[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Senichan:
Good Morning Guys,

My LG V10 H960A with Nougat rebootet yesterday suddenly in bootloop or "wtf chaos mode". Now nothing is working.

-Download Mode: Device Manager on Windows says nothing, dont find the phone.

-fastboot: Works fine

-normal Booting: Sometimes it goes UP to SIM-PIN and freezes, sometime freezes on Bootscreen (LG logo), sometime it reboots itself and very rarely it gives me the legendary Greenscreen.

-Recovery: without USB Cable plugged in -> bootloop.

With Cable plugged in: TWRP 3.0.2.0 starting, touchscreen dosent work. When i the plug the Cable out and OTG mouse in i can use twrp very laggy. (reflashing TWRP via fastboot didnt help)

I cant reflash the System via LGUP UPPERCUT (LGUP find the H960A correctly) because the phone reboots to fast or disconnect from pc automatically. LGUP says the Error.

So my Question is: WTF is going on here.

Sorry for very bad english today. Yesterday was a lot of Alkohol drunken. I should go make a coffee....

how to hide apps in vibe k5 (root) ,running stock rom
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] N0he:
Hey guys,

I'm thinking about buying the Mate9 dual sim version (which is probably MHA-L29C432 as I'm buying it in Germany?), but I have two questions:

1) Are there any good ROMs for this phone? What I'm looking for is a stable ROM with vanilla android experience and xposed support.

2) How easy is it on this phone to return to the original state after flashing a new ROM (in case I have to return the phone to the store for warranty or similiar)?

Thank you!
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] ante0:
1: there are only stock roms, no AOSP.

There are 3 actively updated roms.

Xposed should work with both, it works with stock as well.

2: it's pretty easy, you need to unlock bootloader though. But if you already installed a rom you'll have it unlocked. Check this guide to install stock https://xdaforums.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-mate-9-flash-update-package-t3593108

Bootloader will lock again when you use that guide, leaving no trace. :p
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] NoodleFox:
I have hopes that Project Treble support comming with the Oreo update will help a bit with custom roms.

If everything works like it should, we should be able to run AOSP on the Mate 9
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] droidbot1337:
i would pass. there are no current devs working on AOSP ROMs for this device and i doubt there will be. i would avoid huawei at all costs if you want AOSP ROMs. stick with snapdragon devices as they have CAF. at this time of the year there are new devices being released and announced so look elsewhere.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] N0he:
Thank you for your answers guys! I decided against it. Wish you all good luck on getting AOSP!

Hi all, last week I found the s2 SMR720 used by my daughter stuck in a bootloop. We don't know the cause of the bootloop (the watch was given to her as a gift and has never been used frequently ... actually I think it was left on the table for one month without being used... it was purchased in the UK and used in Italy) so i tried to reset it using the recovery option in the "boot menu". Well...the watch terminated the recovery with the message 1EE6 "WDS_STU_BODY_INSTALL_P1SS_ON_YOUR_PHONE_N_NGALAXY_PHONES_C_NDOWNLOAD_IT_FROM_P2SS_N_NOTHER_PHONES_C_NDOWNLOAD_IT_FROM_P3SS" and stays that way forever. Any suggestion? Should I try to flash it (unfortunately I have never done that .... I just read some theads here).

Thanks for the support,

Ernesto

Any kind of progress?

I found your text string in Firmware:

usr_share_locale\en\LC_MESSAGES\[B]b2-setup-wizard.mo[/B]

At the moment I am not smart enough to read *.mo files proper... so with text editor...

Install %1$s app on phone from %2$s or %3$s. Install %1$s on your phone.

Galaxy phones:
Download it from %2$s.

Other phones:
Download it from %3$s

Hmmmmmmm...

No idea if this is the standard Screen... only with corrupted text...

:confused:

Will check Youtube Videos or maybe Photos... or maybe I reset my SM-R732...

Best Regards

Edit 1.

:D

You have tried to simple connect with your Phone? With Gear Manager Software?

I mean Samsung "great" Samsung Gear App?

I have Factory Reset my SM-R732... and for me it looks like this is the Welcome Text...

IMHO you see before the Welcome Screen...

And with this Message in theory you should see the yellow Gear Logo... and text:

Gear S2 (12345orotherDigits)

Example for "normal" looking Welcome Screen:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bVpAItyzWE

You should hopefully see the Gear Logo... then you can also try this... if you have no Smartphone for test...
[Samsung Gear S2] ermoscat:
You are right: that was sort of a welcoming message. So I followed the instructions on the youtube clip and apparently the watch works correctly. Only problem is that i keep getting tutorial messages in what looks like an internal format (that is "WDS_xxxxx"). I think that the recovery procedure did not recover the appropriate message set. Maybe I need to try and connect it on my daughter's phone (when she comes back home).

I am attaching a pic showing the kind of messages i keep getting each time i try to do something.

Thanks,

Recovery is misleading...

This is simple Factory Reset.

A.

You need Smartphone... with installed Samsung Gear App...

Then Factory Reset again... connect and configure with handset...

Language change is not possible without handset...

B.

Before you could try to enter this Code:

*#1234#

Maybe you can see Firmwareversion...

Ehm, then tell us what this Code show you?

C.

As background info...

Language is not correct selected... this happens to few users also on Gear S3... with latin/spain/espanol...

Ignore it... FIRST connect with handset and init wtih Gear Manager Software...

Best Regards

Edit 1.

Here as example...

Happens to few users... you are not alone and this is not your fault...

Well ... I connected my phone and completed the installation. Unfortunately the situation does not change..always get the same messages. I also tried to change the language on my phone and then did a factory reset followed by a software reinstall from the gear app...always same result. The fw version now installed is R720CXU2DPFB ( i checked it using the gear settings app...i do not know how to access a keyboard on the gear). Btw the gear app finds a new fw version available ota...version R720XXU2EQC1 but the installation fails.
[Samsung Gear S2] adfree:
If FOTA update also fails... then Software on your SM-R720 is corrupted...

So repair attempt still:

Flash BOKK Firmware with WiFi Odin.

Sorry, no other way...

FOTA aka Firmware update over the air can only successfully finished... if R720CXU2DPFB is 100 % okay.

You could go to Service Center for Flashing Firmware... but this could cost money...

Flashing with Odin is really no Rocket Science...

Your choice.

[Samsung Gear S2] ermoscat:
I downloaded the BOKK firmware zip file ....but it contains only an .exe. Should I just double-click on it while connected to the watch via Odin, and it will take care of everything?
[Samsung Gear S2] adfree:
Be carefully!

NO .exe file inside.

Be sure you download 600 MB ZIP file.

https://www.file-upload.net/download-12731427/smR720_BOKK_OXA.zip.html

3 MD5 files inside... Looks like this:

First of all thank you for your help...

So i followed the instructions to install both ODIN and the downloaded firmware version (BOOK) but i think i have problems connecting via WiFi. I connect my PC to the SID displyed and the leased IP address appears on the watch. On the ODIN window I do not get any indication that it is actually connected to the watch and infact the watch start displaying red messages "Connection timed out: failed to connect". Of course nothing happens when i push the Start button on Odin. Any suggestion?

PS: I do not have any firewall on my PC.

In theory this is no panic... simple not connected...

Did you read PDF I posted earlier?

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=73503787&postcount=150

I have managed my funny Home Network in this case...

Old Notebook + USB WiFi from Fritz...

So my USB stick direct communicate with my SM-R732...

The "problem" is static IP...

Read again the PDF...

I hope this could help you...

To play with Router and so on is maybe more complicated... as if you use Notebook and interenal WiFi or you have USB WiFi Stick...

Or you have friends or family who can help you...

[Samsung Gear S2] ermoscat:
Eventually i managed to flash the BOKK firmware which solved the original problem. The connection issue between odin and gear was caused by a wrong odin version. Thanks everybody for the support.

Use RSD lite (you can easily find that instruction at XDA) and full image from here: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=889964283620757667

It won't be possible to relock CN version with EU firmware, so just skip this step

Recently Samsung came out with the Samsung SmartThings link. This is a USB type dongle to be plugged into an NVIDIA Shield TV that functions like a Samsung SmartThings Hub. Since this is a lot cheaper than a hub and can do the same things, it is obviously a useful device (can be currently had for $10 after coupon "SHIELDLINK" on SmartThings website)

I'm sure it's limitation to the Nvidia Shield TV has nothing to do with Hardware but rather software. It works through the Samsung SmartThings link app on the Android TV. This app when side-loaded opens and says your Android TV is not supported. Is someone able to Port this over to any Android TV?

There is a post by Android Police with more details. I can't post links according to XDA so please search.

Here's the APK file on APK mirror (sorry can't post links according to XDA)

It's called SmartThings for NVIDIA SHIELD TV

Hi all,

This is my first Huawei phone. I noticed that brightness of the screen will reduce (darken) for some apps, eg fb, chrome, dialer, even the auto brightness is unchecked. Do you experience the same?
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] gm007:
It's a feature to prolong battery, all Huawei phones has it.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] Auban80:
Yeah ok, thanks.

How do I get rid of the "feature"?

It's making the phone completely rubbish to use.

If I turn "Auto brightness" ON, the phone adjusts the brightness according to the lighting conditions around it (the screen does NOT go dim when launching apps).

If I turn "Auto brightness" OFF, the phone DIMS the screen when launching apps.

Come on HUAWEI!!! If I want the screen to auto adjust, I will set it to auto adjust.

:mad: :eek:

I turned off auto brightness, toggled brightness to max and used the chrome browser. The brightness remains constant. No issues for me.

I have similar issue with the one wrote here in xda - https://xdaforums.com/mate-10/help/brightness-automatically-reduced-apps-t3697589

That is even with the auto brightness ticked-off and smart screen feature also off, the screen will automatically dim after few seconds I opened the Facebook app for example.

I tried opening the Hi-Care app but it doesn't has this problem.

Can Huawei fix this very annoying bug soon?

I believe majority of users would not affected by this because they set their brightness less than 50%. But for those who prefer bright screen like me, this is extremely annoying feature even it said to help prolong battery life!

[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] jayb082:
Same exact problem here on my Mate 10 Pro - first noticed it a couple days ago, after i had the phone for a day or two. It's a very slight change - I mainly notice it in Chrome and Facebook. Some apps do it, but not all. Basically, when you launch the app, the whites are normal brightness according to your set brightness, then within half a second, it dims just slightly - like 10-20%. Then if you press the home button, you can see a slight change again to normal brightness as the app fades out. Not the end of the world but still a bit annoying. I never noticed this with my Mate 9 (which didn't get Oreo yet). Would be nice to have a fix for this.

The "adaptive brightness" is bugged and dims the screen on certain applications, regardless of what options you have turned on or off. Huawei confirmed it is an EMUI issue. Who knows if they'll actually resolve it as they don't see it as a major issue.

It was major enough for me that I sold my Huawei Mate 10 after a few days.
