[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeefJC:
Hi guys,

I'm Australian, looking at buying a Korean Note Edge: N915S/K/L .

Without rooting the phone, what ROMs can I put on it to replace the Korean stock ROM it already has?

Reason being Pokemon GO. It's dead yes, but a friend and I still want to play it together. I hear Pokemon GO can be played on rooted devices now, but for added messing around/uncertainty, so I'm more just interested in what my options are for replacing the Korean ROM without rooting.

Thanks!
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Manager11:
Hi to all,

I have a Problem with my Huawei P8 Lite. I made a complete Back-Up of my Smartphone and now I wanted to restore my Smartphone now based on the Back Up Files, which I have on my Notebook. If I try to use the Huawei HiSuite for this Restore Process, HiSuite tell me that I have to Up-Date the Huawei Back Up App to the last Version. Topic is that on the Smartphone the latest Version of this App is already set. Every Time i try to start the Restore Process I receive this Message from HiSuite. Result? It is not possible to start the Restore Process.

What I make wrong? Can someone help?

I am not really a technician and I am near to be "pissed off"......

Also the Instructions on the Huawei Customer Support Website deliver no Answer for my Problem.

So - If someone is able to help - please do so....

Thanks in Advance and regards,

Markus
[HTC One S] Gr3y4nt:
Hi!

I recently acquired an HTC One S (ville) with HBOOT 1.13, Radio 1.11, simlocked.

I have installed a few roms but i have two problems:

I can't achieve to upgrade to HBoot 1.16

I can't achieve to unsimlock it (i have the code, but it does not work)

I have successfully unlocked my bootloader, installed TWRP as a recovery and rooted it. But i can't go S-Off, which prevents me to do anything more.

As of today, i can't use the phone, as i need it to be simlock free. :crying:

Have you got any idea for me? I have tried a lot of different methods, and now i don't know what to do. Thank you!

How come you can't turn S-Off? What happens when you try turning S-Off? What phone model do you have? S3, or S4? If S4, have you tried this tutorial? https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1693491

Im not sure about S3, but maybe the link from this post will help you: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=69233720&postcount=546

To be honest, both methods look legit to me, maybe you can try them and report back! :)

Good luck! :)

A Mega mirror if possible? Thanks. AFH is taking too long.

I've uploaded it to MEGA

[Nextbit Robin] Mchasard:
Hi is this stock the same and included also the 100 go memory cloud ?
[Nextbit Robin] kwattro76:
Yes
[Nextbit Robin] Mchasard:
Thanks for your answer otherwise the size of this ROM is big 1.2go oops...
[Nextbit Robin] kwattro76:
That's about right. If you take a vanilla nougat rom and and then add the largest gapp package you there you have it.
[Nextbit Robin] Mchasard:
OK it's due to the largest gapps ... Generally I'm using pico not the largest... Thanks

Is there a way to root to delete some system apps?
[Nextbit Robin] crian:
Just flash your favorite su app and delete some system apps.

This is just a flashable zip of the stock rom. So there are the same gapps as the factory image got.
[Nextbit Robin] epicboy:
Anyone try that unofficial xposed on this rom?
[Nextbit Robin] bilged:
Thanks this is great. All the custom roms have too many stability bugs to be reliable enough for a daily phone. As this is stock with no recovery though, could I relock the bootloader while keeping twrp and root - therefore getting rid of the warning message on boot? Would this cause problems?
[Nextbit Robin] /root:
Omni and LOS works fine for me. Seems pretty table overall to me for daily use.

Anyway to answer your question, locking the bootloader will require you to flash the stock recovery which means you will lose TWRP as TWRP is the custom recovery that replaces the stock recovery.

When you root the device you are modifying the boot.img and system partitions so it won't be advisable to lock the device and try to keep root as it might not function properly and worse could brick your device. Because if anything goes wrong and your bootloader is locked there is no way to fix that issue, the point of keeping a custom recovery is so that you can fix any problem that could arise because of the modified system files.
[Nextbit Robin] bilged:
Ok got it. Thanks for the quick answer. As for the roms, I was using Omni but I was getting crashes when using GPS (Waze) and nfc never seemed to work reliably. I switched to LOS when Omni stopped updating but I've had similar issues with it as well. Stock works well but it would be nice to have up to date security patches.
[Nextbit Robin] /root:
I am currently using LOS but was on Omni most of the time as Omni was really stable and updated that time. But Omni started eating a lot of battery and stopped providing updates, so I switched to LOS as soon as LOS 15 was released for Robin. GPS worked fine for me on Omni too, it sometimes had problem locking the location but navigation on Google Maps worked as it should. Waze I used a few times it didn't crash that time. But not a regular Waze user.

Did your clean flash the ROM?

Can't tell you about NFC as I sadly have no reason to use it.

By the way, how is your battery? Mine is degrading bad. My SOT has gone from 3-4hrs to 2-2.5hrs. :( over the 2+ years of owning this device. Not only that, below 30-40% it would shut down on running any heavy app like Camera or Maps or Music Streaming. Battery is degrading badly.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sberla365:
Hi everybody,

I am new to the forum and new also to modifying android phones. I have a G900F and I wanted to try a few custom ROMs. I first installed Lineage 14.1 and everything went pretty smooth. After I wanted to try the official S5 MIUI7 v6.5.27 which I downloaded from the MIUI website. I wiped everything I could and installed the zip file with TWRP. There was no progress bar but it seemed to perform tasks. When finished, I rebooted but the phone is stuck on the Samsung logo without any progress. I tried many times and I always had the same issue. Could you please help me out with this? What can I do to fix the install issue? My phone is now working (installed the Super Lite by Vincom) but I would like to give MIUI a try. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yazeed_twb:
Miui 7 is based on android lollipop so you gotta flash lollipop bootloader and modem in order to get it working.

I would like to suggest you MIUI 8 by blackbuga, you can find the thread on Galaxy s5 development (snapdragon).
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sberla365:
Thanks! That was a quick reply!

I imagined that there was some issue of this kind. I was driven to v7 for its being an official release and stable. I saw that blackbuga's is beta and thought it was unstable. Well actually I wasn't relying on my skills, as I said I have been playing around with rom's for a week or so.

I'll give that a try

phone seemed to get a factory wipe and i re-enable the usb debug again in the develope mode

then reboot to recovery use adb command

adb reboot recovery

but after reboot, i can only get lg's recovery. I've tried to re-flash twrp use fastboot,but every time i reboot to recovery i could only get lg recovery only, there is on way to reboot to twrp.

anyone can help me to get boot into twrp, thank you

Can a mod please move this thread to the proper location?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] TheIronMaiden:
This thread should be moved to the q&a section
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] mking007cn:
but can u tell me how to reboot straight to recovery while finish flash recovery in fastboot mode, i can't find way do this.

I have unlock the bootloader so each time i boot up the phone, first there is a lg logo displaying for about 2 second and then a warning msg will appear on the screen. this warning message will display on the screen for about ten second and then a lg logo appear again then boot the android system. i don't know how to interrupt the normal boot process and get into recovery manual.

when i use adb to reboot to recovery, lg recovery will appear after the warning message screen off. i turnoff the phone and press power+down button together to try to get into recovery manually, but after the lg logo appear the second time, there is no way to start recovery. the phone will boot to android directly.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] TheCoryGuy:
Also having this problem, however when I hold the POWER+VOLUME DOWN buttons to try to boot into recovery after shutdown/battery removal - the system STILL loads.

I get the warning saying the bootloader is unlocked though. After that the phone just starts up as normal, even though I'm holding the buttons
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] mking007cn:
here is the step i find finally

1. re-boot into fastboot mode

2. flash twrp use fastboot command.

3. power-off the phone

4. power-on with power and volume down button holding

5. while lg log appears, release power button immediately for 1 second and then hold again

6. when recovery selection screen appears, select 'yes' both two times.

now phone boot to twrp recovery.

REMEMBER: WHEN YOU BOOT INTO LG'S SYSTEM AGAIN, YOU WILL LOST TWRP. IF U WANT TO USE TWRP AGAIN, U MUST RE-FLASH TWRP AND REPEAT THE STEPS ABOVE. THIS WILL LOST ALL DATA(PHONE WILL GET FACTORY RECOVERED)!!

I hope this can help you, good luck.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] runningnak3d:
You need to delete the file recovery-from-boot.p in /system

Each time you boot, that file gets executed and restores the stock recovery from recoverybak. Alternatively, you can flash TWRP to both recovery and recoverybak.

[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] GabrielMed:
Anex
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] xdadevet:
Sorry, that's just MIUI. If you want to solve your phone's performance issues then you have to use an AOSP based ROM. Try completely wiping your phone, convert the Data and Cache partitions to F2FS in TWRP, and flash LOS.

Alternatives to the best parts of MIUI:

-MIUI themes -> Substratum

-MIUI equaliser -> Viper4Android

-MIUI dual apps (WhatsApp) -> Install GBWhatsApp alongside normal WhatsApp

-MIUI Camera -> Google Camera + 120fps fix/OPO camera for manual controls

-MIUI Dual Space -> Multiple user accounts

Honestly, I don't really miss any part of MIUI anymore. Camera performance is close to the original, performance is leaps and bounds ahead. I haven't even flashed an update to LOS in a month because everything just works so well.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] abit:
I did rotate my photo for 90° in the photo album and save, then the file size become BIGGER than the original one, why will become like this?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] pete4k:
Since you didn't mention how bigger the file was, one can only speculate, but did you use lossless rotation?

If yes, the file could grow larger because a) additional metadata added to exif (pic info) b) could be adding thumbnail, c) even lossless rotation requires some of the data to be re-encoded and therefore change file size.

If it wasn't lossless rotation, not only the whole picture was re-encoded and file size changed , but also some of fine detail was lost during compression.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] abit:
Not sure is it lossless rotation. I just did it in the media album app which is original in s8, use : Edit → Transform → Rotate, then the file size from 3.13MB become 4.60MB
[HTC U11  Guides, News, & Discussion] wfred:
Pre-ordered a Ull to replace the M8 I've had since it came out.

Put in my M8 SIM and everything worked great, but the M8 was still listed under "My Devices" on the VZW site and the U11 wasn't an activation option.

A couple of days later the mobile data started getting wonky so I stopped by the Verizon store. The guy there thought it might be an issue with the old cut-down SIM card (originally from my Droid Maxx) so he activated a new SIM on my M8 since the U11 still wasn't showing up as a device option

Switched the card to the U11, it showed up under "My Devices" registered on the network, but would not make or receive calls. Texts would go through, but the phone showed them as being "failed".

After several back & forthes between VZW & HTC support Verizon says that the phone is activated and everything is properly set up on both ends, but the network sees the phone as turned off. HTC says they've had a lot of complaints about this sort of thing and I can't make or receive calls because 'Verizon doesn't know how to properly activate an LTE only phone". The VZW folks have gone way beyond minimum requirements while the HTC people have been unhelpful and obviously just following a script.

So, I got a RMA from HTC and shipped my U11 back. I'll stick with my rooted M8, running Venom, until it bites the dust. But I probably won't replace it with another HTC phone.
[HTC U11  Guides, News, & Discussion] sdamark:
Same problem. mine is going back tomorrow. Might reorder if this get straightened out. Really like the phone.
[HTC U11  Guides, News, & Discussion] wfred:
So did I.

I hated to see it go, but the Verizon techs went way beyond what I expected, especially since I didn't buy the phone from Verizon, while the HTC chat person was a childish, rude and flat-out lied and I could barely understand the HTC phone lady who was obviously just reading off of a script. C'mon, the largest cell phone carrier in the country doesn't know how to activate a phone?
[HTC U11  Guides, News, & Discussion] GLO:
I'm in Australia and bought an unlocked U11. Which can be used on any Aussie network.

We don't have the Verizon thing where you have to select the device before using it.

Try another carriers sim and if it works then something in VZW is hindering it.
[HTC U11  Guides, News, & Discussion] sdamark:
This much we already know...

There seems to be a problem with some devices not working on Verizon's network.

So far there is no solution.

Some seem to get on without issues.

I connected right away and was happy for 2 days.

I've been booted off the Verizon network since.

Sending this device back tomorrow for a refund.

I can not afford a Wi-Fi only device that can not make calls.

Until Verizon fixes this problem I'll sit and wait.

I only want my HTC U11 to work.

Verizon needs to fix this.

Not that much to ask for.
[HTC U11  Guides, News, & Discussion] ieatabiscuit:
HTC said they are working on a firmware update to address this, but who knows when that will come to fruition. Other than this, I have no useful information to update with.
[HTC U11  Guides, News, & Discussion] GLO:
Can you pop your sim card back into your M8 and use for a few days, then pop back into the U11.

The carriers can tell what device you are using ( 1st least in Australia) and may be blocking it only when you registered it. Since you mentioned it worked prior you registering the phone.
