[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] landonfoot:
I was in the process of updating both my fireTV and fireTV stick and accidentally pushed the montoya recovery meant for the stick to the firetv and ran “sh /data/media/0/montoya_recovery_v1.zip”.

Now when my FireTV boots up it I get the white Amazon logo for a bit, it then flashes a couple of times and then it reboots and repeats this process. The bootloader is fully unlocked, but I am unable to get into fastboot to try and push the correct version of TWRP back to the unit. I have a USB A-A cable connected to my PC, I have the ADB drivers installed, and I see the Android device under computer manager briefly (disappears when the unit reboots), but I am unable to issue the “fastboot devices” successfully or issue the “fastboot flash recovery.img” command successfully (hangs on waiting for device). It then continues to go into a loop.

Any ideas as to why the device is not stopping at the white logo screen and not going into fastboot?

Thanks in advance!

So, how do I get the phone to make I call when I activate OK Google and say, Call "Jim" etc.

Presently, as I am not using the SIM and disabled the cellular network it will tell me I need to turn off airplane mode. I though I had it figured out when I set it to forward calls to my phone, however I think that is intended for when both have a SIM. It seems like a massive oversight if this is not possible, given the fact that the Style does not have the HR monitor and Fit. The two reasons, other than the spinning selector, I went with this model over the style.
[LG Watch Sport] stag74:
I have cellular turned off, and if I say "ring Fred", it immediately calls Fred through my tethered smartphone.

If there are multiple phone numbers attached to a contact, it then does not dial straightaway, but asks which number to dial first.

Whether I use the phrase "ring" or "call" it does not matter, works with both phrases.

I know this is an old thread but did you figure out how to initiate a phone call on the tethered phone without the sound coming through the watch?...I want to say"ok Google call Bill" and have my phone call Bill and not hear it through my watch. If I disable call audio on my phone then the watch says check blutooth connection...this seems rediculous that Mt Sony SW3 can easily intiate my phone to call any contact through ok Google but my lg watch sport wants to blare my conversation from my wrist.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Exodusche:
Maybe you forgot to wipe data or could be the gapps you used so many possibilities. However as far as I know you can jump back and fourth between builds just need the matching vendor. If you really that concerned about it run system updates from google and get your phone up-to-date first.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CyberpodS2:
Flash whatever you want and just make sure you follow the OP's instructions. So when they say you need a certain vendor image or gapps package, you need to use them. Also, if it is stated that a clean install is required, it's really required. Almost all instances of many apps fc'ing in a new install are the result of either dirty flashing a different rom or a wrong vendor image or gapps.

Has anyone been able to successfully hide their hotspot usage from t mobile?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] rubiicon59:
That situation must really suck. It's your data plan, should be your choice to use however is most suitable and convenient for you.

I'm on Tesco Mobile UK. Its a MVNO using o2 as the carrier network. Heres a quote from Tesco Mobile website:

Some phones and tablets allow you to set-up a ‘Wi-Fi hotspot’ (also referred to as 'tethering') to share your data connection with other devices such as a laptop.

If your tariff has a data allowance included, you can use your device as a personal hotspot at no extra cost. If you don't have a data allowance, or you go over your data allowance, you’ll be charged our standard rates.

Obviously I'm happy not having the same inconvenience as you do.

There's quite a few more in the UK that allow tethering:

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] LvDisturbed1:
There is a way to hide tethering data. I assume you have an unlimited data plan, as this does not hide total data consumed by your device, nor does it prevent data throttling during peak hours if you go over 30GB.

So far, carriers detect tethering data by monitoring the TTL headers in outgoing TCP/IP packets from your phone. TTL stands for Time To Live. Every time a packet goes through a router, the TTL drops by 1. If TTL drops to 0, the packet is dropped. Operating Systems have default TTL values; Android is 64. When you tether a device, your phone acts like a router. So lets say you are tethering an Android tablet. Your carrier will see data coming from your phone having 2 different TTL values, one 64 and the other 63 (64-1 for the jump through your phone aka the router). Since the carrier knows the default TTL is 64, they tally all data that doesn't match it as being used for tethering.

First, your device needs to be rooted. Then install the Kali Nethunter kernel (NetHunter build itself should be optional). That kernel has the necessary modules for iptables, which is what you will need. Open a terminal and enter the commands

su

iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -j TTL --ttl-set 64

This will change TTL for ALL outgoing packets from your phone to 64, even those from tethered devices. The command will not persist on reboot though, so I recommend making a startup script.

Hope this helps!
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Still_living714:
Yes I read this before but I mostly do WiFi Hotspot. I've read a ton of forums only to come to the conclusion that you cannot beat t mobile at hiding your usage anymore. If Maybe you have another method please share,thanks.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] LvDisturbed1:
This method works regardless if you are tethering though WiFi or USB. Either way, the phone is acting as the router, and packet headers leaving the phone will show a TTL of 64.

I have used this method to download games on my Xbox One, torrent stuff on my laptop, stream media to my tablet and more. Hell, I hit over 250GB one month. I can hit DL speeds over 110mb/s at home through LTE. I use USB tether when I can, as the data transfer rate is much better than WiFi tether.

Take the plunge and give it a go. I'm telling you, it works!

Can I do this without the kernel you said? Running Albatross and would like to keep it.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] LvDisturbed1:
I am not sure off the top of my head. Most likely no, but I would have to look at the source code for it to be sure. It may be possible for the maintainer to add the necessary modules to get iptables working properly. What version of Albatross are you using? Stock or custom?

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] LvDisturbed1:

Awhile back, and I had to research a bit on how to do it on Android. Of course my memory on it now is a bit fuzzy. I think you just put it in /data/local/userinit.d/

Edit: Try Script Manager in the Play Store. It says you can make a script and set it to run on boot .

Edit 2: Found an app made by some Russians on github. It has English language option and can set TTL using IP tables either manually, or on boot. Does some other blacklist things, but I think they apply to carriers from Russia, so don't think it will affect anything.

From what you're describing it sounds like you didn't do it correctly. In the bootloader it should never ask you to sideload anything. The correct steps are, with the phone on and adb debugging enabled, adb devices, should show your connected to your phone, next adb reboot bootloader, phone will restart into a download type screen, next step, on PC type fastboot devices to see if the PC and phone are communicating correctly, next is to type fastboot boot recovery.img, if it boots into the TWRP we're good, sorry but I don't have a PC up and running right now. So all I can do is suggest and hope you guys can get it running.
