encrypt zip that Messi mentions. I'll fix that mistake. Wouldn't want ppl to get confused. Thanks for that. BTW, the same method also works with the new Magisk V13.2. Just an FYI :)
[Magisk] Ortem1UP:
I apologize for the very late reply.

Actually, no I haven't. Which modules did you install?
[Magisk] azizLIGHT:
Ortem, while I was waiting for your reply, I went ahead and flashed the magisk zip (13.2) without flashing no-verity and I was able to get it to work. I have all green checks as well with SafetyNet. So the no-verity-opt-encrypt zip file may not be needed for magisk to work and to get root/safetynet pass
[Magisk] Ortem1UP:
No way. Seriously? Does SafetyNet always pass? Because for me it does at times and other times it doesn't. I wonder if the no-verity-opt-encrypt.zip is to blame? I shall try it your way and see how that goes. Thanks for the heads up. Guess the zip is only needed for SuperSu. Not Magisk.
[Magisk] azizLIGHT:
Yeah I'm actually passing SafetyNet sometimes as well and sometimes not. I can't figure out why that's the case. In any case, I don't think the no-verity-opt-encrypt.zip is to blame given since we're both experiencing the same symptoms!
[Magisk] Ortem1UP:
Oh OK. For a second I thought it was the zip file.

Anywho. IDK about you but ever since the latest update. I haven't had a single problem with Safety Net. It passes every time now. I hope your getting the same results?
