Operating System in use:

Debian GNU/Linux 9.4 (stretch)

Linux 4.9.0-6-amd64

Telephone model to be used: ZTE Z5s mini NX406E

Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 400/410 1,21 GHz

Android 4.4.4 KitKat

I try to make a backup using the adb, using the command:

adb backup all or adb backup -all

example:

root@machine:/home/life/adb# adb backup -all

Now unlock your device and confirm the backup operation...

I go to the phone screen, I enter the password and the copy continues, Hard pains about 3 seconds this, I only create a file of barely weighs about 549 bytes, when I review the adb versions, performing the following steps:

root@machine:/home/life/adb# adb version

Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.36

Revision 1:7.0.0+r33-1

root@machine:/home/life/adb# adb shell

shell@NX406E:/ $ adb version

Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.31

shell@NX406E:/ $ exit

Question # 1: They are different versions, for that reason I can not make the backup?

Question # 2: I need to have in Debian the same version that has the phone to make the backup, is it the only way if I want to use the adb?

Question # 3: How can I locate and install version 1.0.31 of the adb in my debian?

Question # 4: Can I have different installed versions of the adb at the same time in my debian without having any kind of problems?

Note: I am learning to disarm ROM, to study them and start creating new ones. ;)

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoeducativa:
Question.

I forced myself to use Windows 7 to be able to have part of the answers I'm looking for, even though using Windows 7 I was able to make the copies, having the same version of the mobile in Windows 7, I am interested in knowing in what way using Debian I can do it. I know at least that if the versions are different there are limitations. But Windows is easy to have a folder with each version of adb, however in Linux is not so easy, at least for those who do not have much experience in this field.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

[LG G6 Questions and Answers] ratibars:
I'm really confused. Please help.

I have to buy a phone with a good camera. I don't like Samsungs. Pixel 2 is too expensive for me. And so on and on. I have narrowed down my choices to G6 and HTC U11.

I'm hesitant on U11 because it costs a lot more than G6 (don't want to buy used ones either). Going through all reviews it seems U11 has the better camera than G6. But with the Google Cam port on G6, photos seem to come out vastly improved. Does the Google Cam Port make the G6 camera to be on par or better than the U11 camera?
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Pondy:
This phone is garbage. Buy the U11, if you dont like it I'll swap my G6 for your U11 :P
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] boomboomer:
The Google cam port makes the camera much better, but it's still not brilliant. If the camera is the main draw then the G6 isn't for you, otherwise the G6 has some advantages over the U11; screen, headphone socket, metal body etc.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] ratibars:
Thanks pondy and boomboomer.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] GuestK0062:
Had U11 before, love G6 overall more, but camera was better on U11.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] NeoDJW:
Have both of them u11 is way better, from speed to camera. g6 is only more sexy :D
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] JoelZracer:
The G6 camera is so-so. But really all phone cameras are less than stellar. Smartphone marketing in general pushes the camera to sell the phone. You could spend $140 on a Nikon Coolpix that is only 3.8 x 2.3 x 0.8 inches in size and have much better image quality. The G6 is a fantastic phone with wireless charging, a headphone jack, good battery, less bloatware (unlocked) and you can root the unlocked usa version. I bought mine at bhphoto for $600 and then a day or two later bhphoto had a $200 off sale and honored the discount refunding me that money. Total cost was $400.
[General Questions and Answers] tdvolland:
I got this table yesterday, and everything else works fine (so far).

But the SD Card slot does not open.

All that is supposed to be needed is a needle to stick into the hole next to it, right? I assume the other hole is for reset?

Is there any other trick? All it does when I put in a needle.... is turn off the screen.

thanks

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] lifeless069:
So, first of all

I'll state everything that have happened so far.

First, I got a phone with a sm-g935fd model carrier locked (smart from ph). then i decided to have it unlocked after reading and following the thread "Honestly free Sim unlock". I followed the instructions specifically to flash the combination firmware G935FXXU2ARA1 and have it unlocked and it succeeded. then now that i already have it open lined, i decided to proceed and flash the latest stock firmware from my country specifically the 1/31/18 release G935FXXS2DRAB for PHilippines OPEN LINE.

First thing i did when i'm still in the combi firmware was to activate developer options and turn on usb debugging. i also had hoped to turn on OEM unlock but the option wasn't there. Still, i proceeded flashing it via Odin v3.13.1 but ended up failing right after cache.img showed up. after failing, i reflashed to the combination firm (i do this everytime i fail, sort of like my way to recover to a working firm). I tried to seek help and after listening to advices, i tried these: first, i tried flashing the same latest stock but this time using a pit file i extracted from that very stock firm. Still, it failed at cache.img. too. I then tried to flash the same latest stock firm but this time, i modified the csc by extracting its contents and recompressing them all except cache.img to a tar file using 7.zip. I then proceeded to flash this stock firmware while using the csc.tar file without cache.img in it. Still, it ended up failing but this time after hidden.img.

After this, i have thought to flash it the same way as the most recent flash(csc without cache.img) but this time using the pit file again from this latest stock but i ended up hesitating and deciding to research things first before proceeding. After skimming through forums, i've read frp lock issues but when i'm doing all the flashing i've stated above, in the download mode it says FRP LOCK: OFF. I then also tried to flash other firmwares specifically the first released 6.0.1 stock firm (smart carrier) and the latest stock firmware 7.0 1/31/18 (smart carrier).

The first one truly send chills down my spines since i ended up having a bootloader exception and i can't access download mode. but after researching a bit, i pressed and sometimes hold the home button in desperation and when the logo appeared i used the combo buttons for download mode then managed to reflash the combi firm. I then learned that i shouldve followed the warning of not flashing a lower numbered bootloader. then after that, i tried the latest stock firm from smart(the carrier i was locked first) Still, it ended up failing at cache.img. As of now, I feel like a bit hopeless since the only stock firmwares for my country that might work are the latest stock firmwares since they are the only ones having 2xxxx bootloader.

I just can't seem to flash an original firmware from this combination firm. Could anyone possibly offer me some advice?

[IMG="After my latest flash using latest stock from smart ph"]https://imgur.com/a/U8TJG[/IMG]
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] BeatsMe:
I had the same issue as you, with this exact combination binary. I couldn't get any other stock firmware and I got the same bootloader exception where I freaked out. No other combination binary seemed to work. So I decided to try the latest XSA Stock for Australia and it worked. So I recommend that you try that. But I still can't boot down or anything else. No other combination I have run into works. Hope this helps you out.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Dis] Gizmoe:
At this point, it would be in pretty bad taste if it was. They let every other carrier beat them to the punch all ready. But, there is no sign it's being tested on their own update tracking site. Still says in development. So either that site is pointless, or they think an April fool's joke is not going to send everyone into a rage. I'm betting it will be soon but not Sunday. The guy on Twitter wasn't being very definitive about it and just said start checking late Sunday and "maybe" it will be ready.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Dis] GeekLight:
The site is useless - I've noticed before that it isn't updated reliably, so don't trust it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Dis] Limeybastard:

I wonder who handles the updates. Like whos servers? Tmobile or Samsung? Because if on a Sunday night it will be Monday morning in south korea which will likely be Samsung.

Ps. If it hits here at 8pm EST. It will be 9am SK time and that's there business hour start time. Which will mean they Samsung handle it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Dis] dharvey4651:
Has anybody here with the Note 8 here in the USA actually received the update yet? Curious to see if this is really happening or if it's a bad joke considering all 3 of the other major US carriers have already updated their devices to oreo...

And yes I do realize that it's only 12:42pm eastern time so it's still early.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Dis] lildoggs:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Dis] dharvey4651:
Yes I know T-Mobile is the last to release the update. And I genuinely hope that this is not some elaborate April fools joke either...

Frankly I'm kind of irritated that those of us who bought T-Mobile's most expensive Samsung phone are the last to get the update. You'd think that considering the Note 8 is the premium top end most expensive Samsung phone, they'd try to tailor to the people who spent the most money...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Dis] lildoggs:
Totally agree with you man.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Dis] NIKKG:
This is probably gonna be my last Note and I started out with the original Note 1. If I stick with Android, it's gonna be the Pixel 3 or try out whatever new phone Apple got during Fall. This waiting half a year for an update is a straight up joke.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Dis] Limeybastard:
Not really, let's be honest. Samsung prefers consumers to buy their next "big thing" instead of supporting and having updates.

They'd sooner the consumer buy the latest Galaxy with latest OS than them setting a path for medicore upgrade via updates.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Dis] dharvey4651:
Whether that's the case or not, I know I personally spent about $900 on my phone and there's people who paid more than me.

You would think Samsung and the cell phone companies would be a little more enthusiastic about making sure the people who bought their top devices were happy so they continue to do so...

That said, if that update doesn't hit my phone in the next few days and this turns out to be an elaborate April fools joke, made bigger by all the major tech sites confirming it's legit, this will be the last Samsung phone I purchase.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Dis] Limeybastard:
You spent $900 for what Samsung regards as a 12 month life cycle. Well that's their aim.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Dis] vin_001:
It's 8:00 EST and still no OTA.... I'm disappointed with the "Uncarrier" for this sad April Fools joke that this is turning out to be... What a shame T-mobile

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Dis] GeekLight:
Don't forget, T-Mobile is actually headquartered on the west coast - it's not technically even evening yet, here (although I admit it will be soon!). Plus, when it does hit, it usually goes out in waves, not 100% at a time. Some of us may get it on April 1, but I'm betting a whole lot more will get it April 2 or 3.

Good luck to all of us for getting it in the first wave!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Dis] Gizmoe:
You may be on to something. It seems Tmobile is confused within [MENTION=4504155]askd[/MENTION]ES thread about it. He added it's not an April fool's joke to the heading. But [MENTION=259357]Tmobile[/MENTION] contradicted DES and then a user corrected them. An hour ago tmobile posted this

"We are hearing that it could start as early as tonight, Carlos! Be sure to be on the look out for the update! *BrookeK"

So it would seem Samsung is pushing it... Maybe. I bet a very select few get it tonight and the rest within days.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Dis] Limeybastard:
I only wiped the cache partition twice and updated all my apps via play store.

Isn't that notification an Oreo notification? Seems to think system UI tuner and Accubattery are draining battery.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Dis] Gizmoe:
I have seen it on N with a Foodservices app that was always misbehaving. I think you can whitelist accubattery via unmonitored apps and it should take care of the system ui one as well. Accubattery is probably always tapped into systemui making oreo think they are wake locked. I bet they just have not optimized it for Oreo yet since most people weren't on it until the last couple of weeks.
