Hi there,

I was really frustrated when my favourite Nexus 5X got freezed and bootlooped, There weren't even any complete boot sometimes,Just it kept on and off. All I have seen was Google logo, and rarely some boot animations. Eventually, it turned off with in few seconds. I tried to flash 4 core kernals, and almost all stock roms. (6,7,and 8) but nothing worked!Strangely, I could boot a little by using this image 7.1.2 (N2G48C, Aug 2017). However that too turned off with in 2-3 minutes. I tried everything I could on the software part. So I decided to open my phone , after watching few YouTube videos I decided to try some what similar to copper heat sink mod, but I used Aluminium plate instead of copper. I cut it from some Aluminium fabrication left out,

First, I removed the yellow net like thermal pad from phone very carefully, I didn't want to destroy it.Then I applied thermal paste on both side of the prepared Aluminium plate and placed the exact place where yellow thermal pad was situated. I removed the outer covering of the motherboard CPU as well as cleaned all chip sets by using PCB alcohol. Then applied thermal paste over nearby chips . There after, I carefully applied thermal paste over the main CPU , and fixed the yellow thermal pad from LG above the CPU. I meticulously reattached the outer covering of the CPU and other chip sets.( I didn't cut the metal like covering, because I didn't want to damage any components of my phone) Then placed the motherboard above the Aluminium plate that I already fixed inside the phone.( Previously, Yellow thermal pad was here). Closed my phone , reattached all screws and turned it on.. Wow its working for me now! Running all 6 cores without any issue. I believe the yellow thermal pad and Aluminium plate combo effectively tackling the heat issue. It might be working the same way like a computer CPU works, thermal pad+ heat sink. When I placed the yellow thermal pad above the chip set and Aluminium plate where thermal pad was present, it worked perfectly.I tried to place 2 Aluminium plates combo without thermal pad, it added more stress to the CPU also never worked. May be Copper is a great alternative , but for me Aluminium was readily available and easy to cut just by using a scissor. Now I don't want to update to Oreo and more. I opened developer options and turned off automatic system updates, and also turned off all notifications. It's been 2 days since I modded my phone. Still it's working without any problems. So I thought It would be nice if I post it here. :)

Can you make some pictures inside phone
[Nexus 5X General] curiousbeing:
Sorry, I don't want to open my phone again and end up in another boot loop, but this video is very helpful.

hxxps:.youtube.com/watch?v=TTHAbarHebg

Main points to note,

1. I didn't use Copper plate, I used Aluminium plate.

2. I didn't cut the metal like shield that covered the CPU,because I don't like to damage my phone.

3. I didn't discard the yellow thermal pad like others did, Instead I fixed it above the CPU/RAM chip by using thermal paste.

4.Everything else is almost the same.

Please be careful with the phone components , its really fragile. :)
[Nexus 5X General] slobo2712:
Sorry but i dont understand how did you fixed with that method.You have not soldered chip or anything,that can maybe only "prevent" working device to bootloop?Someone correct me if i am wrong.Tnx
[Nexus 5X General] curiousbeing:
No, I didn't replace any chip or soldering crack :confused: , I have used my phone rigorously since this mod. Phone is working great, and I feel it is working better now than ever before. :o

All I used, high quality thermal pad from graphics card chip set,good thermal conductive metal and a heat sink. Probably the CPU is shutting down to protect itself,due to intense heat, If a thermal pad and heat sink combo can effectively regulate heat then the CPU would work. I am running all 6 cores without any issue, I have continuously watched 2 movies but it still worked perfectly. If we remove the CPU fan from a working computer motherboard, computer would not boot even if it boots it will shut down quickly or freeze, and slowly it will damage the CPU, the same problem is happening here too. :D

Even if there was a crack, I heated the chip set and fixed it temporarily, then used this heat sink mod, the mod is not allowing the CPU to fail again because it can now conduct the heat effectively to another medium, thereby the crack problem is not happening again, as a result of this phone is working fine now.

Wow, so your phone is previously bootlooping and you attempted these steps then it works permanently? That’s amazing! Is your phone still working?

[Nextbit Robin] jump012:
Good morning? Still no effect. I wanted to solve it myself, but it was not. Includes fast boot mode. But the process is too difficult. It is too difficult to remove due to an unknown error during the update. My situation is terrible.

OEM unlock is not allowed and the boot loader is locked. OEM locks were not allowed, so they waited more than 10 hours in this state and failed. An attempt was made to unlock the boot loader, but failed because the OEM lock was not allowed. Before using Robin ..... I keep failing. I'm sorry I can not speak English. I tried to talk to Nextbit Forum but it failed. But still would like to use the next bit robin ....... OEM locks are not allowed and they are broken forever? ... I can not flash an image and I can not unlock it.

Can you boot into Nextbit OS?
[Nextbit Robin] jump012:
yes !
[Nextbit Robin] xBane_:
Go to about phone in settings and tap on the build number a bunch of times.

Go back to the main settings page and click on the new 'developer options' menu.

Enable OEM Unlocking in that menu, and then go into the bootloader and fastboot oem unlock.

Bretheren -

I have a crazy problem that has been going on now for a week - neither the green "send" button nor the "answer" soft key will pick up the incoming call on the handset. I have no issue when I answer via my Jawbone. I am running No2Chem's '47 build, and when hard resetting, it works fine. Obviously something has changed in my registry since loading my progs.

Anyone have an idea if and where this setting is located in the registry? Thanks in advance!!!

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] meatlocker:
Resolved with a hard reset and reload of proggies. I sure would like to know how to overcome this in the future, though, without having to resort to drastic measures.

I have the same problem. I'm probably going to end up waiting and hard resetting when Sprint releases the upgrade ROM -- I'm too chicken to try a cooked ROM on my only phone.

It started sometime after installing one of these (I installed all 3 in the same night). I know, I know... Bad idea in the first place.

Here are the other apps I have installed, but the list is so long it may not help at all. This is the list of installers and not the list of apps reported by uninstall. If I listed it as '(uninstalled)' then it was installed and removed since my last hard reset sometime last September.

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] N715DP:
I am betting it's this one:

Schaps_AdvancedConfig_v2.0.2.0.CAB

I flashed to a newer DCD after posting in this thread and I did NOT install the above program again - phone works like a champ.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] frostiex:
I am not sure if it is the samething,....I used to have lots of problem with my phone. I've only used the DCD versions since 2.0.0 and was about to give up. However, when DCD released the 2.3.2 kitchen without the telus roms available at that moment. I though I would cook one up, and since then, I have not looked back. I install the same programs and it has been working perfectly for about a week now... {touch wood}

I used to have a lot of problem described in this thread as well as not connecting via active sync. Since then everything is working as it should.

So, I am not sure it it has to do with my own cooked rom...but it sure seems like it as my phone have never worked this good since I got it on day one.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] waashew:
Update::

I finally got tired of waiting for the new Official ROM while forcing my friends to wait for me to call them back and did a Hard Reset back to 2.09.651.3. Phone answers every call for me now! Wooo Whoo!! I need to perfect my skill at this hard resetting for when the new ROM is released. It took me 3 hours to finish getting everything set back like I wanted it, although kudos to the PPCPimBackupV2.8_wm2005.zip for saving my data (although I would have liked a warning that it will only restore email data AFTER you create the email account - doh!)

Again, these are the three apps that were installed just before my phone quit letting me answer calls. I didn't re-install these three after the hard reset:

photocontacts_ppc_v305_ms_signed.cab - trial - my first bet since it took over the phone (uninstalled now, but still no fix)

Schaps_AdvancedConfig_v2.0.2.0.CAB (uninstalled, but still no fix)

Oh poor apps, I had you installed for some reason. Maybe someday, I'll remember why and give you life again.

I am still trying to decide which contact manager to use. I'll probably try RandomAccess next...

I had a lot of apps installed and uninstalled before the problem surfaced. I'm now betting the culprit was the AdvancedConfig as it seems to be cropping up in too many of these broken answering "feature" threads.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] waashew:
Oh one more thing...

I installed the AdvancedConfig to my wife's phone before I received any calls to notice the problem and she has had no issues with non-answerable calls.

Only difference I could see was that in my phone, AdvancedConfig had settings for HSPDA and also for GPS enable and hers did not. The phones are supposed to be identical. We bought them at the same time, both had problems and got exchanged in the same week. Both of hers came with a differently oriented power supply (cord came out the side of the wall socket plug whereas mine hung down from the socket) even though they were picked up in the same store in the same week.

So while I am quick to blame AdvancedConfig, it's still installed in her phone and she has not had the issue.

Hello all!

This is my first ever topic on here so I apologize in advance if it the wrong section.

Since yesterday I've been having a really weird problem with the camera on my Galaxy S6.

The problem is that the phone won't focus far object.. But works perfectly fine when doing macro/close up photos..

I searched for a solution online.. but.. For some reason everyone is having the opposite problem... Can't do macro photos but can focus perfectly objects that are far..

Anyway.. I'm uploading two images so you could get an idea about the problem.
