Hi,

The latest update is 5.6.1.0. :)

And, I don't think so. Even 2015 devices were updated to 5.6.1.0, so I think that Amazon have a lot more updates coming on.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] DragonFire1024:
Their updates have been few and far between lately. It would seem they have a big problem on thier hands. The last time this type of root happened, they abandoned the device. The HD 8.9 for example in my opinion was likely their best tablet yet aside from the HD 10. Every version of that tablet can be rooted and unlocked. They eventually just gave up on it. I predict the same might come of the HD 10. But I hope not because these tablets are actually quite badass.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] Supersonic27543:
And if we unlock it, we don't need to worry about updates! :laugh:
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] spectrax1:
i mean, is there any info from amazon whether they will update the hd 10 or they will stop rolling out updates?!
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] adm1jtg:
What features do you feel the hd10 is lacking?

Security updates?

New features?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] spectrax1:
yeah, i would like some enhanced software updates for a smooth experience. ofc security updates aswell. But the biggest question is, will they stick to android 5 lolipop. Or will they bring a new HD10 in future with android 6 or higher.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] adm1jtg:
My personal opinion is if they were going to move the hd line to anything higher then LP they would have already. I seriously doubt we will ever see a new android version on our units, you have to remember the average user of these tablets probably doesn't even know what lollipop is. They use the tablet as is, they like the amazon interface and amazon uses it as a tool to sell more product ad services.

Said another way the business model amazon uses for these tablets means from their point of view there is no need to update anything except basic performance enhancements and such. In their eyes it was never intended to be used as a pure android tablet. I would guess they lose money on every tablet they sell based solely on hardware costs, they make the money back in sales and services. If they ever do update things it will likely NOT be to get a new version or to add new features but to lock down the tablets even more so that you have no choice but to do things "the amazon way"

Just my opinion
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] Supersonic27543:
Enforcing the point. When I contact them, they would not even admit that this is an Android tablet. :( (They keep saying, "This is not Android, this is FireOS"), and rolling out any major updates will make it harder for them to keep the system their way. Considering the new features that come with 6.0, they will have to rewrite their whole system. So... I don't think they will update it beyond 5.1.1.

I tried to Install Gcam withot fully knowledge and now its erase all my data, is it possible recover all

and my phone while restart coming an error message
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] syaoran7li:
Hey guys.

So a friend of mine got the phone samsung galaxy s7 edge SM-G935F/FD.. from his brother. and my friend hard reset it since he was going to use it as his personal phone.

but then it started. after reset he tried to setup his phone but asked him enter the email address which was previously used on this phone. so he asked his brother.. but his brother doesnt seem to remember which email or passowrd he used.. his brother tried to do the find my account thing but he couldnt get his account back..

so my friend brought it to me. and i looked up and did lots of flashing and followed every guide i could find. but nothing worked.

Phone info

Model: SM-G935 not sure if its f or fd since on recovery it says f.. but this phone was bought in india.. and while downloading stock firmware it showed up as fd for india..

doesnt have adb enabled.

usb debugging and developer options were assumed to be off before reset since when i asked his brother he didnt know what developer option means.

Edit: Accidently posted before entering more info

Android version: he said it was 6.0.1 when he got it.. but he said he updated but hes not sure.. i flashed 7 and now currently its on 6.0.1

Things that i tried.

Rootjunky: literally all the method there is.. nothing worked.

flashed adb enabled files but it didnt work out.. whwn running adb command it shows as device not found.

flashed stock firmware didnt help

tried to install twrp or cf root but binary locked.

searched xda for guides on frp.. but nothing worked..

tried the OTG cable method didnt work

i dd get a combination file from somewhere it flashed fine but it didnt seem to do anything.. same as adb error

dont have a bluetooth headset so couldnt try that method.

there was one method.. calling from realterm and adding it to contacts. which i was able to do earlier.. but when i found out abt the method to send messge to that number as google and opening that link etc i am not able to do that now.. since i flashed lots of roms over not sure which rom had that save contact thing.i did try to flash all the roms i had but a few showed sw ver error .. so couldnt flash the bl file.

also i need to try out z3x method.. which im doing right now.. hope it works.. but from how its going on dont think it will lol.

so hope someone here could guide as to what i should do to fix this..

i seriously spent over a day on this.. flashing over and over.. in that process i tjink.i flashed my mind as well lol

anyway hope you guys can help me

Thanks ^_^
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] chanchan05:
Why not just ask the brother to unlock it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] syaoran7li:
Thanks for the reply.. ^^

WE did actually. but he doesnt seem to remember.. he tried to recover his account but he was not able to.. my friend did this before he came to me.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] syaoran7li:
Confirmed the phone Model.. it is SM-G935FD..

it was written on the back of the phone lol.. *face palm*

also to note.. i cant downgrade bootloader eventhough its a unlocked phone.. so bootloader is stuck with 7
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] syaoran7li:
i solved it.. i think.. i will make sure and post back how i did.. ^_^
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] syaoran7li:
Yep tested it.. all good and working well.. even reflashed stock rom.. and its working as its supposed too...

as for how i fixed it.. well im nto sure if i am supposed to post it here...because it could be used for illegal purposes.. so if some admin approves of it.. then i will post here what i did.

[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] smo69:
I've heard this a bug with Oreo, but I've had this issue since Nougat. Essentially, I've tried connecting several Bluetooth devices to my OnePlus 3T with OOS 5.0.3 rooted w/ Magisk, and while I can get music and notifications to play, I can neither hear nor speak through the phone options using Bluetooth. I've searched for hours on Google as to why this may be happened, and while there are hundreds of reports and instances of this happening, there isn't a single consistent solution.

I've tried messing with the settings, codecs, deleting cache, deleting data from Bluetooth, repairing devices, deactivating Google Now, resetting the phone, you name it.

Is this a problem that is still prevalent with Oreo? This is probably the stupidest unsolvable thing I've ever encountered, and I'm convinced its software related, given that music and all other audio works.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] RASTAVIPER:
Never had such issue with Nougat or Oreo.

Where did you read about such standard bug at Oreo?

Of those links, only the last one is relevant to the 3T.

What specific Bluetooth devices do you have the problem with?

I've use the phone feature with 3 different headsets, my car head unit, and a BT speaker, all with no issues with calls.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] smo69:
I have a problem with every Bluetooth device that uses phone features. This includes a Gear S3, Car Dongle and ear phones.

[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] smo69:
I must have some kind of app causing the problem. I'm just not even sure which app it could possibly be.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] redpoint73:
Any Magisk modules being used? I haven't seen this Bluetooth issue specifically (from Magisk modules) but they can sometimes cause random bugs, and it is a good enough place to start as any.

I think the Samsung gear watches in general, do not play well with a lot of non-Sammy phones. At least from other threads I've seen around. But it is suspicious that you are having the issue on multiple Bluetooth devices (although you don't name the other brands). So I think you are on the right track, that it may be an app or something else peculiar to your device setup.

I've had the phone functions work just fine with Motorola, Plantronics, JBL headsets, JBL speaker, Subaru head unit (Kenwood made stereo, from what I understand).
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] fc_Kuro:
I have the exact same issue. I've tried nougat/oreo.....official OOS....different roms also. Clean flashed the 3T but no luck.

Media audio works perfectly fine. As soon as somebody calls and I answer, the line becomes mute to whatever it is connected to. I've tried both with my car and BT speaker.

I then have to route the call to the ear pierce on the phone to be able to continue with the call.

Everyone I have found with this issue have sent their phones back for repairs.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Saamyo:
OnePlus 3Ts seem to face an issue where if you're in a voice call using your SIM card, and also connected to some Bluetooth device at the same time, the WiFi seems to just s**t itself. It can't give more than 0.10 Mbps ever. It left me confused for a long time until I figured it was due to me calling on my Bluetooth headset/speaker. Truly annoying imo.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] smo69:
I finally figured it out. As I stated earlier, I was sure it was software based because music worked just fine, so I was looking for a culprit app that might have been hogging the phone audio/mic. Oddly enough, it was the T-Mobile Visual Voicemail app. I went ahead an uninstalled it. That app was not worth being unable to use Bluetooth hands-free in my car.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] smo69:
I take that back. Suddenly, it's not working anymore, so I'm more inclined to believe there's something wrong with the phone speaker/mic suddenly hanging with apps other than the actual phone app. The Visual Voicemail app only exposed that there was an issue with this, but the app itself did not seem to be the problem.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] DIOmenik:
Same problem here, I am on Oreo (final beta). Have you managed to find a solution?
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] RASTAVIPER:
Just saying.

When was the last time that you had a factory reset?
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] DIOmenik:
A few months ago, when moving back from Oreo to Nougat for battery problems.

If you can confirm that on the last (stable?) Oreo release you are not facing this issue, I would really appreciate it and proceed with a factory reset.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] RASTAVIPER:
I am not at any stable version.

And have tried many different bt sets.

Also never had battery problems at Oreo

Hello, so I am currently rooted on the January update and decided to update to June's update and reroot.

I downloaded the official full image and tried to flash it using the flash-all command. But I am getting this error I MOST be doing something working. Any ideas or a quick guide on how to update and root June's update !?

Thank you

Did you extract the files first from the factory image and place them in your SDK/platform-tools folder?

Do you have all the files you extracted from the factory image inside the platform-tools folder?? Especially the large secondary zip that has all the images?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] michaelbsheldon:
If still no luck, download this from Google: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip

Download another copy of June update in case first was corrupt.

Place all Tools files plus unzipped June update files into one folder. Make sure your usb cable is an oem Pixel cable.

Use Windows command prompt instead of Powershell. Type fastboot devices with phone connected in fastboot mode.

If you get a serial number, double click on flash-all.bat. It oughta run fine.

It sure looks right, and I know you've done this before. What happens when you shut the phone off and then enter bootloader manually. I know it shouldn't matter, but what the heck. That's exactly what I do every month, I never boot into fastboot from the OS and adb ?

I see this has already been resolved but I'm getting a similar issue when trying to flash the June update.

It states my bootloader version is TMZ12bb and that it requires TMZ12g in order to update??

I've tried downloading a fresh copy of the June update, fresh copy of platform tools, booting into the bootloader manually (from being shutdown). I'm using the flash-all bat file with -w removed. Maybe I should try flashing the May update again?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Badger50:
Is your bootloader fully unlocked? You ran BOTH unlocking commands I'm assuming?

You've extracted the files from the factory image and placed them inside the SDK/platform-tools folder?

Guys, i'm on flash kernel and magisk 16.4

1- flashed June security update with -w removed

2- flashed flash kernel

3- flashed magisk

Magisk keeps on going missing and I need to install the apk manually. At times I boot i get root, sometimes no root .

Does anyone know how to fix this?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] TyTyMania:
Boot loop issue

I'm having the same issue as Phantom but a little different. My phone is now stuck in a boot loop. I cannot unlock the critical bootloader. It keeps reporting failed. The only difference is that it says I'm running TMZ12g and that it requires TMZ12bb. Opposite of what Phantom was getting. Thanks in advance for any help.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Badger50:
Have you tried flashing magisk again? Sometimes i'll flash it twice in a row after an update just to make sure it installs properly. Also, it's not a bad idea to flash your kernel, then reboot back to twrp, then flash magisk. This is a superstition from AZ Biker, however, it's also been proven right several times :good::good:

---------- Post added at 10:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:34 AM ----------

Did this occur after you tried fastbooting something, or when you tried to unlock_critical?? ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] TyTyMania:
I figured it out. I was trying to flash the May factory image instead of the June factory image. Since I didn't have the critical bootloader unlocked it would not flash. I was actually running the newer bootloader and trying to flash older software. And yes this happened when I was trying to unroot my phone and install OTA updates. Thanks.

Glad you figured it out. Well done! :good::good:

I had all sorts of strange root failurs last month when I tired to use 16.4. Went with 16.0 and "fastboot reboot-bootloader" after every single flash, even before rebooting entore phone, and I was done in like 5 minutes this time, all root stuff working. I don't trust 16.4!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] geicogecko:
I'm also having an issue with the JUN update, but a different issue. I'm able to update just fine. The issue comes after installing the patched boot.img from Magisk. It just sits on the Google splash screen with the bar. Stock boot.img boots just fine.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] joshw0000:
I'm probably not much help but I've had issues flashing the full image since I got this phone. I've only ever had success flashing it if I use one of those all-in-one tools. So I typically just download the OTA, boot to stock recovery, and adb side load the OTA.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] CyberpodS2:
Hey bro, finally getting around to doing the June update. I see some different folks are having issues with June. Did you see anything different than previous months? Also, are you running the June,2018 (28.0.0) Platform tools? You and I have basically the same setup so figured I'd ask before pulling the trigger and this thread is a good one to hijack since others will come across it also. Lol
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Badger50:
Just the same ol thing I always do my friend. Disable my screen lock and sub themes. Fastboot the factory image without the -w to both slots. Let it boot up each time. Then fastboot into twrp, do the twrp, kernel, magisk thingy. Boot up and restore my screen lock and subs, and we're good ???
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] simplepinoi177:
You may have heard and be aware of this; but in case you don't, apparently there is a lag caused by the June update between the fingerprint unlock and the phone/screen actually unlocking...

But various custom kernels (Flash for one) have/are already addressing this and it's in their betas...

I use Magisk on my Pixel 2 XL for a few months, i've done many updates but now facing the tmz12bb that I need tmz20 bootloader or something like that...

I usually use the flash-all without the -w to keep my data and settings... Thank's
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Badger50:
Yes. Unlocking critical will definitely wipe your phone. If you've done updates with the -w removed before, then your already critical unlocked or else the bootloader wouldn't update. Are you sure you've downloaded the correct factory image? :confused:
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] CoOlSlY:
Thank for the reply Badger50...

Well, yes, i've done many flash-all (I would say dec, jan, feb, mar, apr and today may and wanted june). My last update was april so gave a shot to the june update, said I needed TMZxx and I had TMZ12bb. Updated to may, went well, tried the june again, same error message... How could I tell I have download the right one? I successfully installed may OPM2.171019.029.B1, trying to install taimen-opm2.171026.006.c1 and get the "You need bootloader TMZ12g, current bootloader TMZ12bb"
