[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] adriel161:
So it pops up randomly not just using chrome. A few minutes ago I was in the middle of a Clash Royale Game and an add popped up. I recently downloaded a QR reader from the play store and I think that's when it started again.

I deleted the app, but it's been still going on. That's why I went to use the anti virus/malware apps, but they found nothing.

Is there anyway to fix or find what is doing it without factory resetting?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] adriel161:
No, nothing shows up on my battery setting.

check the root directory for any strange folders that should not belong there and delete those. I had some that were like 5489399fgjjll and crap. Those are a sure sign there is malware on your phone :(
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] adriel161:
Aww dang, alright. Thanks.

Is the root directory the android->data folder?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] gjkrisa:
No it would be back one more step but I would look there also

But you are going to need root to view that part

I just had the same problem and it seemed to be caused by the app store. So I read all your efforts and then took a look in my settings and here's what I did that resolved the issues: settings < apps & notifications < advanced < Special app access < display over other apps < google play services < switch to "not allowed"

I fixed a similar issue on a friends phone. When Ad appears, swipe up (assuming pill gesture on Android 9) and you get the recents screens. The current app (app showing ad) icon will be at top of the screen preview. Press and hold on the icon until a context menu appears and select App Info. Now you know which app is popping ads up.

Google Account Ad Personalization (Ad Settings)

The Patriot Act started all this bull****. No Privacy

It's that ****ing google ads that you can opt out of, but they force the others ads on you.

This is an invasion of privacy you pay all this money for your personal phone and they force content on you whether you like it or not.

I'm thinking about downgrading my phone and operating systems?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Trying to get past the 10 post filter aye? That's what it looks like based upon the fact you replied to a post that's been dead for six months plus.

Now I won't engage with your political rant because this isn't political. You own the hardware, but Google owns the software, especially the Google apps. The ads are Google's means of recouping development costs of Android.

Now, if you don't want ads but want to use Google apps, you install and run Blokada. It works on virtually everything, except YouTube. Or you use a version of Android that doesn't include Google apps.

If neither option appeals to you, try and find a dumbphone, because Apple is worse.

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] lokoxlrock:
Hey

I've sideloaded the Fastboot ROM of 8.1.10 Oreo from Xiaomi and because of choosing the wrong script (flash_factory.bat) without reading instructions, i lost the IMEI of my phone. I've recovered the /persist partition, so there's no problem with the WiFi or the BT connectivity. But i tried a lot of times to recover the IMEI from the phone with QPST and there's no ressult.

So i was wondering if someone can help me with an EFS backup, to try to recover with this the IMEI of my Phone.

The instructions detailled in the other threads about "lost imei" worked, but only with the persist partition, but still no work for the IMEI and baseband.

Please help :(

I've been a Sense user for an age but fancied something very different and the MIUI and also the FlymeOS roms are quite different and pleasing to look at.

Do these roms come with a lot of Chinese bloat?

Hello, this is somewhat of a noob question, I just bought a j7 prime g610m on ebay, which is supposed to be dual SIM, I just received the phone and the Sim tray with the second space for a Sim (the one with the sdcard) is blocked , the phone indeed shows 2 imeis when I put *#06* on the dialer , I can also somewhat see the contacts inside the phone, but, I saw that it doesn't says duos on the back, so I'm baffled to what could it be, did I got a single Sim phone with a dual SIM rom or did I got a dual SIM phone with the wrong Sim tray?

Thanks in advance! :good:

I know that Essential dropped an update that made it possible to shoot video with the monochrome sensor but I would be more interested in getting RAW files from the sensor. I have searched the internet and XDA as well and I haven't found anything on the topic. Huawei has had this sensor for awhile now and I know there is an active community here. So, has there been any mod/app made that would give me this?

If not I could settle for video if somebody has toyed around with that [emoji1] Thanks in advance [emoji106]

Hi all,

I was wondering, once I have custom firmware and recovery on my lg g4, will I be able to reinstall the software from LG Bridge. I understand that I could use the kdz downloaded by it in LG UP, but I was wondering, if I put my phone in download mode, could the update error recovery utility in LG Bridge also reinstall it?

Thanks in advance for your help
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuperBommel:
I tried this recently just to see what it does, but it even didn't recognize the phone. So you probably need to use LGUP (which I used to go back to stock on my G4) or TWRP to flash something else.

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] giorgoxxi:
Hi,

I was having an issue with my phone that many are experiencing, where once under 40%, the phone would randomly shutdown and would not boot until a charger is plugged in.

I've upgraded my WWE phone to Oreo, but the issue still occurred.

However,

after upgrading

, I performed the battery reset trick and since then the phone shuts down gracefully at 1% as expected. I had done the trick with Nougat previously a few times but it didn't make a difference.

The trick is:

1) Shutdown the phone

2) Plug the charger in

3) Hold the VOLUME UP, VOLUME DOWN and POWER buttons simultaneously for at least 2 mins

It might be a temporary fix, so I'll keep monitoring and update but so far so good.

Battery life is still bad though (max 3hr SOT), but that's down to battery wear I believe.

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] TheMadKing:
Well, I've pretty much managed to screw up my HTC 10. I'm on the latest 3.16.401.2 WWE, S-ON, with the bootloader relocked and stock recovery. I can access the download mode, the bootloader and the stock recovery, but I can't unlock the bootloader since I can't active the OEM unlock option. The phone doesn't boot, it's stuck in a bootloop at the white HTC logo.

Using the OTA available for WWE gives me the Status 7 fail error. Is there anything else I can do, besides from waiting for the Oreo WWE RUU?

Thanks in advance.

But yes you could S-off or wait for an RUU to magically appear.

HTC 10 boot loop

Hello guys,

my wife yesterday tried to update OTA (our htc 10 are completely stock) to OREO from Nougat 2.41.401.41. Something went wrong and it's stuck in a boot loop. I can get in bootloader and tried to install the ota, which I downloaded, manually from SD card, but after verifying it says "error: partition has unexpected content". Is there a way to get the phone back working even with data loss? Thanks really for the help, the phone has never been modified, I am getting crazy reading the forums but I am a total noob ?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] marcoymarc:

I have the same issue, HTC 10 in a boot loop after applying the OTA Oreo update. I'm able to get into bootloaders and such, but i need the data thats on the phone... Allready tried taking out the SIM and SD-card. Does anyone know if this can be fixed?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Vinzii:
Same problem here!

After Reading what the rest of you lot mentioned here, i have the exact same problems! Installed the update from Nougat to Oreo, and the phone went into bootloader! I was stupid enough to delete most of it through TWRP, and even dumber to RELOCK it so that TWRP is out of the Picture. Download mode appears, but the recovery just brings me back to bootloader. Oh yes, and the OS is missing.

and fastboot / adb wont recognize the HTC Connected to the PC anymore.. Guess this is a total Brick? should i send it back since i have a warranty? Will they be able to fix this?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] varg300:
I too was stupid and relocked it while reverting to stock. At this point I had also flashed the stock recovery and recovered to what turned out to be a non-functional backup. (Stuck in boot-loop)

Thankfully Fastboot did however still work while in download mode, and I was able to unlock it again by flashing the same unlock_token.bin that I have kept since I unlocked it the first time, slapped in twrp again and I was good for another go.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] marcoymarc:
M8 can you help out linking some procedure for a noob like me? Should I use a ruu? I am completely stock
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] varg300:
I'm no expert in this my self just FYI, but installing a RUU is usually a straight forward process.

You need to download a ruu for your particular CID (Depens on where the phone was sold and what -if any- carrier the phone is locked to.)

I have an european unlocked one so the RUU I used was this: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634797504

You can find more in this thread: https://xdaforums.com/htc-10/how-to/stock-stock-collection-recovery-ruu-ota-t3359297

Download the ruu (just short of 2GB in size) , rename it to 2PS6IMG.zip and put it in the root of an SD-card and insert it into the phone.

Reboot it into download mode by holding power+volume down until the grey HTC logo appears.

It should now detect the zip file in the sd-card and ask you to install it. Press volume up to confirm.

This will re-install everything (System image, recovery, firmware etc) all existing data gets destroyed.

Worked like a charm for me, and was able to do a Oreo OTA right away after the first boot.

I have an Indian HTC 10 (SD 820) full stock, no modifications. One day the phone froze and i restarted it and from that day it hasn't booted up. The htc logo shows up while it vibrates, then again the same screen. Stuck in a bootloop. When i get to bootloader and boot to recovery, the grey htc logo comes for 1 second and then it goes back to the original boot animation and it loops again until the phone dies.

Hold the power button and the volume down button to reboot to download mode. From there you can flash an RUU.zip to fix it.

What is needed to direct you to the proper RUU.zip to download and flash is for you to boot to download mode and post here what it says next to "OS"

Not much you can do with that, let it run out of battery and see if it charges without booting up. Reboot it couple of times with the power and volume buttons, try it many times....nothing to lose anyway.

Hi, I have a problem with my device I have the proboem since 5 months getting more worse every day. It started with the capacitive button's, they stopped responding to touching in February sometimes. After 3 months they stopped working entirely but no problem I used on screen nav bar. Then the complete touchscreen sometimes stopped responding after pressing the power button to unlock, I had to turn off and on the screen while in lockscreen several times until the touchscreen started responding again. Then two weeks ago the touchscreen stop's completely working after you lock the screen, it only works totally fine after the fresh boot but when you press the power button and the screen turns off and on no responding anymore. I changed the screen but no change. Then I thought it must be software so I went from s-on to s-off and flashed original ruu marshmallow, but nothing changed, I then updated every updates from htc until 3.16 Oreo and nothing changed no matter which update. Then I tried lineage OS 15.1, which worked for 1 hour but when I woke up after a whole night flashing it showed the same behavior as before. Please help me, I love my HTC 10 and I don't want another one..
