Hi does this keep the twrp recovery after you have installed a rom. After I installed recovery.img, get twrp, install lineage.zip I lose twrp recovery unless I flash recovery.img but then lose my lineage boot unless I reflash.

I used to be able to dual boot twrp or the rom.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] Blu3ye:
I guess then you´re doing something wrong while flashing. Check correct syntax to flash twrp maybe.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] Ilko:
you are likely flashing a wrong file "remote is not a boot image"

try this one instead

I'm not sure how you are proceeding exactly, but it's more clear saying that it's VolDown+Power, because you must hold the volume key first, then hold power until the phone vibrates.
[LG G5 Accessories] luckana:
Hello people i am very curious to know if someone has tried putting a G5 case on a G5 SE and has an opinion or an advice or something... Because i just wrote to a local store and they replied me that the SE is a tiny bit thinner (with milimeters) and probably they won't be compatible but in reality the difference is like 0.4mm. Isn't that too small of a difference to cause a problem ? I had liked this awesome case (Verus Single Fit Case) but starting to get dubious now. I looked online, there doesn't seem to be a single case specifically for the SE, or maybe i didn't search long enough. For sure, there isn't one in my country :laugh: Why is it even thinner to begin with, the battery has the same capacity, i dunno. I did order a tempered glass, i think that will fit right..

RE:cross platform (?) alcatel rom question...

:confused:

I have 2 Alcatel smartphone phablets:5054N,5056N...and i have a question about the possibility ( or feasability?? ) of upgrading the 5054N stock ROM with the 5056Ns stock ROM;both Alcatel phablets are similar in specs , but the 5056N has the Android Marshmallow 6.0 (6.0.1?) as stock OEM ROM where as the 5054N has Lollipop 5.1.1 as it's stock OEM ROM.

What i want to do is backup (any1 know a good ROM backup apk 4 rooted,non rooted smartphone , or ADB commands for PC to backup the stock ROM??) the 5056Ns stock ROM so that i may flash to the 5054Ns system partition,but am not sure if the 5056n ROM can work on the 5054N....hence this "post"!:)

I would also like to know if any forum members know where i might find online custom ROMS (LineageOS,CM,UbuntuTouch{?},etc) which have drivers that would work with all Alcatels OEM interfaces(WiFi,Bluetooth,etc... ) ....;)

Thanks in advance for any helpful replies to this 'Droidful N00Bs post : P!!

My phone currently will not boot, cannot enter recovery and I can only access Odin. From my research so far I've been getting fairly mixed results as to whether flashing the stock s6 rom will erase my photos (which is what Im trying to recover).

[Verizon HTC One (M9)] thunder2132:
Hey everyone,

I was just gifted a Verizon M9 with s-off. It's currently running Lineage OS and TWRP. I don't have Verizon service myself, and I tried to throw my wife's AT&T nano sim in there (I have a micro sim and don't want to cut it unless I know it's going to work). For a few seconds I got fast H+ network access, before the data signal cut out. I've read online that the Verizon M9 should be GSM sim unlocked out of the box. I tried several APN's, but none of them brought back the data connection.

Am I missing a step? Is this not something that can be done? Is this an issue since she has a real AT&T sim, but it won't be an issue if I cut down my black wireless sim?
[Verizon HTC One (M9)] thunder2132:
Well, my new Black Wireless sim came in and it worked just fine. Now I'm off to see if I can unlock some LTE bands.
[Verizon HTC One (M9)] TheXev:
Were you able to get AT&T LTE to work on the Verizon version? I was curious for a friend who might grab this phone and switch Straight Talk networks later.
[Verizon HTC One (M9)] thunder2132:
I'm still working on that. I band unlocked the phone and my phone will connect to AT&T LTE for 1-5 minutes, then it loses all signal until I manually switch it to GSM again. I feel like the issue is at Black Wireless, but they don't want to add my IMEI to their database since it's a Verizon phone.
[Verizon HTC One (M9)] phreak311:
I also have a Verizon HTC One M9 and am using it on Cricket (which is owned and operated by AT&T). I'm able to keep a signal. H+ most of the time. If I manually reset the network, then do a network search then select Cricket, the signal will reset to 4G LTE for a few hours or until I get a call. After the call it gets stuck on H+.

I'm not rooted and s-off....yet.

Great phone though. If I didn't have Cricket I'd just settle for H+ all the time.

Hopefully this thread will pick up and we'll get some help staying locked into LTE :)

---------- Post added at 07:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:29 PM ----------

I did see a thread around here with a tutorial on how to edit the bands in the phone and even add more bands. But you have to be rooted.

I'm going to try it when I get the spare $25 for the Sunshine app.
[Verizon HTC One (M9)] TheXev:
From my experience tearing down my VZW M9, I think that the VZW version has a completely different antenna. When I replaced my USB port, I noticed the VZW version only has one antenna connector going to the USB connector, where the GSM versions you see in tear down videos have two.
[Verizon HTC One (M9)] Achi Shukuteki:
There was a thread where someone mentioned to edit some folders in setup, I think, and relabel Verizon to whatever GSM you're switching to.

But I can't find it.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] RemE:
Hey Xultar, come on over. Despite the driver fever I'm telling you flat out that the Kaiser is better than the 8525. I've used it for hours on end streaming my Slingboxes over WiFi and 3G without issue. I also play videos (encoded at 320x240 with bitrates under 500kps) that I've used with all my portable gear from Archos units to iPAQ's and they play just fine on the Kaiser as well.

I'd be more concerned with the lower volume on bluetooth ear pieces compared to the 8525, it's useable but a little irratating that it's not top notch.

The unit has been so stable that I've not needed to flash from the stock Kaiser rom, just using a bunch of cabs and Kaiser Tweak. The GPS is really an awesome addition, worth the trade-up alone in my book. I looked into insurance and it was more than $149 so when ATT had a Thanksgiving sale, I picked up a Tilt for $149 and keep it in the box as my insurance. If I do put it in service, I will flash it for sure, prolly to Sleuth's v1.1 as I like it the most, slim and solid.

If you do it, I'm betting that you will be happy.

I just don't know if I can. I'm really concerned about the driver issue and just keeping what I have working. I can't live without my slingbox or video Star Trek TOS eppys. Plus the bluetooth on the 8525 was to low for me. I couldn't imagine it being lower.

What is coming down the pike? Maybe I will go for it. I just need to think. I also need to find out how many upgrades I get a year. That may impact it as well.

Hi guys.

So I've used multiple backups to try to login to my snapchat account (an earlier one that worked before, and another one right before i logged myself out).

BUT, after i restore snapchat to that version and open it, it works for a moment (a second), then freezes, then logs me out with the message (you have been logged out).

I'm completely devastated.

S.O.S.

Thanks :).

Phone: SAMSUNG-SM-G935V
[General Questions and Answers] donpiano:
Did you ever figuire this one out? Just happened the same to me.

Was without my android for a few days, so I logged into an iphone. Now when I get my android back, Im logged out.

I had a backup from Titanium backup, but - like you - it just logs me in for a short while and then (presumably) calls home and disconnects me.

Edit:

I found this article from yesterday:

"Snapchat will check your SafetyNet status only during your first login. If you root your smartphone after installing Snapchat, you can continue using the app as normal. But this doesn’t work the other way round, as Snapchat will no longer allow you to login after rooting. "

Edit2: (1 hr later, and it is fixed)

I use Superman ROM and Magisk for SU, but should work on any ROM with Magisk.

There are many good tips for bypassin SafetyNet with Magisk on this page:

I ended up using the Module "Universal SefetyNet Fix". Downloaded it, flashed it in Magisk, restarted - DID hide it in Magisk Hide (which they say you don't need to, but I did anyway). Then I loaded my titanium backup, and got the failed login - but that's ok, because now the safetynet hide works, so I just logged in normally. No need for titanium backup version.

[General Questions and Answers] Tiqqy:
I rooted using SuperSU before installing Snapchat and I ran into the same problem. Luckily, an app called 'Root Switch' did the trick for me.

Guide (Assuming you are already rooted using SuperSU and not able to log in at all now or you do not want to switch to Magisk):

1) Install Root Switch https://goo.gl/5nPJUm

2) Open Root Switch > tick on 'Stop all su daemons' > and then toggle 'Enabled' to 'Disabled' (This stops all the apps from detecting root on your phone)

3) Try logging into Snapchat and it should work fine

4) Go back to Root Switch > toggle 'Disabled to 'Enabled' > untick 'Stop all su daemons' and ta da, you are back to your rooted phone. (If you are unable to do this step, just restart your phone)

Optional: You can delete the app now but if you think you will need it for something else, you can keep it.

Cheers

When you flashed Magisk, did you flash the SafeNet tools as well?

Uninstall/remove/delete it then boot to recovery and wipe cache then reboot and reinstall it like normal.

[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
If you have custom recovery, boot to recovery and wipe oly the cache and Dalvik/ART cache, DO NOT FACTORY RESET.

If you have stock recovery, boot to recovery and wipe cache partition, DO NOT FACTORY RESET.

If you did everything correctly, this should reload the app.
[General Questions and Answers] darshan1504:
Okay so I delete the .apk file and then go to TWRP and wipe cache right?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
No, I think you might be alright if you just leave it and boot to TWRP then tap the "wipe" option, then tap "advanced wipes" then select cache partition and Dalvik/ART cache, then slide the slider to wipe them, do not wipe system or data, only the caches, then reboot. If you have everything right it will load the app as a system app and be in app drawer, if it isnt, let me know.

I think you may have only missed that one step, any time you are adding apps to system or removing apps from system, you have to boot to recovery and wipe the caches then reboot.
[General Questions and Answers] darshan1504:
Yes I missed that step. I will clear the cache and get back to you

Can you tell me if any app when converted to system app misbehave or crash?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Sometimes, it depends on the app, the device it's installed on and/or Android version. No way to know for sure which ones unless you try them.
[General Questions and Answers] darshan1504:
It didnt appear in the app drawer. Its still there in system/priv apps
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Hmm. Delete it from /system/priv-app, if it's in its own folder in /system/priv-app then delete the whole folder, then go to /data/data and delete the bass booster folder.

Then boot to recovery and wipe the caches again, then reboot, reinstall bass booster.

Then install ES File Explorer, enable root explorer in ES File Explorer, then mount r/w permissions, then go to /data/data, find the bass booster folder, press and hold on the folder(do not open the folder), tap the "more" button, select "move to", navigate to /system/priv-app, place the bass booster folder in /system/priv-app folder, then exit ES File Explorer.

Then reboot to recovery, wipe both caches, reboot.

Then send if it's working right, if not, go to /system/priv-app and make sure it has system app permissions.

Sir I am facing problems with ES File Explorer. It just disables the root explorer and says that there's some problem. This is the reason why I am using root browser instead of ES file explorer
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
You aren't properly rooted then or something.

Use root browser then, just move the whole folder(not just the .apk), make sure app permissions are correct. Then after you move it, boot to recovery and wipe caches then reboot. This is more reliable than using links2sd or other apps to convert apps to system apps
[General Questions and Answers] darshan1504:
