[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Excabyte:
I was trying to root my Lenovo P2a42 with TWRP and SuperSU V2.76 but then something went wrong and it wouldn't boot up. I then did an advanced wipe and wiped everything using TWRP and now I have no OS, although I can go into TWRP and the Bootloader. Whenether I try to boot up I get the Bootloader. Now I just want to get it back to normal, I have no backups (Cuz I'm dumb). Please help, thanks in advance.

Hey, did you fix this issue? Stuck at same point.

FIXED:

Flashed the stock rom that is floating around three times and it worked.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Excabyte:
Yeah I fixed it a few weeks back. I did an advanced reset again then got a stock ROM zip transferred from my pc to my lenovo then flashed it with TWRP. Worked just fine although OTAs no longer work (Too happy to care).

Now, I still want to root my device... If you find a way that works could ya let me know? Thanks.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] rodentkj:
So like many others, I have a AT&T Tilt, 8925 or HTC Kaiser that quit charging with some of my chargers. My symptoms were like everyone else. It will charge with a car adapter, or "X" brand of wall charger but for no reason just quit charging one day.

Here are the four charging methods I am using, and the different symptoms when this issue presented itself.

1. Wall A/C charger that came with the phone.

2. Car charger that I got from AT&T store.

3. USB cable plugged in to my laptop.

4. Wall A/C charger for "some other" device.

When I first got the phone, all of the above worked. Then after a few weeks, this happened.

Wall Charger

Still worked. No change.

Car Charger

Charging LED would not light up. Phone would not charge.

USB Cable

Charging LED would not light up, but I could Sync the phone with WMDM.

Wall Charger (other brand)

Charging LED would light up, but the phone would not charge.

So I went through and real a lot of posts and I first made sure I had "When device is turned on, do not charge the battery when connected to the PC" unchecked. This did not help.

Then I started looking closer to my phone. And I noticed what seemed to be one of the pins on the mini USB port was bent back in to the middle plastic piece that stands in the middle of the connector. When holding the phone face up, it was the pin to the far right. See my picture below. (I wish I had a before picture)

I removed the battery from my phone and used a small pick to VERY GENTLY pull the pin out a bit. I did my best to make it look like the other four pins to the left. You can also see in the picture, that the 4th pin is bent back a bit too but I left it alone. I did not think it was bent enough to cause a contact issue with the connector. After fixing this, I installed the battery and tested it out. And to my surprised, that fixed the problem. :)

So, the question is, how did this happen???

Well, I suspect it's from trying to stuff the stylus in to the reset button but missing and hitting the mini USB port instead. That middle "stand off" piece of plastic has some flex to it. So by stuffing the tip of the stylus in the corner of the USB port, that likely flexed that plastic back which also bent the pin. Note that the pins are not attached to the plastic piece, so that is why only one pin bent and not all of them.

Long winded sorry. But perhaps may help out.

And take this all at face value. This is just what was wrong with my phone. Mileage will vary.

The problem is not the miui saver, i also install the Lineage OS and apps continue force close.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jaydemir:
I apologize for the very confusing topic title, but here's the context:

I have an issue on my G2 (t-mo) where the temperature sensor thinks the battery is -30 degrees c. In this state, it will not power on or charge. The only remedy I have for this is by putting the phone in "Battery Fake Mode," simply by dialing 3845#*801#. A menu pops up where I can enable this. However, this is on the STOCK rom.

I haven't had the chance to root/flash this yet simply because I have no idea whether or not this menu is accessible on a custom rom. Is there anyone on here who can check? (Even if you have a d800 or d802, all you have to do is replace the 801 with your model number). If it cannot be accessed this way, is there another way I can access it? I would love to flash CM13 or Lineage but if my phone doesn't charge then it's only good for 1 day.

Thanks.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rx149:
I seem to have shot myself in the foot with this and I need some help.

My phone is a Samsung Galaxy Alpha, SM-G850W, and I've been on CM 13 for nearly a year now and I wanted to try out LineageOS for the hell of it since I am planning to get a new phone and I wanted to put LineageOS on that as well. So I downloaded an unofficial build of LineageOS for the G850W and followed some basic instructions: backup with TWRP, wipe with TWRP, and flash both the ROM and OpenGApps with TWRP. All three of these went well and I was able to install LineageOS. Now the problem: I tried restoring my backup (a CM 13 based backup) thinking I could restore some things from that backup and when I went to restart the CM boot screen popped up and I immediately knew I must have messed up. Checking my backup it contained boot, cache, system, EFS, modem, and a couple other folders/partitions that I can't remember off the top of my head. I then simply tried to redo everything again: backup, wipe, flash. While I am able to backup, wipe, and flash, and I am able to proceed past my device's boot screen, the Lineage OS boot screen seems to either be stuck or it is taking a long time. I've waited for 30 minutes with no change and I am sure that shouldn't be the case at all. Stock ROM was the same way, sitting on the Samsung logo with the sparkles forever. I managed to reinstall CM 13 but it's a very buggy install as sometimes it restarts randomly and goes through the "preparing applications" thing upon restart. Furthermore data doesn't seem to work and IMEI info is not found and sometimes in the stock recovery mode it shows that the EFS partition could not be found. Same thing happens when I poke around in ADB, I do not see any EFS partition when I type in the mount command. Clearly I've really messed things up. So would there be some way to fix things considering I do have a backup of things before I messed things up? How would I use my backup to fix everything? Would there be other tools I should be trying? Any help would be appreciated.

Some time ago I got engaged on the free software philosophy, changing my Desktop OS and my regular habits.

I want to know if there's any custom rom here that offers the free software bases, like full open source and respectful with user freedom, without any bloatware or android data flaws. Does it exist? Sorry but I couldn't find anything in the search.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] dharmastation3:
Hi everyone,

If you've clicked on this thread you are probably just like me. You have a T-Mobile Galaxy S8 (950U) and wanted to try the unbranded/unlocked firmware. Maybe you thought it would SIM unlock your phone (Nope) or maybe you thought you'd like it but just don't. I was unable to find anyone who successfully reverted back to fully stock T-Mobile. My phone stayed XAA/XAA/TMB no matter what I did. Well, now I'm TMB/TMB/TMB and here to hopefully help you do the same.

I mostly followed this post: https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s8/how-to/switch-to-carrier-firmware-100-t3609487. Here's the instructions:

1. Download Factory Binary, EngBoot, and the G950W firmware.

2. Turn off phone

3. Hold down on Bixby button + power + volume down

4. open Odin v3.12.7

5. add the Factory Binary to the AP section of Odin.

6. Plug your phone into your computer (NEEDS TO BE WINDOWS) with Odin open

7. Make sure your device is connected and recognized by Odin.

8. Click start.

9. One the phone reboots run the ADB command, adb reboot bootloader

10. Open PrinceComsy (modded) Odin and flash the EngBoot

11. Click start

12. Once the phone reboots type the command adb reboot bootloader

13. Put the HOME_CSC of the G950W firmware into the CSC part of Odin 3.12.7 (NOT PrinceComsy)

14. Click start

15. Open IME setting on Factory Binary

16. Type in *#243203855#

17. Select XAC

****NOTE ABOUT 15-17: A bunch of system processes kept saying they were force closing, but I just kept saying OK until I could successfully type the code into the dialer and select XAC. It worked, even with those processes supposedly failing.****

18. Click install

19. Wait for phone to reboot

20. Once it does open terminal and type in adb shell

21. Then type in echo "TMB" > /efs/imei/mps_code.dat

22. Type in exit into adb shell

23. Type in adb reboot bootloader

24. Flash the G950U T-Mobile firmware without Userdata. Also make sure to flash the non-home CSC.

25. Enjoy your reverted back to T-Mobile 100% stock phone.

Happy to give you credit man. I spent days asking on four or five threads if anyone had converted their T-Mobile S8 back to 100% stock. I found no one. One guy mentioned he got his Verizon S8 back to stock.

I found the carrier switch thread ...which gave great instructions, but didn't tell you anything about where to get these files. So I searched around to get the files and spent a good two hours trying and failing until it worked. I figured a thread with not only the instructions, but also all the files you need...would be helpful.

I'm on XDA a few times a year when a new phone comes out. I could literally care less about "credit." However, I can tell you do...and I am thankful for your instructions.

Can you copy the instructions (and the files I gathered in this thread) and make your own post? I will delete this if you do. Because it does no one any good to have the comments on here being about people wanting credit. Why don't you just re-post this under your username?

All I care about is helping people.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Zorn_:
If you follow all the steps to change the CSC to TMB, then at the very end flash the unlocked G950U1 firmware, does the phone still identify as TMobile? And would you be able to get the TMobile updates (like the 6/7 update)?

Nope, the systems are different. The updates are also different. The G950U1 ones come from samsung the others come from TMobile.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Zorn_:
Gotcha. Thanks for your replies. Main reason I'm worried about staying on the unlocked firmware is Samsung's horrible reputation for updates last time around. I'm afraid we won't get the updates on this firmware until 6 months after the carrier versions.
