[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Omario-242:
Usually a normal flash with a flash tool shouldn't brick your device in a way that it can't enter stock recovery or download/flash mode.

Did you check the device manager when connecting with volume up/down?

You can try EMMA by Sony to flash full stock, but you need to follow a tutorial to set it up (there's a specific file you need to put in the install directory of the program to skip the devs login).

Sorry for the long absence, after three days of posting this i was about to give up until I plugged my phone into the charger and the led turned on which was a good sign that now I know that the device is still working, after charging it for a couple of hours I connected it to the PC and used "Sony PC Companion" and followed it's steps, and the device was restored to it's original firmware.:laugh::laugh::laugh::cool:

Nope, low light performance is not affected by picture size. If you have a steady hand and set low shutter speed in manual camera (which is pretty easy, at least Sony did the easy part good ;) ) you will get good pictures.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] tjlmbklr:
Sorry for the confusing title, I'm coming from a Nexus 6 that was one of the easier phones to root and customize. So far I'm on month 3 with my V20 and haven't rooted it yet. If I do and receive a OTA I will obviously lose my root, but once I have an unlocked bootloader and custom recovery installed, can I just reflash SuperSU to reroot?

Thanks.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] me2151:
OTAs on this device overwrite the bootloader and recovery. you WILL lose root. and all methods to get it back.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] tjlmbklr:
So then rooting is pointless right now?

Should have got the Pixel.

Thanks!
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] jluca98:
Rooting isn't pointless. You still have access to all the exclusive root features you wouldn't normally have of course. Why would you want to take an OTA anyways unless you have some issue with your phone (just curious)? You could just wait for someone to post TWRP flashable updates for your variant of the V20 so that you can keep root access while still updating.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] tjlmbklr:
I'm waiting on 7.1 and fear I will finally root and it will come along in a OTA and I will not be able to root again until someone comes up with a new form of root.

I could be way off though, like I said, noob question, I came from a Nexus 6 where root and flashing custom ROMs was a cake walk for a guy like me.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] me2151:

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cabalauf:
I'm not sure if this should be posted here or in the development thread for this ROM. Doesn't seem like the developer would have time to troubleshoot everything so I'll try here.

Started process by performing factory reset and even did an advanced wipe for both caches in TWRP.

Flashed RR-N-v5.8.2 saved on external sdcard downloaded from link provided in the dev thread as well as Gapps nano (ARM 7.x). Checked md5 on both files after d/l and in TWRP during flash just to be sure.

Process went smoothly, however upon boot into the new OS it does not recognize the sim card. When setting up the phone after boot the first screen after hitting "'lets go" asks me to insert sim card even though it is already inserted.

I'm coming from an older rom under KK 4.4 but did a factory wipe, etc so do not see what the issue could be. RR rom instructions do not mention needing any change to bootloader or anything but maybe I am missing something.

I really like the rom but obviously without service I can't use it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KLit75:
I've been using several different 7.1.2 roms and battery life has been atrocious. I use wingoku 4.1.

I pair my smart watch to it but even when I use wifi (no bt) its bad, draining quickly, last checked about 22% per hr. Even with screen off listening to podcasts it still will drop a lot more than it used to.

I really don't have much in terms of stats. Honestly I don't obsess much about it normally but now its noticable.

Aside from suggesting another rom & kernel, would I benefit from formatting data and starting over?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Triscuit:
Install accubattery and run it though a few charge cycles, it will be able to tell you the life left in your battery, it's possible that you have the same issue many of us have had with a degradation of the battery.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KLit75:
Yea. Thats my biggest fear. Ive replaced small parts before but my eyesight isn't as good as it used to be so Im afraid I might mess it up. Plus I'll need to buy a heat gun.

I'll be more than a little pissed if the battery's shot. This phone is barely 14 months old. Either give us a decent battery or make it replaceable.

Thanks for the info btw. I just installed the app.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KLit75:
Update--Im switching things up a bit. Recently I made some changes and this time I flashed a new rom without some of those changes.

1. I had switched from Action 3 to Nova

*HIGHLY doubt nova is eating up my battery so Im still using it BUT I did remove a widget that has weather. Since I keep phone on device only location, I think theres a chance its always trying to find my locale and consuming battery.

2. I didn't add a gov profile yet.

3. This is the first time in about 4 or 5 rom flashes I didnt flash CTT Mod.

* Again I doubt this is causing battery issues but Im gonna hold off flashing it. No throttling thus far.

As suggested Ill be monitoring with accubattery for a few cycles. But been using my phone about 90 mins this morning (at least 90% of that time actively using with screen on) and I've lost 13%--a huge improvement from yesterday.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v12xke:
Accubattery for the proof. New battery for the fix. You could always buy online and have it installed locally. Read up on where to score a good replacement battery, rather than another dud.

Okay, sounds good. What does Accubattery report your battery health as? (health tab)
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KLit75:
Its not really giving me much info yet. Because of my schedule throughout the day Ive charged periodically so I have enough juice in case I need it. Do I need to let it run lower to get an accurate reading?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v12xke:
Best to let it run below 20% at least and then fully charge until the APP tells you the battery is full- not your phone. Don't unplug until Accubattery says it is full. What you will observe is that the phone will continue to charge for 45 minutes to an hour past when the phone itself is reporting 100%. You will find the estimated capacity under the Health tab. Once or twice below 20% is enough to get a close approximation. After that it will move a couple percent max. You will know soon enough.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KLit75:
Well it turns out my battery is in need of replacing.

I let it run down like you said. I was going to go further down but once it hit 20% my phone turned off. I plugged it in, opened accubattery and it said 46% under health.

But I just checked again after charging to 100% and it now says 63% (2182 mAh total capacity).

I checked my imei on the Huawei site and my phone is 3 days out of warranty. Im hoping to get them to fix it.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v12xke:
Well sorry to hear that. Good luck to you on the RMA route. If not, the Cameron Sino brand replacement is a bit more expensive but includes a working battery temperature sensor. It will make your phone like new. Note in the thread I referenced above, some parts may get scratched/cracked depending on the skill of the repair person. They aren't expensive so it you are intending to keep the 6P for a while longer, it may be worth it to buy those just in case.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KLit75:
Thanks for the support! I checked that thread and didn't see specific parts (inexpensive ones you referenced) If they're listed Ill look again. It doesn't seem too daunting. I was able to replace the screen on my son's WiU controller. Those were very tiny parts and YES--I did snap off a clip, however I was able to fudge it and it's still working about a year later.

Far as RMA, does anyone know if they replace it with the same crappy stock battery? From my perspective this seems like a clear case where a recall is in order.

But if its the same battery, Im just setting myself up for the same problems 8 to 12 months from now. Even if I buy a new phone Id still want to sell this one and thats not as easy with a crap battery. Plus theyd have my phone for x days so Id need to find a temp phone in the meantime.

Don't mean to jabber on...this sucks.

Oh yeah...cuz it was after hours I sent an email to support last night. Do you think Ill get a response? Or should I just call when I have time to be on hold?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KLit75:
Spoke to a clone at Huawei then asked to speak to the clone's supervisor (wasn't sure if clones had supervisors--they do. But the programming is identical.) Long frustrating phone call and they aren't going to replace my battery because its out of warranty...by 4 f#@&ing days!

I told them they lost a customer for life and I was being 100% sincere. How could I ever buy from people who thinks it ok to sell defective crap, know about it, then do nothing to make things right?

I'm gonna replace the battery on my own. Whether things go good or terrible, one thing is certain--itll be the last time I ever replace anything on any product made by Huawei.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] Poebat:
So ever since I got the S6 I've been hoping that there would be an AOSP rom for it. I noticed that some people mentioned that they had LOS running on their Note 5s. Knowing that the Note 5 has the same CPU as the S6 I looked to see if there was LOS for the s6. Sure enough there is. But I cannot find any builds for the G920p. Do you think that there is any chance that we will be seeing LOS for the G920p?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] hkbladelawhk:
I recently re-flashed MAXIMUM Overdrive after experiencing some battery issues. Upon doing the dalvik, cache, system and data wipes, then reinstalling the ROM, I found myself sitting on the Welcome screen, and unable to get past it after confirming the account my phone had before.

I've tried getting into TWRP to no avail. The Vol Down and power, then yes on both factory resets just takes me to twrp, resets the phone, then reboots, not allowing me to do anything. I can get into Fastboot, but no route to recovery from there. ADB doesn't recognize since I haven't been able to turn on usb debugging yet.

Does anyone happen to have any ideas? I'm basically sitting on a brick at the moment. I'll buy you lunch or a beer if you can manage to be the solution :)

Solved by restoring firmware to stock with LGUP
[General Questions and Answers] eReader Fan:
Hi. I have to flash a TWRP backup and can't do it thorugh custom recovery due I have a Yotaphone (the phone with a LCD screen by one side and a eInk screen by the other side) and the LCD screen is broken, so I have to use fastboot or adb (as far I know). I cannot even install a ROM because it needs the LCD screen for the first start.

The question if I can do it, cause I know it could be problems with formats.

(I asked this on Yotaphone specific xda forum but no one answered)

Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
You would probably have better luck flashing the stock firmware or have someone with the same device create an adb backup then restore it via adb.

Or if you know which individual .img files you need, have them pull a copy of whichever individual .img files you need(for example: system, boot, etc) then fastboot flash them or use adb shell to dd the .imgs back onto your device in the partitions they belong in.

[General Questions and Answers] eReader Fan:
[MENTION=5691352]Droidriven[/MENTION] ,you are right about it would be easy to fash a stock rom, but the LCD screen is necessary for that due the first boot. Maybe I am a little lucky 'cause I live with person who has the same device as me.

I tried the adb backup -all but it seems to just make a backup of the personal data.

Making a dd backup patition would be the better, but for some reason my device isn't recognized as a MTP device and can only connect in PTP. Tried to change the configuration on the phone but still only works with PTP, and I think in PTP mode doesn't have a mounted folder where I can make this stuff.

What I don't know how to do is the dd within the adb shell. It will work connected in PTP mode?

Yes, debuggind mode is on. In PTP mode, adb sees my device correctly, in MTP mode appears like ???????
[General Questions and Answers] eReader Fan:
I think maybe the answer is where that you mentioned about "adb shell". As long as I can't see the phone mounted in MTP mode it's the only way I see. Now I am searching for the way on pointing the dd output file outside the adb shell. So the process is:

BACKUP:

-adb shell > dd partitions saving them outside the phone

FLASHING:

-fastboot partition by partition

Another problem I have is to know which partion is each, 'cause with "mount" I don't get so much information and with "cat /proc/partitions" only have 13 partitions with their size and no more info. I am looking what to "adb push" that can help me. Maybe install busybox.

Trying to backup&restore without MTP, without access to the recovery nor SDcard... Harder is impossible!!!
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
This command in adb shell or Terminal Emulator should give you your partitions and names(obviously you'd type "su" then press enter then run this command)

ls -l /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/

The part with "msm.sdcc.1" might be different for your device. If that command doesn't work I'll help you find what needs to go in that part of the command for your device.

[General Questions and Answers] eReader Fan:
su is not found inside the adb shell, and I found this is cause is not rooted. I have to do it through TWRP in android 6.

As I said, I have two devices of my model so I hope I find time tomorrow for doing it. I also hope to can flashing it to the other device in fastboot mode or some way it doesn't need the main screen (remember I have a LCD screen and a eInk)

I will say something when I do the root. Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] eReader Fan:
Finally did it!

It appears each partitions clearly with the "ls" command you give to me. The question now is how to dd outside the phone. Have I to mount the pc inside the shell or what?
