[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fufu12:
Hi all,

I have a stock/non-rooted lenovo A7-50 A3500-F, for which I have downloaded the original firmware files (Lenovo_A3500-F_MT6582_A442_01_34_140904.zip).

I've unpacked and modified the boot.img, modified default.prop to set ro.debuggable=1, repacked, and flashed back to the device via fastboot:

- adb reboot bootloader

- fastboot flash boot boot-new.img

After rebooting, the device is stuck in a bootloop (the lenovo logo shows up for a while, then all blank, then again the logo, goes on forever).

The only thing I can do at this point, is to enter the stock recovery mode. Since adb is not available, I cannot find an external way to enter fastboot mode so that I could reflash boot.img (holding the power button and vol-up keys doesn't do anything - bootloop goes on).

So I am looking for a way to reflash the original boot.img somehow. While in recovery, the only thing that appears to be available is adb sideload, and the recovery option "apply update from adb" (or sdcard). I've tried to generate a signed zipfile that should update boot.img with the expected structure (followed some instructions and tried out f-zip, but it doesn't work (the recovery screen after adb sideload uploads the file shows "Error." and no other info).

If you have any suggestions or other ideas on how to restore the original boot.img it would be most appreciated.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] S188:
Greetings, hope you're all staying safe :)

I got an S20 Ultra, Snapdragon variant. Everything about this phone is amazing honestly expect for one spot...

The Wi-Fi gets ridiculously slow after a while and I mean REAL slow speeds, It doesn't lose the Wi-Fi signal, actually it's almost full all the time.

The Power Plan is on High Performance, no power saving features enabled whatsoever whether in the Wi-Fi settings or anywhere else.

The only temporary solution is to disconnect the Wi-Fi connection and reconnect again and it'll work fine for a while and so on.

It's very frustrating since when it actually works fine the performance is pretty good, I've searched around and found a few people experiencing the same issue but no fix yet.

Hope someone out there figured out a fix, or Samsung releases and update to the fix the issue if it's a firmware bug.

Thanks and looking forward to your help.

Similar issue here but S20+ Exynos. WiFi works great for a while and then drops to 1 mpbs saying "Connected without internet". I then have to turn it off and on to get it to work properly.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] S188:
My Note 9 and my brother's OnePlus both don't have this issue, all my other devices as well.

It's the phone unfortunately and many others experience the same thing but I don't know whether it's a software or a hardware issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] chieco:
Mentioned this before. It's really happening. No way to fix a hardware issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] S188:
How did you conclude that it's a hardware issue and not a software one?

Also, it has nothing to do with the phone heating up as far as I can tell. It happens randomly even if the phone is just idling and you decided to use it.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] chieco:
That's from my experience. Your issue sounded the same. What makes you think it's a software issue?
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] S188:
I'd say for two reasons, first if it was a hardware issue it wouldn't appear randomly just like in my situation, it would be persistent instead.

The second and most importantly, is that toggling the Wi-Fi off and then on fixes the issue instantly for a while before it appears randomly again.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] chieco:
then we have a different issue. Hope it get's fixed for you. My problem on the other hand is a hardware issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] *Detection*:
My Exynos S20U dropped to really low WiFi speeds today for download only, upload was still full, I have 2x 5ghz routers and both were giving the same low download speed, was about to call ISP but then noticed the red recording light was on the sky box, it was eating all my Download speed, killed the recording and had full bandwidth again, probably unrelated but ideas to check other connected devices
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] S188:
Unfortunately still no actual fix for this issue, it appears randomly. My Note 9 on Android 8 and Note 10+ on Android 9 don't have this issue. I read that some other users with Note 10 and S10 on Android 10 experience the same issue so it's apparently a software issue.

Hope it gets fixed soon, everything about this phone is good so far but this issue is ruining the experience :/

[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] Thanos88:
Hi, what Temperature are you P40 Pro users getting on your phone ? I feel like my P40 Pro is over heating for no apparent reason.

If I have my screen brightness at 20% and browse just the internet with absolutely no backgrounds apps running, no Bluetooth, no GPS, no Sync etc. Just WiFi , the web browser and 20% screen brightness, the p40 Pro reaches around 32degress celcius..

Is this normal? Are you guys getting the same temperature from just browsing the web with 20% screen brightness and WiFi while everything else is off and no apps running in background ?

My Rog phone 2 hits a maximum of 26 degrees celcius with the same settings (WiFi, 20% brightness and no apps in background)..

Would be great to hear usage stats and temperature readings from other p40 Pro users.. thanks ! ??

If you deleted by mistake, just restore it. It's a system app, all system apps can be restored.

Just pull down on home screen, it'll open search page.

Now search for the app you deleted, the app will show up, with a restore option at the side.

Now happily restore it.

Go into Google playstore settings and scroll to the bottom and on the left you may see a note advising you that your device IS NOT CERTIFIED and nothing from their store will be installed and only updates to existing apps installed when the device was certified will be allowed - i have the same issue and its all down to the manufacturer loosing device certification and just as i have found out that by doing a factory reset you lose those pre-certified apps!

Hi !

When boot my diamond, there are 3 lines on screen :

- version of Rom Diamond

- version of Rom Radio

- version of protocol.

These settings are write on systems informations.

I know what Diamond and Radio versions but not protocol version.

What is the protocol? What is the use of the protocol?

i have on my Touch Diamond the protocol version 52.29.25.12H.

More users have other protocol version.

What's the difference?

How change protocol if is necessary ?

Technically yes, but you do have some options, you can root and use GSI ROMs, there's a thread here about how to do that, but you lose fingerprint function.

Second option would be to run Black Magic 5G Beta, there's also a post on here about how to do that.

So those are your current options, unlock an install a GSI ROM like Havoc. Install Black Magic 5G Beta, or just leave it stock and wait for a Global ROM to be released by Nubia.

[Android Stick & Console Computers General] bhamr129:
Hey everyone.

I've done some solid weeks of searching to no avail on this.

I have an AT&T AndroidTV box. Model number is C71KW-400 - Manufactured by WNC, not Samsung. Specs as follows.

Android Version 8.0, up to date. Kernel - 4.1.45-1-15pre ATT@Kernel 2. BSL Ver 2.2.5.0, BSU 2.19, BFW 4.25.

I can't get this thing to mount for anything in ADB. Is there something I'm missing? (drivers, I'm pretty sure.)

I'm not sure if there is an OEM specific driver for this box, but I'm about ready to pull my hair out. Almost no permission from factory whatsoever.

Dev Mode unlocked. USB debugging is on. Type-A to Type-A. It won't read the data cable for anything, but reads a regular flashdrive with no worries. Brand new data cable.

Any advice? Tips? I am trying to root and/or flash a new rom after dealing with this misery.

Did you ever find any answers to your questions? The boxes are $48 - $50 (refurbished) on eBay. I, too, am curious.
[Android Stick & Console Computers General] safesam:
I came across one of these boxes recently. When powered up it prompts you for a Direct-TV login account. I could not find a way to bypass the login so I opened it up and discovered it was running a Broadcom 7271ZBKFSBB3 media processor. Broadcom provides an array of open source Linux tools and software at: https://github.com/Broadcom for their set top box products. Anyone out there have experience using the tools?

Does not look complete. Try to interrupt it by spamming some keyboard inputs that would otherwise work if it were u-boot.

How is the Flash chip connected and can you temporarily prevent the CPU reading the Flash chip ?
[Android Stick & Console Computers General] Network_Pro:
https://github.com/broadcom/aeolus here is mentioned a CM console no idea what that is but sounds like a separate UART lol ?

This looks more specific to the STB case https://github.com/ARM-software/u-boot/blob/master/doc/README.bcm7xxx so it's a BOLT bootloder which loads another elf image which may or may not be a modified u-boot ?
[Android Stick & Console Computers General] safesam:
I think I'm stuck. The box cleared all it's settings when I powered it up with the cover off. It must have sensed it with the IR detector. Now it is prompting me to hit two buttons on the remote simultaneously for 3 seconds. I don't have the original remote that comes with the box and have been using my Logitec Harmony to emulate the remote. The Harmony does not allow me to do this. See attached photos...

That's weird it should not have such a security feature, if they put such a feature preventing repairs, boycott all their brands all their everything from the investor fund all related companies down to the parking garage guards give them the silent treatment for being an evilcorp. 😁 Look them with contempt and shame them. Make tc tc tc noises when you pass them. The settings reset was probably due to the provider firmware not being able to authenticate to a central server for a period of time, or receiving empty config from the central server due to missing subscription.

This should be outlawed creating crippled products MUST BE OUTLAWED all lawmakers I just lost all respect for them it's over. They are nothing to me. Unworthy humans.

The USB-A to USB-A to connect in some useful way, for this to work there must be a code running on the CPU to make this possible. This code should exist in the GPL sources obtainable by asking the evilcorp (if they don't give them they break GPL and must be fined some millions) Also from devkits with similar SoC if not from github etc. I do not advise it due to it will be timeconsuming just commenting on it.

get a remote from an online seller near you, or as an idea, bring to a directv (att?) store and use their demo unit remote to setup yours ..

with remotes you can also try things with a TV with HDMI-CEC and with some TVs they can emulate some devices remotes and send IR to them

Otherwise dump the flash, modify the contents and rewrite the flash.

Monetarily it's not worth it but let me ask you WHAT IS THE COST OF FREEDOM ?!

The ADB there are no drivers for that - TV boxes use ADB over network. If it's USB -what PID VID ?

If AI ever becomes like the Terminator it would rightly go and punish any makers of any crippled hardware or software that imposes artificial limitations on anyone or anything. And this is not a collectivist ideology its pure math logic.
