Hi,

i get error : can't verify package
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Guides, News, & Discussion] mo976:
I was also stuck on the 8.0.3.0 global and was also not able to update to the newer stable 8.2...

But good news I updated with Dev version global 7.5.25 and success! I now have the unlock status in developer options

Still need to actually unlock it but :)

Update: I unlocked it and it works like a charm
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Guides, News, & Discussion] bpodnar:
Do I need to apply for bootloader unlock permission over Xiaomi unlock web site? I did that thing with adding the device in developer options and started Mi unlock tool and it goes to 99% and then gave me a message to wait for 72 hours to unlock. I'm a littlebit confused because I cant get to web site to apply for bootloader unlock it is really frustrating because it redirects me to download Mi Unlock tool all the time.
[HTC Vox] jacopastorius:
I have a no brand htc s710 with 1.15 italian-english UK-english US rom. I'm going to flash with 1.27 ARA rom in the next days. If i will want resume my original rom in the future i think i can flash the one i found on ftp xda site that is just the same of my original rom (1.15 italian-english UK-english US). I downloaded it but it is in .raw and comes with 3 .raw files. What is the tool to flash the raw roms? Can i use the USPL tool or there's the need to convert it in .exe??
[HTC Vox] jacopastorius:
no one can help me??
[HTC Vox] frauhottelmann:
You have to extract the raw! Look in the wiki on how to dump the ROM. There you will find this line:

E:\Documents\itsutils>pdocread -w -d DSK1: -p Part02 0 0x3567000 Part02.raw

It extracts the raw from the ROM into a folder, you just have to adjust it to the location of your *.raw files! But I don't know how you get the 0x3567000, because that was a different number for my ROM, so I don't know if it is the same for your file! Then you get one folder with all files and you can sort it with pkgtools. Look in the Wiki http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Vox_HowToDumpRom
[HTC Vox] jacopastorius:
ok..thank you! So after running pkgtools i'll get the SYS and OEM folders but, ok, but...how can i flash this extracted rom to my phone??
[HTC Vox] frauhottelmann:
I have never done it, but it should work. But you should ask Dr Martin Gonzo.

Get the kitchen and replace the SYS and OEM folder and build a ROM. But first ask in the kitchen thread!
[HTC Vox] jacopastorius:
ok thank you very much! But i'm surprised that people who flashed his vox didn't face this problem yet. Don't you feel the need to be able to restore the original htc rom, one day, just in case, to benefit the htc support?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Godspeed123:
So all my previous phone have all been rooted and custom rom.

Just bought the LG g4 and tried rooting but when I unlocked the bootloader it went into bootloop.

Sent it to LG for repair and waited a week and just got it back.

I'm scared to try it again.

Suggestions?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Avantu:
Depends. I've rooted mine and i don't really use root anyway. Only benefit of unlocked bootloader and root is when u want to use apps like viper4android or flash Nougat roms. I'm now using simplegx rom and it is pretty stock, plus the safetynet isn't passing because of bootloader. Imo the best would be if LG just could release Nougat, but they will do it at the end of a year i guess.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Godspeed123:
Thanks for your input
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcscruff:
The boot loader is nothing to do with the safety net. I use android pay on my phone.

As for rooting, I use it for a few things. Mostly adblockers these days. So unless you have an app that you need it for probably not.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMadScientist:
Now in my case rooting is a must. Yea i use viper. But between xposed. And stuff like bloat removal not just disable. Normally i end up with sprint phones and im not a sprint customer. Usaully require root to unlock. And now aparantly modify the apn setting too on the g4. Battery life mods.

Lol couldnt live without it
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niftium:
There are a few xposed modules that I can't live without, so root is a must. In my experience, custom ROMs often introduce issues with the camera, so I'm not going crazy waiting for my H810 to get an unofficial bootloader unlock (though I'm following that development closely out of nerdy curiosity). Plus everything [MENTION=5759239]TheMadScientist420[/MENTION] mentioned.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMadScientist:
Im a stock rom kinda guy so unlocked bl isnt a must as long as i can modify stock system how i need.

My biggest thkng is i use after market. Old htc sense flip clock so hiding clock in staus bar is a must also has a battery gauge. So gotta hide batter meter too. I hate stuffed up notification bars. Plus. Like my note 5 has no usb port so wifi file transfer adb through wifi and such is a must there.

Which sammy just beat lg. Nougat just came out for my note 5 but i cant odin back stock due to no usb port. So i have to wait for a ftwrp flashable version.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mauecky:
Root and adaway is absolutely minimum. Than U can have xposed and the "gate" is open.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Godspeed123:
I just don't wanna bootloop again
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Avantu:
Actually safetynet can check if bootloader is unlocked so it has a lot to do. There are some kernel tweaks that hide bootloader status but i havn't seen it on any g4 kernel. I'm not passing safetynet after unlocking and using stock roms like simplegx or imperium. I havn't tried flashing stock kdz tho. What are your software then that doesn't trigger safetynet? Would be helpful :)

Hi everyone,

I'm using ASUS Zenfone 3 max 5.5' (code name: ZC553KL), android latest version 6.0.1, offical rom (don't root anything).

Some times I have issue with SD card and audio jack.

- SD Card was removed (seem it was unplugged from device - not unmounted) , when restart device, it appear again.

- When unplugged audio jack, it still notice that audio jack is connected.

I have plan raisue this issue on ASUS zenfone forum, but I don't have permission :(

I hope ASUS Zenfone 3 developer team will check and fix this issue soon.

I record this issue video, because I can't post other link here, plz goto Youtube, and find "ASUS ZC553KL - ISSUE SDCard and JackHeadPhone" for see this.

plz refer: www*youtube*com/watch?v=lq9QZ-bfzZw

Thanks.

*Updated: This issue I facing is in version ww_13.0.0.187_20170206. When I update (via check system update) to version ww.13.0.0.190_20170401, I don't see it, maybe it fixed in that release. Thank ASUS zenfone team very much. I'm really in love your products and your service ^^
[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] nicknacknuke:
I also have problem with mic.

It's actually a persistent problem. Updated twice since i bought it.

Current ver : ww.13.0.0.190_20170401

- The other party only hear crackling sounds when i make a call,

- Video recorded also record crackling sounds.

It was just fine 1 day before, there's a video i recorded with clear sounds.

I am not sure whether it's a s/w or h/w problem., but this phone is only THREE days old !

ASUS should've made a better QA tests before pushing f/w updates....

darn it...

Could you help me find a guide for adblock install and in-app purchases?
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] SpasilliumNexus:
Google "AdAway XDA". The first result is the thread for the AdAway app.

And what do you mean in-app purchases? You install an app from the Play Store, tap the in-app button, add your gift card and/or credit/debit card (if required), buy.

If you're talking about circumvention, you are NOT going to get help here, AT ALL. This is not one of those places for that mess.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] nikhil.agrawal:
Ad block you don't need any guide. Just install the apk from f-droid. When you'll open the app it will prompt you to grant root access. Just click yes and you have to enable adblock from the app.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] redpoint73:
I know you are new here, and here is some friendly advice:

1) Search before you post! Most of the info you want, and probably ever want, is already on XDA. It's probably been asked and answered before, probably numerous times. There are a number of guides posted for basic things, like how to root. Just using the search function, or for that matter just browsing through the thread titles will often yield a lot of the info you are looking for. Also, there are resource threads like the Index at the top of the 3T "Guides, News & Discussion" section, which organizes a lot of the useful threads and other resources (with links). Be sure to take advantage of these threads "sticky" to the top of each section.

Only after you have done your due diligence, and can't find what you're looking for, should you make a new thread. If every person who was wondering "how to root" made a new thread asking that, this whole website would quickly become a cluttered, useless mess. The folks here are happy to provide help and try to answer your questions, but only after you've taken at least a little time to try to find the answer yourself.

2) You need to

slow down

and do some learning and reading. This is something you should have done

before

starting to do any of the steps toward root. Halfway down the phone modding rabbit hole is not the time to be asking questions like "how do I put the SuperSU zip on the phone".

I've been around here a long time, and modded/rooted a lot of devices. Even so, every time I get a new device, I spend at least an hour or two reading about the root methods (plus possible pitfalls, issues, etc.) for that specific device (as every one has it's own peculiarities and nuances). I simply can't fathom jumping into the root/mod process without this

minimum

due diligence.

3) Make sure you understand the meaning and implications of an unlocked bootloader, root, etc. There are benefits, and there are also risks. When someone comes on here asking the questions you are asking, what often comes to mind is that a person with that lack of knowledge has no business having root. This isn't to be mean, it's just a fact (at least as I see it).

Side note: I'm not a fan of YouTube guides. They have a place, in conjunction with (but

not

a replacement for) proper reading and understanding. Just following one of those videos, without doing any other learning, is going to get you in trouble. You'll only know enough to get yourself into a jam (which is inevitable if you play with these devices), without a clue of how to get out. Know (at a minimum) how to recover or get back to stock. Case in point, the linked video skipped what is to me, a critical step. You should

always

make a TWRP backup before flashing any mods like root or custom ROM. It's not technically a "requirement" but to me, its a must. This gives you an easy way out, if anything goes wrong (and it eventually will). Sure, there are other ways to recover. But the simple step of making a TWRP backup is one way, that doesn't require any additional downloads, tools, etc. It's simply a no-brainer to me, to do this.

Hi,

It is difficult to use strava in this version (Huami AmazFit / Xiaomi AmazFit PACE | rel 9 | 1.2.14 dev).

I think I figured out a solution ... at least in my it worked 100%

1- Install Amazfit App CN version

2- Log in.

3- Install titanium backup

4- Backup the Amazfit App + Data

5- Uninstall Amazfit App

6- Go to Play Store and install the Amazfit App ( dont log in)

7- Go to titanium backup and restore only the data

Done… now you should have STRAVA working

Best hopes :)

See you.

Does not work.

my cn amazfit is working fine sync with strava from begining,

this is how i do it:

• install Amazfit app cn version (must old version, i use v1.1.5);

• scan barcode with amazfit,

• login with mi account, and sync with MiFit

• now the trick, without uninstall Amazfit app cn old version, you go to PlayStore and update the Amazfit App.

• now you get the us version app, and still connected with Amazfit, and you setup sync with Strava

• now you every time you sync, you sync with MiFit and Strava

Are you sure that your data gets synced to Mi Fit? I did exactly as you described and it doesn't sync. Mi Fit says it's connected to the watch, but the data does not get synced.

[Galaxy S5 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kom-pakt:
Several users (including myself) have pointed out that the automatic brightness doesn't work as before the 6.0.1 update.

Here are some of the reports:

So far I've tried running the phone without anything on it like Xposed or any apps beside the stock ones and it hasn't fixed the issue. What I do know is that it's definitely not a hardware issue since the light sensor works as it's supposed - you can test yours by entering the service menu by typing *#0*# from the dialer. I am currently running the German DBT firmware but I'm currently in the process of flashing the South East Europe SEE firmware which is different only in the security patch, so if the problem persists then I will know for sure it's not a DBT-only problem.

How many of you have this issue as well? Also, which version of the firmware are you running?
[Galaxy S5 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Myke72:
Me too. Also DBT FW with 6.01. Flashlight has also an issue in the dark.

I wrote to Samsung to report the brightness bug and they said

"I'm sorry about the problem you are having, but are not officially anomalies on this issue."

"This is because with the automatic adjustment of brightness, of course, the stronger the external light source, the lower the brightness of the device.

In any case, since the restore operation has had positive consequences, I invite you to use the manual brightness adjustment when you can not see the screen properly.

alternatively, if the problem is particularly heavy, you will be able to view the problem at one of our authorized service centers. " :rolleyes:

Does anyone have realy bad battery Problems too? (See my thread...)
[Galaxy S5 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alex3453:
I have the same problem - I made a video of it below. It's a serious usability problem - makes it very hard to use in sunlight.

As a kind of workaround you can put your thumb over the light sensor as you wake it up, then it will wake up dim but still visible. Eventually it will adjust and brighten to match the sunlight. But this is slow and awkward and needs two hands.

The reply you got from Samsung is ridiculous. For a start, the stronger the external light source, the stronger the brightness of the device - they have it the wrong way around. Anyway, it is obviously a major usability problem and I can't believe they are dismissing it. (And manual brightness is not an answer of course.)

I don't use to write in the forum, but I must say 'me too'. If someone knows a working Marshmallow ROM for the G800F. The thumb "workaaround" is the only one working for me..
[Galaxy S5 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kom-pakt:
I strongly encourage everyone facing this problem to write an e-mail to Samsung through their official website. In your e-mails make sure you note that this problem is definitely caused by a software issue and not a hardware issue - the auto brightness worked fine with KitKat and Lollipop, but not with Marshmallow. We need to bring this to their attention so they can fix it in a firmware update and the only way to do this is to send them as many reports as possible.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alex3453:
I'll do this. Do you know the best email address to use? Also I'll drop in at the nearby Samsung shop (hopefully on a sunny day) and see what they say.

I'm surprised that this bug isn't much more widely talked about given that it's a major usability problem, and given that the S5 mini is a popular phone (hundreds of thousands, maybe millions?, sold). So I wonder if it's possible that there is something special about our phones, and the bug doesn't happen on most people's devices. But I can't think what it would be. I've not done anything unusual with my phone - it's just a standard out-of-the box phone running the official operating system.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kom-pakt:
Use the official Samsung website (for your region) to report the issue. Browse a bit and you'll find the form.

It's strange that the number of people affected by this issue seems relatively small, keeping in mind that XDA is a forum where a typical user is usually a power user. Also it's not a region-specific issue or caused by an app or something else. For example I thought that maybe Xposed is causing a conflict so I did a complete wipe and flashed a fresh firmware, used the phone like that without any apps for a couple of days but the autobrightness issue was still there. Tried a different firmware version as well but nothing helps. Again, it's definitely not a hardware issue - test yours by typing *#0*# from the dialpad to enter the service menu and test the sensor yourself.

Hello I have the brightness issue too (G800FXXU1CQD1) official french ROM, since I upgraded to 6.0.1.

I tried with different wall chargers. When I plug them, the charging led doesn't turn on. The battery charging icon in the status line on top doesn't indicate charging.

But if I leave the device for some time and reboot, the battery level increases. So it means that it charges !!
