[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] aaron281:
Hi Guys!

I've been using my Huawei P20 Pro for about a month and discovered a line on the back of the device, below the HUAWEI logo. Its visible when smudged with fingerprint oil(?)

Anyone have it? should i return it to get it fixed or not?

PS: can't post a pic since I'm new. :(
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] DaveP2611:
Not got this issue and as it's on the back, it's likely they will just claim either you did it or general wear and tear.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Relay85:
Hi guys. I apologize if there is already a thread similar to this one.I tried to do a search but I keep getting blank results.

I hope someone can help me.

I have a Samsung S4 I9500 Exynos with Stock 4.2.2 rom.My question are-

Can I flash a custom 6.0.1 rom directly over the 4.2.2 or will I have problems with the bootloader and kernel (modem/radio)?

I want to flash either GearCM or RR.I already have TWRP 3.2 I think and am rooted.

Or would I need to flash to Custom 5.1.1 rom first to prevent any problems?

If I need to flash 5.1.1 can someone please recommend a rom thats customizable like RR but still very stable for everyday use with minimal bugs and that includes the latest bootloader and kernel (modem\radio)?

If I like the 5.1.1 rom that you guys recommend I'll rather use it, but I like 6.0.1 UI more.

Please I will appreciate any help you guys can give me.

Thank you
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
You'll probably have to update the bootloader and modem before flashing a custom 5.0 or 6.0 ROM.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Relay85:
Ok thanks [MENTION=1865934]audit[/MENTION] much appreciated.You don't maybe know who has the latest stuff?Will it be [MENTION=218829]ALBERTO[/MENTION]'s roms?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
The easiest and safest way to update the bootloader and modem world be top flash the latest stock ROM from sammobile.com with Odin. Once updated, you can flash twrp, and a custom ROM for your phone.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hiitsrudd:
OS rom

Tell me how everything goes with your Galaxy. I too have a GT-i9500 which I flash to RR it installed okay but had bugs & used up battery life quickly. So I tried to flash to my backup, which it did but it didnt like? So right now I had flash to a stock 5.0.1 rom from Sammoble to save the device. Everything is good now. I think support for this model is not good being its an international model? cheers
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Relay85:
Thank you so much for that info [MENTION=9140439]hiitsrudd[/MENTION].I am still searching for a rom on sammobile I could only find the latest kernel but its locked for premium users.Could you maybe send me a link for that stock rom PLEASE.Then I'll upgrade to 5.0.1 before flashing the custom one.Which RR did you flash 6.0.1 or 7.1.2?Ill gladly post how my flash went.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hiitsrudd:
I don't have info for that RR rom off hand I may may have deleted? Anyway you can sign in to SamMobile as a basic user and download the Taiwan version (I9500ZSSHQD1) its free. I've seen here as well:http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I9500

cheers mate:good:

Hi [MENTION=9140439]hiitsrudd[/MENTION] thank you for that link you gave me you really are an angel from above.I found a rom in there for my country aswell thank you so much.It seems I was looking on the wrong page.Those stock roms are big 1.5gb im gonna have a hard time downloading.

[MENTION=9140439]hiitsrudd[/MENTION] have you tried this rom

https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4/i9500-orig-develop/5-0-cyanogenmod-12-beta-t2944968

Its in the original section and seems to have most of the bugs ironed out.Im really leaning towards downloading it and see if it works.Thanks so much for your help once again. :)

How's that Cyanogen mod going for ya?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Relay85:
Hi [MENTION=9140439]hiitsrudd[/MENTION].Apologies for being so quite.I was exremely busy the past few weeks.Ok so i finally got some time to download that rom I mentioned to you.

I want to flash it now but I'm a bit worried.

1.When the dev posted a modem and he says flash through CWM, can I also flash it via TWRP?

2.Do I flash the modem before flashing the android rom?

3.Can I flash another updated modem instead of the one the dev used?For example there is newer modems available in the GearCM 5.1.1 can I flash that one instead?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hiitsrudd:
[MENTION=8048083]Relay85[/MENTION] not sure what you mean about flashing modem? I'm under the impression that a modem would be flashed with whichever ROM you choose? I've been busy with a kindle also, let me check into this later.

Anyway I believe you have TWRP installed so you should be good to go to flash any ROM of your choice, I would flash Magisk & the Gapps for you device as well. You should be okay, I'm assuming you downloaded the latest version of this ROM, because the Developer usually does updates. happy flashing:good: I pray for rain in your region too!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
I have not seen a custom ROM include a modem. The modem is usually part of the stock ROM included with downloads from sammobile.com or samsung-updates.

If you want to flash a custom ROM, I suggest flashing the latest stock ROM from sammobile.com with Odin. This will ensure that the phone is running the latest stock bootloader and modem.

I do not recommend flashing a modem unless something is not working after flashing the custom ROM and it has been stated that flashing the custom modem will not cause any future issues with other ROMs.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hiitsrudd:
Yep the GT-9500 has a LTE capable factory modem which should run in the custom ROM.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Relay85:
Hi guys ( [MENTION=9140439]hiitsrudd[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4673498]audit13[/MENTION] ) thanks for both your replies.Really appreciate the help you gave me.

[MENTION=9140439]hiitsrudd[/MENTION] So I never flashed the custom rom I mentioned in my previous post because I read someone complaining about battery draining problems.

I flashed this custom rom:

https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4/i9500-develop/ressurrection-remix-m-t3404556

and I have to say its amazing.Its fast,stable, battery life is about the same as stock android but performance is better in my opinion.I have not yet experienced any of the bugs they mentioned on the thread so I guess they fixed everything.But I have to say I'm thoroughly impressed with this rom. I flashed the 5.7.4 version with gapps pico and everything works great.Im now looking for a kernel to flash just to see if I can get a bit more battery life but I'm not in a hurry cause the rom runs great as is.

I can highly recommend this rom if you are looking for something different than stock.Its really an awesome custom rom.The dev really did an amazing job with this one.I really like the startup logo aswell.Wish I had this rom on my other S4 I9505.I really miss that phone.

Anyway thanks for all your help [MENTION=9140439]hiitsrudd[/MENTION].I really hope you give this one a shot.And I hope to speak to you again in the future.

Cheers for now.All the best to both you guys.

This thread is now closed as my questions were answered and solved.

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Denisuu:
I replaced the mainboard in my Galaxy G920F with exactly the same board, I still have the IMEI of the old board (Don't have the Serial Number though).

Is it possible to restore the backup from my old identical device?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] whitehawk66:
Ok then! this will sound like a newby question....I'm not really, I swear!!

So I have my lovely rooted Note 8 all set up the way I like it. It's pretty perfect.

During the data transfer from my old phone to new one using Samsung SmartSwitch, every thing went fine without a hitch.

I can no longer use the SmartSwitch app since my phone is rooted now....not changing that.

Somewhere in the process, my contacts got imported into Gmail app. Which I DO NOT want. I usually removing nearly all of Google's apps along with Verizon's as well as Samsung's...I have a policy of uninstalling what I don't want or need or think much of.

However, my contacts are now associated with the Gmail app - if I remove the app, the contacts disappear!!.

I would like to know what is the most current, up to date and trouble means of backing up my contacts, then deleting the Gmail app, then restoring the contacts? Would a Contacts backup and restore in Titanium Root do the trick? is there another, easier or better method?

Thanks for your assistance!

They don't work at all or partially work? My vol - button works one time if I press it like five times. If that's the case, then you can still flash twrp and stuff. Try removing back cover and press vol buttons directly. If they still don't work then sorry mate.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] JSZESZE:
I just received the OnePlus 6 avengers edition here in the US. face unlock speed was instantaneous. I just upgraded from the China (Hydrogen OS) rom to the Global (Oxygen Os) rom. and there is a noticeable delay. the only thing I can attribute it to is the Oxygen Rom displays the lockscreen first by default before unlocking. Hydrogen OS goes straight to the home screen from the phone being off.

Thoughts?

[Moto E4 Plus Questions & Answers] Josh'sDroid:
Stupidily, I decided to flash a ROM today. I didn't loved it, so I decided to restore from my TWRP backup.

Big mistake.

It got corrupted somehow and I had a soft-brick.

I followed [MENTION=4939155]zerogun[/MENTION]'s thread to go back to stock, but stupidly i decided to skip

fastboot flash recovery.img

. I thought that there would be no issues with this, I wanted to skip the TWRP flashing.

After rebooting the phone I noticed that my computer recognized the phone as QHSUSB_BULK.

[IMG="Devices"]https://img.xda-cdn.com/erI3mkLS3gyWpUMKcDbfzKuoQqk=/https%3A%2F%2F78.media.tumblr.com%2F111a8a06938560f444e997647a1ccbf5%2Ftumblr_p9kgpvNOcK1svhou7o1_1280.png[/IMG]

This never happened, I thought to myself.

The first time I followed the thread it took about 10-15 minutes for the stock rom to load.

This time, it's been 1 hour and I get a black screen. No sounds, no white text, nothing at all.

Perhaps I'm having the same issue as this user, but it might be as well that I'm not.

What can I do?

EDIT: 06/02/2018

I installed the Qualcomm drivers.

Now phone is recognized as qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008. I'm still bricked though.

infinite loop of XT-1772

Hello good afternoon

I have my Moto E4 Plus XT-1772 that turns on in fastboot mode, but does not connect to the pc. I tried with two USB cables, on all ports and with a computer with Windows 10 and another with Windows 7.

The computer does not recognize me, nor in the device manager.

In fastboot mode I read:

AP FASBOOT FLASH MODE

Baseband: <not found>

Product / Variant: null

SKU: XT1772

Serial Number: null

IMEI: null

Console: null

BATTERY: OK

Engineering

Software Status: official

Transfer Mode: Cable Connected (If I disconnect from the usb cable not connected appears)

Device Status: locked

I have already tried everything, change usb cables, change computer and I also tried to leave it connected all night to the charger.

I tried to try to enter recovery mode and also factory mode but it is in infinite loop with Moto logo

I also tried to enter meta mode but it stays like this for a few minutes and returns to the infinite loop

I tried connecting it without battery, also with the vol + button, I tried it with vol - but more than opening fastboot mode it doesn't

I need help please, anyone? Any suggestion ??

I appreciate very much in advance

Basically what it says in the subject. I have a VS995 I'd like to use on T-Mobile and have the same terrible LTE connection as everyone else who tries this. I've read US996 based ROMS (As well as Lineage OS) solve the issue, but doesn't really matter to me if I am rooted.

[Huawei GX8] Slartibartfast_:
After a factory reset I now get the Google "This device was reset" screen prompting me to enter credentials of a user that was previously logged on. This phone has been in use by both myself and my wife for 2 years now. I've tried using both her email to log on and mine but after a few seconds it just goes back to the same screen. I know my password is correct because I get the 2 factor authentication prompt on my main phone and an email saying I logged in from a new device. But still, nothing happens on the GX8.

I tried some of the tricks I found to bypass FRP but they all use the same trick of downloading an apk from chrome and then clicking on "open" at the bottom. mine downloads the file just fine but there is never a prompt at the bottom to open it so I can't run any APK.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
