[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] ic2e:
My phone is basically unbootable after a shutdown due to low battery. Things I tried:

1. Wipe System+Cache -> Flash ROM

(Result: Stuck at boot animation)

2. Wipe System+Data+Cache -> Flash ROM

(Result: Bootable)

3. Wipe System+Data+Cache -> Flash ROM -> Restore Data

(Result: Stuck at boot animation)

4. Wipe System+Data+Cache -> Flash ROM -> Restore Data -> Delete /data/system

(experiment)

(Result: Bootable system but Android warns system unstable till factory reset, Apps can launch but behave as if no previous state)

Can I conclude that there is something wrong with my data partition?

Strategy 1

What are the files I could try to minimally delete/modify to get it bookable and have my existing data intact? Or please guide me know how to trace to the problematic files/folders.

Strategy 2

I do have a TWRP Data partition backup before I did the various (dumb) experiments. If I were to start from scratch, how to I copy over /data/data (which I am guessing where all app's data is at) to restore the previous state?

I have tried to:

1. Restore /data

2. Copy /data/data to somewhere in /sdcard

3. Wipe, flash and replace the /data/data folder, does not boot

Also tried:

1. Restore /data

2. Copy /data/data to somewhere in /sdcard

3. Wipe, flash, boot.

4. Download a single app.

5. Went to TWRP and copy only the app's backup data folder to /data/data

6. Boot to system and launch app. Apps crashes.

7. I understand it has something to do with permissions and I have out of frustration, used an app to allow all actions (I believe a 777 chmod equivalent?) and set the owner and group to the app itself. App launches with previous data, but seems to have problems saving (writing) changes.

Extra info: Phone: Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 (SD)

ROM: Resurrection Remix v5.7.4, Android 6.x.x

As you can tell, I don't know much about how Android works. Please pardon me for the long post and thank you in advance.

Not sure if you all have seen this. Apparently, the processor in the Wings has a special chip for handling video. If HTC delivered the driver, it would increase the responsiveness of all video, including the interface and gaming.

For more info, check out HTCClassAction.org (which also has info on a possible upcoming update for the TTyNII which may include WM6.1, I'd expect they'll do the same for the S730).

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] username4this:
Hello guys,

I'm an owner for an Exynos S8+.

Phone has some red tint but that doesn't bother me much.

However, yesterday I noticed a new problem, while I was in bed, with all lights down and at lowest brightness, I noticed gray images displayed are darker on the right half of the screen than the left.

Some sort of artifacts show up and the screen looks all smudged.

So my question to you is,

can you open this image http://imgur.com/a/vXjac on lowest brightness and on a completely dark room and tell me if you see any smudges on your screen. You can also drop the notification shade down to make the supposedly artifacts more visible.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] galaxyYtester:
I believe those "smudges" are created by just how the amoled panel is made / works, since all my amoled devices (including the S8+) have those when viewing in the dark. It was worse on my old phone (S6E+), and you could also see the "smudges" in sunlight as vertical lines of more light and more dark up and down the screen.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] username4this:
But can you see it on your S8/S8+?

I tried the same image under the same conditions on my S7Edge and it doesn't happen.

As it stands, my S8+ showing that image on lowest brightness and dark room has the right half of the screen darker than the left side wtih smudges in between.

Looks horrible and I'm not sure I can get it replaced.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Andrewtst:
I had this issue before last time when purchasing the Tab S 2. I went back to shop ask them go in the completely dark room and show them. They exchange a new one for me.

If your phone had no constant display of dark grey, I suggest you bring back to shop for changing.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] username4this:
So, when you replicate my issue on your S8+, you have a clear dark grey image without any colour distortion?

I'm going to the store tomorrow but I'm afraid they'll send it in for warranty instead of trading it in for a new one.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Andrewtst:
Yup clear dark grey without any distortion.

I suggest you go back store and exchange it. Just use demo set to proof it no such issue.

Okay so I have come across 3 different Bootloader Unlock files:

1. samsung_unlock_n4

2. samsung_unlock_n4-2

3. samsung_unlock_n4-fix

Can someone please enlighten me on the differences?

I have seen write-ups on unlocking the Note 4 using these with no rhyme or reason over the others.

Thanks.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chugs:
It is my understanding that

1. Samaung_unlock_n4 was the original script that Samsung patched with the marshmallow bootloader.

2. Samsung_unlock_n2-2 was updated to unlock new bootloader.

3. Samsung_unlockn4-fix is required to unlock Verizon variants for they have additional security to remove.

My current version is EVA-L09C432B166 and i know the android 7 update has been out for the C432 for some time so what do i do?
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] furkey:
You can flash it manually. Simply download the zip file, create a folder named "dload" to your sd card's main directory, copy the UPDATE.APP which is in the zip file to that directory, shut down your phone, open it up again by pressing volume up+volume down+power buttons simultaneously. This will bring up a simple installation screen and the rest will be handled automatically.

I suggest you to flash b362 update (not b378 update directly).

Note: After the whole procedure, you may want to do a factory reset. Just remember to back up your whole phone before doing these steps.

So much to love about this device, everything but actually switching it on.

Fingerprint reader position is poor, but even putting that aside, when i find it, it only works for me half the time. And it's far worse with a case as you need to cover the sensor.

Face unlock doesnt work for me if lighting is wrong and Iris unlock doesn't work for me half the time. Drives me mad.

And even when they do work they aren't that fast, either to operate or actually unlock.

Its a lottery. You never know if it's going to work or not. It's infuriating and a little stressful.

It extends to using Samsung Pay. I can't get the device to recognize me sometimes so it doesn't work. A lot of faffing around to get it to do something that other devices do reliably.

Then there's what happens when the device is locked and I get a WhatsApp call. You know it's there but the f@@@ker won't unlock and when it does you have to quicky find WhatsApp, open it and get to the call. Unlike iPhone which treats it lime a regular call.

Feels like they rushed this device out, just like the note 7.

They say stability counts alot. Even with everything good about this device, as a daily driver it's so freaking frustrating that im starting to regret selling my iPhone and Mate 9.

iris unlock is working very well for me, with glasses on and in low light. for fingerprint security, i created 4 fingerprints (2 fingers each hand) and rotated each finger at least 270 degrees to get the best results. would have definitely liked the fingerprint reader to be placed in a better location, but i've adjusted now. :good:3KP

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] the_scotsman:
I find the fingerprint sensor to be near perfect.

It unlocks EVERY SINGLE TIME. And it is infinitely faster than the fingerprint sensor on the S7E.

Location took a little bit of getting used to, coming from the S7E, but after getting used to it, I find it so easy to use. It's like second nature. I just put my finger there naturally, and I get it right first scan.

And I love that it automatically unlocks the phone once it scans my finger, without having to press any buttons.

To me, the initial reviews of the fingerprint sensor and other biometrics by the media were poor and rushed. They allowed no time to actually adjust and get used to them.

Most forums I use, XDA and the S8 sub on Reddit, most people actually praise these security unlock features.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Skander1998:
Iris Unlock is what I use.

Instant unlocks in all conditions except direct sunlight (sometimes). When that happens I just use the fingerprint scanner / pattern.

Want an Iris Scanner tip? :)

Go to a completely dark room.

And I mean it, at night, zero lighting, you shouldnt be able to see anything.

Remove Iris data, and register them again in that room.

Do NOT open your eyes more than you would normally, hold your phone as shown in the instructions.

Voila. The setup conditions matter a lot with the iris scanner it seems, it used to always work 70% of the time until I did the above.

TIP 2: when using the iris unlock, look at the small crossed out eye at the top right of the screen ;)
