[Miscellaneous Android Development] MotoJunkie01:
From what I can gather, the Virgin Mobile variant has only a "Y538" nomenclature. I've checked my own VM Huawei Union - under Settings (About Phone), the build.prop, and the manufacturer stickers under the battery -- and I have not ran across the A1 addendum.

However, there are in fact two VM variants: Virgin Mobile Data Done Right abd Virgin Mobile USA. I have confirmed that the firmware package works on both of these variants.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Yasir4007:
Not working

Sir i try to install on my huawei y538 but it is not working
[Miscellaneous Android Development] MotoJunkie01:
If you follow the steps exactly, you should have no problems. Please detail every step you have taken and the results. I'll see if I can help you troubleshoot it. First, is your Y538 a Virgin Mobile or Boost Mobile variant?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Yasir4007:
my phone is:

huawei y538

it is Virgin Mobile

i take following steps:

1.i download it from given link

2. i format my sd card and i create a folder "dload"

3. i put UPDATE.APP in dload folder

4. i press vol-up and vol-down+power key

after 5 second it's show a message "software install failed"
[Miscellaneous Android Development] MotoJunkie01:
Out of curiosity, do you normally have any trouble booting into stock recovery? The reason I ask, is that if your stock recovery partition is corrupt or inoperable, the firmware package will not flash.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Yasir4007:
if it's corrupt, then what should i do?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] MotoJunkie01:
One option is to ask here on the thread for a member to share a recovery image from their Y538. The bootloader on the Y538 is unlockable through Huawei's website. Once unlocked, you can flash a new stock recovery via fastboot mode.

I have requested a stock recovery image on the thread and I will search my own firmware archives to see if I can find you one.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] MotoJunkie01:
To help our fellow member [MENTION=8209287]Yasir4007[/MENTION], I am requesting a stock recovery image from any owner of a Y538 Virgin Mobile device. Anybody with root can dump a recovery image using Flashfire, Rashr, and a number of other on-device flashing applications. Your help would be greatly appreciated and would go further in helping this Y538 support thread grow. I currently have a working TWRP custom recovery for this device; however, stock recovery is needed for [MENTION=8209287]Yasir4007[/MENTION] to flash the stock firmware package on the OP. Thank you....

My device is currently on loan so I am unable myself to dump a stock recovery image.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Yasir4007:
What is stock recovery image?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ResistanceIsFutile:
It's the one that ships with your phone when it was new, that has the carrier tweaks or version of Android used as it was launched to the public.

I'm not at all familiar with your phone or this Thread - so I'll be no further help to you. :(

As MotoJunkie01 said you need it to flash something in the OP of this Thread.

For any other understanding or help - I hope someone else chimes in to help you as MJ will be out of contact for a month or maybe longer.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] MotoJunkie01:
The stock recovery image is an exact copy of the

/recovery partition from the device. If you have root, download an app called Partition Backup & Restore from the Play Store. The app is free and was developed by [MENTION=3562083]wanam[/MENTION]. In addition to root, it is also sometimes necessary to set SELinux mode to "permissive". When you open the app, it will provide you with a list of around 35 partitions, which make up the filesystem for the Y538. In the app settings, choose .img format for your backup, then select "recovery" from the partition list, and hit the start button in the bottom right of the screen. The app will effectively dump (make an exact copy) of the recovery partition, which should be 16.0 MB in size. Stock recovery is needed to install the stock firmware package. (When holding the hardware keys with the device powered off, the stock recovery "looks" for a firmware package in the /dload folder of the external micro SD card and, once recognized, automatically commences the flashing process.)

I have provided the above instructions so that a fellow XDA member may create & provide a stock recovery image that we may use to fix your device.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] digitalanarchy:
Here is the stock recovery for the Y538: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4336Upq-6a2dWNHTWxZM2p1V2M/view?usp=drivesdk

It can be flashed using:

fastboot flash recovery y538_stock_recovery.img
[Miscellaneous Android Development] MotoJunkie01:
[MENTION=2907550]digitalanarchy[/MENTION] thank you for the stock recovery image for the Y538. I'm in hopes that this thread and development for this device will continue to grow. I have a working TWRP custom recovery for the Y538 that I will be posting, along with a guide -- probably tonight.

hello, i hope you guys are doing good

i have a V20 sprint tried to perchance an unlock on ebay and it didn't work, an APK to show the hidden manu and change some settings and he did all that but it just didn't work on mine

now i am stuck with a V20 that i cant sim use, any other ways to unlock it ? or can you tell me the exact steps to do that APK unlock maybe the ebay guy wasn't doing it right

i dont want to flash a different rom cause i have no idea how and i dont want to end up bricking it

thank you
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] elijah420:
i am more than willing to give you an assist if you still desire, but you will have to clarify exactly what you did. If English is not your first language, accept my apologies, but I cannot understand you.

flashing a different ROM/carrier unlock/hidden menu stuff are all differing subjects, with differing routes to completion.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] li_storm:
yes i am still looking for a solution, i would appreciate your help :)

what i did is that i bought a service on eBay, he emailed me an apk called Quick_Fix.apk ( to show the hidden menu ) and these are the instructions

Look for the HiddenMenuCall app on your phone and open it, then scroll and select the following menus & sub menus within:

1-IOT(CDG2).

2-LTE setting

3-Operation Mode.

4-Lab Network (V20 will now restart)

Then Turn Off - Insert SIM card and restart and it will be unlocked

that is all i did, and it was supposed to work but it didn't on mine
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] elijah420:
I see. So you are trying to pull up a hidden menu on your v20?

What setting are you trying to alter? Wireless tethering? Are you rooted (I am going to take a stab here and say no, you arent)?

Are you trying to carrier unlock your phone? I'm just trying to figure out what you are trying to accomplish?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] li_storm:
yes i want to carrier unlock the phone that is it

i am not trying to alter any settings unless it is for the reason stated above, and you are right i am not rooted, still stock android 7

after i pulled up the hidden menu i did these steps like the instructions i received

1- i went to IOT(CDG2).

2-then LTE setting

3-then Operation Mode.

4-i changed it to Lab Network

i can do a reset and everything goes back to as before, no big deal

any ideas how to carrier unlock this sprint V20 ?

any other questions let me know :)
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] elijah420:
Unless you've taken the 'zv6' update, follow the rooting\dirty santa post.

Flash ROM for desired carrier.

Caveat: depending on your technical skill abilities, you've a chance of rendering your phone permanently useless. Be forewarned.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] themorgs:
Hi,

I'm a new Honor 6X owner and am really pleased with the phone so far.

Only problem is, it didn't seem to want to play nicely with my Fitbit Flex2.

I've seen other people posting issues with Bluetooth pairing problems and I know the Honor 6X is not listed as a compatible device on the Fitbit site.

What I was wondering was if it is possible this problem could be fixed in the upcoming EMUI 5 update? Is it possible this is a software issue or is it hardware?

Any help will​ be greatly appreciated.

If you are rooted, you can copy the downloaded file and post it here. Usually it is located in "/data/data/com.motorola.ccc.ota/app_download" and the name starts with "Blur_Version...."

Then un-root and update if you want. Or not...

If i update i wont be able to root back right?
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] Btrusa:
Unfortunately, SuperSU does not work on 7.0 YET. I recommend you use Magisk root method that you can fond somewhere on XDA. And, given that you rooted, I imagine that you have a custom recovery. You will need to flash your stock recovery before you update in order for the OTA to be successful.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] echo92:
Interestingly, the build is NPJS 25.93-14.4 - perhaps the S means it's a security patch (which would make sense given the update notes)?

As for rooting with SuperSU, the existing method with ElementalX/SuperSU may still work, but until more people have the update and tested it, we can't say. That particular update is not here in the UK, so it could be territory specific or taking time to deploy.

Hi guys,

I just got a update for the gear s2 for the Netherlands.

It's a small update.
[Samsung Gear S2] ThinkD:
It also arrived in Germany.

Changes in the weather app - other icons - time unfortunately is 1 hour wrong :(
[Samsung Gear S2] porio:
I got the same update in Chile, too. I haven't noticed any difference yet.
[Samsung Gear S2] ThinkD:
Do you have the correct time in weather app? In Berlin I have 1 hour different at top of the weather screen.
[Samsung Gear S2] porio:
Yes, I have that too! I didn't notice. Do you have Daylight Saving Time in Germany now? Because we have it here, and thus an explanation can be that the Weather app is not making use of the DST flag.

What is the most effective way of letting Samsung developers know about this?

P.S.: What if.... the app is trying to make us believe it is looking into the future? After all, it's a forecast! :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:
[Samsung Gear S2] ThinkD:
Yes, we have Daylight Saving Time in Germany since 2 weeks. Maybe that's the problem.

So we will probably have to look into the future for half a year :cowboy:. Because I do not think - from my experience - Samsung will correct that because firmware development for GearS2 is out :rolleyes:
[Samsung Gear S2] humungus_1971:
Tout s'est bien passé depuis la mise à jour. Les applications fonctionnent toutes pour les notifications aussi.

Merci à Samsung pour cette mise à jour de la S2.

Il ne manque plus qu'un peu plus d'applications utiles et enfin à nouveau le Nike Running fonctionnel avec la nouvelle version sur Android. Parce que S Health est pas mal mais pas au niveau de ce que propose Nike Running. Il paraît que Nike serait dessus, alors on attend, encore...

Moderator Edit:

Everything has gone well since the update. The applications all work for notifications as well.

Thanks to Samsung for this update of the S2.

It lacks more than a few more useful applications and finally again the Nike Running functional with the new version on Android. Because S Health is not bad but not at the level of what Nike offers Running. It seems that Nike will be on it, so we wait, again .

Try with the dialler method, plus make sure the phone is disconnected from your computer before running the update.

Using your dialler, enter *#*#2846579#*#* to access the Project Menu > 4. Software Upgrade > 1. SDcard Upgrade.

Once you're on B370, check for OTA updates via Settings > Update. If nothing offered, you could manually install the latest: [Firmware] Huawei P8 GRA-L09 B394 29/03/17

Like before, via the dialler method & after disconnecting from your computer.

Alright, will try now. Another problem is that I'm trying to delete the previous update i tried installing (which is now corrupt) from the DLOAD folder (file called UPDATE.APP) but it won't let me (even tried connecting to pc and deleting but it comes back).. It's taking 2.8gb of the Internal storage and isn't deleting.. How do i get rid of it?

Edit: So I download the update to the DLOAD folder in the SD card and unzip it from there?
[Huawei P8 Questions & Answers] GaT7:
That could be a bit of a problem getting rid of. Also, the update process will probably try to install it again (instead of your re-downloaded good copy), which will not work again.

Unzip it on your PC first, then copy Update.app to the SD card/dload folder - by 'SD card' do you mean external SD card?

I don't think this is going to work anyway, unless you can find a way to delete the old Update.app file from the internal storage.
[Huawei P8 Questions & Answers] salim8:
Yep, SD card as external SD card. And alright, I'm going to try to find a way to get rid of the old update.app file.. Going to backup everything (except the update.app) and factory reset to see if I can get rid of it..
[Huawei P8 Questions & Answers] salim8:
So I managed to get rid of the corrupt Update.app and unzipped the new one, but it stopped at 19% again, but this time said it failed and allowed me to reboot (didn't have to hard reset).. Not sure what the problem is?

EDIT: nvm, I tried for a second time and it's fully installed and have EMUI 4.0.1 running.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ttown:
I am coming from the Galaxy S7 Edge, and was convinced I would get the Galaxy S8. I really like the S7E, but occasionally found it just a tad too big in the pocket depending on what pants I wore. Then I walked into Best Buy and saw both phones side by side. After playing around with both for 15 minutes, I have to say I am leaning towards the S8+ now. The S8 just looks too small, while the S8+ seems to be a close match to the S7E. It's almost the same width, but about a quarter inch taller. I'm also thinking the S8+ is going to have a small advantage over the S8 when it comes to battery life. My one hesitation is how tall the S8+ is. By the time I put a case on the S8+, is it going to be too big to pocket?

Anyways, I'm just curious what size you guys/gals are going to get. Please post your response in the poll.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] easyguy:
I felt the same way when I walked into a T-Mobile store, I wanted the S8 regular at first, but after seeing them side by side, the regular was just too small. The Plus looked fine to me, maybe because I'm so used to carrying a bigger phone around. Coming from the V20, even with a case on the S8+, I think the size will be comparable.
