[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AgentGeofire:
I have been attempting to get Mobile Upgrade Q working all day and have had no success because of one stupid little error message...

There is no greater software version available to upgrade your phone, actual version of your phone is the latest.

I can already tell you this isn't true.

To make a long story short, I was aiming to unlock the bootloader on my Idol 3, downgraded to Lollipop via Eluga Switch restore software, installed TWRP, rooted, then attempted to flash Lineage OS 14.1 to the device. It refused to boot, no matter what I did...

Deciding that I wanted to go back to stock firmware, I installed Mobile Upgrade Q 5.1.8, opened the program, and tried to start the upgrade process. However, I was instead greeted with the error I mentioned above, how my device was allegedly already on latest software.

- I've tried using other versions of Mobile Upgrade Q with no success.

- I've tried reinstalling the Alcatel drivers via. the one I copied from my phone to the computer, same result.

- I've tried loading it from the bootloader, and with the device powered off and charging, both of which failed.

- Yes, I've tried wiping data/cache, and even system. I also tried Panasonic Eluga Switch again, which succeeded, but again, I don't want my phone to be branded under Panasonic, and I do want the Marshmallow software...

- I've tried restarts, multiple different drivers, and even relocking the bootloader, all of which failed...

Does anyone know how I can get the Upgrade software to work? I've tried everything I could on my side, and nothing seems to succeed...

Thanks in advance...

Your only chance is to use QFIL and flash stock ROM. You need to google and try to find a suitable ROM. May i suggest 4pda.ru website. It's russian but google translate does well enough. It has a lot of useful information for both variants, 4.7 or 5.5 version . Idol 3 is the worse when it comes to rooting, flashing etc. Don't mess with it. You can easily ruin it for good.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AgentGeofire:
Thank you for the response... :)

Do you know where I can find the stock firmware file? I couldn't navigate through 4PDA that well due to the Russian interface, and Google Translate did little to no help.

Thanks

Here you go. Use google translate for more details.

If your model is 5.5 you can find it in this forum.

That's all i can do for you. I know it's not much. Sorry about that.

Hello [MENTION=5793928]chewyboy0[/MENTION], you mean flashing latest stock ROM or just wipe partitions?
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chewyboy0:
Hi, the software does wipe and then it flashes the latest stock rom, I do not have the phone currently but I can update on the procedure once I get the device since I have upgraded to a Samsung galaxy note 5 and I gave the old idol 3 to a friend
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ciclolars:
It would be nice, I'm sure many people will use it.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chewyboy0:
Hi all! Sorry for the late delay but I have not had the idol and still do not have it unfortunately. I will upload the software to google drive but be mindful that it does require a password to actually get into the program as I assume that it is used in Alcatel's factory to install the software update to the device.

[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chewyboy0:
Hiya! I have a guide here: https://xdaforums.com/idol-3/general/guide-restore-idol-3-to-factory-rom-t3769739

I'm not sure if it will work with the Idol 4 but if it does not have the model number listed in the program you might want to try updating it using the dialog box that pops up at startup. Before updating the program, try seeing if it has your idol 4's model number listed and then if it doesn't close out of the program, reopen it, then update it.

Hope all goes well,

Hello everyone,

Here is something weird to me. Got this ZTE Axon 7 mini just the other day. It was running Android 6, so I tried to sync all my 360 google contacts, and each time it only syncs up to 250 contacts. I removed the google account, tried again a few times but still the same issue. I have tried a different contacts application, bu it didn't help.

So I did the update to Android 7, and same issue, it would only sync up to 250 contacts. Please help.

Forgot to mention, the contacts are clearly labeled as belonging to that gmail address. Also, inside the phone I can create more contacts that would belong to the google account. Seems to be a sync issue. I also tried turning sync off and on a few times and there is no error showing for the contacts sync option.

Other things I tried: disabled the contacts stock application and used a different one, erased cache, used a contacts sync fix application, nothing helped so far.

This one blew my mind: Exported all my contacts to vfc, they got imported to my google email on my phone, the phone ended up deleting some of my 360 contacts until I was down to 277. There are no contacts saved to the phone memory or sim card.

The other thing I am considering to try is to use a hammer...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] umph1348:
As stated above, I just purchased a refurbished Samsung Galaxy S6 off Woot.com last week. It was advertised as Verizon/GSM Unlocked. As I have found out, EVERY SINGLE Verizon Samsung S6 is always unlocked from the factory.. except mine.

I use Ting Wireless running a T-Mobile style SIM, coming from a Blue R1 HD. I confirmed the IEMI with my ting rep, they confirmed the compatibility of my current SIM, but because somehow this phone is locked, I am SOL at the moment.

My theory lies in the fact that maybe the phone was refurbished overseas, and was then set to different band settings and is not quite factory default.

Any information is welcome. My next plan was reflashing the firmware to the oldest setting, trying the card then, then updating if successful. Thank you in advance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] barkerb23:
Have you done a factory reset through the bootloader?

If your device is frp / samsung or google locked then read below.

I had just spent the last 2 days trying to figure out what the hell I could do to remove the frp lock on my device. After alot of XDA and Youtube browsing I have found a solution, and I guarantee it will work for you! First off, the Google Account FRP lock is different than the Samsung Account Reactivation Lock (Samsung FRP) So if it is asking you to sign into google account, then theres a much easier way around it.

What you need is Z3x Box, You can get the program via PM'ing me, the program does not require you to have a box with it.

You want to then put your phone into download mode (Home key, volume down, and power) While phone is off. Press Vol Up to continue.

Back to Z3x, once you start the program, connect your device

Now once it successfully connects and you choose your phone model (Make sure its the correct one) go to the UNLOCK tab, and select Reset/Frp/React/EE

if successful you will see what is shown in the image link below.

If not, Factory reset / Wipe with the bootloader and go back into download mode.

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] djsubterrain:
The OnePlus 5 isn't discontinued, it's been superceded by the 5T, that doesn't mean OnePlus or custom developers will ignore it or refuse to support it.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] jhs39:
You can use whatever word you want that makes you feel better about owning a device that was only manufactured for 4 months. If devs can't make ROMs that can be used in both the 5 & the 5T there will be no long term independent development for either model. Developers will also think twice about supporting future OnePlus devices if that turns out to be the case because it's a waste of time, money and programming resources to support a company with that type of corporate strategy. If you know of a precedent of any phone that was made for less than half a year but received long term independent development anyway I would like to know what it is.

---------- Post added at 04:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:43 PM ----------

And were sales of those models completely discontinued after 4 months as well?
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] TheDantee:
With the Oneplus X came after the 2 as a budget option pretty sure.... And the 3T did take over the 3 a couple months later... They are the same phones really 5 and 5T minor changes.... Like an iPhone 6 and 6s...
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] jhs39:
Google continued to sell every Nexus device for a minimum of a full year. When they started Project Fi the devices were sold for much longer. As of March 2017 Google was still selling brand new Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P phones in the Project Fi Store. The OnePlus store completely stopped selling the OP5 4 months after it was released. I don't what I'm saying is too complicated to understand.

---------- Post added at 04:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:51 PM ----------

The 3 & the 3T have unified ROM development. If ROMs for one model weren't compatible with the other then that would be an entirely different situation. If you expect development for this phone then you should hope the same is true of 5 and 5T ROMs.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] dlads:
By Oneplus? About 2 years, by the community? It depends, the Oneplus had a buggy birth and from all the hype what with the camera meant to be earth shattering the outcome was a little underwhelming to say the least, so in hindsight i'd say development community? Not great.

However it is a niche device now, with only 5 months of sales to it's name you'll be hard pushed to get a brand new one in the coming months and with it using the latest and greatest processor at the moment, not to mention a lot of RAM, personally i'd say the community has a lot of life left in it, at least for the next two years, sure it'll slow down but it'll still have people who are waiting for the right time to upgrade.

There's life in the old dog yet ;)

PS: Saying that, do you really keep a device for more than two years anyway? The battery by that time is a bit shot..... probably best to upgrade at that point, my next will be HTC so long as they don't **** it all up again :confused:

i'm using this super popular super ROM https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4/i9500-orig-develop/rom-lineageos-14-1-samsung-galaxy-s4-t3586561

I just downloaded 2nd of this December's build and installed it with latest TWRP for ja3gxx.

Didn't install gApps, I though it be better to do after.

i'm trying to expanding internal storage with a 16GB class 10 sd card.

in settings app after formatting successfully, it fails (settings apps hangs/ "stopped working") when you press the button on the next dialog/page to start moving data to the sd card.

if you skip moving the data, by selecting "later" and continuing, the sd card shows as corrupt.

i'm 100% sure the sd card is not corrupt and is genuine, I formatted it multiple times,

in TWRP, wiped it and changed file system to F2FS, and It formats and works as a portable storage, it shows a 16GB portable storage space.

I have tried most likely identical (just defferent colors gray+red and white+red) Sandisk class 10, 16GB sd cards.

so the issue is not the sd card.

[Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers] jlguillot:
Hi, I have screwed my phone, and I need some help. It had been a long time since I did this sort of thing and didn't go well.

I dowloaded and flashed TWRP without a problem. Then I tried to root via supersu, as I thought everything would be ok, didn't worry about backup, I know, I shouldn't hav, my bad. But now it is too late. After installing supersu with TWRP the phone wouln´t start.

Trying to do a factory reset with TWRP I messed up and deleted everything on the phone. So now I only have TWRP and nothing else.

I am trying to flash a ROM from sammobile with Odin, but it fails at the very beginning and I don´t know what else to do.

- Could I copy a backup from other phone? will that work? I have another identical phone and I could do that, I guess, and restore with TWRP.

- Or maybe flash another ROM, maybe a custom one?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Jose
[Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers] jlguillot:
Hi all again,

I have solved my problem and now my phone is working fine. I will try rooting it later and installing the extended memory fix to be able to use the sd card as internal memory. This is what I did.

I copied the TWRP back up from my second phone into my "not working" phone, I followed some tips that I found elsewhere in XDA for assuring that the serial number was correct.

This did not fix the phone, it still wouldn't start. It would go into a loop and the start screen, but allowed me to flash a new ROM.

At first it seemed to work, but wouldn't start. It moved pass the start screen but got stuck on the Samsung logo. I turned it off by removing the battery and eventually it has started OK and seems to be working fine. Now it is downloading some updates.

Just as it may help someone along the line.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Erario:
I've been trying for a long time to activate call recording in mine "S4 i9505 jfltexx" where I installed "LineageOS official V14.1".

With all the software with which I tried recording it only works from the microphone, the interlocutor is never recorded.

The strange thing is that with an old S3 and the same version of LineageOS, configured in exactly the same way, call recording work fine without issue.

I've documented and many assert that it is a problem of LineageOS, but I believe that the problem lies in the support code inserted for this particular S4, because with other smartphone work as expected.

[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bearacuda:
UPDATE

I reached out to the LineageOS community on Reddit. AndyCGYan replied and told me he had compiled 1.4.2 windows versions of heimdall.exe and heimdall-frontend.exe. I asked him to share them with me. He did. In a command prompt I typed: "heimdall142 print-pit --verbose". The command prompt scrolled with a flurry of text and my SM-P900 rebooted from 'Download Mode'. It worked!

I'd feel better if the Glassechidna guy would compile his own software into a 1.4.2 windows product, but I'm grateful this guy responded.

Thanks AndyCGYan
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bearacuda:
UPDATE 2: SM-P900 flashed with TRWP and Lineage OS 14.1

I finished the process of flashing my SM-P900 to the Lineage OS v14.1 (20171125). Lineage OS v14.1 (20171202) gave the following error:

"adb: error: failed to get feature set: no device/emulators found"

But when I flashed the 20171125 version it worked. So I'm guessing there is a problem with the 1202 nightly.

The Windows compiled v1.4.2 version of Heimdall I received got me past the 1.4.0 print-pit problem. I don't have 10 messages posted here yet so I can't post the link to the files. But if you go to my post on Reddit in the Lineage OS forum you'll see the link. The person who made the files available to me said he'd keep the files there for others to download. Unless you compile them yourself, I don't know of anywhere else these can be obtained.

To clarify, here is the information regarding my SM-P900

Stock Android v5.0.2

Country: Cellular South (XAR)

PDA: P900UES1CPL1

CSC: P900XAR1CPL1

Kies 3.0 (to obtain most recent Windows Samsung device drivers)

ADB v1.0.39

Heimdall Suite (v1.4.0 with heimdall.exe (v1.4.2) and heimdall-frontend.exe (v1.4.2) replacing 1.4.0 versions)

TWRP v3.1.1-0-v1awifi

Lineage OS 14.1 - Android v7.1.2 - nightly version 20171125 (20171202 gave an error)

Open GApps - arm - v7.1 nano

addonsu - arm - v14.1

NOTE: Even though ADB was successfully setup, I was not successful pushing any files (TWRP, LineageOS, etc.) onto "/sdcard/". Trying so caused an error. I was able to:

( 1 ) remove my extSDCard (64gb Samsung) from the SM-P900,

( 2 ) plug it into my computer and copy over the TWRP, LineageOS, Open Gapps, and addonsu zip files to extSDCard

( 3 ) re-insert my extSDCard back into SM-P900

( 4 ) In TWRP recovery mode, there is an 'INSTALL' button that lets you select multiple zips from either internal or external SD storage. After selecting the zips on the extSDCard all of the files flashed over just fine.

NOTE: When the LineageOS instructions tell you to reboot into recovery mode just after flashing TWRP, what they mean is to press the "REBOOT" button which then leads to a submenu with a "RECOVERY" button. I initially thought the "REBOOT" button meant restarting the system so I didn't push it. Instead I tried pressing the Home + Vol. UP + Power button combination. But all that did was restart the SM-P900 into the stock v5.0.2. Which according the LineageOS instructions destroys the TWRP custom recovery. After repeating this step several times while trying variations of button pressing I finally hit the "Reboot" button and found the submenu of additional options: "System", "Recovery", "Download", etc...

Good Luck
