Thank you for posting this info and links! I am now running the Indian 2.5ST rom on my Zuk z2. It looks like the Indian rom is not being updated anymore, so I would like to switch to the Chinese ROM.

What Chinese ROM version should I first flash to receive OTA updates to the newest 3.5.315 version? I am a noob in this stuff so any help would be appreciated :)

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cashasty:
Hi!

I am having an issue with my Note 4. The phone doesn't connect to any PC. It's not being discovered, and it is not an issue caused by cable or drivers. Probably phone hardware failure.

I am running Android 6.0.1 build with pretty old security patch, my phone is vulnerable to blueborne attacks and stuff like that. I would really love to install new ROM but I won't be able to do that without updating modem and bootloader to a newer version. Is there any way to do that without ODIN, without being able to connect phone to the PC?

I do have root and I do have TWRP.

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrew93753:
Nvm, you have Root and TWRP.

Just download a new ROM and flash it? :D
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cashasty:
Yeah, flashing a ROM is not a problem - but what about modem and bootloader? I can't flash them with TWRP
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wam7:
The short answer is no.

With the conventional tools and programs that we hobbyist have then you will need a Mac of Windows PC to update bootloader or modem.

I didn't know Samsung treat in such way the customers. I was htc user for years, and I hated Samsung till s8 and I couldn't take htc u11 so I got s8. HTC and the rest oems deliver big updates 3 months after comes out...And Samsung almost after a year. But I will know for the future. If after year this phone gets good development AOSP/TW I will stick with it. Look at note, they pay 2k for phone and Samsung treat them like sh!ts. So disappointed.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Gregzi:

S8+ looked soooooo promising so I bought it - it was my Sammy device after S3 again....lol...

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] madvinegar:
People who decide to spend a lot of their hard worked money to buy top end phones (flagships), usually are of the following categories:

1. They need it for their work (for example Note series) in which case they really care about security updates (at least).

2. They are passionate about phones and really care about looks, ui, apps etc. in which case they really care about android updates, ui updates etc.

I would say that the biggest percentage falls in category No2.

A firmware update breaths new life into the phone. It makes you see the device as a new device, try to explore again all the features from the beginning, pleases your eyes and generally makes your interaction with the phone a brand new experience.

People falling into category No2, really really really want and care about updates. Especially if they have spent a lot of money to buy a flagship, they demand to be treated as premium members. So they expect to receive quickly and first new updates.

When you see other flagships, maybe half the price of your flagship or flagships of smaller companies than Samsung to get all the new updates fast, and you are still 2 or 3 updates behind, then this makes you very disappointed and you may lose your faith to Samsung.

From what I understand, this has driven a lot of people who were loyal fans and followers of Samsung, away from samsung phones.

Hope this will change with project treble, because when you lose a loyal client, it is very hard to get him back.

i think we shouldn't jump on conclusions like that yet. Mostly because samsung always respects the update schedule,they always support their devices 2 years after launch which also means among the security patches etc ,two big updates. in this case it is oreo and p. so that means we should basically have the P update

[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] zimbico:
I only just upgraded to Oreo a few weeks ago - mostly delayed by my CID / dual SIM model causing me to not receiving the OTA for ages. I just noticed today that TWRP no longer works. All that happens is the screen turns black, still backlit, and oddly enough, fastboot devices still lists it.

I use fastboot boot <twrp.img> so I can keep the stock recovery installed. I'm hesitant to try flashing TWRP as I don't have a backup of the current recovery, and can't see how to make one. I suppose to restore it, I could track down a link for the OTA I applied to extract it from, but I doubt flashing TWRP would help anyway.

I've tried all the versions available from the TWRP website:

twrp-3.1.1-1-ocn.img
twrp-3.2.1-0-ocn.img
twrp-3.2.1-1-ocn.img
twrp-3.2.1-2-ocn.img

Here's my output of

fastboot getvar all

:

(bootloader) cid: HTC__060
all:

Could it be to do with some partition structure change that could be part of my model's Oreo update that TWRP has yet to reflect? I don't know what else could cause this.

Does TWRP place a log file somewhere?

Is it even getting into the TWRP boot process at all? The fact it's still listed in fastboot devices is intriguing.

I've been rooting for several years, and as a developer and avid Arch Linux user, I tend to be able to sort out most issues myself, and so only have the need to post very rarely. I've tried hard to find information on this issue, but I'm completely stumped and would very much appreciate some help. Cheers!

Edit: I thought I should probably try flashing it just in case - lo and behold, it worked! Though I'm still quite curious as to why booting directly could have stopped working.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] shivadow:
Twrp versions are now related to the android versions, at least for htc. I think I remember reading something to do with the encryption and how twrp interacts with the os..

Newest os = newest twrp. Once you have the device running don't change/upgrade twrp. It is meant to be safe but i dont trust it.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] zimbico:
I do recall seeing something to do with encryption, actually. Surely they're aiming for backwards compatibility though. And I'd like to think it'd show a message if it's not working.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] z.alimohamed:
Hi All,

Ever since I got the Oreo update on my S8 a couple of days back, I am not able to set custom text tones for individual contacts.

This was available, and extremely useful, on Android 7. Does anyone know how to enable this? I'm on Stock ROM. No Root, nothing customised.

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] TraumaTiger:
I was on the beta and rely on this a lot as I have dual sim for work and home so it's a must for me to have different tones per contact, however, during the beta Samsung removed it and I raised it as an issue. Every beta update that came out I kept raising it as an issue, at one point I got a bit irate and they actually replied saying the beta wasn't over yet and new features are always being added. Anyway, final Beta came out and still no custom tones per contact, so I have ended up installing the google messenger app that does allow you to do this (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.messaging). However, the settings are configured within the messenger app and not stored against the contact like they were previously.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] PairofDeezNutz:
I upgraded from the Note 8 to GS9+ and lost ability to assign contact specific text notification sounds. This is a downgrade since many people found this feature useful prior to Oreo. I too installed Android Messages just to restore this feature. This needs to be fixed to work with the phone's default messaging app instead of forcing people to download additional apps to get this feature. Big mistake on Oreo developers part.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Lady TN:
Samsung (or Google...or whomever), I just want you to know how unhappy I am with this so called Oreo update! Really?? You take away the text tone notifications?? That really sucks! Now I am being forced to download a 3rd party app (which you guys won't support) in order to get that feature back?!?!?! This is a BIG disappointment. I feel that I have been let down! You guys could have kept all the features like GIF and all of the other things you added. They are not half as important to me as the individual text tones were! SMH! I may have to switch over to iPhone. Yes! That's how upset I am about this!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Makaylamcshan:
I switched from iPhone to android for all the bonuses. This feature is one I have always used and now it's been taken away??? Back to iPhone I go.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] MoistTacoFart:
GARBAGE!!

This is absolute CRAP!!! I got the update late last night on my GS8+ and realized immediately this morning with my 1st text that something had changed. Started digging and discovered the feature was gone...IRATE doesn't even begin to describe how I feel about this!! The feature NEEDS to be readded!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Stephens79:
So glad I found these posts! I have digged through my phone for a week now after the update trying to find how to change the tones for my important contacts! So annoyed I cant change this! Why would they do that!!! I don't care about updated emojis, I have had the same text tone for my finance for 2 years and now it's a default tone! So now I have to look at my phone every time, instead of knowing exactly who is messaging me !! Annoyed
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] daveid:
I fail to understand the horror you are all expressing. Now is the perfect time for you to check out Textra. Forget the stock messaging app, you can not only customize your tones, but also color of notification icons, colors in chats, background images, type of notifications {heads up, floating, normal, etc.}. The advantages are numerous. Besides, isn't this the exact reason most of us use Android? If you don't like a stock app, there are enough options to replace it, you find something better.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Macklin_sob138:
I downloaded Textra and do not see an option that fixes the problem. I find this a big step back as I used the feature to make it easy to identify if my wife or kids were texting me.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] daveid:
Open Textra, open a conversation, press button in upper right, select "customize this conversation", now select "notifications".
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Macklin_sob138:
Thanks got it. Liking the ability to customize a lot wth this. It is a shame it won't let you pick a custom background but it is making it easy to tell at a glance who I am chatting with.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] daveid:
You can set custom bubble colors, if that helps. I never even used the stock messaging app. I like using custom notification colors with custom led colors and sounds, so I know even when my phone is muted and the screen off.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Anarchist198321:
Another option is to download a soundboard, I have an samsung s8 and I updated to oreo and downloaded a metal gear soundboard and it works great!

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] RiseT:
Hello,

My Thor device seems to be bricked after trying to enable encryption in Lineage OS (this happened a couple of months ago).

The device used to have an unlocked bootloader with TWRP 3.1.1-1, Lineage OS 14.1 20170710 and Open GApps installed and was running without any problems (thanks to all the people here who have made this possible btw!) until enabling encryption. The encryption process was running for an eternity (more than one day), so I switched the device off.

Since then, I only get a grey "kindle fire" logo. No booting of Lineage or TWRP anymore :(. It's possible to start in fastboot mode via pressing the on/off switch and the volume button simultaneously, though.

I don't have any experience with bricked devices. Any suggestions what to do? And are there known issues with encryption on this device?

Many thanks in advance for your help!
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
Have you tried booting a TWRP image from fastboot? If that works recovery will be a lot easier.

fastboot devices

--> if no response to this command you'll need to update host drivers

fastboot boot <twrp-image-name>

--> you can download a suitable TWRP image from here
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] RiseT:
Excellent! MANY MANY THANKS! You've made my day! Worked like a charm (i. e. worked like a charm after my usual trial & error for hours to make Windows accept a Kindle Fire driver for fastboot - had to force one it warned me about on it to make it finally work).

A couple more question if I may:

When and why does one need a "Fastboot cable" (always been confused about this)?

Do you happen to know if device encryption normally works with this device?

Does switching debugging off in Lineage prevent unbricking via fastboot like this (wouldn't think so but want to make sure)?

Thanks again!
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
Quick answers as I'm on the move (sorry for brevity) ...

- Moto drivers almost always work with HDX devices; install this package (don't have to launch it) which includes drivers; no warnings either :)

- Fastboot cables are largely ineffective on Amazon devices and rarely needed (special/unique cases beyond scope of this post)

- Encryption is NOT supported with custom ROMs on this device; dipping your head in boiling oil is a more enjoyable experience

- Prior debug setting in Lineage should have little/no impact on unbricking success

If you are unable to reload a ROM (Lineage in particular) you may have to do some further work on the data partition to remove encryption remnants. Post back if this is the case; I'll try to scare up the related material.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] RiseT:
Thanks for your replies!

Thanks, my Thor is already up & running with the latest LineageOS and Open GApps. No problems so far. Prior to installing, In order to play it safe, I've made sure to wipe/format all partitions (including the data partition) from TWRP. Had a feeling that this would possibly be a good thing to do after that (partially?) failed encryption experience...
