[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] ReckerRex:
I had rooted my Moto G5 plus a couple of months back, I had to relock the bootloader and install the stock recovery and rom due to some reasons. I followed a thread on this website which had all the files and commands given to restore stock rom. Later, I decided to unlock the bootloader again. I followed the steps to unlock the bootloader but, my device isn't appearing under adb devices so, I am not able to do anything. I have installed all the moto adb drivers and checked oem unlocking and usb debugging under developer options but, my device doesn't appear under adb. :rolleyes:

I used the following thread-

[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] mrlolli:
Everything in that guide is done in fastboot, so if you're in fastboot when you're trying to find your phone, try "fastboot devices" instead of "adb devices"
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] ReckerRex:
So, how do I follow the steps on moto's website to unlock the bootloader?
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] Credrili:
For some reason,

adb devices

didn't work for me right away.

I skipped that command and just ran

fastboot oem get_unlock_data

and that worked and I was able to continue with the process. Perhaps try that and see what happens.

Drivers must be installed too. This thread helped me:

Another thing that didn't work for me:

USB Dev settings must be disabled in order to mount USB File Transfer Mode (MTP). After updating to latest version, it seems that has been fixed so I don't have to do that anymore.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lapist:
I just got old Samsung Galaxy S2 (i9100) with old Andoid 2.3.3. I plan to give it to my old father as he has quite ancient phone.

What is the most stable and smooth ROM for this phone? I suppose a lot of people ask for that :)

I need good battery life (mostly for stand-by time), stability, camera and GPS.

Is it stock Jelly Bean, or some ported Android 5, 6 or 7 (CM, LOS, RR etc.)?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abels2:
stock based roms like NeatROM,Alliance or Omega v24....
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lapist:
What about MM or Nougat ROMs (like Lineage OS), shouldn't they have imrpoved stand-by time due to new Android power-saving features? What kind of bugs are there?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rs168:
don't bother.

tried most of the ROM. stock based are still the best. and CM10 or CM11
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lapist:
I have currently LineageOS 14.1 and it seems to work relatively fine, but there is spome battery drain (about 30% per 24h when the phone is just in stand-by, unused, but connected to wifi - maybe that is normal). I have some problem in the phone that stock Android 4.x, CM 11, DU 10.6 and CM 13 (with built-in kernel) are freezing, rebooting etc, while Android 2.x and LineageOS 14.1 seem to work stable. DorimanX kernel for MM helps somehow and DU 10.6 nor CM 13 don't freeze, but it is not compatible with DU (it doesn't finish loading even after one hour) and CM 13 got into some kind of load-loop after some hours of use. I may need to research some custom kernels for stock 4.1.3 or CM11 that would work then... In addition, CM13 didn't look faster than LineageOS 14.1 (perhaps even LOS 14.1 feels a bit smother with f2fs than CM13 with ext4).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rs168:
yeah, the battery is the main problem in LineageOS, that's why I recommend going back to JellyBean or KitKat, they are still the best.

In the end, I use this old device with AOSP NeatROM's as music player, connected to speaker lol

You can install xposed installer then use Lock Screen clock mods [L_M] module, it works on nougat too,but the style of clocks are limited,here is my screenshot with this module.

Another way is with substratum and this theme, but you have to buy it

Also yesterday I tried Lock Screen clock mods [L_M]. But Clock doesn't change. I there anything i can do to make it work?
[Xperia Z5 Premium Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mhyr:
Yea substratum works fine itself but every theme you want to install first you should check if the theme works fine with aosp or Sony roms, some themes are just for Samsung roms for instance.

About the module, you have to install xposed installer and xposed framework through recovery, then the module will work fine. There are guides in this forum and others to how to install xposed, search a little bit :)
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adita:
Hi,

As much as I tried to look for this information, I didn't find a clear answer.

I have an M9 running 1.32.401.17 (stock recovery, from an old RUU), which is S-Off with unlocked bootloader. I was really expecting to get all the OTAs, so you can imagine my surprise when I didn't get any.

I then thought that I need to relock the bootloader, and then I will receive the OTAs. I relocked the bootloader, and again - no OTAs.

1. For an S-Off phone, should one receive OTAs with unlocked bootloader, or does one have to relock the bootloader (if so, to "locked" or to "relocked") to get OTAs?

2. Is the OS version on my phone so old that OTAs are not provided anymore?

3. Does it mean that if I manage to get a more "contemporary" OS version on my phone I'll get the OTAs?

4. If none of the above are correct, what do I need to do to get OTAs on my S-Off M9?

Thank you very much.

Adrian
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adita:
Thanks to the fantastic post from Nikolay82 "HTC One M9 - 3.35.401.12 RUU installer how to guide!"

https://xdaforums.com/one-m9/help/htc-one-m9-3-35-401-12-ruu-installer-t3318517

I managed to upgrade to 1.40.401.8.

After that I started to get OTAs (I'm now at 3.35.401.12) :). So I can confirm that one doesn't need to relock the bootloader for an S-Off phone in order to receive OTAs (S-Off and UNLOCKED is fine).

I still don't know why I didn't get any OTA update for 1.32.401.17, but I'm happy that it worked from 1.40.410.8.

Cheers
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivadow:
Correct bootloader unlocked makes no difference. S-off makes no difference.

There is a possibility that htc have stopped the release of the earliest firmware. There is also a possibility that there was a problem but it would be solved by the update you did.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flippy498:
Even with S-ON you can receive updates with an unlocked bootloader.

The reason for your issue was the firmware you were using. 1.32.401.17 only got distributed in one single country. Therefore, only one specific CID of the handful of CIDs that belong to SKU 401 supports this "special" firmware version. In other words, you can't update a M9 and are stuck with that firmware if you aren't using the supported CID. The only solution is flashing a RUU with a different firmware version. That's why the RUU for 1.32.401.17 isn't linked in the ReadMe thread.

Edit: I can't tell you which CID actually corresponds to that "special" version since I forgot which one it was.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Guides, News, & Discussion] csrow:
This is really a note to myself as a guide to convert out of box x727 to Linerage OS 14. I have converted 4 phones so far and I just wanted to leave a note for the next time. I have used the below method for going from 18s, 19s, and 21s. (I believe it also works for 23s. I think I have done it before.)

Steps below are for experts only with the usual warnings about bricking and warranty. (Always check for connection with devices command in both adb and fastboot - if you find adb working but not fastboot, change out the USB driver on you computer)

I wrote the steps down from my memory so let me know if you find something missing.

Files you need to hunt down :

emmc image

twrp image

los14 zip

ogapp zip

supersu zip

1) Boot up a new phone with no account and no wifi.

2) Set developer mode and enable USB debugging.

3) Connet USB and give permission on the phone.

4) adb reboot bootloader

5) fastboot flash aboot emm..xxx

5a)*reboot into fastboot by holding down power and vol- buttons.

6) fastboot oem unlock-go

7) fastboot flash recovery twrp..xxx

8) jump to recovery by pressing power and vol+

from twrp (if asked for password, just ignore)

9)make a back up if you would like to go back

10) mount system

11) format data (in the wipe section) and wipe cache and system

from adb

12) adb push los.zip, ogapp.zip, and supersu.zip to /sdcard/

from twrp

13) install los, ogapp, and supersu

14) boot system with no twrp install

Done. Phone should boot twice and will take some time to come up first time.

Hey! hi.

Could you do a Step-by-Step Tutorial, with File etc. if its a Video tutorial, better! I have the X727 US with 19s Official Rom and I want Root/TWRP but any tutorial that I saw are weird.... I have fear to break my phone. Thanks!
[LeEco Le Pro3 Guides, News, & Discussion] csrow:
If you have a specific question about a certain step or files, I can answer them for you but the guide is about as detailed as I want to make.

If you are comfortable with ADB, Fastboot, and TWRP, then the above guide should be detailed enough to get the job done.

If you are not, then I would advise not attempting the conversion since there is a good chance of bricking the phone.

And by the way, unlocking the bootloader will erase all the user data on the phone.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Guides, News, & Discussion] kukuteku:
Well, I Already did it!

Now I have Root / UBL/ TWRP.... Thank! :good:
[LeEco Le Pro3 Guides, News, & Discussion] csrow:
Good for you. Enjoy.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Joms_US:
This step is a little misleading

12) format data (in the wipe section) and wipe cache and system

You don't want to click the Format Data as it will erase the previously copied zip files (well you can copy them again). You should only do Advanced Wipe (System and Cache)
[LeEco Le Pro3 Guides, News, & Discussion] csrow:
Ah good point. Thanks.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Guides, News, & Discussion] YouKittenMe:
Why the emmc image? Is it just for permanently unlocked bootloader? And if yes then is there a reason I would need unlocked bootloader after I flash recovery?
[LeEco Le Pro3 Guides, News, & Discussion] csrow:
Of 6 or 7 times I have tried oem unlock-go, only once did it work. Other times, I had to flash emmc first in order to unlock. You can try oem unlock-go first and see if it works for you.

The other thing to consider is if the flashed recovery will remain when you reboot without having flashing emmc first.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Redhawk2000:
Good summary of steps. I found it was necessary to reboot the bootloader after flashing emmc_appsboot.mbn, though (as per this post: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=71566961&postcount=203). Just did it on a new phone last night.

Glad it work out for you.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Guides, News, & Discussion] kukuteku:
You can Use OTG. I could not get a OTG, so I did flash Recovery 3.0.3 v6 because the 3.0.2 does not have support for Adb or MTP via Recovery. Once being on recovery your connect your movil to the PC and it appear like Drive, then you copy Your Rom, SU or anything else.

Hi all. Love the 10 Pro!!!

Not so good is that I can't remove or disable the stock music player (music).

I use Pulsar but when I connect my Sony wh-1000xm2 through BT it automatically launches the horrible huawei music app and starts playing.

Any ideas how to get around that?

Try this, it helped out in my case.

Unfortunately, even though storage permission is OFF, the app still launches and plays when the phone connects to BT in the car.

Try this one...

In settings, go to battery, tap on Launch, scroll down to Music and disable , you'll get a popup with three options, disable all three.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] fishyfishx:
I know it's not really resolution, but try changing default app for Music. Just search "Default app settings" in settings.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] blackspp:
OP here.

I may have solved this.

In settings-apps I disabled all music permissions and then deleted cache and all data. Then I set Pulsar to my default music app.

Now Music no longer shows in battery-launch anymore so I guess it is effectively disabled.

Fot me this is OK now.

UPDATE - issue is resolved. Thanks!

Hi all,

I got the notification to update this morning. Now, on the latest G955USQU2BQK5. Previously everything worked flawlessly. Now after the upate, I no longer have wi-fi calling. It's just completely disappeared as a setting/option.

background - bought this as an unlocked S8+ Verizon version from Swappa. I'm on metropcs so I flashed the Tmobile stock firmware and carrier switched about 3 weeks ago when I got the device. Like I said, everything has been working flawlessly until the update this morning.

Any helps or suggestions? What do I do - I work in a place where I get no data/texts/calls so wi-fi calling makes my device work/function.

Thanks for any guidance friends!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] DCCCCDJK:
I have the exact same issue. Samsung s8+ unlocked Verizon version, I flashed T-mobile and it had been working flawlessly on T-Mobile and more recently on Mint Sim.

T-Mobile pushed out an update Monday night that makes the wi-fi calling disappear when you do not have a T-Mobile SIM card in the phone. As soon as I put my old t-mobile sim card back in and re-booted, the wi-fi calling icon and settings came back. Unfortunately as soon as I put the Mint sim back in, the phone makes you restart and the all the Wi-Fi calling features are gone again.

I hope someone has a fix soon, otherwise I'm gonna have to get rid of Mint sim.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] jt1998:
This completely blows. Someone in another thread suggesting redoing the carrier flashing and see if that helps. I'm gonna try tonight after work and I'll post my results here. If you come up with anything, will you please update as well? Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] DCCCCDJK:
Yea. I've been looking all over the web to see what I could do with no luck. Looks like T-Mobile disabled it for other SIM cards. MY only silver lining is my Mint account ends Dec 24, so I could go back to T-Mobile. I'd rather not pay another $200/ yr just for wifi calling though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] jt1998:
holy crap. I had no idea Tmobile disabled this purposely. UGH. this is ridiculous...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] jt1998:
Nope. Odin fails this time when I try to do the carrier switching steps. This completely blows.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] jt1998:
Just FYI - after getting help from people way more knowledgeable than me, I finally got it resolved. So long story short, you have to carrier switch again and factory reset your device back to, in our case, tmobile stock software. Its available here on XDA for download. I'll link you to the thread where I got help. You'll need the updated files for the carrier switch 1st, then the updated firmware for tmobile stock. The secret when doing all this is to take out the SIM 1st!! do the carrier switch and factory reset, all while SIM is out. install the phone, setup via google etc. Don't put your sim back in until you can see wifi calling is available in settings, etc. Then I dropped the SIM in and everything worked. Good luck bro. Here's the link to the thread i was talking about LINK starting with post 406

I didnt know/realize that the VZW version is sim unlocked and could be used anywhere. I bought an unlocked version from Googles store before i found out so now I'm trying to decide if its worth keeping and selling my VZW version or if I should just return it. The only differences between the unlocked google store version and the VZW version appears to be no esim/manager and bootloader is locked. Both items I dont really care about. I have the black (VZW) but I ordered the white (Google Store). It appears I can sell my phone for about 800-850 on Swappa so the question is this:

As the topic states, has anyone found a metal plate brand that has an adhesive that will actually stick to the rear of the 5T? I've tried a number of them, and they all pop right off when I go to pull the phone off the dash, leaving the plate attached to the magnets.

Specifically, I've tried the plate that came with:
