[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CZ159:
Hey I'm new to this forum and Android Tablets in general. I have received a Vodafone Smart Tab 4G, which doesn't boot up. It's an old Tablet and it hasn't been used in a couple years. I want to see if I can make it boot up and test whether it's still usable for minor tasks. I thought I'd try to install an update using an SD card, but it's surprisingly impossible to find anything from an official source. The service menu does say "KTU84P release-keys" which seems to suggest that it has Android 4.4.4 installed.

What I've tried so far:

1: Go into the service menu and do a factory reset.

2. Try to find an update file to install through SD card method (to no avail)

3. Put some alleged stock roms onto an SD card and try to use the update function (fails on the verification step)

4. Installed ADB & Unsigned Mediatek Vcom Drivers on Windows 10. ADB has no connection to the Tablet.

5. Downloaded and tried SmartTab4G_Recovery_KK_benjaminwan to no avail. It gets stuck at "waiting for device".

6. Downloaded SP Flash tool, but failed to find a ROM for the Smart Tab 4G with a scatter file.

7. Out of desperation I tried to flash it with a Smart Tab 3G Rom which had a scatter file, but when I press download nothing happens.

My current understanding is that the standard service menu isn't meant to be used to flash the firmware. If I had an official update file I might have had some success, but I couldn't find one. All the other attempts involving a connection to my Windows 10 PC failed, which seems to indicate that I might be using bad drivers. I'm honestly at my wits' end and I don't understand why this is any more complicated than going to the manufacturers website, finding my device, downloading the most recent system software and flashing it through the service menu. Hope someone can help me out with this one.

Update: Tried a different computer. Partial success. Device manager actually recognized an Android device this time. I installed the usb driver and the recovery batch actually didn't get stuck on "waiting for device" this time. That's great news, although I didn't get much further. Here's what I got:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CZ159:
Thread can be closed. I got it after all with the help of the available information. Turns out the recovery.bat was a dead end. Not sure why it didn't work for me with the batch. I tried the approach explained here with cmd and it worked fine.

fastboot -i 0x1bbb oem unlock

fastboot -i 0x1bbb boot cwm.img

Once I was in the cwm everything went smoothly since verification was disabled and I could install a custom rom. This probably took me way longer than it should've, but at least it's working now.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martiagosantinez:
Due to some finantial plot twists in my life I've been forced to dust out my old Motorola G 3rd gen and use it as my main phone. A couple of days ago I followed a guide in how to unlock the bootloader and installed Lineage OS, everything was decently smooth, except by the fact that it didn't recognize my SIM card.

So as a troubleshooting step (And since I still didn't had anything important on my phone) I decided to reload a recovery image I had made with the original ROM.

And here is where the troube started. TWRP finished the restoration of the image and I told it to reboot the phone, now it has been stuck on the "Warning Bootloader Unlocked" Warning screen for the past hour or two. When I try to turn it off I hold the power button and 10 second later the screen goes off, but a few seconds later it turns back on and goes back into the warning screen.

When I plug it into my computer it isn't recognized and for some reason it doesn't allow me to enter the Bootloader (It might be worth noting that the volume down button hasn't worked very well for some years.)

So, it's not completely unresponsive, I have a screen and it recognizes button presses to some extent, but I can't do anything with it...

Is there any way I could fix it? I'll appreciate any help. (I don't care if I have to format the phone, I just need to fix it)
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martiagosantinez:
So I don't know if this is helpful in anyway, but I'll wait for it to run out of battery and then I'll try to plug it into the computer again, maybe that helps in any way?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martiagosantinez:
I found this reddit thread

https://www.reddit.com/r/MotoG/comments/5iz8fz
Someone had the same issue (Or a very similar one) I had, but I don't know if OP figured out a way to fix it, or if he was able to get into the bootloader.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martiagosantinez:
Update, the phone ran out of battery and it's shows the low battery screen when I try to turn it on, or when I try to enter Bootloader, it's still not recognized by my PC
[OnePlus Nord 2 5G] hrumkaa:
Good day! Can someone please share original AlwaysOnDisplay (AOD.apk) &HorizonLight APK from OxygenOS 12.1 Android 12 DN2103_11_C_01 for OP Nord 2?

Unfortunately, i installed custom APK's from apkmirror and broke my AOD&HorizonLight, as a result notification icons on AOD does not show at all, i cant choose canvas and horizonlight is not working too.

I dont want to make full backup, hard reset and re-flash my nord 2, that's too much time consuming and risky.

I would really appreciate if someone can help to fix AOD and Horizonlight issue without loosing my data and settings.

Thanks!

I've got the same Problem...should've never installed those.
[OnePlus Nord 2 5G] muppetz:

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] Joe333x:
I've been using the Tab S4 unlocked korean 6gb ram 256gb storage version for years now on Tmobiles LTE network. The past month or so it doesnt want to connect to LTE. It will usually if I reset the network connections but then I lose my Bluetooth and wifi which is annoying. I tried replacing the sim card, calling tmobile, factory reset. It was on LTE for hours today and then went to the E which is 2g I assume. Im still on android 8. Anyone else experience issues lately on Tmo network? My unlock international S10 still works no problem on LTE.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] PMad:
Just got the fold 4, it's my first fold. I don't really care for OneUI but it's the only thing that lets me properly configure the home screen when folded or unfolded. The only issue I haven't been able to overcome so far is the lack of home screen grids.

Best I'm getting right now is 5x6. I'm mostly ok with 5 columns although I would prefer 6, but only 6 rows it's painful! It's there any way to up this?

I grabbed good lock and installed home up, but they are disabled in there and cannot be changed.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] blackhawk:
Use folders. Every pixel you light is sucking energy and causing wear on the oleds.

Or use One Handed Operation plus, not sure how that will work on the fold.

I have over a dozen hidden touch or swipe shortcuts on this homepage, 4 are on the Digi Clock.

View attachment 5698061
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] erick161:
You need to download good lock from the galaxy store. Then download home up module within good lock. There's TONS of customization options in good lock
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] Smittyzz:
God I can't thank you enough!!! Any other hidden gems like this one?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] erick161:
No problem! I've used good lock for years...it's one of the most amazing hidden gems of samsung. Why they don't push that more is beyond me!

I haven't found many more. Then again...good lock covers almost all the bases IMO when it comes to tweaking the UI.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] PMad:
I'm already using folders. One of my issues is a widget I've used for years looks absolutely terrible when it's as thick as it is. If I could increase the rows more it would get thinned out enough to look good.

I did already mention that i did this. The problem is the grid size is locked in the home up app.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] blackhawk:
Try resizing the widget or throw on the 2nd page.

One UI is a great launcher once you learn it's capabilities. It's the best one for Samsung's and it's rock solid stable. The Edge clipboard stores multiple copies, very useful. Much of the Samsung ecosystem is great but it has its quirks🤣 I like virtual navigation keys, hate swipe, no problem with Samsung. One Handed Operation plus lets you do a bunch of tricks too, including this. Useful when an app locks navigation.

DIGI Clock is slick, one of my favorite apps. I use as a launcher constantly. Very customizable clock too.

View attachment 5699447
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] PMad:
I've tried resizing them but they wont go thinner than the rows themselves, which leaves them super thick. I'd like these widgets im using (there's 10 total, its the "Crypto Ticker Widget") to be roughly half the height they are, but its seeming like this is going to be impossible.

I understand the Samsung ecosystem, my household has always had Samsung phones, and im the tech guy so im always using them and learning them, but none of the methods i've found work for the Fold 4. I've attached a screenshot so you can see what i mean. I do have cover screen mirroring on so the unfolded phone's desktop is 2 separate desktop columns instead of one big one. I like this better and had even more issues when i didnt do it this way.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] blackhawk:
Damn. That be slug ugly. No way you want that on your homepage. Throw on the 2nd page if you must have it. No other size widgets for it?

People over on Samsung forum might have more ideas for you.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] PMad:
Yeah there's no other sizes. I've spent hours looking at other crypto widgets and none of them give me the features I want. I already have 5 pages of stuff, so I'm thinking I may just have to view it as a whole portfolio within an app instead, which really sucks.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] blackhawk:
That drive me nuts having that many pages, lol I'm bad enough with browser tabs. Strange they're displaying so badly; Samsung has a large share of the market.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] PMad:
I completely agree! I have one screen that I sit on most of the time. I usually swipe left to see my first list for the day (asking with a few other things like keep notes), and to the right for gaming and my calendar. This phone is different though... Since there's a lack of rows, now I have to use more pages. I guess it's time to either make my own fold launcher, or rethink my idea of a home screen haha. I think I'll go with the rethink. I'm tired of programming.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] blackhawk:
I use the homepage mostly. The folder are more inconvenient but save battery and display.

The shortcuts I use the most are on Digi Clock's quad switch or on the sides, One Handed Operation plus. The second page is a scratch page.

My biggest grip about Samsung is that the File Manager can't be set to sort by date photo was taken. Idiots.

Renumbering photos isn't easy either... and that will lead to problems. Canon's Zoom Browser or DPP sure by nice to have on Android...
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] wes53177:
If you like widgets but want them minimized check out pop widget.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] Szadzik:
What about Smart Widget feature built into One UI?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] PMad:
I couldnt find Pop Widget, but i did see Popup Widget 3, is that it?

I did try this but it actually makes my widgets even taller! I like the idea but it doesnt work so well with stock/crypto widgets like this.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] wes53177:
When you scroll down in the settings you can edit to any size.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] blackhawk:
Depending on the developer some of the Galaxy store icon packs may not display or respond to all setting options correctly. You need to test each; if one doesn't display correctly try another.

[OnePlus 9 Pro] ChrisFeiveel:
You can uninstall the update from the apps.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] hrumkaa:
Thanks, this fixed my AOD, but not HorizonLight! What is the name for HorizonLight apk, i probably need to uninstall updates too?
[OnePlus 9 Pro] ChrisFeiveel84:
when you have the apk what you have installed on the phone internal store click install it than you see the name from the app what will be update

and than you can search the app unter all apps and uninstall the update

maybe is it the personalisations apk (com.oplus.uxdesingn)?
[OnePlus 9 Pro] RASTAVIPER:
Which app is related to the Horizon Light?
[Other SmartWatches] clavo:
So I own a few OMATE TrueSmarts. Yes they are old. Yes they have problems.... but I like this watch style, size, square screen, rootability, screen size, etc.

Are there any currently available clones of this watch that support 4G and or has a newer version of android that anyone has been happy with?

Good day!

I bought my first Nord N20 5G from t-mobile.

it updated my n20 5g to GN2200_11_A.07

Can I still root?

thank you

Brian
[OnePlus Nord N20 5G] 949ing:
Yes you can , if you can extract your boot.img yourself or find an A.07 boot file somewhere
[OnePlus Nord N20 5G] gulkor1986:
Thank you! I will look for guide and online on how extract boot.img from phone.
[OnePlus Nord N20 5G] PsYk0n4uT:
I've already posted this a few times but just use DSU sideloader to boot a prerooted GSI then use Partitions Backup and Restore app from playstore to save copies on your device. Install magisk app and patch the extracted boot.img and then transfer backups along with the patched boot image to your PC for safekeeping and flash the patched boot.img in fastboot. You can rename any .bin files to .img to flash them if they get extracted as a .bin file. Check your settings in the partitions Backup and Restore app before starting the backup process. You can choose to save them in an easy to find directory and for me it was better to choose to save them RAW/uncompressed then just compress them all into a single archive rather than having a hundred separate archives for each individual partition because it makes it easier if you have to reflash things if you need to recover. You may want to disable battery optimization for the app because it takes a while to extract all the images doing a full backup but its well worth the wait time if it saves you from a brick later on
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThaDraGun:
I'm trying to setup a brand new firestick 4k since my other one is up to date and I want the launcher changed without using that launch at boot app.

This firestick is currently at 6.2.8.1 (NS6281/3387). It's not rooted.

I kept the internet on for as short as possible while I was setting up the firestick. However, it still started downloading an update.

6.2.8.9 (NS6289/3905) is approx 50% downloaded. I still have it connected to my wifi network, but I killed my actual internet connection.

What do I do now??? I tried removing the files with ADB on my PC but I think I followed the wrong tutorial. The download is still there.

Any ideas??

Hello all, I have a problem with my tablet Huawei MediaPad M6 10.8,

I cannot update the tablet to Harmony OS, I have tried literally all the methods on the Internet, and no method worked for me.

Finally, I formatted it, it may be the solution, but unfortunately, even formatting was not the solution.

The device model is (SCM-AL09) and it works with the latest version (11.0.0.185),

What frustrated me the most is the lack of a device section in the forum haha, please help

It's bad, I didn't expect to regret my purchase of the device compared to its price at the time with the features it offers, and now, I started to feel very disappointed and knew that whatever the specifications and whatever the price, I would not buy anything except from a popular brand and a wide community.

It's not what you get for the price, it's what you get after you buy it, which is support, whether from the community or otherwise.

I received my 512gb fold 4 3 days ago from Samsung USA. Bought it online via trade-in.

(SM-F936UZEEXAA)​

The problem I'm getting is I can't seem to register it at Samsung members app for warranty,

It says Device model Invalid and IMEI is invalid too. Even at https://www.samsung.com/us/support/account/products/ It wont register.

I had 0 problems with the two units of S22 Ultra I bought the past few months and an s21 ultra last year.

Had a chat with a support agent and he registered it at his end but now it's not showing the Manufacturer Warranty date as it is supposed to.

Anyone experiencing the same thing? or is it just me?
