[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] IllyaK:
There are many Roms out there and I am unsure which are the best. Could you guys recommend me two, one based off of features and the other based solely on battery life and performance? Also, do we get more battery life with a custom ROM or stock?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] stefan243546:
Well, in my opinion, after having flashed roms since owning an S2+, I can safely say that the battery life on a good custom rom can be better than the stock one (the "can" depends on how the user tweaks it"). The best available roms for the S8+ available now are, in my (repeat "my") honest opinion, Renovate Ice 9.1 and Alexis S9 port. For the last 2-3 weeks I had been using it, ans now I've switched to Alexis.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Papote13:
Every time I reboot my LG G4 I get the Android is starting. Optimizing app 1 of 1... and takes about 15 minutes to finish each time.

I've tried booting into recovery mode to wipe the partition cache, but the phone won't seem to boot into recovery mode by Holding the Power button and volume down buttons on boot. It ignores it.

Tried deleting the cached Data from the Internal Storage settings.

I've also tried using the adb reboot bootloader command but it just reboots as usual with the only difference is that it displays a message saying: "Select enable OEM in the settings". I enabled the OEM and went into fastboot, but get the following:

>fastboot erase cache

******** Did you mean to fastboot format this ext4 partition?

erasing 'cache'...

FAILED (remote: not supported in locked device)

I have never rooted this phone and really don't want to flash it.

My damn LG G4 has been doing the same thing for the last month. I even FDR'ed it a week ago or so; this initially seemed to fix the issue but now it is doing it again. So ****ing annoying.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bdnsocal:
In order to get to the system recovery mode, hold down the power and volume down button until the LG logo appears, then release the buttons for 1 second and then press and hold them down again. Continue holding them down until the recovery mode screen shows up. On my phone, I had to wait for it to cycle through the LG logo screen twice, but after the second time the LG logo screen appeared, it went to recovery mode. Hope this helps.

can't get into recovery. just goes to android is starting ...... for 15 mins. Just came back from LG "refurb". Last time I buy this junk. This phone has been back to them 3 times since I've owned it for the same bootloop issue. 2x in the last month.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metropical:
I'm the idiot this time. After configuring as Developer, I toggled Developer and Developer/OEM unlock and Developer/USB and got the RSA question.

That fixed the issue. Then I got TWRP loaded. https://xdaforums.com/g4/help/refurbed-bootlooping-t3776566

Problem resolved

I've had the same problem optimizing app 1 of 1 Android is starting. Happens every time I reboot or change the battery in my LG G4. Has been going on for a couple months then suddenly this morning it stopped. This was after about a half a dozen apps updated on the Play Store. I will add a screenshot but I suspect it was the YouMail app or possibly Google. I had tried uninstalling you mail but the problem persisted. I was told by an AT&T Advanced Tech that I needed my firmware flashed but AT&T can't do it and BestBuy can't do it and I have no idea where I can get it flashed. If it happens again I'm going to try flashing myself on my PC. Good luck.

La source de ton problème serai tune application que tu as récemment installé. Chez moi c'était une application météo qui était la cause.

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Themes, Apps, and Mods] entropism:
Agreed. I preordered one from T-Mobile on their "half off" promo, but then I had the opportunity to buy an AT&T 9+ for WAY less than half off. I'm hoping once Samsung ships it out & I get it sim unlocked, I can flash the unlocked or T-Mobile firmware on it.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Cozmo85:
Yea, i also got a couple coming from the AT&T deal. its also possible they implemented it like the s8 does now where it becomes a tmobile phone if you put a tmobile sim in it.

I don't want you to reupload the whole vendor, since I know what I am looking for... just the "etc" folder, it should be less than 30MB...

I hope it's not too much to ask...
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Themes, Apps, and Mods] mweinbach:
Should be good. I can help with CSC changing if someone wants to get some combo files. I would, but I already bought the System files here.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Themes, Apps, and Mods] oscarbg:
same for me I downloaded multiple times vendor file and they are bit identical.. you should consider uploading again as is clearly or bad file or should tell us what client to compress or decompress as 7z and Winrar fail!

Is this still in need?

I came across this thread while seeking Nokia Oreo firmware, but the excerpts complaining of insufficient/incomplete partition contents grabbed my attention.

I have the genuine

R16NW.G965USQU1ARB7

firmware I personally sourced and extracted last month that is 100% if you guys have been unable to do the same or have been unable to find someone offering the same.

The archive is in simple .zip format using the ZArchiver Android archiving application.

The firmware download and extraction was originally performed using Debian's latest operating system environment and then copied to my OnePlus 5.

I've read the S8 versions are pretty magnetic and doesn't need to stick an extra magnet on the back. Is this true for the S9/+?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] MJL99:
most likely. my s8 sticks without a metal plate on the phone. im pretty sure its the wireless charging coil in the phone that is magnetic and allows the car mount to work without a case or metal plate added. since the s9 will have wireless charging it should be the same way.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] dnmrt:
I have one of the cheap ball type ones, this type is definitely not strong enough and my S9 glides right off (with or without slim case). Maybe a more expensive one with better magnets would hold it.

Seconded on the ipitaka case - I just got it and Love it, before I had a SUPCASE ($15 off amazon) with the metal ring in between the phone and the case and it bulged the case out a bit.

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] boojay:
I'm trying to install an older version of Google Photos on my Pixel (don't care for versions 2.17+ as they remove the ability to upload while charging only). I'm not rooted, have not modified in anyway, and am running the latest stock Android Oreo 8.1. I uninstalled Google Photos as a system app using ADB and tried sideloading the apk appropriate for my phone (arm64, nodpi), but keep getting the error message: App Not Installed. I've allowed installing from unknown sources and have disabled Play Protect, but still no dice. I can sideload or install the latest version of Photos from the Play Store, however.

Any ideas?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] dimm0k:
pretty sure you didn't really uninstall Google Photos if it's a system app unless you have root. using adb to "uninstall" does not uninstall an app system wide, only for the specific user. that said, Google Photos is still there and installing a version older than what's on the system will give you that error
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] boojay:
Ah, gotcha. That makes perfect sense. Looks like I may have to resort to root after all. Thanks for the heads up.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Sgace:
While you temp root, maybe is interresting to search for bringing back upload on charge only. There is an xda article about that. It is done by changing something in a file.

After that you can just use the newest version, but with the option u want.

Here it is: https://www.xda-developers.com/google-photos-backup-while-charging-only/

Worked for me even after updates to the app.

[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] Steeleio:
**Let me start off by saying that I have not had a chance to verify but I do not have the error that NFC is not enabled anymore.**

Requirements -

1. Android Pay (Google Pay will not work on my watch although I read a post by someone who says it works on theirs)

2. Tasker installed on phone

3. Autowear Plugin to Tasker installed on phone and watch

4. A PC with adb installed

Step 1: Enable Developer Options on Watch

Step 2: Turn on ADB Debugging and Debug over WiFi

Step 3: Open command prompt or powershell in the folder where you have adb (hold shift and right click)

Step 4: In powershell, type adb connect 198.162.X.X:5555 (use the actual IP of your watch). Press Enter. The watch will prompt you to accept the connection. Select Always Allow.

Step 5: Type adb shell pm grant com.joaomgcd.autowear android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS. Press Enter. It may take a minute or two but if you don't receive an error, it worked.

Step 6: Open Tasker on your phone. Select Tasks. Hit the + sign in the bottom right. Select Plugin -> Autowear -> Secure Settings. When the new window opens, click the pencil next to Configuration. Set Command to Execute to &CONNECTED&. Click Custom Setting. Setting Type is Global, Name is <NFC>, Input type is Toggle, and Value is 1. Once all those are set, click the back arrow to get back to the AutoWear Secure Settings page. Click the checkmark at the top to save the settings.

Step 7: In powershell on the pc, type adb install com.google.android_apkmirror.com.apk. Press Enter. It should say Success once it finishes.

Step 8: On your phone, under the Task Edit screen (where you should be if you did not exit out from step 6) click the "Play" button on the bottom left. You should get a green dot next to the word configuration at the top.

Step 9: Open Android Pay on the watch. It will take you through the setup and tell you to finish on your phone. Once you finish adding a card, it should show up on the watch. "To pay with your watch, you need to turn on NFC" will show up and blink a couple of times then go away. It should show your card with "Hold to terminal.." above it.

This is something I threw together real quick to get the word out. Like I said in the beginning, I have not tried it at a terminal yet. As soon as I do, I will repost with results. Also in the near future, I will streamline the process, add a command to Tasker to keep NFC on always, and hopefully pay without opening the Android Pay app on the watch (Simply have the watch unlocked). I have attached the Android Pay apk below. If anyone tries this and uses the watch at a terminal, please post results.
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] developer209:
I had a feeling a developer would find a way. I wonder why google pay isn't working for you and why Android pay says it needs NFC when it is already enabled. Have you tested to see if it does indeed enable it?
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] Steeleio:
I am in no way a developer. Just trying some stuff out. I tried to Pay with the watch and it did not work. Hopefully someone with some knowledge and experience will see something here and guide us in the right direction to get this working.
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] developer209:
That could mean one of two things, either the watch's NFC is not actually on or Android pay is not transmitting the signal.
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] yochananmarqos:
This does not actually enable NFC. I tried paying with Google Pay and it did not detect anything. I don't think NFC can be enabled without root and adding some files that are missing.
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] adambomb_13:
Verizon promised to add pay and turn NFC on I say we hold them to it as owners of their watch discontinued or not this is as advertised.
