[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Daan_K:
Okay at first my phone model on the back of my device is, as i mentioned before, "zte a2017g" thats the european version of this phone, chinese is "a2017" and the us version is "2017u".

The file i used 2 downgrade was the stock rom from the official website of zte

it was the full edl file buildnumber b10.

and again i once sofbricked it, i know how 2 fix that, but now it hard bricked, well i think so at least, i cant get it to boot into bootloader, recovery or anything, when i hold the power button it shakes the device, and it shows the zte logo for about 2 seconds then it disappears, and nothing happens but my computer does recognize it as a connected device but i cant use miflash of something else because those programs dont see it.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Choose an username...:
all right. it's still freaking weird. Use my DFU unbrick guide but only do step 4 and 5 (but use the files on the top anyways)(you just have to hold Vol+ and Vol - and insert the cable instead of taking the phone apart and shorting pins). After that check the driver, if it is still Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 then flash with MiFlash, if not, tell me what appears
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Daan_K:
allright allready thanks loads for your support but could you maybe send the right file to flash because i have no idea, and please, the files for a2017g not a2017 or a2017u thankyou so much
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Choose an username...:
they are in the guide. at the top, there's a link to WesTD's EDL flashable files. Get one for A2017G, for example B09
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Daan_K:
Allright, thankyou so much my dude
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Daan_K:
aight, as i thought this didnt work, i tired it but miflash basicly just gave me an error notification.

also when i go into device manager i can see that my device is connected but i show the name with a yellow triangle with a ! in it i have no clue what this means can u please help me with this. i rlly want my phone back
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Choose an username...:
First of all, if you get an error TELL ME what it says!

Send me a screenshot of the device manager, i can do very little with "yellow triangle"

Don't bother? That guy is using XDA as a free emergency support without looking for one second.

He probably would like you to do a teamviewer while he's watching football with a beer and not even say thank you.

rlly m8. im just a guy who needs help with his phone the guy "choose a username..." i helping me with it, ive been unable 2 fix my phone with any of the other threads i just need some help and i have said thanks alot, dont call me that
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] RedWave31:
Sorry, I don't believe you for one second. Like litterally THOUSANDS of people here and here opening "bricked plz hlp" threads, you didn't even have the BASIC, LOWEST courtesy of writing more than 10 words of gibberish whining about your situation, without a single usefull element of context.

Proof of that in the NUMEROUS questions asked about ELEMENTARY elements about your situation. You're litterally the kind of person that would go to a car mechanic, drop the keys on the counter saying "my car is broken, fix it" and just leave without a single word added. That's RUDE and, yeah, I'm tired AF of people like you who can't READ THE DAMN XDA RULES and got NOT education whatsoever.

Nd writng frm a phone in T9 mde dsnt rlly bring nythng mre on the tble either.

Too bad you found somebody to help, as it's only encouraging that kind of behaviour.

this is a screenshot of my device manager, and what I meant with yellow triangle, also it doesn't work with the edl-tool nor the axon7tool
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Choose an username...:
Okay, let's try two things:

First right click on it and uninstall the device, also delete driver software for the device (it will be a checkbix asking for that after you hit 'uninstall device'). After that, hold Volume up, Volume down, and Power until the Device manager refreshes. After that the driver should reinstall itself. If it still shows with the yellow triangle, right click it, click on Properties, and send me a screenshot (or translate me what it says on the status part)

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] xzolteu:
Hi, I wanted to change charging sound of custom rom, cuz its so annoying. So I wanted to change it, but I m not able to find charging sounds in system/media/sounds/ui. I even deleted the media folder, and every sound dissapeared, except charging, so it ISNT in system/media. I was able to change lock, unlock, touch and keyboard sounds, but charging ones are no where to be found. Does anyone know where is the file of charging sound in custom roms?
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] kolembo:
So.

I received the OTA last night.

As I was downloading it, I went over to XDA and found that people were having problems with this update.

When I checked on this forum, there were people having the same problem but it seemed that some were not.

I looked on the internet to see if anyone from Xiaomi had addressed this problem and found none.

so I took the update about ten minutes ago and guess what?

Well, I'm writing from my One Plus 5T.

BOOTLOOP!!

I'm astonished.

It is connected to using the THEMES APP.

Everything looks fine, then you try and change your theme.

Suddenly you are booted into recovery and from there, a continuous BOOTLOOP, there's nothing you can do about it.

Listen, a bad update is possible, not everyone is perfect - but an official STABLE update that breaks your phone is UNACCEPTABLE.

I love Xiaomi and was quite perplexed at the complaints I was seeing - so yes, it's my fault, I went ahead with the update.

I couldn't find any information so I wanted to do this so that other people can save themselves.

I was an extreme Xiaomi fan....I was eagerly awaiting the Mi 7 Ceramic - I now am not. I have Xiaomi products everywhere, I've been telling all my friends and business partners about Xiaomi....

This is Global. The Mi6 is the standard-bearer for a global Xiaomi...but it won't work like this.

Never in my whole time on Android have I ever received an official update that broke the phone. Never.

Note: I am on the Stable track, all stock, never tampered with, OTA directly to my phone from Xiaomi. Directly.

This cannot happen.

Xiaomi needs to be careful here - they need to pull that update immediately AND reach out to those who cannot now use their phones.

It's a huge breach of trust and exactly the kind of thing which if not dealt with quickly, will spread globally and it will be very difficult to rectify.

Xiaomi is not the only manufacturer out there - mobile business 101 is you "...take your users with you."

I am astonished just looking at my phone loop, and loop, and loop. On an official update. Incredible.

Huawei/HTC/OnePlus...Vernee even: everyone's out there.

I might even just buy a Nokia and see what they're up to.

I am incredibly disappointed - and embarrassed.

So.

DO NOT UPDATE!

Or be like me and join the club. What do I use this phone for now? And it's less than 3 months old. A Ceramic Coaster?

I don't know what to say.

Incredible.
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] xMiguelin:
I have updated, and I have no problem ... although the old notifications have returned.
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] kolembo:
P.S.

Ok - yeah, I was pretty angry.

I just did a factory reset.

It works from there.

So it's a simple fix.

I just wish Xiaomi had said - reset your phone.

It's an update.

*Sigh*

How cann i do factory reset from recovery? There are 3 options: 1)reboot, 2)Wipe Data, 3)Connect with MiAssistant.

Can you please tell me how to do it?
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] ponitsoua:
I did the update. No problems so far, including using the theme app.
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] kolembo:
Unfortunately you have to wipe DATA

It will factory reset - you loose everything!

Ah. I wish they had said that from the word go.
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] orditeck:
Worst update ever. Double notification, permanent Android system notification, buggy animations everywhere. I updated to 9.2.2 a few days before 9.2.3 and was like OMG good job Xiaomi can't believed this update is so good look at those awesome notifications and stuff! I was loving Xiaomi so much, I'm always nervous when buying Chinese electronics because I'm never sure about after sale but after having my phone several months and having bought another Xiaomi phone for my wife, I was just 100% into Xiaomi. I was putting cash aside to buy the new laser projector and vacuum robot for our new house.

So anyway. When I saw 9.2.3 just after updating to 9.2.2 I was like wow I can't believe I'll receive even more awesome features.

Oh man.

I hate my phone now.

This update is the worst thing that happened to my phone. I lost my trust in Xiaomi. It took time to gain trust. Took a few minutes to lose.

Do not update.

Do NOT update.
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Zhoreb:
Wish I had seen this warning earlier. Was messing around with themes today, and after 3 applied themes the phone suddenly rebooted to recovery. And nothing else.

My phone is locked, USB debugging disabled. Cannot fastboot anything.

Guess I will try the wipe option. Sigh.

For battery performance it's too early to speak about. The disturbing "Messenger is drawing over other apps" somwthing like this as a message and the one that is running in the background, are still there.

[Xiaomi Mi 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] sam00561:
I am currently on 9.2.3.0 also I've only had the phone 3 days and took all available updates. I installed a theme and had bootloop which went into recovery so I wiped everything realising it was the only option. My bootloader will be unlocked in a couple of days and I want to get away from mui all together. After installing twrp will I be able to install any of the roms here or am I limited to only the Oreo based ones because I'm not too sure. Also why is there a firmware file which has to be installed before installing any rom I've never seen that on any other phone thanks for reading.

Can someone please tell me about second space? If i do it will i lose my photos? But every time i get an update everything is lost. It's my first xiaomi and i never had that problem with previous phones. When i was flashing a new Rom i kept my photos.

I would like to install a lockscreen app that is simple, nothing fancy and contains only the following:

time and date with day of the week

weather info with a simple sunny/cloudy/rainy/windy icon and degree

can display app notifications with the first two lines of the message, the screen wakes up when receiving a notification

there's a quick access button to the camera

compatible with the 18:9 screen ratio and MIUI 9

doesn't contain advertisements

I've tried a lot of MIUI themes and from all of them I liked the lockscreen from theme "Cynroi" the best. I used CM locker on my previous phones, but I just can't make it work on MIUI Global stable 9.2.6. I would be glad if you had any suggestions or ideas.

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] iamnotkurtcobain:
Many of you saw the Geekbench Scores of the S9 Exynos.

Scores are ~3700 in single core and ~9000 in multi core.

Now I saw this article and the line where it says the Exynos will be tuned down to match the (much slower) Snapdragon model got my attention...

Can someone who has a retail unit (store worker,..) confirm the high Geekbench scores?

Article:

https://www.anandtech.com/show/12478/exynos-9810-handson-awkward-first-results
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] TEKHD:
After reading your post and the page you linked... I have absolutely no words. I already bought (pre-order) the S9+ SM-G965FD just because of the Exynos 9810. (Specially after looking at the CPU benchmarks that you are referring to) Every single year, the Exynos outperforms the Snapdragon... not by much... but it is ALWAYS better... Better performance, better battery live, runs cooler... etc. But... this particular year (with the S9/S9+), after watching a bunch of YouTube videos, online reports and benchmarks, it seemed like the Exynos was going to totally kill the Snapdragon variant. I really hate the Qualcomm Snapdragon with their locked bootloader, locked everything, mediocre CPU performance. I hate it as much as I hate Apple. So... I really really really hope that information does not apply to a real consumer S9/S9+ unit. As soon as I get my S9+, the very 1st thing I am going to do is run Antutu 7 and Geekbench 4.

So... as OP mentioned... we need some Samsung Exynos 9810 vs Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 benchmarks... (real retail S9/S9+ unit)
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] iamnotkurtcobain:
[MENTION=4107827]TEKHD[/MENTION]

Absolutely.

The first thing I do when I get my S9 is running a Geekbench.

If single core is not ~3700 and multi core ~ 9000 I send it right back.

I know some say benchmarks are useless but this clearly shows if the new Exynos is a big step up or not. S7 and S8 almost had the same CPU/GPU power.

DON'T tune it down Samsung. Please..
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] force70:
I read the same thing, its going to deter people from getting the exynos and piss off people who buy it and find out later.

Samsung get more and more stupid as the years pass honestly
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] RaduNastase:
Why don't we wait and see some real life results. Let's not ignore the fact that while it scores lower in some benchmarks, Snapdragon is so much better in games and emulators than Exynos. Just look at the tests comparing S8 variants. If it's again the same story, Snapdragon is the better choice.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] tiliarou:
Not for my usage. As soon as we get root, BL unlock and some sources (obviously this will come first for Exynos than SD), there will be custom kernel and overclock/overvolt to help us enjoy the full performance of Exynos variant.

So going for SD845 is not a better choice, it just depends on your usage (do you plan to unlock BL ? root ? magisk ? custom kernel ?)
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] force70:
The crapdragon will have a locked BL which automatically means it cannot be a better choice.

Theres only 2 reasons why anyone on xda would bother with it.

Your on verizon in which case exynos wont work or you really need carrier features like wifi calling or Volte. Other than that I have no idea why anyone here on xda would waste money on BL locked device when you have another option.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] RaduNastase:
Based on past experience (there are many youtubers demonstrating this) Snapdragon runs better in games. And not just a "little" better, "much" better as in

twice

as fast in many cases.

BL will hopefuly be unlocked in the near future. Root will come regardless.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] force70:
Thats always been true, games are better on the snapdragon yes. So then thats reason number 3 but if your that into gaming likely you have a killer PC to play on anyway

The BL will never get unlocked however and as long as you dont mind an 80% limit on charging your device yes there is root.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] RaduNastase:
I certainly don't spend a 1000 $ on a device to use it just for calls and emails. I mean, c'mon :D

While I have a PS4, lately my gaming machine has been mainly my phone, on the go, as i'm always on the move and not @ home so much.

Hope both versions are great for gaming this time. That exynos geekbench score is simply amazing.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] Deathman20:
Got to have gaming performance! :) Least being on the go having something on the go is always nice, even better when it really rocks with fantastic performance.

Find it interesting so far we've seen geekbench scores of both, and we have decent details on the SD GPU but not much on the exynos one.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] Vordx:
Dude , some of the emulators were slower on exynos because they weren't optimized for exynos. Not because of the GPU.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] RaduNastase:
Actually, the devs of the Dolphin emulator (Game Cube and Wii) confirmed that Exynos lacks some vital (for their development) instructions that Snapdragon has. There are already vids appearing online (youtuber Techutopia for example) that prove how Exynos in S9 is still sub par (to even Snapdragon 835) in games. Of course, there are factors involved, but the picture slowly becomes clear. And it's the same as last year.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] Vordx:
Exynos isn't easy to develop. Doesn't mean the exynos isn't capable of it.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] Azenix:
I this point performance doesn't matter too much. Only thing that takes advantage of performance is when you're processing video/images, in which case it's a couple seconds usually, Or gaming, Most mobile games are light, and the heavy ones would have a marginal difference in quality.

I'm new to rooting and stuff, but pretty sure people can undownclock it right?

Also quick question does nerfing exynos performance result in better battery life? And does exynos have same battery life as snapdragon when it isn't nerfed? In the anandtech article it was something about task scheduler and not down-clocking, so it may have the same battery life, in which case I guess you could bring it back to peak performance and then down-clock for better battery.

With locked boot-loaders I read something a while ago that it isn't qualcomms fault (Other phones with same thing are easier). I think Samsung does it but that doesn't make sense as they are the ones that make exynos. I personally am going to get the Exynos note 9.

Take everything I said with a grain of salt, I'm a noob at rooting (I haven't rooted a phone yet, was going to do my OP5 before it got stolen)
