[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] tkiafar:
Just gave away my Nexus 6P with 8.1 and now I'm stuck on 8.0. I am in Ireland with Nokia 7 plus TA-1062 from US. I have some concerns over this whole android one support of Nokia. I read there have been issues with 8.1, and that may be the reason to pull the update, however, they are out of resources to rectify the issues over two months and this is a bad sign.

The other concern is about this statement: the updates will roll out per country and carrier. Now according to the advertisements the android one update is provided by Google. If it is supposed to vary based on carrier what is the difference between android one support and regular support provided by other companies? The process for the other phones is the same, they pull the base code and integrate their own flavor, test it and release it. The thing going on here sounds quite the same to me.
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] andy_48:
I got to within 1 step of sideloading 8.1 and got the "Unable to..." stuff in the attached screenshot.

Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong and how to fix it, please?

If it's drivers I'm missing, where can I find them?
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] beje86:
If it works for someone else: I was on April update and just got the May prompt doing the following (I'm in Spain):

- Power off and take out SIM

- Disable location

- Go to Settings -> Apps and delete all the storage data from Google Play Services and SIM Services

- Reboot

- Wait for a moment (meanwhile I re-activated the stuff I deactivated because I thought it didn't work)

- Ta-da! Prompt appeared.
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] jv.batista:
That was just a coincidence... xD

The update just got available in Portugal. :)

edit:

Installing...

Step 1 of two???? Really? xD

why not Step 1 of 2 or Step one of two or even Step one of 2? xD

I'm in Ireland as well (North) and have to 1062, just wondering if you have got any further with it?
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] tkiafar:
I also have the 1062. I am currently on May 1 update and believe this is the latest. It instantly started downloading the update after manual update. The update was about 440 Mb.

Edit: sorry I thought I was posting in another thread. I manually updated the phone to 8.1 with this method. Yet I cannot register for P preview on the Nokia website. It says it is unavailable for my IMEI.
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] Flameboy42:
Then how did you get P preview?
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] tkiafar:
I didn't get the P preview. I installed the 8.1 image manually. According to the other comments P preview is unstable, with so many new features disabled.

Anyway if you want to install P preview, the image for it is found on the same thread I quoted before. With P preview, It is likely that you need to use ADB for going back to 8.1, so you need to be comfortable with command prompt/shell.
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] Flameboy42:
Is there a guide to installing 8.1 manually?

EDIT;: Nvm, just saw you posted above.
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] Flameboy42:
Actually, could you tell me how to do it? That thread is all over the place haba

Helpful post on Nokia Support from "quigger" worked for me:

https://community.phones.nokia.com/support/discussions/topics/7000023851/page/12?url_locale=

"I was 8.0.0 Feb security.

1. I signed up to the Nokia developer preview, downloaded the "current roll-back image"

2. Transferred it to an SD card via my computer.

3. Put SD card back in phone.

4. Rebooted phone to check file before using recovery mode.

5. However, when the phone rebooted it found the file on the SD card itself and offered to install it whilst phone was active (no need to use recovery mode).

6. I accepted and waited for the 100% to install, and then had to reboot.

7. Once rebooted I was on 8.1.0.

8. I only have April security update at present. (I suspect EE (UK Network) are blocking the May one)."

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] CactuarKing:
Im using a Galaxy s7 edge exynos and I have been trying ALL day to return to stock firmware. (was aiming for 6.0, but when that didnt work I started trying 7.0 with slightly more success...) I was previously rooted via magisk using TWRP. I am not able to flash all 4 files at once via odin, (BL, AP, CP, CSC) I quickly get an error on both the device and odin (decive says binary 2 device something... Odin stops at either Param.bin or cm.bin depending on which CSC I use) the BL file seems to be the one that refuses to flash (from any of the 4 versions of odin i have and using different firmware versions that previously worked on the phone)

I am able to flash just the AP, CP, and CSC but when android loads up my mobile data doesnt work and many other things dont work correctly as well ...

I am so confused as to what I can even possibly do now. Im sitting here with a phone that wont correctly software update that I cant correctly root and has no mobile data. No full 4 files will correctly flash without odin error. TWRP gives me crap now too. I have wiped and formatted all the data many times hoping id missed something.

Send help :eek:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] CactuarKing:
also

I try to manually update and it says "registering device" for a sec and then "Process failed" Like android 7.0 is running but not how it was before. I did update to newest update via the phone before i decided to try to revert to android 6.0 again because I was having issues connecting my pokemon go+

Did you flash and Oreo rom by anychance?

"Maybe", i say maybe if you did thats why you cant go back to a < 8.0 version
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] CactuarKing:
I didn't try anything with oreo until like 10 hours of failing everything and reading everything I could find. It was unofficial and apps wouldn't install or update correctly. So actually what I got to semi work was 7.0 again. Build G935FXXU1DPLT. It doesn't show cell tower signal or work with 5ghz anymore but I got magisk installed and I can run apps off of wifi. (Same as before 8.0 but got magisk working this time)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] CactuarKing:
I'd still like to try to get my 5ghz and cell signal (just in case something happens to my main phone) but I'm scared to soft brick my phone for the 1000th time in 2 days when I managed to get it semi working.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] riseofsand:
Last time something like that happend to me, is because i was flashing the wrong stock rom (same model but wrong original carrier) sometimes it does matter, sometimes not
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] CactuarKing:
I was worried I might have messed it up for good as well luckily I'm not completely stuck but I still dont understand why I couldnt just 100% flash my OS via odin like I always do. Although I got cocky and started without following instructions up on the computer this time. Just my luck

Hi, how do I change my Samsung Keyboard? The phone is bought from Hong Kong with SM-G9650/DS model, so I think that is why the Samsung Keyboard layout is different when I click the "!?#" symbol. I cannot also install the Samsung Keyboard from Google Play Store. Attached are screenshots of the layout of my current Samsung Keyboard and the layout when I click the "!?#" symbol and "123" symbol.

I'm running a custom Oreo ROM on my 950F but miss not being able to use WiFi calling on H3G UK. In the past, there was a CSC selector file but I didn't find a definitive answer as to whether it would work with Oreo. Is there any other way of getting WiFi calling to work without having to try and flash a CSC zip?

Anyone else noticed that WhatsApp notifications and calls get delayed and you have to open the app to receive them? Whatsapp web also loses connection.

I found many previous threads for other Huawei phones with the same issue and tried what they suggested but the menus on the P20 are different so I haven't found some of the options listed. Anyone found a way to make sure WhatsApp is highest priority/never sleeps?

The MagMount Pro is a bummer - well, the lack of availability. I think this is also the first time that it is mentioned that a new Qi charger is needed?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Accessories] corwin_amber:
No, they dont. Actually nobody does...
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Accessories] ocujos:
While it looks amazing initially, I see significant issues with this case:

"5x stronger than steel" - cases should *absorb* the impact when phone hits a hard surface. Case so strong will just *transfer* the force of the impact to the phone. I suspect glass will crack.

No lip - I can't see a lip on the top/bottom. If a phone falls flat on the surface, screen will be impacted. Most quality cases have a lip to protect the screen in such situations.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Accessories] texasmax:
"5x stronger than steel"- have to imagine that's just Marketing hype and, regardless of how strong it actually is (and what specific sort of measurement we're talking about), they know enough to make it able to absorb some shock.

Lips- I see corner lips which should do the trick.

It's very frustrating that Motorola decided to disable this feature on their Oreo builds.

[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] nicocarbone:
Since updating to Oreo I can access a (non-functional) night-light setting page from Google Play Books. You can see it here here.

I can enable it, but nothing happens (and yes, I tested it at night).

Wishful thinking: maybe Moto is cooking something.

Realistic thinking: it is just a bug. And an annoying one, as I cannot access the built-in night-light filter of Play Books anymore.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] djdelarosa25:
I think Motorola purposely disabled that functionality on first-gen devices so that people are forced to buy the newer ones for such "features".

The video that you sent really is strange, though. I really hope that Moto regains some sanity and implements it in the future.

[HTC Excalibur] velascoperroni:
I bought my Excalibur from a carrier in Mexico called Movistar, but, as I explored the USB settings on Windows when my Excalibur was plugged, I found that the device appeared connected with the following name:

High Tech Computer - SPV C400 / T-Mobile SDA GSM / GPRS Pocket PC

Does this mean that my Excalibur is officialy branded for T-Mobile???

If so, a T-Mobile original RUU would work to flash my Excalibur right???

Could you post a rapidshare link for T-Mobile's original ROM???

I'm desperate, I bricked my phone and I can only get it back by flashing it with the original ROM, please, hurry and anwer!!! I BEG YOU!!

Appreciate it!
[HTC Excalibur] pfunkside:
Tip

velascoperroni if I were you I would just return the phone already. You might want to just accept defeat.

You screwed yourself by flashing a WM5 to a WM6.1 rom before flashing to a WM6. From what I read you must have been impatient or somehow your usb cord unplugged itself during the middle of a flash of the HTC WM6 1.33 rom. It's now stuck and a brick. I've read more posts like this than I can remember. The golden rule to modding is doing a backup before you do anything. Sprite mobile would have been the way to go. Especially with your not so easy to find original rom. I'm not trying to be harsh or mean but lesson learned. Now go return your phone while you still can.

:)

Best regards...
[HTC Excalibur] velascoperroni:
NOOOOO!!!

I will never give up!!!

No, really, I'm seriously considering it... In fact there was a problem with the USB connection when I was flashing it!

Yeah, I should have backed up my original ROM, but to be honest, it never crossed my mind (I didn't even knew about it or how to)

Today I wen't to Movistar and they gave me several HTC service centers here in Mexico, I suposse they may have the original ROM and they may get it fixed but I'm afraid technichians here in Mexico won't have a clue (it has happened to me before that they have no clue and I know more than them for just what I read in the forums, i.e. xbox modding)

Also, I'm worried I voided my warranty... Today I told Movistar about nothing, I just asked for the service centers addresses. What could be a good excuse? "I was listening to music while bluethooting and playing solitarie and it went blank"?

Now, there may be one last way to go: You mentioned sprite mobile for backing up the original ROM, is it too intrusive and/or hard? I can get a hold of a friend's Movistar Excalibur to backup his ROM and use it on mine (it's exactly the same) but I don't wanna screw his phone up and end up with two bricks (specially because he really is a friend of a friend). Is there a tutorial around here? would you (or some other helpfull reader) post it on this thread?

Last but not least, I want to thank everyone that has tried to help, besides a bricked Excalibur I got great knowledge about CID, upgrading, flashing, phone carriers, etc. Three days ago I had no idea and I thought upgrading to WM6 would be a piece of cake! I hope all my posts and your answers would be helpfull for al noobs around with problems alike!

Nonetheless everything posted above: If someone has a 1.15.517.1 original ROM from Movistar or T-Mobile or O2... please, pleaaaase.. I BEG: send it to licenciadosabrosito@gmail.com

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Nax420:
Hey guy's,

I am having similar problems to OP. The "DM Verity error"

The other day my S8+ went into boot loop all of a sudden, I tried all the simple solutions, factory reset etc, nothing worked. The phone kept booting and wouldn't make it past the device model screen. I have tried multiple firmware for my region and have tried dropping down to Nougat.

At this point in time I am able to successfully flash with Odin, haven't had a failed flash yet. Once the flash completes, the device restarts, goes to device model screen and will either enter the "installing update" screen where the install will either crash straight away or at 25%(no more no less), then only sometimes will it take me to the recovery menu.

Down the bottom of the recovery menu is the "DM Verity error". I then proceed to wipe cache, factory reset then reboot device, only to be stuck in a boot loop or on the crashed install screen.

The device is still under warranty but due to dropping it (with glass prot and case on), a small mark has appeared on the LCD. I tried to return the phone to get the software issue fixed but will be charged $400 to replace the screen as Samsung will not send the phone back in an "un-warrantable" state.

I have been trying to solve this issue but i'm finally stumped.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks.

[Xiaomi Mi Max 2  Questions & Answers] FangXIII:
Since I wasn't getting any responses on the magisk module thread, I'll just post it here.

Hi, im running stable xiaomi.eu 9.0.3.0 ROm wiht the latest "sysconfig patcher" version (GMS Doze+). And just to be clear, what I did was settings > installed apps >google play services, > battery > battery optimisation and then i select optimise, is that how to enable Doze on MIUI? So, everytime i reboot my device, battery optimisation will reset to not optimised. And strangely, when i select battery optimisation within google play services, the popup selection box, has Google Backup Transport heading? Is that normal with you? Sometimes I get Google Account Manager too, instead of Google Play Services.

The reason for all of this is I found out that Google Play Services consumed quite a bit of battery when my phone is awake and when it is on standby. So I am just wondering if anyone managed to get GMS Doze working on their devices?

u guys could also try and use greenify donation package in order to hibernate system processes like google play store. that should do the trick :)
[Xiaomi Mi Max 2  Questions & Answers] Theseusperse:
You'll have to root with SuperSu or Magisk, install Xposed and then Greenify + donation package. It's a massive hassle and you end up using more battery than just leaving Miui stock.

Oh and forget your banking apps working.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 2  Questions & Answers] jbmc83:
no need for xposed to use greenify donation :) flashing magisk via TWRP is not that much of a hassle tbh... plus u have magisk hide, so no issues with banking apps :) ive been rooted basically ever since i started with android phones back in 2011 on gingerbread and in all that time i have had exactly one single instance of an app misbehaving due to root. switched from supersu to magisk and voila, problem solved...
[Xiaomi Mi Max 2  Questions & Answers] Theseusperse:
i think you don't understand what OP is asking, he doesn't want to just Greenify apps, anyone can do that without Magisk, but he wants to Greenify (sleep) Google background stuff like Google Services which requires Xposed, and Xposed isn't compatible with Magisk hide, so your banking (and other sensitive apps) wont work. I've done it a million times now on my Xiaomi, it's the only way. Forget NFC because it wont work after you do this (not that the Mi Max has NFC anyway)
[Xiaomi Mi Max 2  Questions & Answers] jbmc83:
aaaah i had no idea that xposed doesnt work in combination with magisk hide!
