[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richjhart:
I've been following this guide:

https://xdaforums.com/pixel-c/development/twrp-flashable-monthly-update-zip-pixel-t3375591

to try and root my Pixel C. I was initially following a different guide, but I believe I now have:

bootloader-dragon-google_smaug.7900.50.0.img and TWRP_dragon_3.1.0-2.img, loaded through fastboot

I was then able to push

Update.ZIP_PixelC_Ryu_system-vendor-boot_OPP1.zip and SuperSU-v2.79-201612051815.zip to /sdcard/ via adb in TWRP. I then tried to install both, as per the guide.

I was a bit confused when the "flashing system.img... this will take some time" part took no time at all, but it had taken a while to get to that point so I figured maybe the messages were in the wrong order or something. Both said they were successful.

Tried booting to system - just came back to TWRP.

So I thought I'd try to flash the system image back on. But I can't push any files now. Everytime I try, it creates the files then fails and I start getting read-only file system errors

If I try to install update.zip again (the one above), I now get "failed to mount '/data-full' (Device or resource busy)"

So I'm quite stuck at this point. Can't revert to stock image, can't install the new image... any help would be much appreciated!
[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peter73:
I would do the following:

Download the full factory image from here. If you want to keep all of your data extract the zip and remove "-w" from flash_all.bat or flash_all.sh (depending on your OS).

If you keep -w it wipes your settings.

Boot into fastboot and run flash_all.

It will write all data from the factory image to your device and it should boot into android again.

If your tablet is up and running you can download twrp and flash it again on your tablet.

I always flash twrp like this:

fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

fastboot boot twrp.img

if i boot into twrp it asks for a decryption-pass. I skip this and go directly to reboot and reboot into recovery. Now i will not be asked for a password and can go on flashing the latest supersu.
[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YevOmega:
I second this ^ except for the fastboot boot twrp.img part. Why do you do that? The first line should be enough.
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pime<:
Hi guys! :) So my aunt´s HTC Desire 816 had a problem with the power button. But I tried to shut it down by pressing VOL UP + Power button down to check if it really was the problem. It actually did shut down but it got into fastboot mode. Okay i went into the fastboot tab and pressed restart. It started up but it was in safe mode. So I shut it down but in the normal way, so power down and pressed on restart. But after I started it again it, again, went into fastboot mode. But this time I can´t restart it because the phone just wont get into the fastboot tab. The VOL UP button works but I can´t get into any other tabs like "show barcode" or "recovery" and so on.

BUT if I press the power button for 12 seconds the screen gets black but it just re-opens in the fastboot mode. :rolleyes: :confused:

Anyone can help?

Did anyone find a compatible virtual reality headset that fits this phone?
[Lenovo Phab 2 Pro Questions & Answers] :
I am considering this headset based on GSM specs Dimensions	179.8 x 88.6 x 10.7 mm (7.08 x 3.49 x 0.42 in):

I had one back with my S5 Active but they are not very comfortable. The sides can be removed if needed so this may be our solution till later in the year :confused:
[Lenovo Phab 2 Pro Questions & Answers] :
So after many hours of looking for a compatible vr headset I have considered this product. this headset does not restrict the horizontal dimensions of the lenova when it's turned 90 degrees as it uses a front strap, allowing you to even put a wood plank in it if you so wished to look at. The con for these is the lack of a center "over the top strap"

Hi,

Trying to use facebook in-app camera, gives a white screen. If you read very carefully, you can see that it displays a message: "sorry,the camera is not working right now . you mightneed to close any other camera apps you have running" . Turning your screen off, and immediately on again, the camera works like a charm. No other apps seem te have problems accessing the camera. All permissions are OK. Facebook app itselve works great, and starts the camera from the first time. So the problem seems to be isolated to the FB messenger app. Installing older versions to no avail... uninstalling other applications using camera... no avail.

Any thoughts?

Regards

Hi all,

In my previous android phone (samsung s3) I had the same problem, but i solved it with root and edited a simply file into system to increase (i think) decibel.

With my rooted OP3, i tried to edit a similar file like in the samsung s3 with no results, then i have install viper4android and EX kelnel to boost audio, but the sound increases distorting the file....

Do you have a solution.... ?

The problem come when i raise the volume, the bass are distorted.

I usually download mp3 from youtube at 320kbps, i tried also other way like torrent, but audio quality looks the same.

Grabbed a 32gb on Jet.com for my mother for $290 after that 15% of first three orders code (max $20). Got the Axon 7 on Jet.com for $325 last year. You can save $10 just using their opt-out of free returns, etc. Some nice deals to be had if you can stack savings around $30 in total.

I've seen them for as low as $240 but never needed one. The front speakers are why I chose the A7 over the Honor 8. Hopefully the speaker isnt as bad as the 5X she is replacing. Almost went with the Moto G5.

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Trainer_Red:
This phone is quite old but I've only recently had the courage to open it up to try to fix it.

I've tried to flash the stock firmware when I could access recovery mode but it says that it couldn't install it from the SD Card.

I've tried plugging it in to my computer but the phone doesn't boot.

The phone wasn't rooted or messed with in anyway. The battery life on it just slowly went down and down until it is in the state now where it can't get past the boot logo. It doesn't even get to the boot animation either.

I'm just seeing if I can try to restore the phone to its former glory at all, whether it be a parts replacement or a software fix.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] kolembo:
It's a great phone!

Just got mine working.... It was so nicely built.

Of course, it's waaaay beyond really practical but it works well. Even the camera is still good as long as you replace the rear cover-plus-lens

You need to replace the battery...cheap from eBay

Replacing it however, is very difficult to do well so find a shop
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Trainer_Red:
I actually managed to remove the battery to see if the battery was the problem in anyway. It still acts the same way when the battery is removed. I would spend the money to buy a new battery but I just want to make sure that it is the most likely problem.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] kolembo:
Re-download your recovery firmware... Sometimes it's as simple as a corrupt file - is happened to me! Also, Leave it plugged in over night with the battery on.... It won't rescue the battery if it's dead but it's happened when with my last battery it was dead and the overnight got it to at least boot up and switch on before it powered off again.

It's worth getting it running. The only phone slimmer now is the Moto...and that has a huge camera bump!

The screen is great, the colors are lovely and if it's stock firmware, EMUI is at its quirky best.

It's a great feeling in the hands and I'm enjoying using it again.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Trainer_Red:
A big problem is that my phone won't install the firmware from SD Card for some reason. I've also tried to charging but that no use.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] kolembo:
Have you tried copying the firmware to phone internal memory?
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Trainer_Red:
It won't boot into recovery when plugged into my computer.

Edit: I managed to boot into system and use the local update function to install the firmware. It works once again! This phone has been dead for a couple years now and I'm glad to see it back now. I ripped the ribbon cable for the battery so I'm gonna buy a new one. Thanks for the help!

Hi there!

I'm newby with android and unlocking the device. My device ZTE Axon 7 A2017G

I want a device running on Lineage os. So I try since 3 days to backup and flash the recovery with axon7tool.

I get always the error message: failed to connect.

I try to install the driver with zadig and now i see the Q...BULK device but still become this error...

I was on android 7.1 B01 and now have downgraded to android 6.0.1 (A2017GV1.0.0B10)

Still the same error.

I changed the computer, still this stupid error.

Can anybody help me, I'm frustrated... :(
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] senny22:
I had this issue and solved it by showing all file extensions in windows. When you rename the recovery.img to recovery.bin you have to make sure that it's actually an BIN file and so you need to have show all file extensions on in the windows settings.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] bearbeer:
thanks for your answer.

I'm realy shure that I have activated this option, because of other development stuff :D

Even the first command in each tutorial is not working: "axon7tool -r gpt boot recovery"

When I disconnect my axon and then run the command again I become this error: "Device not connected/found, Failed to connect"

So this means, if I connect the device and I see only the error: "Failed to connect"

the axon7tool see my device but can't connect to them?

p.s. after the downgrad from android 7.1 to 6.0.1 I don't see any updates such as android 7 and I haven't a connection to mobile data (3G/4G). Very frustrated when I want to use whatsapp outdoor :(

- WWAN-DHCIP is not used to get IPAddress

- ETHNER-DHCP is used to get IPAddress
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] KwesiJnr:
First, make sure your device is in EDL mode.

1. On opening the Zadig tool, click on Options from the top, then List All Devices. That should display your phone in the dropdown section now. It should be something like QUSB_BULK.

2. After selecting QUSB_BULK, you can click on the big Replace Driver button. On completion, try the axon7tool once again. It should not fail this time.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] bearbeer:
oh wow! One step further.

The tool waits a second an then I see this error:

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] KwesiJnr:
Good, reboot your device into EDL mode once more and try again.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] bearbeer:
yeah!! It works thanks!

Now I have a flashed recovery. Next step is to unlock the bootloader. For all of it I follow this tutorial: https://xdaforums.com/axon-7/how-to/guide-how-to-unlock-bootloader-stay-t3461165

After I restart the bootloader "adb reboot bootloader" (step 7) I should see my device with "fastboot devices", but it shows me no device. What can I do?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] KwesiJnr:
Okay, it is time to reinstall the Qualcomm Driver. The driver from Zadig was only for EDL mode (at least that's how I saw it). You remember the QUD.WIN.1.1 Installer-10039.2.zip I posted earlier? Install that and reboot your PC.

Note: I'd normally recommend rebooting the PC into Driver Enforcing mode before installing the Qualcomm driver to avoid any install problems. It may not be necessary, but it does make the install foolproof.

---------- Post added at 03:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:30 PM ----------

Do remember to check Device Manager to make sure your device is recognized in fastboot mode. If it isn't, try installing the ADB driver from here.

If your bootloader is unlocked and you have installed TWRP Custom Recovery, all you have to do is flash the Nougat Bootstack. You can then proceed to flash/install all LOS and LOS-based ROMs. I'm currently running ResurrectionRemix.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] bearbeer:
Ok I have flashed the TWRP Recovery (not the latest because the latest boot not up) and unlocked the bootloader. What's the Nougat Bootstack and how do I install it? :o
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] KwesiJnr:
Visit the Official LineageOS thread for Axon 7. It has all the steps you need to successfully install LOS on your device. Make sure you install the Universal Bootloader & Modem Package specific to your device.

Also, about the TWRP. The newer versions don't work without flashing an older version. Once the older version is installed, you can then upgrade to a newer version.

0. Reboot to TWRP, then copy the desired Recovery Image file you want to upgrade to, (e.g. twrp-3.1.0.0-ailsa_ii.img) to your Internal Storage.

1. Tap Install Image from the lower right corner. Proceed to select the recovery image you just copied to your device.

2. You should now see a radio list. Select Recovery, then swipe to flash.

3. Reboot.

That is all.

Alternatively, you can flash the recovery upgrade file via fastboot, like you did the older version. Just make sure you flash the older version first, THEN the newer. Should work like a charm.
