[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Unrelashade:
Hi all, I'd really like my backlit buttons to light up if I have unseen notifications. Am I correct that there is no open source solution for that yet? Can we get funding up for that? I'm happy to pay 5€ for that feature. Maybe others want to join so there is more incentive? Where should I post this that interested people will see this?

Thanks and regards

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Me_Zaid:
I own an Asus Zenfone Zoom that occasionally experiences a random high (internal/system) storage device write activity. It won't stop until I restart it. What's really frustrating is that I cannot track which app uses the memory chip, because the system monitor doesn't provide such information. There are no system monitoring apps that can make such information (the disk usage per and by app) available; I can only see the chip having a high write rate, but I cannot track which app does that.

The occurrence is apparently random - it happened one time after I used the camera and one time, recently, after I plugged the charger in. It stays somewhere between 50 and 100 KB/s and it causes a bit of lag - just some dropped frames; it doesn't affect the performance consistently but it's obviously abnormal and anyone would want it fixed.

I attached a screenshot taken from the app Simple System Monitor. I used more system monitoring apps and all of them provide the same results, so it's definitely not a matter of monitoring app malfunctioning,

Does anybody experience the same thing or it's just me? I'm looking forward to a solution. Thank you!

Operating system - Android 6

Received my S9+ today, everything seems Ok, but Slow motion video capture is too bad..

When I switch camera mode to "Slow Motion" it becomes quite dark and seems noisy, and video quality was not good.

I tried to capture the video in dim light, but quality should not be that bad.

are other also seeing similar with SLow Motion capture ?

Is there anyway to use slow motion on videos after they've been recorded?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Devhux:
Once you realize you're essentially throttling the shutter speed to 1/960th of a second, you'll understand why super slow motion won't work in lower light conditions without drastically affecting quality.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] h3ck:
You have to enable old school Slow Motion

If you use standard Slow motion mode (believe it's the 240fps not the 960fps Super Slow Motion), you can change where the slow motion happens.

Open Camera > Settings (Cog/Gear Icon) > Edit Camera Modes > Rear Camera > Select Slow Motion (& Sports if you want)

Now you will have the regular Slow Motion available and can select wherever you want the slow motion to start. Note: this will speed it up to 240FPS vs 960FPS but it's more close to what you see on iPhones and other slow motion modes where you can add the effect for dramatic purposes.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] Sam Sung:
Given that there is no root as of yet for the Verizon Tab S3 (T827) (according to this thread), I'll be wanting to secure this device while I wait for a root to become available.

Can anyone recommend effective non-root security apps? I've always used rooted apps for this purpose.

I've heard a few no root firewall names...NetGuard, NoRoot, LostNet.

So, recommendations for firewalls and any other well regarded no root app to help secure this device?

Any help much appreciated!

[Huawei Watch 2] mc_wardy:
So I have a HW2 Sport with 4G, a bit annoyed that EE don't offer a SIM for the watch with the same number as my phone but neither do any of the other networks in the UK. I have most of my workarounds working, WhatsApp works over the cellular and I use Pulse for the SMS. So I can now pretty much go for a run and have normal coms if needed.

What I am missing is the ability to hide the the number of my watch sim, I don't want anyone to see it.

The watch seems to have "Displayed Phone Number" option, although doesn't seem to do anything.

But also there doesn't seem to be any "Caller ID" type options you'd find in a mobile phone.

Any suggestions?

Did anyone buy a D-Brand Grip case and if you received it already what are your opinions?
[Google Pixel 2 Accessories] Ren Hayashi:
Pro's:

- Very very GRIP-py

- Comes with a matte black Dbrand skin (standard) to protect the back from scratches

- About 20 grams, so pretty lightweight

- Easy to put onto and take out of the phone

- Dust doesn't collect as easily on the USB c port hole unlike other cases I've had (official Live and fabric case)

Con's

- The extra grip makes it annoying to pull the phone out of the pocket, with it usually popping inside out as you take the phone out

- Makes the overall dimensions too big.. it's roughly the same as a 2016 Pixel XL in a Clear Spigen Case.

- Can't plug in my USB (with USB c) to the phone without having to use a dongle because it won't fit anymore

- I think it's starting to wear off quicker than I would like.. hard to describe but a very tiny part of the grippy rubber texture at the front near where the USB c port is located seems to have "ripped" out of the frame

- Not entirely sure with how well it protects the phone in case of drops .. I've dropped it once from around 4 feet and my amFilm tempered glass chipped by the power button; some have had their phone displays crack (non Pixel 2 smartphones) even with the Grip on.

I don't feel that it's worth the price, and probably wouldn't get it again until they fix the kinks. But it definitely is the most grippy case I've ever had. I'm still using it BECAUSE of the grip (and the weight). Let me know if you have any questions.

I have a Cingular 8525 running WM5 that is stuck in bootloader screen. I have tried to soft and hard reset ... just boots back to the same screen, I can't turn it off once in the screen and when i sync via usb to the pc i get the message that the "usb device that is connected is malfunctioning" I have not done any upgrading at all and the phone worked perfectly right up till the time i powered it down and restarted into the bootloader screen.

Please can someone out there help me with this issue?

Thanks .... But

Thanks for the reply ... but i have no idea how to do what you tell me, I am new to all this phone "stuff" as a matter of fact this is the first time that i am ever using one of these forums. I have read till i am cross eyed but dont actually understand what you are talking about ... now don't let that scare you away as i am willing to learn and i am not braindead ... you all had to start sometime in this, not so. I get that i need to try and reflash my rom...

so is there some type of rom update software that i need? ... what is a hard SPL?? ... and who is Schaps?? .. sorry guys to do this to you but i would like to get into this game and i need some ( well maybe a lot ) of pointers.

Thanks for your time.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ultramag69:
1. Search for "mr vanxs guide" so you have an idea on what you're doing.

2. OK, as Asfarizal said "Go to Bootloader mode: Hold side OK and POWER buttons together and reset with stylus". If you cant work out what the buttons are, go to the manual. it will tell you.

3. type in "hard SPL" in search on the forum & download the .zip or .rar file. this should have 2 files inside when opened,

a). RUUWrapper.exe and

b). RUU_signed.nbh

sync Hermes and double click .exe file. follow prompts.

4. find a rom that you want (would suggest TNT SE as a fairly good rom for noobs... good and stable, no problems...) Again download, then (and this is personel preference) format an sd card fat 32 and copy RUU_signed.nbh into root directory. Rename it Hermimg.nbh. Put into Phone and put into bootloader(make sure the battery is more than 50%) follow prompts. This should get you out of trouble. You can also sync your Phone and double click on the RUUWrapper.exe HOWEVER, if you should reset your computer, pull out the usb cable or have anything else happen to the computer that interrupts the flashm, you could end up with a worse brick than you have now. try to read up on flashing (search for "mr vanxs guide") and this should help you a lot if you have other questions. Good luck and happy flashing......:)

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ach2:
Looks like you've got a lot of reading to do, and a problem to sort out. Firstly a couple of answers...

Schaps is a Rom Cooking guru (makes custom versions of WM5, WM6 etc). When you get your phone sorted out I'd recommend trying one of his roms.

Hard SPL. The SPL is part of the bootloader which effectively dictates how a rom is flashed and what roms can be flashed. HardSPL is a custom version of this which allows you to flash any rom from any carrier. It also protects against a bad flash in many cases. It is recommended before you try flashing any new roms or radio roms. Use Hard-SPL-V7 at the bottom of the first post here.

The Rom upgrading software is contained in any of the cooked or carrier supplied roms. It is normally a .zip file which cotains 2 files: xxxxxRUU.exe and RUU_signed.nbh. You run the .exe file from your PC when connected to your phone via USB. More details of how to do this are in MrVanx's guides. Also other resources here.

Now to try to sort your phone out...

What is displayed on your screen when in bootloader mode? It should be something like this:

HERM200

IPL-1.04

HERM200

SPL-2.10.Olipro (This is HardSPL V7)

If you don't have an Olipro SPL then you need to get HardSPL onto your phone. If you haven't done any upgrading and have had the phone from new then I guess you don't have hardSPL.

Now you need to fix your USB Malfunctioning problem. I can't help too much here except to suggest trying a different cable, different USB port or different PC. Also, if you are running Vista try an XP maxhine. When you connect to the PC does your phone show Serial or USB on the screen? If you can't get a USB connection, all is not lost - you can re-flash your rom using an SD card, method here.

There is a thread about un-bricking phones which may help.

There are various diagnostic tools (which can also screw your phone if used incorrectly). The favourite of these is MTTY but you need a USB connection to use this.

If your phone is in warranty I'd recommend getting your supplier to sort it out, but if not I'd try to re-flash an ORIGINAL supplier rom (Cingular I guess). You can get links to the official supplier roms here.

I think (might be wrong) that sometimes when stuck in bootloader you need to flash an official rom, not a cooked one to recover your phone - then you can run HardSPL and then flash cooked roms again.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Zulu137:
Cingular 8525 stuck in bootloader

Thanks for the reply ... lots of great input.

Now to answer some of your questions.

1) When I power up the phone (only pushing the power button ) it goes straight into the bootloader screen without pushing any other buttons, and it displays

HERM100

IPL-1.01

HERM100

SPL-1.06

Then at the bottom in the white bar it says "Serial"

The only way that i have found to power it down again is to remove the battery, there is no response from any single buttons after it is in bootloader

the soft reset and hard reset work but it just goes right back to the bootloader screen after.

2) The USB malfunction. This only started after the phone "crashed" and before that it worked great ... well i only used it to sync up to my work pc for the contacts and to get pictures onto my hard drive.

all the PC's that i use are running XP. I have tried my home PC and my Laptop

and the work PC and all of them have their own cables and they all say the same thing ... "the USB device is malfunctioning"

I am sure that when i get the phone going again the USB will start to function again.

3) Phone warranty ... I bought the phone off e-bay from a store in new york about 10 months ago as a "new unlocked cingular 8525" it was new and unlocked, but i have no idea how they unlocked it. I would assume that there would be no warranty now and in any case i live in Canada and would have to ship it down to the states to an AT&T repair center and that sounds like a nightmare to me with the customs and so on.

I will give you a little more background on the problem. the phone worked like a charm without any problems at all for the 10 months that i had it, then the morning of the crash the phones alarm did not go off in the morning and i was almost late for work ... i did not pay it any further attention untill at 3:26pm

that afternoon the alarm went off ??????? (it was set for 6:05am) so i checked the main clock time, it was right. I then checked the alarm time, it was right ??? So i figured that something must have just got confused, so i powered down the phone with the power button to just restart it and while it was powered down i removed the battery to take the oportunity to to clean all those fuzzies and dust that collect in the battery compartment out and put it all together and powered it up again (just by pushing the power button) and this wierd red, green, blue and white screen appeared and that is all that i have seen since ???

I hope that answers your questions and i will start going through the links that you sent and get to reading ... will there be a pop quiz ... lol

Thanks again for your time and i very much appreciate all the time that all of you have spent on me and my phone ..... I know that you all just feel bad for me because i now have to use a Motorolla V551 ... lol

[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] travistyse:
Same thing as the OP of this thread: https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/help/bootloop-to-twrp-ota-update-t3667456

Late last night I saw that there was an update available and, given that I've only rooted my phone, security updates are important, and it's a mere ~15 minutes download + install time tops I went for it.

I absolutely cannot seem to get the update to install via the OTA channel - it downloads just fine but when I attempt to install it it boots into TWRP and once there the only way to leave is via Bootloader > Start (System just reboots into TWRP) and upon reaching Android I'm told that the update was unsuccessful.

I now have two problems:

1. I don't like having notifications that I can't do anything about. Assuming that this OTA is going to nag me for eternity that's definitely going to become an annoyance - but I'd prefer the update vs blocking the notification (again, IF it nags)

2. Every time I restart my phone (or it crashes) I now have to deal with TWRP. It's not a major annoyance. It's at most 8 extra seconds added to my boot time and I don't restart my phone more than 3 times a week. But it IS butt-ache inducing.

Edit: Forgot to add that I came across this and downloaded it https://xdaforums.com/moto-e4/how-to/boost-mobile-ota-t3763851 My E4 is a 1766 and is also from Boost Mobile (Sprint) so I imagine they're the same update. Point is, can I install this with TWRP successfully or would that do nothing / make things worse?
[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] madbat99:
You cannot install it with twrp on a rooted device. You would have to modify the updater script in it for that. And remove a bunch of assert props. And hope your system isn't modified too much.

So no, you can't. You have to flash back to stock, (the version you're on now) then install it. Or just sit tight, there is someone working on a partition updater, and a twrp flashable rom with the update included.

Once you root and install twrp, ota updates ain't gonna happen. How do you not know this

If you need a solution for the recovery Loop issue you're going to have to give me a minute to find the link it can be fixed.

It's a problem if TWRP when you format data not wiping something properly

this should help a recovery loop. Only if your issue is, every reboot it goes right to twrp. Then you have to reboot bootloader and select start. Easy fix.
[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] travistyse:
Thank you! And, frankly, because I never stick to stock. I always flash Cyanogenmod or LineageOS pretty much first thing when I get a phone. This time there wasn't a build available that seemed stable enough (Late November) but I still needed Root. I'm used to getting updates from both LOS and CM OTA so I figured the only thing preventing official OTA updates from working was that the build was entirely different. My assumption in this case was that I was still running the stock ROM that came with the device AND they were offering an OTA via notification so the phone must be eligible to receive it. >-> My bad.
[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] madbat99:
The ota has a bunch of checks in it. If anything fails the checks, ota fails. When you root, there are system changes, boot.img changes, etc. All of which cause the ota to fail. Of course lineage and cm didn't have such strict checks in their update zips because they expect us to root and modify system. Manufacturers do not.
