[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] ronhelms35:
A few months ago I sold my Google Pixel XL on EBay is perfect working condition. The buyer returned the phone after 12 days stating that the phone would not boot. Not sure if she was trying to unlock the bootloader or what. I got the phone back and when I power it on I get the Google splash screen then screen goes dark, then the splash screen again. Not sure if the phone is salvageable or not. Any help or guidance would be appreciated.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] drozek:
can you get it into the bootloader?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] dracinn:
Sounds like a soft brick. If the padlock is open on the Google screen and you get a message on boot then it's unlocked at which time I'd recommend installing the lastest factory image from Google and then relock if you want to use it stock and unrooted.

More Information

The Google Splash screen is completely white with the Google name in the center. It will come up and then the screen goes black. Then the process repeats.

When trying to get into recovery I get an android lying on his back 16 blue squares in its belly. Below is the information on its screen....

BL: 8996-012001-1711291800

Baseband: 8996-130091-1710201747

Product/Variant: marlin-US-PVT

Serial Number: xxxxxxx

CPU:

UFS:

DRAM:

Boot-slot: a

Console: Disabled

Secure Boot: PRODUCTION

Device is LOCKED

When selecting RECOVERY MODE the phone boots back to the Google splash screen.

When selecting Restart Bootloader the phone boots back the Android laying on its back.

I think this phone may only be good for parts but I am not sure. Thanks in advance for any replies.

Once you.see the dead Android hold the power button in, while holding it in press the volume up button one time, release the power button.

Sideload current firmware from google and that should work and it will also lock bootloader
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Phalanx7621:
Isn't his bootloader already locked ? And I'm pretty sure OTA, files don't relock your bootloader, that's something you have to do manually.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] ronhelms35:
I tried this but nothing happens. I think the phone is worthless now unless someone wants it for parts.

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] crackerjack1957:
If you cannot do anything in recovery with bootloader locked you are probably out of luck.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Phalanx7621:
One of the reasons I tell everyone to always unlock their bootloader and keep it unlocked. There's honestly no down side to it, and it prevents things like this from happening. I'm sorry the OP is in this situation, truly sucks.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] ISH99:
I was trying to install a modified ROM in redmi note 3. The rom had a modified emmc_appsboot.mbn and a modded recovery.img. I entered in sp flash tool and was flashing the rom and the app crashed or battery ran out while installing. Now the fastboot and the os were bricked. At this point when I tried to boot the MI logo was showing up for a second and then it reboots. At this point, it was showing up as a fastboot device on my pc so I tried using command fastboot reboot edl and it worked (in the black screen). now in edl mode (red light blinking when plugged in), I tried installing stock rom and again it was interrupted ( due to maybe battery issue). Now when I connect the device to pc it detects as 900e instead of 9008, whenever I press the power button it blinks red light like in edl mode ( this may also happen if the battery has no juice), I cannot charge coz its still in edl mode.

I tried Deep Flash cable, it didn't work. I then manually updated the driver from 900e to 9008, it shows up in mi flash tool but installation fails with the error cannot receive hello package.

After ****ing my device this much I went to a mi service center and they said that when they try to install software, it fails. They dunno why, I guess the battery is not enough to install the software.

Finally, They asked to replace the motherboard. since spending 5k on kenzo in october 2018 is a waste any bright minds have any idea for repair,?

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] mrpersia09:
Hello everyone,

I need help accessing my external sd card on my rooted Tab A running 6.0.1.

i've basically lost all functionality except for installing, and using the few apps that were on my internal memory.

The tablet doesnt allow me to install any app, (either from the app store or otherwise), and keeps saying no space install some apps.

I was downloading an app from a source that turn out to be completely unreliable.. anyways, As soon as i installed this app, my tablet went crazy.. tons of apps started tp fail and i kept getting notifications that so and so program failed .. this kept happening for about a week i tried to just get a full backup of everything and then restore stock firmware, but smartSwitch kept crashing and wouldn't let me get a backup. I then tried to just backup my tablet, not including the EXT SD, and again the same issue kept happening.

Long story short, Somehow MY SD Card, Internal Storage, and the flash memory all got tangled up and marked as external Im attaching a few pictures because that probably makes no sense. someone please let me know of a way to solve this that doesn't require me losing everything. last time i got a backup was like 2 years ago.

Thank You!

Apparently i can't post outside links... if anyone wants to see the pics please message me!

[Honor 9 Lite Questions & Answers] xzyk:
Hi friends, so there's a lot about installing gsi images on various phones that support project treble but i cannot find anything about how you update them. I installed OmniRom beta3, via fastboot, on my H9L and 3 days later they put out an update. The rom works fine and i set it up to my preference with magisk and it even shows up as Play certified, so all is good. However, with the update I prefer not to go through the whole magisk uninstall/install again. Anyone here knows how you would update an existing gsi images ? If I use fastboot to load the new update wouldn't that erase everything again, as stated on the openkirin.net installation instructions ? or could i jsut fastboot the new beta3.1 over beta3 and just not do a factory reset as recommended ?

Weird everyone writes about installation and no one things about updates ?

thanks.
[Honor 9 Lite Questions & Answers] Fredin_:
Good question mate. Since you're on omni I rom do you think it's better than ressuruction remix?
[Honor 9 Lite Questions & Answers] xzyk:
for me, yes, because one of the most important feature i need is safetynet to pass. Omni was easier to get it to pass safetynet checks (via magisk) then RR. I also like the way Omni implemented the dark theme, obviously all of these are just preferences both roms are good daily drivers.

UPDATE: so i fastbooted the updated img file with stock recovery and did not do any wipes. All was fine including root and certification.

Good to hear that you updated successfully. I also love the theme engine in Omni rom but had to switch to stock for the camera :o

You need to understand how custom ROM development works. LOS 15.1 is a work in progress....stabilising but not stable, and not official. P will be next year probably as it will take time to get sources and generate compatibility with our now increasingly obsolete device.

You seem to expect too much too soon.

Advice....don't ask but watch the scene. Keep a patient mind and you will get rewards

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Creater0822:
So long story short: A friend of mine got himself this phone and I had thought about Google Searching on how to unlock this phone's boot loader. That said I came across tutorials where people had to create a MI account, use something along the lines of *cough *cough "The Klaud" and even had to wait a couple of days.

Since I've had the easy experience with "fastboot oem unlock" I was wondering if the same works for this Poco F1, thus bringing you the question from the thread's title.

What is Picture Manager?

Some manufactures like HTC and Sony (probably some more) save pictures taken with an incremented number in the filename, instead with a timestamp like other manufactures do.

When you factory reset your device, buy a new device or clean flash a custom rom, the camera picture counter gets reset and starts with e.g. IMAG_00001 again.

This can be an issue once you backup your files to a harddrive on your PC, because you will have duplicate filenames, although the pictures are actually different.

Picture Manager solves this problem by renaming your taken pictures with a timestamp format that you can select or even define yourself.

You can either start a batch process before you backup your pictures to your HDD, or automatically let Picture Manager rename your files in the background.

Another nice feature Picture Manager offers is that you can let it organize your taken pictures into folders that are named by the year, month and even day.

That will help you to quickly find your pictures again and brings some organization into you pictures.

Requirements

You have to be on at least Android 5.0 Lollipop

How does it work

Picture Manager relies on the EXIF Metadata that is stored into each picture. The EXIF Metadata contains a lot of information, the one Picture Manager needs is the date the picture was taken.

With that information Picture Manager can reliably rename and organize your pictures.

Tasker Plugin

Picture Manager comes with a Tasker Action Plugin. That means that you can start a batch process on different events, like time, when usb gets connected etc.

Premium features

If you want to use the custom format, background service or the Tasker plugin you need to upgrade to the premium version.

To upgrade you can use an in app purchase. Or you paypal me and I mail you a premium code. That way google doesn't get 30% of the income.

FAQ

Q: What about videos?

A: Picture Manager can also handle mp4 recorded videos.

Q: What about other manufactures than HTC and Sony?

A: I just know about those two that use an incremented number in their filename. If you know more, let me know. If your files are already timestamped you can still use the organizer to move your files into timestamped folders.

Q: After using the organizer I have sometimes missing files in my gallery?

A: Use the media scanner built in Picture Manager to make those files visible.

Q: Will the background service drain a lot of battery?

A: Picture Manager makes use of Androids JobSheduler, like Google Photos and Amazon Photos instant upload and is very battery friendly. When checking GSAM stats, it is nearly at the very bottom of the list.

I have SM-N950F/DS and rooted. I have installed custom rom and change csc using csc installer to somehow enable volte but still doesn't work, I searched everywhere and saw some post that adding some lines in cscfeatures.xml and still volte doesn't work, my carrier supports volte. I'm on NTT Docomo. any help???:confused:

can anyone please help me how to flash patched csc from DCM???
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] winol:
When I bought my note 8, unlocked, but carrier branded, it coul not work with volte out of the box, I took it to the carrier, and they enabled the service in their system, gave me a newer sim for free, and that was it, VoLTE working, maybe you need to do something like this
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] upbeatwrench:
I don't know if they would do that thing, their version of galaxy note 8 is completely different, just by their model number(SC-01K), everything is different, and I don't even know if they know these things, they barely know a thing about their products, I wouldn't let them take my phone and take it to their own repair center and tell me that, "oh it's not possible cause your phone is different and it is not purchased from us" or worst is, they would change my phone to the carrier compatible ones, which I hate, cause Japanese samsung phones really really sucks.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] winol:
Well, I understand your concerns, but they did not took my device, they just checked the imei, asked me for the sales receipt and handed it back to me, and all the process was made in their system, the last part being when they gave me the new sim, which I installed right there to check for VoLTE, well, that was my experience in enabling VoLTE
