FRP is bound to the MAC Address of your device... I doubt you can bypass it on Marshmallow as they fixed all the possible bypass methods, but give it a try... this worked under Lollipop

On the other hand: the seller should give you the Password - except it's a stolen device. eBay is famous for... Just a hint...
[Lenovo Yoga Book Questions & Answers] alhtc:
I bought from "blinq". Not individual seller. Maybe not their fault?

It seems the above method doesn't work . I can't even go further than the google keyboard setting step. After clicking "about google keybaord" nothing comes up...
[Lenovo Yoga Book Questions & Answers] alhtc:
I succeeded to go to "settings" by similar way at last.

But I can't turn on developer mode by repeat clicking the "build numbers "

I still tried factory reset the machine inside settings. But still ask me for the previous login info after the first boot up.

Any hints??
[Lenovo Yoga Book Questions & Answers] alhtc:
I saw there is system update that can be downloaded. Shall I try???
[Lenovo Yoga Book Questions & Answers] jamespmi:
I doubt that will solve a thing...

That has to work once you made it to the settings... Press repeatedly, like 20x fast and continuously till the "countdown shows up"...

Same problem here... how did you get to Settings???
[Lenovo Yoga Book Questions & Answers] themiracy:
Is this Android or Windows? And is it asking you for a pre-boot password (either a Windows Bitlocker decryption password or an Android pre-boot decryption password) or is it booting into the system and then asking you for a password?
[Lenovo Yoga Book Questions & Answers] yngv27:
FRP

This is an Android thing. It's designed to lock a unit after it's been reset from bootloader menu if a previous user hasn't signed out. Theft deterrent. I never got around the FRP, but the previous owner gave me the credentials I needed to continue setup, so my situation is solved.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] Dito13:
Hey there fellow U11 Users,

I just received the update concerning 60fps HD-Video etc. I use TWRP so the update can't be installed by itself. So I have two questions:

A

Where do I find the update file. I looked around a lot but couldn't locate it.

B

Once found, can I just flash it with TWRP?

Thanks in advance!

btw...twrp can install the update but you need to flash the firmware.zip inside the ota manually
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] Dito13:
Thank you kindly!
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] Dito13:
Just to be clear: I only flash the firmware.zip manually via TWRP or do I need to flash the whole ota?

Sorry for the question. I mostly handled Nexus devices...
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] OMJ:
twrp will install the ota zip but it wont install the firmware.zip inside, you have to extract & manually install from download mode
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] Dito13:
grrr.... I tried following your suggestions, but recieved error 7 in TWRP. Can you help me in the right direction?
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] OMJ:
list your steps your using to install the ota via twrp....personally, I let the system initiate the install (booted into OS) as if I was 100% stock, once twrp loads, it automatically installs except for the firmware.zip

more details here...
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] Dito13:
OK, I am a Noob to the HTC world. I am used to easy flashing/rooting/etc. on Nexus devices.

TWRP doesn't do anything after accepting the ota. When I try to install the OTA via TWRP I receive Error 7. I worked my way through a lot of guides here on XDA concerning manual OTA installing. One thing I tried was flashing back to stock recovery which I found in the firmware.zip of the OTA in bootloader mode. That failed also ("FAILED (remote: not allowed on PRODUCTION device).

Edit: The device has obviously an unlocked bootloader, s-on, rooted via magisk and is a DGLU device, software number 1.16.400.5
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] schmeggy929:
Are you on an Untouched System Image? Completely stock ROM? While it is great we can flash the OTA in TWRP, the system stills needs to be stock, and of course will still have to fastboot firmware.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] Dito13:
Yes, everything is stock.

I managed to flash the stock recovery now. I didn't remember to use the download mode /sorry. Then Then I checked for the ota again, downloaded it and tried to apply but I landed in the stock recovery with the red exclamation mark and then nothing happened.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] schmeggy929:
re-flash twrp and try it again.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] Dito13:
:( Same result unfortunately. TWRP hands out Error 7 and "system partition has unexpected contents" or something like that although I didn't do any tinkering with the stock rom. I flashed Magisk and did a backup before and that was all.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] schmeggy929:
Only thing I would say is start fresh. Backup all the data for your apps first. Flash the RUU, Take the OTA and reinstall all your apps.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] Dito13:
Thanks again - seems to have worked. It will be interesting to see which problems occur with the Android Oreo update which was announced till the end of the year by HTC ;)

Anyone experienced this problem and/or know the solution?

Thanks.

I already try hardreset without success :mad: . Another think, if I restart the phone the bug disapear (for a time), but come back if I receive call or sms.

Have you already try a bluetooth headset??

[HTC Vox] prajith:
there is no such bug in Vox.

If you still think it is a software bug flash your device with some other ROM and if you are lucky that might help.

I use it with a bluetooth headset and its perfect.

according to me this is a hardware issue, and you are entitled to HTC support (flash back HTC original rom before you give it to service) :D

I do the same and reboot my phone when I receive an sms (I investigate, the bug appear only when i receive sms)

Hello!

This is more a general question than a specific device question

Lately I've been transferring lots of files and I'm using USB to transfer my files and I found out that the USB port of Xiaomi Mi 6 is a USB 2.0 version even if it is Type-C port.

and I'm looking for a better, faster way of transferring files, I don't care if I have to use USB or WiFi, all that matters is speed

Any suggestions?

Is Wi-Fi better?
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] svenerator:
Has nothing to do with USB 2.0/3.0, MTP is just ****. A suggestions would be to put all the files in a .zip archive on the PC and transfer that instead. When on the phone use an app which can decompress the zip file and voila

Ok I know Lenovo now is the owner of Motorola. I also know that support for our products is almost like nothing...:o

The person at support did not check my softwarechannel, and said that latest update was 1. july security patch. It did not come any for august.

When I asked about when securityupdates usually comes out, he said usally montly, and sometimes they skip a month.

And then I understand why securityapps like antivirus and others sell really well, phones are not updated regularly.

He told me I could search for Motorola Blogspot, and there I could find announcements of new patches. Anyone heard of this, did find a page with news from 2016. :confused:
[Moto Z2 Play  Questions & Answers] Noob4ROM:
Still no security update or updates at all.

And we are now in the middle of september. My *NEW phone is still on 1. july patch of security. I have got one -1 update on my phone on "reteu" channel.

Sorry to say, I do not belive I will get any more updates, before maybee desember. (some say we will get Oreo, Motorola knows nothing) :fingers-crossed:

Still the apps force close, usally Chrome and Google+ is freezing and shutting down.

Hi All,

Just recently I've changed the carrier from vodafone to wind italy with current operato GPS stops during calls

Connected or off line applications like GPS status, google maps are suffering the same issue and once the call is terminated the GPS signal is back

The issue is present on my wife Z1 compact as well, swapping the sim on a samsung galaxy S4 the issue disappear so it's present only sony xperia devices

Any advice on how to fix?

Thanks

Hello,

I have a SM-765S (SM-R765SDAASKC). Unfortunately it is bricked, completely stuck in the ODIN mode. In the recovery non of the options are working (except for the power off).

I managed to connect to the pc using a usb cable, but the problem is that the watch not accepting any firmware that is currently available here. ODIN fails with the "complete(write) operation failed" error. If I try to repartition the watch will display the "Secure Check Fail: (PIT)" message.

And if we simple search for text string modem...

So I am more sure... Somebody tried to flash Combination Firmware from SM-R760...

Only difference why RSA 2048 Signature differ...

I have an theory...

Maybe Gear is really able to self sign...

Maybe RSA 2048 private key is somewhere...

Because also strange if FOTA update from Revision 01 to 02...
