[Infinix HOT 2] Ayieko:
Sorry for the trouble. I have had an almost similar experience and even right now I still have NRAM error but it does not bother me much as Wifi and SIM cards are working fine except, I can not access the SIM tool kit ( For MPESA, Safaricom, or Airtel menu) when I have two SIM cards inserted, I have to remove one. The SIM Tool Kit has nothing to do with the NVRAM though, must be LineageOS 14.1 problem.

I am going to combine a reply for this post and for your post here for the NVRAM and SIM card error.

Here are the steps.

PART 1 Getting a stable ROM

First and foremost, let's get your phone stable. To do this, you are going to flash Lollipop ( yes, android 5). Specifically you need the official LL by Infinix and not Android one, just the Infinix version. I will explain why. When flashing this ROM, choose FORMAT+DOWNLOAD in sp flash tool.

PART 2 Fixing the SIM card

Sometimes, your IMEI gets corrupted when you flash ROMs. Some ROMs replace your original IMEI altogether with a new one especially if you Choose Format and Download. You may also find that your phone displays just one IMEI and not two as it was doing before. Check your IMEI and see if they match the two written on the battery compartment. If they are not matching or just one is displayed, you will need SN Writer Tool ( used v1.0.1532) to fix this . You will use this tool to write proper IMEI for your phone. You will copy the two IMEI written on the battery compartment of your phone. Here is where you need the official Lollipop by infinix. Somehow, the Android one version can not be booted into META MODE by SN Writer tool and that is why we need LL. This LL version also has no problem booting into recovery using the vol.+power keys like the Marshmallow Android one version. Google how to use the SN tool to write IMEI and download it. Remember to choose Dual SIM Card so that it allows you to insert both IMEIs 1 and 2. This tool can also be used to fix NVRAM error. Boot your phone and see if everything is OK.

PART 3 Upgrade

Flash TWRP 3( the latest version the better) for infinix hot 2( Please make sure its fo infinix hot 2 otherwise flashing ROMs will be trouble). Use the scatter file for INFINIX not for Android one. Try these posted in XDA.

Boot into Recovery immediately after flashing TWRP and allow it to modify system when it prompts ( do not boot into system before you boot into recovery after flashing TWRP otherwise it will be replaced by the stock recovery).

Follow the steps for flashing Lineage OS and GAPPs. You are going directly from android LL ( Stock infinix) to N ( Lineage OS) and skip MM (Android one). Why? If you flash Android One using SP flash tool, it will warn you that you need to FORMAT and DOWNLOAD the ROM, if you do FORMAT with SP flash Tool, you will be back to square one with NRAM error and everything.

I am not a developer and have no experience in programming whatsoever. This guide is from my personal experience with infinix hot 2. I am not responsible if the steps brick your phone. Wish you luck and feel free to ask further questions.:). Report back if successful to help others.
[Infinix HOT 2] Scarkinyua:
This is some expansive explanation. Thank yo for taking your time on this. Will really help when am flashing the ROM. Thank you bro. :good:

[Infinix HOT 2] Ayieko:
Have you also tried clearing cache, dalvik cache and user data?
[Infinix HOT 2] epicinfinity1:
Hi, i use the v1.0 and it's very smooth. But split screen is not available here. Is it a bug? Or it's turned off by the developer?

Hello,

Flashed a vietnamese ROM and later wiped and flashed another ROM but my startup language is Vietnamese when I first setup and this local "holidays of Vietnam" won't go away. Wiped calendar data on both calendars and and still sticks. Any ideas? Do I have to flash my firmware from UK again? Thanks

This isn't an issue with the ROM, this is an issue with your google account at this point. I would review the settings you have on google.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Tinkerer_:
The news on the Wi-Fi Krack Attack says it was discovered a few months ago, but an Android patch won't come until November 2017 security update?

So the V30 is launching with this huge Wi-Fi security vulnerability, probably not to be patched for several months or more (if ever)?

That might be enough to give many potential buyers pause, waiting on the patch. If so, discounts might ramp sooner and steeper.

Anybody have any info to offer regarding V30 and Krack Attack?

TIA...
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] steve841:
Its a lot more hype and hysteria than anything .... IMO

Unless you go door to door visiting wifi services, it's nothing to lose sleep over.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] CHH2:
Good grief dude. This vulnerability exists on every single phone that's got Android 6 or higher (plus just about every device, not even just phones) which means every single phone launched in the past two years. So if you bought an Android phone since then (or anything that connects to wifi for that matter), you're already vulnerable and have been for a while. I'll reiterate, every device that connects via wifi is vulnerable. All of them.

But there's really great news. The V30. It's a cellphone. It has cellular data radios built in. In fact, my data speeds across my cell network are faster than across any wifi point I connect to. Which is to say, I have zero reason to connect my phone to a wifi point.

If you are using a laptop, desktop, or whatever, you have more reason to worry about those.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Tinkerer_:
Thanks for more "ready-fire-aim" snark, CHH2.

The point is this: Since we all know that most existing Android phones are vulnerable to Krack, it might occur to (some of) us that we should look to our next new phone to NOT have this vulnerability.

Especially given the abysmal (to nonexistent) performance of security updates provision for most phones after the sale. (Except for Apple, Google, Samsung... am I missing any? LG sux at this too, correct?)

And further, because rooting makes OTAs (including those to get security patches) a time-consuming hassle with added risk, after the sale.

Thanks in advance to any who can offer info about the original question.

...
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Bootup:
Really?

Good grief...

Really?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Tinkerer_:
Maybe. Unless there are "script kiddy" youth nearby with too much idle time and parents buying them too many toys, who like to hack for entertainment.

I think these responses are instructive, about the sort of blasé attitude towards SW/HW faults in general, and security in particular, that lead to nontrivial system flaws and security vulnerabilities like this in the first place.

Also, note that it took a researcher in Belgium, not the US, to discover this defect. Coincidence? (Let's dispense with cute euphemisms like "bug", and call them what they are: Faults, and defects.)

Still hoping for useful info about the issue itself. (How many "good grief"s does it take? :)

...
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] CHH2:
Hey! Look at this! Both my V20 and V30 have the BlueBorne patch! So, no, they do not suck at this. And that's even having to go through the carrier gateway too. And yes, I already offered to information about the original question but just for giggles....

Risking a hand slap from a mod, you're just an attention whore. Just Google the information like the rest of us did and you'll see why we're all "blase". And what exactly are you trying to infer that it took Belgians to discover this defect? There are labs, developers, companies, and testers around the world constantly poking and prodding at this stuff looking for the next hole because there will always be a next hole. Just like your home, internet security is an illusion, especially when you are connecting to wi-fi. With or without this attack, wi-fi is problematic. And that's why some of us aren't allowed to connect our work computers to wi-fi networks unless they are known entities.

You're too busy running around exclaiming the sky is falling while most of us already know not to stand under certain parts of the sky because that's not the sky falling, that's bird droppings.

Oh, and faults and defects are called bugs in software. That's just how we do things on the software side of things. (And yes, I deal with software and hardware on a daily basis for work.)
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Tinkerer_:
I think I understand.

The V30 will have this defect (security vulnerability affecting all wifi) for a lonnng time after launch. Asking about the vulnerability in an XDA forum brings "good grief" and hostile ad hominem in response, rather than relevant info about the issue itself. Textbook hubristic defensiveness.

Maybe the hubristic culture that tries to make everyone think SW defects and security vulnerabilities are OK, is getting a boost from the string of massive security breaches recently, like Equifax and OPM. Who cares about security and privacy, when everything is pwned anyway, right? Just go with the flow, don't even try to secure anything anymore.

Thanks for the information.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] CHH2:
Way to make up what you want to read. Like I said, LG update the V20 and V30 for the BlueBorne attack pretty quickly. I suspect that as soon as Android is patched for this, it'll filter down pretty quickly. In the meantime, you can just wear a tinfoil hat to keep the bad rays out. All manufacturers will be working on this and getting fixes out ASAP. After that, it'll be on to the next bug. Because that's how things are in the software world.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Agreed.

My 2014 Moto XT1225 -- rooted with Nougat custom ROM -- has BlueBorne patch while Motorola couldn't care less about a 3 year old phone that never got anything past Marshmallow. And next month, when Google releases the security patch for this Krack Attack, I'll be patched for that too!

This is why rooting and custom ROMs will ALWAYS give you the latest security patches, and you don't have to depend on the kindness of OEMs who might take 3 or 4 months to push out something even if you do have "new" device that still gets updates.

If someone if suggesting to skip the LG V30 because of this, that's really silly.

1) LG will most certainly patch it. Will just take some time. Rooting and custom ROMs are the way to go. You can even get OTA updates with most ROMs nowadays.

2) What happens when the "next big thing" hits? Is that person going to always sell their phone every time out of fear?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] CHH2:
^Exactly

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] GoatSac:
I have looked and looked and i cant seem to find any information pertaining to my issue. I have a stock tilt with the HTC Home plugin, HTC Album, Kaiser Tweak, Shogunmark wm6 threader, and Arcsoft MMS enable and composer.

Now on to the problem. I will be texting through the shogunmark program or just messing around on the phone, nothing specific, and i will get a little box that says out of memory: please close some windows and try again. When i look in the AT&T task manager all it says is open is the messaging program and activesync (even though it is not hooked to my computer at all).

Any ideas or suggestions or ways to fix this problem would be greatly appreciated.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] 246810:
Have you checked your device memory? It could possibly be quite low because you’ve installed far too many applications on your device memory, and not on your storage card (if you even have a storage card?)

Sometimes, temporary/unnecessary files end up installed and duplicated on your device memory. If you don’t need them, delete them. Applications like SKtools can also help you free up much needed space by deleting unnecessary files.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] GoatSac:
Is there a specific place to obtain SKTools? I searched and all i saw was someone else mentioning it, not a link or anything.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] grizzley:
your problem is with the SMS threader you have. I'd love to search for you but I havent got the time right now. I personally posted a fix in another thread and I have seen the fix in other threads as well. It's out there, go get it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] 246810:
http://s-k-tools.com/index.html?sktools/m_feat.html Even without the programme, click on ‘start’ then ‘settings’ then ‘system’ and then ‘memory’. You’ll be able to see both your storage and program memory.

To give you an idea, my storage memory is 92.75MB and my programme memory is 61.65 MB. If you’re memory is very low, then this could be the programme. This can be easily fixed by clicking on ‘file explorer’ then ‘my device’ and sifting through your programmes and deleting any uneeded programmes.

SK tools is meant to be pretty good as well, but it costs about $17. I’ve always deleted uneeded programmes manually by myself too.

But it looks like Grizzley has suggested a likely problem with your SMS. Maybe this could be the problem too...?

Hello, everyone

After the charging circuit went on my Nexus 6, I went out and bought a Nexus 6P on ebay. The seller has a good rep and said the device was in 100% working condition and extensively tested. The seller has not gotten back to me yet about asking for a partial refund, but I did pick up insurance through Assurant. Has anyone had any experience of fixing the battery through Assurant? Also the battery is dying from 95% percent and down. Could this be just a meter issue and not a battery issue?
[Nexus 6P General] v12xke:
Sorry to hear this... it is the battery for sure- and the dealer should not have sold it without that disclaimer. Normally I would say source your own battery from a known good dealer and have it replaced at a shop near you. Since you have Assurant you may have to go in a different direction. Beware there are a ton of dud batteries out there and you may get another. Good luck.
[Nexus 6P General] noXcape:
I just put in a new battery. Got it from eBay. It is an exact factory replacement with sensor. It is holding a charge 100% better than the previous battery. It was easy to put in...just have to be careful of the screen ribbon under the center of the battery.

Battery 17$

New back and finger print sensor 21$

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] SimplyNando:
I've been combing the forums and I haven't been able to find an answer to my question, sorry if it's been posted before and I didn't see it.

So I'm making the switch from a Verizon Galaxy S8+ to an AT&T Note 8. I know Verizon blocked a bunch of Samsung features and I wanted to know if they're available on the AT&T variant? My Note 8 won't be delivered until 10/18 so I'm just preparing myself. Lol

Features I really want:

-Smart Call (I know this is deactivated on almost every carrier)

-Samsung Cloud

-Device Maintenance

Does the AT&T dialer have the nearby places feature? I haven't been able to tell from any videos I've found and I haven't been able to go into a carrier store to see a demo unit.

I was able to get all of these features on my Verizon S8+ by flashing the regular U1 software, but I lost all of the Verizon features I needed (Visual Voicemail, WiFi Calling, and carrier billing for Play Store). So i'm wondering if it would be worth it for the Note 8? Or are the features I'm inquiring about enabled on the AT&T variant?

I saw some people were saying they were having LTE and WiFi calling issues with unlocked devices on AT&T so I'm a little weary of flashing the unlocked version onto it.

Thanks in advance!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] ShrekOpher:
Samsung Cloud and device maintenance are both on AT&T.

Not sure what smart call is.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] SimplyNando:
Awesome! 2 out of 3 features is good.

Basically just the Caller ID feature built-in by Samsung. I doubt it would make the cut as carriers usually charge for it as a premium service and they don't want Samsung to provide it for free.

It also adds a "Places" section in the stock dialer. I know that specific feature was also available in the T-Mobile S8+ when i had it briefly, but for some reason was removed by Verizon.

Looks cool too.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] GallardosEggrollShop:
I flashed the unlocked firmware on my AT&T Note8 and Smart call is working on it. Didn't realize how much I got Spam numbers until I didnt have it. I'm glad I flashed the unlocked firmware to get it.

Composed on Galaxy Note8
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] SimplyNando:
That's what i think i'm going to do. And i didn't realize exactly how much bloatware is on the AT&T version so i'll be flashing the unlocked version on it today.

Did you flash the regular, unbranded one or the AT&T version? Which features did you lose?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] GallardosEggrollShop:
I flashed the regular, unbranded version. Only thing I noticed I lost was Wi-Fi Calling and VoLTE which I can live with. Didn't realized there was an Unlocked AT&T version of the firmware, might give that a go but I've got my phone set up perfect enough that I might be too lazy to do that hahhaha.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] SimplyNando:
Oh nice. I've got really crappy service inside my house, so I need the WiFi calling. I think i'll give it a try later today and see if it still has the features i need.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] kangi26:
I have the same crap coverage in my house too. So i use Wi-Fi Calling all the time. There is the AT&T Call Protect app that in essence does the exact same thing as the Smart Call (I'm using that too)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] SimplyNando:
True, I saw that's it's powered by Hiya, which is the same app for the smart call. Mine just doesn't seem to be working. I've gotten 3 spam calls already and that app hasn't shown anything. AT&T should just let that service go and use the built in Smart Call lol

For now, I just installed the actual Hiya app so i can get a popup along with the call to see who's calling. Gonna just flash the AT&T version of the unlocked software!

[Moto Z2 Play  Questions & Answers] f.baio:
Ok, I think this is going to be a noob question, but anyways...

I've seen the Moto G5 plus community making some custom roms for their devices. Since the G5+ is extremely similar to the Z2 Play when it comes to hardware specs, is it possible to just flash a G5+ rom into the Z2?

Since I only have one android device, I can't take many risks so I wanna know if someone has done it or is willing to do it

If it's impossible (I'm thinking it probably is anyways), how hard would properly porting it to the Z2 be?
