Official tools (emma, xperia companion) are useless once bootloader is unlocked

I've been able to fix similar issue using newflasher (even though Xperia 5 is not officially supported):

- download firmware for your device model using xperifirm

- remove all .ta files (incl. those in subfolders)

- extract newflasher files to the same directory where firmware files are stored (appslog_X-FLASH-ALL-A2CD.sin, bluetooth_X-FLASH-ALL-A2CD.sin, .... newflasher.exe ... )

- connect device in flash mode - turn it off (in case of boot loops press and hold combo "volume up" + "power button" and wait till phone vibrates 3 times), after that press and hold "volume down" and connect phone to the PC (once led became green you can release "volume down" button)

- verify there's no driver issue in Device Manager

- run newflasher.exe, answer n (no) to all questions

- wait for "End. You can disconnect your device when you close newflasher", press enter and unplug your phone

Is this working in xperia 5 901SO ??? I have tried this as u said!! But its bricked my phone hardly!!
[YotaPhone] dimex:
Google apps are a necessity for me because my number is within Google Voice, but other than that, I really want to use e-ink in full-time mirrored mode.

Is anyone still doing that on the YotaPhone 2? I'm by no means smartphone addicted, and I don't use social media, but I'd like to lessen my usage even more and maybe help my eyes in the process.

It seems this phone is the most developer oriented out of any other option (root, TWRP, etc).

The apps I use most are: Hangouts, Chrome, Maps, Gmail, Pandora, Spotify
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] glenner05:
Is there any way to force the galaxy wearable app to pop up the qr code scanning option in order to download an esim profile to my german watch 46 lte? My phone has a Belgian sim card but the watch is german DBT. When I open the esim settings in the watch i usually get an error saying my network isn't supported, which actually is true (no esim providers in Belgium for the moment). So I don't see a qr code option unfortunately. However a few months ago I suddenly saw the qr option popping up, although still no esim support for my provider. But this way a was able to scan and download an esim profile from a foreign roaming provider, and it worked.

Unfortunately since a few weeks (or maybe after a wearable app update) the qr option dissapeared again. Does anybody know a way to get this option back? The esim I downloaded back then ofcourse is still working , but its data only and I would like to change to another esim provider, but I can't because the qr code option is gone...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] ytsentas:
I have the same problem. Did you manage to find a solution to the issue of the QR code not showing?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] danergo:
1.) Open "Galaxy Wearable" on your phone

2.) Make sure it's connected to your watch via Bluetooth

3.) 3 lines on top-left corner to open drawer then select "About Galaxy Wearable"

4.) On this screen you'll see version numbers.

5.) Touch 5 times on the Version of "Watch xy Plugin"

6.) Select "Test ESIM Feature" from this hidden menu

7.) Then you can change "Current QR TestMode: off" -> to "Current QR TestMode: on"

After these steps whenever you want to add a provider to your watch, Wearable app will always be forced to open the QR reader during the ESim activation.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] srikp:
Just got my hands on a Samsung Watch 4 with LTE in UK. Above tip doesn't seem to work anymore. Any other way to enter a QR code?

Currently, it just redirects me to my phone provider without giving an option for QR code.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] newbagain:
i have the US variant of the Watch 4 and those steps worked flawlessly for me
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] danergo:
My settings screen has been changed and I can't touch the version 5 times anymore.

It seems Samsung has closed this hole with the new Wearable application.

@newbagain: could you post your screenshot of the about section?

No good bud, I have a Watch3 LTE unlocked directly from samsung and a S22U1 fully unlocked and this only will work if youre on the same provider with your phone that you want to add to your watch. I have two different providers and have been trying to remember how to do your described steps and it doesn't seem to work for some stupid reason

[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] Bulbasaur Army:
some information: I have a rooted with magisk moto g(6). if you need more information, just ask.

question 1: probably the most important one, my USB debugging keeps turning off. after a reboot, it was on before I rebooted but now it's off. I want to know how to fix this and what in the world is making this happen.

question 2: my sim card isn't being detected, I don't know id this is related to my IMEI number being unknown which leads to my next question...

question 3: why is my IMEI number unknown? this one is self-explanatory and I don't know how to explain it more

Question 4: final question, can I update. I am running android 9 with security patch January 1, 2019.

this is my first post here and I hope I didn't make any errors. if you have an answer for any of these questions, please share your knowledge.

I have fixed questions 2 and 3 by reflashing stock images a few times

I also believe that fixed question 1 so now I just really need to know how to update
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] WoKoschekk:
I have the same problem that USB debugging is switching off after a reboot. I'm on stock, rooted with magisk. Do really fix that problem for your device?

You can update to the latest security patch. There are no issues but a little bug related to Magisk. The latest v20.3 causes a bootloop when it's being installed on a clean and fresh stock rom. The solution is flashing v19.3, boot your device and update it through the Magisk Manager to v20.3.

Don't ask me why but it works. :)
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] Bulbasaur Army:
O that sounds like it would work, I used to flash 16 something because I didn't know 19.3 worked, definitely gonna make a few backups too :)
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] WoKoschekk:
16??
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] Bulbasaur Army:
Yes I saw it in a guide once. Why can TWRP sometimes not see my internal storage, it says there is 0 bytes there. Also if my backup is in internal storage, does that mess anything up?

O and when I try to update, it loads into TWRP recovery. Help.
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] WoKoschekk:
I think the best way is to give you a complete guide...

But this only works for PPSS29.55-37-7-2.

If your current FW is PPSS29.118-15-11-2 this method ends up in a bootloop!! Then follow this thread, please.

Find below two download links. One of them is the fstab.zip which contains the patched fstab.qcom file. Unzip it and put the file somewhere accessible for you while following this guide.

BACKUP YOUR DATA IF POSSIBLE!

I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES ON YOUR DEVICE!

1.) Flash the latest firmware based on your software channel from here

2.) Let the phone boot to "Hello Moto" just to be sure everything is fine.

3.) Reboot to bootloder and flash the latest TWRP via fastboot.

4.) Boot directly into recovery by choosing it in the bootloader's menu.

5.) The first boot takes a few seconds and then TWRP requests a password to decrypt /data => press "cancel"

6.) Format /data (do not wipe) to remove encryption. After that format /data a second time and reboot into recovery.

7.) Format /data again.

8.) Now mount /vendor, open the file explorer and go to "/vendor/etc" and erase the file "fstab.qcom". Copy the patched file in this directory. This will disable forceencryption on your device. The trick is to replace the word "forceencryption" by "encryptable" in line 9. ;)

9.) Open the terminal and type these commands:

cd vendor/etc
chmod 644 fstab.qcom
touch -r gps.conf fstab.qcom

With the last command (it's optional) you restore the original timestamp of the file by copying it from another. I use gps.conf because it's pretty short and fast to type. :)

Check the commands with

ls -l fstab.qcom

The output should look like this:

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1680 2009-01-01 07:00 fstab.qcom

It's very important to have the right permissions -rw-r--r-- root root

10.) Almost done... Flash Magisk v19.3 and not the latest v20.3 or you will get a bootloop.

I don't know why it bootloops... But AFAIK the only difference between those versions are the signing keys that are used to sign the boot.img after patching it with Magisk.

While installing Magisk the .zip disables dm-verity so you don't need an additional tool for that.

11.) If you like you can delete some system apps or what ever you want.

12.) It's done! Reboot to system and enjoy your rooted and unencrypted Moto g6 with disabled dm-verity!!

Don't panic if your device reboots one time after a few seconds. That's normal. ;)
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] Bulbasaur Army:
I wish I knew about the fstab file, I assume it removes the need to do the formatting but I already set up everything after I figured the update thing out. Would it be worth it to try and do the fastab?

Also why does it say I can turn OEM unlocking on again in my developer settings? I find that weird. And why when I boot up do I get a screen like this

YOUR DEVICE HAS BEEN UNLOCKED AND CANT BE TRUSTED

(My code here)

Contact something

ID:

YOUR PHONE WILL BOOT IN 5 SECONDS

I would think that my code would be where it says ID. Also it's as accurate as I can make it but in reality the code is overlapping the contact stuff. Just wondering if this is normal or if it's a sign that my phone's gonna explode or something. And are there any custom ROMs I should look into?
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] WoKoschekk:
What exactly is the problem??

---------- Post added at 07:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:08 AM ----------

To solve all the issues with your device you should flash a clean stock rom to get things into shape. There're several things messed up on your phone I think. A clean installation is the basic for all.
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] WoKoschekk:
Encrypted = you have to format /data every time before you are going to use TWRP

Decrypted = TWRP works perfect

Magisk enables the verity_state which leads to those options.

really?

---------- Post added at 10:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:23 AM ----------

What about learning some basics before modifying your device?? I don't get in a car, sit down behind the wheel without even knowing how to drive.

I gave you a very detailed instruction about how to root your device. You will finally manage to get root or not.
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] Bulbasaur Army:
I see, I already had my phone rooted but I didn't see the guide for fastab so I was wondering if I should apply it, I will attempt to do so later today. Thank you for all the help you have given. :)

PS: what does the "---------- Post added at 10:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:23 AM ----------" is it part of XDA?

Im looking at either getting the nice leather case, the official HTC one "Diamond Pouch PO S390" (seen in this thread here... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=403691) or this http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HTC-Touch-Dia...photoQQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1713.m153.l1262

Anyone got a crystal case for their Touch Diamond? If so whats it like?

Im looking to protect my Diamond as I know how easy to scratch and mark they are (its doing ok at the moment but id like to keep it protected and looking like new)

Thanks, any feedback would be appreciated
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] pizzachips:
I got one yesterday ( for $15 CDN ==" since i didn't want to wait for shipping)

from what i've seen so far

Seems like a great case, it is a tight fit for the diamond, so there are some worries with regards to upgrading the battery in the future....

But aside from that, it does its job of protecting my diamond and the change in dimensiosn is barely noticeable to me.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] tomchap:
Moderators Could you move this to Diamond Accessories please, sorry, thought I had posted it in there, but hadnt.

Thanks for the feedback, sounds positive, I want to get a leather case, but at the same time its nice if i can just use it rather than get it out of the leather case to use it.

Mmm, food for thought! :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] pizzachips:
yse mods please move the thread ^^"

i was contemplating the leather case as well before...

the benefit to the hard case is that its as it doesn't make it more difficult to access the phone and you dont need to take it out of the case to do anything

the only pet peeve i have with my case is that the power button on the top left is now a bit harder to press due to the case

just my 2 cents
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Spawn12:
Most of the crystal cases i have come across are dust magnets...so that puts me off them. Ive ordered the pouch today from Expansys...the official one although i have to wait 3 days before they come into stock..
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] R3PUBL1K:
Had one of these plastic cases on a samsung phone - the case cracked after a few days :eek: Lets hope these are different
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] MasK:
One reason why im staying off silicon/crystal cases is so that I could enjoy the flushed screen.

Strange.. U guys don't seem to find it a luxury to have a flushed screen. I love it as I don't need to finger-wrestle in order to tap the 'X' button...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] tomchap:
MasK, thats a very good point! I know what you mean there, very frustrating.

Mmm, think im just gonna opt for the Leather Case. Think I would just get frustrated with the Crystal Case.

Thanks for your feedback and comments guys.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] DanGlee:
Slightly off topic...

But do you think somebody (HTC or after-market company) will produce a soft touch / matt finish rear cover for the Diamond? I mean, its an easily replaceable, small piece of plastic and would protect (or hide) fingerprints and make it less scratchy if its soft?

Just a though... if any external companies looking it at, I'll pay £2.99 for a rip off soft touch back cover on eBay from Hong Kong :D

Hallo,

at first: I tryed to post my problem in the CAT s61 section. But i got the Message that i do not have enough posts/points to do so. It was suggested by the forum to post my thread in Q&A.

I updated my CAT S61 via OTA, same way as the last updates. I am not sure to what version the update was. I had no problems or issues with the phone before.

Very shortly after booting up my phone crashes. I have to boot it up again and get that message every time:

I can't find any useful help on the CAT-Phones site. The FAQ on the Site is mostly stuff for Android beginners. No PC tools or anything.

[General Questions and Answers] gooroo:
Same problem here, CAT S61, no idea if I had an update but today keeps rebooting to Android Recovery Screen,

If I power off and on I can get back into the phone with an annoying "Toolbox has stopped" error, CAT FAQ says to force stop but before I can get that far it reboots again.

Phone is charged.

Did you fix the problem?

Regards, Simon
[General Questions and Answers] St.Dominus:
ToolBox App Cache

Hey Simon, yes i got an email response from the cat support. I was on a buisness-trip, sorry for my late reply. I fixed it.

You have to open the app details of the toolbox app. force stoo the app, and under a sub-option in the apo info delete its cache and reboot.

If your cat s61 is in the restart-loop you can force stop ist by pressing power and vol down simultanously for dunno 8-13 seconds.

You have to be real quick. i needed like six attemps. but it worked for me.

No dataloss at all.
[General Questions and Answers] gooroo:
Thanks Dominus, I did find those instructions before your reply and tried it multiple times, but always before I could complete the instructions the phone would restart again.

I ended up doing a hard reset, not a pleasant experience, lost everything of course, photos were all in the cloud fortunately.

Phone is now operating normally again, I hope this isn't going to be a regular thing, I will certainly persevere with your instructions if it does.

Hello!! A friend of mine have a CAT S61 that after update won't boot and displays this error "Your deviced is corrupt. It cant be trusted and will not boot" but he didn't tried to root it or something like that.

And when I told him to get into recovery and wipe data he got this error of "no such file or directory.."

Do you know how to solve this error or do yo know where I can get the Stock Rom or OTA to flash and try? Ty
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
It seems they tried flashing something that was not meant for their device and now it has corrupted the system partition or somehow wiped out the operating system.

You will need to flash the full stock firmware to solve this. Can you boot the device into its flash mode? Download mode, fastboot mode or some similar flashing mode.

Do a Google search for:

"Return to stock (your model number)"
[General Questions and Answers] AugusTroll:
Ty for your response.

He says he didn't tried to flash anything. But I think the only way to solve this will be flash the stock Rom. The problem is that we didn't found the stock Rom and CAT didn't answered our emails.

Thanks again for your help!
[Razer Phone 2 Questions & Answers] MajicDroidPirate:
Hi, I've searched the highs and lows of the Inter-Web for a solution and all I found is a reddit post with the problem with no solutions.

Basically everything works great but then after 3-7 days all notification sounds stop working (texting, snap, default notification everything) Once you restart everything comes back. First i thought...Maybe its an app causing it went through app by app turning it on force closing nothing. then i started searching..Nothing on XDA...then i found a reddit thread multiple users same phone same problem no solutions(this thread https://www.reddit.com/r/razerphone/comments/alx13s/all_notifications_vibrate_only_no_sound/ )...Figured id come beack here for the great minds of XDA and ask if anyone else has experienced my problem and if anyone has found any kind of solution besides restarting the phone every-time.

Hi all,

i just resurrected one of my Oneplus One: formatted, Android 10 and a new battery.

Now problem is that it is still overheated all the time, it was like this before changing battery too, i can't even try to open a game for more than 5 minutes or it becomes like fire.

Could i try to put some thermal paste over cpu surface? If yes, where is it? :D
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fastleo63:
Overheating was occurring even before Android 10 upgrade?

If not, maybe it might be a ROM issue.

Otherwise, I suggest to investigate a little more on CPU load and frequencies.

I suggest you experiment a bit on the nk.nba extraction and packaging using dmp2pkg tool to sort them into SYS and OEM sections. That way you can extract about any rom you wish. All you have to do after that is copy the SYS and OEM into your kitchen. The XIP part from ThingsOnASpring will work with all WM6.x roms. As for RGUs, if they are not included you can always work on default.hv and user.hv directly and then export them out into individual rgus if you wnt to re-provision the current package that has missing rgu - a bit difficult but doable.
