[Samsung Galaxy Light Questions & Answers] Hic_Svnt_Dracones:
I just got a Galaxy Light for free that I am setting up for a friend, and right after I got it, I flashed it to TWRP, and put in Tiger Lily, then went to CM12. When I popped in her sim (ATT) It didn't do anything, and as far as teh phone was concerned, no sim card existed. I couldn't get into mobile network settings due to the "insert sim card to access network settings" error, except on CM12, where I got the "User does not have permissions to edit APN" message. I did eventually get a few codes to work and got to the basic service menu, where I could verify it was reading a radio. I have tried Tiger Lily, 2 different CM12 builds, and Stock 4.4.2, and it doesn't seem to read the Sim at all. Also, all builds except stock give a blank IMEI when I check it with *#06#. I am thinking it is unlocked, as i don't get a code request, and I swear it was on Boost when I got it, though it could just not be reading the sim. I tried a few other older Sim's, with the same issue, though I don't know if any were tmobile or metro variants.

I am downloading the 4.2.2 firmware now, to retry regionlockaway with the older modem, but, looking to see if anyone has any input on this. Any way to see if it is unlocked or not? I don't want to buy an unlock code if it is already unlocked, plus I can't get to any of the unlock screens.

Most of what I read is so old, that it doesn't apply, so updated info would be awesome. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Light Questions & Answers] Hic_Svnt_Dracones:
After downgrading to 4.4.2 (T399NUVUANK3_CL2903595_QB2893704_REV00) I did get the sim unlock prompt again. If anyone knows of any software unlocks, would love to know them, else gonna buty an unlock code if I can get a recommendation. Thanks!

For anyone needing the SGH-T399N stock firmware for the Metro edition, here is a link, as it was hard to find. I kept getting T-mobile versions, which will lock you at the boot logo.

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] sliding_billy:
My wife has a bunch of photos on her Pixel that she has saved from text messages, camera shots, downloads, etc. They show in the various albums as she saves them. All of the albums are set to backup to Google photos, and when you go to the photos link everything shows up normally. When you go to the albums view though, there are a handful of gray boxes. You cannot long press these boxes to try to delete. If you long press an active photo, you can then select the full date of any photos in that area which does not get rid of the gray boxes but actually seems to confuse things more and deletes some things by date and leaves the gray boxes and even changes the date that includes the boxes. I've tried copy/deleting all locally stored photos and then placing them in a single folder. I've then deleted thumbnails and clearing cache and data, but it just results in a single album with gray picture boxes. There doesn't seem to be a way to just delete the boxes since they don't match by date or predictably delete what you want. I could try just pasting the photos that I want locally until I start seeing the boxes, but there are a ton of photos. and I hope someone has an idea of how to get rid of the boxes. The other option of course is to just deal with the boxes, but my OCD won't let me do that. :) I don't have the issue on my XL, but I also store very few photos.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] Bboldajr:
Got my PH1 yesterday and really do like it. Really struggling with APN settings. I have Cellcom (Wisconsin based using Verizon Network), I put in my sim and change network type to global(I’ve tried most of the other options) I can go into Edit Access Point and modify the majority of the info except APN Type...needing to add mms to the “default,dun,supl” or course that is grayed out. Which results in texts going thru but mms photos and group messages sit and spin until erroring out. Doesn't matter if wifi is on or not. Any ideas?

[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] QD2DC:
Did you already have an existing activated sim that you just popped into the essential? I ask cause I know people were having issues with Verizon not properly Activating a new Sim in the essential phone but if you just took your existing one it mostly worked out of the box with little fuss. I've never heard of cellcom or read of anyone using it before. Sorry if this isn't helpful.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] Bboldajr:
Cellcom (Wisconsin carrier) uses Verizon's network and I have an already activated SIM that works with my Cellcom purchased Galaxy S8+. I pop it into the PH1 and it can make calls and send texts but group messages and photos are a spinning mess and a no go. When I call my carrier's help desk the answer I get is "if its not a phone that we have sold in the past or currently sell it will not work on our network" Then I go to the Verizon site and type in the PH1's IMEI number and get the thumbs up that it's completely compatible. It looks like the only way to get the PH1 to fully work is to root it - which I'm not going to do.

If you were able to boot into TWRP, reboot to recovery > wipe everything > flash this firmware : https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=889964283620754602, next flash any custom rom (download any rom from development section), flash Gapps > reboot! Lemme know how it goes. Good luck.

Not worked...problem remains same
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Ghostking1991:
Just download Lazy Flasher .Zip file. and install it via twrp after flashing custom rom .

Your problem will solve for sure.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] TheBambi:
same happens for me since yesterday. I was using a custom rom since some time and without changing anything after reboot I am running into the same trouble.

Have tried to reinstall official miui rom, lock bootloader etc.

I am afraid this might be a hardware failure.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] TheBambi:
Hi,

was able to fix my note 4. Have installed twrp 3.1.1-8.0 on my second note 4 and created a backup of all partitions to sd card. Then I have adjusted the serial number of the stored backup to match the one of the broken note 4. After restoring the whole device with the backup files from the working device the reboots are gone.

But it seems like now IMEI, MAC address and Bluetooth address are invalid and/or not correct. Was able to fix at least IMEI.

Have not identified any further issues so far.

BTW: from inside twrp recovery the phone never rebooted.

Looking for a case for the Kaiser that hopefully arrives tomorrow, but like the idea of a belt lock to ensure it won't fall off belt - like my Wizard did ;-(.

Found this one and wondered if amyone had tried one or had any thoughts?

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI....om=R40&_trksid=m37&satitle=120213309286&fvi=1

Its really cheap so I guess could be worth a try.

EDIT: Hmmm second thoughts, looks like a generic case as no cut out for thumb wheel?

Any other Kaiser specific cases with this type of belt lock?

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyanxo:
If i had to replace my Nexus 5 now, i would probably get a moto g5 plus. I prefer phones about 5", so the Nokia 6 and the p2 are nothing i would consider.

Also(unlike the nokia 6 and the p2) the g5 plus has a snapdragon 625 which is manufactured in 14nm, which results in better power efficiency. The Snapdragon 820 in the Lenovo Z2 is also made in 14nm process.

I would also consider the Xiaomi mi5. It's very light and the ceramic version looks extremely nice. You can find it for the price of a g5 plus in europe, i am not sure about india...
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GopalKaul:
The P2 has 625 also

I replaced my Nexus 5 with an used Pixel XL 128G several days ago, for 2300 CNY, about 350 USD, and the phone is very new though.

BTW, how about Moto X Style? I bought two for both my parents, and I think its a very good phone, despite the official ROM is on 7.0, still you can use a third-party ROM instead.

Hello guys. This ROM is based on Stock MiUi 8.5 Nougat Global stable Rom. Use this ROM if you love MiUi or want to revert back to stock. I can guarantee you smooth performance and good battery life when compared to pure stock firmwares. Please note that since this is an initial build, i have included minimal features. More features and better optimizations will be included in the next builds. So lets start with the actual content.

​

PreRooted

Fully Deodexed

Debloated (Some Bloatware removed)

Zipaligned

Busyboxed

Init.d Support

Su.d Support

Optimized Launcher

Good battery backup

and much more features to come soon in the future builds.....​

​

1) Boot into TWRP recovery using Volume UP button + Power button simultaneously for upto 5 seconds.

2) Wipe your Data, Cache and Dalvik cache first before proceeding.. It may cause a bootloop if you don't.

3) Click on install from main menu and locate the downloaded ROM.

4) Select the ROM, flash and reboot.

5) First boot time may vary from 5-10 mins to load. It will be fast after that. So please be patient.

REMOVED DUE TO SOME ISSUES. WILL BE BACK IN A FEW HOURS. THANKS FOR YOUR COOPERATION

If user can not put any effort then how can you expect them to move flawlessly from stock to custom and vice versa. Less effort doesn't guarantee the full backup, what i mentioned above is tested and without any data loss. But if Helium is doing the same, you or users can stick to it, no issues.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Texas_Ace:
Ok, so I last flashed my trusty old S2 Skyrocket in 2015 with CM11 4.4.4. It has worked great up to now but it is starting to show it's age and it is time for a reinstall.

I am curious if there are any better or newer roms that are stable out now? Or should I just stick to CM11? I looked at the rom section but it was hard to get a good read on the new roms without spending hours I don't have reading hundreds of pages.

The only complaint I have had is that the phone can be a bit slow at times, I didn't really notice this until playing with a newer but lesser speced phone (moto E 2015) with android 5.1 and noticed that it felt snappier and better then mine.

Is this due to 5.1 or the newer hardware?

Any suggestions for a good STABLE rom for 2017 Skyrocket flashing? Or just stick with roms from 2015?

Is anyone else having crashing issues with the MDZ-16-AB when playing h.265 files on Kodi? It usually crashes and displays a solid colour screen after watching 1hr+ of video. The case is quite warm, I assume it's the GPU overheating or something similar.

Netflix 4K works fine, it's only when playing h.265 via Kodi that this happens.

The box is running on stock FW with the Google Apps version of Kodi installed. I've tried SPMC but the same issue occurs.

I have to unplug the box and let it cool down before it starts working again.

Ice had this afew times running h265 and some larger h264 videos. I've stuck a few pennies under the device to raise it off the wood unit and it seems to have helped. Yeah, mine was very hot to the touch when it green screened.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] bigtalker:
Are you using the factory AC power adapter that came with the box, ie 5.2V 2.0A.

Highly unlikely it is overheating considering the monstrous metal heat sink it carries.

Try to move the box to an area that has greater air circulation.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] cam1878:
Yes, it's the factory adapter.

The box sits on top of some furniture below my TV in the living room, aside from putting a fan next to it, it won't get much better circulation. It's pretty open to the room.

I've had it crash a 2nd time shortly after (~10 minutes) the first if I reboot it and resume playing. If I let it sit for an hour to cool it seems to be able to play another hour or so of video. To me that indicates it's a heat issue.

I'm going to try opening the case and putting a small fan next to it, just to verify if that's the cause.
