flash twrp after flashing stock with Odin and wipe cache partition, or try flashing a custom Rom.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mo.programmer:
Acutally as I've said before, after flashing whatever a stock rom, the phone is getting into state that looks like it is turned off, but if I tried to get into the download mode again then I can.

So I have tried to flash a custom recovery like TWRP but once more with not chance :(
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Svirusx:
Maybe try flash with odin STOCK ROM with .pit file for your phone and set repartition.

Not every Stock have .pit in but you can find it in internet i think too in this forum ;]
[General Topics] Riceburner:
Just a thought - has any manufacturer sold a phone/pda with a "built in" bluetooth headset?

Was just thinking about it and I reckon it would certainly be feasible (but would need clever marketing).

take a phone, especially one the size of a PDA and where the earpiece is, you have a slide out, narrow/thin format BT headset.

When in the phone/pda the headset is powered and directly connected to the device, adnd thus acts just like a normal earpiece within the phone.

When out of the phone, it's powered by an internal battery (charged from the phone), and acts just like a normal, simple, headset. The act of pulling the headset out of it's slot could also be the signal for answering a call, turning on voice dialling or whatever (software setable), and vice versa.

Obviously there'd be some drawbacks - short battery life (can be lived with/improved over time), the phone/pda would need sufficient depth (shouldn't really be an issue), and it's added complexity and cost. But if it was suitably well designed and marketed I think there's a market out there.

I for one find it very annoying that the greatest use of the phone/pda, namely having a diary/mini PC, and a phone in one device, is destroyed in one instant by the realisation that you can't use it in both ways at once, UNLESS you buy a seperate item, or use the wired earpiece (irritating).

Also BT headsets are even smaller than phones ever were and are prone to being mislaid, damaged etc very easily - by storing it in the phone body you have a safeguard.

I think I saw a concept design of a phone for children that had this feature, although I've thought of it before now, but it's good that it's occurred to someone else! (prooves I'm not totally mad!)

Any opinions?

[Moto G5 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] cpm:
Personally I think Oreo will come perhaps 1-2 months after the G6 launch.

I still see Motorola using the Android 7 v 8 comparison between the phones as a marketing ploy.

Lenovo screwed us over, stock-ish Android but no major updates or improvements other than security patches. I will never buy another one of their phones again that's for sure. Next device will probably be a Android One device like the Nokia 7 Plus.

- With this form, the commit "merge tag xxx into xxx" doesn't show as a description the complete list of commits that have been made in the merge, how can I show the complete list?

- Some devices have extra modules that are found in other branches of the caf kernel, for example: fw-api, qcacld-3.0, qca-wifi-host-cmn, how can I merge that too?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] LordArcadius:

git merge -s ours --no-commit FETCH_HEAD --allow-unrelated-histories
git read-tree --prefix=drivers/staging/qcacld-3.0 -u FETCH_HEAD
git commit

Updates:

git fetch qcacld <the_new_tag>
git merge -X subtree=drivers/staging/qcacld-3.0 FETCH_HEAD

- fw-api:

First merge:

git remote add fw-api https://source.codeaurora.org/quic/la/platform/vendor/qcom-opensource/wlan/fw-api
git fetch fw-api <tag_to_merge> (In my case was: LA.UM.7.2.r1-05800-sdm660.0 )

sup guys I have a problem, recently I bought a moto z play (at least I was thinking it was) but to my unhappiness it was fake i bought a Alps Z Play, so i have a question, can i put a original rom in this phone or a custom moto z play rom? :crying: :confused:

obs: built-in version: alps.l1.mp6.v2_magc6580.we.l_p45 and version number: LMY47I
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] echo92:
I don't think so - the Alps Z Play has a different CPU (Mediatek MT 6580, 4 cores at 1.3 GHz) as opposed to the Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 (8 cores at 2 GHz) and only 1 GB of RAM in the clone, from what I can see of the benchmarks: https://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/compare/8178138?baseline=7380482 ). Motorola stock firmware won't flash onto a Mediatek CPU/bootloader and you may end up bricking the device. The Alps Z Play appears to be running Android 5.1/6.0 as well from the benchmarks.

I would recommend returning the device if you can - for a refund - and buying a genuine Z Play. I do not know if other Mediatek ROMs will work on that device, though I imagine it'll be quite slow.

Well that app send you to a site, where they will ask you to register and then pay $29.95 to root the phone for you remotely, so If I were you, I will stay far from there, unless you want to pay for the privilege.

Sure if there is a way to root it, soon it will be found on this site. and you should be able to do it by yourself

Well, not really remotely, you need your computer and usb cable I guess they will send you the links from where to download the files you need in order to root, they even say that if no root, money back

Just for completeness I will go through my full process:

1. Installed HardSPL

2. Installed Dutty's WM6.1 Official UC 5.2.19199 RTM

3. Discovered that there wa no sound so set about finding a solution

4. Downloaded NIKI_Radio_Only_1.58.16.27_CustomRUU

5. Installed HardSPL again as would not connect

6. Installed NIKI_Radio_Only_1.58.16.27_CustomRUU

Problem is that it reached 100% on the install then said it had lost the connection (made USB disconnect noise and everything). The NIKI radio installer only had an exit option and cannot reconnect. The phone is on 100% and won't go any further.

I am very worried about what to do next as clearly I could be in a bad flash situation. Any advice on what to do and what I may have done wrong would be very appreciated ASAP.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] _RMB_:
if you already hard spl correctly then you dont have to do it again.....now you need to put your phone in tricolor mode (press power button and camera button at the same time and while holding then down soft reset with your styles...then you would be in tri color mode) then connect to PC and reflash rom and radio!

PS. please read the wikis on duttys (after flashing tutorial) as you would need to hard reset after! flashing rom for the first time!

[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] b0ng0s:
Hi guys I kindly require your assistance concerning my Samsung A5 2016 A510F, device was running android 5.1.1 before I updated to android 7.0. Here's the reason why I updated, device was acting shaggy it would suddenly close apps during operation. for an example with error "messaging has stopped working" would close most of the apps with the same error or suddenly restarts itself especially when the battery is less than 50%.

So I then attempted to do OTA update but failed to install "error, invalid file" so I went the Odin way, Downloaded stock firmware and flashed via Odin, everything went smooth until reached the "apps optimization 40 of 40" stacked there for about 30 minutes until i decided to restart the device, upon restart the device no longer went pass the Samsung logo stacked there.

Here's what I tried to resolve the issue:

- Cleared cache

- Factory reset

On recovery screen i noticed an error about "e: failed to mount partition" I tried almost every solution I came across to on Google with no luck. I then tried flashing to this custom rom https://xdaforums.com/samsung-a-series/development/rom-resurrection-remix-rr-v6-unofficial-t3765542

Installed successfully but gets stuck on "checking for software update" I reinstalled the custom ROM again but this time without the GAPPS device booted successfully to home screen, went back to TRWP this time installed the GAPPS rebooted, it went successful, however device is unusable it keeps popping error "google play services closed" every 2 seconds.

Please help, is my phone officially dead :( :( I need clarity. Your assistance will be highly appreciated thanks in advance ;)

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] Emad.Agha:
Hi all,

My Galaxy Tab A6 (SM-T585) suddenly can't be recognized by my laptop or read my usb flash via OTG. I searched for any working solution but all in vain

- many different cables

- 2 different laptops

- updating drivers

- factory reset

- clear charging port with alcohol

........... etc

I thought that it's either tab software or laptop windows update. The final probability was that the charging socket should be changed with a new one ( i read that someone tried changing IC responsible for usb data).

I was not ready to think about hardware solution. I searched again until i found a video (may be in Spanish & i'll try to add the link) offers a simple & brilliant solution that works for me after all failed trials.

Solution is :

1- Simply drain your battery to the end.

(make sure it's drained by turning on phone many times. Enter download mode and restart again)

2- If the device has separate battery pull it out ( i can't do it in my Galaxy tab A)

3- leave the phone for a while ( i think he said 10 mins but i left it couple of hours).

4- charge it again or connect with pc >> it will be recognized :laugh:

(it may take sometime to charge as the battery is drained)

My Tips for draining battery fast

- open all apps at the same time

- open wifi (better no to register to network to keep scanning)

- bluetooth & mobile data if found

- open a video in the background with Mx Player

- use camera ro record video with higest resolution & flash

- copy files to and from sd or wifi

..........etc

I only did this and works for me so i made an account to post this thread to help all people with the same problem.

Final notes

- This may work with other mobiles and tablets but i tried it only with my tab A.

- Other solutions may work also according to the cause of problem (cable - driver .... etc).
