[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] pudonggaijin:
Exact same problem as dieneverknowing. I am going to try some new batteries and see what happens.

- When trying to charge, it says charging but does not charge

- bought a charger that will just charge the battery separately - working fine so far except one issue.

- whenever I try to power off the device (hold the power button till prompted to turn off), it'll power off then it'll power itself back on after 3 seconds. I did a hard reset to see if that would fix anything but it didn't. The only way to keep the phone off is to take out the battery. But once I put the battery back in, it'll power on by itself.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Toodeep:
im having the same issue on my old tilt. i took it apart. and still no luck . no visible damage, gonna clean everything and put it back together.

was this problem ever solved. sorry for bumping an old thread. But this is my same issue.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dieneverknowing:
Hey don't worry about bumping an old thread. I meant to do the same when I got my phone fixed. :o

Turns out it was the sync connector that had damage. I sent it to PPC Techs for this service and it made it like new. I never tried to take it apart, but I could only assume that at some point in time, one of the pins in the connector became separated from the motherboard.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Toodeep:
thats what it looks like to me. i have it narrowed down to the board with the usb connector. but not sure yet. How much was that service. i would replace it my self if i can find that part at frys today.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dieneverknowing:
Service was $80, and then you had to pay shipping both ways. I had looked into replacing it myself, but my small electronic skills aren't good enough for me to risk it on a pricy phone. I remember seeing the connector part somewhere online for $40 I believe, but I can't remember where though.

But PPC Techs had it repaired in less then 24 hrs after receiving it. And they did a great job. It feels more solid then when I had originally bought the phone. :cool:
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Fellofftheporch:
I actually need some advice... :confused:I want to root my S8+ SM-G955U but I am... well scared. So I have read thread after thread about rooting as a noob like me should do. The problem I am running into is should I or am I going to regret it? I honestly don't grasp all of it. I am not completely stupid but I know I am treading into all new waters. I have been reading and reading in the forums for almost 2 years now and I've got to do something once and for all.

I guess I am asking if anyone can point me in the right direction for properly rooting my phone? Or at least the easiest for me to do. Any advice or anything that could help me would be beyond appreciated!

I don't want to be a 2 year noob when the 3rd year rolls around.

Thanks in advance.:laugh:

Ask friend, who root phone. They no need same phone. Mabey not same phone but same brand. Probably they can walk you with basic steps first time. Also, watching some YouTube should help too.

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] masaforce:
Hey,

I actually have a Note 10 plus, rooted with magisk and TWRP, but the Note10 and S10 are very similar, so Ill ask here too (ive waited like 15 hours and got no help in the note 10+ sub).

I have done a full nandroid backup. I restore it with TWRP, and I get stuck on boot, the note 10 screen (not samsung screen), and it never boots. If i restore only data, i get a bootloop.

I wipe dalvik and cache. No difference.

The backup IS NOT corrupted. I tried multiple backups and all is the same

What am I supposed to do? Im completely lost, and found literally nothing from google or here. Also if I flash firmware with odin after the restore, it will boot, but I lose all data, and eevrything. So thats not gonna work.

This is unbelievable and hasnt happened to me when i was doing this last time a few years ago.

I havent had access to my phone in over a day because of this now, its a complete disaster.

Please help. Thanks in advance guys.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] KuraKira37:
I'm not sure, but maybe the nandroid backup isn't compatible with your device.

The thing is that these new phones have a different partition scheme. As you're rooted, you normaly boot on the recovery partition. But when you flash that backup image, maybe it doesn't take into account that partition setting, and that's what messes up your phone.

This is only a small hypothesis, but it can definitely explain your problem. As I've never done any backup myself, I'm not sure about this solution, but maybe try restoring the data on another device, then transfer it on your N10 with USB for example
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] saoudien07:
I am experiencing the same issue.

Device: Tab S 10.5

I am tring to restore a Backup made with TWRP. the restore ends without any error, and when I reboot into System, it stays on Splash Boot forever!!

I though about a corrupted Backup, so went with Fresh Start install + TWRP + Root, then Backup TWRP.

Same issue, stuck on Splash Boot forever!!!

I even tried to unRoot just after the restore, it do not change anything!!!

I also noted that when the Device boot, there is a brif "double vibration", maybe notifying something is wrong.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] benjieb:
Hmmm... Actually Utouch seem to be working great with 11.1.105.

No wifi problem either.

BUT still can't set a language other than English and kind of forced to stick to ZUI launcher.

So as of now phone with Chinese ROM is enjoyable and very powerful, despite room for improvement.

As for ZUK Z2 Pro in the past, official Chinese ROM are far better than any 'global' release... But need some tuning.

PS: I love uTouch
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] achicasar1069:
My phone is with CN 11.0.575 and parched with the ZaZz version (The .bat 00_flashrom.bat anywhere), i already have TWRP Recovery and now is rooted with Magisk.

I dont know, but i want to try with that ROM. I just can with the CN 11.0.575 ROM, i areally want to try with ROW, im using QFIL 2.0.1.9 .
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] benjieb:
Can't help you this thread is only to discuss stock Chinese Rom.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Poda_jj:
does the chinese version have any problems with the notifications?
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] hehk1234:
Row 11.0.284, no problem with gesture, everything for me working Fine, I root with magisk and I don't lose the ota updates hehe :3 ... One thing I miss on every ROM (include chineses) is exfat support for microsd card :/
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mburaky06:
Please read the topic title
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] benjieb:
I guess this is the main issue with Chinese ROM... Whatsapp notifications don't work well.

Still running tests, but there are like 4 places to watch for to help with notifications:

- permissions

- notifications from the app setup screen

- Auto start

- Battery optimisation

....

And probably more.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mburaky06:
Without notification how can you use a phone ?
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] benjieb:
Notifications are fine!

It is only WhatsApp that has issues is limitations.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mburaky06:
Is there a need for unlocking bootloader to flash stock rom ?
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] benjieb:
Nope,

read my mini tutorial further up. You need to "enable unlocking" in developer options, but you won't actually unlock it! Hence you stay stock and get OTA !
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mburaky06:
Okay. Everything is just like u said got two ota updates. Notifications are not stable but not a big deal. But my mobile signal rate is too low dont know why. Any info about it? Thank you
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] benjieb:
My signal is fine. Have you checked that Z6 Pro have the bands used in your country and/or by your provider?
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] x-geo:
if i flash the cn rom... how do i disable chinese apps and install google play services?
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] benjieb:
Disabling most Chinese apps is very easy. Either from Zui home page or go to settings / apps and you can uninstall or disable what you want.

Installing google play : I did that through the app centre (this is the chinese equivalent of google play) search for google play and you're done.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] andy88de:
Are notifications fine out of the box in last cn version or you've to set some permissions?
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] kanschelskes:
Does anybody know ???

Can somebody dowload that TWRP ???
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] benjieb:
Has this anything to do with the subject of this thread?
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] benjieb:
See previous posts about that.

To summarize, most notifications like calls, sms, emails... Work fine.

I had more trouble with whatsapp. Needs to allow in autostart, exclude from battery optimization, allow notifications... And to be safe, launch it manually after phone reboot.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] andy88de:
Just a question more, can someone prove if call recording works well, both sides and clear sound, I need it for working purpose.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] benjieb:
Did a short test. Works perfect.

Please give feedback when you love to CN Rom.

Z6 Pro community is surprisingly tiny. We need to emulate it.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] benjieb:
Whatsapp issue:

after a couple of days of testing, it seem notifications work most of the time BUT no sound or vibration !

So message alert appear on screen, notification bar and AOD screen, but no sound. We definitely need to find a solution for that.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] kanschelskes:
Notifications

Did you try Edge Lightning from PlayStore?
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mburaky06:
Maybe we all start using WeChat ? I believe we need to supress that security app completely. But without root access we can not do it and with root can we get updates ? I dont know...
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] andy88de:
Installed CN, I came from zazza.rom this works really better. I need to relock bootloader in order to get the OTA update. Really easy, have some problems with drivers installations.

Good connections quality, WiFi and 4G.

Very stable, good call sound quality.

I'm still testing it, but looks fine.

Greatest problems so far:

1) you can't use morelocale 2 cause the home crash.

<S>2) try to change launcher but zui home came back every time I'm gone Home.


<B> solved mind that no gestures are supported</b>

<S>3) WhatsApp no notification sound, Telegram, Gmail </S> <b> solution found, look three post after this! </B>

4) always on display doesn't work properly, it shuts off after a few seconds and remain black until you move the phone.

5) no stickers in foto app

6) wake up with tilt too sensitive, it continues to wake the phone at every slightly movement.

7) chop movement doesn't activate flashlight.

Another question, has the phone an IR port, it seems so! In case how to use it?
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] benjieb:
Great! Welcome to CN rom!

What version are you running?

To your question about IR port I don't think there is one. The thing close to jack port are hands-free mic and light sensor for brightness adjustment.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] andy88de:
Firmware version 1.1.105 St

Thanks for the answer, the little dot saw as an IR sensor.

I'm trying to get notifications working,

All notifications arrive instantly, Telegram with sound
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mburaky06:
I found a solution to this WhatsApp issue. We know the massage comes but no warning (sound vibration etc.) I paired my mi band 3 with phone lock the mi fit app like WhatsApp and now when a message arrives ( even the phone is on sleep mode) my band vibrates. So if you are interested on wearing like this staff you may consider it.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] andy88de:
Good but I've found one better[emoji2]

Use:

NotifiCon - notification sound manager you can download it from app store (free).

1. Just set the app you would like to have sound notifications in NotifiCon (See photo 1)

2.choose the notification sound (photo 2)

3. In general settings choose the volume I've set it to 12. (photo 3)

4.Then put the app in Autostart whitelist in security app (photo 4)

Boom! you have WhatsApp and Gmail notifications with sound!

[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] benjieb:
Great!

Good to hear there are 2 potential fixes ln the table. Will test and report back

Can you desctibe the steps to do that + does it require owning a Mi Band 3?
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] benjieb:
Hmmm unfortunately this might not be a practical solution.

Try to record / listen to whatsapp audio note when the app in installed... Can't!
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] andy88de:
I've heard about this problem, but I've tried to record and send voice messages without any problem.

View attachment 4831357
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mburaky06:
Well yes must be an another device to give output to us with vibration or sound I believe.

1) I've downloaded and installed the mi fit app.

2) Then paired the app with mi band 3 (Already have it)

3) Give the authorization to mi fit for accessing notifications ( the app asks for it)

4) Do the same things to mi fit that we have done for WhatsApp (autostart white list protection etc.)

5) Finally wear the mi band 3 and enjoy vibration :))

Maybe other bands or watches can give the same result.

I dont know is there anyway to manipulate the mi fit app and give notifications without any band or watch
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] benjieb:
Hmmm... Ok, but having to buy a mi band 3 is hardly a solution for everyone.

And what happens when your band3 is not on / connected to the Z6 pro. Will whatsapp notifications still make sound on the phone ?
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] benjieb:
When I play a voice note, whatsapp triggers a notification in the bar... which makes Notificon ring and it stops the message from playing.

FIX :

Go to the system notification settings of Whatsapp and disable notifications for "Media Playback". Done !!!

While you are there you might want to disable other notifications that would normally make no sound, but since we have to use (I hope temporarily) Notificon will not make point less sound. it will be the case for instance when you send a video...
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mburaky06:
No. Also notificon is not working on me either
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] andy88de:
I've found that if you want to change launcher you can.

1) Install Nova launcher

2)open it

3) go in Nova settings>choose the nova launcher as default launcher

If you'd like to use any other launcher just follow the previous steps and choose what you prefer as default.

Attention: you have to use virtual navigation buttons, 'cause gestures are note supported (only back works).
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] benjieb:
That's right, the issue is u-touch no longer working. But it is possible to change launcher.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] benjieb:
Adding to list of issues adaptive brightness. Works but not as expected and often have to stop and reset.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] andy88de:
Adaptive brightness is slow...but effective in my case.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] x-geo:
And if we install Google Play Services in the same way it was done with Huawei Mate 30? possibly the notifications works better ...
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] benjieb:
What way? Please explain.

I can't imagine this issue having to do with play services, but whi knows...
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] x-geo:
is with a apk

[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] benjieb:
Good news !

We should expect new major update of CN rom based on Android 10 soon!

Beta versions are already being tested by Chinese users. Version will be 11.5.xxx and 4 versions have already been released for test. Hopefully stable update will come in a matter of days.

Get ready ;)
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] m-tomaleh:
Hi everyone... I am just curious to ask is the major update out ??

and for those who bought the device from Aliexpress do u recommend the CN version after all.... as the price is 280$ at this moment!!

and one more question would it be possible to see a custom Havoc os for it??

THANX ALL
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] benjieb:
Android 10 update is still at test stages. And from feedbacks you can read in Lenevo Chinese community, there are still a lot of bugs... current test version is 11.5.170.

I still think that if you can live with english language, CN rom is best. But ROW version seem to be very stable now.

Notification Issues

hi all,

i'm very new to a lot of this, but I bought a chinese Z6 Pro back in May from CECT shop because I was so impressed by the specs and price and desperately wanted to upgrade from my LG V20. Once I got the Z6, I was happy with everything being so smooth and responsive, as well as the camera and amazing battery life. However, I was never able to get my notifications to work properly, despite LOTS of fiddling with all the permissions, settings, battery options, etc. Now I am hearing that there was a global launch of this phone over the summer. Is that correct? I'm assuming the new version would work as expected like any other android phone in regard to notifications

My stock chinese Z6 is updated to ZUI 11.1.105 ST, but i still don't get notifications. For me it's not just whatsapp like someone said earlier in this thread, it's basically everything: facebook, telegram, slack, gmail, and lots of other stuff. Pretty much the only notifications I get reliably are relating to ZUI or the apps that came on the phone - which i don't use.

Is there anything I can do software wise? I don't want to lose the benefit of OTA updates though. Should I just sell this phone and use the money to get the EU version, if there is such a thing now? Sorry, I don't understand how a lot of this works, but any help would be much appreciated! I love this phone, but it's simply unusable because the notifications are broken.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] carlo41786:
Stuck on 11.1.105 ST

Hi All,

Are you having the same issue as I do?

I flashed my rom to CN rom following the steps provided in here.

Got 2 OTA update right after flashing the ROM.

Latest update that I got was 11.1.105 ST. and that was 2 months ago.

Since then, I never got any update at all though my phone works just fine.

Then I found out that there is already zui 11.5.xxx available for Z6 pro via OTA but my "ZUI Update" still says that there is no available update.

I tried basic TS like clearing cache, restarting my phone and trying other network but to no avail.

Any recommendation on how to fix this.

Thanks,
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] benjieb:
Chill out my friend! You have the most recent official release. Lenovo has been working on a new Android 10 rom for a while now, but it is still not out. Latest beta/test version is 11.5.170.

Only available to selected chinese users, but there seem to still be a lot or bugs. Enjoy 11.1.105 for now as -really- it is quite good.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] benjieb:
Hi!

This is odd. I have been using CN rom for a while now and I get all notifications fine. Only thing I have to watch out is if I reboot phone, to be on the safe side I launch whatsapp manually once in case the system blocks auto start.

Make sure you: remove apps from battery optimisation, autorise autostart in Security app, and lock it in recent app screen.

I get notifications just fine for telegram, Whatsapp, Bluemail, Textra SMS... no issues.

Only other fiddling required is to use Notificon app to fix the fact that whatsapp notification generate no sound. (see first post).

Oh, and if you really want "EU" rom, simply move to the 'Global rom' otherwise called ROW. Latest version is 11.0.350 ; users report it is not as smooth as CN rom, but works fine, has google and notifications out of the box and multi-language.

Only other downside is that it won't be updated as often / quickly as CN rom.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Nein01:
Thanks for the reply, info and tips! I will boot up my Z6 again (I had switched back to my LG out of frustration) and try to make sure I do all the things you said. But one question: with that third point you mentioned, do you mean to say I have to have every app that I use pinned/locked to the recent apps or else I won't receive any notifications from it? That seems a bit excessive.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] benjieb:
Well, for an app to generate notifications, it means that somehow it is not fully closed. Locking an app in recent screen help prevent from the system to kill it.

I personally locked all the apps I listed earlier. They all work well AND I have no ram issue at all.
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] benjieb:
Thread updated + link to stable android CN full stock CN file 11.1.105.

Be aware, new update to Android 10 has not been released ! Version is 11.5.170.

Might have a few bugs. Anyone testing it, please report feedbacks
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] kzchy:
Now seriously considering flashing the official Chinese ROM.

I can't seriously call the global ROM official. It's complete garbage imo.

A few questions before I flash it...

I reckon it's stable with functions such as AOD, dark theme, face unlock and properly functioning double tap to awake?!

Also are there any icon issues as in when some icons would appear differently than the other? Or is Google Play icon looking normal and not like what it currently looks like on the global ROM? (Can't directly attach the screenshot, see the link below)

https://ibb.co/pJvcn3N

And finally is it fully translated to English? How good/bad it is?
