[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] rhenoa24:
Hi ze7zez! Me and my dad greatly appreciates your insight and we were definitely enlightened on this angle.

We didn't really think that the power button was stucked pressed on because you can clicking sounds when you press on it. The phone never had problems with the buttons along the 6 years it accompanied us, perhaps its age does start to show.

We're going to look into it tomorrow. Thank you very much! You gave us the idea that it may be shorted inside or some sort. Thank you again!
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] rhenoa24:
A bit of update.

I pried open only the back case of the phone so I can see and clean up the power button. I used tools specifically for it and made no damage on the phone during the process.

We couldn't really see anything busted from there. The buttons on the circuit still do the neat clicking sounds on it. Battery still looks the same.

Testing out the theory that the power button was stuck on:

We tried to only press and hold the volume down and power button. It didn't go to the download menu. We needed to press down all three together to access it. It is confusing since we believe it would be a power button issue too, as the phone instantly turns on by itself when plugged to a power source (it's completely drained by now and we still can't turn it off manually)

Perhaps it's an internal circuit problem with the power button? It's confusing with the fact we still have to press on it to access the ODIN menu if it was like "on" the entire time it's looping.

Thank you in advance for further insights.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] Pranav2406:
Try restarting by pressing home, power and volume up all at once.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] rhenoa24:
Hi Pranav2406,

I have tried that as well in order to access the Recovery menu to factory reset, but no luck.

We have given up on repairing the phone and went out yesterday to buy a new one in a rush.

We will still send this broken phone to a repairman.

If he fixes it, I'd ask what he did on it so I can post an update on this problem as well.

It's better to let the expert troubleshoot it.

I do suspect the problem in the phone's hardware. I'm pretty confident with all the stock ROM flashing I've done so it's not a software problem.

Thank again for everyone's insights.

Perhaps this case is too much for an amateur to fix.

I had a weird WiFi bug that caused it to disconnect. Then when I tried to reconnect it would refuse to connect. It would say connected and immediately disconnect.

The issue seemed to be fixed by forgetting the wifi network and adding it back.
[Google Pixel 7] ern88:
Man that's sucks. May want to try and factory reset. I have had no issues with wifi on mine.
[Google Pixel 7] KillerDroid96:
I'm trying to avoid factory reset at all costs. It took 2+ hours to log into all my accounts. My bigger issue is it appears to be stuck on the system update installing. It has been 3.5 hours and still not done.

Did you try to change the Wifi Channel (try values 1 or 13 ) on your modem config page and set the Wifi frequency to 5Ghz ?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Aar0n:
When I had the Romeos 1.40.1 ROM I had setup my phone (Using advanced config and perhaps a registry tweak, I can't remember) to lock itself when I press the power button.

Now with the proven ROM 1.0.4 my phone doesn't lock at all. The power button just turns the screen off, and when I press it again it just shows my password lock, not the actual device keylock which I want. Also, sometimes after I unlock the password lock, the backlight is still dimmed until I lock and unlock the phone again.

Perhaps it's because the ROM has advanced config and Diamond Tweak.

My question is, how can I get it working so when I press the power button, the device is keylocked, and after a timer of say, 30 seconds, the device is auto keylocked. I know I did this without some special software such as S2U2 or PocketShield. I want it setup how I had it before without that.

Regards
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] darfri:
Apply the tweak again?

Keylocking is really problematic with TP. I've tried Sensorlock, Pocketshield but software keylockers get slow sometimes, especially when I am recieving a call. This makes no sense because using a PocketPC as a phone is preferable option :D. So I'd also prefer original keylocker but it locks always during a call so I dont get instant access to calendar which is my main goal of using a smart phone btw...
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] siijii:
Hello, I have got a used MI MAX 3 that had Android 8.0 on it as I remember. There is TWRP 3.2.2-0 on it and the Bootloader is unlocked. I tried to install the newest global ROM but after reboot it got stucked at the MIUI logo. Then I tried older ROMs, even Chinese ones. I 'm always stuck to the MIUI logo.

I noticed that on the Android find my device manager the device is called a MIX 2S, but I remember that in settings about phone it stated MI MAX 3 and from the size it can not be a MIX 2S.

I don't know what to do next, because I'm worried that if I flash a ROM by fastboot it could remove TWRP or close the bootloader and I can't undo that.

Any idea what I could do to make my MAX 3 usable again?

I read about a fake ROM in the early times of the MAX 3 where you would have to flash a chinese ROM to repartition the device before using a global ROM.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] foobar66:
I have something weird with the Google Play systemupdate.

I an currently on 'September 1, 2022'

When I click on it then once every 5 days or so I get a message saying that there is an update of 712K available (looks small to me).

Then 'something' is installed and the phone asks to restart. I obviouysly reboot.

However, I have a script (using adb) that checks ALL packages and versions and when I run this BEFORE and AFTER the upgrade -> NOTHING has changed.

Attached is an adb log where I grepped for 'Finsky'.

In the log you can see that it downloads a package called: com.android.mainline.libs

And from what I can judge from the log: the package is successfully decompressed and the resulting APK is copied to some location.

Then - judging from the log - I am assuming that the phone tries to install that package.

Then at the end of the log it says:

10-14 16:44:18.504 6712 7515 I Finsky : [65] mgc.a(91): IQ: no installs to evaluate. Skipping.

To be clear: this package does NOT exist on my phone.

As mentioned, after rebooting, NOTHING has changed (same packages, same versions).

Then for a few days I don't get any updated when I press the Play systemupdate.

Then suddenly, the same 712K reappears and the whole thing repeats again.

(play systemupdate remains on September 1, 2020)

Anybody have any clue what's going on here???

Could someone please check if you have the package com.android.mainline.libs on your phone?

Just do:

> adb shell
$ pm list packages | grep libs

and let me know if you see any output there.

@foobar66

I think this is an issue on Google's end:

I have a similar issue on an entirely different phone (Nokia X100, T-Mobile US variant).

The phone shipped with an out-of-date Google Play system update (Phone release date 10/21,the update was dated 05/21).

It showed an update was available (very small size, in kb's). I'd install, reboot. The update would install, then, the phone would reboot on its own a minute later & the update would disappear. This went on for 5-6 months until I finally got an actual update to install that brought me up to July 2022.

The issue is still ongoing, as I'm showing another update is available, that gets me to August 2022.It installs, reboots, uninstalls back to the older July 2022 Google Play system update.

I tried factory resets, they're of no help.

The only suggestion that I have is to reach out to Google directly.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] foobar66:
Thanks for the story. I guess I will have to wait some time to see if there is a future update which actually installs. I would prefer not to do a full reset as you indicate that it did not help.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] AlDollaz:
I have this issue, but with just YouTube. Every time I install the update then reboot, it reverts to 17.17.37. A real pain.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] kevinireland11:
Well I just got this 49mb system updateView attachment 5734885
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] KOLIOSIS:
@foobar66

Forgot to ask:

Which system update are you on?

FWIW, I'm on the latest Android 13 Beta & both the (system) Security update & Google Play System update are on October 2022.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] foobar66:
I am on October 5 system update (latest) so standard A13.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] kevinireland11:
After installing the 49mb update I got that 712kb update, A13 stable SEP
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] kevinireland11:
So after I installed the 712kb that was it, it didn't ask me to install again, they must have forgot to add it into the 49mb system update lolView attachment 5734907
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] KOLIOSIS:
That sounds exactly like what the OP described.

But, even after that small update, he did a deep look at things & there is no evidence of any actual addition of info/update installed from the previous September 2022 Google Play System update.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] foobar66:
Exactly, looks same like I have ... wait a couple of days and check that this 712Kb comes back. It keeps coming back for me, installs, then reboot (and I guess update is rolled back), then re-appears a few days later.

Will be interesting to see if I get a bigger October update ... usually I lag behind 1 month with Google play systemupdates.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] foobar66:
Hmm ... interesting ... looks like com.android.mainline.libs does exist on the phone, it's that one which - I believe - the 712K update is trying to upgrade (and which fails for some reason - or may be 'not needed').

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Illwun11:
I found the stock T-Mobile Android 9 ROM for a Galaxy Tab Active Pro, but when I try and use Odin to flash I get errors like SW REV CHECK FAIL : [boot]Fused 8 > Binary 2. Also, I have tried everything I could find on Google and here about getting the OEM Unlocking option to show, but no matter what I try I cannot get it to show. Am I screwed or am I missing something here? It shouldn't be this hard to go back to Android 9 since it's Android 11 that broke one of the features I need. The feature that no longer works is NFC when in Kiosk mode. It only works until the device goes to sleep. Once you wake up the device you have to exit Kiosk mode to get it working again.
[Google Pixel Watch] Orion73:
I'd just like to find out if anyone else has found that whilst charging that the watch can become a little hot?
[Google Pixel Watch] oknafiesta:
Yes, it gets hot when charging, it's fine after a few minutes tho.
[Google Pixel Watch] K4nj:
Should be fine
[Google Pixel Watch] aladin777:
For me the issue was that it got hot and stopped charging. Some other people commented that it depend on power source, if charging of pixel power adaptor or charging from laptop. I didn't test with laptop yet, just limit to short charging so it doesn't get hot, because it will battery if it gets hot too often.
[Google Pixel Watch] Quad_Plex:
gets nice and warm for me, totally normal for wireless chargers, especially in devices this size. Never got so hot as to be uncomfortable to wear right after charging.
[Google Pixel Watch] vlubosh:
Yeah, charging with for example Samsung 25w charger, watch gets hot after 40% of charging and stopped at 90%, charged with laptop, no issues, not so hot. So it depends on charger.

BUGS

Sometimes if device is in standby for just some seconds, notification at wake up won't work

after deleting the files or upgrading you got a Notification Error: Download NotificationFix from first post and run on you device

HOW TO CHANGE THE TIME:

in Shutdown.mscr:

Change the time in the red marked lines (miliseconds)

[Windows Mobile Software Development] maxniper:
Good work my friend i will try with my TF3D Rom ;) and report back
[Windows Mobile Software Development] JeckyllHavok:
It should work on every device with TF3D, it's not device specific.

I think the short_power.lnk trick is based on windows mobile, and not device specific, too.

So it should work.

At the moment it is just language specific.

If someon is skilled in MortScript he can customize it by himself, otherwise just tell me which language you need, and the names of your Program Files and StartUp folder.

If someone want's another time before standby, you can also tell me.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] notebook:
Thank you for your effort my friend I have 2 comments:

1 -Where can I find "NotificationOn.mscr" it is not there in the downloaded file.

2- after awake up from S2U2 the TF3d didn't load
[Windows Mobile Software Development] JeckyllHavok:
Sorry,

my mistake

not NotificationOn it's the file notificationpoweron.mscr.

With this file TF3D should start after standby

Have to correct in the HowTo:D

Pretty sure it's fine if you flash with the MiFlash tool or whatever it's called.

But why wouldn't you just unlock bootloader anyway? It's better to do this now than later, because bootloader unlock would wipe the device. If you're flashing a new region ROM via MiFlash, you'll need a device wipe (clean flash) anyway, so might as well unlock bootloader first and then swap to new ROM.
