I know how to use dload, but how I can boot into dload mode with TWRP installed and bootloader locked?
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] dinoderda:
Dload works no matter what,at least I was able to enter it when I bricked my phone,even when I completely screwed up my recovery partition,so you should be good. Try using it with the service firmware I left you.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] luigifan3:
Now I have downloaded the service firmware so how I am going to flash it now? Like do I extract the UPDATE.APP and flash it in TWRP or what? You said that flash UPDATE.APP, but am I going to do that in dload mode or TWRP?
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] dinoderda:
In dload,make sure you make a folder in the root of your sdcard called dload and put that in there.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] luigifan3:
Now I have the UPDATE.APP in my dload folder, but how I boot to the dload mode now?
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] dinoderda:
Volume Up + Volume Down + Power Button.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] luigifan3:
I tried that, it just boots into TWRP

EDIT: I got to dload, but it says software installation failed
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] dinoderda:
Hm,make sure you used the service firmware I left you,but if you are sure you did,your last resort is DC Phoenix which you will need to pay 20 euros.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] RAR1991:
if you have TWRP installed could you make a backup of your oeminfo partition so we could provide you the right firmware to recover your device
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] luigifan3:
Ok, but does it provide the right info if I have flashed different oeminfo.img?
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] luigifan3:
I've tried a different firmware for my device and now I can't get to dload anymore so does it mean that I've chosen the wrong firmware? And by the way I read somewhere that if the dload says error it can depend on the microsd card.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] luigifan3:
I tried it again with the service firmware and I got to dload and it didn't have error anymore and now I've got everything worked and my phone is unbricked :)
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] dinoderda:
great :)
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] juanmablanco:
I was stuck with a similar problem. Device bricked and flashing TWRP and restoring backups, then stock recovery and stock roms, but nothing worked until I found this post. Thanks a lot dinoderda for your help.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] luigifan3:
Hello again, I've been using the older service firmware for few months now and now I decided to install the latest service firmware after I had no success with flashing the firmware through TWRP and I downloaded the service firmware put the necessary files to the dload folder and installed it via the software update in the dialer and typing *#*#2846579#*#* and going to dload that way. It installed to 100% and then when it restarted it goes to Error Mode and it says to update the firmware again but it just loops to error mode and I cannot do anything so I think I accidentally removed some neccessary files in the dload folder but now I would need to fix the error mode loop.

Took the same photo using standard camera then using pro camera mode. The picture taken using pro mode (with no adjustments) was far superior in every way... Is this right? Do I need/should I use pro mode all the time? Thoughts...
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Rakpere:
If you really want good pics use pro mode and adjust the settings manually. More superior pics can be achieved shooting raw and editing in snapseed/lightroom. So yes its normal
[General Questions and Answers] roleris:
I just downloaded and installed newest security update (2018-06-**) for my device. After restart screen just went black. When i plug in to charge it, it vibrates, so it is working. Tried force restarting with Power + VolDown, it restarts, but you can only barely make out even the samsung logo when restarting because the backlight does not light up. I tried going into system recovery mode but i just can't see anything... What should i do now?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Find screenshots of stock recovery from devices just like yours, then use that screenshot as a guide when you boot into recovery, look at the screenshot and look at the list of options in stock recovery. You're looking for the "wipe cache partition" option. Starting from the top of the list, count down the list until you get to the factory reset option. Now boot to stock recovery, then press the volume down button the same number of times as what you counted from the screenshot. For example, in the screenshot, if "wipe cache partition" is the third option on the list, just press the volume down button three times, this should put you on the wipe cache partition option, then press power, it should do the wipe. Then try rebooting.

If that doesn't help, use the screenshot again as a guide to use the "factory reset" option" by counting down the list then pressing volume down that many times then press power to do the reset then reboot.

If that doesn't work, you'll have to flash your stock firmware via PC.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] 10pmStalker:
It was originally an unlocked model straight from Samsung. I flashed AT&T firmware so I could use some features. I figured this build number would receive OTA updates.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] babbar559:
i never got ota updates on my unlocked phone. I've installed 100% at&t stock firmware.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] 10pmStalker:
Someone told me if I register my imie and sim number with AT&T I should start getting updates. Not only did I not get the update after giving them the info, wifi calling doesn't work anymore.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] babbar559:
imei and sim is registered maybe that's why wifi calling never worked on mine. lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] kangi26:
Current stock is N950USQU5CRG7

You can dl the update.zip file HERE, copy it to your ext SD card and flash it from recovery. This WILL factory reset
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] 10pmStalker:
Haha yes, that's exactly it. I found my old Note 7 box, grabbed the sim from that and told at&t I need to update it. Wifi calling working again.

Got an error, I'm on CRF6 currently.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] sixk:
oh wait so if we got the unlocked version straight from SS and if we give ATT an ATT phone, we can have wifi calling? O_O?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] sixk:
Do you have ATT Rom on it or it the stock Rom from Samsung?

Also, can I ask what you told them to change the IMEI?

I called and they were telling me I can't change the IMEI and that even if we do change it, it would only work on the previous phone... which seems bogus...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] 10pmStalker:
Was originally unlocked direct from Samsung, I flashed AT&T software.

I just flashed the update on my own, I don't know if I'll ever get OTA.

I had no problem changing IMEI. It had my old S7 edge IMEI, I used chat to change it to my current Note 8. Then quickly had them switch it to Note 7 IMEI once WIFI calling wouldn't work. They asked no questions both times. Just told them I upgraded phones and need to update my IMEI. I've never called them, just used the chat feature.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] sixk:
Thanks Stalker...

Now I have to decide if I want to flash ATT firmware or not...

Hate having to re-setup my phone haha.

So you just used Odin and the ATT firmware correct?

FYI I have been getting ATT OTA updates on my stock SS direct Note 8.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] 10pmStalker:
Yep, used Odin and the ATT firmware. I just back everything up using smart switch external storage feature and backed up my Nova Launcher settings. Only thing I don't like is I have to tweak all the settings over again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] sixk:
One last question.

Did you need to give them the old SIM#?

I have info in my email before returning my Note 7 but nothing on the SIM card # and wonder if that might give me some trouble later on for wifi calling.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] 10pmStalker:
Didn't give them any SIM info. Just IMEI
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] sixk:
Cool... I am going to give them the IMEI for my old Note 7 with stock Unlocked firmware.

Just to see if that works... if not I am going to have to flash

Thanks for the info Stalker

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] 10pmStalker:
Could you explain this a bit? I don't know what any of that means
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] power_book:

Did you flash your phone with AT&T firmware including home CSC or just part of AT&T firmware?

You have to flash complete AT&T firmware to get AT&T OTA.

Flashed it including home CSC. Wanted everything so I could use wifi calling since that was the whole point in the first place.

Hey. Is there anyone who has this phone trawling this forum? If so is this device Widevine L1 DRM certified? It's one of the little things stopping me from buying this phone. You can't watch Netflix or Amazon Prime Video in HD without it.

One of the ways to check is to download the DRM Info app from the Play Store. Check to the right of 'Security Level'.

For example, my Mi A1 which is only Widevine L3 certified:

[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EL MAXERO:
Hello.

I had my z3 compact on MM and then I rooted it and installed the now-Discontinued ROM by Wajk Wich was pretty stable and everything works.

Then when Nougat came I tried Lineage 14.1 by tomascus Wich was all good and new things, but the hotspot didn't work.

After that I tired the https://xdaforums.com/z3-compact/orig-development/oreo-unofficial-omnirom-t3696536"]Omni Oreo 8.1 by devil188[/URL] that had more features and new stuff than those two.

Of course I liked it but I'm missing the stability 6.0.6 had... Wich everything at least worked as they should.

I now have GPS issue(maximum accuracy is 1KM... Always shows a radius instead of pinpointing me, can't navigate with that in cities) and hotspot issue (can't share my internet to my other devices) and can't use the wifi (finds nothing) so I wanted to get back to 6.0.6.

I tired flashing the 6.0.6 but the flashtools said "bundle invalid" and my device was "unknown" and I had to select it manually.

I tired a lot and I always end up at nothing ... So I flashed the 6.0.6 twrp and them wiped everything and installed the flash able ZIP, and got bootloop, waited an hour and many restarts but nothing happened.

So I tired the Nougat and finally that came up, but still same issues (a bit better thought, wifi works at least).

So how to revert back to 6.0.6? Flashing the .ftf didn't worked, device is unknown... And "bundle invalid" in flash tools (tried the latest and 9.18 version).

Have anyone gone through such a process?

Any ideas?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kolraby:
Emma

* You can download Emma a flash tool from Sony.

* When you start Emma and it shows up a login screen, then you have to make a new file in the install folder which is called: "customization.ini" and its content: "developerworld/enable = true" After adding this file the Program should start normaly.

* Then you press volume down 5s and connect the cable to your computer.

* Emma should recognise your phone and give you a flashable stock rom.
