Yup, same here. Wobbles. Makes grinding noises sometimes when opening. Once in a while with this error even:

Also rarely use it, but when I do, I'm genuinely happy it actually pops up first time. Usually it's grrrrind open close open close error try again success.

Very bad design, imho.

Never had any issues.

I use it for face unlock... Lots of times a day.

Use face unlock so it pops out many times a day and you won't have this problem. ;)

If you use your front camera everyday, you shouldn't have a issue where it gets stuck. It's when you don't use it for a extended period of time, it could get stuck.

[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] jdidtht:
Launched no issue. The only.liquid imwould ever think about using would be rubbing alcohol on a microfiber, and only damp so none goes down the slot, but even if it does it will evaporate quickly. That said, I don't do that, I use microfiber rags, and I'm in construction and my tool bags always have crap floating around dust dirt, chunks of drywall, dust, and so far nothing has gotten down that or in between the slot walls and camera. It's been nothing but a pleasure to use coming from 6t, and pixels and Samsung's. Sucks your having issues. I'm using the tech 21 case, also will say, great case, very happy about that
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Eric214:
I go weeks without using it (not that vain to be obsessed with selfies) and I haven't had any issues with it working as intended and no first or fuzz gets inside it either. Maybe a quality control thing with some units sealed and working properly and some not so much?

It's not a design flaw. You need some space or you will have a friction issue.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] propeldragon:
It needs to have a lip at the top. It's a design flaw.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] DOVahFeyN:
Agreed, the instant I saw the design, I said dust would eventually get in the camera and either scratch the lens or the pop-up mechanism would get stuck. All they needed to really do was add a lip at the top as you said.

Hello I am new here and a noob in the scene. I was trying to upgrade my Trinity D810 with my Vista Ultimate 32Bit. And I keep on getting the same error after going into the 3 Color screen (on my D810). Is there any solution?

And If possible can it not involved installing XP juz to get it to work? Cause I lost my copy of XP. :P
[P3600 Software Upgrading] Mr_Blonde1971:
Goto www.trinityguides.info and it explains how to get it working in Vista, you need to install different drivers and it will work, I am using Vista and have the Dopod ROM on it
[P3600 Software Upgrading] genm79:
Thanks.

But I have been trying to follow the guide there.

But I can't seem to undate the drivers of XP on to my Mobile.

My connection from my PC to my Mobile is only through USB, and if I follow the guide, I cannot update the drivers as it ask me to not authorize USB connections.

I'm at a lost of what to do now.
[P3600 Software Upgrading] Mr_Blonde1971:
I think you need to read it again, You should be changing the drivers in Vista for the HTC drivers from the USBAS folder, Then after you turn off usb connections in WMDC it uses the USBAS driver to connect. I found that I had to update the drivers every time I wanted to change a ROM.

[Samsung Galaxy J2 Questions & Answers] ShaDisNX255:
Hello and welcome to xda, where we can do our best to help you

Usually, the steps to root the G532M are as follows:

-> Activate OEM Unlock from developer settings

-> Reboot to download mode and connect the phone to the PC

-> Run Odin and select the TWRP Recovery for the G532M

-> Once you've flashed TWRP, enter the command to enter recovery

-> Go to the Install menu in TWRP and flash the root zip of your choice (either supersu or magisk)

-> You will probably need to format data since the data partition is most likely encrypted

If you have any question of any specific step, let me know.

[LG V40 Questions & Answers] shng:
I got a so-called "GSM-unlocked Sprint LG V40" from ebay, and I received it a week ago. when I powered up the phone the first time without a SIM card, it went directly with an "Activate your device Please wait while we activate your device for network service." message on the screen, and I had to wait for about 10 minutes for it to finish before I could do anything with the phone. I thought that was OK, since it did not have a SIM crad, and probably it's just some initialization thing. I then put a SIM card in the phone and did some tests, it appeared to be fine. A few days later, I had to restart the phone, and with a SIM card in the phone, the "Activate your device Please wait..." thing after the phone was powered up would take almost forever to finish. And when that "Network Activation" thing is on, the phone is pretty much locked and I could not do anything with it. What's worse is the "Network Activation" process is not only run immediately after powering up, it would come up every 1-2 hour, and each time it would take a few hours to finally give up with a message saying "Activation incomplete." I've seen it just went to the "Activation" loop indefinitely in the last few days. I've tried with WIFI ON or OFF, 4G LTE data On or Off, but nothing helps and the "Activation" loop just continues forever. As an example, I restarted the phone at 11:10am this morning, the "Activation" thing took 2.5 hours to complete (see attached picture). It started again in a little over an hour before I went out for a walk, and when I came back an hour later, the "Activation" thing was still on.

I contacted the seller, and he claimed that the "unlocked" Sprint V40 "unfortunately" has this problem--good for him to acknowledge that after I found it the hard way...he did not disclose this nasty problem at all on ebay. I can return the phone, but then I'll end up losing more than $50 for shipping+import tax.

Does anyone know if there's anyway to stop that "Network Activation" from running? Will paying someone to have the bootloader unlocked and change the ROM help?

Thanks

Package Disabler Pro

Install Package Disabler Pro and disable all Sprint stuff. I'm not sure, but I think it's the Carrier Setup Wizard (com.sprint.psdg.sw) that you experience right now...
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
That would be my guess too
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] jass65:
bought mine sprint gsm unlocked as well from ebay. That screen only comes up after every reboot and only took 2 minutes at most to go away.I found there's no way to disable it.I used package disable to shut down anything sprint related and even the carrier wizard/set packages.Nothing worked.So i just converted it to US open FW and now it's gone as well as sprint's other garbage plus you get pie
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] shng:
Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately, it doesn't work, but it does help in shortening the annoying activation time in a great deal: Before trying your suggestion, I did a factory reset first, and that dramatically cut down the bootup activation time from a few hours to a little over 5min. I then followed your suggestion and installed the latest version v1.6 Package Disabler Pro for LG. At first, I just disabled Carrier Setup Wizard, but that did not help. So, I disabled all sprint crap except the one that could not be disabled via Package Disabler Pro but still no luck. However, with most Sprint crap disabled, I finally managed to have the annoying bootup activation time shortened to about 1min45sec. For those of you saying the bootup activation only took 1 to 2 minutes, I guess whoever sold you the phone might have already disabled those Sprint crap before you bought the phone.

So, it looks like this annoying "Activation" thing may not be from the Sprint crap, or perhaps it's caused by that one sprint package which could not be disabled (see pic). No matter what, I think whatever program behind it is pretty buggy.
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] shng:
As I originally thought, that annoying activation screen could only be removed by replacing the sprint ROM. Did you pay someone to replace the FW, or did you do it yourself? I appreciate if you can point me to a DIY instruction. I prefer doing this myself. Thanks.
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] shng:
Sure enough that one package/service Sprint Android Requirements which could not be disabled by Package Disabler Pro is the one responsible for the after-boot activation screen. I've found a few posts about bloatware on some very old LG devices such as G2 all point to Sprint Android Requirements as responsible for the Activation thing:

But Sprint Android Requirements cannot be disabled via Package Disabler Pro, I guess one other way is to root and then remove Sprint Android Requirements altogether.
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] nyttliv7:
ADB

What about uninstall Sprint Android Requirements with adb?
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] shng:
I don't know. Package Disabler Pro runs on the device, and Sprint Android Requirements is probably installed on the system partition, so without ROOT it could not be disabled. Using adb should do it.

I have ADB environment on my old NB for my old mobile phones, but the NB's mother board is dead. I'll need to set up the environment on the current NB I'm using. I'll give adb a try and report back.
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] shng:
adb doesn't recognize V40

I'm not able to get adb to work with V40. At first I just grabbed an adb installation someone posted here on xda, but that did not work. I figured it's probably too old, so I downloaded from Android developer site the latest Android SDK Platform Tools v.29 and installed adb&fastboot etc. from there. That still didn't work--adb&fastboot just couldn't recognize V40. I've tried with two non-LG older phones and they all connected to adb swiftly. So I did a factory reset again to V40, but there's still no luck with adb after that. I've tried both File transfer and Photo transfer on V40 USB connection, but neither worked. I'm stuck for now.

【update】Just found out that in order to have LG devices make USB connections to PC painlessly, it's necessary to install LG USB driver on PC for the particular LG device.
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] shng:
adb disabled all sprint crap but still no luck

I finally managed to make V40 connect with adb and use adb shell command to disable all sprint packages/services, but that annoying boot activation still comes up on every reboot. It's driving me nuts.
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] nyttliv7:
While you're on it

Uninstall "com.sprint.psdg.sw" too...

Worth trying :)
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] shng:
Yeah that's something I was going to try next anyway. So I tried, and guess what--not only there was no luck still, but also now the bootup activation reverts back to seemingly forever. Waited for almost half an hour until it finished and then factory reset. I guess I'll just try disabling some of the non-sprint services.
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] nyttliv7:
Octoplus

If nothing else works, you can always unlock bootloader, root and flash pie... It will cost you a few $, but definitely worth it :)
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] shng:
Octoplus or Vlad? I'm confused

Did you have octoplus or someone else (Vlad?) unlock your v40's bootloader & flash PIE? I saw on another thread you talked to Android4Lif back and forth on waiting for the service and paying for it etc. You recommend octoplus, but Android4Lif uses Vlad, and he's now complaining Vlad bricked his phone. So I'm confused--which one did you go for the service?

I'd really prefer doing this sort of things myself unless there is no other way but paying someone else to do it. Back in the old days, HTC devices have tons of free information&guides available for unlocking bootloader/falshing ROMs. And I've always done unlocking/ROOT/falshing myself on my old phones. I guess the landscape has changed in the last couple of years since I bought my last mobile phone before the recent purchase of a V40--those who have knowledge on unlocking are unwilling to share now.
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] motogvasyag:
Hey guys, I can flash the firmware from V405QA instead of the sprint and it will be clean, without sprint applications, and this is 9 android.

Flashing 9 does not have to unload the bootloader, but I can do it.

The firmware will take 20-25 minutes.

And I will not make your device a brick, I have already flashed a lot of these phones and I know all the nuances

First thanks for this great rom. I don't know if i am right, but can someone confirm that you can add only one fingerprint? When i want to add a second fingerprint, the system tells me that the process to add a fingerprint stopped.

And how can i activate the navigation bar with the dot? (Google pixel navigation bar)

Edit:

To get the Google Pixel navigaton bar to work. You'll need to change Recent App style to Stock. After that the bar will appear, but swiping up will cause a freeze for me.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] sirleeofroy:
Hi Guys,

I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction here, firstly, I have indeed used the search function and I am more than aware of the many cases of dead tablets with charging issues. As such, I have also tried all of the proposed solutions with no joy so far....

So my N7 2013 is basically my old work tablet that was never used, literally sat in my drawer for 3 years not even out of the box but a couple of years ago I started to use it, loaded it up with a custom ROM and everything was well, no issues whatsoever as it was a brand new tablet. Now, my PC monitor has a QI charger in the base and I had been charging the tablet on there for months but one day it was left on there all day and when I got back later on that day, it was dead..... It was warm to the touch, normal for charging but would not power on. No indicator light or anything.

When plugging in the usb cable to charge, I get nothing, no indicator or anything.

I have held the power button for well over a minute and nothing.

I have held the power and volume down button for well over a minute and nothing.

I have done both of the above with power plugged in and not plugged in, nothing.

I have replaced the battery with a brand new one, nothing.

I have checked the contacts for the QI charging meet the tabs as I read this and the USB charging is on the same circuit, nothing.

I have vaguely read something about quite literally "jump starting" dead N7's and I have not yet gone down this road, I'm hoping there is something obvious I have missed.

Can anyone suggest anything else?

Thanks in advance! :good:
