[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] str8stryk3r:
Anyone else having issues with their settings changing with out user input? For instance, the lock screen keeps resetting back to the theme default. And also the screen timer of inactivity keeps going from the one minute I had it set at to the 15 seconds default and I never touch it?
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] RaiderWill:
A Suggestion..

May I Make A Suggestion... :cool:

Please try a Factory Reset.. and Do Not restore any apps for a couple of hours.

If the problem still exist, it's your device.

If the problem goes away, it's one of your apps.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] str8stryk3r:
Well, as of right now it's only been the screen time and the wallpaper. The wallpaper in gonna contribute to the theme possibly. But the screen of time is weird. Thanks for the suggestion but since it's that minor in gonna hold off on factory reset until we're able to root and twrp so I can backup.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Bigwood85:
so i was snooping around my phones priv-apps folder looking at all the code just cuz im trying to learn more about all of this and it all of a sudden restarted after attempting to open a file called test mode. ( I know, very stupid of me). any ways ive tried things to fix like wipe the dalvik cache etc etc no luck. Ive know created a new twrp recovery image and im wondering can i restore it in a way where i dont load one of the partitions that is causing the soft brick?? also im on a rooted stock image and have xposed installed as well as i had made a twrp recovery file inside the GUI of twrp in the app it self. Can i flash that? IE flash the file with out the boot partition selected???

PLEASE HELP
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] bbsc:
What's the problem at all? An annoying weird black square with writings on it?

Is it rooted?

Then simply open /efs/factoryapp/factorymode in a text editor (EFS Explorer, Root Explorer, etc.) and change "ON" to "OFF" (without quotes). Then reboot.

The problem is caused by EFS partition, so you may restore only this part of your backup.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] MysticFTW:
I have an att s8+ build g55USQU1AQJC, is this still root able without tripping Knox?

Will flashing the Odin files wipe my phone?

Has the 80% battery bug been fixed or is it just visual and not have any impact on battery life?

Last question when the new bootloader gets released on my device will that affect root?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Thanatos355:
You can't root without tripping Knox.

Yes, you will wipe your phone, probably twice, in the process of installing root.

80% bug has not been fixed. Probably won't be. It does have an impact. How much depends on your usage habits.

Until the devs get a hold of V3, that's hard to say. Most likely it will not be rootable for, at least, a little while. You won't be able to OTA anyway.

Anyone is more than welcome to correct me, if I got any of that incorrect. Been a few since I've combed through all the pertinent threads.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] MysticFTW:
I thought I read somewhere samfail root won't trip Knox.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Thanatos355:
I have the same model device as you. Straight from AT&T, part of their pre-order deal, fwiw. I've used both methods for root, and can confirm that things that use Knox (e.g. Samsung Pay) both detects root and refuses to function thereafter.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] MysticFTW:
What your describing is normal of any root but I'm asking about Knox warranty status.

Can you boot to download mode to check Knox status?

Here is a tutorial if you don't how to check knox

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] MysticFTW:
Awesome I didn't want to risk if it tripped Knox.

How noticeable is having only 80% battery on a daily basis?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Thanatos355:
Honestly, not that bad. I almost always still make it through a full day, 7am-11pm or so, of use before I plug it in. I read on it extensively, text and message regularly, and play a few different games on it, that I launch every hour or two.

I did have a problem with battery life, at first, with Pwn, but had zero issues with Fail, and ended up going back to Pwn with no issues at all.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] MysticFTW:
Why did you go back?

Sorry to be asking so many questions I just wanna cover my bases.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Thanatos355:
Messing around with Substratum late one night, screwed things up (totally on me, I knew the risks), and decided to try Pwn again. I had been wanting to see if the battery issue was a fluke. All in all, I vastly prefer PartyCyborg's rom, but not enough to immediately switch back. I figure when he drops the next release, I'll switch back.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] MysticFTW:
Ok I plan to substratum as well

[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] Chad_Petree:
I'm looking for something that looks like the official iphone x silicon case , I love the silicone cases for the iphone that apple sells, they offer decent protection + grip + and it doesnt make the phone super bulky! They're also just one color, very minimalistic.

Have you found something similar?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] Wilazn:
There's a few on the case thread. Spigen thin armor and mpro snap case are 2 I can think of off the top of my head
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] Chad_Petree:
The thin armor doesnt look particularly minimalistic, it has 2 parts that go together and also that top part it's just hard and probably slippery hard plastic :(

The snap case does not cover the top of the phone :crying:
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] smallsmx301:
These cases are polycarbonate, not silicone. I wouldn't compare them to the iPhone cases
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] Wilazn:
Ops I didn't mean think armor I meant the Spigen Thin Fit. Also the Maxboost msnap case covers the top.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] ginfest:
I have that mSnap. Awesome minimalistic case, great grip, very thin. I go between that and the Google carbon cloth case. Only issue with the mSnap - its a tight fit and a little hard to take off.

Both work perfect with the Invisishield TGSP.

But the msnap it's also just a piece of hard plastic , it's no silicone :(

[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] Wilazn:
Not sure why you insist on it being silicone. It collects dust in pocket, hard as hell to slip in and out of pocket due to the rubber texture, and loses its shape over time from stretching.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] Chad_Petree:
Because silicone does not fly out of my hand like glossy /smooth plastic does , rubber is not slippery :)

I almost posted the same thing a few days ago. Kinda funny how many hours I spent trying to find a silicone case for the OP. Not because I want one, but mostly because I am fascinated there isn't one.

Looks like lots of other people doing the same thing. Kinda a neat community we've got here. :cool:
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] ourtech:
I don't think that anything like the Apple case exists. I, too, am a lover of the Apple case and can't find anything like it for non-Apple products. Spent weeks looking for one for my V30 and now that I am looking at a Pixel 2 XL I started the same search. Nothing has come up. Most "silicone" cases are just TPU, not true silicone rubber. Love the feel. For those that haven't tried it, an amazing case. Sadly, not sure what I would use if I take the plunge.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Azul Baseem:
I can't take it anymore. The G5 was a letdown in many ways but do you think we could start a Reddit (or something) and demand information from LG about Oreo release track? Rather than wishing we should get enough momentum going to ask.

This phone has so many issues Oreo is the LEAST LG can do for the people who missed out on the lawsuit, so let's not pretend that we don't deserve answers guys.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProjectAlly:
So my main issue right now is no sound whatsoever unless I use a wired headset (earbuds etc).

No sound through speaker. Any changes made in options to troubleshoot have failed.

Also, I have no camera app at all. It's like it never existed for this phone.

I'd be okay with it, simply because I finally got the phone up and running again after a battery and mid-frame assembly replacement, but I need sound and camera. Especially the camera due to my banking app.

My Setup

twrp-3.2.1-0-shamu

RR-N-Neo-v5.8.5-20180119-shamu-Unofficial - Android N 7.1.2

open_gapps-arm-7.1-mini-20180122

Magisk 15.3 (from official XDA thread)

*optionally - Viper4android 2.5.0.5

So the two main problems are no sound at all unless I have headphones in.

No camera app or anything

I will add, I can access the non-existent camera through the gallery app included in that RR Neo build, but it FC's immediately and continually.

I've done every wipe imaginable minus a factory image flash of the last Nougat build for our phones.

Complete wipes including: in TWRP the "yes" option on Format Data.

Factory Reset followed by Dalvik, Cache, System, and Data wipes.

Essentially everything I've been doing without issue for the few years I've owned this phone.

If anymore info is needed I'm willing to provide it, sincerely hope someone can help me diagnose or possibly fix this phone.

Seriously, thanks for any help provided.

Just help me get away from this iPhone 5 loaner :D
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neo:
The above concerns me...

Was the sound working prior to the replacement?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProjectAlly:
Yep, was working perfectly before replacement and for about a day or so after.

Only issue I had sound-wise was with static-y audio when headphones or aux cable was plugged in for my car's head unit.

Not sure what happened. I did notice on the mid-frame assembly I bought, there was no earphone speaker, it's the module next to the camera. So today I added it to the new mid-frame and no dice...also to be sure I used my old headphone jack on the old frame, and no change.

Could it be the battery isn't strong enough?

EDIT:

The battery I bought: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01DJZMJH4/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Midframe: https://www.fixez.com/motorola-nexus-6-midframe-and-bezel-midnight-blue
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neo:
No, wouldn't be the battery.

Ok so, that speaker you added to the mid frame by the camera on top, has two pins. Those two pins need to be facing towards the camera (they touch two metal contacts). If those pins aren't touching those contacts, it won't work. Likewise, the speaker on the bottom that is attached to the motherboard, has two tiny pins (one on each side) that make contact to two metal plates on the mid frame. Check and make sure these things are making contact.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProjectAlly:
So I just checked the contacts, and that speaker is seated properly.

No sound.

It's killing me right now. This battery is doing fantastic, but I can't use the phone.

Still no camera either. Just doesn't show up in app drawer, on launcher or anywhere but gallery.

Starting to think the phone might be a goner. Which would be a shame... :(
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neo:
That's a shame man. Sounds like something was either damaged during the replacement or some ribbon cables may not have been seated all the way, idk. If it were me, I'd do a complete tear down and put it all back together and hope for the best.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProjectAlly:
UPDATE:

[MENTION=4203241]Neo[/MENTION]

I took your suggestion, tore everything apart, at least on the frame, turns out the frame wasn't making good contact with the LCD panel. Once that was established, I put everything together again and thankfully had one of the last factory images released from Google, re-flashed stock with the toolkit, and once it booted up, camera worked and so did the sound! But only out of one speaker.

Checked the frame again, turns out the new one had that clear plastic blue, sticky tape looking stuff, moved that and bottom speaker worked too.

TL;DR

Problem solved, turns out I wasn't thorough enough with making sure all ribbons and modules were making contact with the frame and LCD panel. Oh and flashing a factory image fixed all software related problems (no camera app showing up or working etc).

Happy camper for now!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neo:
That was the only thing I could think of :)

Improper contact with the pins. If you had done all this and it still didn't work, I'd have been at a loss lol. Glad you're up and running.

[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] bloodbath:
Hello. I just purchased the US version of the Honor 7x, but really hate having apps like Instagram and Facebook on my phone. I don't use them. If I root my phone, is it possible to remove these apps and maybe a few unused Google apps and still receive any future OTA? Thanks in advance.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] trsix:
Good question phone hasn't arrived yet but definitely don't want crapbook and tweaker on it.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] iammudd:
Sadly, on the first OTA for Mate2, removing one of the Huawei-created bloatware caused the update to fail. Don't know what the policy is now. So I'd keep backups of removed bloatware. (I think that the OTA was trying to update one of the missing bloatware but there was no option to ignore the error and continue with simply the OS upgrade.)
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] SVR:
You can't apply OTA even if you unroot after root without even touching system apps. This is the case with 7X.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] str8stryk3r:
It's not the removing of bloat that causes problems with OTA's. It's what you have to do in order to remove bloat which is rooting the phone. Rooting modifies the system data which then fails the check performed when an OTA tries to install. Rooting modifies the system partition and adding twrp modifies the boot partition. So as of now doing anything other than unlocking the bootloader will give you problems whenever we get official OTA.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] iammudd:
That's unfortunate. It has been many years since the Mate2 but I don't recall it being as restrictive back then. If I recall correctly, I was able to leave the phone rooted as long I restored stock bootloader and stock recovery. But the OTA failed when it was trying to update one or more of the Huawei apps so I only had to restore the boatware from TB.

I guess I should keep backups of all stock images before rooting. Thanks for the info.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] bloodbath:
This is very disheartening to hear. With the new additions (e. g. Facial recognition) supposedly incorporated into the next update, I would like to keep OTA. The other items taking up space on my phone is very annoying though. Oh well, I guess the apps aren't a big issue for now. I just wish Huawei would have let us choose our own apps.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] str8stryk3r:
Well eventually/hopefully, we'll get some devs to pick up development on the device where twrp, root, and custom roms will let us get our phones to the way we want them. I stayed away from twrp and rooting just for that reason. I just disabled all the crap they added that I don't use
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] bloodbath:
Seeing that the initial popularity and price point for the quality of phone have been positive so far, I do think that will happen. I too am staying away until it occurs. I have ignored the apps I don't like for now, but truly miss apps like Adaway and Titanium Backup, which require root. Oh well, soon hopefully.
