[General Questions and Answers] ShalokShalom:
Hi

I use a Realme X, while I assume the model might be not relevant to this case.

I tried several methods to flash both stock Rom`s and alternative ones, I did use both adb commands and adb sideloading and the official Realme tool.

To me, as a computer expert but phone noob, it seems like something fundamental might be broken in some protocol or even hardware.

Whatever I do, the firmware flashes to a certain extend and cancels then.

In most cases, there is not even a error message, it just fails to flash completely and pretents everything is good.

The phone is unlocked, has 3.4 TWRP installed and I can access it via my computer.

I used two different Windows computer, in order to exclude the host OS as the source of the failure.

Also used around 3 different cables.

Moving data around also works, I already did try to move the ROM to the device and install it there, same.

The device ran perfectly fine before I decided to try another ROM.
[General Questions and Answers] ShalokShalom:
Is there any log that I can provide?
[General Questions and Answers] ValgarBaldr:
Twrp log would tell what happens. Also mitool would make logs on the pc.
[General Questions and Answers] ShalokShalom:
MiTool for a Realme device?
[General Questions and Answers] ValgarBaldr:
I miss read that.
[General Questions and Answers] Jsouwl:
please suggest. I was using quest2 as usual, put it on charge, after a while i came back do discover it got stuck in bootloop. Red led flashes for some period, after that headset turns on for a couple secs and turns back off. I tried entering bootloaders menu, did factory reset, held power button for 60+ seconds, wiper proximity sensor. I have native oqulus facial interface. Anybody could suggest any further actions? Would be greatyly thankful.
[Moto G Stylus (2021)] kevinchristopherson:
Well, this device I sure do enjoy with magisk. And being rooted alone is a blessing, be it a small one.

I am surprised though no development to speak of is seen. The only problem with the GSI's I found, is the no cell service/data/messages deal...

If you look in phone info in the MMI, IT DOES read the sim card and knows the provider as well as the number.. though I have found a fix yet to get the cell service running.

I personally am looking for a stripped down ROM.

Maybe some of you who have discovered some tips, mod's, and the like... please share here and see if we can make this device more pleasing.

Ok I'm stepping off my soapbox. Peace.

TTFN.

Spot on Kevin !! My first Motorola and nothing to complain of cept this is 1 of the yeast active forums I've seen for Motorola

Why?

guess I'll have to go find some generic mod's that will work with this phone

There's always magisk mod's along with LSPosed

Let me think and get back here

IS THERE ANYONE ELSE WHO HAS FOUND ANYTHING ? That's works with our device

Thereare so many different solutions to the no sim problem with gsi I guess I will try them one at a time

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Max_x2:
Hello fellow XDA users!

I recently bought a Note20 Ultra 5G. TL;DR is my hard earned money went towards buying this phone and so far, I wasn't able to unlock it.

I bought the thing because I wanted to have a powerhouse to create youtube content for a project I've been brewing for some time now. It's not my first samsung, nor android and I'm a bit familiar with the platform. I tried flashing a combination file with multiple Odin versions in order to unlock the bootloader, but I get the " Please get the approval to use factory binaries (pit) " message. It currently boots, but immediately goes into locked imei mode when android is booted so no possibility lo activate developer settings so far as I can tell. It asks for a PIN code. To my surprised, there is a fastboot mode but it's not fastbootd, obviously, so more advanced commands don't work. I did wipe it via the stock recovery, but as soon as setup is done, it goes back into locked imei mode.

Any idea of my options at this point? I bought it through facebook marketplace so a refund is not possible :(

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] 1212121212121212:
I think you should find out what carrier the network is locked to. If you still have the person in contact for the phone, or conversations, I would report it to the police
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Yeah. State attorney general's office and the FBI.

That's theft by wire, it falls under their jurisdiction... if they're not to busy investigating school kid parents.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] iamsuperbash:
Were you able to test it when you met with the buyer? If that's carrier locked then chances are that device was reported as lost/stolen or has unpaid balance. If it was the latter, you'll have a hard time as that probably been reported to FCC.
[HTC Wings] coolcat615:
The dial button won't work on my phone suddently for some reason. If someone calls... it will allow me to hit it and it'll answer but if I just pick up my phone and hit the dial button (to dial someone) nothing will happen. It'll just show my today screen as if it's disabled for something. I can go the long way around and hit "phone" in my menu or hit the dial button when I happen to be in a program but it refuses to work just by pressing it?

Any ideas?
[HTC Wings] nielswillems:
:mad:

This is an double post.

One in the right section ''Harrald'' and a few hours later in this section ''Wings''

Please don't post anything about the T-mobile wing in the section of the HTC Wings!!!

This happens to often and is really annoying.
[HTC Wings] 10332007:
Try power cycling your phone, happened on my s730 once and that fixed it. Not sure what caused the button to fail out, probably was trying to run to my on my phone at the time. Either way try that and see what happens. If that doesnt work what software changes have you recently made if any?

Its not really annoying, and it doesnt really hurt you. You can nicely point them in the right forum's direction or maybe try to help them out. No need to chew people out for an honest mistake, I am sure you have made a few. I know I have.
[HTC Wings] PeoplesChamp21:
Have you tried hard resetting the phone? Maybe it will work or maybe not.

1st June AUGC version on GW4 44mm LTE in Romania
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] fliptwister:
From what I have read BUH9 is the most current firmware for LTE watch in US. I do not believe that the LTE watch in US received either of the two September updates (BUI5 and CUID).
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] krogoth:
It does. 44mm LTE. Poland. It fixed touch bezel. Now it works almost as good as on Watch Active 2.

[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] fliptwister:
Good news that some parts of the world people are getting updates on LTE watches. I imagine this has to do with there being multiple versions of all 4 LTE watches. There are 3 versions of the Watch4 LTE models and 4 versions of the LTE Watch4 Classic models. Each of these versions are configured with different band support (LTE & UMTS). I expect this makes doing updates more difficult.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] sjgoel:
I am on BUH9 of 23-Aug, and there are 2 updates after that, of 10-Sep and 29-Sep. I am missing both.

Latest is R880XXU1CUID of 29-Sep.

No idea why it does not update.

View attachment 5423293
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] fliptwister:
Confused. I thought you said you had LTE watch. You are listing updates of Bluetooth model of 42mm Classic. The 42mm Classic LTE model is SM-R885. Do you have bluetooth or LTE version?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] sjgoel:
Oh, I was mistaken and somehow had the wrong model number.

I have 44mm, LTE Model: SM-R875UZKAXAA on T-Mobile.

Hi, can you tell me please what LTE operator do you use in Romania, please? I have a share number subscription to Orange Romania and my GW4 LTE 44mm (non-classic version) has the first firmware version (R875FXXU1AUGC), as I didn't receive any new update since I bought it one month ago. Please, I need to solve by upgrade the overheating issue during GSM calls, so tell me what you did to upgrade your watch. Thanks in advance for an answer.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] ciprianos3:
Hi crigus, only orange supports lte in Romania. I bought the watch from emag online store.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dolgogi:
New ota rolled out yesterday for Australia.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] crigus:
Thanks for your answer Ciprianos. I bought the watch from the same retailer. Can you tell me when you bought yours? Did it come with updated software version or you have updated later? The update was made automatically or did you restart/reboot your watch for update it? It's strange that are other people on Softpedia forum who are in the same situation with me, using the first firmware version. I'm wondering if I need a reboot and a reinstall of my GSM networking subscription, as I came from an old one from a Galaxy Watch Active 2. Please help me with some details.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] ciprianos3:
I received the watch on 1 oct. I think the update was made automatically but im not so sure. You could reboot both the watch and the phone, and if that doesnt work, i heard reinstalling the samsung apps is a posible solution to get the update. I think you should not use lte with your current firmware version.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] ekerbuddyeker:
Still no update
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] ciprianos3:
Maybe if you reset the watch and change the region
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] kbboykin:
Im on TMobile in the US and I have the GW4 non-Classic LTE . The last update was indeed BUI5 on 10/6/2021
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] jtOttawa:
Dayum, the LTE version sucks for updates! And everything else. Except the ability to occasionally connect via LTE, of course. 🤣😉
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] kbboykin:
Yep. Updates suck. Occasionally, got an update timely, but most of the time, carriers delay OTAs.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] jtOttawa:
But wouldn't most of these be 'unlocked' - that is, purchased from sources other than carriers?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] kbboykin:
Yes, but if you've activated them on a carrier, they then control the updates.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] wilsonfreemusic4:
Hi all,

We all know that when we format and change to a new ROM,

we lose all our data and apps installed.

What's the best method to have the apps automatically re-install what was on the previous ROM to the new ROM with the least effort?

I have like 50-70 apps and I prefer not to go through the app store downloading them 1-by-1.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] PYCON:

[Moto X4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Knuxyl:
If you have installed a custom rom and are trying to return to stock you may come across errors like this

(bootloader) is-logicalartition: not found

and then fastboot will give up.

This is due I believe to the phone being plugged into some USB 3 ports. The Moto X4 uses USB C, however it only supports USB 2. I can only assume that the Moto X4 isn't fully USB C compliant or the stock bootloader has implemented fastboot incorrectly when communicating on certain USB chipsets.

I plugged my phone into my Lenovo USB C Travel Hub and that into my USB C 3 front port on my desktop and fastboot started working correctly. The error above still shows up for some reason.

Motorolas Rescue software and RSD Lite do not work around this error. Motorolas software doesn't even use the latest nor a full release of fastboot, it uses 26 rc1.

In summary, USB connection is the problem, so try a a different USB port, like a dock or another PC, and use the latest fastboot from platform-tools on Android SDK website, linked below.

Android SDK Platform-Tools is a component for the Android SDK.

[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] Oyeve:
Hi all, been rocking my flip 3 and loving it BUT, my Buds Live while I can hear music and calls and control volume up and down, they dont double tap to go to next track, dont triple tap to go back a track and does not pause on single tap. I removed them from the system, re added them, reset them but no go. Works perfectly on my Note 20 and tab s7+.

My OG samsung buds work just fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] blackhawk:
Interesting.

My Buds+ have similar issues on my 10+. Got tired of tapping my head and just use direct input now. I have Poweramp so thought it may be interacting.

Now I wonder after hearing of your issues. I just pushed it aside, will play with it again.

In your case make sure no power management is active as it will cause all manner of erratic behavior. Try clearing the system cache too.

Look over all settings.

A factory reset will only waste your time...
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] twistedumbrella:
It could be a compatibility issue that needs a firmware / kernel update to resolve. The Note 20 Ultra and Tab S7+ were bluetooth 5.0 (same as the Galaxy Buds Live) and this one is bluetooth 5.1 (even though 5.2 is the newest). The original Galaxy Buds are 5.0 LE, which may have better backward compatibility with the current drivers.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] Gilg@mesh:
works fine for me with same setup, using YouTube Music.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] Oyeve:
Now it's happening with my OG buds. Only workaround that seems to help is to briefly turn bluetooth off then on. I use PowerAmp for music playback as everything else just sucks in comparison. You would think Samsung buds would work perfectly with a Samsung device, but nope. This is why I will always be an advocate for a headphone jack and decent wired headphones! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] twistedumbrella:
Have you contacted Samsung about it? It's starting to sound like a failing hardware
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] blackhawk:
Do a network reset.

Clear system cache.

Disable ALL power management as this is the most likely cause!

Developer options > standby apps, all buckets should show as active otherwise power management is active. Go to Device Care> battery, only fast charging should be toggled on.

If those fail...

It's better to leave A2DP hardware offload off but in your case try turning it on.

Pic below is it disabled...
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] twistedumbrella:
Don't waste your time wiping the imaginary cache.

A better alternative (based on THIS phone) would be to boot into recovery and select the repair apps option. It will simulate the rebuild that happens when installing OTAs.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] Oyeve:
Thanks, I will try these options and report back!
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] Gilg@mesh:
hmm, I noticed same thing with my Bose NC 700, can adjust volume but nothing more.

edit: seems to be working now.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] Oyeve:
UPDATE:

One of the last 2 carrier updates fixed this issue. Also fixed the issue of HBOMax not logging in. All working now. Camera still sucks tho.
[Xiaomi Mi 11] Snow Cat123:
So, I bought my Mi 11 on a contract from some website I've never heard of and it was cheap. It's legit, but it's a US (IMEI number is region '05') phone flashed with a UK firmware. Are different regions of the Mi 11 built for different frequencies or do all Snapdragon chips support different countries?

Only because I've noticed it says I have like 3 bars of 4G signal but my mobile data just doesn't work and never loads. Like would I be missing on some 5g goodness too?

Also would there be anything I'm missing out on if the phone is in a different region?

Thank you!
[Xiaomi Mi 11] pittrich:
I think the Mi 11 generally supports all bands. Perhaps the frequency selection is limited by the firmware. I haven't heard of any special UK firmware. There are 7 different ROMs. Actually even 8. The Vodafone ROM does not appear here. The last two letters after the number are decisive. Post it to you.

Just try the global stable. Maybe then your problem will be solved.
[Xiaomi Mi 11] lil_kujo:
You could try to use the selection network options from testing mode.

Try using that method : https://itsitadda.com/how-to-use-more-than-20-network-types-in-your-miui-android-phones/
[Xiaomi Mi 11] lil_kujo:
I have 5g but you have to remember that it depends on the provider and the 5g band the provider offers. My phone gets 5g with attnt and T-Mobile at least in the USA .
[Xiaomi Mi 11] Snow Cat123:
Ah thank you my dude I'll have to contact my network then see what's up with it.
