Yes. Flash the new recovery through your old recovery and reboot.
[Asus ZenFone 4 Max Guides, News, & Discussion] alegmx:
Here is my tutor after a hard work on my zenfone 4 max whole day.

first of all you must download the last asus update for zenfone 4 max, I used 233.

put it into sd card, boot into stock recovery and update. (if you have a new phone just do it, if you already unlocked bootloader and installed twrp, just boot bootloader and flash stock recovery above.)

https://drive.google.com/open?id=1YP7v9sBclQULxYPOndDPCMLikZsT8urN

after this step, just do unlock bootloader. (if not unlocked), and flash twrp.

*recommended reboot recovery twrp and make a backup now

reboot bootloader and flash the boot above, it has no decrypt and magisk 16

https://drive.google.com/open?id=1bHk0znQNsH-dWZ89P525gC-rrvN4e9bl

reboot recovery twrp. Do the following:

format data partition,

reboot recovery twrp

clear data, cache and dalvik cache.

Now boot system, all data encrypt is gone, and you can activate it if you want.

You cant boot system until this boot image is flashed, or encrypt will be activated.

I use my phone on my bike in a holder, and when I go to unlock it says touch disable mode. I press volume up and power to disable and it never disables, and I don't see a way to disable this mode under smart assistance like there was on the previous version. I'm on Oreo. Please help a brother out!
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] mrmazak:
it has to do with the light sensor being covered.

might be to do with the holder covering or partly covering the top portion of the screen
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] Samyak210:
I searched everywhere for the setting to disable the touch disable mode. It looks like they forgot to add in the Oreo update. I have suggestions that you can try:

1. Press the volume up and power buttons three times to enable/disable the feature: I found this solution somewhere online but it doesn't work for me.

2. If it is possible, you can cut the part of the holder that is covering the proximity sensor. I have used CPU-Z to find out where exactly the proximity sensor is located. It is located in the space between the front camera and the earpiece.

3. Send a mail or call the Huawei/Honor support team. They might be able to help you and with a software update months later, it might be fixed.

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KoolieAid:
I can't seem to boot to recovery and I cant go to OS bc it doesnt have one.

Here is full story:

I wiped /system and /data

Tried to install an updated rom

Phone denies the ROM

Decided to update the recovery as well

Rebooted to recovery

Nothing happened

Probably bc I flashed it via zip, not .tar

Went to Odin or download mode

Tried to install rom

Didn't work (dm-verity issue or something)

Tried to install recovery via odin

Rebooted itself

Boots to Samsung logo

Can't go to recovery

Can't go to os

Only way is odin

Also before it booted to logo

There's a charging symbol which won't go away

I was thinking maybe a custom rom that can be flashable using odin would work?

but i couldnt find any

[HTC Excalibur] proph3t:
Alright got a new dash and carefully began to flash to 6.1 from 5.0.

I first did a hard reset.

Then ran the app unlock.

Reset device.

Downloaded Ricks WM6.1 and ran the auto.bat

Followed instructions.

Screen turns white.

Run the ROM updated.

ERROR: Connection or something..

Turn off device and enter boot mode by holding camera.

Downloaded the Dash_Software_Update_1.22.531.4.exe and ran it succesfully

Phone wont turn on at all..

I can enter boot mode though with the camera button.

What should I do? The original dash software doesn't even seem to install correctly and I cant CID unlock because I can only boot into the tri-color screen. Help is much appreciated.

I think you will need to upgrade from WM5 to WM6, then flash again up to WM6.1 ... been doing this a while now and have never seen much success with jumping generations.

I'd guess this is because of IPL/SPL versions.

[General Topics] monrokhoury:
So as the title suggests, let's hear about your current daily driver, how do you like it so far? What kinds of features do you appreciate most? What do you think is missing?

Also, let's talk about your least favorite devices as an added hono bonus.

Might as well get it started, my current daily driver is an LG V30, H933 to be exact. It's a very well rounded phone, and for up to 90% of the tasks, it's managed to replace my laptop. Battery life is more than enough for me, even with brightness set on auto and screen resolution on 2880 x 1440, the cameras are real nice, and the wide angle shooter is just addictive to mess with, great stock camera app too. Audio quality is superb, I just love the HiFi quad DAC and even the speaker is well above average imho. Finally as expected from any flagship, performance is great, and while activating battery saver mode does introduce a difference, for most tasks you still don't notice much lag.

I'm gonna say I appreciate the ip68 rating and the ruggedness of the phone, it's already taken a small drop and survived no problem, but that was enough motivation for me to get a UAG plasma case. I also put a screen protector on it initially, but dust kept accumulating around the edges and eventually making its way under the protector I got fed up and removed it. As long as you have a decent case that has raised lips both the front and rear glass should be fine, but now I never keep the phone in the same pocket as coin or keys.

Also it turns out that in case you damage the glass, it's quite cheap to replace (15 dollars from what I've heard).

As for phones I never see myself using as daily drivers, the latest iPhones certainly make the list. On top of almost complete lack of customizability and control over the phone, lackluster stock camera apps for (a photographer like me at least), and ridiculous pricing, Apple's desperation to sell their phones (or rather force them down your throat) is becoming pathetic. The 8 and 8 plus are rather fragile, and the iPhone X, while admittedly better, isn't better by much, and the worst part is that if you crack the glass on any of these phones, it'll cost so much to replace if you don't have apple care, you might as well just get a new device, which, in all likelihood, is exactly what Apple wants you to do. Between that, and introducing OS updates that intentionally throttle the performance of their older phones, whatever little appeal Apple's devices had, is now imho gone.

Another phone I would avoid is the Motorola moto z2 force/play, the plastic screen not only feels cheap, but is also very prone to scratches. The moto G5s plus is a better budget device than the play of you ask me.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] robibby:
I've upgraded from an xda orbit to an xda stellar (kaiser/tytn ii)

The GPS in the stellar seems to be abysmal - sent tomtom 6 bananas in London recently, maps just spinning round. The stellar shows a typical signal strenth of 1-2 bars (normally 1) compared to the orbit which shows 4-5 bars, and it takes forever to pick up a signal, even using QuickGPS. I've tried testing the two side by side and the orbit shows 5 bars, kaiser 1 bar.

Would appreciate any advice - at the moment I have to use the orbit for satnav, GPS is completely unreliable on the kaiser.

thanks a lot
