[Moto G4 Play Questions & Answers] dwycoff2013:
BIG BREAKTHROUGH (at least for myself) :

So for some time now, I've thought that I had hard-bricked my moto XT1609, and I thought what I needed would be best summarized with the words 'blankflash template'. This sent me on a furious wild goose chase for Qualcomm drivers, deactivating driver signature enforcement on a Windows computer, etc., etc. . . You catch my drift. Well, long story short, I ended up coming across another XT1609 (same variant) and since the charger port and screen were all effed up, I just changed out the motherboards and viola! I had my G⁴ Play back in working order. I rooted with auto-init root, and everything was working fine. I took the battery out after powering down, placed my sim and microSD card, and upon attempting the boot, I panicked. It was doing the same thing the last motherboard was doing: showing the "moto" boot screen, vibrating, then black screen, a flash, and it looped. I couldn't load recovery nor kernel. So, I tried to uninstall the init root, and attempted boot, but to no avail.

I was certain all was lost.

However, after reading the PDF of the essay where the bootloader vulnerability was discovered, I decided to utilise fastboot in hopes of saving the kernel from crashing (i assumed the black screen, and the flash was the bootloader attempting to load the kernel). My commands:

fastboot oem config fsg-id vzw (I have the vzw variant)

fastboot oem config carrier vzw

fastboot continue

And success! I saved the kernel from crashing. I urge anyone else having the same problem I described to try fastboot commands using your carrier's id in lieu 'vzw' and let me know the results, please!

Sent from my resurrected vzw xt1609

P.S. I also just had the same problem with this phone again, however this time I set the carrier id blank (as it were from the factory) and let the fsg-id be set by the auto-init root script..

Anyone (senior/recognized members) have any input on what's actually going on here? I'd love to actually be aware of what I'm changing and how it's affecting the boot.
[Moto G4 Play Questions & Answers] thalwegz:
Hi, dwycoff2013

I'm trying to resurrect my locked bootloader vzn XT1609, as well. I don't think I have a hardware issue. I upgraded to Android 7.1.1 a month or so ago and it was running fine until a few days ago when it started bootlooping much in the way you've described. The blue splash screen comes up for 5 or 10 seconds then the screen goes black, then the blue screen comes up for 5 or 10 seconds, then it goes black, ad infinitum. Well, sometimes it actually goes farther, gets to the screen with the dancing colored dots before rebooting but this is very rarely. I tried installing the auto-init initroot image on it but it sends back a "Permission denied" error for it. I'm wondering if it's because I have 7.1.1 images installed instead of something older?

Anyway, your fastboot commands don't fix anything for me. It continues to bootloop. What version of Android were you running when you tried this?

Thanks!
[Moto G4 Play Questions & Answers] dwycoff2013:
I was using the 6.0.1 vzw firmware. Can you get to the bootloader with power and vol- ?
[Moto G4 Play Questions & Answers] dwycoff2013:
I'm assuming you can, considering you're mention of using the fastboot commands. Well, I'd say to install the QFIL & QPST tools, along with the Qualcomm Bulk HS-USB drivers. Once you get to the bootloader, try 'fastboot reboot edl' and it should put the device into Qualcomm's Emergency Download Mode and your computer should recognise the device as QC HS-USB 9008 DL, I believe. If that doesn't work, perhaps try taking the battery out, holding the vol+ button and inserting your USB cable.
[Moto G4 Play Questions & Answers] thalwegz:
Hi again, dwycoff2013

Sorry I haven't responded earlier. I had to finish my taxes and get my W10 boot working again. I was using Linux Mint in my previous attempts. I'm going to try and install the Qualcomm stuff you recommended but maybe you can answer a few more questions in the meantime:

1. My goal at this point is to get the stock Moto images running again. It appears that this is what you were able to do, from your description. Will running the Qualcomm utilities allow me to do this or will they only allow me to install Qualcomm images?

2. Do the Qualcomm utilities come with a version of fastboot that understand "reboot edl"?

3. My phone has a locked bootloader. I'm assuming that this is why my previous attempts to reflash failed. Can the Qualcomm utilites work when the phone is locked?

4. Can you point me to the pdf document that you were talking about?

Thanks. I'm sorry to sound like a newbie at this Android stuff, but this is what I am :)

Same issue

Started several days ago.

LG G4 contacts very slow to find a name. When answering a call, only number displayed without a name.

Viewed device CPU per app and the contacts storage app (android.process.acore) consuming ~15% CPU almost all the time.

Have no idea what happened but phone quite useless, as searching for contacts takes very long time.

Anyone has an idea what to do or what happened?

Try this: Remove accounts from accounts and sync from settings which you are not using. Mostly you might have lot of google accounts linked to your mobile use your primary account and if there are some accounts which you are not using please remove it or sync limited google apps with those apart from primary account.

[Galaxy S3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcperaltah:
To developers.

My question is simple. After years to discover where are the files to the nominal capacity of a battery, i know that the system stores this data in a file called charge_full_design.

In my s3 neo (I9301I) the original battery capacity is 2100 Mah and that file contents only a number (2100000).

My answer is very simple. What are i to do to change this number with the capacity of my battery (anker 7200 mah) in that file?. The system tell me that i Can't do.

Thanks.

My rom now CM 11 ( :) )

In total commander it keeps saying that it can't be saved because of not enough memory. And in TWRP mod I slide to apply chmod 755 but then nothing happens.

[Galaxy S3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NicolasLukas:
The file is located in sys/devices/qpnp-charger-e89dec00/power_supply/battery "charge_full" and "charge_full_design". I don´t know if this is the correct file that determines the recognized battery capacity.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] needforszpit:
I try a solution bu its not tested...

1. download and install: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.battery.chargingstatus

Install termux: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.termux

2. Save on PC framework-res.apk ( find it on: /sytem/framework directory) editable in apk: /res/xml/power_profile.xml U find a line with: battery.capacity 2100....change to 7200

For that action I use Kubuntu linux and MC(midnight commander).

Save ....

3.Upload to your phone the edited apk.

4.Start recovery mode...delete original framework-res.apk and copy the edited apk :)

5. reboot sytem.

6. Start Termux and use commands:

su

echo 7200000 /sys/class/power_supply/battery/charge_full_design

7. Reboot

8 Start battery status app and its show 7200:)

"echo 7200000 /sys/class/power_supply/battery/charge_full_design".....useless:(...its not rewrite the file...

Other....the rewrite of framework-res.apk its just a "looklike" thing...in chargingstatus looks battery like 7200 but on system works like an original :(

What is the magic registry key entry or .cab file to prevent the power button tap / screen lock (and probably also the End key) from ending a current data session? (Similar to WindowsMobile Smartphone Phone ControlPanel "Flags2" setting, which does not seem to match what is on my Tilt) ?

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] mmuntean2:
Hello,

Can someone please try to explain this to me:

When I flash a multi CSC firmware on my S8, from the same region as my original firmware, how will the phone decide with CSC to assign from the multi-CSC list?

Example:

I have an S8 from Vodafone Romania and I want to flash the Romanian ROM firmware. But this firmware also contains other European unbranded CSC codes.

On what basis will the phone assign ROM as CSC to my phone? Based on the SIM card?

Many thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] mmuntean2:
No matter.

I have reflashed my branded Vodafone S8 with the open firmware for Romania. After, did a wipe cache and factory. Then the phone asked me to accept another reset to apply features from my sim card. Done that and the CSC is now the one from my country ROM. So, short answer, keep the sim card you want the CSC for in the phone to have specific settings

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Simone98RC:
Maybe you've messed up with encryption?

When I decided to remove stock encryption and force it with custom rom, only 24 GB of storage were shown.

According to my experience, in this case you've to:

1) Put device in TWRP (be sure to use latest version);

2) Wipe all partitions;

3) Install latest ADB on PC;

4) Put device in Bootloader Mode and plug it to PC;

5) Type from Terminal fastboot format userdata and wait until it ends;

6) Go back to TWRP and now install latest OxygenOS full firmware (stock or open beta it doesn't matter);

7) Do a first boot with OOS: maybe there's a dialog about device encryption, confirm that;

8) Now your storage space would be fixed.

Everything else works fine, it's just the steering wheel keys.

I originally had a PX3 MTCD KLD which was on like 1.4, bought the PX5 upgrade and upgraded the MCU to 2.78.

Sometimes it starts working randomly after half an hour or so, sometimes it works instantly, but only after being in standby.

Anyone have any ideas on how to debug/fix?
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] xbenjiiman:
Attached a logcat from boot.

The only line that I can find that might have something to do with it is:

But that wouldn't explain it suddenly starting to work.
