[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
Ok let me explain.

There are 2 ways to go about this.

1. Is the legal way. This is when shops like this buy a large list of unlock codes from an Oem. Now there are rules they are supposed to follow when doing so. Most don't though.

2. The illegal way. This is done with a jtag system and some old school know how. I won't get into more then that.

As for things here. As you can expect anything posted here would be of the 2nd kind and as such not allowed to be posted.

On a side note. Don't assume that a business is legit. I have worked at a few that did things illegally as hell and never got bothered.
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpiralX15:
Do you guys think that the Low Internal Storage, Partition Size and Storage is a problem for Moto E? I feel it is, when flashing ROMs and when it starts to get laggy due to the new ROMs.

What about you guys?
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rajendran Rasa:
Yes Condor have 4gb internal storage, but 2gb usable, after flashing custom ROM we have 1.8 to 1.6gb free space (depending upon your ROM size, i.e stock rom is 500mb, gives 1.7gb free internal storage, but custom ROM is 200mb gives 1.8gb free internal storage)

Then installing WhatsApp, telegram, hike, + WhatsApp images, videos, etc

Finally we get storage full notification in status bar:silly:

Using SD as internal gives lags and poor battery backup:confused:
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpiralX15:
Custom ROMs with Gapps, the new ones takes 500mb+ of data. Installing 5 to 6 apps easily takes up storage.
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bitfed:
How would you go about maximizing your space for apps? Any recommendations for a ROM, or how to go about shrinking one? I would love to be on 7.x, but if I could get a nice tiny optimized ROM I'd have to go with that.

A lot of my issues with my phone stem from lack of space.
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fullmetal Jun:
The custom roms are not smooth at all. Going back to stock is quite a long procedure. I'm just waiting for someone to release a completely naked Aosp rom like most devices have.

Yesterday i was casually using my phone and my battery was 10%.

my phone hanged and turned off while i was tweeting. i tried to turn it on but it didn't turned on.. then i tried to take it into download mode but i didn't see anything.. now i cannot turn my phone on..

please help me with this thanks..

how can i turn my phone into download mode when bricked?
[Galaxy S6 Active] qasim799:
I think it is a battery issue or your charger might be faulty. Try another charger , or if you are not using a custom rom, rooted or anything like that then surely you need to replace the battery.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killer007TV:
Hello dear community,

opening bootloader reportedly wipes /data partition on XZ, so can I back it up (TWRP/CWM), then unlock bootloader and then restore it so I don't lose the data?

Second question, if I back up the whole internal storage in a LOCKED state (if a new LineageOS based ROM after unlocking doesn't work properly), can I restore it back so I have my current one back? WIll bootloader stay unlocked?

I apologize, I don't have a clear idea how these things work.

Thank you all!
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unrealRage:
Regarding first question,yes unlocking bootloader wipes /data partition and I am not sure if you could backup whole firmware before unlocking but to be honest I don't know does it wipe firmware(I think not? if not it your device will be factory reset).So you'd have to backup your data(backup to computer for example) and you could use Titanium backup to backup application data(requires root).Or you could even try to install custom recovery on locked bootloader and back it up that way.

Flashing Sony firmware again locks your device(I think..).

Don't forget to backup TA partition(DRM keys etc).

Sorry if this info didn't help you.It has been a while since I unlocked/rooted my device.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killer007TV:
Thanks! I've made a little research so I don't ask fully noobish, and loosing DRM keys means losing Bravie screen Engine and TrackID app ability, right? That doesn't mean that much to me (I don't use Bravia and I can use Shazam).

Using Titanium to backup my apps as well as messages etc. is a sure thing.

Yes, as you say, unlocking does a factory reset on the phone (wiping the /data partition). So, I don't know if I understood you well, backing up /data partition via custom recovery (I have TWRP and CWM Dual Recovery), then unlocking bootloader (which factory resets my phone) and then restoring that /data partition which I backed-up before will work without problems?

Thank you again for your responses :)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unrealRage:
Losing DRM keys also means worser camera image quality.

Flashing recovery without unlocking bootloader is a possibility.Then you could backup data,etc.But I have no experience and I can't guarantee anything.
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] HiagoCosta:
hello guys I was wondering if Is there any root method for our zuk z2 with the latest oficial zui version on indian variant?

I guess that lenovo will not send some update for a while, they sent that 2.5.104st in april-29, and we still not receive anything that they promisse for the may-19. (I think that they finished the tests before and Took advantage to spread the stable version before...)

I am no telling about the beta version of nougat in the indian version, i'm speaking about the stable version sent via OTA

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Ascrounch:
hi there !

i would like to buy a new phone.

for the same price, i can have the Honor 8 or the galaxy S7 (not edge)

the two phones seems the same, i can notice one important thing : screen remplacement is lower for the Honor (45$ , samsung is more than 150 $ !! )

so is everyone agree with me ? for the same price, Honor 8 is better choice ? :confused:

S7
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] PancakeBimmer:
S7. Much better camera and even better custom roms if you get Exynos version.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Telperion:
Honor 8

I will never own a device with physical navigation bar buttons, especially not one like Samsung that reverses them from every other Android device on the planet. Physical buttons alone are enough of a reason. Plus the Honor 8 will take pictures indistinguishable from the S7 at the sizes that anybody will actually be viewing them.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] yalokiy:
S7 exynos - otherwise get honor 8.

S7 snapdragon version has much worse battery life.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Sigray:
No. The S7's camera is oversharpened, wirh plastic like effects on the photos.

I had both.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Ascrounch:
I saw 2 versions of S7 (930v and 930f , one of them is more expensive than the other..) but i cannot find a test about it, 930v vs 930f.... (And i will take the less expensive)

I also like the usb type C. only the honor have it.

And about photo quality, for me the both are same.

I agree, the honor seems better, even just a little bit. And Emui seems very nice. Also, i know samsung never update his systems and S7 will stay on android 7.

What about Physical buttons ? Where is the problem?

Sigray, wich one do you prefer ?
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] KoumiCZ:
S7
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Sigray:
Honor, of course.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] brljak83:
You got me with this question

Couse I like the s7 and honor 8

I would love to have either one the same

But the only difference for me to choose from

Would be XDA support

But then again maybe more honor 8

You should if you can get them for the same price read much to know what to choose

So, good luck with this one

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] bogarty:
You truly believe that they made no significant technological advances from S7 to S8? Personally, I say benchmarks be damned. Plenty of articles out there too about how benchmarks don't really mean anything.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Ascrounch:
Well S8 is too expensive... This is a phone, remember ! Seriously, 800$ !!

The Mi6 is really nice but 2 problems : first its expensive, and second, he doesn't have 700 and 800 mhz frequency, and i need it in my country.

And finally, i 've just bought a Honor 8, for 168$ with a screen destroyed. I will change it for 40$ then he will looks like new phone :)

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] brljak83:
Hii [MENTION=3809642]bogarty[/MENTION]

Yes I do believe that there was some of technological advances from S7 to S8

But I dont believe that it should be that high price for it anyway..

I just think that if thay see this year that people are paying for lets say 800 dollar phone they just raise the

price next year.. but it does not have be ( my opinion ) that it is becouse of technological advances

And I posted the geekbench bench becouse many consider geekbench better then antutu..

And it was lets say just for fun .. becouse you mentioned the S8

And I have to agree with you that benchmarks should be damned becouse I lately am looking

only on the specification and the real time you tube videos..

By the way.. I saw how honor 8 has in many tasks been faster then iPhone 7

Less bugs and quirks on the S7. Camera in low light is a blowout - S7 kills it there. That being said, H8 is really nice.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Ascrounch:
Less bug? On Samsung ? Not sure, but agree for the rest
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] PuffDaddy_d:
It's a tough decision and though you've already made your choice, it's one that always comes down to how you plan to use your phone.

The S7 is a little smaller and easier to hold, plus it has way more support on XDA. And of course, it's waterproof.

The Honor 8 however, will feel like the smoother operating device, looks sexy as hell, and can really be found cheaper than the S7 if you look around.

Technically speaking though, there's not much one phone can do that the other can't. Unless you can use Samsung pay...
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] mwatson:
After owning an S7 and Honor 8, i'd say the camera on Honor 8 is better! much less artifacts and processing. Video capture goes to the S7 though by a long shot.

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] HydroMoon:
Performance wise s7 nails it, the kirin 950 is not bad but the gpu is a little bit on the bad side, however I think everyone at some point own a samsung device, a change is welcomed like the other said honor 8 is sexy and the camera actually is pretty good also the softeware have some nice features, at the end it's your call if you never own a samsung device it would be great to try out the s7 otherwise choose honor 8 dual cam is nice to show off the reflection at back is glorious and usb type c is nice too.

I guarantee you will enjoy the two wether it the s7 or the honor 8.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Procrustinator:

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] PuffDaddy_d:
My FRD-04 in the US shows "HD" within the in-call UI when I place calls with strong LTE signal. I assume this means it's using either VoLTE or T-Moble's proprietary HD voice. Either way, the sound through the earpiece is WAY better when that "HD" icon is displayed.

Recently, the display feature of the phone on my Nexus 6 quit working unless I have headphones plugged in. It simply goes blank as soon as a call is made. Any ideas?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SteveYoungs:
Your proximity sensor isn't working properly, or at all. If you're lucky it might just be a dirty screen (there is some crud covering the sensor). If you're unlucky, I'm afraid that you will probably be spending some money.

If the phone has ever had a bad fall, or if it has ever been taken apart, it is possible that the screen is no longer sitting perfectly in the frame. That can cause the sensor to be skewed and not work properly.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] GOMiCHO:
(I know there's a thread about the audio cutting out every 2 seconds, but mine is a bit different.)

Audio would play just fine for a day at most, then randomly all the audio would stop working.

More specifically, I get a

music playback error

,

videos on facebook and youtube can not be played

, and

audio for games are absent.

I'd wake up and my

phone alarm is missing

.

The audio doesn't cut out the first 2 seconds of a video, at least not that I'm aware of. Audio everywhere just stops working.

Although, I found that clearing the cache and memory would sometimes fix it temporarily, as well as closing all apps.

Ultimately, I would restart the device (Since videos still won't load) and it would fix itself temporarily for another few hours.

I've done a factory reset, and the problem still persists.

Should I be worried if this is a hardware issue? I feel like this might just be a software issue alone, so I'm unsure whether to wait for a new software update or turn it in for a different phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] andoavt:
I am also facing the same sound problem in Germany on O2. The problem starts randomly during a call and after that no sound in the whole mobile works. Earpiece, speaker, headphone and microphone stops working.

I have tried factory reset but it didn't resolve the problem. I have even tried Safe Mode, but the problem appears in that too.

It seems like phone app takes control of all the audio and then fails to release the control.

The only solution is to restart the phone.
