Or... overclock your CPU a little bit. Look in the Tools folder for the OMAP clock program. I'd recommend about 204 for good battery life and a little increase in perfomance. Go 240 if you want more performance but shorter battery life :)
[HTC Excalibur] carltmac:
where about's is the Tool's folder I can't seem to find it on the phone?
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
On the Start menu ?!?
[HTC Excalibur] gixxum:
isnt it "accesories" in the start menu?
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Well in my version of Rick's ROM it's in "My Tools".... either way... it shouldn't take a rocket scientist to find an installed application in the start menu. :rolleyes:
[HTC Excalibur] carltmac:
not tryying to sound like a dumb ass but in Accessorie's it's not there either (I am usseing V20)
[HTC Excalibur] carltmac:
Never mind I found it sorry I was blind I guess.

Also I am wondering how to change the menu's around (if possible) it's not that I am to lazy to figure it out myself but I am worried I might mess around with something I shouldn't be messing around with. What I mean about changing the menu's is how to add and delete blade's from the main screen.

Thank you guy's for your time it is very much apprecciatted.

Also can I put a SDHC card in my phone? How about a 4 GB SD card or is 2GB the limit?
[HTC Excalibur] carltmac:
sorry I had to repost but I have one more question, is setting the frequency to 288 alright for my phone? Is there any chance it will mess it up?
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
It will lockup your phone and never recover. Stay below 250...

p.s. Rearanging "blades" and start menu folders may be a little over your head right now. Do a little more reading first.... :)
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
And yes you can use SDHC cards in your phone...
[HTC Excalibur] pudgedaddy:
I wouldnt push the envelope of oveclocking your phone past 240 or 252mhz

some people can get away with higher numbers it seems. others have issues with the phone locking up and then wont boot up...forcing a hard reset. so be cautious if you venture past 252mhz
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Isnt that what I said two posts above ?!
[HTC Excalibur] carltmac:
THANK YOU FOR ALL OF YOUR HELP MAN!!! It is very much appreciatted. Before you gave me your reply I set it to 280 and it messed up but I was able to change it back (LUCKY) with out a hard boot. I am not questioning your answer but are you positive (I don't want to buy it and then realize it doesn't work) that I can use a SDHC card (4GB) because I emailed some one who was selling it on EBay and he said it doesn't work on my phone?

Thank you once again.

[HTC Excalibur] ItsDon:
The eBay guys phone is most likely NOT running WM6.1. You should have no problems running 4GB in a Dash with WM6.1.
[HTC Excalibur] pudgedaddy:
my bad,,,, i was only looking at his post on page one, and didnt see your post on page 2. Didnt mean to STEAL YOUR THUNDER
[HTC Excalibur] carltmac:
I am not so worried about running a 4GB card but more worried about it not working because it's a SDHC and not just a SD Card?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] JaceAlvejetti:
I updated to the December patch, all went well and as expected on reboot I was unrooted and back to the stock kernel (from elemental x) having the foresight for this I had previously downloaded the December firmware, used magisk to patch it and copied it to my computer.

So currently I can boot standard, when I try to 'fastboot boot' the patched image it boots then shows a block on screen that shows "shutting down" then reboots to a recovery prompt saying my android system is corrupt giving two options to try again or factory reset, try again works as its booting the stock boot at that point.

From there i decided to try the twrp method to see if it makes a difference, it did not and left me in a continued boot to "shutting down" cycle until i restored the stock firmware (without -w)

Interestingly I can flash elemental x through twrp and the system will boot though still without root.

anyone else having this issue or know of a fix I am over looking?

Thanks in advanced.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] hilla_killa:
You can not do the patched boot. Img on dec build. Boot twrp, flash magisk, profit. Or boot twrp, flash twrp, flash magisk and custom kernel. Im on dec and had no issues. If you dont flash custom kernel after twrp, you'll have no touch response in twrp with stock kernel
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] JaceAlvejetti:
Hmm.. I tried that, Nothing better to do so I'll try again, I have and will attempt again the magisk beta, if you see this and recommend the stable, let me know. Thanks!

**EDIT**

I tried both, from fastbooting twrp I flashed the beta, it did the "shutting down" loop, I did a 'flash-all' then repeated the process with stable, same issue. It seem I am the odd man out and may need to perform an actual wipe and see if it resolves.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] Homeboy76:
[MENTION=584157]JaceAlvejetti[/MENTION]

Pixel 3/Pixel 3 XL

- fastboot flash boot --slot all boot.img (from December factory image)

- fastboot boot twrp-3.2.3-1...img

- install Magisk' uninstaller

- add more zips

- ElementalX 1.02.zip

- Add more zips

- magisk-17.3.zip

- reboot system
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] JaceAlvejetti:
That worked, Is there any logic I would follow as to why?, either way I really appreciate it!
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] State.of.mind:
Glad to hear this works, but why is everyone using TWRP 3.2.3-1 and not 3.2.3-2??

Probably because the title of the recovery thread has not been updated lol
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] briantriplez:
Hello, recently I started reading comics and found my old tab lying around so ill give it a go

First thing first it wont boot becaue it had no charge obviously (been there for like some years), then I tried to plug the charger but to no avail

I cleaned the contacts of the charger with a dry brush and start charging which then my tab starts charging!

when I booted, I think it was CM 12 (or 13? the one with andy I believe) and everything is force stopping.

I then tried to go to recovery mode and wipe data, but when i rebooted it it just stuck with the splash screen (the one before bootanimation)

I turned the tab off and tried to boot to download/recovery mode but it would just boot me right to the splash screen again, which mean i cant go to TWRP or ODIN.

And it doesn't always want to turn on, sometimes it just stuck there with black screen (not turned on) even if i press power/combo button, sometimes it pop up to the splash screen. what i notice is that i should wait for the charging indicator to show up before i can try to boot again (i got enough juice now, 56% the last time it turned on)

also one thing i remember is something about F2FS but im not sure what that is, but that might be a clue to my situation so ill just write this down here
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChrisMitS88:
Hi

Same here with P5110 and Slim7. I can't start it anymore....

I didn't use it for some time and then i charged it to 100% and it started but everything seemed to lag. Then i turned it off and wanted to look for another rom or a newer build. But i can't start it anymore. when i plug in the charger i can see the charging screen but beside of that i can do nothing. It has no effect when i push the on/off button or anything else...and it has to be at nearly 100%...
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fred Doe:
My screen broke 6 months ago, so it wasn't used/charged for 6 months. Now I've replaced the screen, but it won't start up anymore. First thing I saw was the warning "low battery", so I charged it for a while. Still, nothing. Charged it for several days, nothing. Checked the battery voltage, 3.80 volts, exactly what it should be I think?

The phone does do something though. When I hold the "on" button, after 5 seconds it buzzes and the screen shows the oneplus logo and android. Just for two seconds, then nothing. Same thing with "on" and volume down, the start-up screen for 2 seconds...

When I use "on" and volume up, I get the screen saying "fastboot mode". And that doesn't go away untill I press "on" for a while.

I can connect it to my laptop, but cant see it. But when I take the battery out while connected to the laptop, the phone will show the "low battery" warning. Connect the battery again, and the logo and android message come on for two seconds...nothing more.

So the screen works, the battery is charged, but no way to turn it on. Tried holding the "on" button for 15 seconds, same result. Just a 2 seconds oneplus logo visible...

I have no clue what this could be, I hope its not completely fubar...

Thanks in advance, Fred Doe
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riddle18:
Hey Fred Doe,

I wouldn't like to hijack your post, but I seem to have run into the exact same issue here.

A friend of mine got his screen replaced, and the phone acts exactly the same as yours.

I have disassembled the phone and checked all connections, but everything seems to be correct on the inside.

The phone does seem to boot, and it does boot into recovery mode (it responds to the button presses by vibrating) but the screen just doesn't show anything.

Only when doing fastboot the screen stays on.

Hopefully someone here can point us in the right direction.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fred Doe:
there's not much to hijack here...sure sounds like the same problem. At this moment I gave up, guess its a lost cause..
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dajosova:
Guys, the exactly same thing here. I've tried to unbrick it but failed.... So far what I know is that bootloader is locked.

I would like to know what steps should us do in order unlock bootloader, get screen functioning while getting access back to bootloder (TWRP) so after that we can install a new ROM!

Any clue from the community of OnePlus 2? This phone is still a good phone! Thnx
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheLogicalGamer:
Have you guys tried running the msm tool. It'll restore everything to stock if you can it to work. If either of you have magisk installed it can cause issues with charging while the phone is off I believe.

I mean honestly sounds more like hardware issue that a msm wouldn't fix, but it's weird that your screen works in fastboot.

If you do the msm tool though be aware it will wipe everything on your device, and relock the bootloader if it is unlocked.

Like I said doubt it will help, but just a thought.

Edit: Also make sure you use the correct one for your device.

Edit sorry guys wrong forum ignore everything I said. Apparently xda labs thought my OP6T was a OP2.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dajosova:
[MENTION=7075689]TheLogicalGamer[/MENTION]

no problem. Thnx anyway. I'm still locked with my OP2.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheLogicalGamer:
But the screen does show up & stays on in fastboot?

I'm no expert but any stretch. I just jumped ship from lg my 6t is the 1st OP phone I've owned. But if the screen does work normally in fastboot then it wouldn't be illogical to entertain the idea that it was a software issue. So I mean this is a bit of a chin scratcher.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dajosova:
Thanks for replying.

IWhen I press Power + Vol. Up it shoes Fast Boot screen. Then I connect cable and sometimes I can use command line but can't unlock bootloader with command line. All methods found indicate to use Recovery but since my screen doesn't work on Recovery I'm stuck.

When I press Power + Vol. Down (for entering Recovery) screen it goes all black but the capacitive buttons and Volume button give back a vibration response, as if it have entered Recovery Mode but since I can't see nothing on screen I can do anything either.

My bootloader is locked because I see that info via command line.

Thanks anyway

PS: I think something is corrupted. My OP2 was unlocked much time ago. I frquently change ROM's and have also updated TWRP. The only thing I did was disassembling the phone in order to change a shattered screen glass.

I've also tried different methods and installed in my pc different Qualcomm drivers, ADB, etc.

I'm getting close to the point of testing with broken touch, buying a new touch screen but with frame or giving up completely and buy a new phone :|

The last option get me in doubt because I would like a phone wich is good and fast and decent battery but not with a premium price... and popular so I can unlock it without hassle in order to install root apk's.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] gabri84sv:
Hi guys,

I flashed twrp, rooted the device with magisk, installed substratum (now no theme installed) and xposed with gravitybox and whatsapp extension.

The phone are all ok but I haven't the animation of charging battery when the phone are swich off, I've the screen on with logo's android one.

Can I flash any animation of charging battery? thanx a lot and sorry for my english :p
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] mac12m99:
This is a common problem, and is not caused by animations but by twrp or magisk(not sure which one).

Note that offline charging not even start so you need to charge when device is on.

Could you reflash stock boot and try first only twrp and then only magisk?

Knowing the exact cause may help
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] Brugos27:
Did you root on pie?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] hossman:
It is caused by installing twrp. Unlocking bootloader and installing magisk does not affect charging animation - on Oreo or pie

[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] dolpsdw:
In Xiaomi mi A2 (global version no lite) Installing Magisk via temp Twrp (zip) and via Patched boot.img in both cases causes the battery animation to be lost.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Smith_Sam:
Hi Guys

Newbie here on Xda, so go easy.

I've got 2 s8's (one verizon and other is sprint) - both have been flashed to the U1 firmware successfully.

Have a bit of an issue with the above problem. Everytime a new network sim card is inserted, phone goes into a bootloop after the "service provider update"

Currenty on u1 firmware, have tried to flash back to stock firmware (Verizon and other unit on sprint). This seems to stop the bootloop, but can't get any OTA's.

Have no idea if phone was previously rooted and unsure on how to check this

But ideally looking for a solution to get rid of this bootloop on the U1 firmware.

Have tried searching around the forums and google, but either i'm blind or not much information on this issue

Really appreciate the help on this, stuck with the device that needs to be used :(

[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] vlrgamaley:
how can i restore system, userdata and cache if i had a 16 gb model? i haven`t enough free space to backup these big parts. :c

commands through termanal app works well, but i want to backup all 48 parts of the stock ROM.

change all "sdcard" to "way_to_my_sd_card" through Msoft Word (faster) and run the script in terminal app, but it crashes and reboot in the process.
[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] HeethJain21:
I too have 16 GB model. Its just not practically possible to take backup of all these partitions on internal storage.

System, user data and cache will be changed(first erased and then recreated) if you clean flash a Custom ROM.

And on flashing Stock ROM, you will always have them so there isn't much to worry about their backup.

However if you still insist on taking their backup, there are two ways,

0. Reboot to recovery

1. Take their backup in external sd card.

The commands will be:

su
dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/cache of=/external_sd/cache.img
dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system of=/external_sd/system.img
dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/userdata of=/external_sd/userdata.img

These commands will save them in your external sd card.

2. Take their backup in PC/Laptop and then convert them

The commands will be:

adb pull /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/cache
adb pull /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system
adb pull /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/userdata

These commands will save their copy in your adb folder (so make sure you have enough space in that drive)

These files will have no extension so while restoring them take care of file extensions, so if we want to save them as .img files, we will have to convert them.

Now there are two ways to convert them:

a. Using Command Prompt/Command Line:

In Windows as well as in Linux, their file checksum remains the same, so no worries!

Also, I have restored the converted file (which was converted in Windows) and they work just fine!

Make sure you are running the command prompt/command line from the same directory where your cache, userdata and system files are stored.

In windows:
ren cache cache.img
ren userdata userdata.img
ren system system.img

In Linux:
mv cache cache.img
mv userdata userdata.img
mv system system.img

b. Directly changing their extension by renaming them:

Just rename the files manually.

cache->cache.img
system->system.img
userdata->userdata.img

This will change their file extensions.

In Windows as well as in Linux, the checksum remains the same by this method.

Also, I have restored the converted file (which was converted in Windows) and they work just fine!

Though I would still recommend converting them via command prompt/command line!

Edit: If you are using adb pull, it will take time as userdata and system are big partitions, also not to ignore the quality of USB cable, so be patient, it will take a while!

Edit2: [MENTION=5695293]vlrgamaley[/MENTION] was your friend able to recover their IMEI, I saw you earlier post in other thread.
[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] vlrgamaley:
he wrote on phone "persist" twrp backup from Lenovo forum (in ext4 format), and after that phone works. gsm, 3g and calls also works, but 4g isn`t work and imei = 0 is staying. but calls works, and that`s not bad in that situation.

i try to backup userdata on sd and it crashes and boot again and again :c strange.
[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] HeethJain21:
He messed up his device for good now. He will never able to recover IMEI now, unless by editing persist.

Backup by rebooting in TWRP.
[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] vlrgamaley:
i don`t know why he hurry up with that, but he did it and now no way to return)

backup userdata in TWRP? ok.
[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] HeethJain21:
Well, you could do that infact, as TWRP can backup data, system and cache.

If you want to take their backup in .img format, reboot your device in TWRP as TWRP has adb enabled by default and then follow post #6 (https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=78354296&postcount=6)
[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] vlrgamaley:
ooooooooo, hard for me lol) "adb not found" but adb is on (from cmd on windows), and now phone in recovery. what i did wrong? i so stupid, sry)
[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] HeethJain21:
Make sure you open command prompt from inside the adb folder or direct the command prompt to adb directory.

Open the folder where adb is present, press shift button + mouse right click and then you will see some options like refresh, view, sort by, etc. Select "Open command prompt window here" or "Open powershell window here" or similar to that.

If you open command prompt, then just continue, and if you open powershell, then just type "cmd" and hit enter and then backup.

To check if your device is recognized by pc in adb mode, type "adb devices" and you will see the serial number for your device.

If you have any more questions, do ask, don't do anything stupid as dd commands are very powerful and a mistake could by costly!

Sorry, I missed the screenshot. What version of TWRP are you using?? Please use official TWRP, as mentioned in OP. I am using official TWRP and it works fine for me.

Here is the link to Official TWRP: https://dl.twrp.me/athene/

Download the latest version (3.2.1.0) and save the twrp in your adb folder, reboot to bootloader mode and then flash it. Command:

fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.2.1-0-athene.img

.

Then reboot into recovery from fastboot itself by using volume keys and selecting recovery option

Here is a screenshot when I use adb pull:

Yes just backup mmcblk0p13 and mmcblk0p14 i.e modemst1 and modemst2 which are form the IMEI toegther regardless of single sim or dual sim device.

Just use the commands for modemst1 and modemst2

Also you can backup efs using Lyuu's TWRP.

modemst1 and modemst2 together are known as EFS
