[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bikernzrh:
my previously rooted Gen 1 AFTV started to have issues so I tried to update the rather old OS build - and bricked the device. no LED light, nothing.

using an A-A cable I successfully followed rbox' instructions in https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=66961740&postcount=676 writing the contents of update-kindle-bueller-51.6.3.2_user_632552020.bin to the respective partitions and wohoo, the box booted again, although without rbox' bootloader which I didn't care for too much then.

worse problem was there was also no network connection - neither Ethernet (no link) nor WIFI (just kept scanning forever) worked. not really knowledgeable about the boot process of Android devices I resorted to a factory reset, which seemed to work but now I'm stuck at the Amazon setup (just after language selection) still without network and no other way to go. tried the alt-prtscr-i route but that only got me to a screen with red text saying the device would enter recovery which never happened no matter how long the wait.

thinking the bin file may have been corrupted next I attempted to dd-write the partitions again with contents from another bin file but couldn't even "see" the partitions anymore. hooked up to a knoppix box nothing shows those sdcX partitions anymore: df -h, mount, fdisk -l, cat /proc/partitions. only command - briefly - showing a Qualcomm device was lsusb.

same on a W10 machine where the booting AFTV would briefly show up as a USB mass storage class device (of course without access to it) but would then disappear again with the corresponding sound. the box still boots to the amazon setup however.

now I'm stuck and don't know what to try next. previously ADB debugging was active and I sometimes used the interface to push packages to it but now I don't even have an IP connection anymore to dig into the config files :crying:

thanks for any ideas ! would love to get the box back to life again
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sus_i:
Only the unlocked bootloader is able to read/write to the emmc via the a-a usb cable. Adb debugging is gone due the factory reset.

What is installed on system? A prerooted rom? Then the solution is probably to boot into TWRP and wipe cache, dalvik, data, internalsd.

In case the TWRP bootmenu is gone too, there isn't much (maybe nothing) you can do...
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bikernzrh:
being a newbie to Android I'm not exactly sure. I believe it was a prerooted rom. it showed RBOX's BOOT MENU at startup and I did have root access.

according to "how-to-factory-reset-a-rooted-fire-tv-using-twrp-custom-recovery" on aftvnews the reset to factory defaults should not have removed root or TWRP, however there is no menu when booting the device and pressing right-arrow won't bring one up either. it just boots to the amazon setup

does that mean that I'll have to toss it?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sus_i:
Idk. If the bootmenu doesn't show, its probably gone.

About the network problem, maybe a router reset is worth a shot?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bikernzrh:
thanks for your thoughts!

what has me curious still is the fact, that I no longer can access the box from Linux as I did before. wonder if the new OS is hiding TWRP info normally visible and if there is any secret way to invoke it?

the router is fine. always in use with various WIFI clients and also just successfully tested a cable connection to it with a laptop.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sus_i:
In case you are good with a solder iron, there is always the hardware option, in order to read/write to the EMMC partitions. Take a look here and here. But aside from the soldering skills, it cost some bucks to buy hardware...
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bikernzrh:
I fear my soldering expertise is not sufficient to attempt that :( guess I'll have to shop around for another used device instead as I need TOSLink and would also like to retain an Ethernet connection.

thank you so much for your help!

Hello all,

I am having a problem with the "cne_imsa_ind_handler_wl_" process killing my battery by causing a permanent kernel wakelock after charging.

I've no idea what it is, Google doesn't have any answers and I can't find a reference to it on this forum - hence the new post.

I've replaced my broken screen with a new one and it doesn't work. It lights up in black with a few pixels in different colours but nothing more. The same happens now with the old screen after I put it back. I guess the rest works fine because I can synchronise with ActiveSync.

Can anyone tell me where I went wrong with the replacement procedure? Is there anything I can do now?
[Sony Xperia 1 II Questions & Answers] asaural:
Hello,

I am willing to get the new Xperia 1 II. I am living abroad, and for many reasons, I kept my native country's sim to keep my line open. Currently, I own two phones to have both lines up. But this new Xperia seams to be released with a variant getting dual sim feature which is what I am looking for so I could replace my LG V20 and LG G8 for this amazing phone.

I read online that this phone comes with different variants:

XQ-AT51

XQ-AT52

XQ-AT72

SO-51A (NTT DoCoMo)

SOG01 (AU/Okinawa Cellular)

On this website https://www.xperiablog.net/2020/04/...eria-model-number-structure-for-2020-devices/ they tend to say that this XQ-AT52 model would be the dual sim variant, but I cannot find any online resources to confirm this.

Is there anybody who knows yet what is the dual sim variant so I don't get wrong while ordering?

(I really hope it's not only the korean version to get this dual sim variant...)

Thanks!
[Sony Xperia 1 II Questions & Answers] asaural:
Hello,

I come back to you guys to have some updates about this topic since now they released the phone and preorders are available, maybe someone has some details about this feature.

I really want to know if the variant sold in Europe is supporting 2 sim.

On GSMArena, they list the phone as Hybrid Dual SIM (Nano-SIM, dual stand-by) but on sony.de, sony.fr, sony.it they list it as SIM NUMBER

Single SIM.

On B&H bhphotovideo, the phone is proposed as Sony Xperia 1 II Dual-SIM 256GB Smartphone (Unlocked).

Why would they sell a dual sim capable in America and a single sim in Europe?
[Sony Xperia 1 II Questions & Answers] kevin3688:
The model selling in Taiwan is XQ-AT52 with dual sim ( 5G/4G compatible ).

If you put 2 sims, it runs in 4G mode, 5G is only working when only one sim card inserted.
[Sony Xperia 1 II Questions & Answers] solos2:
5G I only works with 1 SIM card inserted? That's not very good design.

Also, can you please try to switch between SIM card for data, does it require a reboot to active? I used to own Sony phones and they all require reboot when switching between SIMs, which is very inconvenience.

I use other brand dual SIM phone now and they don't require reboot when switching between SIM.
[Sony Xperia 1 II Questions & Answers] Fatmonk8:
Do you know if the only difference between the single sim and duel sim variations are the sim tray provided with the phone and the software installed. I am wondering if I got a single sim version, if I could flash the international firmware and replace the tray with a dual sim version

[Sony Xperia 1 II Questions & Answers] Dark Avenger:
You don't need to reboot to change or swap sim, that's what i heard and that's why you don't need a pin to open the tray.. you just need to pull it.

I guess the tray for single sim is different but software is different too.. means software can handle dual sim..

I know some people with Samsung single sim model, they put 1 sim in tray and stick the second sim on the microsd. It becomes a dual sim with micro sd.

But you have to be very good to unstick the sim from original card and stick on the microsd without damaging your sim
[Sony Xperia 1 II Questions & Answers] saqibkhan:
HI all

has anyone found a way to keep both the Sims running even when the 1st has 5G on.. Like let the 2nd sim run at 4G or 3G atleast.. but why does the 2nd sim has to be off or go off when the first one runs at 5G.

I keep wanting to use 5G at all times on my first sim.. but why should my 2nd SIM stay off. this is mind boggling why would SONY implement this on a Premium Flagship while others Like Xiaomi and others have better sim management options even when 5G

this is the only thing stopping me from getting this phone although i love it.

on a separate note.

Also someone has any idea if the Special Frosted edition of this phone releasing in Japan with 12GB RAM will be dual or single sim ?

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Rapidfayaround:
Bruh....Did you read that properly. First flash the modified AP, then you will boot then enable OEM Unlock which will disable FRP Lock, then you can flash TWRP. Or just tell me the CSC for your country, I will do all this and send you the modified AP.

I tried to convert the img,lz4 file with auto tar . No chance. Next time i will try to flash a combination rom.

Thanks, i managed to convert the files. Still on stock rom. I had no sucess, flashed the files in different ways.

BL CP HOMESCS; only ap etc. etc.... I spendend many hours but sometimes the phone did not boot,when it booted I was not able to unlock oem in developer options.

I will wait new 7 days, perhaps i have luck. Grrrrrr....... **** Samsung:(:( I WANT MY TWRP BACK. With Samsung S5 i had not this trouble.

Cause of this i will not buy any Samsung products neither Tv or anything else. SAMSUNG WANTS TO FORBID THE PEOPLE TO ROOT AND FLASH THEIR PHONES.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] chris1abc:

View attachment 5024909

yes, that is my problem. I was able to install the modified AP and flashed it how you described it. In developer option i can toggle the button,

cause it went back. This problem stays with the modified AP ROM and also on unmodified stock rom.

There is no green light . It just goes back. MY Status is FRP LOCK on while staying on stock rom or AP modified rom. I have no google frp lock only by Samsung.

Odin picture is only for example what i did (removed you see), i must use my s7 edge to take the picture.

AP FILE was flashed with 3 Files:

recovery.img + (renamed boot.img)+ system.img. + boot.img. converted in one AP FILE

with BL CP SCSHOME in Odin. The phone booted now in system, but in dev.options the oem button can be actived but it struggles back. That´s the fact.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] shah22:
You mean when you enable the toggle, it automatically gets off ??

This is weird indeed, first time seeing this..

Did you bought your phone second hand ? It maybe that its hardware is semi modified ..
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] chris1abc:
Yes, i bought it second hand , but the people did not modiefie the phone. It had stock rom an KNOX 0+0.

The oem toggle did not go back before I installed TWRP and moro Kernel. Do you know if its possible that oem unlock will not go back automically after waiting for 7 days ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] shah22:
Can't be sure, RMM lock is not implemented on S7 series per my knowledge, but yeah you can try waiting..

Also confirm that your oem unlock toggle automatically turns off when enabled ??
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] chris1abc:
Yes the unlock toggle automatically turns off when enabled . I succsefully flashed AP Rom and also Stock Rom. In both cases the phone boots normally, but there is the problem

with the toggle. Its a pity for the work and lot of tries.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] shah22:
Its the first time im coming across this issue .. don't know then, i tested this solution on many people and it always worked .. you sure your phone isn't a hardware semi-modified snapdragon variant to show itself as a exynos one ? That could make sense why the toggle can't be enabled but still its really weird ..
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] chris1abc:
i have never heared about a semi modified snapdragon. On cpuz or ohter apps it shows me exynos . The last try is too flash the ap file with the meta folder, that i did not tried. Perhaps i mayed a fault while flashing or converting, i dont know. But the phone starts with the modified ap file, but how i said, i was not able to turn oem on.

Next time i will start another try with flashing meta folder in ap file. Perhaps i have luck.

No chance, i installed ap with meta folder. Phone booting in system , oem unlock not possible.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] chris1abc:
i have checked with phone info and samsung imei the phone is 100% original.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] chris1abc:
Oem unlock not possible, still on stock rom 8.

SM- G935F EXYNOS 8890

After trying a last flash with nand erase and repartion with stock rom binary 8 , the problem still is not solved.

Download mode shows FRP on. Status official.

FRP Lock for hardware is still alive. I normally can sign in to my google account with my device.

The phone boots normally but in dev. options, the oem button automatically goes back. I am not able to solve the problem.

Stock rom works,but no way to flash TWRP cause custom binary blocked by FRP. Its possible to flash different stock roms with binary 8, all is working except s- health.

(notice: phone is rooted, but root has gone). I have no chance to flash a rom below binary 8.

History: I installed TWRP with moro Kernel on Stock rom. All works, after accidentally i disabled the dev. options i got the dead android and i was not able to go back in TWRP

recovery. Twrp had disappeared.

When i start the revovery the "dead android no command" appears and after 1 minute the stock recovery appears.

I read ( Google research) , there was a user who had the same problem with a s7 g930f. He could flash stock roms but no other and he also could not unlock oem in any

rom.

I would be happy to hear from somebody who had a solution. I think there is a new security patch by samsung. Meanwhile i stay on latest stock rom and hope sometime i can unlock oem in dev. options. I have tried all incl. flash with Nand Erase in Odin ( you should not do this, i heard), but nothing worked for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] soul master:

Thanks, But i tried to flash stock ROM also i followed the steps in first post, also FRP still active can't use any google account.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] shah22:
Don't exactly understand.. you are getting dm verity error ? Or custom firmware blocked by frp ? Or both ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] soul master:
Currently i am on binary 8 firmware G935FXS8ETCB - hero2lte

System Status: Official.

FRP Lock: ON

Warranity Void : 0

- The issue is that i wiped my phone from recovery menu without removing the google account, hence the FRP lock.

- can't recover the gmail for some reason it's not working, no reply from google on that !

- I tried the steps for flashing as per the steps in second post, also flashing stock rom no change to the status of the device

- I am out of ideas, if there is any thing that you can guide me to that would be great.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] shah22:
Ah, no combination rom available for 8 binaries : (

You will need that google account back or you can try searching for "fix google frp lock s7 oreo" I have no experience on this so can't guide you exactly, sry.

But there were quite a bit of tricks to bypass google frp lock back in the days.. I expect some of them to work now too. Good luck

sí, ese es mi problema. Pude instalar el AP modificado y lo mostré como lo describiste. En la opción de desarrollador, puedo alternar el botón,

porque volvió. Este problema permanece con la ROM AP modificada y también con la ROM estándar sin modificar.

No hay luz verde. Simplemente vuelve. MI estado es FRP LOCK mientras permanece en stock rom o rom modificado AP. No tengo ningún bloqueo de Google Frp solo por Samsung.

La imagen de Odin es solo por ejemplo lo que hice (eliminada, ya ves), debo usar mi borde s7 para tomar la foto.

AP FILE se flasheó con 3 archivos:

recovery.img + (renombrado boot.img) + system.img. + boot.img. convertido en un ARCHIVO AP

con BL CP SCSHOME en Odin. El teléfono arrancó ahora en el sistema, pero en las opciones de desarrollo, el botón oem se puede activar pero tiene problemas. Ese es el hecho.

[Huawei Mate 30 Pro Questions & Answers] 1212121212121212:
So there is this neat feature on this phone, it's called Skytone. It lets you buy a data package for almost every country in the world.

Let's say that I don't have a data plan in my country, or I'm going on vacation and I don't want to spend money roaming, or swapping out SIM cards on the fly. The app will let you choose the country, and the data package. An example is that I can access full LTE data for Canada, for about $1.50 a day, unlimited internet. Which is still way cheaper than any cellular company in Canada. You choose the package, and it will start working immediately.

Since this phone has that feature, does this mean that the phone has an eSIM number somewhere? I just can't find it and would like to know where it is for development purposes.

I highly recommend going to go check Skytone out if you have it on your phone, and try a free one hour trial if it's available to you, it's really, really cool.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] CoSci:
Hi, i own my Galaxy Note 8 now about 2 years and want to switch to a custom rom.

Previously i owned an Xiaomi Mi 5S and a Galaxy Note 3, after switching to Custom Roms there, i missed some Stock Rom features(like Samsung Camera App).

So my question, can is still use the zoom/dual camera feature with a custom rom or does it only work with the stock camera app?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] stonedpsycho:
Flashing a stock based rom keeps all the features (once you flash TWRP, Spay will never work again as Knox will trip, there are patches for shealth and secure folder though) If you flash a AOSP rom, ie lineage OS which is android 10, you will lose stock camera and all it's features. I can't personally tell you what the camera is like on Lineage OS, but it will definitely not be better than stock.
