[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime Questions & Answers] toplesID:
I have a problem with my device.

1. I can not install applications from anywhere, What I mean is when the install process takes a long time then suddenly restart itself.

2. After restarting, my device stops at the mi logo. I do not know if it's called brick or bootlop

Previously on my device there are:

1 TWRP

2 Root

3 xposed

I have done wipe via twrp but the problem keeps it going again

Now I have done a fresh install using china developer rom via mi flash tool. What can I do if the problem happens again?

Thank you in advance for all of you, who can answer all the problems that exist on my device.

Thank you for all opinion. I though about app that is only for schedule sms because I satisfied with stock message apk.

If you are using Textra do you uninstall or turn off stock sms apk?

[Security Discussion] j4nn:
Please check the thread I've started on sony xperia xz1 compact forum discussing vulnerabilities that could be used to implement temp root exploit.

Currently the most promising seems to be the CVE-2017-7533: race between inotify_handle_event() and vfs_rename() - which is hw independent bug in linux kernel that could be used for any device having a kernel with that bug - may be very useful for oreo android to get temp root (without use of official vendor unlock).

The thread is here:

[DEVONLY][XZ1c] exploits for temp root to backup drm keys

There are also other vulnerabilities considered that were checked as not fixed in a very early xz1 oreo firmware to which the device can be downgraded.
[Security Discussion] j4nn:
Got some progress with the inotify/rename vulnerability exploit - please see this post.

I would appreciate any comments, particularly from anybody with knowledge of linux kernel internals.

Thanks.
[Security Discussion] j4nn:
Just not to have the previous question open here, the problem asked about had been solved already.

A temp root for xperia xz1c via inotify/rename vulnerability shall be available soon in the linked xz1c thread.
[Security Discussion] j4nn:
I have finished my implementation of inotify/rename kernel exploit which achieves temp root on android oreo of sony xperia XZ1 Compact with compatibility for variants of XZ1 and XZ Premium.

It allows TA partition (drm keys) backup before bootloader unlock and restore of it after unlock, making camera fully functional on unmodified stock firmware with unlocked bootloader.

You may check the [XZ1c/XZ1/XZp] temp root exploit to backup drm keys implemented thread for more details.
[Security Discussion] lebigmac:
Hello @j4nn does your Oreo vulnerability work on HTC U11 (running Android 8.0.0 Kernel 4.4 security patch December 2017) by any chance or is there a universal Oreo vulnerability out there ? I need to backup some files which are inaccessible to the user off my HTC U11 before I can unlock the bootloader which in turn will erase all my data... Thanks! (y)

Sadly I made the huge mistake of not unlocking the bootloader as soon as purchasing the device :(
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] wegiwegi:
hmmm, get into download mode, reflash with Odin the exact firmware you had before the upgrade, using home CSC, and all the others of course, co, black, ap see if that sort that out

---------- Post added at 11:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:30 PM ----------

oops, bloddy autocorrect, cp, bl, ap and csc_home All 4
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] mindlight:
But wont that blow all my data and apps like a Factory Reset?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] wegiwegi:
no it won't, if you flash CSC_home it will keep your data, if you flash CSC it will delete everything
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] mindlight:
Ok... fingers crossed...

Files in my firmware-zip I downloaded from Sammobile:

AP_G930FXXU2DRC6_CL12365438_QB17330639_REV00_user_low_ship_meta.tar.md5

BL_G930FXXU2DRC6_CL12365438_QB17330639_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5

HOME_CSC_NEE_G930FNEE2DRB5_CL13061583_QB16917331_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5

Versions according to logcat run during bootloop:

PDA Version: G930FXXU2DRC6

CSC Version: G930FNEE2DRB5

The only thing that makes me go "hmmmmm" is the BL. Is that the Boot Loader?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] wegiwegi:
yes, bl is bootloader

don't worry, it should work, home_csc remember put all the others in the right place all 4 at the same time
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] mindlight:
Edit:Boxes are there to be clicked. I suspect that clicking all boxes except AP would a) explain why 4GB AP binary was lightning fast and b) I shouldn't be let near computers :D

Will be back with an "Edit2" in a short while.

Ok. Ran it and it was done in like secs (no way it pumped 4GB image over USB that quick). Then it went to blue screen claiming erase and patching... and then reboot and here we are... Glowing Samsung Logo.

The blue firmware update screen, what exactly is it updating? Small code that handles firmware upgrade of low level stuff like bootloader?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] wegiwegi:
ok 2DRC6 is the 28.03.18 release

the previous one to that one is

2BRB6 from 13.03.18 both have modem version 2

previous to those ones are v1 so you won't be able to downgrade to them

so download 2BRB6 and flash the 4 files together and see how it goes
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] mindlight:
You mean flash the files I listed?

I did that, including the AP this time, and it is looping still. :(
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] wegiwegi:
what do you mean ap this time....

you have to flash All 4 files at the same time, tick the boxes, ap, bl, cp and CSC, through Odin

which Odin version are you using?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] mindlight:
1. I made a stupid mistake the first time I flashed (after getting your advice) and specified all 4 files in Odin but clicked all but AP and flashed. I didn't see that until I hade written that it was way to fast to have transferred 4GB AP file. When I found out I ran the flash again. This time with all boxes clicked.

2. ODIN v3.13.11
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] wegiwegi:
if Odin 3.13. give the same result, flash using 3.1.1.0 hope this last flash you are doing works

---------- Post added at 02:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:17 AM ----------

ignore Odin version I said, I was thinking twrp 3.1.10 but is not your case

It's early morning here now. GOtta get 3 hours of sleep. Will try this in a couple of hours.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] mindlight:
Day 2 - Still no positive news

Ok. Reflashing with the firmware i found on Sammobile did not solve the problem. Just did it with all files (home csc and not csc) without luck. Thanks wegiwegi for having the energy and time to help me with this.

Current status

I have ADB access on and off but not fully since the phone is not all the way up f x and running package manager.

Since ADB is disconnected now and then getting logs at bootup is a bit hard.

Questions to anyone reading this:

I would like to get my hands on logswhich shows me everything that happens from the beginning of bootup all the way to a crash / reboot so thatI can see at what point the phone crashes / reboots.

Anyone got any better idea than Odin reflash existing

If I were to flash a bootloader with capability to read / export Internal "SDCard" to my inserted SDCard, would this wipe user data and data / settings is lost?

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] necik:
Hello mindlight,

have you solved the situation?

I'm in exactly the same situation as you after updating my Galaxy S7 SM-G930F with official stock firmware using OTA from G930FXXU2ERGE (Security Patch Level 2018-07-01) to G930FXXS2ERH6 (Security Patch Level 2018-08-01) - both Android 8 Oreo. It was just a small security update about 30 MB in size. After the update I'm stuck with:

led is glowing in blue in sync with the logo SAMSUNG on the screen blinking

phone becomes hot quickly

sometimes I get Optimizing apps dialog after which it restarts and gets back to blinking SAMSUNG logo

What I have tried so far:

wiping cache from recovery mode

flashing G930FXXS2ERH6 firmware (the newer) using Odin (AP, BL, CP, HOME_CSC)

flashing G930FXXU2ERGE firmware (the older) using Odin (AP, BL, CP, HOME_CSC)

But nothing helped. Is there anything else I can do to get it working without losing data or at least back up the data before factory reset? It's still in warranty so I can bring it to the service and they fix it - but of course they wipe all my data.

I tried to remember what I could have done so the update didn't end well (if it is my fault at all). The only thing I can imagine is using QuickShortcutMaker (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sika524.android.quickshortcut&hl=en) to create a link to hidden settings activity in which I could enable/disable access to mobile data/WiFi data for every application. I did some changes in this activity and it crashed often.

Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] mindlight:
Hi Necik,

No. I actually never solved the issue.

I did remember that I blocked a lot of rights in bundled Samsung apps and hid the ones that it was impossible to uninstall.

I suspect my issues are related to that.

I have also let my S7 stay connected to the charger for like 5 days in a row and it never gets by the state you describe.

I have ADB connection that works and I can retrieve logs but while I can find the words "error" and "fail" in the logs I am not able to make out what errors are critical and which are just errors that are normal and skipped.

I was in luck though because I had two S7's so I am currently using the other one while looking for a solution.

So, if you find out how to solve it or if you "solve" it with a Factory Reset, which I haven't done since I have data on mine that I want to keep, please let me know here.

If I solve it myself I will report back here.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] necik:
Yes, I did the same - and also for some Google apps. Maybe this is the culprit. But everything I did was done using publicly available settings in the phone (no hacking using adb etc.) so I would expect this should not brick the phone. Except using the hidden activity I mentioned in my previous post.

In the meantime I returned to my still functioning Nokia 6310 :). But I guess it won't suffice for a long time.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] necik:
Hello, I have given up. Flashed CSC instead of HOME_CSC, that made factory reset (contents of internal storage all gone). After that phone booted normally and I had to set everything again, like a new phone from shop.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] mindlight:
Good to know. It gives me a slight hope since it a better alternative than the phone is bricked... sadly all data is lost :P
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Questions & Answers] dmax92:
Hi fellow's, I'm trying to find a way to identify which model of the Zenfone 5 supports LTE Band 20. I heard that there are 3 different versions, a/b/c, from which 2 support LTE Band 20. How can I identify the right model? Do the have different serial numbers or anything like that? Maybe one of you can share their package (or rather the back of it) or phone information.

Or is there an app to check which Bands are supported?

Or you can ask in ASUS ZenTalk because you won't get any help here.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Questions & Answers] Ashenphoenix:
A is the eurppean version.

B is the Global version. So if you don't buy it from local carriers (or through official channels), then you'll find this global version.

Currently there is no version for USA 4G.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Questions & Answers] gtchs:
This thread mentions the 5 but just to add some more info...the 5z supports more bands as listed here (https://www.asus.com/Phone/ZenFone-5Z-ZS620KL/Tech-Specs/). All 3 versions support band 20.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Questions & Answers] GrandMasterPlank:
I'd also like to know the answer to this question. I've bought one from China and am not sure if it supports the LTE band I need. What makes it worse is that it doesn't show what whether the phone is on 2G, 3G or 4G next to the mobile signal strength on the screen. I've never seen a phone do this. Is this normal on this phone? Is there a way to get to show it on screen?
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Questions & Answers] dmax92:
Mine arrived a few days ago and the supported Bands were on the back of the package. I got a taiwanese version without Band 20/800mhz but I can identify wether I'm in 3G or 4G
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Questions & Answers] gtchs:
Do you have WiFi turned on? I don't have a sim in my 5 at the moment but I seem to recall it showing 4G, etc. next to the mobile signal strength if WiFi was turned off.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Questions & Answers] GrandMasterPlank:
Thanks guys. Yep, I had WiFi turned on. I turned it off there it was "H". WTF is that all about!! You can't see whether you're on 2G, 3G or 4G unless you have WiFi turned off??!! Terrible design decision because I have WiFi on all the time, as do most of us, and I need to know what "G" I'm on as it affects data transfer, essential for my work......anyway, I also looked on the back of the box and there it is Band 20 is missing (the most popular 4G band in the UK). Great. Another ridiculous design design decision. And to add insult to injury the fingerprint sensor is poor. Only work 6/10 times. I'd seen this on reviews but figured they weren't doing it right. I've re-entered fingerprints a few times now and makes no difference. My old Honor 7 and my lads Xiaomi phone work 10/10 and lightning quick so there's no excuse........So the phone is going back......to China. Wonder if I'll ever see my money again.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Questions & Answers] Ashenphoenix:
All my previous Android phones worked this way. You can't see 2G/3G/4G, while you're on Wi-Fi. It's not ASUS's design, it's Android default design.

Indeed Band 20 is missing if you bought the Global version. If you want B20, you have to buy it officially from your local carrier/store, because that's the one made for EU.

EDIT: Before I consufe someone, let me clarify. What I said is only true for the Zenfone 5, because all versions of the Zenfone 5Z supports B20.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Questions & Answers] Saktis_STi:
G is 2G

H is 3G

H+ is 3.5G

4G/LTE is 4G :silly:

4G/LTE-A is 4.5G

Try to switch on WiFi (disconnect LAN cable from gateway) + Mobile Data

If it's not available, flash custom ROM/stock ROM (not sure if it's available) and there is an option called 'Smart Network Switch'
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Questions & Answers] Ashenphoenix:
Ahh, indeed. So if you're on wi-fi, but there's no connection behind it, it should show a "!" next to the wi-fi and show 2/3/4G on the network. That's right, it's just not something that happens to me very often (or ever...).

But, yes that's a bug, I'll report it early tomorrow. Also the problem is different. It doesn't show 2/3/4G, because it stays on wi-fi and if I try to load a website it says it's unavailable, because I'm offline, so the bug is, that the phone doesn't switch from wi-fi to mobile network if the wi-fi doesn't have a connection.

I'm pretty sure it'll get fixed.
