[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
There is no way. They are talking about J7 2016, and J7 prime 2017

J700T and T1 are 2015

Old. We are lucky we got 7.1.1, the international j7 2015's didn't even get official nougat
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] DroidJP:
One way or another will shall see lol.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] mr.duck254:
We got the best version of nougat of all of them. So we shall. Either way, if the 2016 gets it. We will have it soon thereafter. We can see to that. Won't take long for an a series firmware or port to hit. Well be right on their heels with that too
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] DroidJP:
After digging around regarding of what year the J7 is. Apparently this phone is unique exclusively to Metropcs. The 2015 only has 1.5GB of RAM where as the 2016 has 2GB but the body is from 2015. So technically, our J7 does indeed qualifies for Oreo update as it is not a true 2015 version unless you count the housing, sure why not. Just going to leave as the year model is MetroPCS. I can see why i am confused. So in the end, Housing is 2015 but hardware is 2016 and i believe that is how samsung is looking at it. Metro is just weird like that with their phones lol

Even the metropcs rep had to do some digging because this is confusing lol.

[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
FYI, the j700T and j700t1 are a 2015 device. Please do not listen to whatever that dude said a few posts up. If u search for j7/with those years and mod accordingly, u will brick your phone. And be unhappy.I promise. Nothing was made just for metro. At all. No j7 has 1.GB ram..sorry man u just can't put out way wrong info like that

[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Johnrob011045:
This is marshmallow. Latest version is 7.1.1 Nougat. There's even posts saying yup, it's Nougat. If you want to keep your imei intact you can back it up or get a best smart tools for around $50. I had a major accidental efs format once on my Galaxy S6. It was months of turmoil and I got lucky Samsung restored my original, otherwise it would have been lost forever.

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] TheOtherOtherOtherOne:
Hello,

The vibration motor has suddenly failed on my phone. It now hardly vibrates at all and is extremely loud.

The problem seems more or less identical to this one watch?v=ZPqGD2uGG4o if you are curious.

The sound doesn't come from the speakers and I have no reason to believe it could possible be a software issue. Ie no recent installs or updates.

First thing I did was contact google. They had me boot into safemode to see if the problem persists. It does. However they now require that I reformat the phone.

This leads me to my question on how I can backup ALL app data. I have 400+ apps and it would suck to have to reset them all and or lose data.

I can sync phone contacts and such but without root I don't have a way of backing everything up.

Or is there another way to get Google to actually get me a replacement?

Thank you for your time.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] bobby janow:
If you're bootloader unlocked then root it and use Titanium backup, save it to the computer afterwards. Then unroot and factory reset as they ask. I'd probably not do that but if you have to get a new device, well then you have to. Maybe there is another way, but I've not seen it. Non root backup apps don't backup and restore your data reliably. If you are bootloader locked then I do believe you're out of luck. Pretty lousy of them to make you do that. If they just sent you a new one then you could copy from the old to the new. Maybe suggest that to them.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] mlin:
When you set up the new pixel using info from an old device, how much data is transferred? That may be an option.

I just went from rooted with custom ROM to full stock unrooted. All of my apps restored from the play store. I had to log into a few, but others seemed to retain app data, like Strava for instance. Google's back up seems to be getting better and better. I use SMS backup and restore for SMS/MMS because Google's backup service does not support MMS.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] TheOtherOtherOtherOne:
Well in case anyone is wondering... I bit the bullet and did the factory reset. The problem still exists of course.

Rant ahead, sorry/

There is an odd sound coming from within the device itself (not the speakers) and Google blames software? Is there some hidden second speaker inside?? It quite dumb and infuriating.

Even if there was doubt you would think running in safe mode which disables all the third party software would be enough to prove it.

It took me hours to copy everything and make sure everything was backed up. I don't blame the rep, he told me he HAD to make me do this. Honestly, I kinda wish I would have just told him I did it and it didn't work since there was no way it could have been software.

Well now a refurbished replacement is on the way. Which isn't ideal either. It has an issue that isn't too uncommon. I can find a dozen posts online about it which means there is probably hundreds of people with this problem at least. Now I have to put up with a refurbished which probably has a battery worse off as well as who knows what else.

This whole phone feels rushed, to be honest, and I regret buying it.

I won't be buying any more google hardware unless either they change in the future or the particular device has months of reviews.

/End rant

I didn't know you could unroot and make it seem like it didn't happen. This is what I should have done. Thanks for the suggestion.

"If they just sent you a new one then you could copy from the old to the new. Maybe suggest that to them" I suggested this to them several times. One guy told me he wasn't allowed to even rma it until I reformat despite there being no way its a hardware issue.

If I had the replacement phone up front then transfering is easy. Google even has a built in mechanism, but google wouldn't RMA it and have one sent out until AFTER resetting it. A lot of data is synced but my 400+ apps, none of them seem to sync via the backup and restore feature. I also have 80+gbs of other files beside pictures. I bought the 128gb for a reason... Thanks for the suggestion.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] guptadh:
I have been using Google earth for some time now and simply love the application, given the fact that there aren't many good maps available for my city otherwise. But i really miss the ability to save bookmarks/ POI on my GMM. Is there any other utility or addon which will help me do this. I tried using GPS tuner, but it is very slow and the maps take ages to download.

Tracky pro is tad better, but again the detail in the map is missing and aerial view absent.

If you are using something like this, please let me know.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Godyn:
yep, me too, looking for a hack to insert POI, that would make it possible to see the traffic cams on google navigator

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ttb1:
Help!

My careless mistake and now my phone is stuck with a message “Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again”. I was trying to flash my rom back with stock rom and it killed. Could it be due to I forgot to enable “USB debugging” after I did a “Factory Reset” which causing my odin 1.85 to failed so I interrupted and now it is stuck? Anyhow, is this issue reversible and if so, how?

Phone: Sprint Note 3

Very much appreciated!

[G3 Android Development] fprhqkrtk303:
TeamWin's TWRP Touch Recovery for LG G3 - currently available only for F400 variants​

https://twrp.me/

TWRP is an open source, community project. TWRP development is done by roughly 4 people at this point. We also have a large support community with many people who are willing to answer questions and help people with their devices either through our IRC channel or on forums like xda-developers.

Team Win was originally formed to work on porting WiMAX to CM7 for the HTC EVO 4G. After our work on the EVO 4G we wanted to work on a project that would work on more devices than just the EVO 4G and we settled on working on a recovery. Today TWRP is the leading custom recovery for Android phones.

A custom recovery is used for installing custom software on your device. This custom software can include smaller modifications like rooting your device or even replacing the firmware of the device with a completely custom “ROM” like OmniROM

You can find the source code for TWRP at github.com/omnirom/android_bootable_recovery/​

Flashing Instructions

To install recovery images use Flashify / Rashr from Play Store or flash in your current recovery. Otherwise do the following:

1. Go to install, find and select the Images... button.

2. Browse to the image that you downloaded and select it.

3. Choose recovery and swipe to flash.

OR

1. Move recovery.img to internal storage.

2. Open terminal window/command prompt to execute following commands

adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery
exit
exit
adb reboot recovery

[G3 Android Development] andrewKode:
Official TWRP for D855 is so bad... sorry to say that. It doesn't work properly and even if LineageOS recommends it it's just not able to flash LOS builds.

When you want to reboot in recovery it hangs in a bootloop and when you want to shut the device off it just turns on back. So far we only have the unofficial version for D855 fully working.
[G3 Android Development] fprhqkrtk303:
Planning to support more devices when F400 version is stable.

You can build your own TWRP using my source.

LoL i maintain twrp for d855 i don't have any issue with that recovery(3.1.1) fully tested..

and this problem cause by bootloader..

or you mean this

Fixed rebooting when no OS is present (Dees_Troy)

"unofficial version for D855 fully working."

Nope dadi11 twrp encrypt no work.. ;]
[G3 Android Development] andrewKode:
Dude, Idk what you're maintaining but this is what happens:

- TWRP sometimes does not reboot back in recovery (it hangs on LG screen)

- hangs on flashing LineageOS

- When chosed to turn off the device from the recovery it turns back ON right after it shuts down.
[G3 Android Development] ZjemCiKolege:
1. I try but did not happen.

2. Build of lineage?(i flash each version from february to 21.04) no any issue.

3. Issue of custom rom(problem with turn on charger and boot same issue..) ;]
[G3 Android Development] Rom:
Hello, apparently no...

https://twrp.me/site/update/2017/05/19/twrp-3.1.1-0-released.html

If it's a software problem, it would be the problem of AROMA devs, but if it's related to software keys incompatibility it's will be the work of TWRP devs.

Hello, i had bought a m8s on ebay.

It works for a few Minutes and than it reboots.

OS Version is 2.20 S-ON

I unlocked it and try to flash TWRP.

It works but i can not get in TWRP ... i always put me backin bootloader screen.

I also try to flash stock recovery but it doesent work to do an factory reset.

Bootloader says that the Software is Modified.

I try today 15h to solve this problem and i have no more ideas. Guys can u help me with some more ideas or solutions?

I also tried the solutions in the m8s ruu theard but i was not able to find the right ruu 2.20 so i did not work.

There isn't much else I find of interest in customizing the phone.
