I was on G935FXXU2DRAG and tried G935FXXS3ERHD.

Now I can't go back to G935FXXU2DRAG.

I tried full TWRP backup restore, BL flash via Odin and stock firmware flash in Odin.

I can't go back to U2?

How can I force flash U2 bootloader via Odin or TWRP?

Edit:

I found a solution, see: Original post

I think there're a few apps on play store that do just that but MIUI aggressive ram management might screw it all up.

[LineageOS Questions & Answers] smd9:
I recently installed Lineage on my Moto X 2014 victara (current version: 14.1 Sep. 9 nightly build).

I'm generally happy with it, except for one really odd quirk: it plays a constant soft ringing tone in the background. It sounds somewhat like a xylophone with 4 tones, a pause, then 4 other tones, then the whole thing repeats itself without end. I went through all the notification and ring tones to identify it, but it does not show in either place.

The only way I can get it to stop is by turning the ringer volume all the way down, but it will also interfere with the media volume (e.g. YouTube, Google Play Music) and cause that volume not to come through. I can also reboot to solve the problem, but after about half an hour or so it will start again.

Has anyone else come across this or know how to fix it?

[Shift General] jlingo:
Just wondering I'm using Athena Intel 624Mhz. I noticed that Shift WM is only using 400Mhz Qualcomm processor. Does this mean the Shift WM will be slower than the Athena intel based 624Mhz? Does anybody have any benchmarks or real life comparisons?

I'm very interested with Shift but I'm afraid the performance hit would be very hard to bear.

Thanks
[Shift General] Pantaloonie:
I have both Athena and Shift, there is no noticeable speed difference between them, although I cannot install many apps on the Shift due to the size constraints.
[Shift General] jlingo:
Thanks for the input.

I love my Athena a lot. I'm afraid that I will miss so much from Athena with Shift. I'm more interested in the windows mobile department than in the Vista department. Since performance such as snappiness is very important.

Can you actually synchronize Shift to your laptop computer using activesync similar to Athena?

I have a bunch of data files and emails on my laptop, with athena synchronized via activesync. I'm afraid with Shift, it will be a lot of work to keep the files synchronized with my laptop.
[Shift General] foxmeister:
SnapVue/WM on the Shift, can't "see" the USB port on the device (that may or may not change in the future) so you can't sync it directly to another laptop via ActiveSync. You can however sync it to its own Vista side via activesync if you've liberated your Shift.

However, it seems to me that if you aren't particularly interested in the Vista side of the device, it's likely that it isn't the device for you in the first place - your Athena is probably more than capable enough for your needs. It's really a Vista PC first, and a WM device second.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meta-xx:
Hi all, new member here, so apologies for any mistakes I make.

A friend of mine has passed on to me his Nexus 5 (2013), stating that there were a number of issues he was having with it. After using the device myself for a couple days I can confirm that the following issues are present:

- The screen will sporadically freeze and become unresponsive to any touch input, and the only way to solve this is to lock the device and unlock it again. The time between instances of this is random.

- The screen will occasionally cut to black, but the display is still active (i.e. you can only see the backlight). This happens for a number of seconds before returning to normal on it's own.

- The camera is completely unresponsive/broken (See picture 1 below). Possible loose connection?

- The WiFi is stuck on 'turning WiFi on' in the settings, and stuck at searching for networks in the notification bar(See pictures 2 & 3 below).

The device was dropped at some point in the past, but the damage is typical (See picture 4 below) and I see no immediate reason why this damage should cause these issues in particular, but I'm by no means an expert, hence why I'm here. =) The device has only been dropped one time, and has not suffered any other damage, including water damage.

My first instinct was to boot into recovery mode (where it should be noted that the freezing and display issues I mentioned above didn't occur, leading me to believe it is more of a software issue?) and clear the cache partition, which did not solve the issue, and neither did a full factory reset.

So, with all that being said, what would you guys suggest? Should I try flashing the factory image to see if that works? Rooting? Flashing a custom ROM? Any suggestions would be most appreciated!

If you require any additional information let me know and I'll happily oblige.

Thanks in advance guys!

It could be the motherboard or screen. You won't know for sure until you replace one or the other.

The wifi chips do fail on the Nexus 5. I a motherboard that also tries to turn on wifi but turns itself off after a few minutes.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meta-xx:
My first thought was that it was a hardware issue to begin with, but due to the sporadic nature of the issues (excluding the camera obviously), and the fact that it didn't happen whilst in the recovery menu, I'm more inclined to believe it to be a software issue? I could be wrong of course, I'm just wondering if it's worth flashing the factory image on to see if that solves the issue?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
You may as well flash the stock image and see what happens.

The lines showing on the screen does not look like a software issue to me.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meta-xx:
Those lines are what appear when I open the camera, they're not there otherwise. THAT is almost definitely a hardware issue, granted.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsacter:
I have a Nexus 5 that has the wifi issue. I flashed a bunch of different Android versions (like Android 7 and 6.0) which none have worked. At one point I opened my Nexus 5 and left it like that for about a month, then afterwards I assembled it back together and the wifi worked for a little bit and then went back to its broken state. I've concluded that it is a hardware issue since data was working fine and was the only way I could get internet on my phone.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meta-xx:
Hmm. I have to be be honest after looking online it appears that wifi failure is a somewhat common issue on the Nexus 5 devices. It has to be a hardware based problem it would seem.

Thanks for letting me know, I appreciate your input. =)
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] adam79:
I bought my LG G5 new last November (2017). Ever since last week the battery can't hold a charge for more than a few hours. It goes from 100% to dead two to three times a day. Before this disturbing trend, my normal usage would get a full day off a full charge.

A normal day for me is listening to a music player w/ headphones, making sure the screen in on standby. If the screen isn't off I'm just doing light web browsing, like checking forums, searching eBay, reading articles...just really basic web browser stuff. I make sure to keep the brightness at 40-50% on average; close to zero at night.

Anyone have an idea why this happening and how to remedy?

Thanks.

So I got the new battery in the mail and no dice, it still is chewing right through it. It doesn't seem as drastic as it was initially, but I still need to charge it again in the mid-late afternoon.

I think it could the charger. Shortly after i got the phone the battery wasn't holding so well. Then I left the stock charger at a friends. I didn't have time to go pick it up, so I bought a replacement and all of a sudden the battery was holding all day. Then after a while that new charger wasn't holding the battery, so I switched back to the stock one and it was holding it all day again. So chargers have alot to do with battery performance. I ordered another one; hopefully that fixes the problem.

Hello there Mi Max 3 users,

Many of you have probably seen that the Max 3's camera is actually not too bad, expect in low light, it's terrible

Some tried the Google camera app and are amazed with the results

But some, if not the most, don't even have Camera2 api enabled

So I came across an app called cortex camera. It's supposed to take long exposure shots without the need of a tripod

Unfortunately my Max 3 hasn't arrived yet, but maybe some of you want to try the app. It's not cheap (3$) but in case it doesn't work you can simply get a refund :)

Here's the link the app

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] buczek0711:
Hello. I'm a happy (?!) user of Win 10 Pro x64 since few days.

I want to connect my RN4X Snapdragon to PC, using usb on my pc's motherboard.

However, despite setting option, that I'll listed below, my phone is still not recognisable as useful stuff.

Without changing anything on my phone since my last flashing topics (Feb and March this year), I was fully able to connect easily to pc with win7 x64. I also was able to connect (using Xiaomi's cable, cheap replacement does not seem to work) phone to win 8.1 x64, where only the basic adb fastboot were installed. But, I cannot do the same on newest Windows.

I've done:

1. Installing minimal adb and fastboot 1.4.3. for all users (I'm the only one account here, but not sure if that's matter)

2. Having programming option enabled, usb debugging enabled and all that good stuff.

3. All four elements on that list - https://************/how-to-fix-mtp-devices-not-connecting-on-windows-10/

4. I've tried to install it as adb interface, installing it manually, installing it by using *.cat files from xiaomi_usb_driver archive, that contain that kind of stuff for newer windowses (it's from this side, if I remember it right - https://www.xiaomiusbdrivers.com/2018/02/download-xiaomi-usb-driver-2018-for_4.html)

5. Almost all stuf from here - https://www.jihosoft.com/android-tips/windows-10-cannot-recognize-android.html. Because I do not have Samsung, Odin mode is not an issue :)

6. I've tried to install my Redmi 4X as MTP device. However, my phone during each connection to PC started himself in charging mode (I can change it). Even changing it doesn't changing anything, though.

7. Editing the bulid.prop, adding there few lines describing how the phone should behave. I've saved it, but my original version of bulid.prop does not have anything in there about types of connection. I don't remember it word by word, but I've could check in history if anyone will find it interesting.

Drivers for usb 3.1 are pre-installed with mine version of win10 (I cannot install drivers given on my motherboard's dvd attached, system says that I'm currently having them).

When I try to install it manually via device manager, on the first time it says, that is other device, identifed briefly as MTP. However, installing it either as Android ADB interface, fastboot interface or third option does not give me anything. What's worse, even when I've pick windows/INF as my source of drivers for this device, it does not list on "lemme pick ddevice type" MTP type devices. I'm using win 10 in polish, so it might be that I'm blind or does NOT understand translate.

What else could I do? I can of course use wife's laptop with 8.1, usb sticks or other stuff, but I would like to have it sorted out.

Hi,

I have a Galaxy S6 Edge (SM-G928) where I need to get access to. I don't need any data on it so a wipe would be great. But I can't get inside the phone as the pattern was changed and FRP is active.

When I try to get to the boot menu (power up + home button) and choose to wipe data it says that MDM does not allow that.

When I try to upload a custom rom it says that FRP would prevent that.

I already updated the Android to the version 7 using Odin. That worked so far but the lock pattern is still there...

Any ideas?

Thanks,

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] AxonN00b:
Hi I am planning to flash a custom ROM to my Axon 7 (Chinesse version). I have been running stock so far and I am on the newest Android 8 update currently. But I am no longer satisfied, especially since I bought the daydream view headset and my version no longer supports it. So I have looked around a bit and am quite overwhelmed by the amount of available ROMs. Thats where you guys come in, help me pick a great ROM that satisfies the following conditions:

Working daydream.

Fully fledged and fully working Google Assistant.

Working all basic features(wifi, calls, sms, bt...) including NFC and hotspot. Minor bugs are ok, but it must serviceable and usable.

Working stereo speakers (Atmos if possible). This just means I want keep my loud and decent quality speakers. The internal Hi-Fi DAC does not need to work if this condition is met anyway. For music I use Jabra Elit Sport BT headphones and my jack is broken amyway.

Battery life, at least as good as on stock, preferably better.

Working camera for day time shots and videos(4k option and hdr+ option highly preffered, but no necessary). If the flash is not synced it is fine, but it needs to retain flashlight functionality.

HDR video and other Pixel functions (preferably snappatch support) - this is not vital, but very welcome.

At least Android 8 Oreo, preferably 9 Pie(but I can already tell this is probably just wishful thinking)[LIST1]

Overall I just want to make sure to install the best possible ROM, that will meet as many of the requirements listed and has further developement pitential.

BONUS: Is there anyway of unlocking additional 4g/LTE bands on my chinesse version (I dont think so, but asking just in case).

Any input is highly appreciated!

Also I am a bit of a noob when it comes to custom ROMs flashing, unlocking bootloaders etc., but I am a programmer by trade and can read guides and follow insteuctions so I dont anticipate many prolems in this regard. However tips and warning for more complex and convoluted procedures are welcome. Thank you!
