[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] thedemonschild:
Ok then, thank you for the advice. The stock boot.img files I've used haven't brought back stock recovery though. It says no command with an android on its back. Could you please point me in the direction of a proper stock boot.img I could flash? I don't care about losing root. Also, I tried using blank flash for my device (I'm not entirely sure what that does though as I haven't yet gotten it to work) but it always hangs on <waiting for device>. Any advice?
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Uzephi:
That us stock recovery. Press power and vol up at the same time. It is very wonky and barely works correctly. Takes me a few goes at it before the recovery menu pops up.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] David B.:
As those of you using LineageOS 15.1 on your Nexus 6 may know, any phones that are encrypted using Oreo's encryption cannot be properly decrypted using TWRP. A potential solution to this issue was posted on GitHub here, but the problem is that the image is too big and the compressed version does not seem to work. Would it be possible to expand the recovery partition to make room for the image?

How can i unlock my bootloader without pay dc-unlocker? In the Huawei website there isn't the option.

Thanks for all reply.
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] zgfg:
During the last month there were several posts about, some also opening new topics like you - you can search for them on XDA for the latest status (TG, I have obtained my Bootloader code for my P9 a year ago and keeping it several safe copies)

Apparently, Huawei closed the Web portal for Bootloader codes (401 Not Found). In one thread an e-mail address was posted to manually ask Huawei for Bootloader codes, but later it was written that e-mail address was also closed (because of too many requests).

If Huawei did not restore service (or does not want to anymore?!), then DC Unlocker will remain the only option

did you CID unlock your device?

if so then i suggest installing ranjus v7.4 or similar if not get the original o2 rom from the ftp and extract it, in there it will have the application to run

it wont try to flash unless it can recognise the device so have a play around

i had to replace all the original flashing utilities with the "unsafe" MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe

as mine kept failing with the other :S

however i got your problem once, edited ranjus to include that utility and run it.

if that made sense?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smartish:
I know this seems ridiculous to want to do, but there's a lot of reasons someone would want to run android software on their PC, without the software being able to detect that they're doing so! When I thought of this idea, the first thing I did was try think as if I'm the developer of an app that I don't want running on emulators, and I did what a person in their shoes might do, I googled the issue at hand. Not surprisingly I found some articles on XDA's forums, but also articles in other places. Some of the techniques developers are using are actually pretty simple, for example on this XDA thread (sorry couldn't post links, im too new)they talked about a method where the app looks for specific words in the devices build information that confirm whether the device is a emulator or not. So of course my next step is to check an app I know is currrently detecting the emulator correctly, and see if this code is in their app files. I'm going to use quite a popular apk that does this, PUBG Mobile. So I've decompiled the apk and am going to start a search for anything in their files like this, if you are interested, please tag along, or even just offer some ideas. I would love to get some help on this project!

Some links:(Sorry couldnt post links, im too new)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smartish:
I was right!

Here's the code that I found within the app files:

C:\Users\Other User\Desktop\com.tencent.ig_0.5.0-8025_source_from_JADX\com\tencent\imsdk\android\tools\log\FileLogger.java:

97 }

98

99: private static boolean isEmulator() {

100: return Build.FINGERPRINT.startsWith("generic") || Build.FINGERPRINT.startsWith("unknown") || Build.MODEL.contains("google_sdk") || Build.MODEL.contains("Emulator") || Build.MODEL.contains("Android SDK built for x86") || Build.MANUFACTURER.contains("Genymotion") || ((Build.BRAND.startsWith("generic") && Build.DEVICE.startsWith("generic")) || "google_sdk".equals(Build.PRODUCT));

101 }

102

...

106

107 private void postFileToServer(List<File> list) {

108: if (!isWifiState() && !isEmulator()) {

109 Log.d("iMSDK", "current network is not Wi-Fi");

110 } else if (fileListNotNull(list)) {

Even better is that they use the exact method! they check for these things:

Build.FINGERPRINT.startsWith("generic")

Build.FINGERPRINT.startsWith("unknown")

Build.MODEL.contains("google_sdk")

Build.MODEL.contains("Emulator")

Build.MODEL.contains("Android SDK built for x86"

Build.MANUFACTURER.contains("Genymotion")

"google_sdk".equals(Build.PRODUCT));

(Build.BRAND.startsWith("generic") && Build.DEVICE.startsWith("generic"))

Now I just need to change these things in Bluestacks files and try to modify build information if it's even possible!

Hi! I'm the unluckiest person in the world. (but that's not what i'm here for) Last night i picked up my phone from my desk, pressing the power button, thinking the phone fully booted. BUT NO. it went into eRecovery by itself saying my data partition is broken (it doesn't recognize ext4 and marks it as broken) so i pressed the power button which wiped my data. yay. Is there a way to remove this useless recovery thing before i wipe my stuff again? Thanks

Small bonus question (because i'm too scared of losing my data and breaking my only backup from two months ago, again): If i leave my phone on while charging, when i sleep, will my battery break faster? if yes, does using some battery limiter-like app make it last longer?
[Droid Turbo 2 Accessories] Equinoxe_X:
In the internet,I saw lots of people have beautiful Kinzie.I want to have a beautiful and special Kinzie,too.But I have missed the Moto Maker in China.So,I decide to do it by myself.

I bought some things.

*Nylon Rare Cover

*Stock Screen Protector(Because the old one was full of wound)

*Red Earpiece Decorate Bar

*Red Camera Baffle

*Red Middle Box

*Battery(I want to improve my battery life)

*Side Button Cable(Because my VOL+ was broken)

And some tools.

Things goes well.I have got these things successfully. A night,I began my Moto Maker.

First,power off.Use Hair dryer to heat the raer cover,use stock sim pin remove the rear cover.Then use T3 and T4 screwdrivers remove the middle box.

Second,remove the Graphite stickers.Then we see the Magnesium alloy bracket.Remove it.Then Disconnect battery cable and side bottom cable.Heat the battery then remove it by hand or plastic card.Then heat the side bottom cable.(Without moving battery,you can't remove the side bottom cable.Because the cable is in the battery's below.

Third,stick the new cable and new battery.Then install the new middle box.Then stick the rear cover on the box.Don't forget the camera baffle.

Forth,remove the old protector,remove the old Earpiece Decorate Bar.Clean the screen,and install the new one.The bubbles will disappear after 24h.Then install the new Earpiece Decorate Bar.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SasmungVE9515:
I'll try to keep this as short and as informative as possible.

My gf's phone (6p) after a long time of shutting down at 30ish percent today finally decided to get stuck on a bootloop. Which is really sad knowing all the photos/videos that are currently locked in there.

Seeing how relevant this issue is and how many threads have been created, and knowing the helpful nature of this forum I would really appreciate it if someone would point me in the right direction.

The phone as of now has a locked bootloader and obviously no other custom recovery flashed, and that's probably the problem here. EDIT : IT'S RUNNING ANDROID 8.1.0

I quickly took to youtube and saw people heating up their phones for a temporary fix and quickly removing their data, but honestly that does not seem very practical as the phone will die after a few minutes.

After further "research" I stumbled upon this amazing yet overwhelming thread right over here (https://xdaforums.com/nexus-6p/general/guide-fix-nexus-6p-bootloop-death-blod-t3640279)

However, I am still scratching my head over a few stuff written there. This part to be exact :

"

You can try to get your phone to boot long enough to enable OEM unlocking. Some users have reported success by freezing their phone for a bit, then booting it. Others have let their battery drain all the way, and then tried to boot their phone, but the most successful method seems to be heating up your phone (a lot).

If you do attempt any of these methods, make sure you have time and patience, as it will take a long time.

To enable OEM unlocking and unlock bootloader:

Go to settings.

Go to developer options, if you do not see that, go to "about phone", scroll to build number, and then tap it 7 times. You should now see developer options in settings.

Once you're in developer options, click on "OEM unlocking" and accept the prompt.

Now reboot your phone to bootloader, connect your phone to the computer, and type "fastboot flashing unlock" Your bootloader should now be unlocked.

"

Is this assuming no data will be lost ? And then I will be able to flash the thingy that allow only the Cortex a53 cores to work and bring it back to life with all the data ?

If YES, I am going to heat the phone right now and follow the steps!

Also, is there any improvement on this project and has anyone here had a successful story ?

Lastly I apologize for my somewhat weird English (not native), and I would really really appreciate it if anyone took the time and decides to help me here

Hey everyone, I just wanted to share a juicy little piece of information I came across today. If you already knew about it great, for those who don't, listen up!

On Oreo, setting the navbar height to 0pt does not work. So instead, do this!

adb shell wm overscan 0,0,0,-143

That's all you need. It can also be used to set the height of the navbar to your liking. -143 just happens to be the value at which no trace of the navbar can be seen, and apps will utilize the whole screen, similar to immersive.

Why would someone want this? Easy, gestures. I personally use OnePlus Gestures, but choose whatever you want!

Anyways, enjoy!

To reset back to original settings:

adb shell wm overscan 0,0,0,0
