[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] burduli:
Hello guys.

I'm going to buy used and bootloader unlocked Verizon Pixel tomorrow and I'm interested in couple of things:

1. Can I flash all the ROMs that are available for Pixel on Verizon version too?

2. Can I properly install TWRP, root using Magisk, etc?

3. Can I properly flash (and downgrade if needed) official system images (and are they ever available for Verizon models?)

4. Can I take part in Android Beta program?

5. Is there anything I should be afraid of?

Thanks in advance.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] TonikJDK:
Make sure it is bootloader unlocked, and not just SIM unlocked. There are not many VZ ones around that are bootloader unlocked. You need that to do the items on you list.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] burduli:
As I already stated, bootloader is already unlocked.

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] KittyRgnarok:
If it's bootloader u locked then yeah u can do all those things. Just do not ever for any reason ever relock the bootloader. Also I believe there have been a few cases where ppl have had semibricks or other issues which required locked stock to fix or somehow resulted in locked stock
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] nolefty:
I got a replacement about a month ago on my small Pixel and that one was unlocked. However, the one I got from Verizon in store did not have an unlocked bootloader. I'm not sure what the deal is, but maybe getting a replacement from an "accidental" break might do the trick. just to clarify, my first Pixels' usb port got completely fried and started to smell bad whenever it charged, and the phone would get really hot. I am now on 8.1 with an unlocked bootloader but have yet to actually root the phone

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rmegaxx:
I installed this rom: (https://xdaforums.com/g4/development/h815-nougat-stock-t3659860) the correct way through TWRP and having an unlocked bootloader and then the rom worked well, but then i thought i still had the TWRP as a recovery so i tried to enter the recovery mode by pressing power button+lower volume button. afterwards i clicked twice yes. so the phone rebooted and the rom didn't work anymore. So tried to find a solution by searching XDA forums and the internet. Since my previous version was MM i found LGUP which could restore the phone to its previous ROM. however i am now having issues with LG UP. i tried several methods:

the 1st one was: from https://xdaforums.com/g4/...mm-lp-t3249803 with the H81520D_00_0115.kdz file and the DLL files which came with the software itself. This always led me to 25% after which LG UP would crash and give a "error code = 0x2000 invalid command response at system". then i tried a different DLL from: https://xdaforums.com/g4/...-file-t3586220 #6 which led me to have the error at 11%.

the 2nd one was: from https://xdaforums.com/g4/...-h815-t3673777 #6-#11 so tried this method with these DLL files and by reinstalling LG UP and the driver, also by using the H81520p_00_0314.kdz file. but now i have the issue that LGUP gets stuck at 4% "USB connection established" and will automatically close the program and windows will show me that "LGUP has stopped working".

the 3rd one was: using LG bridge and hoping it will reset the phone. but nothing it just says that the phone has no software issues and that i have the latest software which is H81529a.

Lastly i tried to get flash twrp-3.1.1-1-g4.img through fastboot and was able to flash the recovery by using "fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.1-1-g4.img", however i was not able to get into the recovery because when i typed "fastboot boot twrp-3.1.1-1-g4.img" i would get an error (can be seen in the picture). so i tried to enter the recovery manually by pressing power button+lower volume button, and releasing the power button for 1 second and the pressing the powerbutton again, afterwards i clicked twice yes in the white screen, but this got me to download mode and not into TWRP (can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xai6_8T8BgI)

I am now stuck and don't know what to do, and was hoping you guys could help me? I am using a PC with WIN 10 and i can boot into Fastboot mode and Download mode

[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RgDiabl0:
Hello !

I'm having troubles with my girlfriend's Honor 7 (was previously mine). I ordered a free SIM from a french operator that gives 10Go of free data to test their network but I can't make it work !

It is the PLK-L01 version. It works when I only activates the second SIM (I can use the 10Go free data) but when I activate the first SIM, the second one is saying "No services".

Is this a modem problem ? Do I have to flash a new version of the modem ?

Thank you for your help ;)

when trying to unlock the bootloader always has this message (failed to get unlock data please try again) and the only possibility of resolving this error is to flash the equivalent or higher bootloader of a ROM retasia 7.0 [CLARK_RETASIA_DS_7.0_NPHS25.200-15-3_cid7_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip] but the link is premium [http://gsmsolution.org/file-by-model.php?modelId=8962], Someone knows how to unlock the link or know of another where you can download this firmware

[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
Any link where you need to pay to download a factory firmware image is questionable at best... I would highly doubt it's authenticity.

We do not have the Nougat images for any device except the Moto X Pure Edition (XT1575, retus), which just leaked this weekend.

The fact this leaked lends to the possibility we may see other models soon, but it doesn't necessary mean that will happen... Firmware leaks from Moto are few and far between now days. Follow Moto Firmware Team on Twitter for the most up to date info, all leaked firmware seems to come from them in the last several months.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vndnguyen:
I recommend to flash a stock firmware instead of this custom rom.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] perosredo:
Thanks for stopping by.

I flashed the stock PG1 firmware for the GLW CSC. But the device still thinks it's BMC - this probably has something to do with all the Canadian devices sharing identical hardware and firmware.

Then I used your tool to change the CSC to GLW. All of the CSCs remained BMC except for Active CSC which was BMC/GLW. After a couple reboots even that was gone and Active CSC reverted to BMC.

Do I maybe need the stock recovery for the CSC changes to stick ? I flashed TWRP 3.1.1 for root.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vndnguyen:
So your problem is to get LTE back, or get rid of BMC?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] perosredo:
I'd like to do both if possible but I'm not going to sweat over the CSC if it's purely cosmetic - mainly concerned about the LTE.

I wouldn't be surprised if they are linked however since the carriers here operate LTE on different bands to the best of my knowledge.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vndnguyen:
So firstly try to install the stock BMC firmware to see if the LTE works?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] perosredo:
Long story short, LTE isn't yet available in this location on this carrier on a Note3-supported band yet.

So that's that.
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] allegro16:
Hi,

Yesterday my nephew wanted to show me a cool trick, getting to the settings menu. Although i had seen that already, i let him..

If only i hadn't, as he clicked on the radioband button with only "US" as a choice, and now i can't receive calls or call out myself.

As i can't risk losing data, i can't reflash, there is just too much i can't backup (Like Google Authenticator, i would have to disable it on 50+ accounts first)

So found the following link https://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Z1-Compact/WARNING-Never-Change-Radio-Band/td-p/905055/page/4, where all you need is ADB and your phone in fastboot / bootloader.. So, i have my Z5 in Developer mode, enabled USB Debugging (Also tried OEM unlocking as well), installed the latest ADB ( I tried both "Minimal ADB and Fastboot" and "platform-tools-latest-windows") and installed the "latest_usb_driver_windows". (After Phone started in fastboot, updated the S1.. Fastboot hardware drivers with the ones downloaded)

All seems OK, devices are found, but after i give the commands i get:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>adb reboot bootloader

C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot erase modemst1

erasing 'modemst1'...

FAILED (command write failed (Unknown error))

finished. total time: 0.002s

C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot erase modemst2

erasing 'modemst2'...

FAILED (command write failed (Unknown error))

finished. total time: 0.002s

C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot erase cache

erasing 'cache'...

FAILED (command write failed (Unknown error))

finished. total time: 0.001s

All that works is: fastboot reboot..

It looks like the phone doesn't accept the commands, as even when i try a not existing one like "fastboot erase notexistingfolder, i get the same response..

Is it the software on my Xperia Z5, 7.1.1 (32.4.A.1.54)?

Is it my Windows version (W10 Pro x64, 1709)?

Do i need a special/other ADB+driver combo? I already installed the Sony Android .inf (disabled Driver Signing)

I used ADB before, never run in so much problem getting it going.. It doesn't need to have a unlocked bootloader for this, right?

As anything like that defeats the purpose of restoring calls without erasing the device..

Any help is appreciated. Willing to install W7/8 if needed to get it to work or use some sort of bootable W7/disk..

Thanks, allegro16
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] filjusz:
You are fu*ked up! To use fastboot commands you have to unlock phone bootloader first, so you will loose data (as boot unlock always factory reset phone)
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] allegro16:
That would indeed be the case then.. I'll wait for Sony Mobile support.. If it's THIS easy to set the band to US, it should be easy to reset for them as well, right?

If i'm forced to reset / erase the Z5 in any way, i might as well change brands again and get a new unit.. At least then i can copy everything over piece by piece in time..

Thanks anyway.

Hi all,

On my Kaiser, if I forget to unmute my phone before starting TomTom 6, I can't actually adjust my volume. The trick I used with my 8125 was to go to the Today screen and tap the volume control. On the Kaiser, touching the screen brings me back to tomtom, even if the today screen is displayed.

I remember finding a replacement exe for TomTom that unmuted the phone when it started and restored your former setting when you quit, but I can't find it even though I've searched for an hour. Help?

Thanks!

-n.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Stay0Puft:
When I forget to turn on the volume, I slide open my Kaiser and press the Fn key together with the folder button (bottom right). From there, you're able to adjust the volume :)

But I guess it is indeed better if the volume gets adjusted automatically...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] XtreMe_G:
??? wats the folder button???
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Stay0Puft:
It's that "Right Arrow" button. When you first press Fn (bottom left), all the blue symbols on your keyboard can be activated.

There is a blue icon of a folder on the Right Arrow key.

So press Fn and right arrow and you're in Windows again (and able to adjust the volume).

Then use your task manager to get back in TomTom.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] gavink:
Same problem for me with my Tilt. But, there's no folder icon on my keyboard to try your suggestion. The only way I've found is to exit TomTom, unmute the phone and start it again.

Anyone find a fix for use on the Tilt?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] XtreMe_G:
ah, i see, on the tilts, that key toggles wifi on/off
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] osunick:
Found it!

http://www.aximsite.com/boards/gps-talk/140969-tomtom-6-volume-override-loader.html

This loader unmutes your phone when you launch tomtom, and restores your mute when you close. (it's smart about restoring the previous state, so it won't mute if you weren't muted before launching tomtom)

Incidentally, I have some useful links in my del.icio.us bookmarks tagged with 'windowsmobile'

http://del.icio.us/osunick/windowsmobile

(disclaimer: I'm a product manager on del.icio.us)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Fully:
Hitting the phone "Hang up" button works to get back to the home screen.. you can then tap the TomTom icon bottom right to bring it back.

Fully
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] osunick:
Have you tried this? Getting to the home screen is not the problem, it's that touching any part of the screen, including the volume control, puts you back in tomtom, thus making volume changes very difficult.
