[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SomeAndroidNewbie:
Hello everyone. My Samsung Galaxy s2 has been stuck on some message. I'm not sure what it is but it looked like a phone and warning ugh point at a computer. I don't know how to revert it. Whenever I turn on my phone, it just goes to that page. I really need help. This occurred to me when I had turned off the phone in download mode. Now it's just like that. I would really appreciate some help and thanks to whoever that do.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MigoMujahid:
Probably the warning says that the software update was interrupted, it can be fixed by booting into download mode (which would give the same Warning screen) and flash the stock rom with Odin.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Szabo Sanyi:
Hi!

I have UCU5EQA8 and want flash to U6EQC9 my 925A.

But i found ADB from QB8 to QC9 and PK5 to QC9

And Odin 4 files, to QC1

Can somebody help me?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] norbarb:
If you can't find EQA8 to EQC9 this mean file do not exist. Flash A8 to B8 and then B8 to C9.

Why people do not think sometimes?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Szabo Sanyi:
I can't find the A8 to B8.

If i get it, i do not write this post!

I'm sorry. I was under impression that i post it. Will upload soon.

[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] krazeydla:
I have disa as my primary messenger for my Huawei P8 light 2017. Even though it is set as primary and all notifications are disabled for the stock SMS messenger, I still get notifications on my lock screen for the stock app. I have gone through system to apps and disabled all notifications but they still show up. This forces me to go into the stock app and read the message even though I have read and replied through Disa. Any ideas? Thanks

How is android nougat update for you on your moto z play? I updated it over the air then reset it to factory settings via stock recovery. I am noticing comparitively faster battery drain than marshmallow.

What are your experiences?
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] sebx_g1:
Very good - no problems , battery as good on MM . No factory reset .
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] leoavi94:
My phone's battery is going down by almost 10% per hour.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] sebx_g1:
That is not normal . My moto use 30% a day max .
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] alexluz:
Huge battery drain

I finished updating to Nougat and went to sleep with ~60%, when I woke up I had barely 9%.

This is unacceptable. 50%+ while on standby is waaay too much.

I hope this was a one time thing. I really don't want to factory reset or downgrade my phone.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] leoavi94:
Oh....that's terrible! I am sure that's a one time thing. For me battery backup has noticeably reduced and ui smoothness also took a toll. I will most probably go back to MM after 1-2 days.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] leoavi94:
Whats your usage? And generally what is your SOT?
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] sebx_g1:
7-9 h SOT

[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] alexluz:
I noticed the smoothness, but I wasn't really worried about that, since the drain would happen only with display on. Stand by on the other side should be the same, which was not the case.

I'll give it a try for a couple of days and see how it behaves. If it continues I'm downgrading and let you guys know how it went.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] sruel3216:
did you go to battery settings>battery optimization>Reset app preferences?
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] leoavi94:
Not yet. Would that really do something as I have already done a hard reset after updating to nougat.

And what SOT would you call an indication of good battery backup?
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] sruel3216:
im not on my phone a ton so i dont get near the 8 hours sot as some do. i did the first charge just to see. but i can usually go 2.5 days without charging with bluetooth and location set to high accuracy at all times
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] leoavi94:
Hmm.. I just noticed that waiter charging my phone was draining comparatively faster till 60% but after that it slowed down. Out of 9 hours my SOT is 7.25hrs with one sim on 4g volte, one on 2g, and fone connected to wifi as well for most of the time. I played nova and asphalt 8 as well for like 30-40mins combined. So I think my phone is behaving normal, right?
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] sruel3216:
yeah i would say so. 7+ hours of SOT is very good. How is your idle drain overnight? I usually only drop 1-2% in 8 hours of idle (when im asleep)
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] leoavi94:
I updated it yesterday so I am not sure but i think last night it dropped 2% ( with both the Sims and mobile data on)
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] leoavi94:
It's still 16 present so I think SOT will be 8hrs plus.

Looks like it's not the phone, it's me who all of a sudden has a lot of free time ?
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] sruel3216:
yeah your phone is fine haha. I would have never got nowhere near 4 hours sot with my nexus 6. this phone is amzing
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] tag68:
If you just did the nougat update, caches aren't filled and media databases need to be updated. After a major update Android often is 2-3 days more busy internally than usual, so I guess SOT might still improve a bit.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] dedraks:
12h SOT.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] larsdennert:
There is a bt bug in nougat. When you turn off the phone it disables bt.

A work around is to disable bt scanning in the location services and reboot twice.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] alexluz:
Just to let you guys know, my moto Z went back to normal after a few charges. I'm now getting as much as I was or maybe a bit more of SOT.

No reset needed

[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] alexluz:

[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] allrightlite:
Have 18h sot at 15% display. Very good. But the battery icon in the notification bar burns in. I think that is ok, because the rest of the display is fine. It's not much, very less. Anybody with same issue?

The risk with the display is the reason why I won't open the bootloader. Maybe with Android O or next year anytime, if the display really fine.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] leoavi94:
18 hours sot without plugging your device even once??
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] allrightlite:
The battery is new, maybe that brings this. And no sim card, no SD card in use. Just Wifi with good signal. Perfect situation.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] EspElement:
I personally think I like the MM better. I went to N for a while and went back, and I really like it. Snappier and I think the battery life is better.

My thoughts.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] leoavi94:
How did you go back? I tried and bricked my phone as a result.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] allrightlite:
I'm on N since release in AOSP (Moto G), so I don't want MM anymore :laugh: Why should the old one better? N is normally the better one. There are many improvements. Don't know why people try to go back to MM. That's crazy. The only thing what I can understand is to switch to lineage os ;)

Edit: Other question: Is Android O planed/confirmed for the Z Play?
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] EspElement:
Is your phone still dead?

Here is what I did courtesy of G4liant.

First I downloaded this https://mega.nz/#!fVtBlCSC!h1-UkVh1vki_wRY8zlAcy6Da0zQP-XdnlkHBW3aHfvI << First MM Rom.

Then I flashed

fastboot flash logo logo.bin

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0

fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1

fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2

fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3

fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4

fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.5

fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.6

fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.7

fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.8

fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.9

fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.10

fastboot flash oem oem.img

After that, I couldn't side load. So G4liant told me to do this.

Boot into TWRP (not sure if it can be the Chinese one or not) recovery and connect your pc via adb. (in fastboot, type fastboot boot recovery.img < TWRP recovery). Then type the following commands, one line after the other or it could get stuck! (this creates a backup of all the partitions we are going to change to your internal sdcard, just in case):

adb shell

dd if=/dev/block/platform/soc/7824900.sdhci/by-name/modem of=/sdcard/NON-HLOS.bin

dd if=/dev/block/platform/soc/7824900.sdhci/by-name/modemst1 of=/sdcard/modemst1.img

dd if=/dev/block/platform/soc/7824900.sdhci/by-name/modemst2 of=/sdcard/modemst2.img

dd if=/dev/block/platform/soc/7824900.sdhci/by-name/fsg of=/sdcard/fsg.mbn

dd if=/dev/block/platform/soc/7824900.sdhci/by-name/dsp of=/sdcard/adspso.bin

After you are done, reboot into the bootloader and boot into the recovery which is attached below:

fastboot boot recovery-TWRP-3.0.2-20161010-MOTO_Z_PLAY-CN-wzsx150.img (if that doesn't work, just rename the file to recovery.img)

After you changed the language from chinese to english, you can backup your EFS with the recovery.

I then flashed.

fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn

fastboot erase modemst1

fastboot erase modemst2

fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin

I was able to sideload up to the December patch.

Key is to stay away from these commands.

fastboot flash partition gpt.bin

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] dedraks:
Here.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] leoavi94:
Thank you, reserved.

No, i flashed nougat firmware after which my phone started working again.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] allrightlite:
It's really no good idea to go back to MM. Hope nobody else risk their phone just because few new changes. New design/features are great and N it's faster at all the parts. Normally people want updates. If not, then this phone maybe not good for you. Maybe we get Android O and problem is back that few people don't like updates :D
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] Zriron:
I still got 7-10 hours SoT on nougat, it depends how much i use Spotify, always on LTE or WiFi. Yesterday i listen to Spotify something about 4 hours with bluetooth on to connect with car radio, on LTE something about 7, maybe 8 hours, rest on WiFi and now 22% battery left and 6h25m SoT. Disconnected from charger yesterday at 3:50 in the morning.

And i didn't make any factory reset or anything. So I'm lucky one :p
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] allrightlite:
Just 10h? Get much more on N. Yesterday 13.5h. So N can't be a problem and I have don't do a factory reset :eek: How high did you adjust the display?

Edit: Another question. Is the quick charger bad for the battery or it is not make the battery died at long time faster?
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] razorsbk:
But how the other things like Moto actions, display and gestures? Still flawless like on the MM?
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] leoavi94:
yeah. I dont use moto display, it's very annoying and a lame attempt to hide the fact that they don't want to put in a notification light. After nougat update, moto voice was not working properly for some people. For that simply uninstall Moto from your app drawer and re install it from play store. It will start working normally.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] leoavi94:
I think 10 hour is a very high output and only a handful of people are able to get it.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] tag68:
What kills battery is heat. The quickcharge is made by higher voltage. When first using quickcharge I wasn't expecting that it stays cool, but it did. My guess is now - after years of trying to get slow charging speeds to keep battery good - that quickcharge is fine for the battery.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] razorsbk:
Thank you for the answer. I'm getting 10h SOT during 2 days of use easily from 90% to 10-15%, while still on MM. Not sure whether to upgrade or not.

Some people said the phone is getting laggy after the update to Nougat or is overheating.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] tag68:
They did put one in. I saw it, but I like Moto display more. They don't support it in firmware because they say Moto display is better. I think they're right. Imho they should let the users decide what they want, but it's not my decision what Lenovo does.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] leoavi94:
No they didn't put a notification light. They have installed a charging light near the proximity sensor which lits up when you plug in the fast charger when phone is off and that too for a second.

The reason I dont like moto display is when i am working and phone is at a distance I don't want to extend my arm every now and then to check for notifications. Notification light can tell me what type of notification I have without much hassle.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] EspElement:
I am sure you are nervous but that is how you do it. It should work.

I love MM more, at least for now. Maybe 7.1.1 will be good.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] allrightlite:
There are no many differences between 7.0 and 7.1.1. My old phone had 7.1.1 and now the new one has 7.0, so I can't see many changes. Very good. What do you miss? Why 6.0.1 better?
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] MrWilsonxD:
Fantastic, this was my first full charge after updating with all the background optimization.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] Zriron:
Yeah, "just" 10h SoT 'couse I'm a driver and i always got very very weak network signal, and like i said, still on LTE with Spotify on ;) so i think it's veeery nice, i love that phone despite the fact that in Poland it's really expensive, for that money i can get S7 but that battery life, it's awesome

I received the device on Tuesday, installed all the updates and then, fully charged it on Wednesday.

Right now it's on 43% and 5h SOT, expecting to last for another 2 days... this is just ridiculous! xD

I'm in the same boat. Now I can't tell if a WhatsApp is coming from contact or a group, and that's very annoying.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] allrightlite:
Here the battery life on Android 7.0

It's very amazing. 16h sot time. Don't have problems with 7.0
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] EspElement:
No keyboard lag is a big one. Snappier and I do believe battery life is better, at least for me. I have an app that seemed to have drained more on N.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] allrightlite:
Have used android 6.0.1 for a very short time, so I can't compare. For me is android 7.0 without issues. Gboard works fast, too. Don't know what you mean. Everything is fast. I need 7.0, because the possible to change the screen size, multi windows, better battery life, better preferences in notification bar (changeable) and faster installation/updates of apps. That is all not possible with the old android 6.0 :rolleyes:
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] allrightlite:
So, here at 30%, Android 7.0, after 10h and 49m sot. And the battery can one day more :D And 6.0.1 can get more on heavy useage? I don't think so. 7.0 is the best :silly:

Edit: Still 30% and almost 11h :D This phone is just amazing.

Over 15h sot is possible and normal. That can't be better on the old MM :rolleyes:
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] leoavi94:
You are not using sim card. Its silly to compare it with phones with dual sim carda inserted and 4g running all the time.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] Jose-MXL:
In my opinion I had way better battery life with MM than I do with Nougat, I used to get 8-10 hours SoT, now it lies somewhere in the 6-8 hours SoT after updating to Nougat.

Yes I did a full wipe, clean start on Nougat, I wiped before and after the OTA, I have noticed negligible speed change in usage but major hit in battery life.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] allrightlite:
Maybe you need a new battery. How high is your display? Have it on 15% :D

At this charge I have 18h sot (4.5h = 25%). So, Android 7.0 can't be the problem. It's really good.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] Jose-MXL:
Hahahaha, good one... Usage is about the same, a little change here and there in usage doesn't cut 2 hours of average SoT, I'm pretty sure that Nougat is the culprit.

By the way I was getting 8-10 hours SoT with display to about 50% or higher when needed, I so regret updating to Nougat, I wish I could downgrade....
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] allrightlite:
I have it so low because otherwise the battery icon burns in. That's happend just there and at no other place of the screen. The phone was cheaper as normal. Maybe it was in a shopping window before or whatever :eek: Can live with this, because battery is on this phone very great. But it is interesting that N should have less battery life. What do motorola tell the people to this issue?

And, did you think about to switch to Lineage OS 14.1? Maybe that helps :o
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] Jose-MXL:
I have to unlock the bootloader first, if I go through that route, I will try LOS for sure. I have never had burn out spots or don't know to spot them, how do you spot them??
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] leoavi94:
Is there any specific gain switching to lineage os over stock rom?
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] allrightlite:
If you wish down the notification bar and take a look at the old position of the battery icon, then you can see the burn in of this icon. It's go away after few minutes. But it's not much. Maybe you should look exactly ;) You can see it, maybe. Otherwise your phone has a better panel as my one :D
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] Jose-MXL:
Other than customization possibilities, not really.

With a custom ROM there are more chances of spotting battery hogs since MANY different people will be testing and developers tend to listen to feedback, unlike OEMs which don't give a fluck...

---------- Post added at 05:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:09 PM ----------

I may indeed have a better panel than yours, mine has no signs of burn-in, also, the nav bar doesn't show burn-in if I open up a gray picture in full screen.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] allrightlite:
Maybe my panel is not so good, but the battery is amazing. With screen max I get 16h sot, too. It's just crazy on Android N.

Have 8.5h sot after 50% drain. It's really really great.

Edit: 18h sot is possible, too. Why is this possible on my phone and at another phone just 6h sot? That's crazy. This people should check their apps.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] allrightlite:
Here battery with Android 7.0 :D For me it's very good. Can't complain about that. Just 6h can't be normal. There must be another problem. Android 7.0 is fine!
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] sruel3216:
maybe send back to motorola and ask for a new phone. im pretty sure they send them out with marshmellow. i just bought one a few weeks ago and i recieved it with marshmellow.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] allrightlite:
Yes, it is. Bought it for few days and it was on Android 6.0.1 and I must install 7 updates until to Android 7.0. But it was cheaper in my case. Maybe because the burn in issue at the battery icon. But don't ask. Maybe I can get a new one, too? Just send it to motorola and then I get new one? :eek:
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] Jose-MXL:
That sounds tremendously easy to say and horribly impossible to execute, do you have any idea how hard it is to deal with Motorola for warranties? There are horror stories about it....
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] allrightlite:
That's the reason why I will live with this issue. But should it be a problem anytime, then I will try to get a new screen. Don't know the rules. Maybe not possible ;)
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] sruel3216:
i had no problem getting my nexus 6 replaced years ago. just tell them the battery is faulty. they arent going to tell you youre wrong
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] Jose-MXL:
Not bsh!ting you when I say I already chatted with them, it wasn't bad at all, talking to them is straightforward, however you really need to be lucky for the process to go through with no issues. "We haven't received your phone", "still under repair", "we'll get back to you..", "we'll get back to you..", "we'll get back to you.."

The options they gave me are 2:

1: Standard repair, send it for repair, get it repaired, get it shipped back. I bet they'll just reflash the OS and measure the battery for 15mins, then call it a day. *Read note 1*.

2: Advanced replacement, receive a refurbished one (no option for new one), pay $25 premium and a $450 temporary hold in case you don't return the phone.

Advanced replacement sounds ok, however it cranks my nerves that I might be getting a "QA tested standards" battery which is as degraded or worst than mine. There is always chances and OH BOY!, I suck at raffle games...

*Note 1: I worked at a refurbishing facility that worked for Verizon, Sprint, Metro, Criket; and that's what they used to do, very poor standards, that's why it is financially sustainable to refurbish phones and treat them like new, because they don't replace every battery and they definitely don't spend much workmanship in them, they actually make profit out of it and that's why the wheel keeps spinning.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] aviwdoowks:
Refurbished vzw phones are cesspool like fermentation garbage , older the phone more likely bad.

Moto use to be better.

Still I would not accept a refurbished
