[General Questions and Answers] nickpaokgrq:
Its general here so i think i can ask this kind of things so ,I m an IT guy that has run out of ideas. I would like to ask you some questions about a (probably hardware realted) problem that i have. All started suddenly , from one day to another all usb ports, camera and bluetooth stoped working. I dont really care about the bluetooth and the camera, the only thing i care about are the usb ports. I 've checked them with a multimeter (only the pins that provide power) and the strange thing is that they do provide power. If i connect something like a usb flash drive , the led flashes (stays on , doesnt flickers) but nothing happens. I am sure that's not a drivers problem because the laptop doesnt even recognize them in UEFI nor CSM. My UEFI does not have an option to completely disable usb ports, only to change from usb 2 to 3 (no change at all). I m sure it's now a power problem, i ve reseted the bios even by the motherboard jumper.So the question is , what it may be? is it a motherboard malfuction ? Can it be fixed? Also , is there any possibility that for example the camera is faulty , or the camera cable , and shortcutting something? (i mean if i disconnect the camera and the bluetooth, is there any possibility that it will be fixed? ) thanks in advance.

p.s. also on the motherboard there isnt anything strange like a blown up resistor or something.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Javilafuga:
Hello everyone.

First of all to introduce myself, my name is Javilafuga and I am a beginner in terms of knowledge in this type of forums, so I come to ask for your help.

This week I received my android radio for the car, the features of it are as follows:

- Model No.: A-MEDIA AUTO (1024 x 600 s)

- Android version: 6.0.1

- Android Security Patch Level: October 1, 2016

- Kernel version: 3.10.0 | rocky @ hctr930 # 1049 | Tue Jul 18 13:30:17 CST 2017

- Build number: px5-userdebug 6.0.1 MXC89L user.hct.20170721.213230 test-keys

- MCU version: MTCD_KGL_V2.54_2

- Serial No .: H003PKC120029000F

- CPU: 8 core 64-bit CPU Coretex-A 53 @ 1.5G

- Memory: 2000 MB

The issue is that just after turning it on I saw that everything was fine until I wanted to put the wifi and the bluetooth, the wifi does not search for networks and the bluetooth does not find devices.

I thought it would be a software issue, I put myself in recovery mode did wipe data and wipe cache, but this did not solve anything.

Finally I thought that it could be said rom, some failure of the same which makes the wifi and bluetooth not work. With which I find myself in the situation of changing the rom and I have no idea to do it, I have seen many roms that I do not know if they are compatible with my android radio.

I have also downloaded some rom that I do not know if compatible with my android radio and when trying to install it I got this message:

- E: Do not mach mount / mnt / external_sd

- - Update rkimage ...

- Installation rkimage start.

- Finding update package ...

- --- UPDATE RKIMAGE ---

- Find and check firmware ...

- E: Do not match mount / mnt / external_sd

- E: Do not match mount / mnt / external_sd

- E: Can't open /mnt/external_sd/update.img

- Can not find firmware image or invalid image

- Update rkimage complete.

- Installation rkimage aborted.

I ask you for help explaining to me the steps that must be followed to get a rom installed on my android radio and that android versions would be worth to me, to see if this is the way of wifi and bluetooth.

Thank you very much, I hope your help.

hi guys,

so the nexus 6p i had got the oreo ota update and after a couple of day it restarted and since then stuck on google logo(bootloop).

it only goes to fastboot mode,

download mode is disabled,

recovery is not there of any kind, meaning i cant boot to recovery mode.

every things gone on it can i do something to get it back, oem unlocking was not turned on in it. developer option was never turned on. bootloader is also locked.

i am in a big trouble guys please help me if there is a way.

Tried factory reset and reboot?

as i mentioned there is no recovery mode on it. its red and i cant boot to it. it returns back to fast boot mode dude
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tropical cactus:
You can select factory reset by pressing the volume button . Factory reset will come up. Select by pressing power button and press again to wipe.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alijaved154:
in fastboot only the options are:

start

barcodes

recovery

bootloader

I have factory reset as an option. Not sure why you don't.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tropical cactus:
Try reboot bootloader and scroll through options again.

From fastboot can anything be pushed/flashed like a previous actually functional firmware? Is there other specific software to do so? Only got my hands on the defective non functional device today but I'm planning and scheming a fix if possible.

One thing is really interesting. Why only after this update???? Why not after update from 6 to 7 then 7 to 7.1 and after 7.1 to 8.0. I think Google or Huawei is cheating us and forcing us to buy Google pixel.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lantioch:
I also have this issue (I'm using a nexus 5x, but this thread is the closest to my issue I've found), but it came incrementally. First, I started getting reboots every 20m or so, while doing normal phone things (reading, mostly). Then it started getting into bootloops that were 2-3 boots long, and would then work normally for the 20m mentioned above. I tried a factory reset, but it just got worse, and now either reboots on the Google logo or during the Android animation. My fastboot menu only has the regular "Start" as green. The only other options are Restart Bootloader, in red, and Recovery mode, also in red. Power off is there, obviously, but that's it. It started happening yesterday, and worsened to its current point within only a few hours.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wantowan2:
Guys! lol

1. Dev options in ROM is same old. Settings/about and tap build 10 times to see count down to developer. Back to settings. In there for OEM unlock

2. Factory reset can be done any number of ways.

a. In ROM. Settings/backup and reset/factory reset.

b. From anywhere, hold power+volume down until you see the bootloader. There are 2 possible screens in there. One of them has factory reset. Beware! From here it will likely wipe your sdcard!

c. From recovery. You can get there from bootloader. You can also flash an up to date recovery image from bootloader.

The rest of your recovery process should be provided by the ROM thread by which you will get your choice of ROM.

Make sure you have access to a PC with adb. You will likely need to flash a vendor image
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vil-2:
My device is only recognized in fastboot mode. No ADB, no recovery. Tried to uninstall and manually install latest USB drivers, it didn't work. My Nexus is now just stucked in a bootloop. I even tried to flash factory images to no avail. Really don't know what to do...

FYI I have no screen in bootloader allowing me to factory reset: only Start/Reboot/Reboot bootloader/Barcodes, as others stated above.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Daandofreak:
Can you try this please.

Extract bootloader from factory image and while in fastboot mode use following command.

Fastboot flash bootloader (extracted bootloader file)

After this fastboot reboot bootloader.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vil-2:
Thanks, but it didn't work. It just flashed the file, rebooted the phone in bootloader, but it's still stucked, no way of booting into recovery or normal boot.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vitorzb:
same here

Did anyone find a solution?

My phone just started having the same problem. (only fast boot and no option to factory reset).
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g511:
From the symptoms stated, it would seem like aforementioned devices have fallen victims of the infamous BLOD of the N6P.

If you have an unlocked bootloader, you could try flashing a boot image that disables the BIG CPU cluster, which sometimes fixes the problem. Detailed instructions, along with the images can be found here.

If your bootloader is locked, you need to find a way to unlock it. This is a good time to start praying to whatever god or deity you may believe in. Methods to get the device to *temporarily* boot up, and stay functioning long enough to enable OEM unlocking in Dev settings can also be found on the previous link.

You are encouraged to fully read the article before trying anything.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vitorzb:
the fix worked for me

Thanks for directing me to the above-mentioned fix.

It did work for me and since I'm not using the phone for games I can barely noticed the lag.

For those who haven't tried yet and like me have no warranty anymore, you should give it a try because it is working for most people and it even accepts root and custom roms.

In short, what I did was:

1. used the hairdryer on the back of the phone between fingerprint sensor and camera for 2-5min. (it didn't work at the first try. But on the second try it did :victory:)

2. phone booted normally. I went straight to dev tab to enable OEM unlock and USB debugging

3. Backed up some stuff to google drive and some apps

4. powered off, then entered fastboot

5. via adb I unlocked phone then installed stock Oreo 8.0

6. heated up the phone with the hairdryer again to make sure the oreo 8.0 was working. When to dev tab to re-enable USB debugging

7. powered off, back to fastboot

8. followed the link above (via adb flashed the modified image and then flashed twrp)

9. rebooted phone and no more bootloop

10. rebooted then to twrp and installed the EX kernel

11. still in twrp, I wiped and formatted data

12. rebooted and set up phone

Two days using without any issue so far.

Btw, this link (https://www.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p-bootloop-fix/) gives a step by step on how to apply the fix.

So I decided to resurrect my N7 from the dead. Just tossed it on the charger, been 5 minutes or so and I'm not getting the normal "powered off" charging screen. Is the thing just so dead that it can't do it, or is the battery just shot?

[Samsung Gear S3] trident600:
I noticed that the PIN pad is really small and sometimes I enter the wrong PIN as I have to be really careful, the digits are so close together... I wished they would've put BIG digits all along the edges of the screen just like the apps appear, it would've maximized the real estate and made usability better...

I wished there would've been a fingerprint reader embedded in the strap on the side, that would've been fantastic.

Edit - Just realized that I can enter my PIN ahead of time and as long as the watch does not detect it's been off my wrist it will not ask for the PIN again...that is awesome!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bossviper:
I have an unlocked Lenovo Golden Warrior Note 8/A936 2 gb ram dual sim phone. Its also rooted. In my country there are 2 network providers. I have a SIM for both. The phone recognizes both of the sim cards and even labels them by their network name but only picks up the service for one of the network providers. Ive made sure both sims are good. They both work fine in my Samsung Galaxy Note 4. Trying to figure out what could be wrong with the Lenovo as it won't pick up any service for that SIM card.

Ive tried:

both sim slots and still only one recognized.

removing the working one and the other still wont find service

Factory resetting

Manually/Automatically finding the network. Manual search doesnt find the ine i want to find

Switching from 2g,3g,4g preferred types

Any idea what could be wrong?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muckelmaus:
wrong lte/4g channel

Maybe your provider uses a for the handy not usable channel and the sim is a lte/4g only! So the device doesn'T recognize the sim, Iguess. I'm sorry, bad luck
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ThugEsquire:
Here's the upshot to anyone considering the LG V30, who has the Galaxy S8 already:

Update 10/19/17: Here's the video proof -- this one's for [MENTION=529092]Bootup[/MENTION] : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pG4REq6MmII

Man, I wanted to love the V30. It was supposed to be the better, snappier cousin of the S8. But I'm going to return it, and stick with the S8, which I don't love. I wanted to share a few of my observations, in case anyone else is considering a similar upgrade. Disclaimer: I usually prefer stock Android, but switched to Samsung after the Nexus 6. Imho Google hasn't released a good phone since the Nexus 5X and that's sad.

First, the screen quality on the S8 is much better than the V30's, especially at lower brightness levels. Looking at the V30 on auto-brightness settings, it always looked washed out compared to the S8. Even the V30's different color settings didn't help. And to be clear, it's not a matter of the V30 looking more "true to life" -- the screen colors just looked washed out, especially at indoor brightness levels. Counterpoint: You might not notice if you are coming from a non-Samsung phone like the OnePlus 3T or 5.

Second, the scrolling lag on the V30 was atrocious. And I say this coming from an S8 where scrolling lag is noticeable. The two apps where I noticed it the most were Instagram and Sync (for Reddit). Vertical scrolling, side scrolling, scrolling upside down, all of it was laggy as hell. I thought LG's UI was supposed to be more responsive? I compared the two side by side, and the V30 made the S8 look *buttery* smooth. Didn't make any sense. Super disappointed in this aspect of the experience.

Third, the V30 is just overall too big to be used with one hand. As one example, the volume button placement is way too high on the phone to adjust with one hand. And I have big hands. Ugh. The V30's placement of the fingerprint reader is VASTLY superior than the S8's... but that's kind of it.

Finally, the overall UX design on the LG V30's default skin feels cheap. This includes the default System UI theme, system apps, and their icons. Compared to the S8, the V30's UI is just bland and retro-looking. I immediately missed the contemporary design of the S8's system UI buttons. I searched for LG V30 themes that could help, and none of them fixed the icons problem. The dialer app especially was just hideous compared to the Samsung dialer. And for both, I wish I could replace them with the Google dialer, but they don't let you do a *true* and *full* dialer replacement.

So I'll be sticking with my S8, and probably holding out until the S9 rolls around. **** man. Not happy about this at all.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] CHH2:
I've got zero scroll lag in Instagram, G+, Chrome... etc. As for the screen looking washed out compared to Samsung, it's generally well known that Samsung goes full tilt on the punchy cartoonish colors. First thing I always had to do was set my Samsungs to their mildest display setting. I even had to back the V30 off just a tad. As for the default LG skin, I replace it out of the box with the Google Now launcher, the beauty of Android no matter which manufacturer you're using.

Lastly, are you sure you have big hands? My Nexus 6 and LG V20 felt fine. The V30 feels small in comparison. It feels closer to my work iPhone 6s in size than it does to my V20.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] mrkoven:
I switched to V30 from S8+ for one reason only, the HiFi DAC. S8 (non Exynos) headphone jack sound quality is mediocre at best, couldn't stand it anymore.

V30 sound quality is incredible. Only thing I miss so far is Samsung Pay.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] steve841:
Don’t agree with OP.

Quite content with my V30 so far. No lag, slimmer than my Nexus 6. Anything else is subjective
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] sn0warmy:
This is now the 4th mention I've seen of the V30 having noticably laggy scrolling. Making me nervous for my purchase.

Curious to see videos of this supposed lag.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ThugEsquire:
To answer the question above, the Nexus 6 was pretty big but didn't FEEL too big. This V30 however does... strangely. Go figure.

Quick update after using the V30 a bit more:

1. The video camera features on the V30 are really swell, clearly superior to the S8. If I shot a lot of video and didn't care about the other stuff like ugly UI and laggy scrolling, this could sell the phone.

2. The V30 does NOT support Kevo deadbolts, even though it has BLE. Wtf? This ALONE is a deal-breaker. For SEO: the LG V30 does not work with Kevo deadbolts by Kwikset.

3. Quad DAC is a nice feature, and it seems to be unique in its class. But I don't listen to headphones very much, and it has no effect on the phone's built-in speaker.

4. I compared the scrolling side by side and the lag is NOTICEABLY bad on the LG V30. To show it off I'd need a THIRD camera though.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Grtkbrandon:
I'm surprised to hear that you were experience scroll lag on your S8. I have an S7 Edge and never experience scroll lag, and I use Instagram and Sync for Reddit.

I actually find the V30's size to be great. Compared to my S7 Edge, the proportions are almost identical. It's nice going for more screen real estate without adding on extra bulk.

One of my biggest concerns with upgrading is the quality of the screen and the overall build quality. Going from my S7 Edge, nothing jumped out at me about the screen, but the V30 feels cheaper in hand. Probably because of how light it is and that awful chrome band around the edge.
