[General Questions and Answers] GWARslave119:
Why is the owner of a phone not allowed admin access? Is there some kind of contract or agreement or whatever between phone companies and/or mobile processor mfg's with Google to where the owner of a phone is not allowed full access? I get that if you buy a phone thru say T-Mobile with good credit and pay month to month, or get a free phone for switching to a company, or some other offer, that you are restricted, but it should be like a person who buys or builds their own computer. You are the owner, the admin, and can do whatever you want to your PC, with all the risks and voided warranties at the fault of the owner, whether it's overclocking, bad BIOS configs, viruses, etc. What makes buying a phone at full price not becoming the rightful owner of it? There's so many things you can't do (easily), like delete programs you don't want, change your resolution (not dpi), overclock (or at least fiddle with options like in BIOS), that anyone should be able to do (doesn't mean because you can, you should, but that should be up to the user's discretion). And then of course there's several phones that just aren't rootable, which doesn't seem legally right for someone who paid in full the price of a phone. Unless the price of a phone includes shared ownership of it in some small writing somewhere...
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyrus104:
I have a US Oneplus2 that is stuck on the animation when it boots. I can get into TWRP and Fastboot, latest TWRP works and can also use an older version that I had.

I made a TWRP backup that I pulled off onto another computer. I then installed OOS 3.5.1 (I think) to do some testing. Once I was done testing, I decided I wanted the latest lineage as my backup was a 6 month old version of the latest at that time. I used TWRP to wipe the data, cache, and system to then install the latest Lineage 14.1 11/24/17 and gapps mini and micro (tested both). It gets to the lineage boot animation and the ball goes back and forth forever. I have left it over night and it's still going. I have rebooted the device, installed lineage several times, moved to 12/1/17 today with the same results.

After messing with it for hours and days, I decided to just put the TWRP backup back on the phone and then update from there. Well... my custom animation is load but the animation is also going forever.

Looking for some help on what might be wrong with the phone, thanks.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pops106:
Make sure everything is formatted as ext4 and update firmware to 3.6.1 just to rule it out.

I would use the latest twrp.

I go to format tick all the boxes and clear everything then go to reboot > recovery. Once back in twrp copy the ROM and gapps across from pc install ROM and gapps together, wipe cache and dalvik reboot.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyrus104:
I'm in the process of doing that now.

The TWRP that I'm using is 3.1.1-0 which looks to be the latest. I am working with OOS 3.5.8 but will look at downloading 3.6.1. I am working to get Lineage 14.1 on there once everything is stable.

I ran into another weird is when using the qualcomm recovery tool:

My method is to enable ADB, enable OEM Unlock, enable Advanced Reboot.

Reboot into fastboot

Fastboot oem unlock: is successful

Fastboot reboot

I then go through renabling ADB and Advanced Reboot, OEM Unlock is still enabled.

I then reboot into fastboot

Fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.1-0-oneplus2.img

This completes successfully and then I fastboot reboot.

I have tried several times to get into TWRP but I keep getting the stock recovery.

I have tried to reflash recovery but nothing ever changes.

Is there possibly something wrong with the OEM unlock that says it was successful?

How do I go about troubleshooting this?
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyrus104:
Ok, I fixed that and install OOS 3.6.1 and then was able to install TWRP 3.1.1-0.

I then wanted to install Lineage 14.1:

I then formatted Cache, System, Data, Dalvik... everything but internal. Should I wipe internal as well?

I copied over linage 14.1 and open_gapps for the same build micro.

I now am back to getting the Lineage Boot animation.

Thanks for helping since I'm trying to get Lineage to boot.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pops106:
Internal doesn't really matter to be honest, did you check they data and system are formatted as ext4.

It is in twrp advanced wipe options.

Did it ever boot ?
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyrus104:
I did doubt check the data and system are formatted as ext4.

I let it sit for 3-4 hours and didn't see any progress.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] utkarsh102:
Try a different rom. There are a lot of lineage based roms around.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyrus104:
I tried that and am getting the same results. Even if I flash a full TWRP backup from a time when I had it known to be working it happens.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyrus104:
I've tested this with 3 different roms now. My latest attempt has been to update TWRP to 3.2.1 and then install lineage 14.1 20171208. I also tested with Paranoid and Carbon because they were near the top of my list not because I know anything about them.

The phone just never gets past the boot animation. If I reboot to recovery is there a log I can pull to see what the issue is?

Thanks
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyrus104:
Would like to see if anyone has any thoughts. If I run OOS I can use the phone but as of right now I can't use any other rom.

Is there any advanced fastboot or wipes that can be done to get it to boot. Is there any type of debugging that will show me what's happening when it tries to boot.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyrus104:
Just trying to bump this, I really need a way to debug this problem. Besides running OOS, I have a feeling this device is bricked and the mega unbrick guide doesn't work.

Also looks like if I try to put Kali on top of the base 3.5.8, the phone goes into the animation loop. So any change after OOS on the device puts it into an animation loop.

Is there a way the system or boot locked? Even thought I can TWRP anything onto the phone without errors.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pololovestreks:
Hey!

I've got the same issue it seems, phone just sticks to boot animation when flashing any other ROM than OOS 3.6.1.

Any update?

EDIT :

problem was with the persist.img

Flashed a different firm file and it was resolved
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anupritaisno1:
OOS does not refuse to boot if a mountable partition is corrupt. This is not the case with lineage. If a mountable partition is corrupt and the corresponding fstab entry does not allow lineage to format and somehow mount it then init never proceeds

Try flashing this file: https://glassrom.botstack.host/firmware/oos-3.6.1-firmware-signed.zip and try again

Note that this file reboots the device after the flash is done so don't use twrp queue to flash this file. Flash this file last

---------- Post added at 17:45 ---------- Previous post was at 17:34 ----------

Alternatively this is a method I don't recommend to beginners because they accidentally give twrp logs to devs without realising it

You can get logs by making the forcing the device to "crash" through the power button

Here's how it's done: you boot the non-booting ROM and wait for about a minute. Then press power + volume down while it's on the bootanimation. You have to hold it until you see the oneplus logo and boot to twrp

TWRP's kernel will recover the last booted kernel's log from ram and place it in /sys/fs/pstore

First you have to open the log yourself to check if it's valid. The file is console-ramoops-0. All other log files in that location are invalid for your specific issue

Now for an ordinary user this is hard. They can't tell if the log is a recovery log or a ROM log. Since we're dealing with official lineageos we assume selinux would be enforcing

You want to search for this string "permissive=1". On Linux just do cat console-ramoops-0 | grep "audit" (quotes are part of the command)

If you're on windows then you can download Linux and get the logs. Stop bothering me

If you see the string "permissive=1" in the log you have accidentally fetched a recovery log

Go back and boot again and wait for about a minute if selinux is permissive

The string should read

"permissive=0"

That means selinux is enforcing and this is indeed a ROM log

Send this log here

Anyone face these problem ?
[LeEco Le Max 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] harshjain00:
Hello. Many people wonder if they can use fingerprint without keeping any lock on phone. Answer is YES!

HOW TO DO?

1. Setup any lock (pattern or pin) and your fingerprint too ofcourse :P

2. Reboot into recovery or use any root browser.

3. Go to data/system folder.

4. If you have setup pattern lock then delete pattern.key file and if you have setup pin lock them delete pin/password.key file (Don't worry this won't harm your phone) and restart your phone.

5. Congratulations! Now you can unlock with fingerprint without any lock on your phone :)

Note: This is just a small trick and many may find this useful while many already know this. This is applicable on all android devices and mostly all versions too. Enjoy!

Thanks :)

Thanks for the nice tutorial. I was using the "Lockscreen Disabler" Xposed module for this. If you select "No lockscreen", then you can unlock with fingerprint and there is no lock. If you change your mind, just select "Deactivate this mod" and it will be stock. That's without any reboot.
[Samsung Gear S3] untyped:
Hi everyone!

I was wondering if there is an app that can be downloaded to control media/in call volume. Since I am using AirPods the only way to control those two is on the phone. It will be really awesome if just rotating the bezel on the Gear S3 controls those volumes.

Thanks!

Edit:

Actually, I just found that the music player on Gear S3 can control media volume! YES! Even when using Spotify. The app has a widget and it takes about a second and a half to control volume!

I wish I can do the same for in call volume. The music app controls only media volume no matter what you are listening now.

But nevermind if it de-duplicated... right?
[Android General] badmojr:
Hey! Glad that you're interested in this little project of mine & yes, the hosts file will be actively updated.

I've included both the lists (ABPVN & Turk-Adlist) 'cause despite their names, they contain tons of entries not specific to Turkey & Vietnam websites. If you take a closer look at those lists, i think you might notice that.

The StevenBlack list used in the hosts file is his personal ad-hoc list and not the unified hosts file.

ALSO,

The hosts file does not contain duplicates.
[Android General] xmascious:
This is interresting coz you included some "exotic" hosts files.. not included in StevenBlack's.

[Android General] badmojr:

The Airelle's hosts files were not include mainly because of size, breakage, and false positives.

Download the hosts file with the help of a download manager like IDM or ADM (Android).

You can also import it directly into uBlock Origin and AdAway.

The second method is highly recommended because the hosts file gets updated quite frequently!

[Android General] badmojr:
I don't own a Mi device.

what's your adBlock client?
[Android General] inVain_theGenuine:
I'm using AdAway with the complete version of 1hosts,

it really surprised how (nearly everything) of Mi services got blocked.

I even can't log in to my mi account on the phone :LOL

please don't get me wrong for being complaining about your hosts list is being too aggressive.

on the contrary, I really like it this way.

fyi, today xiaomi's miui is really like a hand held billboard, you'll got a full display of ads just by opening their very own native system apps :eek:

your hosts list just did the impossible!

I can just omit the mi account, or disable AdAway if I need to deal with anything related to mi.

but probably, you need to make a notice for Mi users out there regarding to this matter, especially for those who are trying to unlock their bootloader (on Mi devices, one need to bind their account and device), since they might have quite unpleasing day trying to figure out what's wrong with their mi account /device :D
[Android General] badmojr:
Unless someone with a Mi device figures out what's required for the services to work, I'm afraid there isn't much I can do.
[Android General] Zorachus:
I'm confused on what to do here.

So if I click this link in OP

Lite/mini: 1hosts.cf/mini

What do I do with this ? How do I get AdAway to incorporate these hosts?

I added the web address "https://1hosts.cf/mini/" to my AdAway hosts, refreshed it, and rebooted, and that seemed to do it.
[Android General] inVain_theGenuine:
I can understand it, no worries :)

out of curiosity, is there anything I can do to make a log of my phone connection so I can do a cross check with the list?

those are the hosts list which are being blocked by the AdAway (without the list, AdAway won't do anything on its own).

by reading through the list, we can add host(s) to the white list if you run into a similar situation as mine.

reading through the list or creating the list alone can be a real pain in the arse, though :P

but the marvel of this hosts file is, you can apply it on your PC as well.

yes, that's what I did on my side as well.
