Soon, I want to change the Android 10 O.S. to a non-Android O.S. I'm asking for opinions as to what may be the better/best O.S. that #1. Can operate sufficiently on a Samsung A205u. #2. O.S. must be compatible w/ "NextRadio" so that I can use FM radio chip (non-internet). This is a 4G phone. I do not wish to debate anyone. Just seeking information.

Huh so it must be compatible with NextRadio? Didn't you say not long ago that it was "defunct"?

And try to think about what you just asked because you're wanting a non android os that is somehow magically capable of running apps for android.

If you want information then go look it up. And everytime someone gives you an opinion you whine and moan about how wrong they are so why bother asking?

After I microSD flashed my phone it said "update successful" I followed the directions on the wiki and did a soft reset. The phone returned back to the tri-color bootloader screen. Did I do something wrong or is the phone messed up beyond fixing?:(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] mark1914:
I just flashed it again via microSD and it says:

Now if I try to soft reset it jumps back to the colored screen.

THen after I did a hard reset it went back to the tri-color screen.

reflash to OEM rom..

did you HardSPL? ..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] mark1914:
Thanks guys. I did try doing a soft reset, same thing. I dont know if the previous owner did HardSPL. He was a friend of a friend and gave it to me for free. When I got it, it was stuck on the bootloader screen. I asked if he tried to flash it and he said no. My computer doesnt recognize it and my work computer same thing. Could the USB port on the phone be damaged? I flashed it with WM6 off the wiki and PDAcorner. Same thing. Loaded then after I soft reset it goes to bootloader screen. :mad:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] zocster:
Have you tried flashing a shipped rom with USB while on bootloader screen, plug in to PC and just run the exe file? report back? Check your serial against here for known problems.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] mark1914:
Neither my home computer or work computer detects the phone when I plug it into a USB port. I have tried a 3 different cords and it still doesnt show up as a device.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] ultramag69:
Whats the SPL on bootloader screen. If its 2.10 olipro it has hard SPL installed...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] mark1914:
Ooops I didnt mean to make 2 threads about the same problem. Yeah it says 2.10 olipro but still jumps back to bootloader screen after a flash.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] mark1914:
Checked my serial number (HT652) and there's no known problems on the wiki for this model. Tried to plug it into the PC but it cant connect. Tried two different PCs and updated Activesynch. Nothing. I am beginning to think that this phone is just dead period or the previous owner dropped it and messed it up.

UPDATE:

I flashed a shipped ROM from the wiki and it did the same thing. Loaded, said it was updated and when I did a soft reset it popped back to the bootloader screen. Should I let the battery drain and try again tomorrow?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Madcap180:
No need to let the battery drain, take the battery out for about 20 seconds and put it back in, then turn the device back on. I had this problem once and that solved it. If your device can't connect to the computer you may have to flash via storage card.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] mark1914:
I tried flashing it a few times with a storage card. It loads then after a soft reset goes back to bootloader screen.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] ultramag69:
Just to double check, under the battery should be a sticker with some info on it.

Should be imei and voltage etc... Does it have anywhere herm***? The *'s are for a number - 100,200 or 300. If it doesn't say herm*** then you are on the wrong forum. There are so many different names for the Hermes that I thought it may be an idea to check as flashing the wrong SPL will DEFINATELY brick your device and it seems to have been Hard SPLed. The os should be flashed fine but as MrVanx says you may have some bad blocks if you are sure you have a hermes.

Cheers...:)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] mark1914:
Yes it says HERM100. Also, the person that gave it to me said he might have been pushing the power button while he was putting the battery in. Would that brick it? Another thing, does the battery every run out? I left it on bootloader all night and its still on!

com.android.vending

Opened Play Store and logged in.

Successfully loaded Google Maps

Successfully loaded TVision app (TMobiles version of streaming TV)

When i open google maps, it loads. As soon as it "finds me" on the map, it silently "closes". I can see it as a running app, but when i tap on it again it does the same thing.

Loaded TVision app via play store, it also cannot "find" my location "Error: Can't Find Your Location" and wont finish opening the app.

I have verified that my location is indeed turned on...

Any help is appreciated... Is there a way to verify that i can use Google location services? instead of Amazon location? The post i did find on this site is over a year old and doesn't seem to apply to my tablet.

[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] TomekUser:
I am looking for help as I cannot find anything on the Internet.

Situation:

I have rooted Pixel with December updates. I thought that it is high time to update it to February security updates.

I was trying to use OTA update and according to instruction ( https://developers.google.com/android/ota ) I should reboot to Recovery mode.

I am using Windows 10 x64.

Problem:

In Recovery mode I cannot connect via adb to phone. I am getting:

C:\WINDOWS\system32>adb devices

List of devices attached

0B041JEC216220 unauthorized

What is strange is fact that before I restarted to Recovery I had no problem and I even used adb to reboot to Recovery using below commands:

C:\WINDOWS\system32>adb devices

* daemon not running; starting now at tcp:5037

* daemon started successfully

List of devices attached

0B041JEC216220 device

C:\WINDOWS\system32>adb reboot recovery

Tried solutions:

1. Removing adb keys on PC and Phone not helping.

2. Revoking USB debugging authorizations

3. Disabling / enabling USB debugging

4. Removing LeMobile ADB driver and installing official from https://developer.android.com/studio/run/win-usb

Any ideas what I can do next?
[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] Edmontonchef:
Are your platform tools up to date? You should be on 30.0.5.

Do you have a fastboot connection?

You could always remove the -w with a text editor and flash-all with the factory image
[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] TomekUser:
Yes, I have the newest one.

Yes, I have and I thought about it too, but I was afraid about such "dirty" flash. It seems that there is no other way, so I will try it and let know if adb is fixed after flash.
[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] TomekUser:
I did flash without -w and for adb in Recovery mode the same situation. At least I have updated ROM and it seems that everything works. Thanks!

[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] TomekUser:
When you download the stock rom from Google website and unpack the zip file, you will find there script flash-all.

In side that script one of the last commands has -w flag. If you don't want to wipe your user partition you can remove it, save the script and run it to flash the new stock.
[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] narf0815:

did you find a solution for the original problem in the end?

i flashed the complete firmware then as well, just as you did, but i’m still curious as to why my devices (our devices) remain "unauthorized" in stock recovery. tried all of the mentioned solutions as well, no luck, perfectly "authorized" in the os itself, as well as in fastboot mode, just not in recovery ..
[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] TomekUser:
No, I did not :(
[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] frank93:
after a bit of research (by which i mean google/trial/error) i now feel VERY dumb, but let me share my results with you - for what it’s worth, and maybe it is/was the same problem for you:

apparently to sideload an OTA the device in recovery does NOT have to show "authorized"! (tried everything (creating new keys, checking the local key against the device-key manually, etc) and still it said "unauthorized".)

it turns out i tried to get the authorized-status on the screen where the android robot fell down and said "no command", so kinda "before" the actual recovery mode! get out of that screen (holding power button long, pressing vol-up short, letting go the power button) to get into the "menu" mode of recovery. still unauthorized, yes. then/there choose "sideload via adb" until the device says "waiting for input .." or something, and - TADAA - "adb devices" now tells you "sideload" next to the device id (instead of "unauthorized"). which is not only correct and "as expected", but actually works (for me) for sideloading an OTA!

mind blown, more or less. all the time i tried to get it "authorized" before checking if the actual OTA needs that anyway. :)

[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] Nexpulse:
A simple solution is to unplug usb cable from phone.

kill the adb server: adb kill-server

restart the server: adb start-server

boot your phone into recovery mode.

select update using ADB.

once is ask for the package plug your phone back into the usb

type: adb devices.

Its should show your device and state sideload instead of unauthorized...

then type: adb sideload (package name.zip)

Hope this helps...
[Google Pixel 4a Guides, News, & Discussion] doggydog2:
just hold Vol- during boot, login in safe mode, plug cable, authorize, profit. you can also simply reboot in full root mode afterwards as magisk already sorted out the problem.

-> all modules are disabled for your convenience, no need to delete and reinstall modules, just tick box again to reenable

-> phone is an airplane mode for your convenience, so that you don't leak some info w/privacy plugins temporarily off

OK, so I see that you have problem with adb unauthorized. In cmd or in terminal type adb devices. If you don't have installed adb drivers install it. If it says "unauthorized" that means that you don't have allowed to usb debugging. On your android device will pop up message to allow usb debugging.

I set a watch on this page to get notified when the Android 11 update appeared, as of a few days ago it's available here - but they weren't kidding about free download being slow, it took me about 5 hours, so I've uploaded the untouched zip to Google Drive in case anyone wants to download it a bit quicker. (I remembered after the fact that I got a tool for downloading from Samsung's servers, then forgot about it)

If you unlocked your phone and rooted with Magisk, don't forget to patch the AP image with the Magisk Manager app first before you flash it (scroll down to "Additional Notes" here about updating, hopefully this is the same guide you used in the first place). If you're still fully stock then you don't need to worry about that, but maybe you can just update officially from your phone. I did the Magisk thing and flashed it with Odin, all went really smoothly, haven't had any errors or glitches and all my stuff is still there.

[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] jbhtexas:
Hello!

I've got a stock Verizon LG G7 ThinQ, and thus it is stuck on Android 9 (software version G710VM21b).

It seems that after the screen is off for a period of somewhere between 1-2 hours, the phone goes into some kind of deep sleep mode, where it will no longer bing for notifications for received texts, emails, etc. I have gone into the "Power Saving exclusions" and turned off battery management for a number of things, including Outlook, Gmail, Family Link, Messaging, The Weather Channel, etc., but that doesn't help.

The phone will bing for notifications for about 1-2 hours after the screen turns off, and then it will stop. Upon turning on the screen again, there will be numerous bings as the phone works through all the notifications that it has not displayed. It seems like it is getting the notifications, but just not announcing them. This is rather annoying. The phone does seem to ring if a phone call comes in.

Any ideas? Is there some other system service that needs to be excluded from Power Saving? There are a number of other system things that are excluded from Power Saving, but I wondering if something else needs to be excluded as well.

Thanks!

I am running a FireTV 2nd Gen Box on Sloane in-rooted/locked/no trwp completely stock on 5.2.7.7 with latest updates including the “Components” update.

First of all, if anyone knows how I can safely uninstall or disable more than these 15 apps/processes on this device/firmware please let me know. The 15 I’ve tried are the only ones that I know of work without issue according to the article I followed: TechDoctorUK Debloat Fire OS 5.x

So, Somehow Amazon keeps either re-installing these apps/processes or replenishes the data as when I do the ADB commands it clears about 1.5gb of storage, and all is good. Then either after a restart of the device, or when it’s idle and not in use, (haven’t figured out which one it is yet, it could be both) the storage goes back down to what it was before executing the commands.

Here is a list of the commands, and from where I found them from:

So don't expect to get each update with this device as soon as it launches in one specific region. You just have to wait a little longer with Samsung devices (or, you can do it manually if your update is already publicly available online).

But with all of that said, this update is only around 350mb and is listed to only contain the February 1st security update and another camera performance increase update. So no worries, people!
