[Moto G4 Play Questions & Answers] mzsquared:
Thanks again!

Uh, I have to learn more about these things. Gonna read more treads and practice, practice, practice! You're right, the test shows that the bootloader is locked despite everything else showing otherwise. Attempted recovery from adb:

* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *

* daemon started successfully *

ZY223J9V76 device

J:\justadb>adb reboot bootloader

J:\justadb>fastboot devices

ZY223J9V76 fastboot

J:\justadb>fastboot reboot recovery

(bootloader) slot-count: not found

(bootloader) slot-suffixes: not found

(bootloader) slot-suffixes: not found

usage: fastboot [ <option> ] <command>

commands:

update <filename> …............................

I have to realize how tricky this stuff is. Seemingly little variations can mess up a lot on the outcome. I have an idea what I did wrong while flashing this Nougat firmware, but am not sure, all I do about android is based on my intuition:laugh:. I thought that I discovered aspirin by not entering, copy/paste the fastboot commands line by line manually, but instead I just double clicked the Windows batch file folder “flash rom stock nougat”, that was quick an easy enough. Basically, Lenovo did the flashing for me, right? I looked at the xml flash files, its possible that they contain something to lock the bootloader in the process. I am going to wipe it off and re-flash it manually later tonight.

So, it's 10:50 now, done re-flashing. Did it manually with those lines:

fastboot oem fb_mode_set

fastboot flash partition gpt.bin

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img

fastboot flash logo logo.bin

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin ============= by_the_way what's dsp adspso? The flash passes over blank, not in firmware files at all

fastboot flash oem oem.img

fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0

fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1

fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2

fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3

fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4

fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.5

fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

fastboot erase modemst1

fastboot erase modemst2

fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn

fastboot erase cache

fastboot erase userdata

fastboot erase customize

fastboot erase clogo

fastboot oem fb_mode_clear

fastboot reboot

and the Nougat reboot came back w/o the bootloader warning again. Checked that reboot recovery from fastboot, nothing, and then I went back to adb and from there I could finally get the recovery screen. Does that mean that I'm just being lucky not having that nasty warning or what? Am gonna leave it, as long as I can get root again. It's my backup phone, totally functional and totally free*(200min) phone usage and (500) texts with FreedomPop LTE sim, paid about 6 bucks a year ago for the service and as long as I won't use any data from my 200MB monthly allotment:), it'll stay free forever. My sidekick phone.

Got a notification from Bixby today about setting up find my phone from Samsung. Went to do that and its not there. Verizon removed it because they offer a pay service that does the same. I know people have done system dumps, but i'm wondering has anyone added this feature back to phone that it was removed from?

you took the Note 8 back because the play store would not update your apps over mobile data?

:laugh:

there is a specific setting in the play store app that allows that.

No, everything was changed and sometimes apps would update but it became so much of an issue I had to return it. Even WiFi didn't work. I have unlimited so wifi isn't even an issue for me or a viable option for data.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] PackElend:
I'm quiet a noob in regard to logcat. I got it to work and my logs seem to be usable but I don't really know what I did.

Based on endless reading and trying I figured out that that I can retrieve logs as soon as logcat viewer is connected to my phone. There are multiple viewers on available as discussed in stackoverflow- android desktop log viewer or do it only by the means of ADB (in conjunction with LineageOS bug report).

Furthermore I found good explanation about the log levels and message types.

But what do you do when you on the move with phone. I know there a plenty of apps. I used aLogcat root but it exported only a fraction of the live log, why ever?

mLogcat allowed me to save huge logs what began before I connected it to a desktop PC. I cannot explain how that is possible sine any other viewer shows only live logs and may shows only a limited number of log entries.

So I would like to know how is the logging process started and how it is ended. Is there any command or does an logcat app need to run. If an app is necessary, does it have to run in the foreground or background?

Hey guys,

I'm having an issue here with my beloved Mate 9.

Whenever I turn off Bluetooth. I notice that currently connected devices are still attached. Regardless of which method I use to turn off BT albeit toggle from pull down or going into settings and turning it off my main toggle.

It seems my phone refuses to shut it off.

There might be another program running that forces bluetooth on.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] ikenvape:
Thanks for the replies.

I cleared the cache and data but unfortunately no go.

I'm thinking it's a possible hardware problem. However, the issue started recently. When I toggle it from the shade, there's no response. When I pull up the notification shade then pull it back down the icon will change but Bluetooth resumes on as connected devices (tested a few) When I disable or enable from settings, it just turns greyed out then I'm forced to hold down from the shade toggle to re-enter the menu.

I'm on MHA-L29c56 running B190. Considering rooting at this point for further troubleshooting.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eazy:
Hi!

I wonder what is the best (secure) way to flash the latest radio. Should I flash radio from factory image or does the flashable radios from here with TWRP do the same trick?

It seems easier to flash from TWRP. I'm also unsure how do when I flash the radio from factory image, but this is how I think I should do. Please correct me if I'm wrong about this.

1. Follow this guide to install SDK "Step 2: Installing The Necessary Desktop Tools"

2. Extract the radio image from the factory zip. In this case: radio-shamu-d4.01-9625-05.45+fsg-9625-02.117.img

3. Rename it to radio.img (dont know why it should be renamed. Do I have to rename?).

4. in ADB "fastboot flash radio radio.img"

Is flashing the radio with TWRP the same I think I rather do that. I have to update my TWRP for installing the latest Pure Nexus rom so I need to install SDK anyway.

Thankful for any response :)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pkt_Lnt:
Same result either way.

Fastboot flash works for those with no custom recovery, so best for everyone / every rom including pure bone stock. If you have a custom recovery, choose whatever method you want. Fastboot has built safety checks *provide* you choose the correct partition to flash. TWRP zip can only go to the designated partition, make *certain* you know the zip provider is known, respected, and safe. Always make sure you know where images / zips come from before flashing via *any* method.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktmom:
I I get a dead link when I follow your flashable radios link, so I don't know if it's the Nexus 6 Recovery Flashable Radios (Unlocked Bootloader Only) thread. I have used the radios from that thread without trouble.

It's not necessary to install the full Android Studio SDK to use fastboot. You could use the standalone binaries instead.

The reason the guide tells you to rename the radio img is to make life easier for the "fastboot flash radio.img" command. Otherwise, the command would have to use the full name of the radio img package and that is error prone for people typing it in.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eazy:
Thanks for the responses and explaining!

Strange, the link works for me, but it is the same you linked to...

I would rather flash with adb.

Is my "guide" I made correct?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktmom:
More or less. You are using fastboot, not adb.

You need to boot the device to the bootloader (fastboot mode). Then test the connection to the phone using "fastboot devices". If that reports the correct device, the you can use the "fastboot flash radio <radio.img>" command.

Here's a Tim Schofield video. It's for a sprint phone but that doesn't matter. The procedure is the same.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eazy:
I managed to flash both radio and a new TWRP successfully from "fastboot" using my guide. Now my phone is ready to flash latest Pure Nexus :)

Thanx for all help! I really appreciate it :)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktmom:
Make sure you're on an sufficiently new bootloader. The radio was unnecessary for a ROM update. The radio (modem) is independent of release. The previously linked radio thread discusses this.

"Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment." - Will Rogers
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eazy:
I know I didn't need the radio. I just wanted the latest one.

So I need to flash the latest bootloader?

I guess I flash that with fastboot. The same way I flashed radio.

Does it matter in which order I flash things?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktmom:
I don't know if you need to flash a bootloader. It will depend on what your current bootloader is. If it a 6.x release, then to go to the July release of PN, yes, you would have to flash a new bootloader. This is all described in the first multiple posts in the PN thread as well as the release posts within the thread.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eazy:
I have been on Pure Nexus since it first came out . Right now I'm on Pure Nexus 6.0.1-20160506.

I have never flashed a bootloader, and I have never read it is required. Trying to find the information about it, but can't find it.

Is it enough to flash only the bootloader or do I have to flash the whole factory image?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktmom:
Yes, installing the bootloader is done through fastboot. Use the newest bootloader and it'll be fine. PN install post for MM to N 10/10/2016.

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] mt2020:
Was with ATT, no issues updating. Went over to Verizon Pre-paid. Phone will not OTA. Have spent 6 hours on phone with Verizon and google, nobody can figure it out. Not rooted, ever. We removed sim, no OTA. Wiped Network settings, nope. Safe boot, nope, factory reset, nope. My nexus 6p with "no carrier" (wifi calling only) updating perfect, my wife's 5x on cricket updating perfect, but not the pixel. Refuses ever since put on Verizon.

My theory is since Verizon sells a pixel, Google knocked me off OTA thinking Verizon supports it. Verizon says they didn't sell it, unlocked, so they won't push updates. Getting nowhere.

Anyone have thoughts or experience doing this same thing?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] TonikJDK:
What about pulling the SIM and manually check for updates via wireless? If that fails you could also ADB sideload it.

Or flash the whole image if you arw unlocked.

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] bobby janow:
They are sending you a refurbished phone. If you like your original device why not sideload the OTA now before you replace it. You can return the refurb if the ota sideload works. Seems to me like you had a very nice working Pixel until you didn't get one security update. Throwing the baby out with the bathwater? Just an opinion, do as you feel necessary.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] mt2020:
Well, it also refused Oreo 8 update, and some other minor issues, and yea, I want to keep it, but my phone is watched/tracked by my broker-dealer (securities licensed) and I am forbidden to side load or root. This is to protect Clients. real bummer. Equifax has no repercussions, but I'm so locked down on cell phones and computers you can't believe it.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] bobby janow:
Oh, that's another story then. So they pay for your phone, usage and any replacements? Might be time to get a personal device with your own phone number. I'd never trust that kind of stuff. So when you get another device then they won't want to track that one? Didn't you say that it was on ATT and everything including updates was working fine? I think I'm missing some of the story. Either way, good luck with the replacement.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] mt2020:
I'm an independent and pay 100% for all expenses. I loose my ability to do business if I don't let them control my electronics. I have a nexus 6p for personal on ATT, updates perfect. I wanted to move all svc to Verizon since I travel a lot to areas ATT has no coverage.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] bobby janow:
Got ya. Let them control the 6p and keep the Pixel pristine! Lol. Hope it works out for you. Curious, let us know.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] tfly212:
I had a very similar situation...I am on VZW and regularly got OTAs until about 6 months ago then they stopped. I also use a SIM from Project FI when I travel abroad. Somehow switching between the two caused OTAs to be ignored. My device is unrooted, bootloader locked and for corporate security purposes we have Aiwatch Agent to monitor violations. I am able to sideload via ADB and it is quite easy....it is definitely not the security risk that flashing a ROM is on an unlocked phone. Might be worth a shot.

Weirdly, OTAs came back to me after I registered for the O beta. Good luck.
