[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bimple:
I purchased an Android TV box, and it was already rooted, however it was rooted poorly, and I am unable to install a superuser, or access the google play store, or open most apps without them crashing. My friend has the same box, and he has no issues, so I think that mine was just flashed poorly.

I have been looking for new firmware to reflash the device. I don't care about it being the same exact firmware, but obviously I want it to be compatible. I noticed that the ad boasts a 64 bit system, and the version of Android that is installed is 32 bit, so a 64 bit firmware that would be compatible would be ideal.

The device I have is a:

have you bricked abox ? did you use pins metod ?

i have a problem with GooBang Doo ABOX A1 im searching for the firmware but no luck

no short pins metod works - when i short pins and connect to pc box work usb burning connect a1 plus but always error

i have tons of firmware any is that same error i change cables computers

I have done the most short cable plug male-plug male no cable and same error :/ ....... nothing work

I get error no matter what i do of any firmware. Mayby original chip has been damaged shortening two pins trying to put the device in mask rom mode ?!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrlaugh01:
There’s still a chance to flash if it is being recognized in USB Burner application. I know when burning, be sure to uncheck the Bootloader option. Also if using Windows, be sure to open ‘As Administrator’. Also try loading the ROM in the USB burner app before plugging in device. I personally have not had to preform the ‘short pin’ method as I haven’t bricked it. You should only use the ‘shortting pin’ method when the device isn’t recognized with USB and/or showing no signs of power. Good luck!

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] eyc:
[Q] Is it possible to use the "OK Google" function when the screen is off or locked?

Does anyone know if you can invoke the "OK Google" hotword/function when the screen is off or locked a la the Moto X?

On the Moto X, you could just say "OK Google" without ever touching the phone or activating the screen, kind of like Google Home. I know you can't do that on the Galaxy S6 (You can do it from the homepage, but not from a locked or off state.)

*EDIT* - Sorry, this was already asked (but not answered) a few posts down. See https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s8/help/screen-off-battery-power-ok-google-t3582215.

Sorry if this has been covered before, spent quite a while trying to find answers...

Does anyone know what versions of Mobile Office are compatible with what desktop file formats?

Finally got around to playing with Office on my TyTNII (running Qs ROM V1.1 and Office Mobile 6.1)

Unless I'm missing something, I can only open .xlsx or .pxl files - so thats Excel 2007 or Pocket XL only...

On my main PC I have Office 2000, and OpenOffice 2.3...

Excel 2000 seems to have no compatible file formats at all.

OpenOffice can save as .pxl, but Office mobile says 'format not recognised'

OpenOffice can supposedly save as Excel 2003 XML, but doesn't seem to work for me - and I suspect Mobile won't open it anyway.

Is there some special 'Work like a sane person would expect' menu somewhere that I've not found?

[LineageOS Questions & Answers] manthysk:
Hey guys, just wanna ask.. Is there any way to reply to messages (SMS and Facebook) without unlocking phone? As you know, it is builtin feature to reply from lockscreen but you can't have any sort of lock (pin, pattern or fingerprint). So can I somehow bypass it? With rooted phone and fingerprint as lock. Thanks for the answers. Nexus 5x, LineageOS 14.1. And I am not looking for any app like FlyChat, Floatify etc, just some tweak. Thanks for any sort of help!
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] albertfuller:
If you could just "bypass the lock" it would not be locked... right! Maybe it would be good to set a location where your lock screen would not be locked, like home.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Jaydawgx7:
I just got my G6 and started getting this notification saying voice services and data services are blocked (see screenshot). Not sure if it's from WiFi calling or something else, but data and phone seem to work fine. Anyone know what may be causing this?
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] skyfox99:
Try a different wifi network. It could be a firewall issue.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] jdock:
Reviving an older thread here....

I started getting these notifications a couple weeks ago on my AT&T H871, after about 10 months with the phone. They would sometimes pop up when I'm home where cell service is spotty. When I saw the notifications, I'd notice the "AT&T" label was not being shown and I had 1 bar of network, so I assume my phone had latched onto some non-AT&T tower at the time.

Those notifications were silent, so their biggest impact was just that the big triangle with exclamation mark would take a little attention. But then came Oreo, and they are no longer silent. Yesterday I was working in my yard and they were going off every few minutes.

I would be very happy if someone had some way to avoid this! I'm going to try disabling 2G to see if that makes any difference, but since these notifications can't be blocked, I am kind of stuck with them if I can't keep whatever is causing them from happening.

Edit: I just realized that the Oreo update must have changed my default notification sound away from "Silent", so by changing that back I can at least not hear the notifications.

Light bleed from the second screen but only​ when brightness is jacked up, which is often for watching video. No better nor worse than my old V10's 2nd screen but disappointing nonetheless.
[HTC U Ultra Questions & Answers] Dogmann:
Hi all I also have no light bleed anywhere on the screen and have to say I have mine on full brightness nearly all of the time and tend to use dark wallpapers so if it was there would of shown by now. I have to also say the screen is absolutely brilliant being bright and clear and one of the reasons I chose the Ultra was for its super LCD over being a amoled screen.

[HTC U Ultra Questions & Answers] blwc:
I just went through 2 white U Ultras in Canada...and sadly...both had the same light bleed issues. I really like the device...but in the end...I had to send them back and get a refund. HTC seems good about it though. Maybe I will pick it up again in another couple of months after a price cut.

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] myculito:
After realizing I flashed the Deutche Telekom OTA file, I decided to do a clean install of the Pixel using the latest full image 7.1.2 (N2G47E, Apr 2017).

Note that I did a fresh install of full Android SDK (to ensure I got the latest versions of ADB and fastboot).

Because i'm a nerd, I manually flash the full image using the commands within the flash-all.bat file, because why not.

My observations noted the following:

1. Don't worry about erasing cache as you may have been accustomed to with other Nexus devices. You will likely see the following message, so just ignore it: Erasing active slot "_a" FAILED (remote: Partition table doesn't exist

2. I received the following errors when flashing the image:

archive does not contain 'boot.sig'

archive does not contain 'boot_other.img'

archive does not contain 'recovery.img'

archive does not contain 'system.sig'

archive does not contain 'system.sig'

archive does not contain 'vendor.sig'

archive does not contain 'vendor_other.img'

Note that these errors are OK, and does not represent a failed installation. This is validated by doing an extraction of the full image, where you will see that the files listed above do not exist within the full N2G47E image build.

That's all. Hope this helps or calms your fears if you encounter similar behavior when flashing.

[Samsung Gear S3] Honestly Annoying:
Hey guys! Some of you might know me from the LG G5 scene, but I have since moved on from there and am hoping to make some progress with the Gear S3 :)

After doing some digging and paying zero attention in class today, I came across the kernel source files for the Exynos 7270 and the combination firmwares for the Gear 3 Classic and Frontier versions.

If you don't know what combination files are here (link removed) is a great explanation but the TL;DR is that this is the internal firmware Samsung uses to reset devices, so it gives you full read/write access to the device including root access. So basically this is a pre-rooted firmware, and I assume that it is bootloader unlocked as it appears to flash an engineer sboot (bootloader), so I believe this would be the first step towards porting Android Wear/TWRP!

The kernel source is what we will actually use to port over AW/TWRP. It does not seem to have been posted before, and took me a few hours of digging to find. My watch comes in tomorrow, and after I flash this firmware I will pull the boot.img and start making a device/vendor tree to attempt and make a kernel!

Here is the kernel source for the Exynos 7270: https://github.com/HonestlyAnnoying/tizen_kernel_exynos7270

Here is the kernel source for the Gear S3 (all versions) (will upload to GitHub in the morning): Samsung Opensource

Here is the SM-R770 (Classic) combination firmware [R770XXU2BQC2]: link

Here is the SM-R760 (Frontier) combination firmware [R760XXU2BQC2]: link

The road to porting Android Wear is going to take a lot of work, and any help developing (not testing for now!) would be EXTREMELY appreciated (looking at you guys @cipherswitch @biktor_gj !;)). If you would like to help with development or would like to contribute in any way, please PM me or hit me up on Skype (honestly.annoying)!

Here is a Google Drive folder with all files I have for this, it will be updated as new things are found
