[Asus ZenFone 3 Ultra Questions & Answers] erwinsie:
Hi, i am new user of this phone and have few questions:

1. under setting device status, why my model number is listed as ASUS_A001 and not ZU680KL?

i think this is fine. its the correct model.

2. why my firmware name is start with NRD90M and not WW (WorldWide)? (mine is NRD90M.14.1010.1711.64-20171228 and no more update i can find)

this is also okay. i have latest firmware

3. under setting ZenMotion, i can see touch gesture, motion gesture and one hand mode but i cannot use them or see their features? (for example double tap to wake up, draw letter to open apps, etc)

solved it. need to tap touch gesture and then i see the options.

4. can i turn off the light on capacitive buttons on the left and right of home button? maybe after root and install xposed maybe?

i still want to know this

thank you.

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Elkkooz:
I like modifying my phone to get the best of it and custom roms is the thing that i do. I need you to tell me what rom do you use, why and is it stable.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Deemo13:
Short answer: The ROM I tried that worked the best was Resurrection Remix.

Long answer: Resurrection Remix is the only custom ROM I would be able to recommend, as it is the only ROM that worked with the phone. Lineage, for me, would not boot and I could not write the OS to the phone. I did not try any of the other ones, as those were the two most stable ones.

Unfortunately, I dont believe either one of them is the best choice for a daily driver to get the best out of the phone. The random reboot issue in all ROMs and the camera quality were a deal breaker for me. The lack of fast charging on the original brick was also disappointing, but I did not use it much anyways originally. The battery drain was a bit much while the ROM was fast.

Overall, I was happier with stock. Nova Launcher really brings out the best of both worlds in this phone.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Giuskiller:
As for now, i suggest you to stay stock with EMUI / Nova Launcher. There are a lot of good devs here but the kirin chipset is not one of the easiest to overcome and develope to. So for custom roms near "stock" experience (i mean with less bugs and good camera and battery life) we have to wait the "still not officially annunced but probably will come instead" Oreo update wich all of us believe will bring Treble to our H8 (also thaks the separate vendor partition that huawei/honor kindly uses in their devices) and only then we could hope in fast e better developement =)
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Elkkooz:
Is oreo confirmed?
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Giuskiller:
Well, officially from Honor Italy i don't know if there are some news about oreo, but from Germany, France and USA seems to have confirmed EMUI 8 AND Oreo 8.0

Hi guys, I am having a problem with my Galaxy S9 Plus. When I open a PDF in Night mode, while scrolling there is some deformation on the screen - in the video (link shared below), there is a grey frame which deforms and 'shrinks' while scrolling up and down in the PDF.

I've explained the issue properly in the video (jump to 0:27 in the video) whose link is given below. Kindly help me out in solving this issue as soon as possible and please check if this issue affects your device or not. Thanks.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hemingway60:
Hi, I'll keep this short and simple. The phone is locked, with S-ON and everything is stock, it's running Lollipop 5.0 with stock sense. I've had my M8 since Oct 2014, served me well until Dec 2017 when I switched to the HTC 10. At any rate, I've migrated the majority of my content to the new phone except for a few like telegram secret chat etc. Since I made the switch, I usually keep the M8 switched off and I used it like 4-5 times only since December. My last usage was around early March.

Anyway, come last week. I turned it on and it got stuck on the HTC logo (first time ever). So I booted into recovery which is when I noticed that the software status is now modified vs Official despite never tampering with it. I cleared the cache and attempted a reboot and it got stuck on the "HTC One" logo but that' about it. The only way out of this state is power button + vol up which reboots it again and on and on this goes. It just refuses to go past that stage. Occassionally "android is optimising apps" appears for like 2 sec before the htc One logo shows up again and remains there indefinitely.

Any idea on what I could do to make it startup? Preferably without factory resetting. Thank you :)

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hemingway60:
So just an update, it seems that right now, my device goes straight into fastboot regardless if I choose power down (powering it on again boots it back into fastboot) or restart it (again goes into fastboot).
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Probably unlikely to get the phone working and keep your data.

It appears your OS has become corrupted or damaged in some way (it happens). This would explain why it goes straight to bootloader instead of booting to OS. It may also explain why it says software "modified" when you haven't done any mods. Although I haven't seen that happen specifically (showing "modified" due to OS damage on an otherwise stock device); but it does seem logical it would say this (it is possibly reading the damage as some unknown "modification").

Your best bet is to restore factory image using RUU, following the instructions on the following post: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64926626&postcount=6

RUU will wipe all data on the phone. But in the current condition (as mentioned), I don't think you have much choice anyway.

The RUU should restore the OS, in addition to updating it to Marshmallow (the last version HTC released for this device).
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hemingway60:
Hey, appreciate the reply. That's disappointing, considering the phone was literally just sitting inside a desk. Anyway, I recalled seeing this post : https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64883695&postcount=6772 and noticed the OTA release code was 464427 vs 464360 on the RUU file. Is there any significance to this? Ironed bugs perhaps? If it's a better build, can I upgrade to that instead?

Thanks.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Both are build number 6.12.401.4.

So I doubt there is any actual difference. If there was any change, it would have a different build number (6.12.401.5 or whatever).

[General Questions and Answers] WitcherFan401:
First off, I really like the way this tablet is laid out, and it's size is great for the price.

No problems at all.....for the first 10 minutes after a factory reset.

Then, it just goes nuts. Apps shutting down for no reason, becoming unresponsive, pretty much a constant "has stopped working" error

popping up for every app.

Zero customer service from Insignia and for some reason has "cellular" capability.....I don't even know what that's about.

Now, what I want to do with it: Root it and install a custom rom. Bootloader is already unlocked.

I've tried all the direct programs (Kingoroot, Kingroot, One Click Root etc.) and they all fail.

I can not find a single comprehensive guide for this thing....I've had no problems rooting and flashing other tablets and phones, and this one is just driving me crazy.

Ideally, I would hook it up to ADB, put TWRP on it, flash the recovery, and then just install whatever ROM that would work...but....

I need to know where to get those for this tablet.

Does anybody have any information?

Let me know!

[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] thrope:
Hi,

End of January I bought a P10 SIM free from a major UK retailer.

It is stuck on March 1st 2017 updates, with no updates available.

I contacted Huawei support - they say my IMEI should be on B162. But I get no update OTA, and even through the HiSuite app it says I have latest.

They said I have to send the phone back for 2 weeks and they will factory reset and upgrade. This is unbelievable to me.

They told me if I use the firmware finder app I would void warrenty. But I thought if I do not root and install the authorised firmware version (B162) then they wouldn't know or it wouldn't be a problem.

I am a little confused by the number of different firmwares in the app, many with the same version number. How do I know which to use? What is the difference between OTA-MF and FullOTA-MF (from the sizes I guess full is full and other is incremental).

Will any of them get me back on the official upgrade path, or if I do this will it be manual updates forever from now on?

Do I have to root to install the firmware from firmware finder (I think not?)

I always thought people who focussed on stock android were silly, and I quite like EMUI but I am really regretting buying Huawei now.
[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] jcalderonv74:
depending on your CUST code you'll have to claim contact to your brand... I mean if your rom is "customized" by the carrier is not only Huawei but also the carrier who has to work on the update the other option depending on your model is to Debrand and change the firm to L29C432 and get the updates of the official but be careful about bricks or Sim detection problems...read all threads talking about debranding and go ahead if you feel confident to avoid a brick
[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] thrope:
Thanks. It is retail SIM free non-branded. Ie just bought from a store nothing to do with any carrier. I don't really understand the difference between L29 and L09. Mine shows L09 at the moment. Are they different hardware versions?
[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] M1chiel:
Hardware is (almost) the same. L29 allows to use both sims in the sim tray.
[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] thrope:
Just to update.

I used Firmware Finder to install B186A update. Worked perfect and have January 2018 security patch level.

The more recent B185 firmwares are rollback firmwares for downgrading from Oreo. Check the release notes carefully and make sure you chose an upgrade firmware (not a rollback firmware) that is authorized for your IMEI. (For me B186 was not approved but B186A was).

None of the Oreo firmwares were authorized for my device.
[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] gc1984:
Were you able to simply download the firmware from Firmware Finder and install directly? Were there any other steps you had to follow to do this correctly?

Reason i ask is that i am in same situation as you were. Purchased Sept 2017 via O2 in the UK, no updates at all (still on L90C432B113), contacted Huawei and O2 about Oreo with no possible updates and showing March 2017 Security Patch Level.

Getting sick of waiting and looking to move to Oreo as soon as possible.

Any tips would be helpful - thanks in advance.
[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] thrope:
Sorry for the delay getting back to you.

I was on B120 with a Serbia certified P10.

I installed B186A from Firmware Finder. (at the time I did it B185 was not approved). Its important to do the check with the IMEI number within the app to see if the firmware is signed for your device. I did the proxy method, where you set the proxy, pause download at 5%, unset proxy and it worked very smoothly.

I think the main thing is to make sure you chose an upgrade firmware and not a rollback firmware. They are not labelled clearly and the only difference is in the readmes so check carefully. There are a few more recent B185 firmwares which I found confusing, but they are for people who need to rollback from orea (and so reset the device).

A couple of days later I got Oreo B365 over the air (not through the app). Upgrade went very smooth.

Big improvement in battery life and overall performance better all round.

With Project Treble in place I hope updates will be quicker, and maybe even easy to install stock one day.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrfeh:
Hello folks.

I'm looking to replace my current cell phone. It needs to be an unlocked CDMA (Sprint) phone. Things that are important to me:

high quality screen

processing power

decent storage

Things that aren't that important to me:

camera

I have a price limit of $150. Given the above, I am looking at:

Moto E4

Galaxy S5 (refurbished)

Galaxy J3 Emerge

Moto G4 Play

All of them have 5" screens, but the S5 has the highest resolution (the rest are 1280x720). The S5 also has the highest clock rate.

My concern is that the S5 is using technology from 4 years ago, while the rest are more recent. Should that be a concern, or is the S5 the best option here?

Thanks!

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imas234:
Hello, had a galaxy s5 for around 3 years. My unit had a bit of a network issue, which sullied my experience, so be careful when buying a refurb!

Also, if processing power is important to you, you should note that it has constant slowdowns/stutters and, though not as often, crashes. It also heats up pretty quick and has mediocre battery life, draining pretty fast with any decent usage. The chipset really does not hold up compared to mid range chipsets now imo. Near the time I upgraded, it became nearly unusable for a bit whenever i turned the wifi on, though a factory reset and a sparser app library has alleviated the worst aspects of using the phone. It might be powerful specwise, but in irl use I find newer midrange chips outperform it in day to day use.

I recently upgraded to a redmi note 5 (china) and it was an upgrade in every way. From build to smoothness to battery life (and both cameras but you don't care about that). It also has the 6' display while retaining the same width as my s5, thanks to the 18:9 display. The aspect ratio is great in all apps that aren't games and in general UI use. It also has oreo out of the box and will get updates in the future, unlike the s5.

The redmi 5 plus(china) could also be a replacement that's cheaper, but I can't vouch for the screen on that one. The redmi note 5 has a bright lcd that looks really good. It's not amoled, but the transition hasn't bothered me at all, it's quite excellent! I've gotten compliments on the screen from many friends who have seen it in person as well.

So, yeah, look into the phone and see if your budget can be adjusted. Shoot for the 3/32 GB which is a steal imo. Oh, and it has a micro sd card slot, just like the s5, so storage won't be an issue. Another plus with these phones is that they actually have a fingerprint scanner that's not trash - another thing from the past that does not hold up.

I looked up the prices for these phones and they seem to be out of the 150$ budget, so, if the budget is rigid you might want to look into the redmi note 4, which can be found for 160$ and has all the same internals as the redmi 5 plus. I cannot vouch for how good the screen is, but it's 1080P IPS LCD. I would personally consider it a better phone to buy than the Galaxy S5 as well (working fingerprint scanner, larger screen, equivalent if not better chipset usability wise).

Anyway, I'm not really as knowledgable as most people in xda but I am a s5 owner, so I figured I'd chip in and try to help.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] startas:
While S5 is still a nice phone, it is not worth buying one at this time. The best option would be to get current/last year mid end phone. Look at the local market websites, maybe there are good deals. Xiaomi redmi 5 plus is nice phone for low price, also redmi note 4 is nice phone too, you will get better peformance than S5, or at very least the same, more ram, much better battery life due to bigger battery and better chipset, you will get android updates.

Hi ,

I personally think you should go for a newer phone like Honor 8. The main problem i would have with an S5 is the fact that it only has 16GB internal memory. Apart from that it is still a great phone.

With those 16 GB you will always struggle if you want to install many applications and keep Whatsapp data on your phone.
