[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Semyon777:
Hello, everyone!

The problem is that when booted, the phone only vibrates and turns off immediately. The screen never enables, LED for charging never enables. When connected to a charger, just vibrates. Tried to follow the steps here : installed the Soc driver, plugged the phone, tried to power it off - device manager recognized the phone for a couple of seconds and then it's gone.

Long story short: I tried to install official firmware upgrade using TWRP > Install > .zip. The installation was going on for a couple of minutes and then the screen blacked out. Since then, the phone does not boot.

So, I got bored of my Android 5 and decided to install a custom ROM, but I had to upgrade official firmware before that.

At first, I dove into how to install custom ROM tutorials, so I did the rooting first:

I downloaded a BootLoaderUnlocker program from the official Asus website and unlocked the BL. Then, I followed a tutorial for one-click-root, and succeded. Then I installed TWRP and flashed the Recovery to the latest available img for my phone and tried to install the Lineage OS 14.1 but got status 7 error, meaning something is incompatible.

This post states, that in order to install Lineage OS 14.1 I have to have a firmware at least MM 4.21.40.xx which is Android 6, so I went to the official Asus website and downloaded the Firmware upgrade. Since, I probably had the wrong BL at that point, I flashed the bootloader with TWRP for Z00A (Lollipop) 2.8.7.3 from here, which is the same website from which the post suggest to download a BL for MM (Android 6). I thought, since I currently have the Lolipop, should install the BL for that, just to be sure. Then I started the firmware upgrade, which rebooted the phone into the BL, I didn't think, and just pressed Normal Boot and the phone booted as usual in the old Android. Then I tried to initiate the instalation again but couldn't (it's supposed to auto-detect the file in the storage root), so I got an idea to just boot the Recovery, maybe it will continue. So, I did that, and the TWRP showed up (I forgot about it already and thought that the instalation would just continue), so I just pressed Install and chose the firmware upgrade zip manualy. The installation was going on for a couple of minutes and then the screen blacked out.

Since then, the phone does not boot. If I try to, it vibrates like it is going to boot, but then nothing happens (not even a logo).

I even tried to disconnect the battery: removed all the screws, removed the back panel and manually disconnected it. When I put it back the phone vibrated like it was going to boot, but nothing happened again.

P.S. I tried to boot into the Recovery, but that just does not work, and even did not work before the firmware upgrade (I googled, that I must press power and volume up and hold until the logo appears, but that doesn't happen).

upd: plugged into the charger, periodically shows the battery icon on the screen.

upd: I went to a service and the dude said I might have screwed up the `preLoader`, so some might say it's a disastah

Resolved

So, I went to a service and turns out I messed up the PreLoader, that boots the BootLoader. Sometimes this cannot be restored and costs a bunch of money to replace the memory block, but I got lucky and got the phone repaired.

P.S. Do not install official firmware with programs like TWRP, use only your manufacturer's SoftWare

[Tasker Tips & Tricks] Plomiwn:
Hey there,

so after recent problems with toggle data plugin/magisk for switching mobile data i decided to get toggles for mobile data and gps without other tools than tasker.

After some readings here and on stackoverflow i managed to get solutions for both without 3rd party apps.

So here it goes:

Mobile data toggle

Type - > RUN SHELL (use root)

Command:

setenforce permissive;
svc data enable; (or disable for off)
setenforce enforcing;

GPS location provider toggle

Type - > RUN SHELL (use root)

Command:

(for high accuracy)

settings put secure location_providers_allowed +gps;
settings put secure location_providers_allowed +network;

(for batery saving from high accuracy)

settings put secure location_providers_allowed -gps;

(for completly off from high accuracy)

settings put secure location_providers_allowed -gps;
settings put secure location_providers_allowed -network;

the toggle of mobile data will probably work with other solution for 2g toggle posted around here.

Solution tested on HTC10 with Nougat 7.0.

Hope it helps.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] TwinAdk:
You tested this in Android 7.0,in 2017. I can confirm this still works in 9.0, on my OP6 running OOS :good: ;)

Nothing beats shell commands - so damn effective, love them :highfive:

Kind Regards

TwinAdk
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] TwinAdk:
Here is the XML file for toggling GPS :svetius::highfive:

Run the task when needed, it take the current GPS status into consideration. The XML should be imported into Tasker.

Errors are logged to the clipboard (respecting existing content), and a flashing message will provide you with the result of the shell commands.

Full location is enabled (triangulation via GPS, wifi networks and cell towers).

This draws the most power but gives you the best location fix.

The Autolocation app is recommended for GPS tricks, and Autolocation for location-aware tasker tricks. None of these two apps can flip the GPS switch though... Previously I used the Secure settings app (AWESOME app) - but sadly it crashes constantly on later android versions (8 and 9 in my experience) - and all alternatives costs money.

Now we can flip that GPS switch ourselves. Why didn't I look into this earlier :silly:

God I love Android! :victory:

Kind Regards

[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iAbdullah_uk:
So, I have a Daydream Controller I'm trying to pair with my Nexus 5X. On Android Nougat, it was as easy as launching the Daydream app, and hold the home button to pair the controller. However, with Android Oreo, it does not work! I went to Bluetooth settings to check whether the device detects the Daydream Controller, but it doesn't. However, on my laptop, the controller shows up as "Daydream Controller"... Furthermore, I tried with some more devices (bluetooth headset is detected, my laptop is detected). What do you think the issue is? Am I missing out something?

Edit: I want to add that I have Magisk installed (I am rooted).
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ~Phil~:
Hello,

Is there any rom port which is based on oxygenOS in the nougat version?

Or is there any nougat rom, which i can use with the "Sparkasse+" app (not working with root) which is based on nougat with the features of the oxygenOS features?

Thanks,

Phil
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nick80835:
There is no OOS Nougat port for this device and I doubt there will ever be one. I suggest LineageOS 14.1 or GlassROM if you want safetynet to pass. :p
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sungfive:
An OxygenOS port is possibile but it will never be a full port but only a partial one. It could be possible to port the launcher, the camera (without libraries) and some features but without properly nougat drivers it won't be so stable.

You can try all no pre-rooted custom roms

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] afdals:
Using always connected to Charger?
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Rhoban:
For long term battery health I wouldn't recommend keeping it plugged in for long periods of time. People say today's batteries have protective circuits that prevent overcharging, but I don't really trust this. So I simply unplug it as soon as it is fully charged.

As for actual better battery life, turn off everything you don't need - GPS, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Mobile Data etc. This phone should give you an average of 6 hours SOT. To obtain more you will probably need a custom kernel, but even then the results may vary.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] oVeRdOsE.:
Yeah it has protection circuit to protect overcharging. Lithium based batteries can always take charge, and might self-combust. (ok , worst case. basically, lithium can't get in contact with water. RH in air is just enough to start the self combustion reaction). Nowadays, Li-ion or Li-Po are well made, and this is less problematic.

This as been said, it doesn't mean that this circuit won't trigger the battery every 0.XXX% drop, which is not good, so yeah, until someone do electric reading test on the op5, I won't suggest to let the device plugged in when full.

Simple rules for lithuim based batteries :

- time will kill the battery, even if it's brand new sealed. (normal chemical reaction). Nothing we can do here, limit extreme temperatures, not too cold not too hot.

- heat will decrease battery life and capacity. This mean, dash charging will decrease life. So, 1.2A to 2.0 A@5v charger is more appropriate. Even if dash tech will regulate the charge, you still have a time that it will optimize to max power, so more heat.

- Polarity direction changes will decrease life/capacity. This mean, do not charge it if you don't need to.

- do not wait to drain it at 0%, I don't know what is the security factor from OnePLus. A single lithium based batterie under 2.60-2.75V, will mostlikely be dead , or will loose more than 50% of his capacity.

Some lithium based battery will perform better, but to keep low price, do not worry, oneplus use standard li-po.

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] SxScread:
When the phone is plugged, it doesn't use the battery anymore, therefore the battery is not drained. Once it reaches 100%, it just stays at 100% until you unplug it.

Some says that leaving the charger plugged is not ecological, because it still uses energy even if it doesn't charge anything, but in reality it hardly use energy. I don't remember the numbers, but it is really insignificant.

In the end, there are a lot of superstitions concerning charging and battery life, most coming from old habits and false/outdated information spreading through the internet. The only things very true is that you should avoid letting your battery going to 0%, and don't let your battery overheat, and that's all. Charge when you please, as long as you please, and avoid using low-cost chargers or batteries as some can be dangerous.

I used my Xiaomi Mi3 for 3 years, letting it plugged every night with a QuickCharge charger, and it could still handle a whole day when I finally sold it.

This app along with Adhell and any current fork has a bug of blocking certain websites without it being on the blocked list, also even when I have whitelisted it.

Try www.gumtree.com.au can you please fix this

The Fix: The standard blocklist [getadhell] .... had a website in it mtree.com which was inadvertantly blocking gumtree.com. So adding mtree.com to the whitelist circumvents this.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] NeedleGames:
Thank you for your feedback. It appears that this website is not loading even though it's not in the ad domains list. I will investigate this further. Do you know any other websites that are not loading?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Iwannagiv:
Not at the moment, I did have a list when I tried going over it with the original developer but unfortunately that fizzled out.

Perhaps make the original list removable too since your coding away.

Really appreciate your work and I hope your hard work pays off.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheBlueRaja:
For what its worth, i had the same issue with the UK version of the same site, only i use the app. The only way round it was to remove it from the adblocked apps.

Won't activate. I had a working Adhell, now I have nothing. Is AdShield using the same Key as Adhell on my device? Any solution?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] NeedleGames:
It uses a different key. Please update to version 1.1.0 that was released just a moment ago and use your own knox key!

To do that:

Enroll as a developer here: https://seap.samsung.com/enrollment

Generate KNOX Standard SDK key here: https://seap.samsung.com/license-keys

Put it into app and voila!

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] NeedleGames:
Can't help you then. Try Adhell 2.

It is like the changes are now permanent.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ioancr:
I noticed that too. Uninstalled Adhell without disabling url blocking and still had ads not showing up and online adblock check returned "no ads" message too. I think it's because hosts file remains unchanged unless you specifically revert to a backup version.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] NeedleGames:
Try installing app and uninstall it from the settings. I'll look at this issue later.

That's impossible. Looking at adhell's source code you can see that when pressing uninstall adhell in settings these actions are done:

firewallPolicy.cleanIptablesAllowRules();
firewallPolicy.cleanIptablesDenyRules();
firewallPolicy.cleanIptablesProxyRules();
firewallPolicy.cleanIptablesRedirectExceptionsRules();
firewallPolicy.cleanIptablesRerouteRules();
firewallPolicy.removeIptablesRules();

firewallPolicy is a part of Samsung's KNOX SDK. See here.

So I just got Mi6 in my hands today, and tried to install Xiaomi EU v8.5.2.0 ROM.

Now, it won't boot. Stuck in Mi logo.

I have flashed TWRP

I have wiped Dalvik Cache, Cache, System, Data, Internal Storage (and probably that messed it up)

Then, installed the ROM via sideload. Rebooted phone, and it's stuck in boot logo :(

Some friends said something about "boot.img" and SuperSU. What should I do now?

Thank you!
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] yumm91:
I think your best bet now to use miflash tool and flash fastboot rom.

Though if you can flash twrp, you should be able to flash custom rom using that. Follow the steps 1 by 1. Sometimes certain rom needs u to flash firmware first.
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] jejemc:
Hi if access to twrp put this ROM on : http://bigota.d.miui.com/7.8.24/miui_MI6Global_7.8.24_52ee82c864_7.1.zip

Then flash via twrp then reboot;)
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] cagriari:
Well, I have fixed it by repairing system partition. But now, no EU ROM will boot. MIUI Global Stable v8.2 boots, but Wi-Fi and fingerprint is broken.
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] jejemc:
So he restarted? Test can be ROM dev to see ;)

But bizarre that on stable ROM this does not work :rolleyes:
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] yumm91:
Yeah, I would suggest flash stable fastboot rom via miflash and start again. If fingerprint/wifi still broken after flash fastboot rom via miflash, there is high chance the hardware is broken.

If it does back to stock and everything works, follow flash procedure for custom rom step by step. There is no real reason it will not work. Good luck
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] cagriari:
MiFlash gives me "cast id invalid" error, I've been using TWRP and fastboot to flash. I flashed it few times, but it didn't work. So I wiped all the data, flashed again and it works now.

I am using xiaomi.eu ROM myself flashed via twrp 3.1.1.0 Seems working fine. I just boot the twrp via fastboot boot, using twrp mtp to transfer EU rom inside, and flashed.

Done. Everything works. I am currently under miui 8.2 atm. Seems good so far.

I've seen a few references to this, but no answers and/or solutions. Does anyone know if it's possible to put the poutlook from wm6 into wm5? I would guess theoretically, it should be, since it's just files. But I have no idea which ones, or if on a non-upgradeable rom phone (treo for instance) they could be replaced.

I saw a thread here stating that the Office Mobile 6.1 upgrade allows html email in wm5, but I tried that, and it doesn't do it Can't do wm6 on a 700wx and html email is a big issue for me (via activesync - even flexmail won't do html email in that, only pop/imap)

Any ideas? I'd really appreciate anything anyone might know

Thanks much!

just backup, with pimbackup for example..

What are you talking about? I'm looking to get html email through activesync on wm5. How does backing up do anything for that? As for copying the files (which drag and drop I imagine would work) I don't know all the files involved in poutlook - dlls and such. I'm sure it's more than just the exe.
