Its great people are cooking these roms and sharing them.

But, I just want a plain and simple official rom and install couple of progs I use myself..
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] dannyoneill:
Try the vanilla rom, its as close to official as you can get. I love official roms, there clean and stable but meschels vanilla rom is just as good. He doesnt mess, doesnt force his own tweaks on you, lets you do it.

Ive tried the B&B v5 rom but its over loaded with customizations and it runs way slow, compared to the official T-MObile wm6 rom. Vanilla is hella fast. Very smooth and optimized.
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] hate03:
hi danny,

my mdacompact3 freeze too many times with the official T-MObile wm6 rom!!!

don't understand why!!!!!:mad:
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] ark666:
I agree 100%

ARTEMIS VANILLA 4.01 WWE ROM - WM6.1 Final 5.2.19199 (SDHC)

For me this one is better than the any official rom.

Cheers.
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] Juice05:
The vanilla rom is also only realeased when it properly works!
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] madcow_x2:
Try Atermis Vanila Rom

It is plain and fast.
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] Longhair:
I wouldn't hold my breath waiting on an offical HTC WM6.1 update considering how long it took them to release WM6.
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] Juice05:
I'd guess that might have been down to SDHC licensing issues
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] kakainis:
AFAIK HTC have not released rom with sdhc support or have they?

So any rom they release are inferior to Marks new Vanilla rom.

Hello!

For quite a while I've been having the PRA-LX1C432B106 with no OS. I have been searching the XDA forums for possible solutions and have tried Sir ChinHon's unbricking tutorial and many others. Unfortunately, my System partition is only 1921MB, which means I cannot restore that partition with the available ones, as I receive Error: 255 (extractTarFork() process ended with ERROR: 255 whenever the restored size gets close to the maximum size of my partition).

If anyone could help me with this, it would be so much appreciated!

UPDATE: Solved by using K-Rom!
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] hamzio7:
answer this few questions:

is your bootloader unlocked?

is your frp unlocked?

can you access recovery?

did you wipe the vendor and cust partitions?

do you have the update.app for your device?
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] Al-Jalodi:
brother i was faced that error and i solve it check this link https://xdaforums.com/p8lite/p8-lite-2017-discussion/error-255-t3654981
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] theholycutu:
My bootloader is unlocked, frp unlocked, I can access recovery, I restored vendor and cust partitions using some twrp restores and I know that with the vendor partition i had an error which was solved by changing the file system to EXT4 and i think it was wiped and no, i can't find the update.app on the firmware finder or for that matter on the internet.

I saw and read your thread and tried to do what you said but I am still facing the same error :(
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] Al-Jalodi:
brother , did you wipe data ? so wipe data then do like i mentioned before
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] theholycutu:
I wiped data, unmounted, mounted, tried to restore backup and I still have that error. And I think it's because I do not have enough space on the System partition, I don't think it has anything to do with the data partition. Thanks a lot for the suggestion, though :D
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] Al-Jalodi:
so do factory rest then redo the steps because i do factory rest from TWRP (that option ask you to type yes ) so try it bro and tell me

Good luck
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] theholycutu:
Thank you, but still no progress.. I still get that error 255 when trying to restore :(

which backup you trying to restore ? the old backup or b170 backup ?

I tried that backup..and it's actually so close, but still not working. The system restore has 2083 MB while my system partition has 1921MB..
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] Al-Jalodi:
sorry brother i do not understand what do you mean , so you mean you are confused because system size partition ?

maybe it's have nano Gapps or micro Gapps and few stock app like HiCare , tripadvisor ,....etc
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] theholycutu:
Okay, let me explain better. When I go in TWRP into Wipe and Advanced Options and I check the System Partition, it shows me that i have 1921MB Total. I tried to restore that backup and it gave me the error. Went to restore only the system partition and I saw it had over 2000MB. And that is the cause of the error. I would need a backup with less. I don't know why my System Partition is so small and I can't resize it or something.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] veromax:
First make a factoryreset in the stock recovery. Then in TWRP wipe data and system and restore the rescue rom. Or take the K-Rom V.3.1.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] theholycutu:
Did everything but using the ROM. Waiting for the release of the updated download :D

[LG G6 Questions and Answers] dkimmortal:
Hello

I had a question about the HiFi Dac.

My M50X is low impedance (30s) so it only activates "Normal audio device" when i enable HiFi Audio

but, if i disconnect the cable from my headphone and only plug the cable into the phone, it turns on "External Audio Device" setting of the HiFi Dac instead of saying "normal audio device" and is definitely louder!

Is there any difference between this external audio device (aux) mode and High Impedance mode?

I upgraded from a P9 Lite to a P10 Lite, but cannot seem to be able to open the Hidden Apps page in the launcher. I do not have the app drawer, as I prefer not to use it.

I had the option on EMUI 5.0, so has the Hidden Apps been removed on EMUI 5.1, or am I just missing an option to enable it somewhere? :confused:

Thanks in advance! :)
[Huawei P10 Lite Questions & Answers] ari173:
Go to Telefone manager and choose app lock. You can protect apps with another pin, but can not hide. Use apps from play Store for this feature
[Huawei P10 Lite Questions & Answers] miz_pimp:
Thank you for your reply, although I would prefer not using a third party app, since this was a stock EMUI launcher feature, even in EMUI 5.0.

Using app lock still doesn't hide the apps from the launcher, but just puts a pin lock on it. I only hide the unnecessary app icons that I do not use, or can't disable (SIM Toolkit, Flashlight, Settings, etc), to keep my homescreen clean. I'm just really disappointed that it was removed. [emoji20]

[Sony Xperia XA Ultra Guides, News, & Discussion] rrvuhpg:
Hi all,

Today I will explain you how to unbrick your dead phone, now that I have a XA Ultra for dev and test I tried to kill it (yes I'm crazy).

until now I didn't searched all ways because my XA was my daily phone and when I asked the community to send or sell me a dead phone, no answers :mad:

I tried many ways to brick and unbrick the phone, tried to brick it by not using FSC file, using an old Falshtool, flashing boot.img from an other device (Xperia X and Z5 :D) and I always recovered it. In my last try the phone was totally dead, no red light and not detected by my computer but all ended fine :good: I will upload a video soon.

On Mediatek devices, if the preloader is not corrupted you can always recover it. If it doesn't work for you maybe you can use some "special" boxes to connect on the UART serial port and flash the preloader but I didn't find the correct pinout on it and no proofs what will work on XA and Ultra.

Other thing, if someone claim that he found an other way and need your phone (and money), don't trust it until you have some real proofs (some users know what I mean), it's probably a scam to steal your phone.

By following this guide you will void the warranty so do it only if you can't send it to Sony!!

## What we need ?

- Some tools to open the device (a plastic card can be enough)

- The last version of Flashtool

- Flashmode drivers installed (you can install them from Flashtool)

- A firmware downloaded from Xperifirm (inclued in Flashtool)

- One set of sticker glue tape for the backplate like this one:

https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.co...4ff8978f9e--waterproof-stickers-glue-tape.jpg

## Step by step guide

1. Follow this video to remove the backplate (thanks to the author): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2O5dAljOpR4

2. Unplug the battery connector, pull it from the upper side very slowly or you can damage it.

3. Open Flashtool and load the firmware (remove all TA related partitions), click "flash" and wait until you see the popup to plug the phone.

4. Hold "vol-" and plug the phone, you will see the red light 1 seconde and the green light just after.

5. Release "vol-" button and wait until the end of the flash process.

6. Unplug the phone, plug the battery connector and power on the phone.

7. If it's ok the phone will start and you can put the backplate again (clean the old glue and put the new sticker)

## How to avoid brick

First of all you must understand that flashing something on our devices is always dangerous, official or unofficial things.

Generally our devices goes wrong after updating the firmware, to reduce the risk you have to follow some simple things:

- Don't unlock the bootloader and use OEM tools.

- Always download files from trusted sources.

- When you use Flashtool, always use the last version, download the firmware from the inclued Xperifirm and always use FSC file when asked.

If it worked for you, don't forget to feedback, hit the thank button and why not offer me a coffee :p

Have a nice day

[LeEco Le Max 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] kkcheong:
Unless you move around too much, I don't think they fall out too much. It's surprisingly comfortable.

Maybe you use it for sport and you kinda harsh towards it. :D
[LeEco Le Max 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] kanagawaben:
LOL me, sports... nah. I didn't treat them badly at all. Didn't even use them that much. Think the falling out thing just depends on the size and shape of your ear holes. They didn't suit my ears I guess, and they are just hard, smooth plastic with no rubber part for an added friction seal so unless they are a good fit they fall out. The cables are just plain thin, and weak at both ends (near the buds and near the usb jack).

Think LeEco's quality is (was, RIP zombieco LeEco) hit and miss for sure. My first headphone adapter suffered cable failure too, but the second one I got has been fine. My USB charging brick died, but the USB C Cable that came with it is still perfect.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] kkcheong:
You're right. I guess there's no QC.

My cable is dead also.

For the headphone, if there rubber, probably it will hurt. I guess my ear hole is smaller. Lol

Hello,

I have received my z Play a week ago, applied last 7.1.1 OTA everything OK

Then i decided to start flash rom

First : i build Lineage for my own => fasboot boot twrp => Flash OK => boot lineage OK , nice

Second : i try Gzr Validus => fasboot boot twrp => wipe all / data and factory reset => flash OK

but impossible to start : it ask me a password , ok no problem but after : "Decrypt unsuccessful. The password you entered is correct, but unfortunately your data is corrupt. To resume using your phone, you need to perform a factory reset"

ok.... i have already done a factory reset but i re boot in twrp and re factory reset, same problem

I rewipe everything, reflash, same problem

i have tried to format Data and cache partition using ext4 instead f2fs, same problem

retry with lineage , same problem

it's like my data partition was still encrypted or like it was still corrupted even after a factory reset

i would prefer avoid to flash/downgrade stock as i have read lot of people are bricked

I have to say sometimes Twrp fail to wipe and is stuck, i have to force shut down and retry.

any suggestions are welcome :confused:

Rooted / ish

Hey,

I have not found a root method but iv found a way to access all sysytem files and folders.

Go to app store and download ROOT BROWSER by JRummy Apps.

Open the app once installed and it will ask you to download files to make it work, it downloads quickly from inside the app.

When its finished you can then access the phones root files as tho your phone was rooted.

Its better than nothing for now and im sure there would be a way to insert the nesscerry files for rooting into the correct folders.

Hope it works for you :)
