[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] jaannnis:
I don't fully understand your post, let's make something clear:

Flashing stockrom via Odin/KIES gives you the DRK Error after/while booting

You currently can not flash TWRP, as OEM Lock is on

You currently do not have TWRP because you flashed the stockrom

You do not have a Backup of your /efs partition

AFAIK things like the IMEI are stored in the EFS partition, and it really isn't a good idea to do anything with it unless you have a backup :p :p
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] chescu:
Hi jaannnis, thanks for your reply.

Yes, everything you say is correct.

Regarding the third point, I had TWRP, but I replaced it with the stock bootloader after the phone stopped booting with TWRP due to OEM being locked.

I thought I had a backup of my EFS partition, but it turned out to be corrupted somehow. But even if I had a valid backup of the EFS partition, how can I restore it with a locked bootloader?

Anyway, the IMEI is not an issue. Actually, after my EFS partition became corrupt, I was still able to use restore the IMEI using Combination ROM and then boot the stock ROM using no-verity-opt-encrypt and use the phone to connect to the network with the correct IMEI.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] chescu:
Solved!

OK, I managed to solve it!

I solved the steps in this post in a Spanish forum.

These are the steps for those who don't speak Spanish:

Install Combination ROM and check the IMEI is correct by typing *#06# in IME as explained in the XDA post by CuBz90 mentioned before.

Untar BL and AP from stock ROM and tar them again containing only cm.bin and sboot.bin in BL and boot.img and system.img in AP. This somehow allowed to boot the stock ROM bypassing the DRK error but with some parts missing like Recovery or Google Apps.

That's anyway enough to be able to enable "OEM unlock".

After unlocking OEM, I was able to flash a full stock ROM and TWRP.

Apply no-verity-opt-encrypt from TWRP as explained in the XDA post mentioned before
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] greeceeeee:
is it easy for you to upload BL and AP which you created because I don't know how to create them as you write.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] chescu:
I think you should usually use a stock rom specific to your phone because of the modem drivers and all that stuff, but for this purpose any version may work since you don't actually need to make phone calls and it's only for unlocking the OEM.

If you use Windows, you can use 7-zip to untar the AP and BL files included in the stock rom and tar new ones with the files I mentioned.

I did this almost five months ago and I no longer have the AP and BL files I used, but I still have a copy of the stock rom for my phone (G930FXXS1DQHM_G930FOJV1DQEB_XSG).

I will try to pack the special AP and BL files again and upload them, but it can take ages with my upload speed. It won't probably finish before tomorrow.

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Yough:
Hi my axon is always on LTE but a very bad LTE I cannot even call and all of this because I use 4g switcher app and select cellular 800 in "choose radio band" the only other choice on the app is USA band and it's doesn't work so please how to restore this parameter?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] jaycool3869:
Hi , I'm in Europe , did the same , found a solution for me

Hi , I did the same mistake but through the service menu 4636 . As a result , no more cellphone network . First, my Axon 7 is a "G" for the european market and is not rooted , no twrp , I only did the update (nougat 7.1.1) provided in the german website .

I tried a lot of things ( another simcard , second slot , factory reset ) the only solutions found in forums were for rooted and modified devices . ZTE support didn't respond to my answers .

So , I rolled back in marshmallow 6.0.1 without the simcard installed . In order to do that , I took the B10 update from the german ZTE website ( It downgrade the axon 7 from nougat 7.1.1 to marshmallow 6.0.1) . I renamed the file update.zip and placed it in the root of the SDCARD . Then I went to update software in the settings and it found the rollback update .

Did the update and after the restart , I think it's because it restarted without SIMCARD , the phone asked me to enter the android password . So I went in the recovery mode ( Vol+ & Power ) , I wiped data and reinstall my simcard . Reboot and YAAAASSSSSSS , finally worked as it was out of the box . I've lost all my apps but nothing really important , I will never try to change that crappy radioband again . Try to find a B10 update for your region , and do the rollback , maybe it will work for you .

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] hector689:
Hi, may I suggest you modify the embedded systems for modem to see if you can unlock more of the European bands so you won't have this issue anymore and the phone would work as a regular phone made for the European market, this is possible and on my axon 7 u model I was able to unlock the Verizon band 13 which was being restricted at the embedded level. There is a guide on the forums on how to do it, it mostly generic for all devices that have a snap dragon processor.

[SOLVED] It was installed in the Secure Folder.. that's why I couldn't find it. I managed to install Avast, and then install it on the Secure Folder. Following that I ran Avast scan inside the secure folder and it found the apk and removed it. Pesky app..

Recently downloaded an apk that locked my phone.. I noted that it had the Draw over other apps permissions but didn't think it could cause this..

Anyway, this app fills the whole screen and can not remove it. I was able to turn off the phone by long pressing the power and volume buttons and when restarting I discovered that I was able to use the phone for a couple minutes before the malware appeared again.

During this time I was able to power off phone and get to Safe Mode. I disabled all the apps which had the overlay permission and also apps that affect system configuration.

But I am currently not being able to find it and uninstall it. Although doing the above steps the malware still appears and locks my screen when I enter normal mode.

**Is there a way to find the latest app installed and remove it without root? Otherwise, would it be possible to remove it via ADB? I've never used it but I believe it could be useful this time.. the only thing is I am not sure what's the .apk name..

I'm using a Galaxy S8 international version without root

Thanks in advance for your help!!!!

Alright guys, I was trying to fix my fingerprint (which I ended up doing) by flashing the global dev ROM 7.8.31 via fastboot with the miflash tool but I accidentally locked the bootloader while doing so. My phone came with the bootloader unlocked and now I can no longer unlock the bootloader. in developper options, the OEM unlocking option is enabled but no matter what I do in fastboot, the process simply does not work. I get the remote token verification has failed message. I have tried every freakin guide out there but my phone now refuses to get unlocked. I can't flash anything with miflash tool anymore, it just says failed, even when trying to flash the global dev 7.8.31 ROM. Anyone can help me here? Xiaomi says my device is unsupported for unlocking yet it was unlocked from the start........

Same happened to me. I re-lock bootloader to install android pay, and bricked my phone.

Have to reboot in EDL mode (after >50 tries) and flash again.

But... Flashed a locked bootloader version, so i have to request for official unlock (phone came unlocked)

Now I have unlocked bootloader, with Magisk and Safety Net module with Android Pay working fine.

PS: i also had the IP problem. Used a Chinese proxy to override restriction.

Hi again

Well, the material is always right ....

After all, I was able to resurrect the honor again, just as I had done it the other time. It was with a rom kanvip through the twrp.

- He could only install the rom plugged directly into the mains. At this point you can only connect if you are connected to the mains. If it is connected to the PC or it is not connected, it simply does not turn on.

- After it starts (connected to the mains), I disconnect it from the mains and stays connected, but as soon as I try to install something (even minimal) it automatically shuts off.

What will it be ??

I do not know if any of you have had an identical problem and if this will be repaired and if so, it will be worth the same.

[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b4co:
Yes it has OS installed (EMUI4.0.1_H60-L02_6.12.1)

But the phone only starts at the OS when it is plugged into the power outlet.

If you try to connect the phone connected to the computer or not connected to anything, it simply loops in the first logo of honor

I have already been told that it will probably be a battery problem, but honestly I do not think so because the battery is fully charged

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] touchlasvegas:
Hey, as the topic states, I am losing my PocketPlus tab icons when i switch from 96 dpi to any other. Normally I always run at 96 dpi, but some of my programs require 192 dpi to function....now when i switch resolutions my icons change to generic white windows with stars in them, if i go to change the icons back, i get no choice of icons at all. then i switch back to 96 dpi, and I can change the icons to whatever I want...is there any way to get the icons to stick when i change resolutions? Its strange because its only the "tab" icons that change, the program icons all stay no matter what resolution i run.

Yeah, will take 30 days to get here, but you still won't have the phone by then! ;) You'll still have a case or cases before LG has released the carrier unlocked version of this phone, maybe in mid-October.

I would agree, but for being a glass slab, this phone seems tougher than most. I actually dropped my phone from about waist height to a wood floor. It survived! Concrete might be a different story. So, there's probably some advantage for it passing these tests, and obviously no slab phone is full proof.
