[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rayofmoonshine:
Hello,

A bit of back story first - yesterday, my mother's Galaxy S6 (SM-G920F) suddenly rebooted to the device's logo screen ( the "Samsung Galaxy S6....powered by android" one) and it's been stuck there since. There had been no "tinkering" so to say with the device; debugging was disabled, the bootloader had not been tampered with at all, and all the updates were done through the official android route. The last major update was around a month ago, to Nougat from MM, after which I cleared the cache. The latest update was about 10 days ago, a minor Nougat one, but the cache had not been wiped.

Now down to business. The phone does not turn off at all. Holding the power button and the volume down just reboots it to the same screen. That being such, I cannot access recovery mode. I can however access Download Mode which makes be believe that all hope is not lost.

Using Odin, I attempted to flash a stock ROM, which for this model was Android v5.1.1, and now I understand why that wouldn't work. At this point instead of the logo screen, it showed a blue screen saying something along the lines of "An error has occurred while updating your phone, please use Smart Switch emergency recovery". I had tried to connect to smart switch before but it wouldn't recognize the device. I was saving initialization as a last resort.

I then flashed the most recent MM ROM for this model (which I found on sammmobile) using Odin, having read it was possible to still downgrade, and believing that perhaps Nougat was causing this problem. And it was successful, except the phone now returned to the logo screen. Again, with the same problems as before. And I still couldn't wipe the data and cache because I still couldn't access recovery mode.

Finally I connected the phone to Smart Switch and chose to initialize it. After going through all the steps, and downloading the files, it said it was successful but the phone is still stuck at the damn logo screen. I can still access download mode for what it's worth but I haven't a clue now as to what I should do next.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

When you write and select options given above, press "Check Update" and then press "Download" to download factory firmware for your device.

Once the download has been finished, extract the zip file that you've downloaded via SamFirm.

After unzip it, download and run this Odin (even if you have another one);

When you open it, press BL and select file which starts with BL from downloaded (from Samfirm) and extacted zip folder.

Do the same thing for AP, CP, CSC.

When you set 4 files to Odin, connect your phone to your PC in download mode and click "Start" on Odin.

If this method doesn't fix you issue, you have to replace the motherboard then.

Get Notifications in your Smartwatch using your default Watch App

With this app you can read on your Watch notifications you receive on your mobile and also reply to many of them.

By default are including many of the messaging Apps and Gmail, but is you can configure it at settings.

If you want to include other notifications, you must activate it so that every time you get a new one, it ask you. If you change your mind then you can change the allowed or denied Apps in the Notifications menu option.

You can use predefined messages reply some notifications like whatsapp, gmail and hangouts. In case you want to add your own predefined messages you have to edit the file you will find at your sdcard root called: GearOptions.txt

Be sure this App is enabled at your default watch software in order to get notifications and try it. If your watch software can show actions like buttons you could see buttons for reply and even send new whatapp/telegram messages.

In the case of whasapp/telegram this App will send the message with the previous messages of the same contact in order to see the whole conversation.

Don't enable the same notifications type on both Apps in order to avoid repetitions.

Tested with:

- Android Wear (Sony Smartwatch 3): Show action buttons

- Sony Smartband Talk: Show action buttons

- D5+: No muestra botones, Only messages

- Samsung Gear S2/S3: Show action buttons

- Samsung Gear Fit 2: Show action buttons

Is your firmware the latest version? And no, that's not the cloud storage you're thinking. I see that dropbox folder since Gingerbread. It's a folder that Android uses to store some logs, traces and ANRs.
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] PalakMi:
I don't see any dropbox file in my honor, it might have been installed and uninstalled previously
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] adriansticoid:
Installed and uninstalled previously? Look harder. You will find it.

Do you have over heating issue before reboot or any software issue, like very lag when open? Have you tried to factory reset your phone? If factory reset cannot resolve this, then I would suspect a hardware failure...

[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] Neo94220:
Hello,

I had the same problem (random reboot on honor 9 with Free operator), just download "Messagerie Vocale Free" on the Playstore, go to tools and deactivate 'Freewifi' option (in the tools tab), then Honor 9 will no more randomly reboot.

Best regards.
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] lillepingu59:
Yep, same problem here too with EAP-SIM with Free operator :(.

De-activating eap-sim through free app tools menu works just like de-activating WiFi while on the go. However this doesn't really solve the problem and should you really need the feature, you're played :(.

Did anyone tried to see if it was fixed with the latest B130 update ?
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] lillepingu59:
No pb since B130 update

Didn't have any random reboot since updating to B130. Could you confirm Twister42?
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] jcdid:
Changed my phone from H8 to H9, experiencing the same problem here (never had random reboots with my H8). Disable freeWifi-secure option in Tools menu didn't solve the issue (go back in application again, free wifi is automatically re-enabled). Still in B100, waiting B130 to check the problem is figured out.
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] jcdid:
I can confirm now, B130 solved the issue.
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] PalakMi:
B130 or b130a?!
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] jcdid:
Just B130 (STF-L09 EUR)
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] PalakMi:
Ah, there's b130a

it is cool because it does not require the device lock home plug in, can be configured via control panel und supports "easy unlock" (device can be activated by only two presses of buttons, with other apps you need two plus one for touching the screen).

it being impossible to get around the saftynet checks because i have a unlocked bootloader i was reading from another phones thread that it can be bypassed by compiling a kernel from source and excluding/removing the flag that shows your phone as saftynet compatible therefor it wont check and always pass. but i have no knowledge on linux or compiling kernels so i was wondering if anyone has done it already?

[Android General] slim6y:
So few years ago I bought a Windows tablet to serve as a second Windows portable device. It served its purpose and now I am upgrading the WT8-A to an Android. So far, I am close. But there seems to be one last major hurdle preventing this from being a success and I would love to be pointed in the right direction for some help.

What I have achieved so far: I installed android fully and it is/was fully functional. However a few major issues have sprung up.

1) I can not reboot the tablet back into Android. The only way possible is to run it "live" (but then I can't save anything) or re-install it. How do I get around the boot issue and where do I start?

2) At first, the entire platform seemed to work perfectly except for a few minor glitches. I couldn't get Bluetooth to work (no biggie, I never use Bluetooth on this tablet anyway) and the camera wouldn't work (also not a biggie, the camera stopped working in a Windows 10 upgrade so no loss there).

3) I left the tablet on and after a few hours the touch screen stopped responding. I could still access everything if I used mouse and keyboard through USB. So I did. Then Android loaded the "Android loading screen" and things went back to normal for a short while. The same thing has continued to happen over and over. The touch screen stops responding, eventually and somehow (still unsure how) Android seems to reload and it all works again.

4) WiFi has stopped working. WiFi worked perfectly in the first day and then by the second day no WiFi networks are being found.

So, I am left with a semi working, non-WiFi capable, non-rebootable ex-Windows now Android tablet and I admit I am stuck at this point.

What is the very first thing I can do at this point to take it one step further and closer to being a success?
[Windows 10 Mobile] the_R4K_:
Hi, if you try install the cab's on your w10m you can get the errors. Sometimes package can be installed incorrectly. Today I show you how reinstall cab package.

WARNING: IT'S IMPORTANT SYSTEM PART, YOU CAN GET BOOT LOOP.

you need:

PC with telnet;

device on w10m build higer 10586;

interopTools;

Let's go:

//if you don't have telnet and reg.exe(if you have go to 2)

1. you need get ssh access https://xdaforums.com/windows-10-mobile/guide-filesystem-access-sftp-windows-10-t3185766

(interopTools have section about this. you need: set password, allow tmp cmd access, allow application running)

download attachment file and extract it

upload it on you device in documents directory.

connect over ssh(telnet if installed) and go to documents directory

enter: install

(it's installing: telnetd,ftpd,bootsh,reg,xcopy,reboot,shutdown)

2. (optional)(or not if you try remove package)

PS1: I think if you try reinstall package, files be rewrited automaticly. but i not sure...

PS2: try ignore this step, if next instalation be failed try do this step

now you need find cab file which you tryed install and extract it(can use 7z)

open .manifest file, whom name consist mainos1

// only if you removing package

it's registry editions doed by this package you can try restore it back.

but facticaly you need remove only drivers and services

for edit registry use reg.exe because interopTools can't remove some keys

// only if you removing package

open .mum file with notepad++(or other program with color xml code)

you find list of files, like this

<file name="..." cabPath=".." />

for you intrested field "name" - it's path to this file in system

you need try remove this files(if you can't delete some file ignore it =) )

3. open cmd.exe on your PC and enter telnet "phoneIp"

now you need remove keys, use "reg.exe delete"

keys to delete you can find in key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Component Based Servicing\PackageIndex\

and

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Component Based Servicing\Packages\

here keys of all installed packages

in final you get command like this:

reg delete "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Component Based Servicing\Packages\PACKAGENAME"

then reboot

//for install package agin

4. connect over telnet, agin)

cd /windows/servicing

UpdateApp.exe getinstalledpackages

if in this list no your package, you doed step 3 correctly

now you can upload correct cab file and enter this command:

updateApp install "fullPathToCab"

PS dont try write in c:\windows\servicing

good luck!
[Windows 10 Mobile] nate0:
Thanks for posting this.

Also [MENTION=387617]spavlin[/MENTION] thanks for the extra tool info for updateapp.exe.

I recently pushed an incorrect .cab file to a phone, or so I thought...Iutool will not let you send the same package again if an already higher version one is there or the same version number is there. I found also that if you have full filesystem access you can go to path C:\Windows\servicing\Packages and remove the associated .cat and .mum file for .cab/package file you sent. This will then let you resend the same package or different version of the same .cab/package again.
[Windows 10 Mobile] the_R4K_:
this directory can be protected for write. more correctly edit registry
[Windows 10 Mobile] nate0:
Correct and why I worded what I wrote with "if". Most folks pushing cabs to their phones are familiar with interop unlocking anyway so figured I would mention that even if it was already known.

Edit: Also I only had to reinstall the same services just different version. I see now your instructions aid in removing everything (drivers reg settings etc.).
[Windows 10 Mobile] nate0:
Are we using the user system/LocalSystem for this access (telnet/ssh)?
[Windows 10 Mobile] the_R4K_:
yes, because other defApps don't have access to same folders and registry values.

LineageOS needs no introductions. This version of LineageOS-12.1 is a highly customised version solely for the Amazon Fire 7"

- EVEN MORE IMPORTANT: As of January 2019 this ROM only works on devices using the bootloader hack. See <<< HERE >>> to unlock your devices.

- IMPORTANT: Do not update Magisk via the Magisk Manager App, your device will enter a bootloop if you do. Instead update Magisk via TWRP only. If you do this by accident then it is recoverable by just flashing the latest version of the ROM again (with gapps etc as required).

Rules

- Please search the thread before asking questions

- Please try to stay on topic, I know it's not always possible

- Please report bugs here

- Report only one issue per bug report

- When reporting bugs please post a logcat and/or dmesg containing pertinent information regarding the issue...

Prerequisites for Installation

- Unlocked Bootloader

- TWRP Installed

Clean flashed this pup w/GAaps Nano and Xposed Framework. Disabled journaling for giggles & grins. Using integrated root manager. Connected and booted up w/o a hitch. Far to early for definitive statements but every operation I have attempted during the past 30 min (mostly set-up stuff, installing apps, configuring Xposed modules, multiple reboots) has gone without a hitch. Hoping to find time for detail testing this weekend. While partial to AOSP ROMs I do find Lineage to be an attractive offering with a nice suite of UI enhancements baked in.
