So..R U Chinese?

Your English is bad..

According to your question, your Mi 5X cannot update to the latest MIUI version..And cannot unlock bootloader.

And there is another way to update MIUI, you can first download the latest MIUI full-size zip which fits your phone on miui.com (DO NIT EXTRACT),and launch 'System Update' app, press the three points at the edge, then choose 'choose zip from SD card

' and then choose the downloaded MIUI full-size zip ,then you can update offline.

After a hard reset my Tab S2 won't recognize my wifi's 5GHZ yet my other devices will! I spent 2hrs last night resetting my modem, changing channels, passwords, frequencies and absolutely could not make my tablet recognize 5G. Every device I have recognizes and connects to it but not my Tab S2. What did the factory reset do to make this happen?? Should I reset it again? Is this a problem for Samsung. Do I need to contact them? I just don't get it! Is this inherent to the Tab S2? Was reading a post on and it seems like this has happened quite a few times but I can't find a solution. And there's nothing in the Tab S2 wifi settings that allows you to set the frequency preference to automatic. Could the Android Nougat update have anything to do with it? I even tried to manually update the firmware with the aid of Odin and it downloaded and started to install but got to 34% and then erased it. It did this 3 times. So I can't even manually update my OS. Could the last security update in August have something to do with this problem? SOMEONE please help me!!!!!:crying::crying::crying:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] goddi2010:
I hate to sound so new build asking this question but with all the variants and threads kind of combining I'm a little confused. I'm not new to xda or rooting or installing ROMs to Samsung devices and have searched but am not getting quite the confirmation I'm looking for.

I see that anyone with the g950u can get root now and that's awesome but are ROMs device specific between all the different variants? I see there is atleast one room that's says g950u in the title of the thread can anyone clear this up for me please?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] rhricik447:
The U.S. devices (g950u) still have a locked bootloader - the first piece of software executed when you power on. Being locked means that it (the CPU) is looking for a specific key (the public signature) embedded in that code before it continues loading the code _ one that only Samsung/Verizon has authorized. To change that public signature yourself, you need the other half of the key (the private key) and that is akin to asking Samsung for all its source code to every device it makes -- never going to happen!

It will only continue the boot process if the signatures match for the next part (basically the ROM) of the code. A custom ROM won't match that signature, so the bootloader won't execute the ROM code. Having 'root' means you have control over everything software related in the ROM *after* it is booted into the ROM - meaning you're already past the whole signature part.

Unless someone finds a backdoor or security flaw that can be exploited on the bootloader (unlikely), or Samsung (or more likely Verizon) gives us a program to unlock the bootloader (even less of a chance), we won't be seeing any ROMs for the g950u. So, do like I did and shut off all the Samsung gunk (I use all of Google's apps because they behave the same way on every device I own - I can't stand Samsung apps or TouchWiz!) that you can, load Nova and set it up to behave the way YOU want it to work. Then just enjoy what you have!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] charter3554:
Great post rhricik! Best explanation I've heard in a while.

From what rhricik posted, it sounds like one can't root because the bootloader is locked in the Verizon version?

Are the bootloaders locked on the AT&T and T-Mobile versions?

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mauvaiscell:
Hi everyone, I'm a newbie who don't know a lot about root and upgrade.

I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 SN-N900A (AT&T unlocked) and my battery is draining way to much energy.

I looked over the internet and I think it might help if I change my plateform.

So I'd like to root the cellphone but I cannot figure out step by step how to do it.

After rooting, I wonder if it would help to upgrade to marshmallow or nougat without all the draining useless apps from AT&T.

I saw some post about it but I don't know how to use Odin, how to downgrade to android 4 to root or anything else for that matter.

I'm kind of desperate.

Thank you !

The bootloader on this phone is locked and cannot run a custom ROM unless the custom ROM is based on a stock Samsung ROM.

How old is the battery? When did this start happening?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zancro:
You're not going to like this, but....

mauvaiscell,

You are on a obsolete, dying platform. Your best solution is acquire a new device, if not new at least recent enough to run contemporary software. The latest stock ROM for the Note 3 is several generations behind, and will not be updated. Since many of the later apps no long run on that ROM, or at least not to their full capability, the best answer is get a replacement.

But don't discard your Note 3. Within limitations it is still a beast. Use it to learn about ROMs, apps, etc. You are obviously a smart guy because you know where to look for answers. All you need do is look a bit deeper. All the answers you need are on this forum. Start by reading about SafeStrap, rooting exploits, and custom ROMs. READ, READ, then READ some more. Once you're confident, and have all the tools at your disposal, then start experimenting with your Note 3.

Best of luck.

[General Questions and Answers] anon1135:
the meizu m6 note is very interesting to me for the specs and price. I might've gotten it over rn4 if I knew about it sooner. there's a lot of sd 625 phones out there and this is the only one I heard about having really good battery life and camera at the same time for under 200. probably beats some 300-400 phones too in terms of battery and camera balance. a few problems atm could be the lte bands and no custom roms but still seems great for those who like to stay on stock. camera is already good from what I read so might not need the google one that badly yet and there's also root option in settings. I've been on miui 9 for a bit and don't mind being on it for a while longer. it makes me wonder how different flyme os is. if battery is similar for both on stock and camera for m6n is already good out of the box without any tweaks needed then I'd probably regret the rn4 unless my experiences with custom roms can make it a lot better but I heard miui has the best battery life compared to most of them. I'm also wondering how google camera on rn4 would compare to m6n stock camera. idk much when it comes to hardware vs software but I'm planning to try it on my rn4 soon. apologies if i've offended any rn4 users i'm still noob because its new to me. maybe i shouldn't have posted about it before trying things first but i did need a comparison with another similar device. support for m6n would be great! even though i haven't bought one yet..
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] prater:
Hello, I unlocked the bootloader before turning 'Enable OEM unlock' on in developer options. Now the option is grayed out and I don't have access to the option anymore.

I want to root my phone, but I'm worried there will be problems since it's still turned off in developer options. What would be the best way to get 'Enable OEM unlock' enabled so I can turn it on?

I believe it's the following:

Boot to fastboot mode

From an adb shell, type fastboot oem lock (this will erase my device)

Restart phone, go to developer options, and turn 'Enable OEM unlock' on

Is this correct?
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] Chinyig:
When you unlock the bootloader the enable oem unlock switch in developer is grayed out. Its only available when you lock the bootloader. I don't think you'll encounter problems if you continue with rooting your phone. If you do encounter problems just download and flash the KDZ package to go back to stock.
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] fc3211:
I think you should lock the bootloader again, then toggle the switch ON in developer options and then unlock the bootloader and proceed. Im pretty sure that with that switch toggled on you wont be able to root or do much of anything else

I'm using adguard. To avoid some popup that coming from browser. And in the same time, if the apps have ads and i use the app continuesly, I'll purchased it, as im supporting the developer.
[Huawei Mate 10  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Pretoriano80:
Hi mate, i also hate aggressive ads, so after many trials and errors, i finally found the best (and also free and no Root) solution.

I'm using an app called "Virtual Hosts" which is blocking ADS by creating a local VPN and loading a host file.

The app is open source and you can get the apk for free, downloading it from here - > https://github.com/x-falcon/Virtual-Hosts/releases < - or from Playstore by paying it (both versions are identical).

Once installed, you can downloaded and use the "host" file from here - >

http://adblock.mahakala.is/ <- or use another one of your choice (i got the file from this thread - >

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1916098 )

In regards to browsers. I used to use Dolphin browser, which has a good ad blocker, but, ever since Oreo, it crashes when I enable the ad blocker. Anyone have luck using Dolphin? Firefox also has a pretty good ad blocker but I find it slow.
[Huawei Mate 10  Themes, Apps, and Mods] joppy:
A while back I had to send the much beloved Lg G3 to change screen, and the week it took before it was returned I had a loaner phone, a G5. Phone was not rooted so I added a adblock by DNS can't remember the name of it, but that thing ate battery as well as cpu. One could feel phone starting to bog down while surfing. That being said, I didn't put any time and effort into the loaner phone so I didn't try to tweak anything so the sluggish result could be my mistake also.

As soon as I have made a complete backup I will start trying these, and the virtual host one by one and put a small review here in this thread. I just learned that twrp should now also work for unrooted devices. That makes me very happy as it is familiar to use. Got to check out to see if maybe even Titanium now will work for unrooted phones as well. That would be really sweet.

Forgot how much work it is to get a new phone. Nothing is the same, and every brand UI got their own take on small bits and pieces just so we get our heart rate going :)

Root was never required for TWRP to work, only unlocked bootloader. Anyway, there's no TWRP available yet for Mate 10 Pro.

Titanium Backup will never work without root cause is the only way it can write on the /data partition.
[Huawei Mate 10  Themes, Apps, and Mods] joppy:
Oh ok I thought that no-root-needed was a new feature for twrp. I guess as Titanium will not work with un rooted phones neither will any other apps similar to Titanium?

Is there any apps similar to twrp that will work with Huawei Mate 10 Pro?

No matter what I guess I just have to start testing adblockers this weekend. Because I can't take all the ads I struggle with now. Too bad I didn't start out with the new phone by testing, before I sat up the phone they way it is now, with all apps, settings etc. Cos now if I would like a fresh start after testing various adblockers I will need to do the whole process of installing and tweaking all over again unless I find something like twrp for the Mate Pro 10.

Btw the xda app named my device BLA-L29, is that a name that is widely used for the Mate 10 Pro? Never seen this name before.
[Huawei Mate 10  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Pretoriano80:
Installing the app i recommended has no risk, you don't need to backup anything. If it works and you like it, then you keep it, if not, just uninstall the app simple as that.

That app is open source, so no bloatware or any hidden stuff, it doesn't use DNS to circumvent ads and doesn't track anything, all it does is pointing Internet traffic to your "host" file, it's nothing like AdGuard and similar apps that also sell your data to third parties.

It only takes 5 minutes to test and decide, without any harm. [emoji6]

One more thing to get sorted, and that is a backup. I would prefer to find a custom recovery image that works with Huawei Mate 10 Pro, and that will also work well for non-rooted devices.

I have only used twrp myself, but twrp will not work with Mate 10 Pro. I also know about cwm recovery, have not tried it yet but that one will only work for rooted devices. So neither twrp or cwm will work for the BLA-L29/Mate 10 Pro.
