I hear the oreo beta program will start next month for the s8 which I'm a little upset about. I feel that the now the note 8 is the flagship device, Oreo beta should be on the note 8. The official release will probably be late January/early February if we're lucky
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] RaymondPJR:
I don't care when it comes! I'm enjoying this phone as is.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] pete4k:
I'd rather wait and have most bugs fixed, than rush the update and have some important functions not work any more and then wait on another update to fix the first one. Anything in particular In Oreo. that you're waiting for, or is it just newer must be better. Is it safe to assume they will patch current root exploit, because that maybe a reason for some to actually not update at all.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] vsdagama:
Hi guys,

Since 2 days I ****'d up my phone. I have been totally disconnected since then. :(

Trying to fix this situation ASAP.

I wanted to update from OmniROM Android 6.0 to 7.1.2.

I had unified storage or LVM, i don't know which, 1 single internal SD.

Wiping too much stuff in TWRP was the start of my problems is my guess.

Result: no internal memory visible (0mb)

After some time I fixed that. I went through the whole lot: brick phase, bootloop, etc.

I even poked out the power button and disassembled the phone thinking the power button was broke!

Then with a combination of the unbrick tool and others I am now in the following situation:

I can get into fastboot mode, but no ROM is installed, when flashing TWRP 3.1.1 I get a black screen when booting into recovery.

When flashing stock omni recovery 1.0 this works, but I can't do anything. (Installation failed)

So how do I go on from here?

I'm suspecting the unified storage/lvm is the culprit, keeping me from being able to install stock coloros 2.1.5i or others.

A lot of useful information from the old Oppo forums is gone..

Thank god for XDA! :good:

Any help to restore my daily driver would be greatly appreciated!

I've been roaming the forums for multiple hours and days at this point, flashing everything that has .img or .zip I can find... :silly:

*** Update: Using recovery 4.4, I now have stock oppo recovery v1.2.

When I try to merge/unmerge the partition, I get stuck in "Wiping, please wait" for more than 45 minutes, so I quit.

The status tells me: non-unified partition. So I don't know the current state of my Internal memory...

Still installing OMNI or coloros roms doesn't work..

Now, pushing files to the device gives me: no permission.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Jan.Pul:
You need an SD card for this:

Get into TWRP using the recovery installer for find 7 (via fastboot) than flash the setup LVM zip after that use the recovery installer again to flash the color os recovery then flash project spectrum 1.3 for Oppo find 7/7a then everything should be repaired

This is the LVM zip:

[Huawei Mediapad M3 Questions & Answers] romeo_coi:
Hi guys!

First of all, sorry for my bad English!

I've ordered a 2nd Docomo Dtab Compact D-01J from GEO store Japan to replace my broken Ipad Mini 4. At the price of 140$ for a like new, full of original box and accessories, I think it's the best bang for my bucks.

Like the Mediapad M2, Huawei has built a specific variant for Docomo which called Dtab Compact D-02H, and some people has successfully converted their Dtab D-02H to the international Mediapad M2. So I'm wondering if we can convert the Dtab D-01J to the Mediapad M3 or not? Because the D-02H and the M2 are share exactly same hardwares, but the D-01J has some differences compared to the M3: it's only have 16G ROM, 3G RAM and 4980mAh battery. I've also contacted to a guy who has a D-02H converted to M2 for the conversation, he said he can't answer for sure but it may be work. The procedure is very simple: unlock bootloader -> install TWRP -> root and finally install the international firmware.

I'm living in Vietnam and Huawei doesn't officially release Mediapad M3 in my country, so there will be no support. My question is: is it possible to unbrick device if tje procedure above doesn't work?

Does anyone of you has tried it before or have any suggestion?

Thanks!

Successfully converted my Docomo dtab to M3 Europe.

Does anyone use the DIrecTV NFL Sunday Ticket app on their FireTV? I have a 1st Gen FireTV and the app forces closed every few minutes. Looking at reviews on Amazon I see others are having similar issues. Anyone else have any experience with this app on the FireTV? I love the app when it's working but the forcing closed gets really annoying.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] rickylambert:
I´ve been dealing with this for a while:

When I power on or restart phone, some apps(e.g. Gallery, Skype, Tripcase, etc) are incredibly laggish or won´t even respond while others(e.g. Whatsapp, Outlook, etc) work just fine. If I keep opening or clicking on unresponsive applications, phone will reset! When I leave phone apart for 10-15min everything works just fine, no lag whatsoever, no resets.

I´m on stock, unroot, latest PHN Nougat, and have tried latest ARO Nougat, too. Tried complete phone wipe and install without recovering from Samsung Cloud, wiping cache, etc. Also tried different Touchwiz versions, still no joy.

Any clues? Many thanks in advance.

EDIT: It was a micro SD card issue, after taking it out and flashing from scratch everything works fine. Apparently the SD is damaged.

[Android Head-Units] esounds:
I've been through a few Android head units over the years and while they continue to improve, there still seems to be a few shortcomings. I am hoping someone can direct me to a solution (universal) that can do the following:

1. Parrot BT (I have tried other units but only Parrot units have been acceptable)

2. Digital output (SPDIF or HDMI) so I don't have to mess with any chipset-based DAC and get straight digital signal into my external high-end DAC.

3. Android 6.0 or newer

Thanks in advance!
[Android Head-Units] coolest35:
1. Not entirely, most have the inbuilt, generics).

2. Nope. A few people have attempted to use external usb DAC's, but unsure how that would work for your setup.. but the android head unit wont give you good sound for your high end DAC

3. Yes, most of the companies are coming out with 6.0, and even 7.
[Android Head-Units] esounds:
A simple "nope does not exist yet" would have sufficed. <smile>

Regarding #2, that's the same thing as going iPad to external DAC where the signal remains digital through the head unit so you really are not subjected to the awful internal digital conversion and low voltage RCA outputs.
[Android Head-Units] coolest35:
Yes. :good:

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] spadz93:
So, I was running the latest PN rom, but without root and just an unlocked bootloader. With this setup I was able to add my cards and even make a successful transaction.

I decided I wanted to try Oreo out, so I returned to stock, wiped my ENTIRE device, and flashed the latest release (again, without root and with an unlocked bootloader). Now I can't even add my cards, as it's complaining about an unlocked bootloader or custom rom. What the f*ck? Anyone else run into this or does anyone have any tips to get this back working?

UPDATE: Found a patched stock kernel in the ROM/Kernel/etc section, and it let me add a card. Will test a transaction shortly

Double update: It worked. Gonna leave this here for anyone else who encounters the same problem

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Michaelr219:
you did a great job with this theme... especially the dialer... it has its quirks and bugs i wish i knew how to fix (on the dialer)... and as for the theme, its perfect and very detailed to the t, but is very bulky and slowly responsive on my device. once everything is in memory it is pretty quick, but once you slide to landscape or power the backlight off... the memory will reset itself. (which is a problem with wad) but that isnt your fault ;) wad2 will fix this! i have a lot of memory to spare on my kaiser... and once we get these missing drivers, im sure this theme would be a lot faster, but thats a whole new rant on its own...

but either way, getting back on track, i had to show appreciation to your work and share with this community here. thanks :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Michaelr219:
i believe you extract the theme to /themes/desktop/ and then choose it in theme selector

Wad - wisebar advance?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] grzegorz10:
Seeing the questions you have are all similar I'll answer as one.The main basis for my theme is Wisbar Advance 3 and Wisbar Advance Desktop. If you do not Have or know about these go to http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/download.php and all the relative Information is there.

As for my Theme It is easy to Install Thw Wad just needs to be extracted from the Mobile Vista.rar and the two folders Mobile Vista Portrait and Mobile Vista Landscape placed on your mobile in Themes/Desktop , that is if you have the WAD program. Then just select from Theme Manger.

All the other items are self installing Cab's or Extractable rar's and only need to go into there respective folders ie: Mobile Vista Wmp11 into the folder Windows Media Player etc

I hope this has helped

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] NiteStalker:
Thanks for the great theme work. After a few times making the theme FUBAR'd and reloading it, I finally figured out how to customize it! I even added pages and plugins. Once it's finaly setup the way you want it, make sure you copy the theme directories to a safe location, because its a pain to customize in both portrait and then landscape, hours and even days of work can be lost in a snap. Here are some screen shots to give you some ideas:

The blue bar next to the start button is actaully a signal meter, it helps to know if you can make a call or not.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] NiteStalker:
A few more screens:

The last one here is a page of spb today plugins; "Pocket Plus" "Phone Suite" (as a plus tab) and "Time".
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] NiteStalker:
Last one, used the included "weather page" and and customized it using "spb weather" today plugin, with some custom logos/text:

I would like to see an update to the dialer if possible, the "talk" button needs redial behavior added, right now it does nothing. If I can learn how to fix it, I'll post it if thats ok. It also needs the more white top raised above the buttons, for a better appearance, in my opinion. Thanks again for all the GREAT work, I know you put alot of time into this!

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] NiteStalker:
Sorry another P.S.

Disable any screen savers, especially "Spb Time" if you have it, the screen saver won't apear over this theme, until you try to answer a call, and then it can possibly lock up the phone requiring a reset. Do you really need a screensaver anyway, if its not in use, shut down the screen and save the battery :)

Sometimes I guess they'll do it, but I just got off a chat with them and they wouldn't do it, without charging me the $15. I didn't do it at this time because I just purchased my Fire HD 8 last week, and word is that it's going to be $50 this coming Friday.

[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shuggaloaf:
My thoughts exactly. I know in my example that shipping 4 ways on a heavy bulky item had to cost them at least $50 instead of just giving me the $12. I've been doing the return/re-order ever since. Seems like a stupid business decision.

I figure I'll share my experience with the Fire HD10 chat method for ads removal. Figured I've been an amazon customer for 15 years, shouldn't be an issue based on comments here. Chatted with them, said lock screen was lagging, and sure enough the guy immediately offered to remove ads. I didn't have to ask and he mentioned no charge. Yep, the ass charges me $15+ for it. Chatted back and got a refund but still, no mention of charging? And it didn't show up in orders either. Only knew because of an email. Wonder how many people get charged and miss it.

Sure this was just one of those fluke "bad rep" situations and most should have no issues but just watch out for some of the reps they do sneaky crap.
