S'Pop 4030D is stuck on a Alcatel logo so I wanted to use OneTouch Upgrade Software 4.5.8.(already installed) to flash stock ROM but I got this warning: "Network error: Check the network connection or deactivate the active firewall." I tried to install a newer version of the Alcatel software from Alcatel servers but Alcatel removed OneTouch Upgrade Software for S'Pop. So I have these questions:

1.Where can I download OneTouch Upgrade Software(no warez, please)?

2.How to fix the network error?

3.Where can I download stock ROM from trustful source?

[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] Zenno:
Last year I picked up a Huawei Mate 9 (MHA-L29), but never really was able to use it as I couldn't activate it with my carrier at the time. So the phone sat in the box for more or less a full calendar year. It was fully functioning, I never rooted or flashed any kind of ROM/recovery on it, 100% stock.

After changing carriers, I decided a few days ago to try and activate it. Initially, it wouldn't power on at all. It wouldn't charge either, even with the original cable (or any other cable I tried). Then I remembered reading something about batteries in a Reddit thread (ELI5: "Why do 'dead' batteries work when you take them out of the remote and switch slots," or something like that) and somebody mentioned a chemical reaction triggered by the body heat transferred while handling them. So I decided to put the phone in my pocket and warm it up between my legs for about 10 minutes, and bam, suddenly it would power on with the charger connected, but it was stuck in a bootloop, wouldn't bring up the charging animation, and just repeated the process of showing the "Powered by Android" screen.

So now I'm stuck on this bootloop, can't access recovery/fastboot menus, nothing. It just powers off and powers on, over and over. Also, it won't power on without being connected to the charger. I've let it sit for as long as an hour or so charging, but it doesn't seem to do anything, as once it is unplugged, it immediately turns off. My computer doesn't seem to recognize it either, when plugged in and going through it's bootloop cycle.

Any ideas? Is this thing hardbricked? Is the battery a goner? What route might I take to go about fixing it, or getting it repaired? Is it even worth trying to get it repaired?

Any feedback would be appreciated!

You can recover without root, coz media are all stored outside system partition (like internal storage or sdcard).

I tried to use Odin to flash my tablet, but I think I screwed up because the device is in Oreo and I tried using TWRP/"No-verity-opt-encrypt-5.1"/SuperSU.

1. You can edit system build.prop or vendor build.prop, not both.

1a. Copy build.prop to any folder, edit, save.

2. Reboot to twrp, mount system or vendor.

2a. Twrp, advanced, file manager. Rename original build.prop to build.prop.bak, copy edited into system or vendor.

3. Reboot.

by order on PC. Check your tab and accept anything pop up. Reboot and it's good to go.

I don't know.

With this method, you need to patch a recovery_ramdisk image to boot the system with root access

And then, you can't access to twrp anymore with patched image (but anyway, for me, this twrp version does not work anymore with EMUI9 ! => touch screen doesn't work).

Install magisk : patch your recovery_ramdisk

Then reboot bootloader.

Fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk patched_boot.img

When reboot, hold volume up button. As if you want to go to recovery.

But in stead recovery ,your system will boot. And magisk is installed ?

Checking your headset

One of the easiest ways to test your bluetooth headset is to see if another device (e.g., phone, laptop, PDA, etc.) can detect your headset. If not, then your headset is bad. If they can detect it, then we can turn back toward your phone andd see what's up.

I hope this helps! :)

[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Questions & Answers] Days Tech:
Things are now better and I believe thst the heat is a software issue. My phone now runs around 30 when idling at no use and gets to around 40 when downloading apps. CPU is around 50s when watching videos, but battery stays in the 40s. The reason why I believe this to be a software issue is because my temperatures when playing games, doing benchmarks, etc are similar to when I watch videos, which is a much higher workload. I also don't experience too much throttling as I was still able to get approx. 267 000 in Antutu.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Questions & Answers] hgoldner:
You should anticipate that heavy graphics (gaming, movie watching), etc. is going to raise the temperature. That's perfectly normal.

Yeah, but watching a Youtube vifeo raises it just as much as playing PUBG Mobile on HDR settings or running an Antutu Benchmark. My overall temperatures keep improving, though. Might have been an issue with the data transfer feature.

Hey guys, good morning!

Two weeks ago, I noticed that my gear S2 was draining battery too fast (100% at 8AM, at 11AM was at 25%). After that, I noticed some icons (Gallery, Settings and other apps) where replaced with a white square, and the device was a little laggy.

Tried to unninstall some apps, and they weren't removed (the device keeps the message "unninstalling" forever), but the apps dind't show anymore on the Gear app on the phone. Tried a soft and hard reset, both unsuccessful attempts (said that the reset was completed, but it kept the apps, photos, and all the settings that it had before).

And finally today, when I tried to turn the device on, it is stuck on the Gear S2 boot screen logo. Tried to enter Download mode (wireless), but it gets back to the logo boot. The only thing I can do right now is enter in reboot mode, but none of the options seems to work.

Anybody can help with a solution? :confused:

[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] AsItLies:
this from gsmarena (they have some of the same bands, not all):

2G bands	GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 - SIM 1 & SIM 2

CDMA 800 & TD-SCDMA - China

3G bands	HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1700(AWS) / 1900 / 2100 - Global

HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100 - China

4G bands	LTE band 1(2100), 2(1900), 3(1800), 4(1700/2100), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 20(800), 38(2600), 40(2300) - Global

LTE band 1(2100), 3(1800), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 34(2000), 38(2600), 39(1900), 40(2300), 41(2500) - China

It's odd though, using frequency check, it seems to have the China bands listed for the global one... Compared to the chart above anyway. It's pretty disconcerting not being able to be sure of something as important as this...

On second glance, it looks like freq check has ALL the bands - for both china and global, listed together under global. I'd bet the gsmarena info is accurate.
