[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] s3axel:
As been said before: my main reason for rooting is backup (TiBu) ! Its actually the only reason left that I could not replace by other means.

Other reasons are: ad blocking (but there are rootless solutions that do ok), customization (but could live without if need be) and debloating (also with TiBu plus MyAndroidTools) for improved battery life.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] 0xTJ:
For me, the main reason is Titanium. Just because you don't care, doesn't mean that no one does. Root can do a lot. I use greenify, have that battery monitor app, etc. All use root.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] sjs87:
I've rooted every android device I've ever owned prior to the OP5 first and foremost because I'm a bit of a tech nerd so naturally I like tinkering with electronics. I was able to add a bunch of useful features and enhancements through exploring root. But with the OP5, only thing I see that I would need root for is a proper ad blocking solution.

Bottom line is that most devices now a days work fine for daily use out of the box but everyone has individual reasons why they root. Same justification as to why some of us modify our cars. They drive fine in stock trim, but some of us want to make it our own.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] n0013z:
Totally agreeing with you. There isn't much of a need to root the phone, but I still root mine for the hell of it. Haven't done anything yet that requires root though. Still, it's nice having the option there.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] emilrune:
Actually a really good point, I too often end up rooting, checking out some roms, want more customisation and all of a sudden I've flashed my device 17 times over and spent more time setting the same stuff up over and over. It's that elusive "I just need this one more tweak sh*t to make my phone perfect"....when there's no such thing as a perfect device:p
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] adrman:
I've rooted every device I've had until now as well, but I've been going on 2 weeks with no root. I thought the only reason I'd end up rooting was for ad blocking, but then I discovered my VPN service added an ad block feature to their mobile app. If I keep the phone long enough, I'm sure I'll root it, but for now I don't have a good reason.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Gaurav.Stallion:
I've rooted all my previous devices the day I got them, with OP5 being the exception. Simply because I don't have the time any more to maintain a rooted device with updates, ROM changes and everything.

I used to root so I could get the most out of the hardware, particularly battery life. Kill all the bloatware running around in the background, including some GApps.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] invinciblecc:
Exactly.. If I feel the need... I will feel the need to rot at maximum.... I dint think I'll be switching to custom roms anytime soon ... And specially not custom kernels....
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] invinciblecc:
Yup... Tried both if then dude dns66 and adguard both are kind of VPN service and route your traffic... They kinda reduce your download speeds
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] invinciblecc:
Yea agree...kinda the same with me... Only reason I feel like rooting it is adblock
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] invinciblecc:
Haha... Been there done that mate...

Galaxy s3 I even setup the siya kernel for dualbooting n all...

In the end got so habitual at changing roms that phone used to be used for everything other than as a phone...

Used to loose my notes...

If you flash so much... You stop giving a **** about your less important data...

Even used to delete TBA files... If I needed space...

My friends used to say.... Your phone never gets picked..

Had to ask people for their no again and again because Google contact backup wasn't foolproof back then... And some roms used to mess that up...

I actually was thinking of purchasing an iPhone just to have a phone that works... Without me having to do anything with it...cos it's all fun... But when life becomes busy... Yoj just want something that works.

Like all the time... Now I wanted to root and install custom rom on this device... The first day it came out....

But now I know better... If I do that.. It's again endless xda scrolling for me... Looking for new stuff..

Anyways all this... I just wrote off the sale of discussion! MO particular reason! l
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] invinciblecc:
I was also feeling the temptation but was pressed on time so thought to discuss it before taking the step...

I even stopped fidgeting with my pc... Installed Ubuntu and windows along side and I have swore not to install another Ubuntu distro now

Checked all of them... It's like an addiction which just keeps on mounting....

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] wolfson61:
Hi guys,

I have Redmi Note 4 Global version (SD625 4gb RAM 64gb storage). I had a problem about IMEI and tried to fix it. Finally i fixed it, but now when i insert the sim card, phone recognises the sim card, asks me pin code. No problem till here. After entering pin code, phone unlocks but there is no service all the time. When i try to make a call it says "Turn off airplane mode to make a call." and "RADIO OFF" in the screen, as i marked in the photo.

In the Hardware Test section (*#*#6484#*#*) sim detect "passed" as showed at the picture.

What i did for fixing;

1. Flashed china developer rom; did not work,

2. Flashed global developer rom; did not work,

3. Flashed NON-HLOS.bin file from gobal developer rom via fastboot adb; did not work,

4. Flashed gobal stable rom; did not work,

5. Flashed NON-HLOS.bin file from gobal stable rom via fastboot adb; did not work,

6. Tried to flashed .qcn file from another Redmi Note 4 Global version but get an error on this and could ot do this,

7. Flashed RR rom by TWTP, clean flash; didn't work,

8. Flashed latest developer rom from xiaomi.eu; didn't work.

I show about phone section for my phone at the picture too. I have bootloader unlocked, no root access for now (i had before and can get easly)

Please help...

Non hlos is for baseband and ur baseband is perfect as your wifi is working. Chk your sim or go to service centre but before that. Flash global stable 8.2.5 dont go there with custom rom installed
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] sudeep22:
flash full rom by fastboot method
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] wolfson61:
I flashed global stable rom which I downloaded from MIUI site via fastboot with delete all option before, nothing changed. What do you mean as full rom?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] sudeep22:
how much time it taken to complete flashing
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] wolfson61:
I just flashed with flash all option and it took 353 seconds, you can see in the picture.

but later i realized there ise another option on mi flash tool's drop-down menu, it says "flash_factory.bat" tried to flash with this option but i got an error, i think rom must be different for this option. so i will google for that, do you think it could help?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] sudeep22:
you should ask for .xqcn or .qcn file of working redmi note 4 mobile here or in community , then you restore it. It will restore all baseband in your mobile and surely solve your problem, but it will also restore IMEI of that mobile in your mobile, so you should try this with your nearby users which can easily support you and later you can change imei with your own IMEI

here a link of smilllar situation and has .qcn http://en.miui.com/thread-545300-1-1.html

you may try it your own risk

In fact, i tried it before but got an error says "The ESN of the phone does not match the ESN of this file containing RF calibration data" so i had cancelled the process.

And nothing happend to my origina IMEI.

For Any Mi Device if radio is off

first need to flash with edl or fastboot mode for any issue related to network baseband imei radio,but after all there is no luck

My LG v10 stuck on LG Logo, but when I attach an USB cable with computer it further goes to att logo and after 3 or 4 spins, it again stuck on att logo. I can get into download mod but not recovery or safe mod. I tried to flash my phone with LGUP but it shoes unknown model. tried with upper cut and common folder options but no luck. LG flash toll 2014 does not detect my phone and application stop responding when I try to read phone information. tried on different computers, different USB cables and different windows but the result is same. Once I had a LG f350 and faced the same problem. Only LG Flash tool 1.8 worked for my LG F350. I am hope full it may work for my LG H900 but I can't find TOT+dll file for LG H900 nowhere. Any one can help please.

I was on 5.1.1. rooted, Super SU and busy box installed when I tried to factory reset my phone and got into this trouble.
[AT&T LG V10] Shahidessa:
More Problems

I got a LG Firmware Extractor from a post on XDA. Extracted the KDZ file and got a .dz and .dll file. extractor also showing another file (something like .dllyib i think) but I ignored that and extracted what I needed. After that I flashed my phone with lg flash tool 1.8.. but flash tool kept on installing system file after 100% but my phone was stuck on 99%. After 117 % flash tool showed "waiting for connection" and then failed. I tried to reflash and got the same result. Now after showing LG screen, my phone got stuck on a black screen showing some bars going up and text "MiniOS" and stuck on this screen. I searched for the solution and some one told me to disconnect phone when flashing reached at 99% and then reattach it after changing the port. I did that but what I got was worse than before. :crying: Now I can get into recovery screen but after applying factory reset, phone goes off and restart again without doing any thing. My phone is stuck on boot loop at LG Logo. it keep booting when i connect to a charger or my computer . I cant get into download mod now. when I try to get into download mod, the screen with some dots appear and then phone restart again without going into download mod. when I connect my phone to PC it only do boot looping and nothing appear on my computer. My phone does not appear in device manager. Is there anything I can do now????????

[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] trecnoc:
tl;dr: Updated to 7.1.1 OTA then installed twrp 3.1.1-0 had it apply what I assume is the F2FS kernel fix, now phone won't boot into system

Yesterday I was trying to update my rooted phone from MM to the latest software. I did this by reverting everything back to stock using this guide and that worked without a problem. Once it was back to stock I upgraded all the way up to the most recent OTA from Motorola (7.0.1 I believe), and then I upgraded up to the most recent 7.1.1 OTA manually using this guide. After all the updating I then flashed twrp 3.1.1-0 and booted into it. This is where things went wrong, after booting into twrp for the first time I asked me if I'd like to like to apply what I'm assuming is a kernel with the F2FS fix, I didn't think much about it and accepted it. In retrospect this was a very bad idea seeing as the F2FS fix for 7.1.1 hasn't been released yet. Now whenever I try to boot into the system the bootloader warning screen shows "ID: bad key" and won't boot. I can still get into the bootloader for fastboot and the twrp recovery but I don't know what to do from here in order to fix it. If anyone could help me fix this I'd really appreciate it!
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] tag68:
f2fs fix is Kernel. You need an original boot.img of your currently installed firmware version and flash that to uninstall f2fs. Then it should work.

My advice in general:

Before doing any updates: do a full Nandroid backup.

Before modifying boot partition (f2fs fix, install Magisk or SuperSU or phh superuser) do a backup of at least boot.img. it may be a good idea to do a system backup (system boot recovery logo oem). Will help for OTA updates.

Before modifying recovery, back it up.

Before doing any modifications, save your data (data partition, but careful: /data/media is excluded here! You need that additional).

I hope I'll learn to keep all this in mind too without getting out of patience ;)
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] tpx00:
I just spent the last day going through your exact issues. Pm me if you need instructions and files. I can look up exactly what firmwares and fastboot commands I used to get back to normal.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] copymaker:
Hi.

I remember when I had s6 edge that there was an issue with samsung s6 clear view cover as it coused scratches to the screen.

Do you have any similar problems with clear view cover for s8? Id9 like to buy it but I don't like to have any screen protectors applied.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] rabilancia:
I have/use the Samsung Clear View case with my S8+. I too do not use a screen protector. I've seen no scratches on the screen so far.

The case is nice but it is just as bad of a "fingerprint magnet" as the naked device. I really did prefer the S-View case implementation on my Note 5 and Note 7.
