[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] sorabhsolanki:
what is the difference between format data and wipe data? isn't it same?i am asking so because i havnt seen such option in recovery before.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Hollow6:
Every ROM does contains its own system ..

When you flash any ROM (a full fledged ROM not OTAs) , the previous system is replaced by the later one ..

---------- Post added at 05:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:50 AM ----------

You'll have to understand what Format Exactly we are here talking about .. When you go to TWRP/wipe , you are provided with 2 options , Format and Advanced wipe .

The format option is set to "wipe" the partitions, /data /cache /dalvik , that is generally what we require in order to flash ROMs , the wipe Option is hence the same as format , but I think the guy above is talking about Full fledged Wipe that includes the "internal storage" as well which can be selected by twrp/wipe/advanced wipe
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] sorabhsolanki:
thanks.one more question.

why dont i need to disable dm-verity and forced encryption after flashing custom rom?why kernel doesn't trigger it,because in that case there is a modification in system partition and dm-verity feature of kernel should prevent the rom from booting.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Hollow6:
The "kernel" itself also gets replaced by a modified kernel .. But then again , I'm not sure as to why DM verity doesn't kick in , better ask the Developers (Y)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] M@n!$h:
when you want to revert back you dont need to wipe anything or flash disable dm verify, just restore your previous nandroid backup and thats all
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spannernick:
I have had the note 2 for about 2 to 3 years and its been working fine I have a S4 too,I swap between phones so sometimes I use the S4 and sometime the Note 2,I was using my S4 for about 6 months and decided to use my Note 2 for a change and put my sim in and turned it on and it would say there is no sim in the phone ,looking at the settings it had no Baseband and no IMEI ,showing as Unknown ,it was on CFW DN4 and was working fine 6 months ago.so I downloaded a ROM from the SamMoblie website for O2UK cos I am with Sky Mobile and they use there network and didn't see why it wouldn't work.

Anyway.

I flashed the ROM with Odin 3.07 and now it recognize the sim but thinks it on O2UK ,it has a baseband now but the IMEI is the wrong number,and it will not registered on the Sky Network,if you go to More Networks in Settings you can see Sky in the list but will not register on there network.(Can't connect to network,try later)

Any ideas why the IMEI has changed,it not the same as the sticker under the battery..?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Valkyrie146:
Hi,

It looks like your EFS partition either got corrupted, formatted, or simply did not mount. The reason you cannot connect to the network is because you're not allowed to. You NEED IMEI because it is used to identify your device. Flashing stock rom wont help you. If you have a backup, go ahead and flash it via recovery. If not, try this link: http://www.androwide.com/2015/07/recover-lost-imei-number-of-android.html

(Insert the exact IMEI that you have on the box/under the battery. It is illegal to fake your IMEI in a majority of countries.)

Regards
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spannernick:
Can't do any of what it says on the page cos its for a MTK chip,MediaTek,Galaxy Note 2 N7100 don't have that chip.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Have you tried flashing other stock ROMs? Does the imei start with 0049...?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spannernick:
Yes it dose 0049... going to try and fix it with BST dongle,I have flashed original firmware on it now,its 4.4.2,It did have RESURRECTION REMIX on it but can't remember the version maybe the one with Android 5.1.1,then when I put my sim in it to use it after 6 months It would't read the sim,like it was not there and had Baseband Unknown on it..very weird,flashed original firmware on it then it was able to read my sim but then had the 0049... IMEI...??

Hopefully I can fix it with BST dongle,just waiting for the updated version of the BST PCB Adapter V1.1 to be delivered,coming from China.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Looks like the folder containing the IMEI has been corrupted.

Good luck with the cable.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spannernick:
It worked,BST fixed it by puting the IMEI back on the phone,I had to type it in,now it connecting to the network,wow,the best thing I have brought in a long time.. ;) so all fixed.

oh and BST works fine on Windows 10 too.

So Now I have backed up its EFS file and can put custom roms on it without worrying about losing my network,at the moment it has original firmware on it 4.4.2.No plan of puting a Custom ROM on it at the moment,just glad I can use the phone again.

Website: http://www.gsmbest.com/en/ShowProduct.asp?Id=4

I got it from eBay and had to buy a new BST PCB Adapter so it was compatible with 4.4.2 cos the UART cable didn't work ,now it does with v1.2 of the PCB Adapter,I got thats from AliExpress.

Hope this helps someone.

The problem is my htc touch cruise think the bracelet is a handsfree. And therefore there is no sound when I answer the phone. Is there anyway to resolve this problem?
[Touch Cruise Accessories] phsnake:

Hello everybody i've a similar problem:

My bracelet is recognized like an handsfree set, but during the beginning of the callinf it take off, so it's good...

Moreover the bracelet doesn't vibrate for a sms notification, but only for call notification..

Thanks for your help.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JAMedlock83:
I just upgraded to Android Oreo via OTA. When I go to plug in the phone to my computer, it doesn't show up. In the Device Manager is has "Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed)".

When i swipe down, I don't even get the option to change it from Charging to PTP

Is there an updated driver that I need for the new update?

I'm running Windows 10
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coremania:
You can try to reset and setup the USB debugging settings and configuration in the developer options.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v12xke:
No there are no new drivers to install. Try a different cable/port. If you are using USB-C to USB-C, try a USB-A cable. As mentioned revoking/enabling USB debugging might help. If you are unlocked you can install TWRP and use MTP to take off any files you need before factory resetting.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JAMedlock83:
None of this worked. I've reset the phone twice.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vyrus027:
I had this problem. Try plugging it on a different computer and see if it shows your files and reads the phone. If that happens. The drivers in your pc is the problem. I would try to uninstall and re install google drivers.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v12xke:
Okay, but resetting the phone is not addressing the different PC/port/cable possibilities. It could also be the USB port on your device but it sounds like a PC driver issue or cable. Try a different PC and see what happens.

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unboundkhaos:
I have a factory unlocked sm-g920t.

Unbranded from amazon.

I flashed tmobiles firmware (G920TUVU5FQE1_G920TTMB5FQE1_G920TUVU5FQE1_HOME.tar.md5 this one) from 6.1.1 to 7.0

I lost my unlock and can not unlock with tmo's native unlock application.

If someone could direct me to the correct 7.0 firmware for an unlocked g920t to flash i'd be very greatful or help me figure out what i need to do to regain my unlock carrier status.

Any help at all would really be appreciated.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] gruuvin:
The flexible and curved screen technologies came out a few years ago, but there wasn't much practical use for them. These were solutions waiting for problems. That's cool. Even the giant curved screen TVs that came out since then seem to be useful only if you plan on viewing the TV from a four meter distance. That makes sense.

But the Galaxy Edge screen? "Uhhhhhh, okay, it's cute, but can we move along now?"

People seem to love their Galaxy Edge screens, but I honestly don't get it -- at all! I'm definitely a function-over-form kind of guy, and so I don't want the edges of my screen wraping around the sides of the device and facing away from me. Because this is less than optimal design, it actually looks ugly to me. So, it seems it's only function is to be a gimmick to sell more product to people who are more form-over-function than function-over-form.

This is my opinion, and other opinions may differ.

So now that Samsung is not offering their new Galaxy devices without the Edge wrap-around screens, I won't be buying them until they bring back the flat screens.

Are there some other practical uses for the screen wrapping around half of the device's side? And are these uses worth the trade off of sacrificing pixels that face you when viewing your screen normally?

If Samsung really must continue the gimmick I hope they get wise and bring back totally flat screen as a Galaxy product option.

That's my feelings, but what do others think about curved edges vs flat?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Beanvee7:
Really don't like curved edges either, I think it looks nice but functionally I'd just prefer flat. Also makes cases weird as they have to cut around the curved sides.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Domino5:
Gimmick ;) I personally HATE curved displays. You can't fully protect it with tempered glass. There are curved ones but those have glue only on the edges not whole panel. It also gives ugly light reflexes. I believe that was designed to eliminate decent screen protection and make devices less shatter proof. I hope there will be flat Galaxy S9 if not i will probably (sadly) abandon samsung. 2,5D is a BS also
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] stillsober:
gimmick, i hate it. hard to protect with case, makes replacement screen more expensive too

You can install the P8 Lite B610, then you can flash this kernel.

Root modifies the Kernel. If you change it, root is gone. To root again, you can just flash the latest SuperSU or Magisk zip. You don't need those 2 root files. To fix the 10 second wait, you could disable SIM PIN.
