[Xperia Z3 General] mu-sensei:
I have faced an odd issue: I bought a new Z3, and it came with MM. Except, well, my favorite mods (from a Z3C) were all geared towards Lollipop. Easy enough right? It's just, y'know, a downgrade away! So I did just that. Downgraded all the way back to KK, Rooted, backed up my TA/DRM's, Put a recovery and downloaded .264, Making myself a PreRooted.

It installed just fine, and everything went well... Until I left it overnight to charge. And got it with 60% charge on the other day. :confused:

Well, after that, I tried just about everything one could think of: .232, Custom Kernels, Custom Roms, Mods, EVERY ******* THING. I even got it under the Sleep of Death (and Back, thanks Rubber Bands!) once! It only charged above 60% in Marshmallow, When Powered Down, or With an AOSP Rom. It was maddening!

...This issue lasted for... (checks proof of purchase...) exactly four weeks, where I flashed something or another, went to work, and tried to charge it either at lunch or coffee breaks, to no effect.

Turns out it was really simple: Retail Demo. Before deleting it, make sure to disable it by dialing *#*#SELLMORE#*#*. Otherwise it locks maximum charge at 60% to protect the battery. Smart, for a Retail device, except... Well, I bought it fully sealed.

I'm just leaving this here in case anyone is facing the same issue. G'night (or day, afternoon, evening... whatever) Guys. Now to debloat, mod and customize and finally get to use my phone how I want it!:D
[OnePlus 3T Guides, News, & Discussion] DLeach4512:
Hi all!

I'm creating this post to both share my experience with, and ask for help with, my terrible OnePlus experience.

You can see the details, timeline, and so on in my often-updated google doc, here

The gist of the story is that I ordered a OnePlus 3T on April 30th, got it May 4th, found it was defective, sent it back on May 12th (it took that long to work out the return details!) and i'm still waiting for both refunds (one for the device itself, and the other for the return shipping I was promised a refund for).

If you're thinking of buying a OnePlus device, I would encourage you not to because their customer service is terrible (don't take my word, just google it). They don't have a US base (that i've found) so there's little recourse in the US.

If you have any information that could help me resolve this issue by getting my money back from them, i'd love to hear about them!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yasirjamal:
Hi Everyone,

Well I have an OBI SJ-1-5 SmartPhone which is not working now as I was trying to Flash a Stock ROM via SP Flash Tool.

I was trying to unlock the bootloader via "fastboot oem unlock" command in fastboot mode. The result was "ok". This device also has "allow bootloader to be unlocked" feature in developer options which was set to "on" while I was doing it. During the process of unlocking it shows some warning message that whole device would be reset, I agree and continue. After which it got stuck and I've to use "fastboot reboot" command, which result in continuous boot loop. Then i was not able to go into recovery or do anything.

I then do some google fu and found Stock ROM which aren't compatible to the device as it was showing the error "PMT has changed for the ROM". Which i sort out somehow. In the mean time I forget to unchecked the "Preloader" option, and unfortunately the new Stock ROM* has incompatible preloader with my Device. Resulting in a Complete Brick of my SmartPhone giving me "BROM ERROR: S_FT_ENABLE_DRAM_FAIL (0xFC0)" error both while doing "Format whole Flash" and "Format whole flash except Bootloader", even "Download" option gives me the same error.

Fortunately I have another pair of same Model so I thought to Dump the Stock ROM including the preloader files and Update my brick cellphone with it. I know the procedure of "Readback", so to grab the "scatter" file I used "MTKdroidTools" which again unfortunately unable to create the "root shell" for my device neither I was able to save the scatter file(the save button was disabled) because my device is MediaTek 6580 which is unsupported to use with "MTKdroidTools". My other cellphone is not Rooted and Rooting is the whole reason I now have a Brick Cellphone so I am not gonna take risk again doing something with that new device :).

Which leave me the last option of Using a Hardware Device like "Magic Box" or "Volcano Box" to DUMP firmware. And that I don't have and neither I can somehow get my hands onto it.

But I "think" I can get my cellphone back to life if I would find a ROM of a device with Similar board id and Flash its ROM using (Format+Download). After that it would allow me to use "Auto Format except Bootloader". After which I could flash the ROM that was giving me (0xFC0) error (without ticking the preloader).:o

Details of SJ1-5

Chipset: MediaTek 6580

Root : No

Build Number : Obi_SJ1-5_B1B8_Ver3.6

Kernal Version : 3.10.72

Android Version : 5.1

Android Security Patch Level : 2016-01-01

*The ROM I tried : Obi_SJ1.5_MT6580_5.1_v1.7.1_151014_144940

I hope someone can provide me the DUMPed Stock ROM from a working Device. I would really appreciate that. And please let me know if there is any other Method that I missed. Sorry for my bad English.

Thank you all in Advance.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daigtas:
Same problem here. As always with mtk phones it is problematic and very risky to find working/compatable scatter and rom. Same story, flashed wrong preloader and now the phone in boot loop. Thinking to connect directly to a serial but i need a correct rom for a start. If anyone has a dumb of this phone please contact me at Lukminas.a@gmail.com
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Binary Assault:
I am using Revan kernel R7Min. I've had this issue for a while and have checked around Google for a solution and nothing seems to work.

The issue is, no matter what settings I try to set for my kernel (such as my cpu governor, scheduler etc) when I reboot, they go back to default. Others on the same kernel are not having the same issue.

I am on stock OOS 4.5.6 but have always had this issue. I am using Magisk for root and do have greenify installed. I've ensured that any kernel modifying app is not greenified and is not battery optimized.

I've tried kernel auditor, kernel auditor mod, L speed, Room Tool box and ex kernel manager.

All produce the same problem. I've also uninstalled all mentioned apps and tested individually in the event they are conflicting with each other, no dice.

Anyone run into this before? My current workaround is to set everything, create a profile in one of the apps and restore post reboot.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Binary Assault:
Bump. Am I really the only person with this issue on a 1+5?
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] shadowstep:
Try turning off advanced optimisation: Settings -> Battery -> Battery optimisation -> Three dot menu (⋮) -> Advanced optimisation -> Turn off. Once done, reboot and check if whatever you've applied to run at boot is running at boot or not. It should. :)
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Binary Assault:
Thank you so much! That fixed it. I wonder if I'll lose some battery life.. that actually fixed a few problems I had. I bet the aggressive doze in greenify could correct any battery issues if I get them.

But thanks again! I've tried so much lol
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] shadowstep:
No worries, I had a feeling this was the reason. Coming to battery life, I haven't noticed any loss of battery life after disabling the option. I think what the option does is stop apps, that have the run-at-boot permission, to run at boot. But even if they don't run at boot and you open them at any point of the time, they'll be up and running, and then it's the same thing really, so.

Anyway, have fun! :good:

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] aryan01:
Hey guys, I'm thinking to root my s7 edge and I want to know the best rom with least possible bugs. my main concern is battery life. Please respond ASAP. and one more question. I want to get rid of WhatsApp which is a system app, anyway without root? if possible, please paste a link to the tutorial on how to do it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] pedro10192012:
Hi the best way to remove a System App is by using root. (http://kingroot.br.uptodown.com/android)

After you rooted it, is just going to play store and intall this app to remove de apps (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jumobile.manager.systemapp)

Anyway you can also follow this tutorial and remove them without rooting

(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aAe2kxUOhJA)

The best roms now to me are on XDA:

If you want just battery life expanded install one like Helios Or Ressurection

If you want more functions like a lot of customize options use one like Superman or Renovate And you will not lose that look of samsung on main interface

If you want to go further, install an s8 port or s8+ like batman or Sac23's Roms

Personally i use the sac23's rom v5

(https://xdaforums.com/s7-edge/development/rom-n7-rom-port-romcontrol-t3430358)

It give me a lot of s8 fuctions like Bixby and others, have a really good battery life and manegement and the way they convert the graphics and images like lookscreen clock is just amazing

Hope I have helped you ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] aryan01:
Yes, but......

it helps me with my roms question. but with my uninstalling the app question, i have already tried debloater. i have tried all possible ways. but was not able to succeed. :/
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] mashardpro:
1. As much as I know about your writing, you want root. So it's no big deal to remove the app system you want (with root). I usually use titanium backup for it.

2. If you still want without root, maybe this can be tried.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] jvidia:
Anyone has programmed a "Double tap action" on the HOME button ?

Don't you notice some "lag" when touching only one time the HOME button?

I know it has to wait to seek if a second tap is coming but I think it waits too much time!

Disabling "Double tap action" on the HOME button makes HOME button very fast as expected!
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] PULMONEZZ:
I also facing this issue :(
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] GTI86:
Yeah, I noticed this issue, too.

I've disabled the double tap action because of that.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] jauhari:
we decide didn't use it until this issue has been solved :)
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] MrWilsonxD:
It's because of the method double tap works. Everytime you press the home button, phone is waiting on second response. This same thing has happened on cyanogemod/lineage for as long as I can remember across all my devices...
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] jvidia:
On my previous 3T I did not noticed it!
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] MrWilsonxD:
I'm willing to bet it was there lol.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] jvidia:
Can't do the test ... sold it :D
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] cultofluna:
3t user here..

I can confirm exact the same behaviour if you set an action for double tap....home button is not so responsive on single tap .
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] fjsferreira:
That delay has to be there, it's by design.

If you assign a double tap action to any button, after the first tap, there's a delay that results from the system waiting for the second tap, if this second tap is recognized, it performs the assigned action, if not, it performs the regular single tap action.

It there wasn't that delay in there, every single double tap action would be immediately preceded by the single tap action, which would be very very much annoying.

For example, home button - single tap is return to home. If we assigned a double tap to, let's say, turn on the flashlight, without the delay, the process would go like this:

- You're inside an app and want to turn on the flashlight,

- Double tap the home button

- Because there's no delay, you would immediately be taken to the home screen (single tap action) and only then the flashlight would turn on (double tap action).

That's NOT how it should behave at all.

So, in conclusion, you either have to live with a short delay when assigning double tap actions to buttons or disable the double tap action and have no delay.

Note: this delay is present not only for double tap actions on the HOME button but also for the RECENTS and BACK button.

Note 2: this delay is present in EVERY single ROM that has this ability to assign double tap actions to physical buttons (not just OOS).

Personally, I just turn off the double tap action and use longpress instead, there's no delay that way.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] jvidia:
Double Tap Options all off!

Case closed.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] DSF:
But but why there is no delay when you press the multitasking button? :). That has also a default double tap for quick switch (alt tab) to previous app!

.. but as soon as you customize the double tap of this button you get a delay!
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] jvidia:
It must have something to do with the finger print scanner function on the home button too.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] DSF:
But the delay is present on all 3 capacitive buttons if you put a custom double tap action.. so i don't think it has anything to do with fingerprint sensor, more of a deliberately action of an increased timeout.

Well.. hope they will decrease the timeout or at least make it customizable
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] jvidia:
Do you notice it on the back button? I tested and it seems no different.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] DSF:
Yes i notice it on back button too. Just retested.

No double tap - instant. Custum double tap - delay
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] jvidia:
Yup! I also confirm know. ;)

I was using double tap on home / back to turn off the screen.

Just changed to long press.

No lag now and same objective done!
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Hastaloego:
isnt there a prob setting or so to adjust the delay ?

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] AngelOfBlood:
Try this !

Prepare ODIN with the files CL + BL.

This worked for me this way, my phone was like yours...

I Cannot turn phone off too.

There's a trick...

All the time you enter in Download mode, and hit Start in Odin, the Odin says "FAIL" and the phone automatic reboot.

The trick is..

When in "Download mode" Start and at the same time press and hold "Vol Down + Bixby + Power".

Odin says FAIL and it will restart the phone automatic.

Press faster and hold "Vol Down + Bixby + Power" to go again to "Download mode".

Press Start in Odin and be prepared to press and hold at the same time "Vol UP + Bixby + Power".

Odin will start to transfer the files... and after that the phone reboot again faster, just press and hold one more time and faster "Vol UP + Bixby + Power".

TWRP will start !

Hope it helps

[Nextbit Robin] Nivekc:
Following the instruction on Nextbit website to restore the Robin to factory but when I run ./flash-all.sh or sudo ./flash-all.sh or even su and then bash ./flash-all.sh, all I get in response is Permission denied on every line of the shell script that tries to flash a file. Anyone know what the deal is? I'm running Linux btw.
[Nextbit Robin] hairycheez:
I can't read sorry
[Nextbit Robin] Nivekc:
lol, no worries.

For anyone who cares, I found the solution. The script was written for Mac OS and all of the commands start with "./fastboot" instead of plain old "fastboot". This is because on a Mac you are running the fastboot program from your working directory, just like on Windows. I however did not know this as I am a Linux user and have never used android tools on any other platform. I actually rewrote the script to solve the issue basically removing the part that asked me if it was ok to wipe, all of the "./" and changed the last part to just flash the system.img since it was depending on the y or n variables I removed at the top. So if anyone else runs into this, that is how you fix it.

EDIT: If anyone needs the flash-all.sh script for Linux Message me and I'll send it to you.

[Touch Cruise ROM Development] BadTasteUK:
Hi there, first post for me, first day with my O2 XDA Orbit 2. Pardon my ignorance, I've always been a Nokia man, but the orbit 2 seems to be "O2'd" and different to the Touch Cruise I've seen in videos on the net.

I'm hoping this is the same as mobile operators do with Nokia's, and that you can just change the firmware to the standard one.

Having a read, I'm a bit confused between radio versions, rom versions, cooking, language files, reg editing, etc, and was hoping someone could answer the following... :confused:

1) Is there an easy way to make my orbit a standard Touch Cruise?

2) Are there any downsides, apart from warranty? i.e. Loss of functions?
