[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Joselof96:
Dear mods if this is wrong place please by god move it to the correct place

Hello, so I flashed the latest TWRP recovery to my phone but it gave me errors so went back and forth to stock firmware just to try to get it work.

so Finally I flashed an older TWRP recovery through Odin. after that my phone stopped going into recovery, so I tried to flash back to the latest version of TWRP through Odin. but this time I failed.

so I tried to do what I did earlier and tried to flash stock firmware but no Odin just gives me an instant fail when trying to flash back to stock.

and my phone now only boots into download mode but its useless as it stopped working on flashing the stock firmware...

and when not entering download mode its freezes on Samsung s8+ screen and wont go into recovery.

Is it a hardware failure maybe?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Joselof96:
should also add I'm now at this wery moment downloading another firmware to see if I am able to flash that firmware on to this device, even tried using PIT files without a luck :/
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Shuuin:
Okay. I would recommend to restore back to stock before anything. Do that using smart switch from Samsung.

Phone needs to be in download mode and then you open smart switch and click on more. Then choose Emergency Software and Initialization. Now click on the*device Initialization*tab.

You'll need your s/n number which can be found on the back of your phone and you'll need build number.

Which is:

SM-G950F

or

SM-G955F for plus model
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Joselof96:
Sweet I am trying it right now and going to give feedback if it works

so any clue why TWRP gives me verification failed no matter what I trY, it litterly allways ends upp telling me to factory reset my phone
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Joselof96:
so here we go
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Joselof96:
it ended up as a fail saying that the device is not supported, im ****ed
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Shuuin:
It keeps saying that, everytime you try to restore using smart switch ?

Okay if.

Then, when you boot into Download mode. Reboot into download mode again, just fast.

With that i mean, hold ( Power, volume-down, bixby ) enter download mode, when youre in download mode, repeat (power, volume-down and bixby) and enter download mode.

That fixed my problem i had once, where it said fail with everything i tried to transfor with odin and with smart swtich.

Hope you understand.

Sorry, late reply. work

[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] sreeku:
Hi,

This is related to a previous thread where internal memory gets full, which was solved temporarily.

https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/help/rr5-8-4-athene-internal-memory-filled-t3678840

I am using

[ROM][OFFICIAL] Resurrection Remix v5.8.5 [7.1.2_r29][XT16xx][athene] + Magisk + ElementalX on Moto G4 Plus with 128 GB SD card as adopted storage.

The internal memory was getting full within a week, and with the help of suggestions received, I located that /data/power_supply_logger had .csv log files which were 20GB+ in size. So I deleted them and solved the problem at the time.

Then it repeated in a week I had the same issue. the log files grow about 2 MB every minute. I removed write permissions to the folder and deleted the file.

I noticed that since I removed the permissions to write, the battery life really got longer and the phone also charges much quickly now. Some users pointed out that battery was charging slowly in RR - I faced that problem too and it looks like has gone away. I would like to make it a bit cleaner - a process making an attempt to write every minute and failing is got a good work around.

Using AppsSD I found that /system/bin/batt_health running as mot_pwric user is attempting to write every minute and now that the permission is removed the attempt is failing.

Is there a way I can disable this process - it is not listed in Apps or System apps.

Or if anyone knows how to disable logging by batt_health, that would be better.

Thanks

Sreekumar
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] strongst:
Maybe some of your apps are logging there?! I have this folder too, but empty.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] sreeku:
/system/bin/batt_health running as mot_pwric user is the process logging it. How to disable this process - or if it is spawned by an app, how to locate the parent app.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] strongst:
My suggestion: Just install the rom and gapps mini/pico or beans mini and see if it logs again. If not: install ONE of your 3rd party apps, see if it happens again. If not, install the next one and so on.

Maybe you have switched something on in Rom settings?
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] DgnrtnX:
I too have this folder and is showing 1.01mb in size.

I cut out read acces to batt_health and it seems nothing has changed.

Also i search folders for battery stats and all are nrml to me.

All of them combined also im not getting more than 10+mbs.

Idk what u have been using or any particular reason for you

I'll suggest clean flash your rom. Use verified gapps and restore backup of apps only and not data. If and if only you need that data restore it.

Use device for 3 to 4 days and see if problem exist.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] sreeku:
OK. I will try these suggestions and see if goes away.

New Unlimited Mobile Browsing Plans

Rogers and Fido have finally released their own version of an Unlimited Mobile Browsing plan to compete with Telus and Bell. Starting today, Tuesday February 5th, 2008, Rogers and Fido will be offering a $7 Unlimited Mobile Browsing plan and a $20 Value Pack (that includes Unlimited Mobile Browsing). As with Telus' $15 and Bell's $7 plans, some restrictions apply.

So What Are The Restrictions?

The plans will be restricted to Rogers or Fido branded phones/devices (respectively) that are non-PDA, non-Blackberry, non-Windows Mobile, and non-PC card devices. This means that the plan DOES NOT work for unlocked phones, tethering, smartphones, PDAs, Blackberrys, etc. Furthermore, you must use the built-in browser of your Rogers or Fido branded phone (i.e. third party applications will NOT work).

How Is This Enforced?

This is enforced by detecting the IMEI of your phone (each time you turn on/use your phone, your IMEI is transmitted to Rogers/Fido). This allows Rogers/Fido to see whether the phone you are using is a Rogers or Fido (respectively) branded handset and whether it is a Windows Mobile, PC-Card, Blackberry, or PDA device.

What Is An IMEI Number?

IMEI stands for International Mobile Equipment Identity. An IMEI number is a unique 15 digit number that identifies your GSM/UMTS/HSDPA handset. You can check the IMEI number of your handset by typing *#06# into your handset. If you want to find out more about your IMEI number, you can get it analyzed here: http://www.numberingplans.com/?page=analysis&sub=imeinr.

What Happens If I Use A Restricted Handset Or Device?

You will be charged the pay per use rate of $0.05/KB when you use a device or program listed in the restrictions section above.

What About Using A Rogers/Fido Branded Handset For Tethering?

You will be charged the pay per use rate of $0.05/KB when you a Rogers/Fido branded handset for tethering purposes.

How About Rogers/Fido Branded Handsets That Have Been Unlocked Or Debranded?

As long as the device/handset is not a PC-card, smartphone, blackberry, etc. (see restrictions above), the Unlimited Mobile Browsing plan will still work on your unlocked or debranded handset. This is because unlocking and debranding a Rogers/Fido phone does not change the IMEI of your handset.

Where Can I Get More Info About The Plans?

Rogers $7 Plan: http://www.rogers.com/web/content/wi...mobile#sta rt

Rogers $20 Value Pack: http://www.rogers.com/web/content/wi...=20_comm#start

Fido $7 Plan: http://fido.ca/portal/en/domore/sdp_options.shtml

Fido $20 Value Pack: http://fido.ca/portal/en/packages/value_packs.shtml
[Networking] galkurn:
For those that are wondering, here is the latest Rogers sales bulletin on this issue:

Customers may notice that certain usage, which is not included under the $7 Unlimited On-Device Mobile Internet Browsing Plan, may not be charged in February. Please assure customers that all usage that is not included under the plan or used on devices which are not eligible will be charged starting in March with enhanced system functionality.
[Networking] galkurn:
Has anyone purchased this plan? I am sad to mention that I upgraded before checking this info I posted found at: http://www.redflagdeals.com and just relized that by renewing my $20 comunicate package from "5mb" to this "unlimited" plan they will start charging me $0.05/kb for usage on my "unlocked, non-rogers, smartphone" (not to mention that they will also be charging for 3rd party apps such as Google maps etc).

If I knew it would not be compatable and they can track the IMEI's and charge me $0.05/kb I would reconsider "upgrading" and settle for the 5mb non IMEI monitored plan. The worst part about it is Rogers is no longer offering the $20 comunicate pack with the 5mb so I am stuck with the "new" one. If you were thinking about upgrading I suggest you do your research first so you don't get screwed on your next invoice when charged per kb.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Assindius:
Hi!I am thinking about buying the S8 or Note 8,but Note is very expensive and a bit too big. Otherwise I like its' features. Are there ported Note 8 ROMs with working Screen Off Memo?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Zerotwistknife7:
I've tried searching on this and couldn't really find any answers. So I have a rooted VS995 (Verizon) and I have to change my network mode in order to get 4G data, but can not receive calls or texts.

[Settings > Mobile networks > System Select > Network Mode]

Here are the results I get.

Global - I get 3G data and I can call and text

LTE/CDMA - I get 3G data and I can call and text

LTE/GSM/UMTS - I get 4G LTE data, but can NOT send or receive calls and texts. Incoming calls go straight to voicemail, calls out fail with a no network detected and texts just say failed to send.

I should add that this all started a few weeks ago when I was flashing a few different roms one day to see which one I liked. My phone worked normally before I flashed a rom (can't remember which one) and now it doesn't matter which rom I flash, I still get this issue. I've been dealing with this for weeks and it's gotten really annoying.

I am DirtySanta Rooted, I have tried installing several different kernels and several different roms with no success. Is there something I am missing? Is there a Radio file or something that I need to flash?

I am even contemplating unrooting, going back to stock and then attempting to re-root, but I fear that I might have to flash a newer OEM that will disable the root method.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

EDIT: It's late, I'm frustrated and I just realized that this thread is probably supposed to be in Questions and Answers section. If a moderator could move it, that would be great.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] rcicu:
Were you able to correct this?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Zerotwistknife7:
Sorry for the late response, I was away this weekend.

I ended up flashing just about every rom and kernel I could find and now somehow it seems that it is now working as intended.

Hello,

I have a Doogee Y6 Max, on Doogee's website they say the phone has HiFi module but is there really a way to know if it's the turth ? Because after hours of searching I still didn't find anythibg..
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] Kawaisa:
I was able to get my hands on the new ZeroLemon case for the Samsung Note 8 and my impressions of the case are quite positive.

The case is available on Amazon.

https://www.amazon.com/ZeroLemon-SlimPower-Extended-Charging-Portable/dp/B00BYEMNA6

'Note' this is the 5500 mah version of the battery case, so if you're looking for a little bit more than that then wait a little longer for the 10,000 mah version. I was told the 10k version would be available very soon.

Having owned the ZeroLemon 6300mah extended battery case for the Samsung S8+, I am happy that they have made adjustments to the design of this 5500mah case. In the S8+ version, the battery could be separated from the outer TPU shell, which made the whole battery case a bit clunkier. It also added a large plastic portion to the bottom of the case, which made the S8+ even longer.

ZeroLemon has gone with a single piece design for the Note 8 5500 mah case, and I am happy for this decision. The battery case for the Note 8 is very manageable. Although it adds bulk, it's not a Zack Morris phone, in other words, it's not a brick. It's closer to what you would expect a Mophie battery case to look like in terms of sleekness and design. It is a hard rubber texture and it feels solid in the hand, with just enough grip.

The headphone port opening is easily accessible for most 3.5mm jacks I've tried and it doesn't require an adapter. The speaker cutout as well as the S-pen cutout are precise and there is no issue with accessing them.

Zerolemon advertises the battery case as one that provides up to 115% more battery life. I found this claim to be reasonable as I found that the battery case easily gave me a full charge.

The cutout on the back is recessed because of the added thickness. I have had no problems reaching the fingerprint sensor, but it is something to keep in mind when getting an extended battery case.

While QI wireless charging does not work with this case on, fast wired charging through the battery case does work. In other words, the Note 8 will work with fast charge while in the battery case when connected to a fast charger, but the battery case itself will not fast charge the Note 8. Syncing and data transfer also works through the case.

For those who enjoy laying their phones on their screens, one issue I would raise about this case is that there is no front lip to protect your screen. This issue is not exclusive to this battery case as most that I've encountered also do not have much of a protective lip. This is something I hope more manufacturers would take into account.

All in all, I absolutely have no issues with recommending this battery case as it meets my expectations in terms of pocketability and functionality.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] Notasaurus:
How accurate did you find the indicator on the back of the phone to be? I purchased a different one from Amazon before the zero lemon became available and the White and Green lights went really fast where the Blue stayed on for better than 54% of the charge cycle. The red was also very short when I went to run it down lower. Wondering if the Zerolemon is actually better quality or just the same case with their logo printed on the back.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] Dude2:
Thanks for the review. I was really wondering about the pocketablity as well. What screen protector did you say you used in combination with the battery case?

Also, how does the S pen do when taking it out of it's slot?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] phistyle:
I'm willing to bet that all of the battery cases are the same just with different branding.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] 白い熊:
I've inspected all of them closely online—they all look like one identical generic Chinese, only rebranded.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] Dude2:
Did you have a screen protector on the front glass? If so which one?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] phistyle:
looks like there's a new battery case for the note 8 that has 6500 mah capacity: https://www.amazon.com/Battery-Himi...08819506&sr=1-13&keywords=note+8+battery+case
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] Dude2:
Does anyone know how thick this battery is vs. the Zerolemon battery?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] Ryano89:
Price. And the fact that I do not believe that Mophie has released their products yet.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] LameMonster82:
Hello I was wondering why we can't record 1080p 120fps or 720p 240fps. Our phones can record 4K with no problem and 4K is exactly 4 times bigger than 1080p by that logic we should be able to record 1080p 120fps and 720p 240fps. Is it really the sensor that holds us back or software limitations?
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] derulf:
interesting thought, i am afrait that is because of binarys for hardwaredrivers that are not open source.

I recorded with Open Camera and even that its says that is recording at 60fps actualy is 30. Played both samples on PC side-by-side and checked with mediainfo, 30 fps on booth.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] nature boy:
Yes, would be nice to have 60 fps@1080, don't think 120 fps is possible with the hardware.

Use mediainfo to confirm it's 60 fps. Open camera reports 60 fps but it's not actually 60 fps, just 30.

I'm using MOKEE rom and I see a noticeable difference.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] nature boy:
Haven't tried that rom, but I haven't seen any reports of 60 fps working.

I've seen pseudo-60fps with Open Camera on other devices, but it's not 60fps on Media Info. Not sure the reason why
[Moto E4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] androcado:
Update: This only applies to the prepaid 4G devices as part of Verizon's policy. See post #2 for details.

If you intend to unlock your device, you may wish to avoid purchasing this model because Motorola will not give up the unlock key for some reason. I purchased the device based on people unlocking other models without realizing this model is locked. The full device info for SKU XT1774 is here in case you want to check. This is the Qualcomm Snapdragon one.

[IMG="Moto E4 Plus US Verizon Qualcomm Snapdragon OEM unlock key denied"]https://i.imgur.com/4FM9KDt.png[/IMG]

Does anyone know if Verizon will unlock OEM if requested?
[Moto E4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] androcado:
Update: I found Verizon's policy applied to this device. It turns out they will provide unlocking instructions once the following criteria are met:

The amount specified for this model was only $50 which currently amounts to one or two months of prepaid service depending on the plan you are on. I will follow these instructions and update to confirm.

Does this mean anyone who wants to unlock their bootloader should steer clear of this model? This is a bummer.
[Moto E4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] sd_shadow:
stay clear of any Version sold by Verizon
[Moto E4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] androcado:
This is such a bummer. I can't believe companies still do this. I purchased the hardware and I want to be able to use it. There has to be some way around it.
[Moto E4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] sd_shadow:
you can send it to Justin Case, to see if he can unlock the bootloader, but it could get bricked in the process.

I believe unlocking on Snapdragon models relied on this initroot vulnerability which has been patched since May, 2017.
[Moto E4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] androcado:
You're looking at the same Snapdragon 427 chipset. However, I can not say as to whether Motorola will provide the unlock keys on this model or if it even needs a key.

[Moto E4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] glockman4519:
I always purchase the device from Motorola (or the manufacturer). If done this way you know that the device will be able to get an unlock code (bootloader unlocking). Plus the device comes ready to run on any US carrier (or any carrier US or Otherwise) right out of the box. I know it costs more to do it this way (about$60.00 to$70.00 for the 32GB model) than the eBay option, but again, it's worth the cost knowing that you will have no issues. Lately, more and more carriers have been locking down their device bootloaders and I don't see it getting any better for development unless you go the route of bypassing the carriers all together. Luckily there are still manufacturers like Motorola/Lenovo and OnePlus that still support development.

[Moto E4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] bcrichster:
Big question: is it connected to any Carrier for service yet? If so, you'll have to wait until your carrier allows it. If you're not connected to any Carrier yet via data/cell connection or ya have a new/unused device, just remove the SIM & flash one of our custom ROMs before it connects to any data, then insert desired Carrier Sim after ROM flash and boot.. It should provision nicely if you have it Allocated to the account & Carrier you wish to use

---------- Post added at 11:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:01 PM ----------

Basically take a new device, remove Sim, unlock bootloader, flash TWRP & custom ROM, insert desired Sim, boot and give it time to provision & connect. Most of my work is in Android Forums tho.. Here: https://androidforums.com/threads/moto-e-4-plus-owens-all-things-root-guide.1259898/
