[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whyfi:
My daughter-in-law complained of the same situation with her M8. The phone is stock and locked with the carrier. Fully charged the phone while it was off. Turned it on and wouldn't boot up. Held down the power button for ten seconds to turn it off. Got into the bootloader....fastboot....recovery....then a blank screen. Thought it turned itself off. Left the phone and thought it died. Looked at it after an hour, it was in recovery mode. Selected "wipe cache partition" when done, selected "wipe date/factory reset". After all that, selected power down. Turn on the power button and everything booted up like new.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brunkonjaa:
So have you tried that what previous post said ?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chaz1411:
Yes same as ever just goes back to start up, is the givar help anyone.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brunkonjaa:
So little update....

Downloaded h3g rom file from easy firmware, renamed it, copied to root of micro sd card, inserted to phone and booted to bootloader.

Straight away phone checked the zip file, showed the pass message on compatibility of the file and started update process. I took a 10-15 minutes, no hiccups or error messages. Everything went smoothly.

Lastly it asked me to press power button to restart the phone. It just went black screen, no vibration, nothing happened. When plugged into wall charger only sign of life is slowly blinking red charging light at the top of the device. Pc identify it as "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008" device.

Soooooooo disappointed right now.......

I wonder, since I have another M8qlul which is working just fine, would it be, in any way or form, be possible to create a scatter file and attempt to use qfil or some other qualcomm raw writer to (maybe!) unbrick this "little" headache ?

Any thoughts any one?

It's come to the point where I'll do anything just for the sake of trying, might open up some possible new outlook regarding the device and it's revival possibility.

Oh, I tried all combinations of buttons, all buttons together for minimum 2 minutes, overnight charge, bright light above screen. Won't budge....

[LineageOS Questions & Answers] jhedfors:
For device-specific discussion (which the kernel most definitely is), you need to go to your devices ROM thread.

Not sure if that thread was setup by your device maintainer, but you may ask in that thread.
[Xperia SP General] Dr.TheMaster:
I solved the problem by manually let the FlashTool sync the devices databases from Github

1 - Connect to the internet

2- From FlashTool > Devices > Device Sync > Manual Sync

3- after it's done syncing close FlashTool and open it again..

4- it should say loaded ninety something devices (in my case 94)

5- choose flash > flashmode and choose a folder that contains any correct FTF (not corrupted FTF file) whatever the names of the files are..

you should now have your device(s) listed in the Firmwares box with the FTF files after expanding the device name..

if this method doesn't work for you simply install an older version of FlashTool

here is a link of Ver 0.9.18.6 for windows

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24562946973630873

Have a good flashing :)

[Xperia SP General] Apotrox:
Had the same problem with my Xperia T (LT30P). Just disconnect the battery and hold power and volume up for a few seconds (dunno if it does something, just repeating what i've read somewhere). After that it should connect to your pc just fine so you can flash another kernel and/or ROM.

Didn't work in my case, tried on Flashtool v0.9.34 for windows and linux and v0.9.28 for windows, it refused to read the Xperia SO-02K firmware which I needed to flash for DRM keys backup.

Flashtool v0.9.18.6 and v0.9.15 for windows were both able to read it, but threw "root : this bundle is not valid" and "Cannot open bundle. Flash operation canceled" errors during flashing. I tried four different versions of the firmware and ultimately used newflasher v20 instead.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Venkat548:
I am still deciding on which one to buy s8 or s8 plus.

Do you guys think s8+ is going to be too big and awkward to use? Especially the fingerprint scanner on the back

BTW I am using S7 edge and it's perfect
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] dakalter:
I'm getting the plus and I'm going to mainly use the iris scanner instead of the fingerprint
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] therock3181:
If you have never use a Nexus 6P or something similar in size, you will find it huge !

I personally own a 6P and can't go under 5.7'' . S8+ screen is welcomed !
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] BigBen60:
I own a S7 edge and I'll pre-order the S8. It's almost the same size as the S7e, so if you think it's perfect you should buy the 5.8 inches Galaxy S8
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] pinkie00200:
fyi S8+ has slightly better and bigger battery
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] galaxys:

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] abdelha:

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] gregou:
From S7E to S8+ !

Apparently, the S8+ is more or less the same size that Iphone 7 plus...
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] CConn882:
I'm getting the 8+ purely for the larger battery, but based on the dimensions, I don't think size will be too much of a problem, compared to other phablet phones out there. The only awkwardness may come from the taller display - definitely not the width.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] asphire23:
Can anyone find a size comparison or video review between the S8/S8+ with the nexus 6p?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Rado_vr6:
I preordered the S8+ and after playing with it in store, I cancelled my preorder and got the normal S8. I hate the size of the iPhone 7 Plus and the S8+ is just a little more narrow, but still girthy to me. Granted I don't have massive hands and could probably live with the S8+, but the S8 just felt so comfortable. I have a G6 and a Pixel currently and I highly recommend the normal S8 if you're used to a smaller device.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Shuthefrontdoor:
I went to Best buy yesterday and held both, the s8+ didn't feel so big that it was unweildly, but nonetheless it was still a big phone, the s8 felt pretty perfect especially if you like the size of the s7e, but I cancelled my preorder for the s8+ and will wait to see battery life reviews, I'm hoping s8 will be on par with s8+
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] skywalkr2:
I also went and looked at both today, and purchased regular s8. s8+ was too tall.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Venkat548:
I am now going to bestbuy as well. Will see how each model feels and then will pre-order .

Anything you want me to check guys??

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] jdiddy_ub:
go to phonearena.com and check out their size comparison feature....you can calibrate your screen based on your current phone and it will give you the option to generate an overlap or side by side comparison. This is the best way to figure out if you like the size as this is going to be the actual size of the phone and not just an eyeballed guess
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] venki5star:
There is no difference between two except size and battery. Battery wise you won't see much difference because of the screen size. So if you want bigger phone go with S8+ else you know what to get.

Personal, I got S8 for myself. Should be easy to carry in pocket as well.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] 954wrecker:
S8 is a hair shorter and a little narrower than the S7 edge.

http://www.phonearena.com/phones/si...y-S7-edge,Samsung-Galaxy-S8/phones/9818,10311

S8+ is just a little taller and a hair wider than the S7 edge.

http://www.phonearena.com/phones/si...y-S7-edge,Samsung-Galaxy-S8/phones/9818,10312
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] FluxionFluff:
Because the only differences between the S8 and S8+ are the screen and battery sizes (5.8," 3000mAh vs 6.2," 3500mAh) it comes down to personal preference. Like other people have said, the S8 is slightly shorter and narrower than the S7 Edge, while the S8+ is slightly narrower and taller than the S7 Edge, so either version should be find.

Personally, if you have smaller hands (like I do) and/or already struggling with the size of the S7 Edge, then go with the S8. If possible, go to a Best Buy and check out both versions there in their Samsung section. Feeling them in hand will prove to be MUCH more helpful, than anyone's 2 cents on the matter. That's what helped me figure out what color and version of the S8 I wanted to pre-order.

Just saying, even with smaller hands, I didn't have much issue with the larger variant. Heck, took me literally an hour to actually do the pre-order because I had trouble making up mind on which size, haha. XD That, and if you do have a Best Buy near you, do the pre-order there as you can save $50 on the S8, $100 on the S8+. Unless you plan on buying it outright, because you won't get the discount, at least that's what I can tell on their site.

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] jeoleo7:
Hi,

When my HTC 10 was on MM there used to be vibration once the call was answered.

Now in 7.0 (2.41.617.6) it stopped working and I can't see that option to enable or disable.

But whenever I install the EU version of firmware, it vibrates.

How to get that option back on my US unlocked version?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] gideonMorrison:
So the Note 4 625 is cheaper on Aliexpress (global version with bands) than the 4X. Now I wonder if the SD 625 version has the display and camera of the X20 version...

What are the differences and can anyone confirm if they are the same or different?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] nuraH6:
I already write about these differences - you can find it on my post here: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=71608109&postcount=7

Note 4 (MTK) has Samsung S5K3L8 camera sensor - Note 4X and Note 4 (SD625) have Sony IMX258 camera sensor
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] PriPhaze:
The global version will let you have 4G in some countries that wouldn't work in 4G cuz it lack of the neccesary band (the 4x version)

I think that's the main difference? other than that it is the same as the 4X and the Note 4 with Helios X20 is the oldest one but still kicking ass.

Edit: Summary!

Note 4 Helios x20 has some great performace but it is less efficient and the battery will drain faster than the other versions

Note 4x Was made for the Indian using a snapdragon 625 cuz xiaomi can not sell mediatek anymore in india i do not remember why; The snapdragon has a much newer architecture and is more efficient with the battery consumption so you will have more time of SOT (Screen on Time)

Note 4 Global Same as 4x but enables 4g connectivity in some countries that needed that band, the 4X runs in 3G or H +

Dude Note 4 is the Indian version, not 4X

[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] kuroyume_cl:
I'm thinking of buying a EVA-TL00 pre flashed by the vendor (Aliexpress store) to EVA-L19 firmware. I assume once flashed it would basically be the same as an international phone. Am i wrong? If I am what would the differences be?

Even after paying customs it would still be almost 300usd cheaper than buying it from my carrier, so I'm willing to put up with some minor annoyances, but I would still draw the line at basic stuff not working, or not being able to receive OTA updates.
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] wimsjohn:
I just rooted my P9 lite, installed TWRP from the SRK Guide in here and then saw that Snapchat checks for root.

How does the process of returning to stock work? Where do i get my .zip?
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] wimsjohn:
I understand that i need to download my full ROM [Firmware Finder APP] but how do i procees further? Do i need to have stock recovery for dload method?
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] Potato997:
The unroot option in SuperSU does not work? :/

Download the stock firmware from here: https://xdaforums.com/huawei-p9lite/development/stock-firmware-links-t3468245

Extract the dload folder which has the UPDATE.APP inside, put the dload folder in your microSD card, power off the phone, hold power button + volume up + volume down and wait until the installation will start.

This will relock your bootloader and restore the phone to stock firmware.

Does it matter that i have a ****ty twrp installed which doesnt even recognize data partition?

[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] Potato997:
You can unlock and root as you already did. Which TWRP are you using?
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] wimsjohn:
I had a ****ty one from the Guide with the srktoolkit. Now i updated to TWRP v4 by METICULUS. It works and i can finally see /data/media again.

Does the Phone Off then 3 Button trick go through the Recovery or through what exactly?

I would now do the thing above, then unlock my Bootloader again (i still have the key so it should be easy), install the TWRP by METICULUS, install my apps i need to install without root (Snapchat) , then reboot to twrp and flash newest supersu from chainfire. Finished. Am i right?

Btw i have to say that i was pretty much a flashaholic with tht Galaxy S3, Moto G and OnePlus 2 and it was never this tricky i think :'D
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] wimsjohn:
Well TRWP still doesnt get /data. I didn't encrypt anything but Twrp keeps telling me that it cant find it. And when i (select storage) (internal storage) it goes to /emmc...
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] wimsjohn:
At first the log says:

Failed to mount '/data' (mounted without encryption)

And the Screenshots were saved to /data/media/Pictures/Scrennshots insted of somwhere in the internal storage...

I fear of having my partitions mixed up somehow because when stock recovery couldn finish wiping cache and data too...
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] Potato997:
Probably TWRP can't mount encrypted Huawei data partition, the only thing it can probably do is to format it so basically a hard reset
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] wimsjohn:
So -> TWRP -> Format /data?

EDIT: I tried format data -> yes -> and even there it said can't find /data partition.

Any ideas what i can do?? Everything works but i can't do anything in all the TWRPs...

This is a normal call as you can see the ID call appears as unknown and should put Spain. The country is unknown, before it appeared well, In another case the name of the city, In the call list if it appears fine.

WHEN USING the numeric keypad the name and photo cover the numbers of the keyboard and it is difficult to see them

You can put an option to return to its original state or smaller

Some magic solution of yours, thanks.
