[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wakiwakee:
So my old tablet(galaxy tab 3v) suddenly got stuck on samsung logo after I restarted it. I watched youtube tutorials on how to fix this and found this guy fixing it using ODIN, I did every steps that he did on that video but after I press the start it just failed and says Re-partition operation failed. I tried asking reddit and somebody told me to ask here. I know my tablet is relatively old but that is the only gadget that I have and I really want to fix the problem I hope somebody here can help me.

Sorry if this the wrong forum:

Doe anyone need a bricked PX5 MTCE_MX2 Unit? 2 Gig RAM.

have tried to install HAL9K Oreo (installed before Malaysk Oreo), the Device doesn't show any sign of life, neither with long press reset nor after unplug power.

maybe for someone wants to try to recover.

Device is in Germany, I would charge only for shipping

for Details PM
[MTCD Android Head Units General] marchnz:
Yes please, in need of spare hardware to develop hardware mods and help members recover SOMs.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] geowiwi:
Funny enough I had the same experience with a MTCE_MX2 and the Hal9k Oreo ROM just a few days ago and recovered it with the help of [MENTION=4974080]marchnz[/MENTION]'s documentation (USB-OTG method). In case you need help: I'm located in Austria (Salzburg area)
[MTCD Android Head Units General] kare_meesner:
Arrrrgh!

Just coming back from mountaineering near St Johann :eek:

but to be serious:

- I'am not that tinkerer

- I've already ordered replacement

- maybe marchnz gets shortly a device for further development

thanks anyway
[MTCD Android Head Units General] geowiwi:
Just my direction. And I was in Freilassing today. If you've bricked enough units for the developers and still need help let me know. :D
[MTCD Android Head Units General] wboops:
brick unit

i will have it if you are in the UK
[MTCD Android Head Units General] variosteph:
Would be interresting why your device bricked, as I wanted to root my device and Flash this Rom this weekend... Funny that i'm just a 45 min drive away from Salzburg!
[MTCD Android Head Units General] kare_meesner:
it was the same behaviour like this : https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=77749736&postcount=99

but I couldn't get it to work like him, though I've tried until unit was "dead", and I don't have the energy to try the usb-otg method.

p.s. I'm living a bit east of Munich, so maybe not to far away from you?
[MTCD Android Head Units General] variosteph:
OK, so I'll have to read a little bit more before starting to root and Flash.

P. S. District MÜ.

[Honor 4C Guides, News, & Discussion] asad393:
Hi Friends,

This post is basically a guide on how to enable Gyroscope on Huawei Honor 4C. Honor 4C is also a mid-range device that does not have gyroscope. Not having a gyro means you are not able to use VR or 360 or basically to say simply you cannot use a VR Headset at all.

I stuck in the issue after I ordered a VR Headset and found that my phone does not have gyro. I found a post on XDA about using Xposed Module Virutal Sensor for a gyroscope sensor. Basically what it was intended to do was that it gets values from accelorometer and magnetometer and creates values for gyroscope.

Unfortunately, that module as per my research was only working with KitKat version of Honor 4C. So I searched varies other methods. Besides that, installing Xposed is a very tough process as I had to reset my phone 4-5 times during the process as its framework was not easy to install and I constantly got stuck in boot-loops.

Now on the contrary, the process of actually enabling a gyroscope is quite simple. A simple root is needed and few permissions need to allowed for an XML file after pasting it.

Here is the guide now. It worked on my Huawei Honor 4C - Marshmallow and EMUI 4.0

1. Download the file android.hardware.sensor.gyroscope.xml[Attached] or from here : https://mega.nz/#!pEEGFLbJ!scUWYUCZ_...4DyCT7jSWCW35E

The code of the file is written below

-->

<!-- Feature for devices with gyroscope. -->
<permissions>
<feature name="android.hardware.sensor.gyroscope" />
</permissions>

2. Paste this file using RootExplorer[Any Version] /system/etc/permissions

3. Give this file following permissions 0644 - rw-r--r--

4. Now save and reboot your phone.

5. To verify, you can download Google CardBoard app or any other Gyroscope sensor.

This method is easiest. I found gyro to be quite stable so far.

This file code was written basically for P8 Lite but as the hardware of P8 Lite and Honor 4C is quite simple, it works smoothly on Honor 4C too.

Let me know your thoughts and comments. I have also attached a few screenshots of my gyroscope readings.

Tested with:

1. Google CardBoard VR

2. YouTube 360 Degree Videos

3. Gyroscope Test downloaded from GooglePlay

Please say thanks if you like this post and follow me for more cool stuff.

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] silegeek:
I can't find any questions regarding this, the closest I saw was today, about not having gotten the OEM Unlock option back.

Ever since unlocking the bootloader, it broke Google Pay and Device Certification. I don't know why Google Pay needs a locked bootloader to work. I imagine security reasons, but there are other banking apps that work regardless (Barclays has its own contactless system built in for example, and that works).

I know that enabling OEM Unlock will force a factory reset and then disappear for 7 days. I have it back and it is currently disabled saying "bootloader is already unlocked"

What I want to know is, will enabling it re-lock the bootloader or is there some other way I can do that? Because I would like Google Pay functionality back. Netflix I'm not so fussed about as APKs for things can be installed manually.
[Samsung Galaxy A6 Questions & Answers] Amphibius2:
I've had my A6+ for about 2 month now and I'm very happy with the phone. But there is one issue that happens from time to time. The phone does not do anything internet related. It doesn't matter if it's my home WiFi or my mobile data. The phone itself shows that it's connect to the wifi but nothing works. YouTube doesn't load, neither does the play store and WhatsApp messages don't get sent. What's weird is that for example YouTube and the play store don't say that I don't have a connection, as they normally would if there is no access to the internet. They just keep loading without showing an error message of some sorts. I've tried to restart the phone a couple of times, even wiping the cache of the phone itself and of the apps. I don't know what's causing it and how to solve it. The first time it just started working again after many hours, but I don't know if it's because I did something or because it was random.

I'm thankful for every idea and answer :)
[Samsung Galaxy A6 Questions & Answers] A3Seventeen:
I've gone through this before and for me it had something to do with the Data Saver option.

When I restarted while Data Saver was on, this would happen (no internet access even when connected to WiFi or mobile data) but when I restart with the Data Saver off it would function normally. You can still use the Data Saver but just don't restart with the Data Saver on
[Samsung Galaxy A6 Questions & Answers] Amphibius2:
That could be it, although I can't test it anymore. The solution that worked for me and that was given by the Samsung support was to reset the network settings and then reboot. It worked again after that:)

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Axl_Mas:

4k is a job for 8xx sd . Our device can't handle that heat. 720p 8bit hevc is the limit here

[Honor 9 Lite Questions & Answers] nik_123:
I have TWRP and magisk installed.

I want to update to latest firmware and lock the bootloader so that no message appear on startup and I can receive future updates.

How to do this ?

If I update directly from updater, it doesn't work and gets cancelled automatically.

Please let me know.
[Honor 9 Lite Questions & Answers] Fredin_:
You can do this but you still won't get back your waranty.

You need to download the latest firmware from firmware finder and flash them(all 3 zip files)

FIRST ENABLE OEM UNLOCKING FROM DEVELOPER SETTINGS

So in short use HuRupdater.

Here's a link to an archive that has all 3 files of the latest update extract it and you'll get 3 files.

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=77704176&postcount=38

You need to rename the files accordingly, check the HuRupdater thread for details

https://www.google.co.in/amp/s/xdaf...lash-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279/amp/

Flash the HuRupdater file from TWRP. Don't put recovery image with the files(you'll understand after reading the HuRupdater thread) since you want to go complete stock.

After flashing relock your bootloader:

First at boot, hold the volume up button to get in the e-recovery. Then do a factory reset. Then go into fastboot mode (shutdown the device, holddown the volume down button and plug in USB) and use this code to relock bootloader.

FASTBOOT OEM RELOCK YOUR CODE

ITS IMPORTANT TO KEEP OEM UNLOCK ENABLED IN DEVELOPER SETTINGS BEFORE DOING ANYTHING.

(this'll surely work but incase you screw up remember YOU SCREWED UP)

Hit that thanks button if it works.?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] gdlin:
Hey there,

I'm having a problem with the battery, my s200 isn't showing the status, the Battery Status: Unknown appears. I've installed the battery "meter" plugins, but none of them works. I just don't know how much battery do I have. Also, when I plug it to the power it charges the batery, but there is no led, no notification. I know that it's charging because I took some voltage measures, but there is no led, and in the windows it's always the same battery status unknown. With the battery status plugins show me -1% of battery.

What can I do?

I thought to change the Radio ROM, to see if that could fix this, but when I try to do that, the program says error 300, invalid update tool.

So i just want to know how to fix the battery issue. Could the radio rom be?

Thanks in advance.

Gus
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] l3v5y:
I have finally found something on resetting the battery!

Try changing or re calibrating the battery.

Taken from the Universal WiKi (should work on the Prophet)

Charge the battery overnight with the supplied poweradapter, not with the USB cable

Drain the battery without SD-card, powersaving off and backlight on full

At some level, the device will turn off. Switch it on and go to the bootloader and drain the battery until it's really empty

Charge the battery again with the supplied poweradapter
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] gdlin:
okay I'm doing that. I think I did it, but I'll try again. I charge it while it's off right? how much do I charge it? because there is no light telling me when the charging is done

thks !

Hi,

Is it safe to update to .156 from .152, can I still use Magisk to root?

I'm currently using Magisk v16.0 apk 5.6.4 and it kinda works with some crashes and bugs. (the phone has the bootloader unlocked and TWRP by Pretoriano80 installed)

Thanks!
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] moomoon03:
I have to say some 4d predictive focus on camera app is not working for me since b156
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] mrabcx:
I do NOT recommend .156, you will be getting a lot of messages about available patches who will not install correctly as you have the so-called unofficial TWRP bootloader.

What I do recommend is that you update to .157. There is some more info on that in the last posts of the thread:

https://xdaforums.com/huawei-p20-pro/development/huawei-p20-pro-charlotte-l29c432b131-8-t3809964

Thanks, found 2 files for the .157 update (update.zip and update_all_hw.zip.zip) still searching for update_data_full_public.zip, with pro-teammt.r u down, are there any other sources?

Hi Folks,

i "updated" from G4 (16GB) to X4 (32GB).

Well im a bit disappointed because of the internal storage. From 32GB only about 17GB free. My old G4 was using about 4GB from 16GB. I thought maybe 8GB used... but now its nearly 16GB :(.

It this because of this dual partition stuff (Slot A/B)?

If i flash Lineage (works great on the G4) can I get more free space?

As stated above suggesting the ota file is your best option I have a pixel that corrupts itself if I try updating any other way and it works without losing data
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Your bootloader apparently is locked. To add to what the two previous posters have said, an OTA image can be sideloaded regardless of the lock status of the bootloader. Since the OTA image is a complete ROM you should be able to get up and running with minimal fuss.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] exist2resist:
You need to boot into recovery mode, which you said your phone was on when you removed it from pocket, once in there hold volume up and press the power button.

Then you can go to option Apply update from ADB, select that and sideload will be possible.

If you want you can also temporarily launch twrp from fastboot, and try installing the OTA that way.

This will not install a new recovery or modify anything on your phone.

Maybe I'm wrong, and maybe I'm not understanding what's going on, but unlocking the bootloader completely wipes the phone. Including user data.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
[MENTION=3202978]exist2resist[/MENTION]: His bootloader is apparently locked, meaning he cannot temp boot TWRP.

[MENTION=5177835]Soured Lie[/MENTION]: You would be correct. Attempting to unlock the bootloader would wipe the data.

[MENTION=5156638]hacktron[/MENTION]: Why are you attempting to unlock the bootloader when no one told you to do so? If you had succeeded you would have lost all that data you say is more valuable than the phone itself. You would have had no one to blame but yourself. Since you're having difficulty, this page may be of use to you. Follow its instructions and you should have no issue restoring your device.

[MENTION=2807229]Strephon Alkhalikoi[/MENTION] - Hear you load and clear. I assumed ADB was not able to connect but I am going to go back when I have a chance and make sure the drivers are all there, then try to sideload OTA again as it was originally suggested.

Really appreciate the feedback from y'all.
