[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hoangnnm:
Thanks for the reply.

I only have 4 mode in my network mode :

- CDMA

- LTE/CDMA

- GSM/UTMS

- Automatic

If I chose CDMA or LTE/CDMA there won't be any signal at all, the working options are GSM/UTMS and Automatic which I assume is the GSM/UTMS itselft.

Any ideas :( ??
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodeNameRedNeck:
Did you get Sprint to unlock your phone for a different carrier before you left? Those APN settings have to be set exactly right and you must save it. Once you change your network mode it may take a bit to get signal.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hoangnnm:
No, unfortunately I bought the phone in Vietnam, are there other ways to solve this? Like rooting the device and make some system changes?
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodeNameRedNeck:
I do not know if rooting it would do you any good. I am not sure if changing the firmware would allow you to change carriers. I am not even positive that's the problem. Did it ask for some kind of code after you inserted the new SIM?

Is it a data only SIM? I think it needs to be a data only SIM being a CDMA phone.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hoangnnm:
Hi RedNeck, sorry for the late reply.

No it did not ask for any code when I inserting the SIM, the SIM is capable of Call and SMS.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodeNameRedNeck:
No problem. I could be wrong but I am pretty sure your Sprint phone is CDMA and I am pretty sure that the only thing your phone uses your SIM card for is LTE data. So if I am correct you need a SIM that is data only. The other phone it works in, is it CDMA or GSM?
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hoangnnm:
Thanks for the quick reply.

Actually I don't know anything about the CDMA or GSM things. Here is the result I got from googling the spec of the other phone :

Technology

GSM / HSPA / LTE

So, assuming you're right, can I just "disable" the calling and SMS function of the SIM, make it to become a data only SIM? I already got into a 6 month contract here, so I can't change the contract type in about 5 months !!!
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodeNameRedNeck:
You are welcome. I do not think you can do that to a SIM. The other phone sounds like a GSM phone and if the SIM works in that phone it will not work in a CDMA phone. I would go to your new carrier and ask if there is anything they can help you with. That's assuming that you are not carrier locked to Sprint. Then you have the fact that the CDMA SIM will not work in your other phone.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hoangnnm:
Thanks, but are you sure this is a CDMA Phone? Because when I change the Network Mode to CDMA or LTE/CDMA, the phone will lose all the signal?
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodeNameRedNeck:
http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2407896,00.asp

Yes I am sure. I have seen CDMA carrier phones that were refurbished by third parties that "claim" they are unlocked for GSM carriers. I am not sure how much I trust that. You may hit up Sprint support and see if there is something they can do for you. If you bought it on contract from them they may not do anything for you.

Good luck.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] raymechanic:
Thanks to these wonderful people http://droid.cs.fau.de/ . Those of us still using the bionic can keep pace with the rest of the world.

I just did a fresh install of Lineage 14.1, OpenGapps 7.1 nano, and data restore from my backup. So far everything looks good. I will update if I find any major problems.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] raymechanic:
Update: So far everything is seems to be working except tethering. I try a total clean install and a dirty flash.

Update 2: dirty flash works but still no tethering.

Update 3: total clean install works, still no tethering and the GPS did not won't to lock on.

This appears to be a school project so i don't know how long they will keep it going. They seem to release once a week so i will check for a new one on the 18th.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] raymechanic:
No update as of yet. I did find out this is Stargo's work from the Droid4 . https://xdaforums.com/droid-4/development/rom-cm14-1-nougat-t3499338. I did upate to CM14.1 (dirty) and it works really well. I tried to dirty flash to Lineage14.1 and everything seems to work except teathering. Thanks Stargo.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] J-Lindo:
Curious, have you had any luck rooting Lineage 14.1 on the Bionic? I'm on the official 13.0 builds and no root method (tried flashing SuperSU, Magisk, and Lineage's root add-on; even tried Kingroot) seems to be working so far. SafeStrap just gives me a "Failed" message whenever I flash any root package.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Sudosftw:
Been running Lineage 14.1 on my Bionic since late April, replacing a DroidX as my daily WiFi-only pocket Android device, as I'm still one of those hold-outs with an aaaancient Palm Centro for just making calls and texts.

Aside from some minor slowdowns in regards to thumbnail generation (especially while selecting multiple images in Discord's new image upload mechanism introduced a couple months ago) and some other interesting color funkiness when opening and using OpenCamera over the stock camera app (preferential choice, YMMV) it has been quite the amazing experience to use Android 7.x on a phone made in 2011.

Found that introducing L Speed into the equation and Greenify does help with some battery chugging issues I experienced at first. one of the cheap ~4000mAh nonamebrand extended packs available from eBay/Amazon now seems to last me a solid 20-something hours before it's time to plug in if I haven't used it much. changing the font using FontFix to Roboto Condensed over stock seems to have also helped with some real-estate issues, again strictly preferential. There's also the normal occurrence of the MTP Host process hanging and killing itself on occasion, but not too much of a worry really for me.

Also still not quite understanding of how the filesystem is partitioned in regards to Safestrap too well, especially with how limiting it is on disk space inside the partition per slot.

for the unofficial 14.1 ROM there's already a method in the settings to allow root to any app that requests it in the same way that apps must now ask for permission to record audio/access files and whatnot, but I believe this is something you need to go into the security settings and turn on.

EDIT: The way to get in and do it is to enable the Developer Options menu and modify the Root Access setting in there. Privacy Guard should then take over and allow for apps to request Root and allow it as necessary based on your input.

[IMG="20170610 Unofficial Lineage 14.1 build running on XT875 targa"]https://u.nya.is/rygbtg.png[/IMG]
[Motorola Droid Bionic] J-Lindo:
Huh, it's just there in the unofficial version? Interesting. It isn't there in official 13.0 (only for ADB). But hey, looks like 14.1 is official now, so I'll break out the old Bionic and try my luck at it. I'll edit this later with my results.

Edit: Official 14.1 yields same results when trying to flash any su add-on, including SuperSU and Lineage's. However, you said on the new thread that it is working, so I'll try it out again when I can.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] windsorbear:
I'm using CM13 on my Droid Bionic, and in Developer Options, there is a "Root Access" option, and it does have the choices of "Disabled", "Apps Only", "ADB Only", and "Apps and ADB".
[Motorola Droid Bionic] equitube:
I had a Bionic I used recently. Actually it's still being used by a friend. I tried the Lineage 14 Nougat when it first came out. I found it intolerably slow. I'm willing to try it again though. What I'm really looking for is an old CM10 or 11 ROM for the Targa. I can find lots of dead links but so far haven't found an actual copy

[Motorola Droid Bionic] equitube:
Thanks,

I had forgotten about web archive. It turns out a little more digging here brought up a link to a copy of CM12 which I put on the device today. Originally the phone had one of my first efforts at a custom ROM so a lot of bugs.

I'd given it to a friend who was using it but complained about the bugs and sluggishness. He thought it had a virus. I told him that it was clean for viruses and malware but because he'd surfed so much porn it had an electronic STD.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] 3of12:
Should I use a specific filesystem? or is it locked to the rom? There are options for FS2S, EXT4, but it seems the default is EXT3. Those others would be speedier.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] J-Lindo:
Agreed. I've tried formatting System (and Data, I think—it's been a while) to EXT4, but alas, it stubbornly stays on EXT3. I figure there's some technical explanation somewhere :silly:
[Motorola Droid Bionic] 3of12:
Overclocking

Yeah I remember exactly that being a thing. Also we need overclocking info for all new roms. 1.3 and 1.4GHz make a huge difference. I used to use CM13.1 and there was a custom kernel for that.

I'm running B150 on my P9, and it's still in Android marshmallow. I want to update to nougat but there are no other updates available. The hicare app doesn't work either.

Are there an you ways to flash the latest firmware safely without risk of a brick?

Model:EVA-L09

Thanks
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] Arnys:
if you played with your phone, root etc. You never will get updates in official way.

for more information, we need full iformation. I mean, EVA-L19C432B383 or what you get, kuz all thease info is important. and hicare are working only with unmodified phone with latest mm B version, for me it was B180
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] xMrTROLLIPOPx:
Never done anything to my phone. It's out of the box. EVA-L09C346B150
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] Arnys:
right now, for your version have not nuget update. B150 is latest for C346

ofcorse, there are things how you can change your version from EVA-L09C346B150 to EVA-L09C432B150, but its not an easy thing to do, and can brick your phone, and thease things will void warranty.
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] neiljansons:
I have two Huawei P9 (L09) phones

One I bought from JB Hi Fi and is on Android 7.0 / Emui 5.0 with a build no of EVA-L09C636B380.

But the second one I bought off ebay and is Android 6.0 / Emui 4.1.1 with a build no of EVA-L09C346B150

Would it be possible to rebrand the C346 to a C636 so it is the same as my other phone?
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] Arnys:
hard to tel, posible it is, but i realy dont know how, becasue you need right files to debrand it to C636, you can try this app , i think there in package was included C636, but not sure. PS, before do somthing with changing system, create backup inside aplication
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] furkey:
why branding as c636 instead of c432? c432 has a much better update schedule.

---------- Post added at 01:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:52 PM ----------

Btw, there is a debranding guide in this: https://xdaforums.com/p9/how-to/guide-debranding-to-c432-updating-to-t3551523

With this procedure, your new cust will be c432. You can have nougat by this cust too but your phone will automatically debrand to c900 (means universal), you will not receive any updates and some kind of features will be missing.
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] neiljansons:
Thanks for your help

I have successfully rebranded the phone and the build number is now EVA-L09C432B136.

However it still doesn't seem to want to update.

Do I need to wait for something, is there still something I need to do, or is there a way to force an update?

Thanks again

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] avohec:
Hi. Long time lurker on XDA, used plenty of guides and resources here for a while, everything has always had a positive outcome for me so far.

I just picked up an Honor 8, but when I try to register to be able to unlock the bootloader, there is no option to register from the US. Tons of other countries are listed and available, including Mexico, but not the US. My question is, if I choose another random country for my registration, is that going to prevent me from getting my bootloader unlock key? (Also, I registered at Huawei's official site with no problem, as they offer the US in their list, but not on their site to unlock bootloaders)

Thanks in advance!

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] jake5253:
Greetings all!

I'm having a strange phenomenon when listening to music on my Pixel from Google Play Music (untested in other apps as I have all-access)... my music will randomly stop/pause. The app and persistent notification show the icon as if it's still playing (not paused or stopped) but there is no sound, seconds do not advance, never gets to the next song, etc. It's worth noting perhaps that this seems to happen towards the end of a song, for instance when there's maybe 20-30 seconds of the song left. I feel like it has something to do with whenever it might start to preload or buffer the next song in queue??

After I give the app a fresh restart it seems to work fine for a while.. anywhere from 15 minutes to hours. There seems to be no pattern that I can tell. The only other thing I'm thinking is that maybe an app I'm using is for some reason causing a glitch but I really only use like Facebook, Gmail, texting, calling, and a time clock app. I've never had problems until I got the pixel so it definitely seems somewhat device-specific.

It does this when listening to music thru BT or with headphones plugged in.

The quickest way I can fix this is to manually press Pause in Play Music persistent​ notification, and then swipe it away, press the Square and Clear All. With headphones I can just re-open Play Music and press play.. on BT I have to cycle BT off/on (I think, I actually don't think I've ever tried it without cycling BT), then re-open Play Music... Sometimes it will automatically continue where it left off when I re-open the app, other times I have to manually press play again. You can imagine this being quite annoying and potentially dangerous as it usually happens when I'm using BT in my car while driving.

I've tried clearing the cache, clearing data, and even a full wipe. I'm using Pure Nexus ROM currently, but had the same problem when trying Resurrection Remix. I have literally never used the stock OS, I rooted it the day I got it and installed unofficial Lineage... I don't recall having this problem in LOS but I only used it for a few days before trying PN, RR, and then back to PN.

Does anyone else have this problem?

Or does anyone have some potential ideas to fix the problem?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] cgrimm9:
Mine does the same thing the fix for me is not use Google play music. Play music has done this no matter what ROM I was on

I have yet to go through each one throughly , but they don't all seem to support AARCH64 cross compiling ? Also some of their GIT repos haven't been updated in year or so. I take it that if they aren't being updated, MM / N is not supported?

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NutterNatter:
Hey, I've looked in many places. My Dad has my old UK HTC M8 phone. Prior to giving it to him I updated to the final update 6.12.401.4 (Android 6.0).

We can't seem to pull down the quick menu from the top of the screen.

When the back - home and switch shortcuts are at the top of the screen they don't work.

In settings like Wifi or Bluetooth Settings I cannot toggle it on/off in there.

The strange part is that the top of the screen or those areas of the screen respond to certain actions. Swipes to change page. Pressing to open the clock. Pressing the Search icon in settings.

When using diagnostics there's about 1cm at the top of the screen I can't paint.

I'd just really like some advice as to what I can do about this, and whether there's any option available to resolve this. It hasn't been dropped or fried.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainerman:
I had the exact same problem 1 week ago - well althoug I was not very comfortable with it, I bought a new screen on Amazon and replaced the old one (additionally replaced battery).

Problem has been resolved now, and screen works just fine. (50$ screen)

I do not know about your device but try entering the recovery and see if the touchscreen works there - if it works, you just have to do a factory reset instead of doing a full screen replacement.

I initially followed the iFixIt guide but I could not remove the headphone jack, therefore a executed a full disassembly (search on youtube, cannot post links yet; video is 19:30 min long and from Fixez.com) - just keep in mind to not throw the protective tape away and use A LOT of adhesive tape / glue when fixing the new screen.

Hope this helps! Have a nice day!

Nothing gets "burned" in the screen, it's called "screen retention" because it disappears in time.

My XT1644 started to have it. I had applied the last OTA (14-4) and it was still there. Then my phone locked-up in a boot loop and I decided to go back to 14. Well... no more screen retention now!

---------- Post added at 04:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:42 PM ----------

are you saying it has to do with the android version?
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] SoNic67:
It might have to be related with the actual firmware that they are pushing. I was kind of pissed when I noticed the retention, because before I never had it, but now is completely gone.

I have rooted it with ElementalX every time and adjusting the RGB levels didn't help, retention was still there.

Now, I don't even have a Kernel Manager installed anymore. And retention it's gone ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] ajcrew:
I hope the " screen retention" you were talking about is a hardware issue. I dont think software updates or downgrades can fix them.

Only changing the LCD panel can permenently fix them.

I can be wrong btw.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] SoNic67:
I could see the hour, battery symbol and cell strength indicator when pulling down the top drawer, retained and faded on the grey area. Now they are not there anymore.

If I was taking a screenshot, the retention was not in the screenshot, so it wasn't kept in the video memory. Probably it was in the LCD controller somehow.

Don't know what to say maybe the firmware adjusted the RGB values to less than 256 (what we can do also with the custom kernel).
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] lexie90:
Which version are you on exactly?
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] aditya.upadhyaya:
I agree with this. Its not a hardware side issue, because, different screen instances show different image retentions... Its annoying as f*ck, but at least its not hardware... They probably need to update the LCD firmware...
