[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] GiulioG10:
Hi everyone, recently I've had 2 problems with my honor 8 pro. The first one is that suddenly, when I connect my phone to the pc and I select mtp the pc doesn't recognize it. It is a pc problem because on another one it works flawlessly. I can make it recognize it with hisuite but it doesn't serve the purpose of transferring files.

The second problem is that suddenly I can't delete files from my SD card.

Does any of you have any idea about one or the other issue?
[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] kruga:
Sandisk micro sd card? They have a 'feature' that if your card becomes (about to?) defective, it becomes read only.

[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] _zxzxzx_:
I'm at a bit of a loss on what to do right now. I had an Xperia XP (F8132) which died on me, so I got a new one with warranty replacement. I had a TWRP backup of my entire old phone, so I did an official bootloader unlock of the new F8132, and then flashed the TWRP recovery. I then tried to restore the backup of my old phone and had everything selected, though it appeared to fail, saying something about the data partition not being flashed. Anyway, I decided to reboot the phone, only to find that it would not boot.

I can not get the phone into flashboot or recovery at all. As soon as I plug the phone into a computer, it will go into flashmode (green LED), regardless of what buttons are pressed. I've tried holding down the power and volume buttons for a soft/hard reset though neither seem to do anything. The screen doesn't power on either, so I can't tell what the power level is or whether the phone is on or off. Now, when I attempt to reset the phone, there are no vibrations or any indicators.

Nothing appears to happen when I plug the phone in to charge. I think it warms up a bit, but there are no LEDs. For the past few days, the phone has simply sat on my desk doing nothing.

In short, my phone appears to be bricked, and all I get is a green LED when I plug it into the computer. I've attempted to flash a stock FTF, but it fails every time with "Processing of partition.sin finished with errors". So...any advice?
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] bkk99213:
Method1 : Maybe ftf error, try another one.

Method2: relock bootloader and use Xperia™ Companion to repair.

P.S. TWRP backup cannot cross drvice to recovery the data and system.
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] _zxzxzx_:
I've tried a few things, though none have worked so far.

I've tried using two different FTF files I've downloaded, and one that I bundled using Xperifirm and Flashtool but all give the same error. It appears that flashing will fail regardless of what I exclude, and even trying kernel.sin on its own doesn't work.

I am able to unlock and relock the bootloader using Flashtool, but I get a "getphoneinfofailure" UE_302 from Xperia companion, so that doesn't seem to work either.

I think this may have happened because I renamed my old TWRP backup to match the serial of my new device to try to restore it. I probably shouldn't have done that. I'm looking at the guide to "Recover 2012 and newer XPERIAs from SOFT-brick" by Toledo_JAB, but I can't quite tell what my battery level is at the moment. The phone has no reaction whatsoever normally, and no LEDs when plugged into a charger, but will enter flashmode whenever plugged into a computer.
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] bkk99213:
Can you enter fastboot mode(blue LED) or TWRP?
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] _zxzxzx_:
No, I'm unable to get the screen to power on in any way, so unable to get into recovery. Strangely, fastboot does not work either. Regardless of whether the volume up, volume down, or no button is held when I plug it into the computer, I get a green LED and it is recognised as being in flash mode by Flashtool.
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] bkk99213:
Unlock/Relock bootloader need fastboot mode.

So, how can you relock bootloader and use Xperia™ Companion before？

If you can relock bootloader, that mean you can enter fastboot mode.
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] _zxzxzx_:
I originally unlocked the bootloader in fastboot, but that was when the phone was still functional.

I relocked the bootloader using Flashtool, while my phone was in flash mode.
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] bkk99213:
Relock using flashtool....

For flashtool, when you relock, you also need enter fastboot mode. So, I think, your phone can enter fastboot mode.

Or ... Have you got the log when relock using flashtool?

Maybe relock is unsuccessful.
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] bkk99213:
Bootloader status : NOT_ROOTABLE???

By Google, it say NOT_ROOTABLE cannot get unlock code :confused:

Any I got mistake, I also can unlock by flashmode.
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] _zxzxzx_:
It seems this might actually be a hard brick, or close to one. It doesn't appear to be recognised by Emma, the official Sony flash tool. And it seems to come up as some sort of "SOMC Flash Device" for drivers. The s1tool and test point emergency flash for older Xperia devices would be incredibly helpful now, but it doesn't seem to support any of the newer Xperia devices. Is there anything similar for the 2016 line to recover from a hard brick?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Ishu.Sharma:

I believe this app just looks at the MAC Address OUI of your wifi interface - which is not an accurate way of determining if your phone is potentially vulnerable to Broadpwn
[Android Apps and Games] PhantasmRezound:
WARNING TO ALL

Bogus results, do not trust this app at the time of this post! States my WiFi chip in my LG G5 is "made by LG Electronics" and I'm safe from BroadPwn. However, a physical teardown (https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/LG+G5+Teardown/61205) clearly shows the motherboard using a vulnerable Broadcom BCM43xx series chip, namely Broadcom BCM43455.

LG's own Security Bulletin page also has not listed BroadPwn's code CVE-2017-9417 yet, so it is still not patched by the manufacturer and thus is vulnerable. (https://lgsecurity.lge.com/security_updates.html)

The information this app is pulling from the system is inaccurate. MAC Addresses tell you the manufacturer of the entire device, NOT the specific WiFi chip on the motherboard itself. Otherwise Samsungs and LGs and Apples would *all* be listed as "Broadcom" in router logs...

Many here actually have Broadcom chips and are now duped into a false sense of security as a result of this app. This needs to be removed from here and the XDA Portal ASAP before more are fooled. Users, please remain skeptical and investigate your hardware more closely than just this one app.
[Android Apps and Games] LLStarks:
Please update the app to detect BCM4361 in S8/S8+. It should not be looking at the Murata packaging.
[Android Apps and Games] SARG04:
The app uses the wifi mac address and runs it again a mac address database.

That is not a working solution to detect the wifi chip in a smartphone.

The OnePlus 3 uses a Qualcomm QCA6174 chip. But it is detected as "OnePlus Tech (Shenzhen)Ltd" because they use their own mac address like nearly every smartphone vendor

It would be better to use other hardware IDs e.g. the one you get via lspci.

If you are not checking the patch level the Nexus 6 should be listed as vulnerable as it is listed in the original article.
[Android Apps and Games] vndnguyen:
Nope, the above quoted clause is not correct.

My Galaxy Note 4 comes with the WiFi MAC address 90:B6:86:1A:74:FE and it's from Murata Manufacturing Co. (a manufacturer from Japan), not from Samsung itself.
[Android Apps and Games] alukarulz:
OnePlus 5 safe.
[Android Apps and Games] PhantasmRezound:
Let me clarify by revising that statement to be "MAC Address will tell you the network components' vendor (may or may not match manufacturer of the rest of the device), but NOT the specific chips used as part of the networking circuits."

That's why BroadPwn is a very scary exploit, the Broadcom 43xx chips are used as part of many different networking packages and rebrandings from vendors other than Broadcom itself. This chip family is so common it affects billions of mobile devices.

**Your rebuttal precisely shows yourself to be at risk.**

Murata Manufacturing Co. is sourced on many Smasung devices to provide networking components, but they source specific chips from others. If you look at their products pages you will find they list the specific chipsets used, many of which are Cypress brand chips. e.g. http://wireless.murata.com/eng/products/rf-modules-1/wi-fi-bluetooth.html

Cypress acquired Broadcom; all CYW43xx chips are direct renames of BCM43xx chips mentioned at the heart of the BroadPwn exploit. http://www.cypress.com/documentatio...wifi-ieee-80211ac-macbasebandradio-integrated (PDF link on that page explains the renaming of the chip series.)

To summarize: Samsung often uses Murata packages, which include Cypress, which includes Broadcom. In the case of your Galaxy Note 4, it has a BCM4358 chip in it.

http://www.anandtech.com/show/8613/the-samsung-galaxy-note-4-review/9

BCM4358 is specifically listed as a known vulnerable target of the BroadPwn exploit. It will be discussed in detail at Black Hat USA 2017.

https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2017-9417

https://www.blackhat.com/us-17/brie...os-via-a-bug-in-broadcoms-wi-fi-chipsets-7603

If I may ask the exact method of your app, is it simply looking up the MAC Address against a vendor database? If so,1) Vendors not named Broadcom that use BCM43XX chips as a piece of their packages will erroneously show as OK, and 2) Broadcom's own networking products not including chips from the BCM43XX family may falsely be reported as vulnerable.

All of this said, please reconsider keeping your app published as it is; either take it down or revise the code ASAP. To reiterate it is dangerous to erroneously tell other device owners they are safe based on MAC Address info alone, just because it returns a vendor value other than "Broadcom". A vulnerable BCM43xx chip likely still lurks underneath the other names.
[Android Apps and Games] vndnguyen:
OK thank you all for your clarifications.

To avoid misunderstanding, I have removed the "BroadPwn check".

The app now only shows WiFi MAC vendor from the WiFi MAC address.

It does not check for the BroadPwn issue anymore.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
[Huawei Watch 2] Sean09:
I ordered the below from Amazon:

https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B0733B1HB1/ref=pe_3034960_233709270_TE_item

Xuexy 20mm Full Ceramic Watch Band Stainless Steel Buckle for Samsung Gear S2 Classic (SM-R7320/SM-R735) Moto 360 2nd Gen 42mm 2015 Pebble Time Round,Black

Shipping was quick as it always is with Amazon. The black ceramic watch band (20mm) fit my Huawei Watch 2 (not classic) quite well, and made a nice improvement to the sport band it came with. The tools made changing the band and removing a link easy as well. Took about 10 minutes to do everything. I think it makes the watch look great, and I am very happy for the price.

Seems to be the same band they have on Ebay for slightly less, but I did not want to wait 2 months for it.

I do not have any complaints as of yet, and would make the purchase again.

Thought I would post this so people are aware 20mm bands work with the watch, and could see how it looks with this watch.

The watch face is thema's Swift Watch Face - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fr.thema.wear.watch.swift&hl=en
[Huawei Watch 2] hasn4179:
My main concern with this watch is that the arms/grips/*whatever you want to call that area where band clip goes* is just too big for 3rd party bands to seamlessly integrate with the watch. I bought a leather strap, but the size of the watch itself is soo huge that the strap looked like a teensy thread compared to the watch. if you notice, the factory fitted strap actually has 'side flaps' type design near the clip area increasing the strap width, which at least gives a smooth look to the watch overall in terms of size..
[Huawei Watch 2] Sean09:
That is what I noticed with the Milanese Loop Band I tried - far too small for the watch and it looked silly. The ceramic one is a lot thicker and nicer, and looks great in my opinion. I just found the original to look a little cheap.
[Huawei Watch 2] hasn4179:
I personally don't prefer the ceramic/metal straps since I sometimes have to adjust the strap on the go, which of course is not possible with these types of straps

I really want Huawei to release some straps for its watches...
[Huawei Watch 2] rickneworleansla:
It looks shiney in the photos. I'd prefer something in flat black to match the watch body. If any one finds one similar in flat black please post.

Those guides are usually just copy & paste of previous guides with updated version names and numbers. I wouldn't trust those sites, that's what we have XDA for, and if you look at the Question and Answers section you will find numerous threads of people having softbricked their device because of trying to root the AQG5 firmware. :) Custom firmware is the way to go right now and there are plenty of working rooted AQG5 custom roms here on XDA.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Fille84:
Anyway, you can't root with magisk on AQG5.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sjant:
That's true you can't get Magisk by doing the CF auto root. But if you use a custom rom then you can have AQG5 and Magisk, you just have to stay on the AQF7 bootloader.

If you use the regular update you need to flash the AQF7 bootloader - boot into TWRP - flash the TWRP update - flash AQG5 bootloader with Odin. Then you are free to flash Magisk or SuperSU.

Why and how would you remove the battery on a G955F? I like to root and just keep it as stock as possible but this method does not work.
