[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
I doubt it's failed. Your volume down button is probably just stuck down which is why it continually boots to safe mode.

Volume up would still work.

Pop the back off and check the contact under the button isn't stuck down or get the vacuum cleaner hose with the slim attachment , place it over the button and it MAY just be enough to release it.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hdad2:
You could be right. Wouldn't know it by the feel of the button. It feels perfect. And being in safe mode won't let me load any app or anything that might tell me one way or another.

I'm trying to avoid cracking the tablet open because I'm not sure I'd be able to fix it at all once I did. Probably can't physically see any issue it might have with the button. Plus it looks like a royal pain to open. But in the end I might be forced to try.

Anyone know a root method that doesn't involve volume down?

Terrible to think that the whole device could be rendered useless by a button that isn't critical to its use. (can turn down volume by hitting vol up and then using the slider on screen)
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
You can get root no problem just by flashing a rooted Magisk boot image, but I doubt going to help with booting into safe mode as that button combo is hard coded.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hdad2:
Well if root does not allow disabling of safe mode, then I'm out of luck. But this link indicated that it could work. I've never tried so I'm just grasping at anything.

How exactly can I install a rooted boot images without the following:

- No ability to install a playstore or any other app (no magisk manager)

- Can't get TWRP to install (presumably because this is now blocked by latest firmware?? Not sure but it fails for me following the Odin instructions I find here and elsewhere) I think this requires vol down button - at least all the instructions call for it after flashing TWRP with Odin

I have ADB and Odin at my disposal, but I can't seem to get Odin to actually install TWRP. CF Autoroot (for Nougat) does nothing either.

[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iHenry:
Stuck button

I had a friend with this issue. I was able to use a sewing machine needle to pop the button up. Make sure you tape or protect the side from scratches. Also, you can try holding down the volume up button. It's a meaningless combo so it may boot.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] zodey13:
Hey guys!

I am new to XDA, so if I have posted incorrectly here please forgive me. So I have a Samsung Galaxy S9 Live Demo Unit (SM-G960XU) and I wanted to flash a non-demo version onto the device, but I am unsure about which version to try.

So I was able to disable the Retail Mode (It will now allow Factory Reset, it won't wipe itself every few minutes, and will not play the annoying demo screensaver, etc), but the LDU version of the Android Software on this phone limits charging the battery to only 70% which is not ideal.

I have read a few forums stating that flashing the Demo Unit with the original International version of the software works, but these demo units all have the model number SM-G960X (not SM-G960XU). So I was wondering if anybody has done this on the G960XU device and if so did you use a SM-960F ROM or SM-906U ROM? Also, if you had any suggestions or ideas, please let me know! I am worried about which version to choose as I do not want to brick the phone.

No, the device is not stolen or illegal. The phone was purchased legitimately and legally from a store who no longer needed the demo unit. Yes, I know the phone does not have a modem and will never be able to make calls or act as a normal phone. I was able to get the phone just to experiment with and to have fun exploring Android.

Any suggestions or help you guys can provide is greatly appreciated!

By all logic you should flash U (US), U1 (US Unlocked, slower updates but wider CSC), 0 (Glogal Snapdragon Unlocked, wider CSC but not for North America) or W (Canada) firmware and you'll be good to go. Just install AIDA64 and check which CPU you have. I suspect you have the Snapdragon, so the said ROMs will work. ONLY the said ROMs. Flashing F or N will brick your phone. But if you have the Exynos, flash F (N is for Korea)

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bobyouall:
I have been fighting with this phone forever. It had Temasek Cyanogen 13 rom on it and everything worked fine. I wiped it and tried to install the Liquid Remix rom and I kept getting a restart when it attempted to connect the SIM card. I flashed a new modem and it was able to boot, but it never did detect the SIM. I tried the 8.1 Lineage rom, I tried flashing other modems and just about every other fix I could find. I even went back to the previous custom rom and still get the same issue. I am at my wits end! Anyone have a clue what I'm doing wrong? Verizon Note 3.

Whats weird is that the Samsung Info app now shows my phone model is SM-N9005 when I know it is SM-N900V.

Yesterday I used Magisk Manager on my Samsung Galaxy S8+ and installed the Magisk APK. All installed just fine until my device did it's routine thing of rebooting. After that a screen came up, as I am sure you all are cringing because you know what I am going to say next...."Phone has been flashed with unauthorized software & is locked" along with little red text in the upper left hand corner saying "Secure Check Fail: Boot". So I didn't panic , I decided to reboot into what I thought I had was "ODIN Mode" download, Nope , I had everything else but that red hot text of power is GONE. I have looked around google for hours trying to not only find solutions to the overall problem but to see if anyone else had lost their ODIN Mode as well and what could be done to fix it , only to be plagued with everyone saying they are stuck in ODIN Mode. DAMN, I wish I had ODIN still. Ughhh Thor is so going to ban hammer my fantasies for this. Anyway, are there any solutions to what I described? I would so be appreciative.

Hi, so I tried installing the SM-930U on my SM-930A. Idk if there were any prerequisites that I failed to follow, but now I cannot use the phone. It will boot to the OEM setup screen. I can get as far as the Google sign-in then the phone reboots. It happens non-stop. I can get into the bootloader. I can get into recovery mode, which initially says "No Command" with a picture of a dead Android guy.

Hello,

my name is Markus, i think about to build up a database, where devs can upload and post their ROMS. I think about this, because it is very difficult to find here a rom with features wich i want to have. I will build up only a database, with no forum, the support and things like this, schould stay here.

But I think this is only possible, when i find some devs wich have interest to use an offer like this.

What think you about this? A Database where you can search and filter roms. For example you can search for special applikations, wich schould be in the rom or a special language.

Android 8.1.0 - Accessibility Service for "Greenify - Automated Hibernation" Issue

Running

Xiaomi Mi A1

Android One

Stock ROM

8.1.0

Issue

Under accessibility service, "Greenify - Automated Hibernation" doesn't stay on, already gave it adb permissions in order for it to stay on, also removed it from "Battery Optimization".

Issue always occurs once there is an app that is to be greenified and you let your smartphone turn off/power button off/manual hibernation. Tried it with settings "Automated Hibernation" Off and still would occur, hopefully someone can shed a light on this.

Attached is the screenshot of the Accessibility Service for Greenify - Automated Hibernation in the ON position and OFF position after several minutes.

Hello friends..(I am a noob )

Actually I was running on Oreo 8.1 lineage os 15.1 but then I wanted to flash oxygen os 5.0.5 stable ROM I searched for the thread on XDA and then followed it..

Here is what happened:-

1---First I clean flashed the ROM (oxygen os) using TWRP 3.2.3-0 successfully..

But then when I tried flashing magisk 17.1 my phone RESTARTED in between of magisk installation process...??

2--Then I tried it using Blu spark recovery

The same issue occured..

3-- then I tried flashing firmware 1st then OOS

Same issue occurred now my phone vibrated vigorously..

4--when I tried to just flash OOS

It again restarted...

5--Now I want to know how can I flash oxygen os with magisk using TWRP recovery ????

I had tried this process using magisk 14.3, 16,17,17.1

But none worked:(

Plz help me..
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] RASTAVIPER:

How did u flash OOS using Blu spark ??
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] deetailed:
2 days ago I just did the same (flash firmware, OOS 5.0.5 stable then magisk using TWRP 3.2.3)

At first I flashed magisk v16, then updated to v17, and here's where I encountered a problem, it keeps boot looping at the boot animation

But I solved it by just wiping data and repeat flashing the ROM & everything else

Just make sure none of the files are corrupt I guess, and wipe clean everything including internal storage (after backing up)
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] RASTAVIPER:
There is no reason to wipe internal files during flashing of new roms and Magisk latest version is 17.1, not 17 which was causing bootloops.

So your post is totally wrong and better next time be careful of what you are writing.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Incanity:
OP said something about a clean flash, so he probably already cleared his data. So it shouldn't be a big deal if he does it again.

When changing from LOS to OOS you should always clear data anyway.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] blanco2701:
I think you might not be wiping everything before flashing. If you have a computer, I would follow this steps (assuming that you already backed up all your photos, documents, etc):

1- Download the factory image to your PC

2- Wipe EVERYTHING in twrp (through the advanced option)

3- Reboot to recovery

4- Connect your phone to the PC and send the factory image zip to the phone just like with any other usb drive.

5- Flash the file through twrp and inmeadiately flash latest magisk

6- Reboot to recovery and do a factory reset through twrp.

7- Reboot and be happy.

One or more of those steps might be unnecesary, but I always do it like that and it always works...

Have fun!
