[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fixided:
When I went into fastboot mode it says its unlocked.

(I don't remember unlocking it, but I might have and just forgotten)

I still can't flash TWRP because it'll give me FAILED: remote command not allowed.

The internet says that it may be because of FRP still being locked??

So I have to restore it back to factory settings.

I'm afraid it'll relock my bootloader too.

Since the phone is already unlocked, is it possible to retrieve the unlock code?

PS. Phone is still in stock condition. I don't have root, nor a custom recovery.

Hi everyone, i've had a good luck and i've found this device yesterday, but when i'm putting my simcard in, it says to me that phone is blocked and on the list of stolen devices.

Is there any way how to pass thru this issue? What is necessary to change? IMEI...

You can contact me @ zimoush@gmail.com

Thank you very much in case of any support...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] BBM-Lee:
Go into "Owner Information" and return it to the owner...

Best way to fix this problem
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] habitat.dnb:
This is best way for the guy, who lost it. I would like to hear about some other option... I've lost a phone as well and do you think that someone else was taking care of me? So i can say that i've got my money back :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] FloatingFatMan:
No... That doesn't sound like good luck, not in the slightest. That actually sounds more like someone sold you a stolen phone; or you found a lost one.

Either way, the phone has been blocked. It's no good as a phone anymore.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] FloatingFatMan:
I doubt anyone where will help you unclock a stolen phone... The original owner might be a member here!

Allright, hereby i'm getting mostly responses for the things, which were not necessary to write.

It's weird that everyones recommendation is about to give that phone back, but confess to yourself - if you'll be in my position - would you return that phone back?

Just wanna know if there is any way or option to get it running...

I can't believe that you would actually think someone would help you from this forum. Go back under the rock from whence you came. You are a worthless piece of ****. I first thought you had balls the size of a wrecking ball and then it hit me. You dont have any at all. You are just a ****ing tard.:mad:

Simple response: yes

In depth response: are you a ****ing retard or something? if you went and spent 300 quid odd on a phone would you be happy if some wanker happened to find it and decided not to return it?

As P1Tater said, do us all a favour and die.

I also thought drdingo21's response was quite appropriate

It would also help if you actually tried speaking english.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Teppic24:
Yes, because I wouldn't be able to get it working. What's the use in having something that doesn't work?

Either return the phone to it's rightful owner or, if the phone is branded (or it is obvious what network it belongs to) return it to the network provider. Or hand it in to the Police.

You are going nowhere asking people how to get the phone functioning again. Basically you are asking advice on how to commit an illegal act.

IT IS BLOCKED! THE ORIGINAL OWNER EITHER LOST IT OR IT WAS STOLEN FROM THEM. DO THE RIGHT THING AND RETURN IT!

And Mods - can you please either lock or delete this thread? Thanks.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] P1Tater:
What is your first language? It is obvious it's not English. Either that or I hit the nail on the head and you are a ****ing tard.:D

OK it's obvious that i'll not find "appropriate response". So please be so kind and as of now - stop with all illegal stuff like burning of authorized copies, right?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Boinng:
There's no way you can legally use this phone, to do so would be stealing both morally and legally whichever way you cut it. You don't have to be "god himself" to distance yourself from a common thief, which is exactly what you're trying to be.

Immoral and unscrupulous

What's amazing is that you continue to post replys that make no sense at all...and its not because of the fact that your english is weak, its because you are unscrupulous and immoral.

Virtually all memebers here would in fact do the right thing and give the phone back. You should do the same.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] semantic.innov:
I am currently working in a foreign country (China) and even if I am learning the language (slowly), I am a totally lost in translation...

Fortunately, translation apps are working very well : I use a local translation device to speak with people (IFLYTEK easytrans 800) and Microsoft Translator on my smartphone (when the network is good).

A lot of (chinese) local apps are showing text content as images, or a complicated combination of images and text... and in order to translate this mixed content, I use this workaround : I take a screenshot in my local app X and share it with MS-Translator which shows me the translation on top of the screenshot. Then I delete the screenshot and go back in my local app X to continue my reading. It works very well but takes me a long time when I have to repeat 20 times the same process :crying:

I am aware of the news that : Now, Google Translation is automatically integrated in a lot of Android Apps. But (1) this is not happening in my (chinese) local apps (never!) and (2) I think that Google Translation feature inside the app will only translate the text and not the images. Therefore, I have no other solution than continuing to use my (time consuming) workaround.

MY QUESTION IS : Is there some Android "bridge"-App that could automate my workaround by creating a bridge between my app X and MS-Translator ? That is to say : translating what I currently see in my app X by sending a screenshot to MS-Translator ?

More precisely, let's consider a user reading a content shown in an app X, this "bridge"-App could behave the following way...

When the "bridge"-App is running in the background :

•

if the user takes a screenshot :

1) the "bridge"-App listens to the right combination of buttons on the smartphone (for me Galaxy A5 : the fingerprint button + on/off button) then it captures the result (i.e. the picture) of the "screenshot" event happening in the app X

2) then the "bridge"-App shares the screenshot with MS-Translator, and opens the MS-Translator app to show the translation to the user (the MS-Translator app gets the focus and is shown on top of the app X)

•

if the user has finished to read the translation

, it will close MS-Translator : at this time, the "bridge"-App will capture the "close" event in the MS-Translator App, and :

1) the "bridge"-App delete the screenshot

2) the "bridge"-App opens the initial app X back and presents it to the user, in order for him to continue its reading (the app X gets the focus now).

etc...

If no such "bridge"-App exists, maybe someone could be motivated enough to program it ? ;) It must not be very complicated for an experienced android developer...

I would also be very interested to read the source code (I do not know anything about Android programming but I am a Java developer).

That would be very kind ! :good:

Cheers :D
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] SaberShip:
Hello all,

I'm having a strange issue with my unlocked US998 LG V30 running rooted US998 firmware. I have a desktop PC with a Gigabyte Designare Z170 Motherboard Running Windows 10. This motherboard has USB-C 3.1 ports on it and I would like to use them to charge/transfer files to and from my phone. So I'm using a USB C to C cable and when I plug it In everything works perfect, my phone will fast charge, I have MTP access, and USB debugging all work.

However, I'm noticing some odd behaviors. If I set my phone down and allow it to fall asleep, the screen will turn off and almost immediately the usb connection to the PC will drop. This connection drop kills everything even fast charging and has the fun added side effect of waking the phone up. With the phone awake a short instant after the usb connection dropped, I can see the animation near the USB plug indicating that the usb cable has been inserted and fast charging resumes (but the USB data connection takes another second or two to re-establish).

The USB data connection re-establishes just in time for the screen to turn off again and restart the cycle over, causing the USB to disconnect screen to wake etc...

Things I've tried and learned:

This doesn't happen with a USB 3.0 (C to A cable) or USB 2.0 (C to A cable) on my same desktop

USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 don't support fast charging which makes me suspect fast-charge may be playing a role in this problem somehow.

Using the phone and keeping it awake will keep the USB connection working perfectly

Enabling stay-awake setting in developer options is a viable workaround for now.

My PC's relevant drivers are up to date (Chipset Drivers, Thunderbolt Drivers, USB 3.1 Drivers) and the problem persists whether i have LG's drivers installed or not.

As my phone nears 100% and fast-charging is no longer in use the problem goes away completely. (Furthering my suspicion of fast charging playing a role in the problem)

I took a logcat (attached below) as the phone initiated sleep up to the point where USB gets disconnected and noticed the following two lines:

09-17 19:08:41.809 856 856 D vendor.lge.hardware.sysnode@1.0-impl: Writing LCD OFF to /proc/lge_power/charger/restricted_charging
09-17 19:08:41.811 1353 1571 D PowerManagerServiceEx: setRestrictedCharging Mode : LCD OFF

If any one has any insight it would be greatly appreciated. This certainly isn't a deal breaker with this phone but I do plan to develop with this phone plugged in a lot; also unsolved mysteries like this bug me. :eek:
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] SaberShip:
Problem solved.

I'm reporting back for any one that may have a similar issue in the future. I have solved my problem with the phone connected to my Desktop via USB C to USB C cable. Originally, at the time of writing this question, the problem was that the USB connection would disconnect when the phone sleeps and then reconnect causing the phone to wakeup from sleep. This was eventually made worse when I installed some custom ROMS like dotOS for example. After installing dotOS the USB C to USB C cable was completely unusable. Upon connection it would promptly disconnect and reconnect in a cycle until it was unplugged, rendering it useless for charging or file transfer.

TL/DR, the broken version of the thunderbolt 3 firmware on my motherboard was the cause of the issue. Searching for and updating the firmware (not driver update) for thunderbolt 3 solved my issue.

I have now found a solution to both issues! :victory:

The cause:

My motherboard supports Thunderbolt 3 over USB C. This would normally be a nice feature, as it would allow me to turbo charge my phone while transferring files etc... However, unknown to me at the time, the version of the thunderbolt 3 firmware (on the chip on my motherboard) was outdated. This is deeper than a driver issue, and Gigabyte (my motherboard manufacturer) doesn't advertise well that there are newer firmware versions available for this motherboard.

The solution:

My solution to the problem was easy after discovering that Gigabyte was holding out on me. For Gigabyte boards on the overview page of my particular motherboard there is a marketing section talking about thunderbolt 3 and how the motherboard supports it. What caught my eye was the phrasing "To upgrade your motherboard to Thunderbolt 3: Click Here". I thought this was odd as I assumed my board supported it out of the box. Clicking it takes you to a somewhat hidden page that has downloads for firmware updates for the Thunderbolt 3 Chips. After downloading and running them and following the instructions all my USB issues with my phone have gone away! :good:

So the the broken version of the thunderbolt 3 firmware on my motherboard must have been failing to initialize the device connection in someway, causing it to misbehave. :eek:

Sorry, I realize this post isn't related to any particular phone and this post would probably best be posted on some forum related to my motherboard, but my original question assumed it was just a problem with the phone. Any one with a thunderbolt 3 port with problems similar to those described above, you might want to look into a firmware update!

So... Anyone out there played with /vendor/etc/perf-profile*.conf yet?

It appears we have 8 perfd profiles that something selects... And overrides any other CPU choices while perfd is enabled...

Thoughts?
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] tech_head:
Haven't looked at that but have a tweaked thermal-engine.conf
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] rignfool:
I don't think I've ever bumped into the thermal.config...

I think perfd get a hold of the processor long before the thermal engine fires up
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] tech_head:
I think it uses both.

Definitely the thermal-engine.conf for heat throttling.

But the perf-profile is probably used and from what I can tell scaling up/down based on demand.

I modified them to take advantage of the overclock in my ElementalX kernel and tweaks thermal-engine.conf.

I now see the CPU go into the overclock frequencies more often. I hadn't even bothered looking in those files.

Great Find!!!!
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] rignfool:
Now if only I could understand what triggers them..............
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] tech_head:
CPU load as reported by the kernel.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] rignfool:
It seems to be more than that...
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] tech_head:
There are some target loads. There are some ramp times.

If you are running ElementalX and are over clocked. Just adjust the frequencies to get the performance.

If you research thermal-engine.conf it will help understand these files.

Actually my friend has itel it1520 which had some software problem.. and got stuck at the itel logo at startup... And no automatic rebooting (no boot loop) it stucked.... At logo... So we thought to flash ROM and install stock version.. so I downloaded stock ROM.. and installed drivers.. then i open SP Flash Tool and loaded the MT6735 Scatter file from the Firmware... What i got there is I can't format the data or download the stock ROM .. it stucked at 0% and gaev me error for unable to download or something... I am not a pro.. in installing software in android.. but I came to conclusion that there are 2 more stock ROM available for different build number... So maybe wrong ROM for the phone.... But I can't open the phone.. and it's chip/ic doesn't have build number written... I tried TWRP but it doesn't shows connected or not.. now I want to find the build number please help me with finding it.. or if I am doing something wrong please redirect me..

Actually my friend also went to service center that said softaware not supported need to change the mother board... ????

[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] Andrej_SK:
Does it show up in settings? Can u see "unlock with fingerprint" option?
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] Frarione:
No, it doesn't show anywhere
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] Andrej_SK:
Use Lenovo Moto Smart Assistant ("Rescue" function on the "Flash" tab) to downgrade to latest stock Nougat build (backup all important data first, they will be deleted).

Here's the link: https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/downloads/ds101291. Program works perfectly fine on Win8.1 x64 also even it's not mentioned on the official download page. :)
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] Frarione:

[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] Andrej_SK:
If your fingerprint doesn't work after trying Oreo soak test, then yes. Or you have to find exactly the same version of system and all the partitions that have been updated when you have installed Oreo soak test build and flash them separately using fastboot.
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] Frarione:
Well, it just broke when i installed the rom, so i guess i will stay with the oreo soak test
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] Andrej_SK:
You might give a tutorial below a try (however, I'm not responsible for any damage. If you proceed to follow this tutorial, you are doing it at your own risk.)

IT WILL DELETE ALL THE DATA, SO BACKUP IMPORTANT THINGS FIRST.

1. Download and install Lenovo Moto Smart Assistant into your PC/laptop.

2. Click "Flash" tab --> use "Rescue" function --> select exactly your model (XT167_) --> boot phone into fastboot mode to be able to download stock Nougat ROM (download option will be available after successful recognition of phone in fastboot mode, but only if firmware is available)

You can turn on the phone if download has started.

3. Press download button --> open "hamburger menu" in upper left corner to see download progress. When download finishes, press Win+R and enter

%programdata%\LMSA\Download\RomFiles

Downloaded ROMs are stored here by default.

4. Move all files from ROM folder to your adb folder (not the whole folder, only its content).

5. Use these fastboot commands to revert back to Nougat

fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash oem oem.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot

6. Your phone will reboot immediately with Nougat stock ROM installed and fingerprint working.
