yep, that's what I've been saying for months. I've never used anything but TWRP to flash my phone. I've downgraded, gone custom and back to stock many times.

[MENTION=7836738]urupz@@[/MENTION]

I flash OTA's through TWRP every time there's an update.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] urupz@@:
When my phone still in 6.0.1, flashed OTA's throgh twrp it said 'not correct phone...' but after upgraded 7.0 it succeeded although i don't need it anymore.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] wang1chung:
edit your updater-script and it'll flash no problem.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] vEEGAZ:
Yeah that's what I encountered aswell back 2-3 years ago, I remember I couldn't flash any OTAs via TWRP but apparently now you can. That's why I also used Flashfire in the first place but after running out of all options for the wi-fi problem I decided to give TWRP a try et voilà, it worked :D
[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] urupz@@:
I've tried that and still not working.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] wang1chung:
[MENTION=7836738]urupz@@[/MENTION]

I JUST did it....on 1711.75 now. There was no recovery partition update either so I didn't have to reflash TWRP after :good:

I did have a bootloop issue after but fixed that by flashing the no-verity file. I'm not sure if that's related to having magisk installed though.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] urupz@@:
1. After reflashing rom through twrp, i lost my twrp. Oh, but when i use Flasfire, it isn't lost.

2. Not sure but after flashing ROM your boot will change to normal so it may not related to magisk or supersu. Maybe it beacause of the twrp, i've tried reflash stock recovery once and i can updated it without flash no-verity file though i've installed magisk.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] wang1chung:
1. You will only lose TWRP if there is a recovery partition update in the stock firmware, yes, but that doesn't happen with every update. I think I read of a way to block it from updating the recovery partition but can't find the article right now. If flashfire works, use it, I just like TWRP for the other features like making and restoring nandroid backups.

2. I dirty flashed the update again through TWRP, verified the bootloop issue and then installed magisk (through TWRP) and it resolved the bootloop issue. No-verify file not required.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] urupz@@:
1.Ok, i got it.

2. The way using TWRP is keep the root ( root or not boot) and stock recovery is contrary ( can't root but will boot) or just flash custom kernel through twrp (not root required).
[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] bibile:
simple question :

- you are talking about OTA & Firmware...

I've downloaded again from asus website Version WW-V14.2020.1711.75 (I assume it is the latest firmware). Are you simply giving the example of an OTA that is released post the firmware version I have to install to have the 7.0 base?

Or is it anything that I'm missing...

From your explanations I should only :

- install flashfire

- flash the latest firmware

- boot into TWRP & flash no verity

- reboot the system

Right?
[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] vEEGAZ:
Yep, you can also flash the latest .zip via TWRP instead of using Flashfire, it's 100% working for me. Just REMEMBER to flash the no-verity file otherwise you'll end up in a bootloop.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] ktl20:
I have newest oreo fw from asus website. Ive unlocked bootloader with official app. Now i want WTRP and root with magisk. I want to know how to flash updates to get all wroking?

1. Flash TWRP via fastboot?

2. Flash Magisk via TWRP?

3. When update will release i must flash whole fw from asus website with TWRP and then no-verity file to boot?

4. Or can i use flashfire app to flash fw from asus website and then no-verity zip?

What is the best solution to have updated system without use PC? Step by step guide will be great THX
[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] iamROOTX:
Im confuse.

Im using 1711.75 with magisk 15.3 and twrp 3.2.1.0

I have the full firmware of initial oreo

I just have to install flashfire

Flash the full firmware oreo that i have then rboot to twrp to flash no verify zip?
[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] Eng.Raman:
The safest and true way to flash any ota update without any issues by using stock recovery, don't use twrp or flashfire or any other apps.

follow the steps below:

1. When you are rooted and twrp installed, to getback to full stock boot and recovery without wiping data, flash the latest raw image available. For oreo the latest available one for ze520kl is WW_ZE520KL_15.0410.1712.31_M3.10.47.16_Phone-user.raw.zip.

2. Now flash the ota update available normally via stock recovery.

3. Flash oreo support twrp-3.2.1-0 and magisk zip.

4. Done.

I'm periodically upload the latest available ota update for ze520kl in the ze520kl ota update links thread.

Here is the latest one.

Can someone please give me links for stock recovery.img and boot.img from The latest oreo fw (40) ze520kl?
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] seugene:
What even is the point of this setting? Shouldn't the device determine which will give better call quality, and use THAT, silently?

Which should I check? :confused: It's confusing. :(

Assuming no international / roaming situations here.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] WaxysDargle:
I always set it to cellular preferred because WiFi call quality tends to fluctuate more than cellular. I have always found WiFi calling to be too unstable for day to day use.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] jhs39:
The setting is probably there partly because not all carriers support WiFi Calling and the ones that do don't necessarily support it on all phones. You should enable the setting and make a call at home where you presumably have a strong WiFi connection. If the call is made via WiFi it will say that on the dialer screen. If the call quality is good then I would use the WiFi preferred function. The phone will only use WiFi to make calls when the WiFi signal is very strong or where you have WiFi but poor to no cell signal. I have WiFi Preferred enabled and have never had a poor quality phone call as a result of it.

[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] TravisH997:
If you get EX Kernel Manager you can enable a notification that will show percentage drain per hour when both active and idle! Sounds like 4-5% drain an hour though, not especially good. I'm sure you could get it down even farther! Check out ForceDoze.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] shivadow:
The battery in the u11 is very good and a good addition to it is the htc app "boost+" from the playstore as it controls apps in both foreground and background, also it can change resolution of apps and games to save more power.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] safa786:
Is there any way i can uninstall netcf from rom..
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] jdc:
Sure.

Pick apart the ROM, remove the parts you don't want, recook and reflash it. :)

Seriously, that's the only way to remove something that is baked into a ROM.

It's nice to have a bunch of apps preloaded into a ROM, but I personally prefer to have a 'lite' ROM and just install stuff after the flash. It takes more time to get everything back up to where I want it, but it makes keeping the device up to date much easier.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] Bolivian6:
Hi everyone.

I come here beacause I recently received my Mate 10 pro. It's quite perfect, but I've got an issue with it.

It's a kind of compatibility thing I guess, between youtube and messenger.

To explain it in the easier way, when I'm using both apps, the phone crashes and lock itself automatically. For example when I'm using youtube and I receive a messenger notification, the phone crashes and go to the lockscreen. When I unlock it, I'm still on youtube but no sign of messenger.

Another example: when I've got a Messenger Bubble on the screen, I open the youtube app. And when I'm shutting down the messenger bubble (with YouTube on the background) , the phone go the the lockscreen again...

I went to the settings, I thought it was related to the application overlay but it's not the case...

If someone has an idea I take It. And If some users of the mate 10 pro can try this on his own phone, I would be pleased.

Thanks by advance.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] VChabrette:
OH MY GOD, THANK YOU

I really began to think I was the only one having this bug, and I feel so relieved right now, not being the only one.

Sadly, I tried various things, I even dug in logcat to find some clues, but sadly I did not managed to find any relevant error.

I would be really glad to further discuss about this issue, and now I can go to Huawei saying I'm not the only one (I also found 1 other French guy discussing this topic on another forum, not finding any solution)

I'm really pissed off by this issue, and would be glad if I could help in any way.

PS: English is not my native language so sorry in advance if anything of what I said seems unclear.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] VChabrette:
Hi everyone !

I came back just to correct something : I am able to obtain logs of the error.

In fact, when I was browsing logcat, I was doing it on the wrong phone (common mistake when you have 2 devices connected to the same PC)

So, in fact, I'm able to tell that the exact error creating this crazy mess is this one :

I don't know if this could help us, but this is definitely the reason of our crashes
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] VIN0130:
Same Problem on mine

Hi Guys,

I have the same problem. My phone gets locked and there is no other means for me to unlock it but to restart my phone. I have Mate 10 as well, there is no problem like this. Only in Pro version.

For time being, I disabled my Messenger Chat Heads and rely on the standard view to prevent this problem. Let us hope a fix will be done soon. We just do not know it is issue from youtube or messenger or the phone software itself.

Regards
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] VChabrette:
Hi VIN0130 !

After showing the logs to an Android engineering colleague, he seemed to confirm what I originally thought, being that the bug is OS related.

In fact, it looks like the phone is destroying a Messenger view, thinking it became useless to the app, which leads to the NullPointerException when Messenger tries to access this view.

So, it may have something to do with, for example, the phone trying to optimize the battery usage of background apps execution...

Of course, it's just a superficial analysis, not having access to any source code of the concerned actors (Messenger, Youtube, or even the OS), but It may be a lead...
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] VIN0130:
HI VC...

Thanks for the info. My only doubt is that why in Mate 10 (not the Pro) doesn't have this problem. It has same specs with the Pro except the Amoled type and Screen Resolution.

I think there could be an issue on Full Screen Option with the Pro which is causing the problem. And I wonder why it goes to lock screen when I receive a message in Messenger if Chat Head is active.

BR
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] VChabrette:
Indeed, it's kinda odd that the Mate 10 doesn't have this issue, I would have thought it was a bug in EMUI 8, not depending on the device...

Maybe it is in fact a weird combination between having a full screen app with video embedded inside, but there's nothing I'm sure of...

I can't remember the resolution of the Mate 10 screen ; do you ? Discussing with my colleague, I've been told that, maybe, the video app is taking too much memory, which would lead to this background view destruction I was referring earlier (to free up memory and optimize battery usage).

So maybe video is taking much more memory on the 10 Pro than on the other one. I was thinking about its HDR display too, which is supported, if I remember quite well, by YouTube and the native Huawei video player, the two apps that lead to this bug on my phone.

I'm really trying to guess what is happening here, but It's cleary not something we could handle by ourselves, even with the right skills (unless by flashing our device with another ROM ha ha ha).

So, I think our only chance is to bring Huawei's attention to this issue ☹️
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] VIN0130:
Hello Again...

I have just received an official update. It seems the issue has been fixed with the new fw update. I just tried youtube + messenger (chat head active) for about 5x, my phone didn't locked.

+1 here.

With the youtube app in the foreground, when I get new message on fb messenger the phone freezes and I have to restart it. Even when I do so, the phone restarts to its default properties with the wallpaper, the system icons etc.

It is unacceptable to me that a phone that costs 700+ euros and has 6 gb RAM has behavior like this. Disabling the chat heads is not an option since I want to be able to use the phone to the fullest.

[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] 26kick:
Hi all,

My wife and I are thinking that project fi might be too expensive for us with the amount of data that we use. If we Port over to T-Mobile, will my wife's Moto X4 work and be full featured? I mean things like simultaneous talk/surf (very important) and wifi calling?

I have the Pixel 2 XL and I'm pretty sure that it would work on TMobile with all of the above mentioned features.

Thank you!
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] rmnelson97403:
Yes, it will work. I used mine on TMO briefly. My wife used her Pixel 1 as well and all features work as expected.

Neither of your phones has the new Band 71 that TMO has started to roll out, but for the next couple of years you should be fine. I believe that there is only one phone available right now that will work on Band 71.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] 26kick:
Great! What carrier did you end up with?

Also, when you tried the Moto X4, was that the Android One version?
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] rmnelson97403:
I've got an Xfinity Mobile (Verizon) SIM in it right now. I purchased the phone from FI, so it is the Android One version. Fi trained me to minimize data usage, and I'm able to stay within the 100MB free allowance at XM. Total cost per month is $2.39 taxes/fees. Yes, I am a skinflint.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] enriquejones666:
Wait, how did you get an XM sim without buying one of their phones? If I can bring my A1 MotoX4 to XM, I'm switching.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] rmnelson97403:
They had the LG Charge phone on sale for $1 in August so I bought one. The ultimate cheapskate deal! The LG is surprisingly good with tremendous battery life, but I use Android Pay and the LG doesn't do NFC. I use the LG now as a remote control for video, and also keep it around in case I have trouble with the SIM since XM will not deal with BYOD at all.

The X4 works fine with the Verizon SIM that XM uses although I've heard of trouble with visual VM. That isn't a problem for me since I use a Google Voice number for everything and never use the XM number. XM doesn't support wifi calling either, but since I'm using GV that isn't a problem for me either. My use case may be atypical, but for me XM and X4 work fine together.

Hi everyone,

I have a huge problem with my Huawei Mate 8.

I was using Android 6.0 without any problems, but as soon as I updated to Android 7.0 I experience sudden huge battery drops. And I mean really huge. For example in 2-3 seconds it can go from 50% to 2-3% and shut down.

If I leave it for 3-4 minutes and then start it again it goes back to normal.

I saw some recommendations about factory reset, so I have performed factory reset on the phone but the problem still exists.

The build number is NXT-L29C432B581

This type behaviour usually occurs when a battery cell becomes damaged. It is then not a software related issue but a hardware one, the solution would be to replace the damaged battery with a healthy one.
[Mate 8 General] philipisaia:
to be honest, that was my first thought, but this problem began immediately after upgrading to 7.0. Not a week after, not a day after. Before that my battery was perfect. It was able to last 1.5days with the wifi and mobile data on, and never have this huge drop. I would expect it to have extensive drain before getting damaged, or at least show some signs.
