[About XDA developers] zelendel:
Really? How many devs do you see having conversations that mean anything with users? One of the biggest complaints from devs are the users. Mostly due to the fact that they won't do anything for themselves. Why do you think most teams use things like slack, or telegram (the devs don't really even talk much there in the public rooms, they have private ones set up in the side to talk shop) when I say dev I mean the real devs. Not script kiddies and compile jockies.

That is what xda stood for. It is no longer that way.

Nothing is future proof. Never has been never will be. It will end just like the days of freely modding your device. It all ends.
[About XDA developers] kuzibri:
Hi my very dear friends,

no more new ideas or suggestions how to keep XDA future proof? It's my personal idea that the interest in posting on XDA is rapidly diminishing. If true, this would be a very disappointing way to handle XDA. It meant and still means IMHO a lot for members and newbies to be informed about the latest innovations regarding smartphones and giving them details about it. Also for helping people to get out of trouble with their device or solve other problems, XDA is the place to be. Whenever there are no reactions to this post within two weeks, I will ask a friendly Mod to close this thread. The reason for this is the presumable lack of interest in this subject and thereby there exists no need anymore to continue it nor to keep monitoring it.

kindest regards, kuzibri

Thread open again for new suggestions

Hi all,

I decided to re-open this thread again in order to hope to get new and more suggestions/ideas from you XDA members how to keep XDA future proof. I have had some discussions with higher ranked members about this issue and what they recognize is that the interest in XDA is diminishing, e.g. XDA still keeps welcoming new members, but they are not posting or starting new threads. The behaviour, in their opinion. is that new members are only asking questions, usually without doing a proper search before, cause they only want instant answers. That's what XDA does not stand for. A lot of members of XDA, like Senior members, RC's and the like are very willing to help new members to find their way within XDA, but become a little frustrated by the lack of willingness of new members to do a proper search before asking a question. So, all in all, this thread has IMO certainly viability to be continued.

Hoping for a lot of reactions, kindest regards kuzibri

So I made the mistake of not backing up the MetroPCS​ sim unlock app and couldn't make a nandroid due to the encryption limitations, which I've since fixed.

I was seeing if anyone could upload the app, then we can also have this for archive purposes and incluebitnin custom ROMs

There is the simlocker folder
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] LegzRwheelz:
Thank you very much downloading now

Update: so I placed the files in the priv-app folder and it shows up and runs fine. Unfortunately, I think since I'm running Walker blue v2 and not stock. I get the message saying the app is incompatible with this device. That because the rom reports that it's an S7 I believe.

When I'm eligible for the network unlock, I'm going to flash back to stock.

Just a heads up to anyone that needed this as well.

[Q] XT1039 Bootloops & Can't Flash OR Wipe Partitions Resurrection ROM 14th Feb Build

Hi there,

I flashed 14th feb build just after it came out, dirty flashing over the previous release, like a douche.

Phone started off alright, ran fine for a few days, then I was having a really busy day and the battery kept dying due to the usage & lack of chargers available. So when I put it on to charge, I already thought might take a bit longer to charge due to the strain it had been under.

But it does charge, but when I go to boot, the animation just loops for hours and hours. It does not boot far enough for ADB to recognise any devices.

So, I then attempted the classic format all partitions (system,data,cache) and wipe dalvik via recovery. A few times, TWRP would show the files as deleted but, upon rebooting recovery the files and folders are restored. I was able to "adb pull" my apps & data and smsjournal.db and so on once mounted system and data via TWRP and then remounting via adb.

I have read somewhere (can't remember where now) that sometimes this can happen with TWRP and formating partitions as anything other than F2FS (ext3,ext4, etc...) and then reformatting back to F2FS would fix this issue. This did not work for me. I definitely followed the steps exact. I tried several times and could only get it to act as I mentioned above regarding shows no files or folders left on device until I rebooted recovery.

When I tried to do a manual delete of files via adb I got a I/O error or trying with parted showed no disks available as well btw.

In the end, after trying all of this for a full 12 hours straight, all attempts failed..

Any help would be fantastic

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aha360:
If reinstalling a ROM fails, then you might have a hard-bricked, eMMC-locked Moto G - this is known to happen to some Moto G devices that have 0% battery power and has stayed like this for a few days. You CAN try following the unbricking tutorial for the Moto G 2013 devices (Falcon/Peregrine) if you have got nothing to lose as you have ran out of options.

Speaking of which, what eMMC does your phone have? Is it a Samsung-made one, or one made by anything other than Samsung, like SanDisk?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GlennBrownie:
Do you have a link to this Tut?

Also, how would I check my eMMC ?

No harm in trying, as I replaced it with a LG X Power - only downside is not rootable yet, no recovery, nadda, stuck with stock...great phone though!

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aha360:
Not really, if your phone is stuck. However, the reason as to why I ask this question is because I want to know if certain eMMC makers are providing error-prone eMMCs or whether the logic board itself is at fault, regardless of the eMMC maker

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] santamanga:
Hi. I have a rooted aftv 1 running 5.2.1.1 with busybox installed.

I try to mount my nas via nfs.

I open up a terminal via adbFire,

#su

#mkdir /mnt/obb/nas300

#busybox mount -t nfs -o nolock,ro 192.168.0.300:/mnt/Share /mnt/obb/nas300

That will mount my share to nas300 where I can access it as root.

But how can I access that share, that directory as a normal user? (I want to access it from within retroarch)

Because when I #exit the superuser, and look into /mnt/obb/nas300, it's empty.

Also #mount doesn't show the share anymore.

As soon as I become #su again, the nas is still mounted and the share is still there.

Please help, I'm too stupid, it's killing me.

Do I have to set another mount point on the aftv? Chose a more convenient folder? Give the folder other rights?

[Moto G4 Questions & Answers] Schettini:
Hey guys,

My Moto G4 keeps crashing whenever I try to make a phone call. Every time I select to make a call it freezes and after a bit it goes home saying that the app crashed and if I want to wait or close it out. Also none of my YouTube videos want to play, whenever I select a video it loads for a second and then gives me an error that says "There was a problem while playing (Playback ID: IASD7URR43oViijA (changes on every video)) Tap to retry".

I have tried many possible solutions found on different forums such ass clearing cache, removing apps, factory reset, even went as far as to actually root and install a custom Rom(Lineage OS) and a few other things. However, both issues still persisted. At this point it's pretty frustrating and I just really want to get this fixed. Has anyone encountered this problem and has successfully been able to resolve any of them? Any assistance would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

If a factory reset did not do it and if it is still under warranty consider sending it in as it only takes about 5 business days.

Hello Everyone. I accidently flashed OP3 Resurrection Remix ROM to my OP3T. I have been using it for more than 4 months and It is rooted with some instructions I found in XDA post and it worked fine after that. Later I decided to get Resurrection Remix ROM but later I found out it was under OP3 thread. I followed steps listed in the thread and I first full wiped it, then installed Firmware & Modem 4.1.1 then the Rom and as well as the Open Gapps and then clicked to restart. I knew it will take some time to boot up and didn't at my phone for 5 minutes. After some time I look at my phone and I see it is not working and I tried to turn it on and hold the power button for some time and Tried to get to recovery and bootloader page. I tried to plug into the charger and I left it plugged in for a half hour and nothing changed and I tried to plug it in my computer and my PC didn't recognize phone was plugged in. I searched for similar problems on xda and I found one post had a little similar problem but it didn't help. I am new to xda and sorry for my bad English. Thanks.

Modded Logo.bin to eliminate "Your phone can't be trusted" banner from bootloader

I created this logo.bin to eliminate the banner appearing after unlocking bootloader.

I used the MotoLogo from this thread: https://xdaforums.com/2015-moto-g/themes-apps/mod-change-splash-screen-various-t3182994

All credits to the creator of that thread: makers_mark

Flash it using fastboot

1: Download the logo.zip provided, unzip, and put in a folder

2: after that, power off your moto z and get it in fastboot mode

3: inside the folder where logo.bin is, hold ctrl+shift and right click anywhere and select OPEN COMMAND WINDOW HERE

4: execute the following command: fastboot flash logo logo.bin

after you turn on your device the banner telling you your phone can't be trusted should be gone

Flash this at your own risk, I do not take any responsibility on any mishappening with your phone.

I hope you find it helpful
