lol. You are truly a newb. Don't worry I was there at one time. 2 days later after reading my arse off I flashed my first ROM. Since then I've done 5 tilts. I flashed Schaps 4.31. I'll break it down for you

Chef is the person who make the ROM.

Look through the thread you'll see different ROMs and screenshots.

You have full ROMs-ROMs with added goodies like programs and tweaks

Light ROMs-These ROMs are made to free up device memory

Ultralight ROMs-Everything is stripped. Like stripping a car and you starting all over again to put it back together the way you would like.

Radios enable you to hear sound, make receive phone calls etc.

What sometimes happens is that you flash a ROM to your phone and you get no sound. Reason: Radio is not compatible for the ROM you just installed on your phone. Answer: Flash a compatible ROM.

Hope this breaks the ice.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] phan10m:
Thank you very much. My first "flash" i guess u could say was flashing the HTC Home Today Screen and got rid of the at&t bloatware other than that i have not gone farther than that besides little .cabs here and there. So a rom such as duttys dual touch v4 is a "FULL" rom ...

[Huawei Mediapad M3 Questions & Answers] ChinnyxD:
Hi XDA peeps,

I have recently brought a Huawei Mediapad M3 and i love it, but i would like to downgrade it so I can root it afterwards. Why downgrade? Because the on the official website where you're supposed to unlock the bootloader. You need to select whether the tablet is EMUI4/4.1 or EMUI 5. Because I have Nougat I do have EMUI 5, I need to select EMUI 5 on the website. However I can't set the category on "tablet", only "smartphone". It will ask for a IMEI/MEID number, which I dont have... You can select "tablet" only if I had EMUI4/4.1..

pic2: (replace https here ) puu.sh/xgE2j/01998bb7ed.png

I was wondering if its possible to downgrade the M3(CN) to marshmellow. I saw there where tools available to downgrade for the US(Sorry, no US, my bad) and Eu version, but not for the chinese version. Does anyone know how to downgrade the M3? Or maybe a other way to unlock the bootloader, so i can install TWRP? I'd like to install a different rom.

Any other suggestions are welcome too!
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Questions & Answers] ncguy68:
I'm looking to downgrade the US version. Could you share where you found the tools to downgrade the US version? I've only been able to find rollback for the EU version.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Questions & Answers] ChinnyxD:
I'd swear i'd found a roll back for US, but it seems it doesn't exist. Otherwise you'd be able to download it from the official Huawei website. Sorry man.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Questions & Answers] arowana88:
You need to install Huawei tablet software (can't remember the name) on your pc and in there it will give you an option to rollback. That's what I had to do, to downgrade.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Questions & Answers] ChinnyxD:
You are the man! I installed HiSuite and it gave me the option to upgrade the firmware OR to downgrade to version Android 6.0 with EMUI 4.1.3(Chinese version). I've successfully got the unlock bootloader code from the huawei site. Going to install TWRP soon.. Thanks again!

*If you follow these instructions, do so at your own risk. I had success with it, I am not responsible for anything that might happen*

At this point, I could retrieve bootloader code from the huawei website and unlocked the tablet with these instructions: http://www.stechguide.com/unlock-bootloader-of-huawei-devices/

Used "Firmware finder rewrite" to find the correct firmware. My case i wanted to flash to C100(EU): https://puu.sh/yjdFb/a295fb3207.png

Uploaded the zip files to the SD card, rebooted the tablet in TWRP(complete shutdown tablet, no cable connected, hold up and power button till screen turns on).

install update.zip then put the other zip in the queue. Install and reboot, enjoy.

It does not look like it comes with google play, browser or any bloatware(it dint work).

Since I now have EMUI 5, i needed to download twrp specially for emui 5.

Had some problems with not being able to open google play or gmail. I reinstalled the rom with this one: http://www.stechguide.com/huawei-mediapad-m3-b303-nougat-firmware/, cleared dalvik cache and set timezone in TWRP. After flashing the rom, did a factory reset. Now google play services work! Happy days
[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aqkhan299:
phone model is sm-g531h. Phone is powered off cant do anything with it. It doesn't power on nor can enter into recovery. but when i connect it to charger it starts showing battery icon and then disappearing battery icon. its like in a charging loop. Then connected with the charger when i Press volume up+home+power it goes into recovery. By factory resetting or wiping cache and rebooting it shows samsung logo and sometimes it goes further to setup but then it continues blinking that battery logo on and off.

Then charging port is clean there is no problem there. Should flashing the firmware would solve the problem or there is other issue like in the motherboard or something else. please guide me.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] bhudson:
Hi,

TagTime is a polling time tracker, which is awesome except it doesn't play well with Doze (old) and also means the phone doesn't get to sleep for very long. It would be great if it worked on Android Wear because then I could leave my phone alone and not kill the battery life, so I'm thinking of getting a Zenwatch 2 (unless I find something that's better value perhaps)

Would anyone be willing to test if it works with Zenwatch 2? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=bsoule.tagtime&hl=en - it'd be much appreciated. I really have no other use case for the watch that I can think of at the moment so it's important :P

TIA!
[Asus ZenWatch 2] dersie:
It is an Android App and not an app for other OS like Wear, so it can not be installed on a wear watch. You can try with an Android OS watch, there are many many .... model on Chinese market ;)
[Asus ZenWatch 2] bhudson:
My understanding is non-wear apps can be loaded through adb, no?
[Asus ZenWatch 2] emuandco:
Sure they can. Load the apk as arm or universal platform version from apkmirror.com or apkpure.com (https://apkpure.com/tagtime/bsoule.tagtime) and use adb install xxx.apk on your pc and try it then.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] dersie:
it can, but no mean that it works ;)
[Asus ZenWatch 2] bhudson:
Right, that's why I asked if someone would be willing to test it before I bought the watch... It would be my main use for it.

it's called brightness protection under Settings -> display

I want to enable it when the sun goes down and disable it when it's morning., like how similar night mode apps work (cf.lumen, lux etc)

currently I tend to forget disabling the option so the screen stays reddish.

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] pandrewd89:
Hi. I've been noticing that sometimes my brand new 2 day old Pixel phone shows black app previews on the recent apps list as shown in the photo.

Odd that it only happens intermittently then fixes itself.

Also when I take screenshots, it just takes the screenshot as a blank image, despite what app I take a screenshot in.

Had to take the image using the tablet camera.

Anyone else have the same thing happen? And what causes it? Or how can I stop it?

Somewhat annoying and inconsistent. RAM cleaning apps don't appear to fix it either. Just fixes itself automatically.

Other than that there isn't any issues with the device and it doesn't appear to be hardware related.

[Elephone P9000 Questions & Answers] farsiray:
Okay this sounds dodgy… but ever since I’ve been using P9000, contacts that have been in my account (some even for years) disappear! I notice this when someone I know calls but his name is not shown, or when I browse between older messages in SMS app or WhatsApp, I notice the contact details have disappeared! As you can understand this is very annoying … recently I had a hard time to find back the number for my car mechanic, as his contact details were erased.:confused:

In attempt to fix this. I’ve installed the Google Contacts app, and disabled the Elephone Contacts app. This did not fix it.:confused:

I was hoping that the update to Android Nougat would maybe fix this. It did not! After flashing Nougat first things I noticed was that some essential contact details had disappeared!:confused:

I have not had this issue on any device before. It started occurring ever since I start using the P9000. So the question is…. Has anybody else noticed this issue? Why is this happening? Is Elephone doing naughty things in the background with my contacts??? Is there anything to do about?:eek:

[Huawei MediaPad X2] Djiban:
Huawei updater is a windows program to install Huawei rom, as found in the official rom database here. (like Huawei firmware finder in fact, but here is an alternative). Warning huawei updater could be use only with "full OTA" and not '"incremental OTA" (written in the database as "OTA")

It has been developed for Huawei P9 and P9 plus by [MENTION=6165066]hajuuk[/MENTION], but the version 2.0 enables custom rom installation, and it makes it usable on other devices, as long as you highly take care of choosing a correct rom for your device (WARNING!!).

On this page (install method 2), it is recommanded to be used with mediapad X2 ! You just need: Hisuite on your windows OS, exact name of the ROM, and exact url has found on the above database. Here with full rom B205.

For another example with the update only file (so to apply on already android 6 702L ROMs) B202 from march 2017 (GPS and push fixed in this rom! but Xposed non working): name "GEM-702LC158B202", and url:

http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G733/g490/v78383/f1/

).
[Huawei MediaPad X2] E--Man:
Hi Djiban, thanks for posting this here. The GPS and Push issues being fixed in the GEM-702L B205 stock ROM might be worth going through a reinstall. Just a couple of quick questions:

* Are you sure that the GEM-702L B205 Stock ROM does not have the GPS and Push issues?

* Has anyone tried a Factory Reset while having GEM-703L B212 installed to see if it fixes these issues? One user reported that they were able to overcome these issues after doing a Factory Reset with B212

* Regarding installing of the GEM-702L stock B205, if I currently have GEM-703L stock B212 installed, what is the *simplest* way for me to install GEM-702L B205? Can I simply flash it using "Installation method 1" in that thread by placing it in my SD Card under the "DLoad" directory and flashing?

* Last question, do you think that Huawei will update this device anymore to a newer update in the near future?

Moderator Edit:

Please avoid making mentions - particularly so many. We get more complaints about these than anything else.

These have been deleted.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] Djiban:
I'll make a more complege answer later, but please note that this is the march 4th 2017 B202 that solve the gps ans pish notification issues, NOT the B205!
[Huawei MediaPad X2] E--Man:
Thanks Djiban for clearing that up. The only question I forgot to ask is what does this B202 have that the B212 (latest for GEM-703L) does not? Are there known bugs in B202 that were fixed in B212?

Thanks again and sorry for all these questions!

With this app at least it downloads.

When trying to use the official huwaei app from the other thread, I do all the steps, entering the changelog and clicking set then Register then entering the DNS ip or in the HiSuite app but either way it tells me that I am using the latest version (KANGPIN 212).

Carrier: Alltel

Started with WM5 ROM.

Flashed to DCD's 2.1 WM6 ROM last week, no issues noted.

Yesterday flashed to 2.2 WM6.1 ROM and now whenever I get a data session going in a strong EVDO area I get dropped down to 1x when the data session finishes connecting?

I've moved back to 2.1, used no2chems 6.1 ROM and back to DCD's 6.1 ROM. Same problem all around now.

Radio problem maybe? Or user? If radio, anyone get me a link to the original 1.4?

Thanks in advance if anyone has any tips, I've tried looking around but only find people with MMS or other issues.

---------------------

This solution apparently only works for Alltel customers, if anyone finds solutions for Sprint/Verizon/Telus I'll add the solution to this post.

ALLTEL:

1. Enter EPST (##778), Edit (password= 000000).

2. View Info (left soft key).

3. Choose the "Security" item.

4. In the "HDR AN AUTH Password(LONG)" field, click to highlight.

5. Menu (right soft key), Edit

6. In the "Value" field, enter your Hex ESN (make sure all characters are CAPITAL, lowercase will FAIL).

7. Ok. Menu. Ok to save, then reset.

--------------------------------------------

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Americanmetal:
I think with Alltel you get 1x when roaming. Do *228 option 3 < Thats to activate your phone if you haven't already

Then do *228 option 2 to update your roaming preferences which ridded me of roaming in coverage area!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] jake1s:
Thanks for the response, I've been through that already and same results... :(

I even went back to the stock Alltel ROM and Radio, same thing.

With the newest Advanced Config app, you can unhide the "mode of operation" option in there. I got it from here somewhere, do a search. I doubt this is your issue.

Immediately it worked like a champ.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] corwinb:
I had this problem also and was able to take care of it by going into EPST (##778) and going under the security settings and putting the ESN Hex Value of Your Phone under the HDR Password. Mine got lost whenever I upgraded the radio. This will allow you to lock back onto the EVDO network

What did you guys have in that slot before you added your esn hex number?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] excess4:

i also had the weird characters, i edited these out with my esn hex as mentioned and now i cant get a data connection at all, i get an error that i cannot connect. Anyone with any idea on what i can do?

I thought of downgrading the radio and then installing this one again and starting from scratch any better ideas?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] JimSmith94:
My HDR password is also extended ASCII characters, has been for every ROM version I have run, and I get EVDO and on the Internet as well. I thought that was a problem when I had no data connection from a previous ROM, but it wasn't.

What worked for me was to go all the way back to the official 2.17, then to the leaked 3.16, etc. I made sure everything was set up and working properly on each version before moving on to another ROM.

and i understand some people now get ev but no data connection now. i am on verizon and i dont know if that will happen to me as well.

also my a-key is blank if that makes a difference. phone works fine though.

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] stevenewjersey:
I had the same problem with not being able to connect to evdo after about a week on the new rom. I ended up calling advanced tech support for Sprint. They told me that I had an older plan before evdo. I have every feature you can get including phone as modem for 12$ a month because I tried to turn off the service and they cut me a deal to keep me on board.

The tech explained to me that there are alot of people who dont have the evdo flag on the account they have. He knew I had rev A but didnt care he was pretty cool. He explained that alot of people are using the new radio and setting off alarms on Sprints side. Once the alarms go off you are kicked from the network. He told me flashing the radio might fix it temp but it would come back soon. In the end they just added the evdo to my account and flagged me for the network. Now I get flawless data and all of my download problems are fixed.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] frostiex:
Use this to get you MSL password.

Make sure you run it on your PPC and then enter your HEX ESN in capitals and you will get your password. no need to call provider ;)

Update: I tried changing my HDR password to my ESN in HEX...but it seem to permanently force my connection as 1X.

Changed back and have EVDO again. But it seems odd how it does randomly change to 1X in a EVDO area. (I am with Telus BTW)
