FAQ

Q: Instructions unclear, phone stuck in bootloop

A: Either do this:

Download this folder and use one of the two ".bat" files. Boot into Bootloader via Volume Down and Power Button. --

It will flash S048 Firmware of our Lenovo P2, after the flash-process is finished it will boot up on its own. Recommended: Do all the ota updates via ota app.

Or: Boot into bootloader, via adb cmd prompt use: fastboot boot lineagerecovery.img , then use reboot menu to reboot into twrp. Clean Wipe phone(Wipe system,data, cache and dalvik-cache Partitions) and try flashing your Rom etc. again.

Q: Instructions unclear, hardbricked my phone!!

A: Thaat shouldn't have happened. Did you screw up somewhere?...

Luckily you backed up your most important files!

I'm on a mobile, but I've checked with both the app and a browser.

It looks like all of the threads are under a single forum.

Hey ! I have a Chinese version of mi8 with Rom Pixel Experience and I want to go back to the MIUI OEAMIFH global (oreo version)

Can I flash it by miflash by clicking clean all and connecting the phone to the computer via fastboot

is nothing getting back from the android version 9 to 8?

Can I just click clean all and press flash? nothing will happen ?

I can not block the bootloader because I have a Chinese version

Nothing will happen when I come back from android 9 to 8?

I am asking for a quick response
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] shineyads:
Was wondering if anyone else's quick charge has stopped working when using a quick charge 3.0 charger? The charging 'bubbles' animation used to go orange and it would say 'quick charging' when using qc 3.0, but mine no longer shows that and takes longer to charge than it used to - I have tried several different qc 3.0 chargers/powerbanks.

Just for clarity, I am not referring to Super Charge using the included charger - that still works (very well), just quick charge 3.0.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] shineyads:
If anyone could get a screenshot of the screen when it says 'quick charging' it would be appreciated, so I have something to send to Huawei to compare with what my phone is showing!

Fixed it - cleaned the charging port and it's working fine again... must have been some dirt on the contacts!

I found this link containing a new update of stock oreo, called OPQS28-85-13-4 and it was strange because two days ago there were two updates corresponding to the December security patch (OPPS28-85-x-4).

https://mirrors.lolinet.com/ar/downloads/

My question is, what will this update be released for today? What will it contain?

This link only contains installable firmware through fastboot, here another link from previous builds https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/cedric/official/

Hi,

I'm a newbie and would like some help pleeease!

I have a jasjam that is running wm6. I bought an iGo Think Outside portable bluetooth keyboard and mouse. They do not support Jasjams... but someone had downloaded the Jasjar driver and installed it and everything worked fine (http://www.mrgadget.com.au/2007/05/imate-jasjamdopod-838-pro-stowaway.html). The only thing is that his jasjam was probably on wm5 judging by the date :( I went ahead and bought the keyboard and mouse thinking I could download the jasjar driver and be able to use them but I can't get them to work (it only gets up to step 5 in the manual)

Just wondering if anyone knows how I can get my keyboard to work on wm6? I wrote to customer support and they can't help because the keyboard is now discontinued and they won't be releasing any new drivers for wm6 :(

Thanks and looking forward to hearing from anyone :)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] m4gnum:
Hi. I purchased a preowned Samsung Galaxy S8 and I am not able to get it running. The phone has factory reset protection and it asks me for owners google account. The seller does not want to provide me with that info because of privacy issues. He said that he deactivated that option through google account, but it did not help. I've tried all the methods that I found on YouTube and through google but none of them seem to work. - the "two finger" method turns on voice assistance but does not enter Tapatalk menu

- the setting method does not work wither because I do not have the "help & feedback" menu

- others like installing SideSync on PC and connecting phone through usb, nor any other that I found online did work

I also tried to call Samsung support but they are asking $70 for unlocking and I would need a proof of purchase with IMEI address, but the seller did not include IMEI, anyways its to expensive.

I went to some phone repair stores but they were asking from proof of purchase from Samsung authorized store, they did not accept eBay...

It's an unlocked T-Mobile version Samsung Galaxy S8 SM-G950U running android 8.0.0.

This is whats the Android Recovery menu showing - 8.0.0/R16NW/G950USQU5CRK1

Is there any new/working way to unlock this brick?

have the previous owner call google. they can track the IMEI and verify the previous owners credentials allowing them to release the FRP lock and making you the full complete owner now

[HTC U11+ Questions & Answers] m23snoopy31:
Hello there.

I have got another problem once again with getting my phone into stock.

I have the HTC u11 + from Taiwan, it's on 1.24.709.93.

So before I had Magisk installed and Unlocked bootloader. It modified my bootloader and then an update came up the update 1.24.709.994. So I wanted to update to it because it's annoying that it just pops up every now and then with a popup. So at first I tried to install it via normal ways by just clicking it to install it. It didn't work, it just went up to 25% when it was trying to install and then the Red exclamation mark came up. I know you can't install an OTA if you bootloader is modified. I got the 1.24.709.93 boot.img and flashed it over fastboot and then it successfully flashed it.

So I downloaded the RUU 1.24.709.93.rar one and then changed the name to 2Q4DIMG.zip then I put it into my sd card. I boot up to my download mode and press the VolUp and start flashing the 2Q4IMG.zip file. But I keep getting the 22_RU_Header_ERROR, 22_RU_Header_ERROR, FAIL22 RU_HEADER_ERROR. I don't understand why.

Can I get some help please?

Thank you very much for reading this.
[HTC U11+ Questions & Answers] BlackTigerR:
The company HTC has never released its firmware in rar format. What you downloaded is a repackaging of the firmware files. Try to flash it was not worth it. The original RUU should only be a zip and signed with the appropriate key. For example 2Q4DIMG_OCEAN_M_DUGL_O80_SENSE90gp_htc_asia_tw_1.24.709.93_Radio_8998-002772-1712201227_release_528412_signed_2_4.zip
[HTC U11+ Questions & Answers] m23snoopy31:
Thank you for the reply my friend.

However I really can't find any RUU files for the HTC U11 +. Could you maybe point out where it could possibly be?

I'm using the EVR-L29 and no matter what App I use, the "Share" icon does nothing. Whenever I click on it, the phone jumps back to the Home Screen.

Another thing that's weird, but not only does it happens in Aquamail...when I try to add an attachment to an email in Aquamail it tells me that there is not a program available to perform that action.

Strange, huh?

[Honor View 20 Questions & Answers] Ducsidu:
There's a pretty good deal on the phone, so I started thinking about it as an option. My main problem is the locked bootloader, so there would be no option to update it after Huawei decides to pull the plug. How many years of support can we expect for the device?
[Honor View 20 Questions & Answers] PalakMi:
You can expect two major Android releases, and some security updates after that.
[Honor View 20 Questions & Answers] Low_Key_Slaps:
So is it confirmed this phone is bootloader locked for all regions? Really wanted this phone as an alternative to the s10, since I cant go without an unlocked bootloader

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] dave2103:
Hi, after being updated to android pie I've had 2 annoying grey bars either side of the screen which cause havoc with the ability to type because they stop me using the numbers 1 & 0 also the letters p&q after much faffing about & some advice on here about unistalling one hand operation + & me searching all my apps & settings, I finally found it under developer options > running services.

The only option is to stop the service, which worked a treat but obviously on a reboot it reappears & I have to stop it again, which isn't a hardship but annoying. So does anyone know how to disable it permanently? I don't have good lock installed either before anyone thinks I had.

I'm guessing the answer will be root & install something like Titanium?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] *Detection*:
Package Disabler Pro can kill it permanently, but it's not running on mine and you did have GoodLock installed and likely installed the One Hand addon in addition to GoodLock, which may need removing separately

Or factory reset
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] dave2103:
Thanks for the info, I had good lock installed on oreo but removed it on pie when Samsung backup restored it but it wouldn't work on pie. Then I wiped it via odin & did a fresh install & made sure good lock was removed from any backup but when the phone restarted the 2 grey lines were on screen again.

Does package disabler require root?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] *Detection*:
Your backup probably restored the one hand addon for goodlock, Goodlock is just a UI for the addons, they likely do not require it

This is only happening to people who have had Goodlock installed previously, it is almost certainly coming from your backup restore - goto Settings >Apps > 3 dots menu > Show system apps > find the One Hand app and remove it, or reset again and do not restore

No it does not require root
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] dave2103:
All done, thanks :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] melchiar:
A friend of mine went to a Samsung Service Center with his s9Plus for couple of questions. One of those questions was what the best method is for charging phone. They said minimum 5% then charge all the way up to 100 in one go. I was surprised with this answer since I did a lot of online research on this matter for my Note 9. I concluded and that the pro's are talking about keeping it between 20% and 80%.. and I'm doing that ever since..

Do we have an expert here on this matter?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] sputnik767:
Not an expert, but plenty of apple and android devices that I have kept for several years and never wore out a battery. My iPad mini is around 5 years old now, no issues. Galaxy s7 edge traded at 2 years old with no battery capacity issues. Old Samsung Galaxy Note 8 (the tablet from like 2012) still going strong, etc. I charge my phone when I feel like it (usually overnight) and take it off charger when I need to. I don't care if it's charged fully, I don't care how long is been charging. My life does not revolve around my phone battery percentage. This 20% - 80% thing is stupid. Your battery will far outlive the useful life of your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] willhemmens:
Not an expert either but I do have the capacity to research this stuff myself. The age of the battery actually has little impact on it's capacity, so just because a device is X years old, doesn't mean it's battery capacity is going to have dropped significantly. It's the charge cycling of the cell that causes the degradation, temperature, depth of discharge, charging speed and the number of cycles a battery has had are more important. While I'd take the Service Centre rep's advise with a grain of salt, Samsung have clearly put a great deal of work into refining their battery technology, so do you need to worry? Probably not.

Although, if you think the battery will far outlive the useful life of your phone, look at Apple and all the batteries they're having to replace.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] sputnik767:
That all I know, and trust me, my devices go through plenty of charge/discharge cycles in the 2 to 8 years that I own them.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] sssyraj:
Hello,

To solve this go to TWRP. Locate a folder named Package_cache inside etc or system or data. I forgot the exact location. But it should be there.

Delete this folder and reboot to system. That's it.. you will get the cache created again and will be able to see the UI in call. You need not to wait for incoming calls. Even you can dial somebody to check.

Hit thanks if it helps you. Cheers
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] gian1:
that was the kind of answer i was looking for, btw it didnt work, i'm just doing full wipes and reinstalling again

path is data-system-package_cache

[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] loudog3114:
To preface this... I still cannot make calls, as those use CDMA, but I have data. I use google voice for calls anyway, so having no cdma is no skin off my back. This will probably work for the Pro or Mate 20

What I did:

Through Verizon chat, I requested specifically that the agent put in a request to add my IMEI to their database. I told them I know the device isn't supported and that I won't be able to make calls, and I am OK with that.

I added this APN information: https://apn.gishan.net/en/apn/verizon/huawei-mate-10

I turned OFF carrier aggregation

I then put in my tmobile sim for a week in the other sim tray, turned off the vzw sim, and let it sit for a week. I only enabled the sim slot a few times throughout the week, and today it finally worked. My guess is it took them some time to add the IMEI to their database.
