Do you have google and samsung cloud backups enabled? If so most of your data will be restored when you setup the repaired phone

Man f**k Samsung man. I can't believe my S7 Edge got hard bricked on its own,Never rooted,never flashed any custom rom or anything...I lost all my vacation photos which was the worst part. On top of that,my Mom's brand freaking new Galaxy Note8 is facing bootloader exception too,which was the earlier stage of my S7 Edge getting hard bricked.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] km8j:
So it looks like the G6 has an awesome button at the bottom to pull down the notification shade so you dont have to stretch all the way to the top of the device. How about moving the notification shade to the bottom? This would make a lot more sense given how big phones are getting. Really the only reason you stretch to the top of the phone is to get to the quick toggles or notifications up top. Would be great if this came from the bottom to alleviate this.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MigoMujahid:
Hi

Well, that requires a software modification, but if you want that button, it can be easily added if your rom supports Navigation Bar, you can add custom button and set function to pull down notification, and even if it doesn't you can add it with xposed and gravity box app.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] MJPByron:
I thought I could flash the China Qualcomm recovery version of TWRP recovery to my phone. After rooting and installing the official TWRP app, I flashed the heroqlte firmware img and rebooted. I then got the screen saying the phone was locked and to call my carrier.

I hard-shutdown the phone and booted back into the phone successfully. I have not yet tried booting into recovery.

Is there a way I can re-flash stock recovery?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] Ph0nysk1nk:
It's (Surprisingly) not hard bricked, meaning you should be Able to get into download mode. If you're able to, just flash the stock firmware through Odin like normal.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] MJPByron:
The only thing is that this is an SM-G930AZ. I can't seem to find the stock firmware anywhere. I was able to at least get Odin to recognize the device, and even Kies can recognize it. It just sat at 0% for installing firmware in Kies.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] Ph0nysk1nk:
My boy, doing a quick Google search brought me here. I don't know which firmware your phone was last on BUT, if it's wrong it will just fail to flash. Try the firmware posted here.

[Xiaomi Mi Note Pro] MchaelPT:
To all experts,

I try to flash my Mi note pro since days without success. I have unlocked my bootloader, installed TWRP. First problem is, I'm not able to flash every TWRP recovery. I managed only the TWRP from cofface. The version from Ivan didn't work for me. I made it from my Linux laptop with fastboot. The main problem is, that I can only flash Xiaomi.eu ROMs. Ivans ROMs or the lineageis testrom ends that the phone starts with the mi logo and after seconds, it turns of.

Need ur support for that. Thx.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] mika91:
Hi,

I'll received my XC this week, and I'd like to root it.

I don't want a custom ROM, but just a stock one with xposed and remove some bloatwares.

Here are my needs:

keep DRM

latest stock rom

twrp

untouched system partition

easy OTA

XC Genesis kernel

xposed + module

Do you think it possible to achieve such a configuration?

How-to?

Thanks

EDIT: I'll update this post to make it an HOW-To for futures users with same questions.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] SXUsr:
Assuming you're unable to unlock your BL the steps are as follows...

Flash back to 198.

Backup your TA.

Unlock your BL

Update to 311

Extract kernel - ftf/sin/elf

Run elf through Rootkernel_v5.23 - (In cmd prompt window - rootkernel kernel.elf boot.img)

Create DK ftf with Rootkernel_v5.23 (In cmd prompt window - flash_dk TA-19022017.img DK.ftf)

Flash new boot.img

Flash TWRP.img

Flash Super User zip

Flash DK.ftf with Flashtool 9.22

...and that should be it.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] DannyWilde:
Latest stock Rom + xposed will not be possible...
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] ondrejvaroscak:
Forget about OTA when rooted...
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] mika91:
I though that using xposed leave the system partition untouched, so OTA updates are possible...
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] ondrejvaroscak:
OTA is not possible once bootloader is unlocked. System partition touched or not played no role.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] mika91:
ok.

So if I want root the XC, I have to unlock the bootloader, loose DRM and ota?

How is the camera quality without the drm keys?

Thanks
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] SXUsr:
See my post to get a rooted stock with DRM.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] ondrejvaroscak:
You HAVE to unlock. There is NO root on LOCKED bootloader.

Unlocking bootloader deletes TA partition, containing DRM keys. You should BACKUP your TA partition BEFORE unlocking using DirtyCow Backup tool from Sony Cross Devices forum.

After unlocking, you can either flash kernel that supports DRM patching either by using fake DRM libraries, or your real DRM keys, either flashed in alternative location (see RootKernel tool in Z5 forums, works on almost all modern Xperias) or PoC TA tool from Sony Cross devices, that mounts your TA backup as TA partition, therefore your phone looks as having DRM keys and locked.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] fredsky2:
Would you mind detailing a bit more those steps, especially the first 2? Im coming from a really old phone so im still a bit lost. (where can i learn about ftf/sin/elf?)

How can we flash back to 198? Flashing doesnt require an unlocked BL, wich to be achieved deletes your TA?

im on a brand new X Compact, 7.0 (34.2.A.0.292), secure patch 01/01/17

managed to get flashtool, adb/fastboot and Universal TA Backup v2 on my pc but no dice on TA backup yet
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] SXUsr:
Sure. You don't really need to learn about those stuff but is handy to know, you'll pick stuff up along the way. They are basically firmware files.

Open the flashtool and run Xperifirm (icon with XI) on it, then browse to the XC, then click on F5321 and it will load up the different regions and available firmware. If you click on "check all" it will then show which FW is available to download, Central Europe 5 still shows as 198, so you need to select it on the right of the screen under the picture of the phone, it will then download and it's simply a matter of following the instructions to flash it.

When you get 198 on your phone then you'll be able to back your TA. If you get stuck give us a shout.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] fredsky2:
Thank you, i was able to successfully backup my TA earlier yesterday. But now im struggling with how to restore it in MM 6.0.1 (34.1.A.1.198).

I've read that i'll need a custom kernel for that (and to get TWRP+supersu+magisk+xposed) but im unsure if i should use Genesis (probably unsuported but the only one that says it'll restore MY TA) or Advanced Stock Kernel from Androplus. Ive read that messing with TA can hardbrick my phone so im trying to be extra careful.

atm im following ondrejvaroscak's quickrecap to make sure everything goes smooth with my TA keys and then i plan to downgrade to 6.0, install Advanced Stock Kernel, supersu 2.79 and magisk and then pray for the best (without reflashing my own DK.ftf?)
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] SXUsr:
Download Flashtool 9.22.3 and flash your DK.ftf, flashing with a newer version doesn't work, you should then be able to verify it's worked in the service menu.

You can use the RootKernel tool to modify your own kernel, extract the kernel.sin from the ftf with a zip program, then use the flashtool to extract the kernel.elf, Tools-Sin Editor-Extract Data then run it through the RootKernel tool and flash the boot.img it creates, then flash TWRP separately to the recovery partition which will allow you then to flash SuperSU.

SuperSU and BusyBox are the only options I didn't include when creating my kernel. Others will have to help with the other two things you want as I refuse to use them.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] fredsky2:
Thanks again. I was worried that the drm-fix from the kernel editing tool could corrupt my TA partition but thankfully i was wrong on that :).

Im now at MM 6.0, original DRM keys, TWRP, xposed, rooted with magisk and im almost sure that with busybox. Why do you refuse to use them? Just curious!

Thanks a lot for your help, cheers
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] SXUsr:
I flashed a kernel I made with the Rootkernel tool without the drm fix but it showed some mumbo jumbo where it should say ok and provisioned, included the drm fix in the next one and it worked fine then.

You're welcome. I refuse because I prefer to know how to mod apks directly and I found Xposed to be quite buggy. I can see the benefits, it's just not for me.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jutphaas:
Hi, I have bought (for a reasonably low price off course) a second hand no warranty E5823 with a defect.. Rebooting.

I thought maybe reinstalling flashing a Rom might solve it, but it appears to be a motherboard problem (I have had battery and display from my other z5c I was working on tested with this motherboard, but same problem)

I have tried flashing lineage os 14.1 and stock roms, now on nougat .378 rooted.

Beside that now the Wi-Fi had low range, everything works, but the reboot error stays.

Sometimes it stays on for a while but then I touch the screen and it freezes and reboots.

Yesterday, it kept rebooting very often, I did adb logcat from Windows (not that I know what to do with these logcats) but it seems when I run adb logcat it won't reboot ❓....

And so it was rebooting almost immediately, several times in a row, but with adb logcat via USB it just stayed on... No reboot.

So I am wondering, why can I install roms flash with Fastboot or flashtool or twrp without problem, and not just keep a installed Rom running.

My thoughts are, maybe something is wrong with a cpu , GPU, or some other sensor.

Had done a burn in test a few weeks ago that went on for hours with no problem..

Now at this time I installed kernel adiutor, and just change a lot of settings and set on boot, change like heat detection(but back to standard now), delay between shifting cpu speeds etc.

Not max GPU and not min gpu , well, now it does sit on max GPU but min 305.

GPU governor to performance

Changed cpu hotplug to down 18 up 85

Offline delay 500ms

Memory settings (aggressive)

Read ahead a bit more than standard

Etc

I just changed a bunch of things just to try, because I don't know what causes the reboot, and at flash or (adb logcat) or twrp there seems to be settings "possible" that it can work without rebooting

So it looks like at this time with my settings changed and saved for reboot at kernel adiutor, I have a way to keep the phone on.... And still working fine.

Are there any ideas what can be done to find out what really causes the hardware error, that in e.g. Kernel adiutor I can just focus on that part?

And are there better apps than kernel adiutor, as it seems that it won't really listen to or save my commands of the min max big and little cpu's.

(I am now using the stock kernel rooted with rootkernel23 with all options checked on )

I hope someone has a bright idea for me, or maybe someone else with the same problem with a phone outside warranty can keep it working with a partly defective mainboard .... (Because buying a mainboard is too expensive in my opinion/case)

(And of course when I flashed it was complete wipe etc. Different roms from the oldest to the newest. Same problem)

Here the steps:

Get the .327 stock boot.img. I got it from https://xdaforums.com/zenfone2/general/bl-unlock-ze551ml-toolkit-t3546293.

Get the Magisk Uninstaller.

Get the Magisk 12 (adrian1234a version) and/or v13b (Boret's version). s.ramdhani's version flashes well but doesn't save settings correctly.

Copy all files in your phone.

Boot on recovery (TWRP).

Flash boot.img (make a backup previously).

Flash Magisk Uninstaller.

Reboot on recover (maybe you can skip it).

Flash Magisk.

Wipe cache and Dalvik.

Reboot, wait Android config apps and then, Android should install Magisk Manager too.

Attached Screenshots.
