Hi,

I used https://xdaforums.com/mate-10/development/kernel-mate-10-mate-10-pro-stock-t3744501 from ante0 to make this kernel.

I added support for external wifi adapters (TL-WN722N works perfectly with Kali chroot'ed and linux deploy)

My only concern is that the battery life is not as good because of several kernel wakelocks

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Gazelle38:
Hello,

I tried to update my wife's Samsung S7 firmware using Odin and managed to brick/boot loop it.

I need some help getting it working again.

Its an unlocked T-Mobile Samsung S7 (SM-G30T) from Ebay using a Virgin Mobile SIM and it originally had the G930TUVU4APK1 (Android 6.0.1) firmware on it.

It would not update OTA, so I downloaded the G930TUVS8CRJ1 (Android 8.0) from Sammmobile.com.

I opened Odin, selected the BL, AP, CP and CSC files and hit Start. The Odin log said "failed (auth)".

I exited Download Mode and tried to restart the phone, it would try to boot but it gave me the message "security error: this phone has been flashed with unauthorized software and is locked".

I downloaded and tried to flash the older G930TUVU4APK1 (Android 6.0.1) firmware, but it did not work.

I am able to get back into Download Mode and Odin still recognizes the phone. I think its possible to save it?

I should have never tried to do this, I feel terrible and I need some help. How can I fix this? Where can I find firmware that I can flash to fix this?

I would really appreciate your help! Thank you very much!!

Something I noticed. Before I tried to update it, on the Download Mode screen, it said "Current Binary: Official".

Now it says "Current Binary: Custom". I think I need to get that to say "Official" again.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] soyuz4u:
I would suggest that you download the firmware again and then try flashing it.....

As far as that custom binary thing is concerned.... That's not going to change as far as i know cause that tripped the knox.... And the warranty is lost... If it was there ..... So i hope u recover it again.... Also try getting into the recovery mode and format before flashing the firmware.... That might help.....

Let me know what happens....

All the best
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Gazelle38:
Thanks for the help soyuz4u!

After spending a long night trying various things,

I was finally able to fix it by flashing the G930TUVS8CRJ1 (Android 8.0) firmware again using Odin. Except this time I used the "CSC..." file, instead of the "HOME_CSC..." file.

Originally I was trying to preserve the data on the phone, so thats why I used the Home file. However, after struggling for a while I eventually gave up hope and decided try it again, this time wiping everything out with the CSC file... and to my delight, it worked! Thank goodness! Its working perfectly on an official firmware!

Is it possible to only sync one way using active sync?

What I want to try and do is the following: On my work laptop I have all my business related calendar entries ie meetings etc. On my phone I have all my personal calendar entries.

I want both on my phone but to only have the business type ones on my laptop.

Is this possible as I can't seem to see an option to set it to only sync down form laptop to phone and not the other way?

[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] XDARoni:
When it comes to budget phones, or any phone that tends to be under the $250 price point, you're going to be making some sacrifices in order to get the cheaper phone. One of the most common areas where you'll see manufacturers cut corners, is the chipset. In most phones under $250, you'll see a Helio or Mediatek chipset. These are the cheapest chipsets available for smartphones and it's the biggest contributing factor for a phone being $250 rather than $400+.

Honor has never gone with these cheaper chipsets for their phones. Even their budget phones will have their powerful Kirin chipsets included. The Honor 8X is the first phone to have the Kirin 710 chipset with AI technology. This chipset, combined with the 4/6GB of RAM makes the Honor 8X perform significantly better than other phone in its price range.

This chipset is also what enables Honor to put the AI camera system in this budget phone. We have seen the AI camera in many other Honor phones at this point, but this is the first time we have seen this technology is an X-series phone.

The build quality and design of this phone are the next feature that makes this the best phone under $250. The design is even more impressive than many flagship devices on the market. The glass back panel and metal frame make make this a stunning phone, visually. The front of the phone holds the massive 6.5" display with a 91% screen-to-body ratio. See this article to read about the technology that went into making this work.

How the Honor 8X Got its Ultra Slim Chin

The last point I'll make on why the 8X is the best phone under $250 is the support that Honor offers with updates. Many budget phones will ship with whatever Android version the ship with, then you might see 1 or two updates before they discontinue support. While this hasn't always been an area that Honor has done well in, these last few years have proved the Honor is putting more effort into providing consistent updates to all of their devices.
[Oppo Find X Questions & Answers] Achillias:
Hello guys,

I'm on the verge of buying this phone with the global ROM and before buying it I would like to know if the notifications on this phone work properly. Can anyone confirm this? I don't want a smartphone where the notifications not work or partly work. Anyone with this phone in Europe that can tell me more about the Europe edition?
[Oppo Find X Questions & Answers] Andrewtst:
I assume Europe version is international global version, then yes all notification is work, but it won't keep notified you, once notified and it will don't have any indicator in top status bar, you need to pull down to check but they do have a dot indicator in the icon if they is any pending notification at notification area.

The notification may not coming in if you let the default on of "Smart Power Consumption Protection", this once turn off then no issue. You can do custom Power Saver after turning this off with 3 more options as "Allow running in the background", "Prohibited running in the background" and also " Intelligent control". Intelligent control is default setting, this feature I find it useful as for example I never need notification from Facebook and Facebook is sucking battery, thus I can put it under "Prohibited running in the background".
[Oppo Find X Questions & Answers] Achillias:
So you are saying all notifications works but sometimes it won't notify you untill you look at the notification bar slider. Also another question. The Europe versions doesn't have the navigation gestures but can you actually hide the on-screen buttons so I could use pie controll and keep having a full screen.
[Oppo Find X Questions & Answers] Andrewtst:
I mean the notification work but it won't show icon on top, you need to slide down to see. They only show a dot in apps.

Mine is not europe version, I from Malaysia and mine is Malaysia version and navigation gestures is there and I am using it. Sorry I cannot help you on this.
[Oppo Find X Questions & Answers] Achillias:
Just another question. Does your Find X support L1 or L3 on YouTube and Netflix?
[Oppo Find X Questions & Answers] Andrewtst:
L3 only which means Netflix only playback at SD quality.

Unbrick tool by One-Team - EypCnn

First: This tool seems to be from EypCnn, One-Team. All credits to them!

EDIT2: I no longer own this device, so i will leave this thread here for people to use. But don't expect any direct support from me :) .

What can this tool do?:

Restore phone to Stock(International) Firmware (S048) Marshmallow (Locked & Unlocked bootloader)

Fix Lost or bad Signal / IMEI any software Problem

For who does this work?

Pretty much any Lenovo P2 Variant (Chinese and International)

Phones which can access bootloader(you have to boot into it)

Works on Locked & Unlocked Bootloader

Installation aka. Flashing-Steps

Put your phone into bootloader (which is also fastboot) mode.

Download the folder and unzip it.

Connect your phone to your pc.

Go into the unzipped folder and open "flashall - stock reco.bat"

Wait, for the process to end, your phone will reboot on its own.! A stock lenovo bootlogo will show up ;)!

You can disconnect your phone cable from pc and plug into a wall charger, just to be safe. Once the lockscreen is showing up, you're done.

If you want to flash Custom Roms:

look below:

WHEN MOVING TO CUSTOM ROMS NOW:

1. Boot to twrp. (Make sure it is pietwrp from telegram or the official 3.2.3 or later version)

2. Select WIPE menu option

3. Select data partition

4. Change file format to f2fs or anyother.

5. Go back to Start Menu of TWRP, choose Reboot Menu Option

6.Reboot to Recovery

7. Repeat Steps 2 and 3

8. This time select EXT4 when changing file format

9. Do Step 5 and 6

10. Wipe System,Cache and Dalvik-Cache partitions

( for older twrp versions: 10.1 If you're on official twrp 3.2.3 or lower, you have to flash pietwrp or latest twrp now !)

11. Flash your Custom Rom, Gapps (optional) and latest Magisk(optional)

12. Wipe Cache and Dalvik-Cache

13. Reboot. First Boot might take a few minutes but never longer than 7minutes.

If it takes longer, you're encounter a so called bootloop.

Comment hear if that happens, containing information on your twrp-version, rom, gapps, magisk and mods(if present) you're using.

When you corrupt your internal Storage or geht TWRP Error 1001, Error 7:

1. Repeat steps 2-6

2. Repeat steps 7-8

Download(Official Link)

2nd Link(reuploaded because some couldn't download it from androidfilehost): https://drive.google.com/open?id=1wUOZiTwW8mo0IheAGONyj9-QnjimnY2M

I will help if questions arise.

[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] eried1:
Wait.... downgrade to MM? Does this mean you can regain your signal or did [MENTION=9635396]krishnakoonala[/MENTION] get it wrong?

I have a spare P2 lying around that I never used because the IMEI got corrupted and I couldn't flash the bootloader files since I was unlocked.

I assume this wouldn't solve my issue?
[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] krishnakoonala:
My p2 was bricked and , stuck in boot loop. I followed the above instructions, 10 mins into it , it booted with mm version, the same version when i bought and booted for 1st time. It was like a new phone to me.

So i assume if one has upgraded to noughat and want to downgrade but is worried he might brick his device, one can take a back up and try this tool. It works flawless.

No harm in trying this one if ur p2 can boot up mate. Give it a shot. Good luck

Cheers :)

[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
[MENTION=6751057]sm00th4f3[/MENTION] bro, i wanna know, does this tool flashes full ROM including modem files etc, even on unlocked bootloader?

What is the state of bootloader after using this tool?
[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] sm00th4f3:
It flashed everything you have when you buy a new phone. And no, it doesn't lock your bootloader.

So you can either :

- keep using MM Stock Rom S048

- Update via ota in System like you normally would do.

- Update till latest Firmware, then flash twrp- and then Custom Rom of your Choice.

Bootloader is in the same state it was before you used this tool.
[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
So how does it fixes corrupted modems? it cannot be flashed on unlocked P2 right?
[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] sm00th4f3:
I literally just answered it above somewhere.

(Literally in thread description)

You can flash it on unlocked bootloader or locked as well.

[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] sm00th4f3:
Make sure you do the following steps coming from Stock Rom:

change the file system of data partition to ext4. then reboot while being in recovery to recovery. (Use the Reboot->Recovery Option you can find there)

Doing this will also wipe internal storage, so make sure you backup your stuff.

Then you wipe ONLY system,cache,dalvik_cache.

Flash Custom Rom, Gapps and if you want root either Magisk/SuperSu.

Wipe dalvik and cache. Reboot.

First boot may take up to 5mins at most.

Also when changing custom roms make sure to never wipe vendor, because you might lose mobile data while doing so.

EXTRA: A so called Clean Flash is referring to the following partitions being wiped.

- System Partition (AND NOT SystemImage!! Never touch that)

- Dalvik Cache

- Cache

- Data (Excluding Internal Storage)
[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] myjess:
I flashed this as per instructions.

Admittedly I am trying anything including this to get my real IMEI's back as I flashed/erased too much at the beginning.

The IMEI's from another person's TWRP recovery were ther, but after flashing this, the IMEI's have gone again.

Also, the very first OTA update sticks at 24% and then says update failed.

I have an unlocked S7 from sprint. My son has used it for about a year as a tablet using wifi. It has never been activated through sprint. I am a verizon customer and want to get a verizon SIM working with it so he can have a fully functional phone. I've read at least a dozen different threads on what to do, but don't want to brick the it. It shows 'Invalid SIM card' message when I put the verizon SIM card in it and the phone does not have any of the Samsung bloatware on it. Can anyone help or point me in a good direction, or would it be easier to sell it and find a Verizon variant? Any help would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!

[Huawei MediaPad M5  Questions & Answers] BahnStormer:
Hi, I've recently bought a few Huawei M5 8" tablets as I was after some long term tablets for my kids' school work, etc. I just wanted a compact, powerful tablet with a USB-C port and expandable storage.

I bought one from a UK store and I was VERY impressed.

Two weeks later I went to buy the same and it was 25% more expensive, so I tried another supplier and ordered from there, after ordering, I realised the supplier was based in Hong Kong, but I've ordered loads of devices via Hong Kong before and provided the GSM bands are correct, they're usually fine.... and these don't even have a SIM card, so I figured they would be okay.

The two new tablets have arrived and they're almost unusable: they default to Chinese for everything. I've had this in the past and I can normally install another keyboard, uninstall the unwanted keyboards, but this won't let me install another keyboard and every time I try to use the awful pre-loaded browser everythign defaults to Chinese keyboard, etc.

I then went looking for a Play Store: so I could install some of my favourite apps (and a keybaord) and copy a few things over from the other tablet.... there is no Play Store!!

Now I'm no stranger to sideloading OpenGAPPS onto my Lineage builds, but I shouldn't have to do this for a purchased tablet, should I? I was planning on leaving these as stock as possible.

Can I find a UK/EU ROM that will allow simple, low hassle usage so I can just let my kids fire up Chrome and do their school homework in peace without everything constantly reverting to Chinese keyboards?
[Huawei MediaPad M5  Questions & Answers] konradsa:
That's the way it is with Chinese tablets. You can't rebrand them to European versions, that will usually brick them. Your best bet is probably to unlock the bootloader and install an OpenKirin ROM.

Is there a simple app/apk that allows for a single screen tap to close and lock the display, instead of waiting for the screen to timeout or requiring the power button to be pressed?

Try Power Toggles, there is a switch allowing you to lock the screen with one tap. Forgot to check if the result are similar to the one you can get from Nova launcher - with the launcher you can lock the screen using two methods, one locks the phone immediately but prevents you using fingerprint reader to wake up the phone, the other does not have this issue, but actually locks the screen 5 seconds after switching it off. I'll try to check it today and report here.
