[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Retr0.Hacker:
I did not mess with any partitions. I do not like to mess with my system. I never did. I always made a backup if I had to do something with the system. Before the incident, I never EVER messed with the system. I only started some experiments after the thing happened. I first deleted the whole content of /persist folder (which I restored, because I had a backup), then I deleted .macaddr file inside /persist/wifi folder which actually turned on my WiFi access again, only to f*** things up after doing something stupid, which is to replace wpa_supplicant.conf file inside the /data/misc/wifi folder with one I had with my previously saved WiFi Access Points and their passwords, which resulted to the corrupted MAC address again (02:00:00:00:00:00). No, my WiFi can be scanned successfuly and I am able to connect to it, but still, it does not work properly, because when it connects, it automatically disconnects when I try to use apps like Chrome and Instagram and other apps that need Internet to use. I am currently deleting and re-installing my Factory Image and this will be the last time...

Also, I will attach your URL for sure.

Thanks.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] User699:
Another thing which would be helpful:

If your problem is still present you might want to have a look at the logs. That way it's easier to see what causes this behavior.

adb logcat > log.txt

Run this and try to reproduce the error.

Don't worry about messing with anything. We don't know what happened and sometimes the best of us do things they shouldn't do.

And it seems that also other things (like installing a custom OS) messed with partitions somehow.

But yes, doing a backup prior to modifing is extremly wise – keep up that habit!:)(y)

I would suggest to try this solution I found:

It is said that the "fix" stays after Android is reinstalled afterwards.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Retr0.Hacker:
I saw this thread before. I did not try to flash other OS than the one I use now. I was also thinking downgrading to Android 5.1.1 (because I am currently using 6.0.1 with MOB30H build) and I might try some time.

BTW there is another problem now. I installed a packet from Termux called "macchanger" and I used the packet in order to - what else - change my MAC address. The packet seems to work. It DID change my MAC address and I am now able to scan for local WiFi. But the thing is that every time my I try to connect ti the Internet, WiFi automatically closes, and the randomized MAC address is permanently stuck ( I think, because I can reset it sometimes, but still, it changes back the the one who got randomized first)

I may get a new smartphone for WiFi, calls and stuff and use my Nexus 5 in order to try and find a fix for it. Idk...

Since I hate it when people fiddle with my polaris I created a small utility that locks the device straight away without waiting for the timeout. The utility is .NET Compact Framework 3.5 based and I tested it under a WM6 device emulator and my polaris itself (POLA100 with udk Syrius R0). Ideas and suggestions more than welcome but keep in mind that you are using this application with no support or guarantees and at your own risk. I take no responsibility whatsoever for issues you might have by using it. You can get it at: http://cid-28159fd1410e3d28.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/DeviceLockWM/DeviceLockWM.CAB

Update: Updated Application Icon and now the utility appears under the "Programs" folder

[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] LordBatata:
I think I messed up...

I have this old samsung s7 which has some sort of firmwre problem cause all I could do is boot into download mode. There I flashed TWRP and rebooted into the custom recovery and sideloaded crdroid 7.4. All was well but when I rebooted I got the crdroid logo flashing but then it froze and after a couple of minutes the screen turned black and is unresponsive. I tried all button combinations but to no avail.

The battery was at 55% after rebooting so it cant be that. Could it be that the black screen is because the bootloader wasn't unlocked, if so then how could I install TWRP?

Can anybody help me?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Alesyz:
Could you find the original firmware for that model, for example here: https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/, or to use Frija.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] LordBatata:
Yes I can find the original firmware but how to flash it when I cant get the phone into download mode?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Roberto W.:
try to shutdown ur phone and wait some minutes, then start it again?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Alesyz:
Do you have something on the screen?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] LordBatata:
The phone is off, the screen is black and unresponsive. The led doesnt flash or light up and the capacitive buttons dont light up.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Alesyz:
When you plug the charger, do you see the red light?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] LordBatata:
Nothing happens when plugging the phone in the charger at all. The screen stays completely black and the led doesnt light up.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Alesyz:
You have a hardware problem. Might be a charging port or a motherboard., or battery But to be sure, you have to open the phone and do some measurements.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] LordBatata:
The phone had no problem getting into download mode, flashing TWRP, flashing a custom ROM and rebooting. Only after booting crdroid all of a sudden the crdroid logo stopped moving, the screen froze and minutes later the screen turned black. I doubt it is a hardware issue unless flashing a custom ROM can do that.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Thugscub:
Try charging the phone overnight. make sure the usb cable is working properly. then try flash original rom with odin. i guese you have to get it into download mode. by pressing the 3 hard buttons first.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] betacrypt:
Did you obtain crDroid from their official site, sourceforge or from somewhere else? Also how long did you hold down Power+Home+Vol down? Try for at least ten seconds.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Pedrofarias:
Se Você conseguir entrar em modo de download é só baixar o odin, e instalar o firmware original. Meu celular fez isso e resolvi assim . Se não, talvez a solução seja pesquisar bem antes porque provavelmente não tem mais jeito. Só trocando a placa ou bateria.

Translation: If you can enter download mode, just download odin, and install the original firmware. My cell phone did this and I solved it like this. If not, perhaps the solution is to do research beforehand because it is probably no longer useful. Just changing the plate or battery.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] LordBatata:
After a day and multiple tries to get into download mode it somehow got there again. I reinstalled a custom ROM and the exact same happened, the phone froze during first boot and dindt respond to anything anymore like before. Now I knew the phone wasnt bricked and after some DDGing I found that the probable culprit was a defective logic board.

I bought a working but completely shattered s7 for cheap and swapped the logic board.and my s7 is all set to be on my side for the years to come.

Thanks y'all.

With Visible Wireless on a unrooted Factory Unlocked Motorola G Stylus 2020 Android 10. When some calls come in they are identified as Spam or possible Spam.

Chatted with Visible they said they have no such feature but hope to bring call filtering to Visible soon.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 10.1 Wi-Fi (samsung-matissewifi) - postmarketOS Wiki

wiki.postmarketos.org

there is one build for the Galaxy tab 4 10.1 currently, however the screen isnt working and it barely boots. It seems that it has been using the old Sub77 sources, and as we currently have the more capable matteo0026 sources, I think we may be able to succeed in making a usable build. in contrast the S3 Neo has a lot more working rn.
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] hjroh0315:
comparing the Tab 4 10 inch(530)/8 inch(330) to other versions of the Tab 4, we have much less support considering that the VE has nearly full hardware support and the 7 inch has display and wifi support. As the S3 Neo has succeeded in making the display work, I think we will also be able to make them work.

Do as you want. Sources are in https://github.com/s3neo (for device specific repos) and https://github.com/lineageos (for msm8226 common repos)
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] raycekar:
Long story short, I messed up and I regret it. I edited the SDK 2 API levels up to get an app to possibly work and didn't think of the consequences of everything else.

I was running 8.0.0 rooted and am unable to get into recovery as the main boot of android is messed up where all apps result in continuous errors and when trying to enable usb debugging in the settings, the settings crash.

If I could get into revovery mode, I can fix it. The issue though is holding power + vol down does not work. I am not sure how to get into the recovery when the v30 shows that conformity screen on boot when the boot loader is unlocked. I was able to get into fastboot mode but on that screen it says i need to enable OEM unlock. Sadly that is not working as settings crash when trying to enable.

Would anyone have any other ideas to get to recovery?

Let me know if any more info is needed.

EDIT: I do have LGUP installed and does see the device. I would prefer not to have to fully reset the device if possible. Can LGUP boot the device into recovery?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] schwinn8:
What you described (just holding power and volume) will not get you into recovery... the proper sequence (aka the "button dance") is more involved than that. If you're only holding down those buttons, then you're not doing the process... do a search to see what it is (I believe you need to release and then re-press the power button... but I don't recall, so certainly don't take my description as enough info.

You also said you can boot into fastboot - you may be able to "fastboot reboot recovery" to get into recovery... some phones respond to that.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
LGUP can get you to Download mode but not Recovery.

You can boot to Recovery (TWRP) with hardware button dance.

For that, remember the annoying bootloader unlock warning is part of the boot sequence, if you still have that.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] raycekar:
@schwinn8 -

I ended up doing a clean flash with LGUP as I need my phone for work and thought this might as well be a good time to update from stock oreo to stock pie. I wish I had remembered the master reset method as that should have throw me into recovery, I was releasing and then holding both power and vol down when it should have just been releasing power and then holding while continuously holding vol down. Along with fastboot, a while back I had to reinstall windows and so not thinking things through, I did not have working fastboot drivers and didn't initially realize it.

Mistakes were made :/

I very much appreciate the reply.

[XPERIA X1 General] Keland44:
just in case you guys are interested

there supposed to be giving a live webcast about the X1 today at around 1 PST

here is the link

http://www.sonyericsson.com/premiere/

i'm goin to try listen in and see what happens.
[XPERIA X1 General] Insaneboy:
Seems i've missed it...

Gonna wait for the recording.

God, won't september 30th come already? :D
[XPERIA X1 General] unclesomebody:
I watched this event and have to say I was incredibly disappointed by it. The phone that Magnus was using was so ridiculously slow that I thought it was actually broken. Really. He had a panel that looked fairly customised with the usual array of time/weather/shortcuts/calendar etc and when he opened the keyboard there was about 3 seconds of delay before the screen rotated. However, it didn't stop there. It only redrew most of the screen. It took over 10 seconds for the phone to redraw the icons in landscape mode. How can this possibly be acceptable? 10 seconds?!!? magnus said he had been using this phone as his personal phone for nearly a year and he said he loved it. How many times has he switched from landscape/portrait and wasted 10 seconds of his life waiting for his phone to catch up.

Further to that, the whole thing seemed ridiculously laggy. He covered it up very well by pressing a button and then talking about the feature whilst waiting for it to load. It was painfully obvious though to anyone in the know what was really going on.

I have seen the recent video on theunwired and the screen rotation looks very fast, which is excellent. But perhaps when you have a more heavily loaded panel that fast screen rotation becomes a thing of the past? Also disappointing was the lack of accelerometer.

I was so keen for the X1 but that was 9 months ago. Now I'm going to wait another month or two and get the Touch HD. It lacks the keyboard, but I'll learn to live without.
[XPERIA X1 General] mkent_barbados:
screen lag

Also saw what you did, but he came on a chat at Modaco afterwards and said that he had a lot of apps open; which could be true...did you see how fast Google Maps came up? Each panel is it's own desktop and programs on it keep running, bound to be a memory hog. He was supposed to be using a retail version also, so should be as fast as the unit at The::Unwired.

To be honest, I never have been happy with my TyTn II for the screen rotation, and looking at video of the Touch Pro it doesn't seem much faster.

Maybe if you set the task manager to close apps when you switch away?
[XPERIA X1 General] unclesomebody:
I've just rewatched it and it actually took 16 seconds to rotate the screen at one point!!! Surely that's not acceptable, even if there are plenty of apps running. A device can be made smarter than that with more efficient code.
[XPERIA X1 General] Keland44:
i didn't get a chance to watch but i dunno i had a lot of really high hopes for this phone but it looks like i might be leaning more towards a touch pro but we'll see how long my wizard holds up before i make decisions about what to do

[XPERIA X1 General] foo:
There is another (GREAT!) review from Arne available:

http://www.theunwired.net/?item=videoview-hands-on-with-sony-ericsson-s-latest-xperia-x1-built

As you can see, the switching of orientation is very fast in all examples in this video (today screen, photo browser and opera). The LEDs are amazing and the whole device makes a very good impression to me. I also like the "moving slideshow" feature.

It's quite responsive and even the panels pop up in time. :)

If the reception quality is also good then this will be definitely my next device.
[XPERIA X1 General] Keland44:
yea i'm just lookin at this now and i like this a lot better then that crappy webcast they did earlier

yep just watched it and I must say it does give it more justice, I'm back to waiting for the release so a proper comparision can happen.
[XPERIA X1 General] Insaneboy:
Well the suit guy (what a douchebag...) did say that he has been using THAT device since february, so it's probably some alpha version of the device :D

While the other video it's the almost release beta version.
[XPERIA X1 General] unclesomebody:
I still think the device that modaco have done a small video review of is too slow. I mean, surely we're past the stage where we have to wait for things to happen. I don't want a phone that you press a button then wait for something to happen, or open the keyboard and wait for the screen to redraw. The first Diamond roms were a fairly slow, and after updating mine it was much better, so perhaps something like that will occur with the xperia. If not, I'll be glossing over this sexy device!
[XPERIA X1 General] Keland44:
yea same here i just hope my wizard hooks up long enough if not i might have to get a tilt and might wait till refurb's of the X1 are selling
[XPERIA X1 General] Keland44:
i know if i had be using my phone for that long with out any backups or a new rom update my phone would have probably been as slow as that also

given that he's not a romhead like us if you don't know what to do with it you'll just let it be unlike us rom start running slow we flash it with something new with the quickness
[XPERIA X1 General] pgamble:
I'm incredibly disappointed.

Response time for screen switching was a joke ... I've never had an issue with my TyTN or TyTNII ... even though I know some have ... but it was several seconds on the X1 in the video. Also it then seemed to take another 10 seconds to finish populating the screen with icons. The guy then left it open which suggests to me he didn't want to draw too much attention to the time it took.

They were reluctant to answer most technical questions and skirted over the ... it doesn't have tv out one. I was also amazed no one commented on 30FPS performance issues ... I watched the recorded one. I suspect they avoided any difficult incoming questions.

My gut feel is that this will be a very poor showing in it's initial release and if the P series are anything to go by ... updates fixing issues will be few and far between.

This was looking like a dream phone for me ... but now I'm not prepared to buy without trying first hand.

The TouchPro isn't enough of a jump over the TyTN II - same rubbish stills and video and no extra width to the screen ... 800x480 is native for most websites ... so the extra resolution for WVGA makes far more sense than VGA and the G900 showed me there were no issues with apps.

The Touch HD excited me ... and I thought I may get away without the keyboard ... but it also worries me in too many areas ... the first ... although it is 5mp ... the lens is no where as big as the N95 and therefore won't get enough light in to produce decent pictures ... and video is still QVGA which is just crazy for a modern high end device ... it's a little like bring out a car today with a 3 speed auto ... it was fine in '78 with a big old Ford Essex ... but not today. There are also many unanswered questions - Is there TV-Out or not ? How will games be played or those apps that rely today on the dpad - many today screens like Breeze etc ? The touch sensitive buttons ... if they are like the Samsung's we will all be closing calls with out cheeks mid conversation and dialing people when we just pick up the phone to move it.

Why can't these designers think a little. The capability of these phone is amazing now ... but they always miss out those essential things that make a device genuinely complete ... and I don't think it is to hold options for future devices, I just don't think the designers really think things through.

I feel .... very frustrated.
[XPERIA X1 General] pf:
It is always amusing to read the bad and good feelings of all of you here without having one in your own hand. All pre-series and not one of the sold version.

I don't mind this all. I took a great risk to buy the Toshiba G900 with all the bad experiances written about (and the first rom might have been very poor). And what did happen? The G900 is the best manufactured PPC I ever had -best build quality ever seen. With its high resolution it is not slower than my TytnI before. And there you had to wait a good time switching portrait- to landscape-mode.

I am sure the X1 will not only give his owner a very unique design feeling but a good basic to work with. There may be faster PPC, there may be PPC with other features. But most people will buy it in cause of the large screen offering so much more than just 2,8" vga :)

Buying the X1 will mean not to take the most advantage with games, but texts, internet or similar. Just where the screen has its best sites ;)

[Sony Xperia XZ2 Questions & Answers] RelaxIamOnlyAghost:
Hi,

I wanted to install Lineage OS on my Sony Xperia XZ2 compact. It has the latest stock firmware installed.

adb devices lists my device, preconditions are ok (bootloader unlock yes and debugging enabled and authorized)

adb reboot bootloader: the phone turns off, red light for 3 seconds, vibration, cyan light and black screen

fastboot devices simply does nothing

turn phone on again

turn off phone

hold volume down + power on -> vibration, "SONY" appears, "SONY" disappears, vibration, phone boot into normal work mode

I do not get into fastboot mode :(

Any ideas?

Best regards,

[Sony Xperia XZ2 Questions & Answers] User699:
Can you try

fastboot getvar all

If your device is recognized correctly it should either give you a long list of values or an error.

Else you get something like "Waiting for devices".
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Questions & Answers] RelaxIamOnlyAghost:
< waiting for any device >

nothing else
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Questions & Answers] User699:
Okay. Then it makes sense that "fastboot devices" shows nothing.

Your problem is that your computer doesn't detect your phone in fastboot mode.

I think your cable should be okay (since adb works) but maybe you need some additional drivers?

You can also try solutions you find in the web if you search something like this:

Or "Windows" instead of "Computer" if you use windows etc.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Questions & Answers] RelaxIamOnlyAghost:
Ok, I got it. I did not turn "driver signature enforcement" off on my Win 10 system (but I got no error during driver install). After switching off "driver signature enforcement" and re-installed the adb and fastboot drivers, I got a warning that a driver without signature will be installed. I confirmed that warning and now fastboot is working well.
