[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lankyjr123:
So here's the thing, my mom gave me her Galaxy Grand Prime. Both the LCD and Digitizer screens were broken. So I replaced them and both were working successfully. So I went into the hidden service menu while I was checking it out. While in there I clicked to update Touch Screen Firmware (TSF). I then exited from the hidden service menu and UH-OH. The touchscreen wasn't working properly. To Click on any thing I had to touch below and to the right of what I wanted to click (unless below and to the right was off screen, in which case I couldn't access it. So then I Hard Factory Reset the phone. Unfortunately it still did the same thing. I searched web for a solution with no luck (not even a sign of anyone having such an issue). The device is not rooted. So can anyone tell me what I can do? I tried to find a Original Touchscreen Firmware file I might could use recovery mode to flash install on there from memory card. Or do I have to replace touchscreen/digiter screen again?

Hallo XDA!

I have a chinese P10 VTR-AL00 (Build VTR-AL00C00B167) here but I want to flash a European stock ROM onto this devices. Can you give me any pointers on how I would do that? I currently dont get the OEMINFO and stuff.

So as many out there I broke the phone screen.

It only broke the outside glass, the screen itself still works fine, except for a little blue area/dot (screen as been broken for months so probably moister got it)

I'm not certain of what to buy (I do want a new screen with no blue dot) as prices and product names are very confusing

I'll probably buy this aliexpress

Is this the whole screen?

Does anyone recomends something else?
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime Accessories] Danoz88:
I replaced the whole screen including the frame. I'm happy with it. No touch issues and multitouch passed with 10 fingers. I bought this one.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Clorky:
Hey there. So, after having to live with Lumia 930 for the past three years, I got drunk in a bar on Saturday and smashed the phone several times against the table pretty hard. I was telling myself for the past year (after the WP 10 update) that I will break that phone and I finally did. The display doesn't work, yet the phone boots up normally.

My last experience with Android was with LG OO (P500), and Android Froyo 2.2 in 2010/2011. I do remember some stuff, like rooting, custom recovery and flashing new ROMs. The problem is, I have no idea how far has it gotten by this point.

So I have several questions that I need to get answered. I will have the phone tommorow.

1. Should I root the phone? If so, how?

2. Should I flash a new ROM? If so, which?

3. Is there anything I should do to the phone to raise it's battery life, performance, cam quality etc. and is safe? How?

4. What are some absolutely neccessary tweaks to consider?
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] L0cke:
1. https://xdaforums.com/lg-g6/how-to/official-lg-g6-bootloader-unlock-t3614719

Whether you should or should not, is up to you. What do you want to achieve by rooting/using another ROM. Depends on your needs.

2. See above. What don't you like about the current stock one? If you like stock but want more tweaks, try Fulmics. If you don't like stock try one of the Lineage ROMs. Bear in mind that phone calls via a bluetooth speaker (e.g. in car) don't work so well in current Lineage ROMs.

3. Turn stuff off, remove battery hogging apps, try another ROM or Kernel etc. Your mileage may vary though. For Camera, try one of the ported Google Cameras - You can find threads here in the G6 forums. There are loads to try and some of the latest ones are working great!

4. There are no such "absolutely neccessary tweaks". It's what you consider necessary.

I would have a look around and think about what you want. When you get your phone it's worth doing a basic setup to see what you think. If you want to unlock/flash another ROM, do it early as doing so will erase all data on the phone, so saves some pain later when having to set everything up again.

[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Clorky:
Can I install the google cam apk without root or anything?
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] L0cke:
Yeah, just install it like a normal apk.

Download it and open it. Make sure you uncheck Allow Install of Unknown Sources in Settings first. It might even prompt you to do it during the install.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] jshames:
1. The question is mostly moot, since LG doesn't even allow unlocking of bootloaders of most G6 models. Only the European H870 is supported.

2. See above. If you can root and enjoy tinkering (and blowing hours of time) and don't mind risking bricking of your phone, go ahead. Unlike in the past, rooting and custom ROMs don't allow much more than modern stock ROMs. As you can see from other's answers, the custom ROMs use a somewhat more updated version of Nougat. (Stock is a version of 7.0) Note than with some custom ROMs you might not be able to use secured apps like Netflix or banking apps.

3. Battery life is fine (although not consistent). You'll easily get a whole day unless you spend most of the day gaming. Do the usualy things to cut battery consumption if you run low. Performance is good. The camera has potential but the low light performance of the built in camera software is crappy. Its over-processed. Use a modified version of Google Camera available on these forums. (no root needed). I've had no problems with bluetooth connection to my car (Mazda).

4. No essential tweaks, but that is personal taste. The LG interface is pretty feature rich, includes theming and fonts, and offers launchers with either an Iphone-like home screen or the traditional Android screen with an app drawer and widgets. Of course you can use any launcher you want, like Google Now or Nova.

Overall I am very satisfied with the phone, especially using the modded Gcam. Some people here have complained about the lack of frequent updates, but this is a matter of expectations. The G6 is expected to get an Oreo update by June.

Enjoy!

Hi everyone,

So basically I wanna download and install the latest Chinese firmware for my xperia xz coz it has less bloatware and If I remember correctly, most of the bloat that come with it can be uninstalled without root!

The problem, however, is the lack of play store and its services. Does anyone know a workaround for this issue?

I found another temporal solution to get back the imei in stock rom.

Wee need:

- TWRP 3.2.1

- This flashable stock rom: http://www.mediafire.com/file/79spjgvj7eklr4g/potter_NPNS25.137-15-11_sdat4.zip

steps:

- Flash a custom 8.1 rom(i tested with Pixel Experience).

- Backup the EFS file*

- Wipe Davilk, System, Data, Cache.

- Flash flashable stock rom with TWRP.

- Restore the EFS file.

- Reboot and we got back the imei.

* Note that first we need to start the flashed Pixel Experience Rom(and get signal i think too), restart recovery and then make the backup of the EFS file, cause i made the backup without starting, flashed the stock and restored the EFS file, imei was not.

UPDATE: You also can do it with any stock rom. In this form you only need to flash the twrp and restore the EFS file or flash the rom via fastboot, flash twrp and restore the EFS file.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The-Hoff:
Hello, I'm a fresh member of this forum and recently upgraded my Galaxy Samsung S4 (i9505) from stock to AOSP Oreo. After the upgrade everything worked more or less as expected, the ROM is stable enough for daily use.

Unfortunately the S-view is not working like expected, if I open the (original) Samsung s-view cover the screen lights up and if I close the cover the screen goes off, but there is no clock in the display as before. Also with an incoming phone call the screen doesn't show up, or I can pick up the call by wiping over the cover window.

I installed the files below:

Unofficial TWRP recovery.img

JDCTeam-8.1.0-20171209-BETA.zip

open_gapps-arm-8.1-nano-20180119-UNOFFICIAL.zip

Kernel-B--B-PWR-CORE-AOSP-O-v3.2.zip

SR5-SuperSU-v2.82-SR5-20171001224502.zip

Also, I tried the 'S View Lite' app from play store. After closing the cover the screen is shown for a few milliseconds,but no sulution there. I also repeated the installation a few times (thanks for the nice youtube video's) to be sure I made no mistakes.

Because I miss the S-view functionality like it worked before, I post this question on the Q&A (my question on jdcteam-android-source-project-oreo-t3685231 did not get much response). Maybe someone can help me to get it going, tell me if it's working on her/his dvice or tell me I have to live with it like it is :)?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bilatche:
there is no lineageOS rom with the Sview.

the Sview is based only on TW rom, so nothing newer more than a 5.0.1 TW rom.

and all Sview apps don't work correctly.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krasCGQ:
If you want S View, go back to TouchWiz.

If it's ever going to work on AOSP ROMs, it only does to lock the screen instead.

Only way to boot twrp later is to use fastboot with ADB, recovery with buttons doesn't work.

if the device wont boot a rom use adb to get back in recovery.

if you use bank apps, install magisk before installing rom, do not get SU
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SofaSpud:
Only problem is that the info linked to above applies to ONE G4 variant only - the H815 international model. The rest of us are SOL. The bootloader on US carrier G4 - AT&T, T-Mo, VzW, etc (most later firmware revisions for G3 as well) models has been nailed down. The only exception is a G4 with ARB <= 2 can be hacked with UsU in order to root it and install a custom recovery.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThePiGuy:
Tmo is very easy

Go to dev options and enable adb

Then run "adb reboot bootloader"

Once there, run "fastboot oem unlock" and voila, you have an officially unlocked bootloader with no restrictions related to UsU

Please be aware the above will factory reset your device

Why v20o

Remember, this has nothing to do with UsU and therefore ARB etc doesn't matter

Edit: ps there are loads of H811 users in my Lineage thread and the other ROMs too
