[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] keithleger:
Yeah, I read the review and thought the same thing. But BI is very "Apple friendly" and they don't tend to like any android that much. But it did show his lack of knowledge if he dismisses a phone because of bloatware. I hate that too but would never just a phone one it when other carriers or unlocked models don't have the same. I also don't consider some of the apps bloatware, like memo and mail. I much prefer LG's mail over gmail for exchange mail. I have gotten great photos from the V30 but I will admit, having both the Pixel and the V30, the Pixel is a better camera but not so much better that I don't prefer the V30 overall. I will take the wide angle lens over the better camera overall. I just find it useful for my situations.

I'm not upset that somebody doesn't like the phone, I'm upset that my brain hurts from reading a terribly written and childish review. Go ahead and dislike the phone, but if you're getting paid to write about it, have some basic writing skills.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Japultra:
Also, this piece of gold:

"One of the V30's tricks is a highly specialized manual camera mode that lets you play with finer camera settings, but I couldn't get a good picture no matter how much I adjusted settings like ISO, shutter speeds, or white balance."

The shot he was attempting to shoot was an HDR shot. :rolleyes:

TFF, the LG image is clearly superior to the Pixel one but he thinks the Pixel image looks prettier never mind the blur.

There may be cam shake, who cares?

Take away message, it's a good phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] TheSssKiller:
First of all, I'm rather new to android, considering I've been using iOS for a long time, until I got a samsung galaxy s8. Today, I decided to root my phone and I did. It went well, but after the first restart it went to recovery mode, in my case it went to TWRP. Every time I tried to reboot to system it just went back to TWRP. Then I tried wiping and once I pressed reboot it said there is no OS installed, if I did reboot it would just bootloop. I have run out of ideas on what to do and I would really appreciate some advice here! :fingers-crossed:
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] TheMadScientist:
Download a twrp flashable rom for your device place on sd card and flash, Or use odin and restore your devices stock firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] jpcdeux:
Yup. Download, put on your SD Card, put SD Card in phone and reboot recovery.

You wiped a little too much and didn't install an OS...

Maybe be more careful before just wiping random stuff.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Fischer_1:
Quickest way.. download Smart Switch on your Windows 10 PC from Sammy's website. Connect the phone and type in it's model and S/N number. It will download the correct stock firmware for said phone and take care of the rest for you.

EDIT: Oops you can get into recovery. Yeah like they said transfer a rom to your SD card, or if you download the quick ADB setup you are able to connect the phone while in TWRP to your PC and can transfer files that way.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Tynezz:
So I was trying to switch over from supersu -> magisk and something happened and now I can only access erecovery (can't access twrp or when I boot normally I just get the honor logo there forever). When I tried downloading latest version I get an error. What can I do? Please help ASAP since this is my first phone and I don't wanna mess up already :(

*EDIT

I can actually boot into twrp and my PC can access my phone but the only thing in the storage is the folder "TWRP" which is empty.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Saeem:
I faced the same problem and I fixed it somehow but I don't remember how actually I did that. But I guess I did first format the device using twrp and then flashed the magisk agin.(try it, but I am not sure if it was that or not, i did that about 3-4 months ago)
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Tynezz:
I bricked my device when I went to twrp and did a wipe when I was trying to fix a bug where it said there was 0mb in storage.
[BLU R1 HD Accessories] sturmfalken01:
Before purchasing the phone the first thing I noticed on the bad reviews is that the battery failed when they recharged it with anything else but the charger that comes with the phone so I've been very careful to only charge my phone with it during the year I have been using it. But now I spent long times outside home attending a hospitalized relative and there are no sockets around so having a portable battery has become a necessity.

Do you know/have bought one that holds a good amount of energy and is friendly with the phone's charge specifications? It will be very appreciated.

Please an Android ROM Oreo 8.1 or Android ROM Pie 9.0? For Meizu M6 Note
[General Questions and Answers] mickeyj4j:
I am trying to install Lineage OS to my Meizu M6 Note.

To use TWP the M6 Note needs to be rooted. all websites that mention about rooting this the links to the files aren't there any more. and the One click root apps don't have meizu listed.

Does someone have an option or know how to do this without a rooted device. because that seems to be the only way we can do it.
[General Questions and Answers] Vietnamesemember@-@:
To root you just need to follow this video

root and flash this twrp, use flashify or any other apps like that:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ukLu7g5z_M92Id1nf0tEW8HJjmeJFsEl/view?usp=sharing

backup devinfo partition in twrp

then extract and paste all of this to backup folder:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ZlkjMRbMzoVEdXz1INVvGi4t57AP8FNb/view?usp=drive_link

restore and bootloader will be unlocked

then reboot bootloader

Make sure your computer have been installed adb system wide before. Connect the phone to your pc after you go to bootloader mode

use fastboot to flash orangefox recovery:

fastboot flash recovery filename.img:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1MaG0AuHikF80UyqkOuOB5KiFKZD873w-/view?usp=sharing

fastboot reboot recovery

then flash any rom in 4pda meizu m6 note page {Mod edit: Link to 4pda removed. Oswald Boelcke, Senior Moderator}

Remember to install neccessary drivers on your pc before doing this. I hope it isn't late

When you pair a Samsung smartwatch or band Samsung manifests all the data required for the app to appear in the Play Store and work. So as a meatspace workaround you could buy an old, cheap Samsung wrist device that supports Pay and pair it.

[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Sonie-User:
Hi guys :)

I am sorry that my post is maybe very short but the original one was messed up by the system :(

So now I try it again and with a short version...

At first:

Thanks for help (a "flashing triple-noob") on xda :laugh:. I found so many informations (also before with other problems) and this was way beyond "help"-all of you get a great "thumbs up"!

And so far-the only experience in flashing was on my Xperia Z1 (de-brand) and it was quite easy but now it seems....uhmmmm....

So now go to my questions:

(hint: I want to use the stock FW no custom)

1.)

Anybody know the differences between the firmware version (no, I dont mean fingerprint ;)) of "Customized Hong Kong" and "CE1" for XZP Premium G8142?

Depends on the answer of this question maybe the next two dont need an answer ;)

2.)

Question for newflasher:

I found and read many informations about flashing the FW but I getting more confused with more information!?

If I use newflasher the normal guide for that was veryyyy easy. And also at the moment newflasher is the only application for the XZ so > no other choice

But on the other side some user mentioned the following things:

-newflasher doesnt do a "full flash", something/files will be incomplete (means what? somebody have issues after flash?)

-delete parts of the files (like "things dont need" or "the partion folder")

-create partition folder (?)

So what is right and what is wrong?

Do I need to follow the easy tutorial or do I need to customize depends what happens during the flash?

3.)

Question for flashtool:

I know that currently flashtool doesnt support the XZP (still right?) even if its mentioned under "supported devices".

Also found (the generally) information that it isnt necessary to unlock the bootloader for flash a stock rom.

Now in flashtool description everybody can read: "...can only be used by Xperia™ devices having an unlocked boot loader..."???

But for unlock it needs to save the DRM keys before...and for this needs root.

But for root it needs to unlock the BL before...and this will erase the DRM keys before can save them.

So even if flashtool works on XZP the keys will be always lost?

Uhmm what I get wrong?

So thats my questions and I hope I can get some answers.

Because for the decision about the next device the XZP always comes back after compare with others (even it has a hybrid sim tray).

Thanks for help
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] FartyParty:
Launch Flashtool/XperiFirm and download the fw you want. Either Nougat or Oreo.

Go into the fw folder, copy all the newflasher files and simply drop them into the fw folder, connect your phone in flashmode and doubleclick newflasher.exe

Wait until it has completed flashing and that's it!

IF you want to upgrade your fw later on without losing data, then you would have to delete some files yes, but for now just let everything be.

There's not really any difference, just go with what you want and it will be fine.

It does a proper flash if you leave the files intact.

Only delete certain files if you want to upgrade your fw without losing data.

Just rightclick the rar file and extract into a folder "partition"

You don't need to do anything.

You can flash without unlocking bootloader, don't worry.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Sonie-User:
Hi, thanks for reply.

I see your first post-its good that you dont see the first (messed up) post :p (because contains much more text :D)

Sounds good and exactly the things I found first. Later (after tons of information from xda) the questions comes up. But now - seems the way it works :good:

Nice to know-so I can buy a randomly choosed XZP and the FW I want (at the moment all devices here dont have any google content in the FW) can be flashed afterwards

Ok. I only getting confused about the written post on xda (maybe I can find it in my vistited sites to show you)

...also in Flashtool? :D
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] FartyParty:
No you use newflasher, Flashtool doesn't work with XZP.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] lintern:
So with newflasher you are meant to extract the partition.zip and put the contents in a partition folder in the same directory as the other files downloaded through XperiFirm right? If that's the case then how did I manage to update from Nougat to Oreo when I deleted the partition.zip file without extracting it and flashed the update?

Hi

I have recently upgraded my hx4700 to kozhura WM6 R4 and it is excellent! I'm using WiFi to my wireless Lan then retrieving my email from the web. My internet mail server uses IMAP which should mean I can log on from any of my pc's / mobile devices and see the same mail on all devices. My problem is this. I have a main icoming mail box with several sub directories (as most people to sort mail into diferent groupings) I can access mail in the main directory and it all downloads as I would expect but I cannot see any mail in any of the subdiectories?? Does anyone else use IMAP mail? or have this probelm or better still know how to cure the problem?

Any help as always welcome.

Phil
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dirlan2001:
Hi,

The sorting of your mail happens on your computer ot on the mailserver, as far as I know. Besides, I believe it only works right if you leave a copy on the mailserver. I guess you need to make the same 'rules' and maps on your device, as are on the computer.....

Cheers,

Dirk
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Phil3099:
Hi Dirk,

Yes you are absolutly right, the mail server maps exactly what you set up on your pc or device so if you set up a main directory with 3 sub directories this is reproduced on the mail server. This means that if you have multiple devices when you log on from any device it should automatically replicate whats on the server. Therefore if I delete some mail from my device its deleted from the server and when I log on with another device its been deleted. The same is true of sub directories if I add or remove them or place mail in them this will automatically update all devices conected to the server.

Its brilliant when you log on from multiple locations or devices it means all devices are always in sync with each other.

But this is the problem.. I set up my hx4700 to access the imap server it sees and maps all directories back to my 4700 and downloads all the mail in the main directory but will not download mail into the sub directories!

Anyone got any ideas?

Phil
