[Nokia 6.1 (2018) Questions & Answers] ((RayDar)):
Adoptable Storage now available, but corrupts files!

The Pie update is finally here (Build 00WW_3_260_SP01) and it is now possible to format an SD Card as "Phone Storage" (aka "Adoptable Storage") but doing so WILL CORRUPT YOUR FILES!

Here is how to do it:

Format the SD Card using something the device won't recognize (NTFS, EXT4, etc.)

Turn off phone

Insert SD Card

Turn on phone

Tap the notification about Unsupported SD Card which brings up the storage options with a Format this SD Card? dialog popped-up on top of it

Tap CANCEL on the Format this SD Card? dialog to see additional options

Tap Phone storage in the Use for extra phone storage part of the screen

You will see another Format this SD Card? dialog that looks identical to the previous one

This time, tap FORMAT SD CARD

You may get a warning about the SD Card being too slow. Ignore that and proceed.

After the format completes, you may think you have working adopted storage, but you don't. Files written to /sdcard (which now points to the removable SD Card) will randomly be corrupted. One way to see the corruption is to tap the Move content button after the format above completes. If you had a lot of data on your internal SD Card (such as hundreds of pictures), much of it will now be corrupted. You were warned.

Another way to see the corruption is to use the adb utility to push files to /sdcard on the device. When you pull the files back, many will be corrupted. It's quick and easy to see the corruption using images (I push about 570 of them) and then launch Google Photos.

Which is worse, not supporting adoptable storage or supporting it and corrupting our files?
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] binduzero:
Hi i have flashed LineageOS 14.1 (Nightly) official rom for Samsung Galaxy S2 from the official website.

All the things went fine and i used kernel DorimanX KK 4.4.4 which is unofficial for my device.

The problem is that it seems to be charging a lot slower than CM13 (unofficial), and also draining battery. (like 1% for 1min).

Then i checked battery usage stats (i can't attach screenshots since i'm new) and saw that Cell Standby is using 50% of my battery and Airplane Mod was turned ON, and also i'm not using any SIM card on that device too.

I tried rebooting, turning airplane mode off and on.

Then I dialed " *#*#4636#*#* " and turned Cell Radio Power off (I saw it somewhere), checked again still uses 50%. Then i headed backed to check Cell Radio and i saw that it had turned back on itself and I don't know why and that's why i'm asking you guys.

Hope i'll find an answer here and this is my first thread on here and sorry for mistakes and bad english. :)

mr Mahshad

I tried something that will maybe work. I removed the first line of the original 8.1.0 script. I removed the IF statements that verifies if the device is compatible. Maybe this tip could help in some cases? But i'm also experimenting some scripts that may actually work, I'll give my feedback if ever it works bruh, cheers! :fingers-crossed:

---------- Post added at 10:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:02 AM ----------

Ohh and if you've notice on the new update file there are no certificates on the META-INF folder aso you might wanna check that out
[Asus ZenFone 4 Max Guides, News, & Discussion] igerup:
For this to work we need to find out how to unlock the bootloader. I have tested with "fastboot flashing unlock" and "fastboot oem unlock" and the only result is a reboot followed by factory reset that can't be stopped. Bootloader remains locked afterwards. Any custom recovery or rooting is impossible with 8.1.0 on this phone.
[Asus ZenFone 4 Max Guides, News, & Discussion] shugapapa:
Dudem I just freakin flashed it. IT WORKED! but there's a VERY BIG DOWN SIDE :(

It made me enter a password I never placed. so basically it's locked. so what I did was to flash userdata via fastboot which was a little bit difficult. but dude It worked! although it sucked that my data was resetted back to original. but it worked! :)

PM me if you want the new script and the fastboot flasher. BTW I'm a Filipino ;)
[Asus ZenFone 4 Max Guides, News, & Discussion] igerup:
I allready have 8.1.0 installed and working. I had to edit the scriptfile to be able to install on a rooted firmware 237. Oreo refused to recognise my phone as an ASUS_X00ID . I'm mostly interested in this updater script so I can flash future updates if (and that's a very big if) a functioning bootloader unlock and root method is discovered.
[Asus ZenFone 4 Max Guides, News, & Discussion] shugapapa:
actually I think I have made a batch file that could maybe answer your "unlocked bootloader" :cool:
[Asus ZenFone 4 Max Guides, News, & Discussion] igerup:
Interesting. I'm willing to test it.
[Asus ZenFone 4 Max Guides, News, & Discussion] shugapapa:
welp it would be a little bit of a work. so here's the main stuff that'll happen.

1) Backup your android

2) Put device into fastboot state

3) Flash my "modified" flasher

4) Once flashed. You'll automatically have a TWRP installed.

5) Flash the android 8.1.0 update

6) Setup phone (Temporarily)

7) Install UNLOCK APK which re-unlock's bootloader

8) Reflash TWRP (Because due to android 8.1.0 Update the Recovery is missing)

9) Setup once more

10) Re-Backup and your done!

*To prevent stages 7-10, I am currently fixing the Batch file for the flashing, but as of now. This works* :victory:

Hi guys! Great news I already updated my unlocked bootloader through deleting this code

(!less_than_int(1552987684, getprop("ro.build.date.utc"))) || abort("E3003: Can't install this package (Tue Mar 19 17:28:04 CST 2019) over newer build (" + getprop("ro.build.date") + ").");

getprop("ro.product.device") == "ASUS_X00ID" || abort("E3004: This package is for "ASUS_X00ID" devices; this is a "" + getprop("ro.product.device") + "".");

is_substring("15.",getprop("ro.build.asus.version")) || (is_substring("14.", getprop("ro.build.asus.version")) && (is_substring(".235", getprop("ro.build.asus.version")) || is_substring(".232", getprop("ro.build.asus.version")) || is_substring(".237", getprop("ro.build.asus.version")) || is_substring(".160", getprop("ro.build.asus.version"))))|| abort("Can't install this package, your version("+getprop("ro.build.asus.version")+") less than 14.0.0.352.");

and replacing the X00ID to X00I

Note:

Edit the update-script within the zipped file, don't extract it. then hit saved after editing, then it will rezipped itself automatically. I used 7-ZIP as an archiver.

I did not lose any data or apps or media files here are the steps in flashing :

1. Copy the modified update to your SDCARD ( My SD CARD is the only option, internal memory is encrypt for me)

2. Boot to recovery ( TWRP)

3. Select WIPE

4. ADVANCED WIPE

5. Select only WIPE-DALVIK and CACHE

6. WIPE

7. Go Back to menu, then select install

8. Locate the Modified 8.1 update, then wait until it updates it.

9. Before booting to system repeat step 5 & 6.

10. Boot to system

11. Wait ( it took around 10 mins more or less for me, I didn't notice. I was watching Tokyo Ghoul season 3, but patience is a

virtue)

12. When booted enter password

13. let the update finish

ENJOY!

CTTO of the topic... you helped me a lot. Thank you very much sir!
[Asus ZenFone 4 Max Guides, News, & Discussion] Brubo:
I confirm!!

Removing the first lines as Raikusu wrote, allowed me to update from WW-15.2016.1809.412 directly to WW-15.2016.1905.514 without any data loss!!

Many thanks Raikusu!!

Hope it will work with Pie editions also...

[LG K8 Questions & Answers] elrecharlie:
Hi there,

I have the LG K8 2017 dual SIM and after replacing the screen and pressing start I get the "LG powered by Android" message and there it remains forever. Could it be because both cameras are missing? They told me to try with a hard reset but when rebooting after at the end of this process, same outcome (frozen at "LG powered by Android"). To top it all off I don't have access to recovery mode anymore...........

I hope I didn't ruin my new phone and didn't waste the money of the new screen either.......

Thanks in advance,

Carlos.
[Huawei P20 Questions & Answers] warface:
Hi guys and gals.

I'm thinking of trading my Pixel 2 for the P20, but would like clarification from p20 owners as to whether the p20 has an official IP waterproof rating. Some sites say yes it has, some say it isn't waterproof, some dont even mention it.

So, IS it officially waterproof or not?
[Huawei P20 Questions & Answers] GawDroid:
P20 isn't.

P20 Pro, on the other hand, has got an IP67 rating.
[Huawei P20 Questions & Answers] Ephixi4:
P20 has an official IP rating. It's not waterproof though. It has the standard protection so use in light rain shouldn't damage the phone but that's it.

Google IP ratings so you can have a better grasp of what they mean. :)
[Huawei P20 Questions & Answers] GawDroid:
Exactly, P20 is IP53 as compared to IP67 on P20 Pro.

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] 11hawkinst:
First off, just so you know, I'm fairly new to the forums, but I'm also not technologically challenged as some people think that all new people are. Anyway, I just finished installing a WM6 ROM and everything is working great and what not. Now, when I try to put in my 2gb SD card, it won't read it. My computer can read it so I know that it's not the card. I used this ROM to upgrade my i-mate JAMin (HTC Prophet).

I've searched high and low throughout the forums and the HTC Prophet wiki page. Is there really no solution or I'm a looking to hard and the answer is right in front of me? If anybody had this problem and got around it, please tell me how you did it!
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] domisj:
I have the same problem. :(
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] levenum:
Do you see a folder "Storage Card" but can access it, or you get nothing at all?

If you soft reset the device with the card in it will it work?

This could be the result of sddeamon.lnk missing from \windows\startup

It is a shortcut to sddeamon.exe in \windows which is what monitors SD insertion and removal.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] dusan7:
Is there any solution out,?

The S8+. Of all the phones I've owned that was the first one I've ever broken the screen. So yes, the upgrade to the S9+ was worth it :)

Short of that though... I don't know. While the upgrades from the S8 were noticeable, if you have to pay full retail for it I don't think it would be worth it. The S8 is a great phone.

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] KryptonKal-El:
Yep that's because there was no phone that was impressive or worth the upgrade throughout the years. Nexus 6 IMO is still the best community developer friendly device today (aside from oneplus 5t) it's almost 4 years old and the xda nexus 6 forums are still strong today and filled with many ROMs compared to other phones. The front facing speakers (using Dolby & viper4android) still beats the quality of the S9+ (with Dolby enabled and configured to my liking). But of course I love the S9+ performance which is why I'm stuck to it like glue lol.

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Bxrider117:
I came from the Pixel XL to the S9 plus. The past 2 year's I've jumped from Galaxy to Pixel. Each time I've told myself that the software updates we're the reason even though the Galaxy devices we're superior to the Pixel devices IMO.

This device checks of a lot of boxes but mostly it pairs seamlessly with my gear S3 watch. With the good lock app and hiding my navigation bar I get all the swipe controls that Android pie will offer. My battery life has been amazing in this phone. So if the Pixel 3 is not a break through device then I make break with my routine and just wait for the Galaxy S10.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] kempshott:
OK please be gentle. I've come from:

HTC Desire

HTC One X

So obviously my next phone was going to be an HTC U12 Plus.

But ... I've just bought a Galaxy 9 Plus and am setting it up now. Sorry HTC , sorry LeeDroid.

I think I'll try running unrooted on stock ROM for a while until I'm confident I won't need a warranty claim.

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] kempshott:
Yes - love the gorgeous screen; that was the clincher over the U12+.

There is a ridiculous amount of bloatware , though I've probably got used to custom ROMs over the years.

I thought I'd bricked the phone disabling some apps via ADB (see the bloat thread) but all sorted now.

My previous phone was the Pixel XL.

It was a good phone, but earlier this year the battery was giving out, so I needed a switch. Was not impressed with the Pixel 2 XL.

I left Samsung after the S3 because their touchwiz and bloatware was terrible. My dad upgraded to the S8, and after I saw how much it was improved and clean, I went with the S9. Hard to deny Samsung always had the best hardware. Funny thing is that Google is marketing directly to Apple users, but I see Apple users switching to Samsung. Four lifetime iPhone users I know switched to Android to the first time with the S9. Pretty cool.

SAMSUNG S5 - hated

SAMSUNG S7 EDGE - excellent

SAMSUNG S8 - had to have it and excellent

SAMSUNG S9 Plus

Love the s9 plus however if my screen on S8 would not break I would not upgrade.

Yes it has some extra features but in my opinion not worth to even think about the upgrade. In fact I was regreting that I didn't wait for new screen to arrive for my S8 and upgraded while waiting for it.
