[LG G5 Questions & Answers] NightOrchid:
Hey Folks

Im thinking about getting one these 2 phones. Ive owned an G5 before, but found it quite uninspiring when it was on android 7.0, but now only the SE is available in UK ..

I dont play games on phones.. apart from maybe Candy Crush or angry birds once a month or so.. and I use a phone for Music, Media, Camera and reading News..

Im in UK.. The G5 SE is £300 BNIB and comes with the LG Cam FREE... and the G6 is £430 and has No extras (IM in UK, so No extras as in Chi Charging, No DAC, only 32GB).

Is the UK G6 worth the Extra £130, and if not, is much noticable difference between the G5 SE SD 655/3GB or standard G5 SD 820 / 4GB and is G5 SE still getting updates?

Any Advice please... Thanks
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] ChristopherXI:
the g5 se probably going to be obsolete in 1 year and riddled with issues(weak cellular,wifi performance,GPS dropping,image retention) so go for the G6. LG screens are prone to image retention so my best advice is to buy from another brand except from LG
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] always6s:
I have the Sprint version of the g5 s plus. I have tried every way of flashing a rom that I can think of (all wipes rom then gapps magisk, magisk then gapps, rom and no gapps or magisk, etc.). I cannot manage to keep 4g after flashing. I have backed up my efs with twrp and tried restoring it. Nothing. I've used fastboot to flash nhlos erase modems1&2 flash fsg. I tried *#*#463whatever to turn it back on and nothing. I've checked all settings and tried all things I know of. Still nothing. The only way I can get/keep 4g is by using stock rooted which I hate. . Is this just a specific problem to my type of phone or is there something I'm missing? Is there a different firmware or modem I could use or something? Any thoughts or ideas would be great cause I'm stumped.
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] Phazmos:
You're not the only one. I'm just happy I was never on Sprint. Worked with someone who had same issues - no resolution but to keep stock. Maybe when moto releases Oreo it'll be different. Good luck!

[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] always6s:
I shall try and see
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] internetpilot:
Sorry, just saw this. I'm the Sprint user Phazmos mentioned. The problem is whatever source, base, proprietary blobs, etc., that the developers on here all seem to be using for the 3rd-party ROMs doesn't seem to know anything about Sprint. I had this problem a long time ago with a Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 2 phone, where even with the official CyanogenMod ROM, it had no working Sprint carrier settings in the ROM. From the Note 2 I moved on to a Nexus 6 (unlocked) and didn't have these issues, but the 3rd-party ROM support for the Nexus 6 was vastly superior to what is for the G5S Plus. I get all excited every time a new ROM is released (especially an "official" one), but then I know not to even try it after just reading the initial post and seeing that they used the exact same base that all the other devs used. I've posted the issue on several ROM threads now, but it's typically just ignored (I don't think they know how to solve it). I'm actually considering buying a 32GB version of this phone (maybe a refurbished one) and giving it to a better known dev team (like Dirty Unicorns, PureNexus, etc.) so they can put out a more stable, quality ROM for us, but I'm also just thinking about moving on to a different phone instead. I'm not getting off Sprint since they're the only carrier that has unlimited everything still. Sprint isn't the problem anyway -- it's who is developing most (all) of our ROMs. Even if Moto finally releases an Oreo update for this phone, it will most likely be 32-bit, and then we'll have to get our phones back to stock unrooted, which is not only a pain in the posterior, but doesn't always work.
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] Adi5:
No use this ****
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] always6s:
I feel ur pain brother. I can't drop Sprint for the same reasons and it seems like it's always something. I do appreciate the info on why they aren't working. It seems like there would be more devs on Sprint tho just cause of the unlimited data. Idk. I habe since moved onto using the moto z2 force. Same problems are occurring with it. I am running a DU rom that I'm downloading the update to now and hopefully it will have working 4g. I wasn't even really aware of the DU team or any others that weren't on xda till recently. I wish there was a good spot like xda that had all of them.

Last night, I disconnected my PC from my DSL connection, but was surprised that I can still browse the internet.

Then I found out my PC was connecting via my Phone (an HTC Hermes), which was sitting on its cradle.

I want to turn this off (so I wont get caught unawares and see a six-digit figure in my bill), but dunno where to look for or what this is even called ( tried searching some terms but no luck).

Help, anyone?

Hi, i've tried to install lineageos 15.1, it work great but now in TWRP the folder SD Card is empty, i dont know what to do.

Any suggestions ?
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] strongst:
Sounds like your internal storage is encrypted and you see cryptic named folders that are empty. You can check the "decrypt data"
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] ImEraaz:
Actualy i'm facing an other problem, I restore everything to stock, i unlock bootloader, flash twrp, i boot on twrp, just after without booting on the system. And immediately on the first boot i come back to the stock recovery.

It never happen before ..

On my first boot in twrp when i select storage, 'internal storage' is at 0Mb and in the log i got

Could not mount /data and unable to find crypto footer

Failed to mount /data (invalid argument)

Unable to mount storage ...
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] strongst:
After flashing twrp you need to flash magisk or a custom kernel so the twrp won't be restored to stock recovery. Seems like you missed some steps on the instructions to root your device.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] ImEraaz:
I feel so stupid, it was just the TWRP ...

The last on TWRP.me is not compatible, i took the last blu_spark and it work well
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] strongst:
Yeah, from the that site it won't work too...
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] ImEraaz:
Yes, thanks for the help.

BTW do you know how to install lineageos without being encrypted ?

People told me sideload but i don't know what's the difference
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] strongst:
Have a look at here for instructions https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-5/development/rom-lineageos-15-1-oreo-oneplus-5-t3727228

You need to format internal storage if it's encrypted.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] ImEraaz:
Yeah i try everything, i think i will wait for an new twrp that can decrypt it.

For now i will just remove the pin when i want to go into twrp
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] strongst:
You need to format the storage within twrp
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] ImEraaz:
Already done, nothing change :mad:
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] strongst:
If you format internal storage it's nothing shown for sure, that's the purpose of format. After that you can install lineageos along with gapps from USB otg for example.

For DECRYPT data you should not format unless you backed up all to your pc!
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] ImEraaz:
Ahah i know that if i format, my internal storage will be empty, i'm not that dumb ^^

But i tryied what you said and doesn't change ...

It's fine i don't go a lot in TWRP, i prefer magisk

Thanks dude
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] strongst:
What do you mean by "and doesn't change ..." exactly? Are you not able to install lineageos 15.1? I don't get you what's not working right now.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] ImEraaz:
It's working right now, just if i wan't to go in TWRP i need to disable the pins/password
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] strongst:
That's cause of encrypted internal storage imo. But why it's not working for you i don't know...
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] ImEraaz:
Yeap i didn't know too, i followed all the steps.

I started from oos 5.0.4 without any pins or password, i wiped -> factory reset and installed lineageos & GApps ...

At least i can see my sdcard folder right now ^^
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] hermeswol:
Guys, I do the first steps with TWRP, but I see my SD Card empty when I go to install. I don't know what to do.

I have Samsung Galaxy TAB E (SM-T561) and twrp_2.8.7.0_sm-t561

I Don't know what to do... I am stuck.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] hermeswol:
Where is this option? I can't find it...
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] hermeswol:
Ok, I found the solution.

Format and change file system of the SD card inside the twrp, after that mount it in PC, restore the files, and it will be ok.

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sexybeest:
Hello all, had a rooted fire tv 1 with the clockwork recovery. I downloaded the pre-rooted firmware 5.2.6.0 (bueller-5.6.2.0-root.zip) and upgraded the fire tv using the clockwork recovery. Everything worked fine and the fire tv booted up with the new firmware. I then went to device and restart fire tv. The fire tv turned off, but then wouldn't turn on. Now when I connect power to it, the white led doesn't show up, and I'm not able to connect to it through adb. Is there something in the latest firmware that bricks the fire tv? Any help is appreciated.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Axecaster:
Based on the mention of "clockwork recovery", sounds as if an upgrade was attempted from a FireOS 3 ROM. A different recovery is required for FireOS 5 based ROMs.

http://www.aftvnews.com/how-to-install-twrp-custom-recovery-on-a-rooted-fire-tv-1/

Is your bootloader fully unlocked? If not, SOL from what I understand. If unsure, time to level up.

Amazon FireTV devices tend to work a bit differently with ROMS and recoveries compared to typical android devices. It is advised to keep current on that site's ROM articles to help avoid future pitfalls.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sexybeest:
The firmware that was on the fire tv before I did the upgrade was 51.1.4.1. This was a pre-rooted firmware with the bootloader fully unlocked. When the fire tv booted up, I had R-boxes screen come up with the choices to go to recovery or go to bootloader. I chose recovery and through ADB I copied the 5.2.6.0 pre-rooted rom to the fire tv and then upgraded it through the clockwork recovery console. I didn't upgrade to the to the twrp tool.

So what I'm hearing is that the Fire Tv is bricked and there's no way to recover? What's weird is that once the new rom was installed, the fire tv rebooted and everything worked, it was only after I went to the fire tv settings menu, device and restart fire tv that it never came back.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Axecaster:
I recall reading multiple posts about different people with the same outcome who skipped both the last FireOS 3 version upgrade and the twrp flash. If the box no longer allows connection via adb, even a roundabout recovery is not possible, from what I understand.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sexybeest:
Thanks for the info, I should have done some reading to before the upgrade.

[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dylon0575:
I've been trying to restore my Note 5 (N920T) to stock 7.0 Firmware via Samfirm & Odin. However when I download the firmware with Samfirm, I get a .zip.enc4 file. The OP of Samfirm says to rename it as just .zip. However doing this WinRar spits out a bunch of errors, and it will not extract. I have no clue how I can get these .zip.enc4 files to something I can use in Odin, but the lack of clear instructions is actually laughable.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
SamFirm is very easy to use, really there are no instructions needed. Check the attached Screenshots from my Win 8.1 machine. You select Check CRC32 and obviously Decrypt automatically. When SamFirm is done downloading it will decrypt the file and when finished you'll get a zip. Inside the .zip there is your firmware.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QueenLizzy:
How to extract files please Enc4
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I don't know. Just check Binary Nature and pray to get the 4 file firmware.

[LG Stylo 2  Questions & Answers] hyelton:
Don’t you mean soft brick? You cannot fix a bricked device :p that’s the whole meaning of the word brick.

What did you do to get in the current situation? Have you tried flashing the stock firmware?
[LG Stylo 2  Questions & Answers] iakovl:
Yeah, you can call it Soft bricked.

a friend tried to root it as far as i can understand it... ending up in this mess, as i am the "Phone guy" around (we all know this problem) i ended up being the "save my phone" guy (again).

i'm used to deal with 9008 mode and flashing it, but the LGE mode is "new" to me.

after another short search i see LGFlashTool might work but can't find DLL for the K520K.
[LG Stylo 2  Questions & Answers] hyelton:
LGE In device manager is a driver and that’s what’s needed for flashing stock firmware. Do you have the phone in download mode? That’s what shows in device manager when phone is in download mode.

So you already have the TOT file? Dll files are not needed when you use LGUP

No download mode, black screen, LGE mode

Haven't find tot file for this model

EDIT: a dirty flash isn't enough... But after that, I removed apk in priv-apo, extracted the one from rom, putted in his folder, rebooted and now I have the app back :)

I think that the problem is that the mod create a new folder with another name for message app, so the phone doesn't know what to do... Hope that can be for help :)
