[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stalliox:
Hello.

My nexus 5 is stuck on a bootloop. It has bootloader locked, usb debug not activated and no custom recovery. I am trying to extract /system because I have very important data, photos, etc.

I tried to wipe cache, I tried to adb sideload a rescue ota with standard android recovery but nothing, phone is still in bootloop. I also tried to flash/boot custom recovery with fastboot but I can't because locked bootloader.

How can I flash custom recovery with BoardDiag? From what I read around the web this should be the only way I have at this point. If I can install cwm or twrp then I will be able to use adb pull. If you have other methods to extract my data please let me know.

Thanks

[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] guevarragv:
I have an Essential phone that replaced a LG G5. The Essential is not rooted, I have an app that I use to gain access to the Hotspot Tethering settings.

When I turn it on, I am able to tether my previous LG G5. But am unable to tether any other phone to it. It will connect, but no internet available. Any guesses?
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] gk1984:
Carrier blocked probably. Add net.tethering.noprovisioning=true to the build.prop. You need root though. I know you said you're not rooted though. Essential or Google seems to have fixed tether blocking in the past several months.

If you should have tethering on your account I'd contact support or your carrier.

Hi!

Are there any Samsung S9+ Custom roms out there that are fully working with Bank ID, netflix, Dual Sim, Pokemon Go, and Citric Workspace out there?

Ive tried a lot now but all of them have deal breaking problems.

Resurrection ROM: Bank ID freezes and Vipps wont work. Magisk doesnt pass safetynet. PoGo fail.

PIE BETA roms, they have RMM removed!!! which I need for Citrix I guess...

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Mikalhicks7:
Hello if there is anyone out there who can help I recently switched out my screen on my lgv30+ ls998 and for some reason my loud speaker doesn't work. I've ordered another one off ebay and that one didn't work either. Not sure what's going on. The pins look like they are touching the correct places.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] TPMJB:
I'm not sure how relevant it is, but when putting the ZTE Axon 7 back together I put in the speaker backwards (really hard to tell) and it (obviously) didn't work. Screw around with the orientation and see if things change?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Mikalhicks7:
The LG v30 has a contact pin situation with almost all of the hardware components including the speakers which makes it easy to put in and out. I just can't understand y the speaker isn't working out of all things. I tried to finesse the placement of the pins a little but still nothing. I just keep getting an extremely faint crackling noise from it

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] denco7:
Having decided last weekend that my Kaiser was way too fast, I loaded it up with bloatware.TouchFlo,HTC Cube,6 Tab Home Plugin,New HTC Default Theme,Audio Manager, Home Customizer,Comm Manager and Kaiser Tweaks. Most of it I loaded as .cabs or .zip thru Missing Sync for Mac. I also downloaded Windows Live Services and set up push email for my @live account. Everything works great except the phone now spontaneously connect to MediaNet (Edge) all day for no reason. The connection is not followed by email or anything else, it just connects. When I check Task Manager 95% of the time Activesync is running but not always. Have set Activesync from " as they arrive" to manual. The phone still connects for no reason. The notification that the phone is connecting comes up , I press cancel, right away it tries to connect again and again and again, then stops and five minutes later it will connect again. I know this is long but I know how you all like enough info.Any thoughts on causes or solutions?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] whk:
The phone is doing what AT&T (or your phone service) told it to do - constantly make sure that you have a connection to them. This will drain your battery somewhat. What you want is that it should DROP all connections unless you TELL it to connect.

I think that you want to search for Kaiser Tweak -(oh wait! you already have that program) you will notice that you can make the phone connect only when you have told it to - i.e. make an internaet connection or check email. You can have the phone drop the connection one minute after that.

Have you actually used the Kaiser Tweak program? If not you should use it first/next.

I believe that this will most likely solve your problem if I have understood it correctly.

(PS - I recommend that you use the SEARCH at the top of the forum before posting next time.)

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] denco7:
Thanks Bill...... Already went thru Kaiser Tweaks and set every single setting to advised setting. Set all the connection settings to connect manually and to drop the connection after one minute. It wil not do either.Google is my friend. I have google searched this forum and have used forum search. In the past two days Mon. and Tues. I have read thru more than 2000 posts and wikis before I decided to start a new thread if I have missed something I am Sorry and would have appreciated a link to this information that I have missed. I have had the phone since last Nov. and have been pretty faithful in reading this and the HTC wiki and forum and cannot figure this out.

I just got the Amazfit Bit. Unpacked, put it on charger. Screen turned on first with a phone - watch icons then it started showing a battery charging.

Reading instructions asked me to download Mi Fit app, I did. Asked to sign up, did it with google, asked weight, size etc, then to set how many steps. Now asked me to turn Bluetooth which I did and it shows paired with the Bit. However when I click "done" it just tells me "couldn't sync, try later".

Battery shows about 80% charged. Should I wait for it to be full charged? I tried searching for any solution but nothing works. Some say to find Mac address but I can't get past the phone - bit icons on the bit screen...

Using Android 8.1.0 on a LG M700m.

Nevermind. It seems that needed to be 100% battery. Worked first try.

sm-s767vl

I obtained an inoperable device from a friend. He tried rooting, tried flashing, even tried to flash a factory binary thinking he could circumvent Straight Talk's ridiculous bootloader unlock policy, but in the end, he pretty much bricked it. It wouldn't boot into recovery, it wouldn't boot into download mode, and it was stuck in some sort of device test mode. I was able to find out that in that factory binary mode, Odin was able to recognize the device and connect to it. I flashed the BL, AP, CP, and CSC files in Odin 3.13 I think was the version. Now it's back to stock. On the plus side, doing so removed the Google account associated with the phone. I am trying to pull the 'boot.img' file so you can patch it.

[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] Droidriven:
Once you find the contact points, if it comes to having to solder the leads but you want to avoid potential issues with soldering that may result in damaging the hardware, you can try holding the wire to the contact and then using a hot glue gun go glue the wires in place. Just make sure that you can verify that they are all well connected and making solid metal to metal contact and don't disturb it or move it around during flashing/interfacing. Faulty contact during flashing/interfacing could brick the device.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] :
Deleted
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] Droidriven:
Probably so, if you can carefully remove it in a manner that will allow replacing it with no issue.. If you don't find what your looking for, you can put it back in place.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] :
Ok thanks I'll try to carefully remove it :)
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] ZafotheNinja:
Under that shield is the cpu, no obvious contact points under that one. I was referring to the smaller shield to the left of the battery connector and the one below it (other side of the board from the black shield)

I do not know which points are jtag, just pointing out some that may be. I'd try the points you can get to before pulling off shields, those suckers are soldered on and it's easy to knock other components lose if your not careful. (removing the shields pretty much requires a heat gun setup)
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] :
Oh ok where are the contact points that you can get to without removing the shields?
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] ZafotheNinja:
Right above the battery spring contacts, opposite side from the black shield.

I've got my eye on one of these for probing contact points: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3615910

Easier than soldering that small.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] :
Can you please post a picture of the contact points?
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] ZafotheNinja:
https://imgur.com/a/hMW87cN

the points in blue are right next to what seems to be a power ic (S527R if you are interested)
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] :
Ok, Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] Droidriven:
The contacts you are looking for should be individually labeled to identify which contact to attach the correct lead to.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] ZafotheNinja:
The only points that are labeled are those above the battery connector, not sure if electrically they are 4 or 8 pins, but that's what we've got on the labeled front. If it's not those then we hit it with a logic analyzer I guess.

The other points are educated guesses based on size/shape of the pad, seem to be probe points, not for components. Plus the grouping seems a bit odd.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] :
I am new to JTAG and I have a question. Those points are labeled 'V P R F' so if I get them wired where do I wire them back on my JTAG adapter?
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] Droidriven:
Yes, those appear to be the six pins that you are looking for. As for what to connect where, you need to identify which pin is which on the motherboard, then you can research what those specific pins are to be connected to on the JTAG. It may also depend on exactly which operation/process you are attempting to do with the JTAG. In other words, if you want to do "this" operation, you connect them like "this", if you want to do "that" operation, you connect them like "that", etc..
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] :
Thanks but, how do I identify which pin is which?
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] Droidriven:
By finding board schematics for your motherboard, if you can find any.

Or

By a method like this or a similar method, your are just going to have to do some research and reading about how to identify JTAG pinouts because every device is different.

https://www.cnblogs.com/shangdawei/p/4815819.html
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] :
I am willing to do some research but, where do I research at? I can't find anything online.

Edit: thanks for posting a link.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] Droidriven:
That is where it gets tricky, there are no definitive guides an no two devices have the same pinouts or pinout order.

You will just have to use different variations of search terms until you find something that helps.

Something like..

"How to identify JTAG pinouts on android"

Or any variation similar to those terms.

Or, if you can find your motherboard ID, you can research that specific motherboard to possibly find scematics for that motherboard that identify the components on that board.

No one said it would be easy, this is usually done by people that already have the required knowledge of what they are dealing with, that is why info is hard to find, because they would have no need to search for it, therefore, this kind of info is not readily available to the uninitiated.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] ZafotheNinja:
Another good resource I came across, an overview on what jtag is, how it works and an example of rooting a device: https://blog.senr.io/blog/jtag-explained

It references the Jtagulator for finding jtag pinout, though it looks like droiddriven's link does the same thing.

JTAGULATOR: http://www.grandideastudio.com/jtagulator/
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] :
So I have to buy something like the JTAGULATOR? Or is there a way to identify pinouts without buying separate hardware (like the jtagulator)?
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] ZafotheNinja:
Volt meter to make sure you are not hooking your jtag to more than 3v and trial and error.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] :
So just try different pins in different spots on the adapter until I get it right? Also those contact points are so small, how do you wire them?
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] ZafotheNinja:
TS100 and a lot of patience. Thus why I have my eye on that nano probe station. :D
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] :
I don't have the TS100 so can I use hot glue? Or another soldering iron? Or should I buy the TS100?
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] ZafotheNinja:
As long as it has a small tip, any soldering iron should do. I have heard of using hot glue, but you could just as easily rule out that set of points because of a bad connection if you use hot glue.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] Droidriven:
Exactly, it can work, but pretty risky, in my opinion.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] :
So what do you guys think I should do? I'm not sure if my soldering iron will work so I may just have to use hot glue.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] Droidriven:
Buy a pro soldering rig
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] ZafotheNinja:
Did a few tests on those pins, they all seem to be independent and none are + or gnd, which means we have 7 unique pins to test. Also, those are small even for a ts100, good luck!

Edit: Point sets 2 and 3 under the shields are all pulled to gnd with varying resistances, can pretty safely rule out those locations at this point. Fingers crossed that the labeled points are the ones we need.

Sounds like the same problem I've been having for over a month lol! My solution? Nano probe station, good contact with the points and no soldering required.

Alas, between $120ish for the station and $160ish for a JTAGulator and probably a few other bits I need, that's sitting at roughly $300 for equipment I cant see myself using in any of my other projects.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] :
You could sell the equipment afterward if you don't want it anymore. But yeah I really don't want to spend anymore, I spent $170 on the box and $45 on the phone. I hope I can figure out something without having to spend much more money.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] ZafotheNinja:
Z-tape? it's a clear tape that is conductive through it but not across if that makes sense. You can stick wires where they go and they make a connection through the tape.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] :
Would it work for something that small though?
