[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deevun39:
Hey guys, I'm having some problems.

I was on EMUI 8 and with a locked bootloader after installing EU software. After, I tried to unlock the bootloader like I did on EMUI 5, and selected to factory reset. However, upon booting to recovery, It got stuck at the EMUI logo, not factory resetting. It will not boot into fastboot or anything else. If I attempt to use any of the button combinations, it just boots back into recovery and to the EMUI logo, where it does nothing at all.

Is there anything I can do to save it?

EDIT: I just ran the battery down and booted it back up - and now it's fine, booted up great.

Odd discovery, found different menus on our two identical LG V30 phones with the identical version of Nova Launcher installed.

Only one has menus for:

Nova Settings - "Labs"

Nova Settings - "Screen Lock Method"

"Pref Legacy Icons"

and a few other odd differences.

How is this possible?

And how do I get them to match?

Thanks for your help!

Hey, i have a Xiaomi Note 3 Pro Kenzo and one day he just turned off and never went back again. When i plug it on pc, it just shows black screen, flashes the red light multiple times and it's recognized as Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 900E.

I've already searched online and seems that my phone is stuck on EDL mode, so I made it go to the real EDL mode that allows me to flash it a new rom. I managed to make my pc recognize as Qualcomm 9008.

Beeing that, I tried to flash a rom but at the mi flash 20160330 it gets stuck on: "send nop command" forever and at the mi flash 2170425 it gets the error : "<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?><data><log value="init storage:fail " /></data> "

I've got another redmi note 3 pro, and I can flash it, so I don't there's any problem with my computer, but the info is:

Windows 10 Pro 64x

If anyone can help...

Seems like a problem with the emmc chip. Get the device checked to make sure that your emmc is not faulty. If the emmc is safe, contact me and I'll help. Until then good luck.

Thx for the reply man, the problem is that i live in Brazil, we don't have Xiaomi assistance, so I don't have a place to get it checked ;x.

It's already in EDL 9008 mode, I used the test point. Don't know if the DFC will do anything different, but will try it anyway if the way Aditya told me don't work
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Aditya@123:
I should explain you fully

1)removing battery will keep the phone in edl mode but it will solve your error of mi flash is mi flash will successfully flash the fastboot ROM ,remember you need to first remove the battery cable then insert phone ,no light will blink but it will be recognized as qsp loader port in your PC ,don't worry

2) after successfully completing the first step flash the complete fastboot ROM ,it should go success

3)now don't replug the battery cable now ,do nothing ,just insert cherger and press power button as long as the screen don't turn on ,when it will turn on the battery bar wouldn't go up, then without removing the charger cable from phone ,insert battery, you will see that battery is still not charging, nothing to worry this was just to turn the display on ,now again press the power button for 10 to 14 sec so that the device reboot and boom your phone will start charging and after you can successfully boot into system and use your phone.

4)this is if you still cannot successfully flash using mi flash tool just unplug all a the cable which you see after opening back case don't worry you just have to open the cables which you see ,you don't have to unplug those cables in which you have to open screws etc .

Hope this will help you

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] lokoroxbr:
Hello everyone. I have a samsung galaxy s7 edge (SM G935F) and i recently received the android 8.0.0 from samsung. Downloaded and installed directly via the cellphone.

But after updating i am getting this internet/connection drop issues a lot.

Now a lot of times when im connected in wifi or using the 4g mobile internet, im getting a lot of internet lag/drops. Example: at whatsapp, when i sens a message, the clock appears and only after a little rhe time the message is send.

Example 2: at facebook, somerimes it lags and takes too long to load the content (same happening in instagram). Or at clash of clans, it is showing that symbol of internet issue.

Besides those internet bugs/lags, the android 8.0.0 is ok.

I already did a factory reset yesterday via the phone, and saved the files with smart switch. But the problem persists. I also checked and my wifi internet and my mobile internet are ok.

Does anyone knows how to fix this issue? Is there a newer version of the ROM, maybe? Or if not, is ir possible to downgrade to android 7 again (really wouldnt like this option but....)?

If anyone could help that would be great. But for the record:im really newbie at android stuffs....if you can help, please could you explain step by step?

Thanks everyone

I'm tempted to be happy and optimistic about this. But please forgive me if I'll exercise restraint until ZTE makes a statement that everything is back to normal, the OTA servers are back online, etc, etc.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChiDi9901:
Somebody on Reddit is already claiming that the ban is going to be lifted. Or that in this case, here in XDA, "ZTE is back". Why can nobody read articles carefully? Spreading misinformation is never a good thing. The tweet basically says that both parties are working on a solution. Nothing more, nothing less. Also, ZTE was never gone, it still exist. So "ZTE is back" doesn't make much sense here.

Nevertheless, I'm stocking up on spare usb pcb and a battery in case this stays the way it is and no other, decent phone comes out in the next 2 years I'd want to dump $650+ on.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] rjt378:
Lineage is a much better experience all around so any updates no longer get me excited. And there was always reason to be optimistic ZTE could reach a deal as while their transgressions were serious, they are not the same as being tied to Chinese intelligence and the party like Huawei is. The US government still won't use them but banning them outright only killed competition in China which might be good for the US in the long run.

This is the last Chinese phone I will own. Spending less is nice but I think we have reached a point where the battlelines are drawn and people should voting with their dollar. The Axon 7 for $325 was a great deal but Im willing to spend more for a better software experience next time and to support a 'Western' company, even if it is in Taiwan.

I wouldnt consider China an enemy and I marvel at the things we could all accomplish if we put aside our nationalistic garbage, but China will never be like that even if the West was. Fundamentally different views of the world and the future. It's time for Westerners to understand that. China will never be our friends. They dont think like that. It's not about good and evil or anything like that. They just believe they are better and believe they will, and should win. Once you understand Confucianism, you understand China. We either rise to the challenge or fail miserably. As a consumer I can do my small bit. If every Westerner did the same we could start to level the playing field.

And if Google could stop overpricing their Pixel line that would be great. They have zero need to turn a profit. You could easily argue that they should be taking a loss to get their hardware into people's hands in order to improve the inherent issues with Android.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Druboo666:
Stop being a political s_hit in XDA this not place to practice politics it is a good community where we dev our beloved devices.Yes there is a trade war going on with China and US and we are the victim of that war.BTW if you hate china so much then you should die Cause I bet the thing we use in our day to day life all are made in or assembled in China.So its impossible to live without them.:silly:
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] rjt378:
That's a logical and reasonable response.

I lived and worked in China. I dont hate China at all. I just think people in the West should begin to understand China. China wouldnt give a thimble of water to a man on fire. Not because they hate the man on fire, but because they would save the water for themselves because they might need it someday. That's a totally different mentality from the Western mindset that they take advantage of. The best thing we can do is understand China, and all of our competitors. We give away far too much as a result of not understanding and assuming that Western ideals are the dominant ideals, even when capitalism is embraced.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] TPMJB:
If you want to stop the political bull**** on XDA, then stop parroting CNN and going "BUT MUH TRADE WAR!!11" ZTE violated an agreement. Another agreement was set up and they violated that one too. You can only give someone so many chances before you look like a fool.

Everyone should just be hopeful that ZTE isn't out and we might get an actually stable build of oreo

Some are not false urban legends at all. On the contrary I see lots of false claims with no source evidence.

Limiting by percentage still allows the battery voltage to reach higher shorter lifespan voltage. See that limit apps thread for discussion on limiting by voltage through Tasker instead. Further do you know what voltage that percentage idles at? It varies by device implementation setup.

Here's some information on voltage level health.

"Additionally, when the cathode voltage rises past 4.2 V, the electrolyte begins to oxidize (and ultimately decompose). This effectively limits present-day lithium-ion batteries to a maximum voltage of 4.35 V with the understanding that the “bad stuff” begins to occur past 4.0 V, and becomes unsafe past 4.35 V."

[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] BrianFX:
I switched to old weaker chargers (0.5 - 1.0 amp) as there's almost no noticeable heat at all while charging, and I've found this extends the battery life as well. If any/all heat is bad, then aren't short bursts of high heat (3.0 amp QC) worse than long periods of little/no heat (0.5 - 1.0 amp) ?
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Scottyo78:
Sure...

Most all of those "tips" are hogwash.

Modern day charging is handled by the phone. If there's something that hacked that algorithm in my phone, then so be it. :fingers-crossed:
