[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ericaiken:
Just got my fire hd 10 9th Gen running 7.3.1.0. Made a bunch of permission changes and disabled a bunch of apps. parked it for dinner, system grabed and OTA to 7.3.1.1. Added several new apps and apparently removed a few options. Like enable adb and the ability to disable some apps (which I disabled under 7.3.1.0).

It appears there is no root yet for this ver/gen.

Any thoughts on getting adb access and/or disabling OTA's? (enable adb is missing from dev menu)

It says there are several more updates it will do "next time the device is not being used"
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asakurato:
What do you mean by enable adb? Do you mean USB debugging? I haven't checked after update, but my tablet still does connect with USB debugging notification, so adb should still work.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ericaiken:
several posts about disabing OTA discuss turning on adb access and reference

system->dev tools->enable adb

I suspect I'll still need root, but I know my phones now have adb access restricted, so it appears maybe the fires disable adb access by default.

Ok, got adb access, needed to manually install Amazon's fire usb drivers. took several passes to get it recognized.

I am curious how you disabled apps if you didn't have ADB...

settings>device options>about fire tablet

touch the serial number on and off until developer options are enabled

Go Back

Settings>Device Options>Developer Otions

Turn on

USB debugging=on

adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.amazon.kindle.otter.oobe.forced.ota

adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.amazon.device.software.ota

adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.amazon.device.software.ota.override

[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] Brnkipnd:
My husband's phone vibrated while in his pocket. When he looked at it, it said it was in the process of erasing. It's been in his pocket all night. When it was done, the phone restarted and it was like the "new phone start up". We tried calling Verizon but their customer service is closed due to the holiday. My husband continued with the start up and EVERYTHING has been erased from his phone. WTH just happened? It sounds like a hard/factory reset but it was locked, not off, and has literally been in his pocket for the last 6 or so hours.
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] Anand Prabhu:
Seems like auto factory reset was turned on.This will automatically erase the phone after 15 failed unlocking attempts.Failed attempts can happen when the phone screen touches the thighs.

Hey guys! :D

I tried searching the forums on an answer to the question I'm having, but no luck. So.. without further adue, my first topic..

Is there a way to disable GPRS, and have only UMTS (and 3G, HSDPA) connections?

The reason I'm asking this, is that whenever I move into an area without UMTS coverage, it automaticly switches to GPRS. When this happens during a phone call, the call gets dropped! Also, while having a GPRS connection, noone is able to call me, without me noticing.

What I'd like to happen is that when there's no UMTS coverage, there will not be a data connection, at all, not even GPRS. (of course, GSM will be available at all times).

I've tried the utilities Bandswitch and CommMgr Pro (www.commmgrpro.com), but both do not seem to offer this feature.

Any idea's? :rolleyes:

[General Questions and Answers] .::l)@$T@N::.:
I have redmi note 5 pro android phone which stops charging within 3 sec of connection(Charging not visible but LED light shows charging.). when i disconnect charger phone shuts down it self with shut down tone.

after that phone can not be switched on for around half an hour. When switched on phone works normally with existing battery % no sudden battery loss on restart.

Only problem is phone not getting charged and shuts down on charger removal.

tried otehr 3 charges of Mi and same problem exists.

Please help.
[General Questions and Answers] ktmom:
Does the phone charge when it's turned off? You have tried different chargers, but have you tried different cables?

Does the battery, or phone get hot when plugged in? That could suggest the charging circuit or battery is damaged and the over temperature sensor is stopping it from charging. It could also be a rogue app. If it charges when off, but not when booted, try it in safe mode.

Try charging overnight using a computer USB port.

If you plug the device into a PC, is it recognized? If not, again try with different cables and take a good look at the USB port. Search online for information to clean a USB port on a phone. It may just be really dirty.

You may have a damaged USB port and need to get it repaired.

Hello. I want to buy a strong power bank for laptops, emergencies, etc. I see these two:

https://www.amazon.com/Portable-Charger-Krisdonia-60000mAh-External/dp/B07LBLQ9YY/

And:

https://www.amazon.com/Renogy-72000mAh-Portable-Generator-Technology/dp/B0791WDZTW/

Which one is better? I ask because is strange that the Renogy is extremely cheaper compared to the Krisdonia, but why?

Both look strong but which one is the best?

Thank you
[General Accessories] Anna L Rivera:
iMuto power bank is best then other. Because it has big mAh battery saving and Two ports, 20,000mAh and affordable. It's worth $29.99 maybe cheap.

I like MI Power Banks. They are so powerful and effective. You must give them a try if haven't used it yet :)
[General Accessories] eathtespagheti:
I cannot see the prices, but usually if there's a big price difference it's fake, there's no precise way to quantify a battery size other that what the manufacturer says, so probably those 72.000mAh are probably fake, check the reviews on others website, maybe you'll find more info about
[General Accessories] JarrettBen:
no price of the product you post.

I THINK no one want to buy it:(
[General Accessories] lol80000:
If you are look for the cheaper versions of the same stuff that is on Amazon you better go to Aliexpress. Also I saw somewhere a nice list of cool looking powerbanks from there, for example a powerbank in shape of a hand grenade.. let me try to remember where I saw it..

---------- Post added at 03:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:14 PM ----------

XIaomi makes awesome power efficient devices. for example my Mi Band 4 holds the charge for almost a moth! Now compare it to galaxy gear....

---------- Post added at 03:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:15 PM ----------

Ok here I found that list I mentioned above: 33 nice looking Aliexpress powerbanks

I still incline on ordering the grenade one - but it would be a problem to travel with this one? Or TSA got used to things like those?

I agree, I also have a MI power bank and I am absolutely happy about it!

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] klabton:
Hi.

I have strange problem. It starts few weeks ago with no purpose..

Sometimes my bottom buttons doesn't work. It happneds for example, when I'm tying to scroll email with Dpad. Sometimes when i try to scroll thru files in total commander. After scrolling few lines, they just stop working. Upper buttons works. Screen works.

What I did untill now with no results:

- flashed official rom thru PC

- flashed AT&T Official

- disassembling and cleaning lower buttons.

It looks like software problem, but it happends on clean official roms without any 3-rd apps..

Some suggestions?

Thx
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Dillsnik:
do a search for white screen in titles...ur problem may be the dpad connector comes loose and the white screen thread talks about how to fix it
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] brorex:

Thx Dillsnik :)

I had this problem with a Hermes and I couldn't fix it no matter what I did. And I tried everything.

It seems it's some weird hardware problem. Soon you'll have problems with the softkeys too.

If anyone fixed this (except flashing a new rom, because that doesn't work), it would be an interesting thing to know.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] klabton:
Well, when it happends, all lower buttons stops working. gren, red phone, softkeys etc. :)

I just plug and unplug connector few times and for now it;s ok. ;)

I will report if there will be some changes.

Maybe it's time for some changes :D I think Kaiser's will be cheaper in a moment :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jasjamming:
mine has been doing that for months (lucky my hermes is my backup device). its really strange but then again expected after ive dropped it so many times as well as throw it at my colleagues when they piss me off.

1) dpad stops responding after some time.

2) call/end buttons stop responding

3) softkeys dont work after this

4) 90% white screen - i can still see whats on the screen but it looks like its washed out and saturated to a sever point

the only thing you can do is if your device is still under warranty get it fixed.

I can't say with any certainty this will help anybody - but I experience this same issue, regardless of the rom... What I always do - hit the Email button... I know it sounds odd, but it always seems to work... It launches email, which (if i don't need it) I just close right away and then the other buttons seem to magically work... I know it sounds lame - but honest - it works on my phone...

[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ericaiken:
anybody have success getting a recovery menu on the HD 10 9th Gen?

I have adb access and can boot between normal, bootloader->fastboot, and into recovery, however there is no menu or anything to navigate, just a white trangle with and exclamation.

In an effort to stop OTA, i've blocked all inbound/outbound traffic on my Firewall to/from the OTA ip's. I need to clear the system cache to delete the pending OTA download on the system before it updates. Then I want to test if the firewall is truely blocking, but I can't find a way to remove the pending update files. Clearing the cache should work if I could find a way.

thoughts?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AmznUser444 Dev:
Hold down the power button and volume up to access recovery menu.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Michajin:
Just press and hold the power button, then press the volume up button (from the screen with white triangle with and exclamation). Unfortunately all you can really do here is a factory reset... Which would stop your update, once you get back into the fireOS disable the update from ADB (covered under your under post). Most of this stuff is being covered in the "New Fire HD10 2019" thread.

[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] christmasdesparation:
Hi all, I really messed up my 6T today, after messing with the new update and root, I ran the flash_all.bat file (from https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-6t/how-to/rom-stock-fastboot-roms-oneplus-6t-t3862516) to restore images but didn't realize it would clear all my data, I stopped the process after it ran for a few seconds in a panic but now my phone only has the fastboot screen and fastboot.exe from my cmd shell is unable to do anything (just errors out for most commands), is there a way for me to at least retrieve my photos from my phone? I've tried 3rd party software and they all require usb debugging which I can't activate due to my phone not having a boot image. Any help would be a miracle, thanks.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Scott:
I would try fastbooting a TWRP image. From there you may get access to your internal storage. You can then copy it off to a PC. I say may because you could encounter encryption issues when trying to first boot into TWRP.

If you do hit encryption issues, you could modify the "flash all" batch file to remove the -w command so it doesnt format. However, I thought that it gave you an option to wipe or not?

If it did wipe first, your a gonner my friend. You are too late.

Hope this gives you some insight on where to go from here.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] christmasdesparation:
Thanks, that's what some others have been telling me, I have tried to fastboot flash a few versions of TWRP and blu spark (I had the latest android version I believe, so even tried the Q version https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-6t/development/recovery-unofficial-twrp-touch-recovery-t3861482), but none of them are working, I get a failed to load/authenticate error when doing fastboot flash <img name> and fastboot flash boot <img> doesn't error out but I still can't get past the fastboot menu.

I see the flash_all script has the -w in it, but yeah it never prompted me about wiping all data. I managed to kill the process a few seconds in, so even if it was deleting, large files like my photos and videos should still be existent on the drive somewhere, right? Unless the -w command does a really fast purge of the files?
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Scott:
THe -w command does a very fast wipe. So if it was at the beginning of the scrip that more than likely like your files are gone.

Run the script again, this time delete the -w command. This will be your best chance of finding any data.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] christmasdesparation:
I see, if the wipe has already happened, are there more low-level ways to retrieve the data? Since it couldn't have purged from the disk all 20 gigs of photos in such a short time span. Though I'm guessing even if there are fragments left like that they're most likely corrupted and unusable?

Anyway, I took it to a shop today since I couldn't do much else my self, we'll see what happens. Lesson learned to always back up before messing with the boot.

Thanks

And to properly read and understand what it is you're attempting to do.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] christmasdesparation:
lol yes but in my defense I was already kind of freaking out since the fastboot wasn't working like it did previous times and messed up my normal boot
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Striatum_bdr:
Probably not possible as user data are stored in a virtual filesystem, mounted over an encrypted partition.

That's the reason why police forces regularly ask phone makers to put a backdoor, it's very hard even for a high tech forensic specialist to find data on a phone
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] christmasdesparation:
So I actually re-ran the flash_all.bat script without the -w flag and I was able to fast boot flash into twrp (twrp-3.3.1-30-fajita-Q-mauronofrio to be specific). I can see what i believe are my files in the internal storage, but encrypted, however twrp never prompted me for a password, also going to the twrp terminal and entering twrp decrypt <passcode> did not work. Anybody know how to get twrp to decrypt? For some reason flash_all.bat did not restore my original boot or anything so I am only able to boot into recovery mode or twrp from the fastboot on my PC. doing fastboot getvar all shows that my slot-unbootable:a is "yes" if anyone knows how to make sense of this, it would be appreciated, even if I just need to copy my phones internal storage on to my computer and run 3rd party software to decrypt it that is fine

Thank you
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] christmasdesparation:

I have just installed Lineage 16 and the battery is draining super fast. E.g. 30% during 6 hours of standby with mobile data and wifi turned off. What I noticed is that this does not happen in flight mode with wifi enabled.

I had Lineage 15.1 before, and the battery lasted 2-3 days.

Installation steps:

- removed data

- wiped everything possible

- installed newest stable firmware V11.0.3.0.PCAMIXM from xiaomiupdater

- installed official lineage 16 build 12.22.2019

- open gapps stock

- installed latest drivers/vendor V11.0.3.0.PCAMIXM from xiaomiupdater. I only did this after noticing there is a problem, but did not solve the issue.

Additional installations:

- magisk 7/manager 20

- youtube vanced

- camera 2 api enabler
