[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] jhleo1:
Huawei P9 Plus was my first Huawei Phone. When I purchased it somewhere August 2016, I feel very exciting of the quality of the phone. However, day after day, feel that Huawei very slow in release the phone firmware even Huawei P9 was one of their best selling phones. Huawei seems don't care of the software development and continue support of its phones.

What can we do? My next phone will not be Huawei.

I saw vie-l29c636b382 on firmware finder. anyone try yet?
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] jhleo1:
I tried by using proxy method. Not working since the file not signed by Huawei yet. You can do it if you have rooted by using TWRP method.

i cannot install, coming from vie-l29c636b202. what version were you from?
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] jhleo1:
VIE-L29C636B370 . You test "Check Firmware Access" in FF app first and see. Mine mentioned Firmware approved for installation model then only can install.
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] mangdionisio:
It says approved for installation but still cannot. maybe i should also come from b370

It's not simple to have custom rom on it, Sony provides only the Kernel sources. To build a rom we need the "device tree" and "vendor tree" too. On XA I'm trying to build missing trees from scratch.

That, and my carrier locking my bootloader, is what pisses me off with my XAU.. this is my first Sony device ever, and might probably be my last..

Odd, but my other MTK phones have better development. My Jiayu G3 and Neo M1 have lots of ROMs back then. Maybe to much SOC fragmentation from Sony perhaps?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android2819:
Hello. Having read a bunch of threads for this matter, i haven't yet encountered a solution for my particular problem. It may be impossible altogether.. but i thought i'd hopefully ask anyway.

My device is the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge(SM-G925F, international variant, not carrier branded). I have MM 6.0.1 running on it, with the latest security patch and bootloader that is available in my country, that is:

S6 edge SM-G925F ROM Romania - G925FXXS5DQC1 - downloaded and flashed via ODIN 3.12.3 from sammobile

However, recently i wanted to downgrade to LP 5.0.2(or 5.1.1 - and from there my target is 5.0.2), as i like the look and feel of it more. But, as i have said, upon researching around the forum and on the whole internet i haven't found a positive solution, and i decided to make an account on here and hopefully get lucky.

I've tried multiple ODIN versions, multiple 5.0.2 and 5.1.1. ROMs found on the internet for different countries, but the end result is always the same: download mode says SW REV DEVICE 5 BINARY 1(or 2,3,4)

As for ODIN:

<ID:0/003> Get PIT for mapping..

<ID:0/003> Firmware update start..

<ID:0/003> SingleDownload.

<ID:0/003> sboot.bin

<ID:0/003> NAND Write Start!!

<ID:0/003> FAIL!

<ID:0/003>

<ID:0/003> Complete(Write) operation failed.

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

It doesn't matter to me if i have to root, flash custom roms and custom recoveries all over, i just want to know if there is a way to get my phone on the old bootloader and flash stock 5.0.2 rom.

Any info/advice is appreciated. Thank you all!
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] callumbr1:
The only answer for your query is unfortunately no. You can not downgrade from mm to lp. It is impossible. Sorry its not the news you wanted.

I suppose the only way it could be done is to buy a new motherboard that is on lp firmware and replace the full board.

Other than that there is no way.

Is there any Mi flash tool for mac os?

If yes plz share link.....
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] naturist:
Why do you need Mi flash tool when you can do it via terminal?

Install adb/fastboot drivers, go to launchpad-terminal, use fastboot devices to check if the device is connected.

Go the folder where you've downloaded the fastboot files and than make executable script with "chmod +x ./*.sh" and than flash the fastboot files on your phone by "./flash_all.sh".

Same script is created as an user interface if you find the above method difficult, check this

[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] ccs86:
I noticed something that I hope can be addressed in a future update, in regards to the camera in video mode.

Both 4K and 720P (HD) video resolutions appear to use very close to the full field of view that the sensor provides. But, I was surprised to see that when you set resolution to 1080P (FHD), the field of view is significantly cropped. I would guess ~20% reduction in FoV.

Since it would seem that in resolutions less than the full sensor provides, the camera is selectively scanning / interpolation the image, there would be some freedom in what FoV to use. GoPro does this nicely, with each video resolution having some number of user-selectable field of view options.

The camera on this phone is outstanding, so it's a shame to have a heavily cropped FoV in the most common video resolution.

I'm submitting this to HTC support. If this bugs you, please submit too!
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] ccs86:
I did a quick test with Open Camera, and the FoV stays the same in 1080. Seems to be an issue with the HTC camera app.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] ccs86:
No one else?
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] Travisimo:
Yes, I mentioned this in my initial impressions of the phone after I first received it. I also do not like the narrower field of view when shooting 1080p. I don't know if this will be addressed when they add the 1080p/60 option, but I'm guessing probably not.

Hmm

Was pondering why it is only in fhd, even had idea it is for stabilisation...

[Nextbit Robin] krosseyed@gmail.com:
Is there a fix for getting my Robin out of QDLoader mode? I have resolved it in the past by waiting it out or doing Vol Dn and Power. This time however, wont come out of this mode.

I was paring a bluetooth cable tester (pocketethernet) to the phone when the screen blanked out. I plugged it in to see if I could Fastboot, but there it was, the QDLoader COM port in my device manager.

Thanks for any help with this!

I see these forums littered with the same issues and no one's bothered to see if it's in QHSUSB_Bulk (Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008) mode. Mine just started to do this when I shut it down. Now I cant get it back by holding Power and Vol down, it just reboots it. It was at 85% battery when I shut it down and n ow I can get it to come back on.

but when i tried to check for system update in settings, phone tell me that there's an update and start to download it, but when i install it, here comes up with error stating that:

"Updater process ended with ERROR: 7"

is there someone who have any idea, why this is happening??, does this issue have anything to do with the TWRP recovery?

plus, when i try to check the file that system update have download for me to update, i found in it's name the name Sprint (OTA_M7_WL_K44_SENSE60_SPCS_MR_Sprint_WWE_5.05.651.2-5.03.651.3_realese_393199.zip). does it mean that i'm using HTC sprint version??

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gur79tub:
thanks man

but how do u get that it is M/WLS not M7_UL??

the meid is not zeros.. it's 9000XXXXXXXXX

plus what deference between MID and Firmware ?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
The M7_UL can not have a MEID, it's always 0

Your MID is Sprint (PN0720000)

Your firmware (version-main) is the Sprint version

And i'm pretty sure that if you look at your partition table, you'll see that your phone is partitioned like a sprint variant

adb shell
cat /proc/emmc

M7_UL partition table https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=42403239&postcount=1

M7WLS partition table https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=40326225&postcount=1

(look at /system for example) p35 vs p37

If you bought this phone online and told it was an international/gsm phone you were scammed, its a sprint cdma variant.

To install ota update your phone must be 100% stock (stock recovery, 100% untouched /system partition). You can't install ota update with a custom recovery. Also the M7WLS variant will only work correctly when compatible custom recovery/rom/kernel are installed, Recovery/rom/kernel for the m7_ul will not work on your phone.

You can update the to latest sprint version using the ruu on htc's website or you can flash a sprint compatible custom rom using a sprint compatible twrp.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jackingoose:
A few months ago, I flashed a 6.0.1 cyanogenmod rom(by Alberto96) onto my jfltexx(international) S4. Excellent Rom I must say, but since that flashing, my phone had been dying at 30%, (when I switch on the screen if its 30% or below it'd freeze then switch off). Thinking the ROM was the issue, I then reverted back to stock Samsung 5.0.1, but the issue persisted. I'm not a fan of the stock rom and would like to go back to CM or lineage, any idea what could be causing it?

I've eliminated the fact that it's a faulty battery because this is a new battery, and all my other spares that switch off at 30% work just fine on other devices.

Really hope you can help me resolve this.
