[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lyokacanthrope:
Hey there, XDA.

So I've been puttering about with Ubuntu Touch on another device I have lately (Fairphone 2) and attempted a couple ports in the past...

(Moto X 2013, gave away to a friend, Galaxy Note 3, ran into a roadblock with partition sizes)

I got to looking at my Shield Tablet and was just thinking about how it'd be a near perfect poster-child for Ubuntu Touch for tablets. The device is still a relative power house, has great specs, native HDMI out for convergence, and even has OEM maintained device trees and kernel sources!

On paper, it's perfect.

So, I was thinking, would anyone else want to see Ubuntu Touch running on this tablet through the UBPorts project? Any dev support would be especially helpful, as Nvidia's hardware is truly a bit...unique.

Before anyone points it out: I am aware that there is a 'native' Ubuntu desktop port already, however it is awfully out of date and the developer does not seem very interested in maintaining it currently (and I don't blame him, considering how much work porting nvidia's L4T sources to the TN8 must be)
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpearn:
Interest from me, I can test. No good at developing though !
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Son-j:
Yes of course! There is some interesting on having Linux in shield tablet. There's linux4tegra but it's dependent on lollipop kernel. So it would be nice having a dual boot stock nougat and Ubuntu for shield tablet :) thanks for the initiative.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcunwired:
Interest from me too. Also without dev skills, but happy to test
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lyokacanthrope:
Well, sadly, might still be dependant on Lollipop blobs/kernel as Ubuntu Touch still relies on Lollipop device trees since it uses libhybris for device support. Most annoying thing about it.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Son-j:
Is it possible to request Ubuntu for an updated kernel dependency?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Necroduss:
I saw a few Intel Z8300 Cherry Trail tablets have factory dual boot Windows 10 and Android, so I bought one.

Turns out mine isn't dual boot, but Windows 10 only (my mistake)

However, these cheap (supposedly manufactured in Germany but features a "made in china" on the back) chinese tablets all seem to have pretty much the same specs.

And Cherry Trail processor are obviously able to run dual boots of windows and Android.

Do you think it could work out flashing Cube iWork10, Chuwi, or Telcast' tablets dual boot android image on this phone?

Another possible route could be flashing Android-x86, though this processor is supposedly x64. But it runs a regular Windows 10 x86.

Does this make any sense?

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aakash dabrase:
As you know lots of devices are facing this issue where the device is in bootloop and the bootloader is locked.

I have last hope that if anyone can help me with any one of the solution, I can rescue my nexus 6p.

Device info:

Rom: Android 7.1.1 stock rom

Bootloader: Locked (OEM unlocking not enabled in developer options)

Warranty: Ended on 14th feb 2017

Huawei said motherboard will cost Rs.28000 i.e $400 approx.

I can boot into bootloader menu and recovery as well.

I tried sideloading the OTA zips from google, it flashes successfully but still bootloops.

Note: My device didn't reboot after 90 seconds when it was in bootloader menu also I as I can sideload OTAs successfully, I don't really think that its an hardware issue.

I have 2 options as my last resort.

1. I've read that if you unenroll from Android BETA program, you get an OTA update which wipes your entire device.

BUT for this I must be able to boot which I cannot.

HELP: Can anyone provide me the BETA unenrolled OTA link so that I can try sideloading it?

2. I've also read that we can flash all partitions of nexus 6p in EDL mode refer:https://xdaforums.com/nexus-6p/general/howtos-debrick-nexus-6p-stuck-edl-9008-t3552838

Files included in zip are attached below.[IMG="Files in Nexus Zip"]https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0u9rBUH0Fg8ZlRRdmFTblJsdk0/view?usp=sharing[/IMG]

HELP: As per thread only way to boot into EDL mode is by ADB which I can't access as my phone doesn't boot up.

Can anyone help me with booting my device into EDL mode so that I can try flashing this file.

* I CAN'T AFFORD NEW MOTHERBOARD, I'm just a student.

I have the same problem with my Nexus 6p. I have switched to an iphone 7.

Is Google a serious organization to let so many users suffer because of their problems? I mean this really HAS to be seriously unethical company to do this. As for Huawei, well- we should have known and expected such behavior. At the end of the day it is a Chinese brand... so it needs to maintain its low levels of reputation to be worthy of its fine name.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] egoist6:
i have a strange behavior of my hermes.

in the "configure server" settings i had to change the server name from "ds-exchange" to "ds-exchange.<our domainname>.ad".

when syncing it only establishes the isp connection whereas before it also established the vpn connection.

when establishing the vpn connection manually active sync is closing the vpn connection and only uses the isp connection.

when setting back the server name to "ds-exchange" it works well but could not reach the server.

any ideas?

Hello,

had to learn what my beloved Z2 Pro has working Mirrorcast (self tested in my car head unit) but Mirrorlink is not working ?!

Thought Mirrorlink is only like Mirrorcast plus app Controll via Bluetooth...

All things are working exept showing the mobile display in the head unit.

I can use my finger moving on the head unit display shown as mousecursor on the mobile display.

Anybody knows if it is a hardware problem or do I have the chance to change the ROM and then ML is working?

If yes which ROM?

I'm using the 2.5.335ST at the moment.

Maybe some of the alternative ROM users can look if there is a option: Mirrorlink ? (mostly unter WLAN or under Display settings...)

Thanxs in advance.

additional question: Does anyone have a working MHL(HDMI) to USB-Type-C Cabel?

[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] elite-fusion:
Hey everyone,

Just wondering if anyone on here is giving up their N7 for the S8+? Most specs look to be better, with the exception of the S-Pen of course.

Any idea when the N8 will be out? Though they did mention that they will be re-releasing the N7 as refurbs.

Debating about the S8+ at this point.

I love the N7, but who knows when the N8 will be out, so debating...

Called T-Mbile to find out if I still get a refund and they said YES 2 days ago. They said I would get back the downpayment/tax and whatever the monthly charges were up until the day when I called, so it came out to close to 400, but they said it would be in credits to the account, which I am fine with either way. Today I chatted with them online instead of calling, and they advised that the recall was finished and that refunds are no longer being given, but recommended I see a local store, so now I am not sure what to do.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Dark Jedi:
I'll wait for the N8 and I think I heard people say the N8 would be out at the end of the year. Don't quote me on that.

If they are re releasing the N7. As long as it is still a beast of a phone like it was on original release. I will be happy with that. At a cheaper price of course. The pen spoiled me that's for sure
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] elite-fusion:
That is kind of what is holding me back, the lack of the S-Pen, but if you were to ask me how often do I use it, I'd say about 5 times since I got the phone in my hand haha

I like the luxury of having it if I need/want to use it, but do not find myself using it that much unfortunately.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] zbms:
They told me I'll get credit for everything I paid so far if I return it. I called an hour ago and I'm still deciding off I should get the s8
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] elite-fusion:
I will head to the store today to see if I like the s8+ or not. the only thing really holding me back would be the fact that i wont be able to jump to the N8 when it comes out since it will be less than a year or 50% of the phone, so thats really the one and only thing. S8 is technically better in terms of specs I think. It is a bit more narrow but bigger screen, but no s-pen.

Eh, decisions, decisions lol
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] ThC23:
You'll get your credit, only thing is if you were in Jump on Demand then it gets voided and you have to start a different jump program.

It sucks, I didn't wanna have to get rid of JOD. I'm debating if I want to or not now.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] elite-fusion:
Yep, I was thinking of that too, but I was originally on Jump 2.0 and did not want to switch to JoD. I dont remember the reasoning why I DIDNT want to switch, but i'm fine with J2.0 because I only jump ones a year either way to the next best samsung lol
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] RaymondPJR:
I own my Note 7 outright, paid in full. I have no intentions of getting the S8, I'll wait for the next Note. I do, however, intend to return my Note 7 for a full refund and get the Note 8 without having to pay too much more. I'd love to have somebody at Magenta try to tell me the recall is over. Fact is, it is not! There is no expiration date and they can't invent one!
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] 89dynasty:
I recently took the plunge and finally returned my note 7. No T-Mobile stores I went to would accept it saying the recall had expired, smh. I eventually ended up doing the return through Samsung and got a better deal. Phone and 2 cases plus the extra $25 from Samsung netted me back $999. I'll gladly take that in a check than credits from T-Mobile.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] RaymondPJR:
Like the other carriers they were compensated by Samsung for all Note 7's. That's money they intend to keep, Magenta can be scandalous! Since mine is paid in full it won't go down that way when I return mind, I'll make sure if it!
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] ThC23:
So are they mailing you something for the Note 7 or are you returning it to the store?

[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Auvenell:
I've been instructed to return my Note7 at a store within two weeks of receiving my new device. I just got the S8+ some 12-13 hours ago. I have not yet returned the Note7.

I'm currently in possession of both the S8+ and the Note7. They're quite similar actually; I think the upgrade is far more dramatic from the S7 or even the S7 edge.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] ThC23:
Thanks for the info, I went to Tmo store and did it there. I kept my JOD so I'll be able to get the Note 8 when it comes out. I'm a happy camper lol. But I went with the regular S8, same screen size as the Note 7, just less bezel.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] PapaWangsta:
I'm using both phones(N7 & s8+). Let me make it a short and sweet. S8+ is pretty much like the N7. Both phones pretty much has same software and exterior, except s8+ is a bit taller(more screen real estate). You obviously missing out the mighty s-pen from N7. Look at the pic below, the N7 sits almost perfectly inside the s8+'s wallet case. For those whom still has the N7, IMO just keep it and wait until the N8. ;)
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] ThC23:
Lol, I would of kept mine but my battery was getting ****tier and my charging port was so loose that by the slightest touch it would come off. It was getting annoying.

But you're right, S8 is pretty much a N7 without the pen. Which I miss lol

Hey everyone,

Please bare with me, I haven't rooted a phone (using Chainfire's work with a custom stock rom) in over 3 years and I'm once again new at this.

Yesterday I flashed a stock rom (using Odin) to my S7 SM-G930W8 to downgrade from nougat back to Marshmallow 6.0.1 (G930W8VLU2APK3 , (carrier: Koodo), Canada). Now I want to root it (I know, I'll have to redo the whole process but while I have a fresh backup copy, why not) especially because of the software updates nagging. I haven't found any G930W8 root files, only G930F, and while some people say "Oh, just go ahead, doesn't matter", I just want further advice on if I should really use G930F even if my current model is G930W8. I don'T wanna mess anything with my carrier (like unable to place calls, or my IMEI numbers not showing up or anything uncool (yes, I know that my warranty will most probably be void but if it's "just" that, I can live with that)).

So, any advice ?

And here the instructions for CF Autoroot

ODIN flashable devices

BASIC INSTRUCTIONS

All downloads contain .tar.md5 files flashable in ODIN as PDA.

Make sure your device is in ODIN download mode (usually you can get there by holding VolDown+Home+Power when the device is turned off), then start the included Odin3-v1.85.exe file, press the PDA button, select the .tar.md5 file, and click Start. You can find more detailed instructions and assistance at XDA.

A modified recovery and cache partition will be flashed, which will install (only) SuperSU, then	clean-up the cache partition and re-flash the stock recovery.

For the root to work, the device must reboot into recovery. Most devices will do this automatically after flashing these files, but in case that does not happen, please boot into recovery manually.

UNLOCK BOOTLOADERS

If you have locked bootloaders, flashing one of these will probably brick your device - with the exception of Nexus devices, which will usually automatically "OEM unlock" and wipe your data !
