[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] zfk110:
looks like a bad stock rom, try https://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/app/sidesync

if that doesnt work then your emmc chip is done

When you try to go in recovery mode keep pressed longer volume up and home, release power when screen is on. I had this issue and worked for me this way
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] Fuyuanhuihaoxiao:
This type of leather wallet cases that you buy are a great way to save space in your pockets by combining your wallet and your phone into one. I received this "Real Full Grain Leather Wallet Case" and really enjoyed how well it was packed. It came in a iPulse bag, and once I removed it, it was again wrapped in some protective plastic. I placed my new Note 8 into the TPU slot where the phone goes, and it fits nice and snug. It a soft TPU type holder which isn't hard plastic and protects the phone also from scratches when inserting it. The wallet smells good too with that new Leather smell. The stitching is and looks hand done (unsure if it is), but it is all perfect. The leather has a soft feel too it. Cards fit snug in the slots. There is enough room for 2 credit cards, and license. A slot under them for money and other items. You maybe able to fit two cards per slot but I didn't try. Also, the magnet closer that holds the wallet closed has good strength to hold it well. I had no issues of it coming open.

Two areas of improvement I would recommend but more of a personal preference. It would be nice if it shuts off the phone screen like some of them do with magnets. Also, there is no cut out for the ear piece speaker so you have to keep the wallet open when talking on the phone.

Otherwise, a great wallet! Good job! Here are some nice pictures I took of the experience of unpacking it and putting my phone in it.

One note: In the video the guy states he has "a scratch on my phone already" because it's "wide open" at the bottom.

When in fact, the phone is not scratched at all. The case it pops into is. I thought that was kinda funny.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] jinshanghaiaraol:
actually all this kind case needs no holes for the earpiece, just turn the volume to the max, imageine there is hole, and talk with case closed
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] ljg600:
This is an excellent case. Form, fit and finish are excellent. The TPU will protect against side scratches, but like most leather cases, the impact drop protection is not great-and certainly not Milspec rated. However, the magnetic latch and leather edges offer some drop/scratch protection.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] krabman:
I've found leather wallets to be great for drop protection and I've never broke a screen in one. I know it's happened and it doesn't mean I cant or wont but I've gone through a lot of phones and a lot of these style cases and they've all taken a few drops without damage. I do agree they are not the best possible protection but I'd say they're a fair bit better than the average case.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] dallasmanic:
This one does a great job about protection.

The magnetic closure keeps it closed all the time, so dropping is never a problem for me.

FYI, I DO INSTALL GLASS SCREEN PROTECTOR
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] limeybastard01:
Anyone have advice on how to run the shiney leather to suede on these cases. ? I'm thinking wet and dry sandpaper or wire wool perhaps.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] Limeybastard:
Not to worry , used scotch pad and alcohol worked a treat.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] Limeybastard:
Gave the case an aged look. LOL

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] dallasmanic:
why dont you go and get a suede leather?

The case is torched like helk
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] Limeybastard:
As I mentioned a few months ago the suede one looks like a book which I didn't like. Now, this one feels like suede and the right color for me. Also, since the sheen has gone, it's going to age better with staining and what not. Grips and feels good also ;)

Hey, guys, I Am playing Pokemon GO using spoofing in my LYF Water 5.

Basically what I did on that phone was:-

1)Rooted it without twrp MAIN Steps here( https://xdaforums.com/android/general/guide-lyf-water-5-ls-5007-t3512118).

2) Then moved Flygps to internal and then again unrooted with SuperSu.

3)And the most important part is that it should pass safety.Net Check which my device passed.

Pretty simple, but now I want to do this exact with My Mi A1.

Can you guys guide me on how to do?

There is a Thread about Root without TWRP but I don't think SuperSu is included in that root (https://xdaforums.com/mi-a1/how-to/root-mia1-twrp-t3678453)

Let's say I followed the above procedure and I rooted my device. But How will I unroot then to pass the Safety.Net Test?

[Xiaomi Redmi 3s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] theunnamedfeeling:
Yes, Dev options can be opened and nothing crashes

---------- Post added at 09:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:34 AM ----------

I installed this ROM and what can I say about bugs:

1. There is no way to remap physical buttons so I can't even reach recents without the navbar

2. Fingerprints option appears only after reboot, so keep calm ad reboot if you doesn't see them

3. BT doesn't pair automatically after reboot

4. XDA labs crashes for some reasons
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] batatok:
1. I used xposed + gravitybox as a workaround.

2. I can confirm this. After rebooting it works as it should .

3. Didn't test it yet.

4. Works flawlessly for me (I restored app+data via oandbackup)

I faced some weird error messages and will report with logs if I encounter them again.

Overall it is a stable and bloatfree rom. I like it and will use it as a daily driver. :good:

Edit: I didn't face any more error messages. And again: This rom is great. Keep up the great work!

[MENTION=8678764]simpleflips[/MENTION]

wow - your post should stand out as a prototype for HOW TO ASK FOR HELP!

I had the same problem recently when trying to flash my F8331 under Windows 10. Did not try Linux on the same machine since there are some issues with Mono here.

My drivers where not giving me any clues (PC-Manager, logging under Windows?).

So I dug out my spare laptop (Win 7 bitness?): installed the XZ-driver and it worked there after a full wipe in TWRP (I had encrypted the device and TWRP did not take the key properly).

You can try the drivers I link in my Guide.

Under both Windows installations I had no problems with adb and fastboot.

So I can only guess that my "solution" was the full wipe or some unkwon differences in driver magic between the notebooks used.
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] simpleflips:
[MENTION=6774113]DHGE[/MENTION]

Apologies for the delay, thank you for the words and response. I should've noted that before my OP and bootloop, I tried to flash the custom Nougat ROM via TWRP, but got an error. (Zip file is corrupt! Error installing zip file '/sdcard1/[rom].zip') (Tested after transferring the file via AirDroid, don't remember if I even downloaded directly from my phone.) Now if I run a full wipe through TWRP and re-flash the original 6.0.1 ROM that's in my microSD, it *does* install, but bootloop still exists. I tried wiping/flashing the custom ROM via fastboot out of curiosity, and received the following:

wipe (entered bootloader mode from my Downloads folder, where the ROM is found)

C:\Users\[name]\Downloads>fastboot -w

Erase successful, but not automatically formatting.

Can't determine partition type.

FAILED (status read failed (Too many open files in system))

Erase successful, but not automatically formatting.

Can't determine partition type.

FAILED (command failed (Invalid argument))

erasing 'userdata'...

FAILED (command write failed (No such device or address))

finished. total time: 0.020s

(Afterward, I get a message saying fastboot.exe has stopped working. Not on Minimal ADB, though.)

flash

C:\Users\[name]\Downloads>fastboot update [rom].zip

'archive does not contain 'android-info.txt' ,

error: update package '[rom].zip' has no android-info.txt

Do these errors relate with each other? Was my file just not downloaded properly?

Regarding the drivers, I downloaded the official Xperia XZ ADB interface driver (Sony sa0115) from SONY's website, and installed via Device Manager, but get the Code 10 Error mentioned in OP. According to some user posts, the solution was changing their phone's USB configuration to MIDI, afterward Windows would properly detect and install the Sony sa0115 driver. (I reckon that's not possible on a soft bricked device, is it...?) No devices are found after entering adb devices in command prompt, so I'm going to presume installing/flashing anything via ADB is out of the question. Right now, Device Manager shows 2 devices-- One of them being the actual XZ when connected in fastboot mode (labeled "Android Phone"), the other being the Sony sa0115 driver I downloaded/installed. The trick now is mounting the two together.

At this point, fastboot/TWRP seem to be the only way out of this. The custom ROM notes that no kernel flashing is necessary, but your guide includes a link to the AndroPlus kernels (for stock, and other roms, I take it). Unfortunately, until I figure out how to properly flash the firmware via Flashtool, AndroPlus will have to wait. (Unless there's a way to find out what firmware my phone is using right now.) The next option is to directly send the custom 7.1.1 ROM from my PC to the microSD card, but I can't find my SD card adapter right now, so I'll update later this week.
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] DHGE:
Unfortunately this is not a way out. And what you wrote above sounds rather weird for me...

The only way out is to flash a SONY ROM properly. THE tool for this is flashtool.

There are some mentions of SONY's recovery tool(s?) but last time I tried one I could not get it to work. Flashtool to my rescue.

Maybe you can take your phone to a qualified repair shop and they flash you a SONY ROM.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] JimSmith94:
FYI, I just received my new phone, Seidio Surface case and holster. I had the same setup on my original Pixel XL and it worked fine. However, for some reason the bottom of the Pixel 2 XL case is thicker, causing the USB C port to be recessed too far to connect to the plug on my Seidio USB C dock.

I will be contacting them for suggestions, as the two Seidio products should be compatible with each other.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] theBeachBoy:
That is not a dock...
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] Tisbury:
I've never used a dock, but I can't imagine buying a dock like this where all of the phone weight is propped up on the charging port. Those things aren't welded in like a car trailer... they snap all the dang time. I am currently in the market for a USB-C dock, but am specifically looking for one that has a "rest" for my phone.

I've seen a couple out there, but one is Samsung and the other looks identical, but with a different name.

It seems we just need to create our own and we'll sell millions...

I ended up buying this dock. It's great so far even though it doesn't fast charge. I just have it on my night stand so I don't really care about fast charging there. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B071HFM217/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_ycgdAb6TYTBSR

[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] robstunner:
Doesn't seem worth it. I've been burned too many times on Amazon with trusting their reviews. Just basically threw away $8 on a screen protector that ended up being complete garbage however had a 4.5 star review.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] Tisbury:
One of the reviews shows the connector broke after a few uses. Why are there no quality docks out there? Everything is so dang cheap. I'd spend $50 if I knew it would be a solid dock that I could use for a long time.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] bsweetness:
As theBeachBoy said, that's not a dock, so it's not what people in this thread are looking for. But if anyone is looking to buy a multiport charger that supports PD, I've owned that Anker one for a year. I have it setup near an older iOttie car mount that I use as a dock on my desk, and it works great.

back then i have always been getting file corruption on my sd card and i have read up a lot on it but nothing really works. After i switched to Open Touch v3.0 it was fine until yesterday my sd card got corrupted again and i lost a lot of pictures.. Anyone have any solution?
[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] zcink:
sounds like you have a bad micro sd card. Corruption was common problem with the stock T-Mobile rom but not usually a problem with other roms.

Maybe you can take it out and format it. Hard Reset the phone and try it again.

You can format your card with Windows and that should work fine. Also I've had this program for awhile which is supposed to be far superior to any other program for formatting Micro SD Cards, but I've never used it. Here it is if you'd like it.
[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] porkch0p:
any special way to format it or should i just right click and then format?
[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] zcink:
It might be best to take the card out of the phone. Put it in a card reader and format it on your PC, then put it back in the phone. Making sure you hear it Click in.
[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] Monarch73:
SD-Card

I think there are some possible reasons causing troubles like this.

- Files where not cleanly closed at poweroff.

Alway make sure, all programms and applications are terminated before you shut down.

- Incompatible SD-Card

Always refrain from cheap and/or unbranded Cards. I use a Toshiba 2GB SDCard. Never had any problems. Even with the orginal stock ROM with WM5.

- defective SD-Card

Kinda hard to detect if you have just one card. Plug the SDCard into your PC and do a "surfacescan" on the virtual Drive.

- unstable SD-Card connectors

Try to clean the connection-pads on the card and inside your device with a small brush or paper tissue. Never use any other fluits than water to clean connection-pads on the card and just a little drop of it. Make sure everything is dry before you turn your device back on or some parts could get seriously damaged!

I think its also a good advice to see your SD-Card and Systemmemory as a very unsafe and unstable place for critical data. Always do backups as often as you can.

Sorry, for my bad english. Its late and I already had some drinks PLUS I am not very used to speak english anymore.. :(
[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] porkch0p:
Thanks for your help don't worry about the english, i still understand you and thats all that matters. i am using Sandisk 2gb.

BTW, zcink

the file you gave me doesn't work, it doesn't even let me extract it
[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] duprade:
Don't install any programs that may be running at any given time on your SD card. If you have a program running (that's installed on the SD card) and you phone hibernates/shuts down after not being used ... will cause SD corruption.

Nothing with a Today plugin that you use ... nothing that you may accidently leave running.
[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] papamopps:
and still every benchmark test shows...

... reading main memory = FASTER

... reading storage card = SLOWER

You are right. It was not zipped right. I took it down. Zipped it correctly, tested it and reuploaded it. The one thats there now is the new one. This is supposed to be Professional software.
