I'm giving up on my "flaky" 915P. It appears to be bricked and I don't have the time to try the various fixes outlined here.

It is in excellent physical condition except for some minor screen burn, and should be worth "a couple bucks" for parts.

Is there any way to protect my personal info on the device in case a buyer is able to power it up again?

Hi, I'm a beginner,

and I have recently bought this radio.

I ask you what are the apps you need to have installed on the radio.

I have a question to ask:

How can I have the AVLS (Automatic Volume Limiter System) function?

Where is it? There is?

When I connect my Iphone in hotspot and bluetooth do not hear from the phone or radio the notifications of messages and what'app, how resolve it?.

When I listen a radio station and travel changes frequency, there are no problems listening, but when I select a stored station that has now switched frequency, the radio does not automatically search for it.

Thanks so much!

Holy $hit. You screwed the pooch man. Damn.

Contact GSLEON3, if anyone can help, he can. Good luck. I know I cant help you but I wanted to post to give you the name of someone who can, maybe.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] GSLEON3:
You sir are an IDIOT! :rolleyes: (sorry couldn't resist) :p

I reported the change in task 2a months ago, the info is readily available in the forum & also in the wiki.

If you reset before flashing a new SPL bootloader after a task 2a command, you end up with a shinny new brick!

As of this point, both myself & Jocky are working on trying to find a remedy for this.

If your device is security unlocked I can help you

NOW!

However, If you never ran the security unlocker, you'll just have to wait until I or Jocky, or anbody for that mater figures out a way to flash thru OEMSBL using radata commands.

You are now stuck in OEMSBL. & again unless security unlocked there is no solution yet.

I can't even count the number of times I have posted the fact the every SPL, Including HardSPL, for every different model can & do have different commands & subsequently different outcomes.

I believe Jocky is the closest to being able to recover this type of brick, he's also a hell of a lot smarter than I, but I also know he's not there yet.

If you are security unlocked, contact me & I'll help you out, otherwise, wait patiently.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] SkizZO:
You're ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!!!!

...the fact is that i have very little time to spent into forums reading, and i cannot follow all topics :( (the conseguences are here

if for security unlocked you mean the HardSPL installed, i have it but... something say me that isn't enough
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] GSLEON3:
NO EXCUSES! I have a full time career, a part time business witrh a partner, an eight year old daughter, & nine & ten year old step sons. Take your phone into the library, AKA: restroom, & read.

At least the wiki, where all of the most important stuff is. There isn't that much there, only really important things, especially in the upgrading section.

As for Security Unlocker, NO that is not HardSPL. Coming from another forum you should know that.

HardSPL is CID unlock. See here for security unlocker: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=361236

Although, I'd have to say from what I've heard, this is unlikely to have been done.

I do believe it will be possible to fix, & in the near future, just not quite yet. :( Sorry, don't have better news for you.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] SkizZO:
what a BAD NEWS !!!!

i hope there is a way to use a driver to make windows recognize the phone in bootloader....

"SPL start start block=288, total block of CE=1760

Write 0xFF start page=0x4800, total page=0x1B800

SPL version and MFG TAG are same, skip it.

restore SPL OK"

wow what a bug ... I guess SPL didn't get restored because it skipped the reflash - they must be using the common code to flash it (same code used when it is an NBH), so the version check fails, as the SPL i assume is a hardspl and so won't let overwrite itself.

so this must be a bug that only hardspl has.

anyway this is an MFG hardspl yes? then before task 2a'ing you'd be better off unpatching the overwrite protection then maybe 2a won't kill your kaiser after all.

here's how :

you need to issue several commands.

1. task 32

2. to verify we are at the right place (this command list will only work if the hardspl base is the same MFG version I'm thinking of) :

three commands:

mw 8C019AE4 1

mw 8C019B00 1

mw 8C019B1C 1

all of them should return E1A00000.

3. if the previous step went well, to actually unpatch write protection two more commands:

mw 8C019AD4 1 0A000023

mw 8C019AE4 1 EA00001C

ok now that should have unpatched the overwrite protection, so final conclusions:

1) either I'm right and this fixes task 2a and it won't be lethal now

2) or I'm wrong and it has another cause for being so fatal, but in that case, after doing the task 2a, you should be able to flash an SPL into nand even if it is empty - as long as you don't reset the phone the SPL is still in RAM to download another SPL.

P.S: please let me know if task 2a did kill non hardspl 'ed kaisers too

P.S.2: if second step doesn't return E1A00000 and the spl *is* MFG let me know
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] -IK-:
I feel for you :(

Thought I had killed my device after using old SPL software from my Trinity on my Kaiser thinking it would work. Yes, I didn't read enough info.

The reflash got to 18% and hung then stopped...Luckily the device resumed to bootloader but it wouldn't accept any OEM ROM I threw at it.

Read for about 4 hours and found out about mtty and a recovery task that finally returned the device to a hard reset state. I almost wept when it worked :D

Ok I know I'm the ultimate idiot, however while trying to get rid of the Radio from Hell, I accidentally task 2a-ed my phone.

now I see many tips on how to solve this, I have Vista and XP, however the Xp computers don't seem to like the driver for the phone neither does Vista.

continuing on

I got the drivers installed and changed the ports

(i get no usb connection though, just through the com ports)

now when I try to type commands, I get errors (I'm typing them in right)

or it becomes unresponsive.

any help in this would be appreciated.

[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrispyK:
Hey i just got myself a m9 and wanted to root it.

So i searched the forums here, and half the tutorials, info and links that i can find seem to be outdated.

Between the bootloader unlocking not even having the same name, the links not working... There's no fastboot option, and the info as to what you should do in that situation is, zero.

Would be nice if someone knew a bit more about this and could make an updated version for an actual m9 with android 7.0.

New around here, sorry if i'm not supposed to post here, a lot of this seems a bit confusing and frustrating imo :P

Ps: i've downloaded everything i could find and still nothing to do, even fastboot won't work.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flippy498:
Er, you saw the ReadMe thread that is pinned at the top of this section, didn't you?
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrispyK:
Just being desperate and looking for any help. Kinda tired of reading, searching and finding one outdated post after the other, read through 50 pages for nothing etc... If someone could just point me in the right direction. It would be easier. But it seems like people mostly get annoyed by posts that ask questions and rather tell them to read a readme, or nothing. But no help. I'm sorry. I'm just too lazy to read a readme in every "discussion" to see if this is the right place or is there a more appropriate place to post this troubleshooting? help? q&a? htc? one m9? how many do i have to read? you get the idea? But you probably know so much about everything that this seems normal to you and you just don't understand how everyone else doesn't know as much as you. And how someone could dare post a question in the wrong discussion.

Either way, i'm going to ask to get this post deleted since it's useless :) I might make a updated tutorial with working links some day.

Cheers, thanks for the great input though...

A simple "Hey man just letting you know that you're posting in the wrong place, you should post it here *insert link*, good luck with your phone ;) " wouldn't be too much or too hard to ask for? instead of some arrogant "read the readme, ok bye" like thnx for nothing.

Maybe you didn't bother reading this part and thus you didn't have any "understanding" for my situation "New around here, sorry if i'm not supposed to post here, a lot of this seems a bit confusing and frustrating imo :P"
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flippy498:
Which of the links in the ReadMe thread isn't working and which part of it is outdated? It contains everything you need to know. That's why it's pinned at the top of the general and the Q&A section (in contrast to all the other outdated guides you mentioned) and that's why it's (literally) called ReadMe thread. You asked for someone writing an up to date guide and I asked whether you saw the existing one. That's it.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] DjGeraldo:
My note 8 has never been near or in any water, not even rain drops have hit it. Now randomly it will pop up and say water detected in usb port. Which doesn't really effect me being able to use the phone, I use a wireless charger anyway. It's just annoying that it keeps popping up from time to time. Sometimes it will go weeks without doing it, one time it popped up and the phone rebooted itself and the warning was gone when it restarted. I talked to sprint about it and they basically showed me the door telling me to go to samsung who was equally useless. The first time it happened it wouldn't go away for days and I finally did a factory reset. That worked for the last 3 months, now all of a sudden it's back again.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Jammol:
Check that your port doesn't have any excess lint in it. Also what software version are you on. I think there's one with a bug dealing with the port and causing the device to reboot.

This.

And you can't downgrade either, so be sure before pulling the trigger :)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] DjGeraldo:
I don't really care about root, I just want to make sure I flash the right one. Anyone know where I can make sure I find the right one for sprint? And I'm guessing I have to use Odin for it right?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] sefrcoko:
Go to sammobile or updato.com, put it your model number, and you should be able to find the latest firmware for your specific model there. Yes you would need to use Odin (be sure to read up on the instructions in the other threads and be familiar with the process before jumping into it...saves time in the end :)).
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] DjGeraldo:
Okay awesome, I'm fairly familiar with Odin, used it on my note 3 back in the day and it's what I used to get the note 8 to Oreo. I was really just concerned with what version I could go to and from, I know in the note 3 days you couldn't skip certain updates. So you were stuck sitting there updating your phone like 3 times through Odin just to get to the version you wanted.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] j_hansen:
the moisture in charging port is a know error since S8/S8+ and Samsung is well aware of it.

I had it on my first Note8 and there's a few things you can try, cleaning the charging port with gently with alcohol wipes - delete cache in USB in system apps - factory reset -

But best option is to back up everything and flash latest software using Odin.

I ended up just sending mine in for warranty repair as it was only 2 months old

Hello everyone!

On the lockscreen there are per default 2 apps, the camera and the phone dailer. The camera can be accessed without any issue but to open the phone dialer the password has to be entered. On my old phone (galaxy s5+) you could just open the phone dialer without having to enter any password. This was very handy since this way other people could call my ICE contacts if something had happend to me or something like that. Now they can't because the password is in the way. I could not find a setting to fix this problem did anyone else?

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] MayankMathur:
I was on the latest MIUI (9.something), boot-loader unlocked, redwolf recovery (v27), last seen battery was ~50% charged (before going off).

And, I was using my phone. Suddenly screen goes off and nothing comes up. I tried to restart, it doesn't work.

Finally I googled the problem and tried these things:

1) Press power button 5 times, then try to start the phone by long pressing power button.

Result: Screen open up, that initial screen with MIUI logo, I keep the button pressed, screen goes off and instantly starts again with booting started. Now, as soon as boot finishes, that *low-power* sound comes and it switches off.

2) Press power button 5 times, then try to start the phone by long pressing power button. This time when the screen comes up first time, I press (vol-up + power) to boot to recovery.

Result: As expected. That screen goes off and instantly another screen comes up with the recovery splash screen. Recovery comes up. There on the top, it shows two weird stats: (CPU temp 105 deg C, battery 0%).

3) Press power button 5 times, then try to start the phone by long pressing power button. This time don't press anything on the first screen.

Result: The screen goes off and that's it.

Some weird symptoms worth knowing:

1) Whenever I plug the charging cable (either with charger or, laptop) it just do not boot, neither to system nor to recovery.

2) The micro-USB port is damaged I guess. Last time (a day before all this), I tried to connect phone to my laptop but the socked seemed lose. It was just not connecting, rather fluctuating a bit.

3) Whenever I plug the charging/data cable (either with charger or, laptop) while booting or, while in recovery it suddenly switches off.

First, I'd agree on the first commenter and support you taking the device to any android service center to check whether your battery or phone got fried. If it's done and proved nothing is wrong with my battery/phone I'd buy an EDL deep flash cable (I bought one for dirt cheap, 5 dollars) and try to solve my problem via deep flash, edl emergency download mode.
