[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] lrak019:
I did soft brick nd fixed it,and now its bootloader is locked and I cant find a way to obtain it right now cause huawei would not provide any codes right now.
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] zgfg:
You cannot root without unlocked Bootloader (like in the title).

But if your phone previously had unlooked Bootloader, you had to keep the code because the code is one and the same for lifetime for the particular phone (with the same code you can always unlock the same phone)

Huawei doesen't provide codes for already a year, but if you searched on XDA (asked and answered really many rimes), code for P9 can be obtained for up to 5 Euros by DC Unlocker or Ministry of solutions

[Oculus Quest] shakamone:
SideQuest is designed to simplify sideloading apps onto your standalone android based headset. It should include everything you need to get started. When you first open the app it is best to open the setup screen and follow the instructions on screen to get setup.

It is important to follow the instructions in the setup screen before you start - particularily installing the OpenStore Launcher app to be able to find the apps on your device once they are installed.

SideQuest Features

Automatic download of ADB platform-tools for your platform - win/mac/linux.

Setup instructions for enablding developer mode on your device.

On device launcher app to be able to open the apps once installed.

Drag and drop support for installing arbitrary apps.

Repository seeding via sources.txt file to preload your own repos for distribution.

Add custom fdroid based repositories to get more apps.

Setup

When you first launch SideQuest it will download the repositories and also download the ADB tools. Once this is done you should go to the Setup menu option and follow through the one time setup to get your device ready to install apps.

If you have any problems you can hit the debugger icon to capture any errors - these will really help to find and fix bugs.

Apps

I will be adding more apps to the repos and I will be notifying of repo updates on my discord server - you can then manually update the repos in the repos section to get the new app listings.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] CMeys:
Every ROM I've built for my Sprint Touch (Vogue) with the PPG Kitchen (any version) even a totally vanilla one including nothing but the basics has caused my phone to turn off after 4 minutes even though I have the power settings not to turn off on either battery or external power. This only happens with ROMs created with a version of the Kitchen. I prefer those ROMs as they are the only ones in which I've been able to get MSCV to work properly.

I don't want the phone turn off at all unless I do it manually.

Please help, this is driving me crazy. Thanks.

Hi,

I updates my galaxy watch by changing CSC but now it is impossible to connect anymore in OneUI!

Wifi connection only is ok

IP Fix ok

Bluetooth Off

On sdb always failed or device offline...

It was ok in the prevoious os version!!!

Maybe someone can help me?

Thank you for help
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Void_Dragon07:
it takes a while try changing the port to 26099 or 26101 it took me like 2 hours on my first try
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] ajp558:
I also had problems resetting CSC back to UK after temporarily changing it to get my Galaxy Watch 46mm to get the new Tizen upgrade. Make sure that the watch is still set to debug mode and developer mode is activated after the CSC change and the watch has reformatted itself.

In my case, I could not reconnect to the watch with sdb until I had manually deleted the sdb key & pub files on my laptop, to force the watch to ask me to re-accept the RSA key and let my laptop connect to it again. The files to be deleted are sdbkey and sdbkey.pub under C:\users\username\.tizen (make sure you can see hidden files in Windows Explorer).

Good luck.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] MrPeebles:
Hi, I have been having problems flashing stock firmware for my s7. Main points are:

- Whenever I would attempt to flash stock rom from odin, I'm using the newest 3.13. The process would fail just before sboot.bin consistently.

- I have flashed this stock rom in the past and it has worked, however it is from the old august oreo update, would this be an issue?

- I have TWRP installed 3.2.3

- I have tried completely formating data and also advanced wipe of system os before flashing

- I ran odin as administrator

- Used different USB cables and computers, same error

- Regardless of nougat or oreo stock rom it will still have the same odin error shown below, as it would always fail at sboot.bin

- I still have recovery images I can boot to in which I activate usb debugging and oem unlock, but because I completely wipe my phone's memory I don't see why it still has issues

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] MrPeebles_:
Also on my phone after flashing is a red text that says SV REV. CHECK FAIL (BOOTLOADER) DEVICE: 4. BINARY 2
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] cooltt:
It means the firmware your trying to flash is bootloader v2 and you've already updated your phone to bootloader to v4. You must use a firmware with version 4 bootloader or above. It looks like this... G930FXXU4ESG... U4= V4 (version 4). So to summerise you use the correct firmware for your device at version 4 or above.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] MrPeebles_:
So it would mean that you can't ever downgrade the bootloader once a newer one has been updated?

[OnePlus 7 Pro Accessories] stu5797:
I can not believe how great this turned out for me! Pictures attached...I have always been a fan of the clear skin screen protectors and I have tried them all! (Skinomi, Zagg, etc) The one company I always come back to is the Phantomskinz brand. They seem to just have the smoothest, glass like feel of them all. The presentation of the protector is awesome and installation was just like any other clear skin, but I thought I botched the install a little bit. Just like most clear skin protectors, the next morning came around and the flaws were gone.

I am could not be happier with this screen protector and my wife could not even tell I had a full body screen protector on it! Highly recommend!
[OnePlus 7 Pro Accessories] lg3FTW:
Can I still toss a case on it if I wanted to? That looks great might look into that once my phone shows up. Does the finger print reader still work well?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Accessories] stu5797:
Thanks so much! I do love how this turned out! This phone is so cool! I believe you could toss a case on this but i would not be taking the case on and off multiple times. If you want to use a case, phantomskinz offers a case friendly version. I went with the non case friendly full body.

The fingerprint scanner works perfectly. Just like a screen protector is not even there
[OnePlus 7 Pro Accessories] BossJ:
So I'm guessing if you drop this, it'll still shatter right?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Accessories] stu5797:
I'm not really sure and I hope that I don't find out if it will shatter. I have only shattered phones when I didn't have a screen protector on it. I think this skin will protect it well though.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Accessories] stu5797:
Had this installed 1 week and is still flawless. It even survived a decent fall. Still so happy with this!
[OnePlus 7 Pro Accessories] juggies:
What is the back made of? Plastic?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Accessories] stu5797:
The phantomskinz film on the back is made of the same type film on the front. Gives it a really nice feel and it give the phone a much nicer grip
[OnePlus 7 Pro Accessories] Moonfire:
It's a nicer grip even though it feels like glass? I just got my phone and it seems so dang slippery, wish I could get a Spigen Incredible Shield like my last phone.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Accessories] gnabtib8:
Can you take some pictures of the sides? I checked out the website and shows the back protector covers the sides as well and even the top of the pop up camera.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Accessories] Rishu sharma:

Definitely improves the grip a ton! Love the feel of it.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Accessories] d0e01:
Thank you for the review, I've been looking at this product for sometime but didn't pull the trigger . I always used dbrand , is it hard to install it ? How long it took to deliver? Also really curious about how matte looks...
[OnePlus 7 Pro Accessories] stu5797:
Dbrand is good and I have used them but I don't believe they make one that covers the edges like this one. Install is the same as dbrand if you get the skin and pretty easy. If you get the ultra clear it is like any other screen protector install. Can be a little tough but in a day always comes out so nice for me.

Mine is the ultra clear full body and it has help up perfectly. Even gives it a nice grip and a great feel. Took about 3 to 4 days after I ordered to get to me in the USA.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Accessories] d0e01:
Thanks, i think i'll order one .

[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] Limon_Lime:
Thinking about switching to MetroPCS. I got the dreaded hotspot warning from Cricket, and I've been meaning to make the switch anyway.

To be clear, I'm asking if it's possible to unlock the hotspot feature on my phone without paying for the service. I have the build.prop line and the adb dun line which is how I got it working on Cricket. But I've heard Metro may have additional bypasses.

The plan I want to switch to is the 4 lines for $100 which does not include hotspot. I use about 20gb a month.

Why don't you want to use another keyboard? With SwiftKey or Gboard you don't have to physically switch languages. It happens automatically. Seeing the as your keyboard says Portuguese I think you would benefit from one of those options. Just FYI. ?

To answer your question, the space is there to prevent accidental swipes so I'm not sure that you can actually remove it with gesture navigation.

I downloaded the 9.5.4 fastboot zip extracted it then put the phone on fastboot mode. Install the twrp.img Format all data then go back into fastboot mode. Then in the extracted zip find the flash all-partitions and click it, let it do it's thing. Once that's done it may reboot and get hung up on the boot screen. Just go back to fastboot mode and flash "flash-system-boot-vender". Once it's done It may reboot again and get stuck on the boot screen. Go back into fastboot mode then flash the twrp.img and get into twrp, there you should be able to flash the twrp.zip if not you may have to adb sideload it. After that it should boot up into the international ROM. If you can't get WiFi to show up youll have to flash the sky dragon kernal.

you can find the fastboot zips here https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=294300

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] prometheusrising:
I'll preface this by saying I have ZERO technical background. I'm here looking for help. My S9 Plus was factory reset recently, and I lost all of my data. The phone was not backed up to any clouds. All the recovery programs that I found online say the*phone*has to be rooted to recover the*data, but I do NOT have the skills to*root*it. I had read that my version of the S9+ was not rootable, but then saw Dr. Ketan's post on rooting at https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s9-plus/how-to/guide-root-s9-oem-fix-t3763974 However, he states that the rooting process "...will erase all data including Int SD storage from device," which sounds like a Catch-22 (wiping the data that I'm trying to recover). So first question, is there a way to recover the data? Second question, is there someone trustworthy here who can help me recover it, either remotely or in person? I'm in southern California. Thanks guys.

Thanks Cyclone, mine is the SM-G965U. I thought [MENTION=3931450]dr.ketan[/MENTION] had solved the rooting problem for this model, but maybe I was mistaken. If that's the case I guess the only thing I can do is wait until someone comes up with a rooting solution. I stopped using the phone right away so I don't overwrite the old data (assuming it's still in the phone somewhere).
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Cyclone Emperor:

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] anarchocellia:
Hi, I bought a privately imported Xiaomi Mi A1 64, and it has the latest OS on it, Android 9 build PKQ1.180917.001.V10.0.8.0.PDHMIXM.

However, it has a few non-major, but annoying quirks, such as: when you are in any application, and you get a phone call, there is no visual indication of an ongoing call, you have to switch to the call (e.g. like the iPhone has the green line at the top of the screen whenever a call is in progress). I tried to install a 3rd party app that provides call status at all times, but it didn't work well. I consulted a cellular repair lab, and they checked it and said that this device doesn't have the "international" android Firmware, but some kind of Chinese derivative, that's causing the issues. There are no signs of this, because everything is in English. But they said, it is too risky to try and root it and install some kind of mod to set things right. I consulted several other labs and got similar answers.

I already tried a complete factory reset.

What mod would be recommended for this phone that would be a "normal" Android build for this device, that comes with all the basic features built in?

many thanks

Your best bet is finding a IMEI-checking website. However, if yours is imported from China then it's high chance it is the Mi 5X, which is Mi A1 in Chinese.
