[Huawei Mate S] reaverza:
Hi there. I have the Huawei Mate S CRR-UL00. Here in South Africa, we stopped getting OTA updates after Android 5.1.1 Lollipop, which has been really frustrating. So I decided to do a manual update to Marshmallow using the Middle East update from here: https://xdaforums.com/mate-s/general/huawei-mate-s-firmware-crr-ul00c185b355-t3411584

That was a couple days ago, and everything has been running brilliantly... Up until this morning.

Without me changing a damn thing, all of sudden the option to have no screen lock password has been greyed out due to it being disabled by "device administrator, encryption or credential storage". None of those things have been set for this. I've also gone through every fix I could find online, like clearing out the credential storage and disabling the device administrators. No luck.

But then while going through everything on the phone trying to find what could have done this, I realized that I'm no longer getting detailed notifications on the lock screen. But here's where it gets weird. When I go to the setting to change this, IT'S NOT THERE. If I search the settings, it finds the correct option, but when I click on the search result to take me to the correct screen, there's nothing.

I'm a little bit stumped on this one and could really do with some guidance.

go to settings > screen lock and passwords

go to password

go to pattern

draw a 4 point pattern

enter backup pin 0000

lock device with power button

unlock device with power button to show lockscreen

enter a WRONG pattern

wait 30 seconds

enter your backup pin (0000)

it should reset your lockscreen security password should be

set back to "none".

[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LaccoEndres:
EDIT

I woke up and did exact the same thing as I was doing yesterday. It worked. I don't know how or why, but it worked.

Now I'm stuck on "Android initializing apps" screen. Maybe soon I'll get it to work xD

---------------------------------------------------------------

EDIT 2

All was needed to do, was boot the phone without charge cable pluged-in.

It's aaaaaallll fine now õ/

---------------------------------------------------------------

So... As the title says. By mistake, I wiped everything: Dalvik Cache, System, Data, Internal Storage, Cache, Micro SD.

Yea, everything. Total newbie.

My device is an Moto E XT1025

I'm trying to fix it for couple of hours now. But simply can't.

I have an .zip with ROM in the SD, tried to install/flash and give me this errors (in sequence):

- no MD5 file found;

- could not detect filesystem~;

- failed to mount~;

- patching system image unconditional;

- failed to update system image;

- error executing updater binary in zip;

Then I tried to adb sideload, so I have this error:

- no MD5 file found.

And it stops here.

The ROM I tried was: https://xdaforums.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=14329

Now all my phone can do is: stuck at bootloader screen and enter in recovery/twrp mode.

I don't know what I can do now :(

[SuperSU] Tom-72:
Hi

I recently tried to root my phone from this guide: devs-lab.com/root-samsung-galaxy-s7-s7-edge

I followed the instructions and flashed this file from ODIN:

Samsung_G930x_QC_Rooted_BOOT.TAR

The file transferred ok and when the phone started rebooting it just stopped with a fault message on the screen.

Now the phone is stucked and i can't get contact with Odin. Odin recognizes the phone on the port but i cant flash to the phone.

The only way i have a chance to install on the phone now is with SD-card, because i am able to get to the recovery mode.

But when i try to install new stockware i just get signature failed message.

Does anyone know how i can get out of this mess ? I know its possible to turn of the signature check, but i cant get any options like this in the menu ..... BTW the phone is a G930F

I would really appreciate all help !

Thanks

Tom
[SuperSU] POWerSUrgeSW3:
Which fault message are you receiving?
[SuperSU] Tom-72:
Hi,

I dont remember exactly the fault message because my phone has been sent to service. But i will get it back in a couple of days. Then i will tell you the entire message. But is was something about kernel fault....

The service center says i have to replace the main board on the phone which cost almost the same as a new phone....

But i'm sure the main board is not broken...

Tom
[SuperSU] POWerSUrgeSW3:
Blah that's never good. Though I don't always trust things HAVE to be replaced at the hardware level. But it is what it is. Hopefully when you get it back all will be working for you! Unless it was just a bad chip, failing at the same time you were trying to write the new files to memory?
[SuperSU] Tom-72:
Well....

Actually i'm hoping to fix the phone withouth replacing the main board since it is so expencive.

So i asked them to return it withouth replacing. Because as long as i can get the phone in recovery mode its not broken. I just need to get pass Samsungs signature verification somehow... Then i can install new firmware...

Still hoping to get help. I will post the error message as soon as i get the phone back,

Thanks so far :)

Tom
[SuperSU] POWerSUrgeSW3:
I think I did the same thing when I first got the Phoenix, and did not research and do not turn the OEM Unlock feature on. I messed up things and through a lot of reflashing and panic searching, got mine to come back.

I since have seen others post issues that sound horrible but have been recoverable. We'll help you try to figure it out once you get the phone back.
[SuperSU] Tom-72:
Hi, i finally got my phone back.

Been trying different things like installing new firmware by using the SD-card. And also by using ADB, since the phone allows me to install software through ADB.

But no matter what i do the phone tells that signature verification failed.

I think one fault i did when installing the twrp custom recovery from ODIN i forgot to press the key combo and it started up with the original bootloader. Then it got stuck with the error screen i told you about.

I have uploaded a picture of the error message below.

If anyone knows how to get by the signature verification test then maby i could be able to install new firmware....

Thanks again, i will be grateful for any tips that could help me !

Best Regards

Tom
[SuperSU] Tom-72:
Good NEWS !!!!!

I managed to get the phone working again...

What i did was:

Holding the volume down, home and power button at the same time. When the phone went black i plugged in the USB cabel from the computer.

The error message came up 2 - 3 times but i kept holding the buttons.

Eventually it went into download mode and i used ODIN to flash the firmware...

I hope this could solve the problem also for others facing similar issues.

Thanks to BWolf56 who posted in a forum here. His tips fom 2011 .... helped me.

Hey everyone.

I recently got a HTC Touch Dual, and I would like to get a bluetooth GPS (I get lost a lot on the road xD).

- Number of channels

- Baterry Life-Time

Honestly what is the point of an external receiver? If your phone does not support GPS independantly then you might as well spend another 40$ and get the entire GPS unit for the car.

maybe its $40 where you live ... but here it'll cost me at least $200!

I just got the freedom keychain gps reciever and l love it. I use Gps quite a bit and the accuracy on this is great. I love the fact that it is so tiny and attaches to my keys so I never even have to remember to bring it. I highly recommend this unit.
[General Accessories] john.smith:
Try www.GPSPassion.com for further info. I recommend Qstarz BT-Q818 with 32 hours and auto on/off. It's called "51 channels", not live up to its name since there are only 24 operating sats around the Earth, but the reception quality is definitely one of the best in the market.
[General Accessories] Hotboxx:
I bought this one, only 35 Euro all in, and it works perfect with my Magician, it is even faster than my Mio PNA
[General Accessories] sook:
I just got a BT-359 off of ebay for $35. Works just fine everywhere except my office building. I do live in Phoenix so I've not tried it in a glass canyon yet tho.

I decided not to get a car gps for a few reasons.

1. i dont need to give anyone reason to bust my window

2. my tytn is much smaller if i want portable gps

3. im not bound to one software

3.5 much more customizable

4. bluetooth works with my laptop

5. $35 is much better than $100+

I recently purchased a P2. Every thing's good. Battery life is also better than most of the phones. But, one thing that I noticed is that Cpu usage is high in idle state too. I did a factory reset. But, the problem persists. I usually get around 8hrs SOT. I think that's lower than most P2's.

Is there a way to solve this? My bootloader is not yet unlocked. Have to wait 12 more days.

Thanks.

Here is how it was for me.

I took phone out of the box with MM preinstalled and right after i turned up the screen and connected to my wifi network it asked me to update OS to Nougat 7.0 so i did. The bug that caused CPU stays at 1.69Ghz occures for 100% on Nougat, and you say on MM too ?

Anyways, for me, hard reset solved the problem, at least this one.

But battery drain still takes place. In normal mode 3-4%, in ultra power saving - 5-6% over night (5-7h). This is pretty a lot i would say.

ps: Phone goes into deep sleep mode according to BetterBatStats.

1. Format data partition to ext4.

2. Type in the recovery terminal :

3. Flash the magisk12.zip

4. Reboot

5. Install Magisk manager

If you have another su like phh, will not work, you need reinstall the original boot image.
[Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers] azeemzuhair:
Should be around 0.2%/hr...

The only way to know the standby drain is normal or not, try install GSam Battery Monitor app...

View attachment 4189280

As shown above, native stock ROM S233 should drain around 0.2% per hour, which in turn to be 0.2% x 8 hours sleep = 1.6% or 1.6% of 5,100mAh is 81.6mAh energy consumption...

Conclusion:

P2a42 can survive in airplane mode for 20 days on a single charge.
[Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers] Antaroo:
So, i just checked my Gsam, and here is what is says:

0.7%/h drain in standby which is more or less what im losing of battery juice over night. It's stick Nougat form OTA update.

Right now im at 44% and i switched into ultra power saving mode. It says that i have left around 51h. I dont think this is normal. Isnt it really very little time ?

It's just a little over 2 full days @ 44%

Damn...

Should i return this piece to store with complain i got faulty one ?

Can you please switch to ultra power saving mode just for a second and tell me what did it calculate aproximately as time left on battery ?
[Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers] 911-Future_Maker:
[MENTION=5983631]Antaroo[/MENTION] Just wait until you unlock the bootloader and then clean install the S233.
[Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers] Antaroo:
Ok, here is the thing. I did as asked. Rebooted phone in save mode at 9% battery left yesterday when i was about to go sleep around 2am. Additionally i switched it into ultra power saving mode. In this state phone was losing around 5-7% battery over night. Guess what ? This time from 2am till now 11:30am it lost.....0%. 9% when i was going sleep, 9% when i woke up.

So help me now understand what may be going on and what should be my next steps. Obviously rebooting into normal mode will result in futher battery drains in standby.

So hard reset once again, but this time without automatic restoration of apps and stuff ? What would you suggest ?
[Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers] azeemzuhair:
It's pretty normal to have 0.7%/hr discharge rate if you have Facebook, email syncing, and other push notifications apps running in the background... it'll be abnormal if the discharge rate is above 1.5%/hr...

GSam Battery Monitor app does not work properly in Ultra Power Saving mode because only basic features like phone, SMS, alarm clock and calculator is allowed in this mode.

This shows that there is nothing wrong with the hardware and stock firmware S233...

Like I've mentioned earlier, 0.7%/hr is normal discharge rate...

[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] 911-Future_Maker:
I was initially on 3's S056_UK firmware. Then I flashed S062_ROW over it, no issues so far. I think flashing the S232 over the S062 won't lead to any problems as well. I suggest first to move to S062 as there is no OTA for S056 to S232. Then flash the OTA. Of course you can also do a clean Nougat install if you wish. This is if you go for the twrp version which I prefer.

The link in this thread is for the fastboot version, so you can full wipe your current rom and install this perfectly fine.
