I am dead sure it is Malware.

I got it up and running and looping a few times now. The battery draining probably cleared some flags that prevented a normal reboot.

Phone has survived a minute in safe mode. Let's see
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] panzer27:
Current status is that it stays on for 2~5 minutes.

There is a software update should I go for it ?
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] blackhawk:
Negative. Keep the playing field level. An update now could brick it.

Factory reset if you can. No known rootkits can worm out of the user data partition on Android 9 or higher. A factory reset will purge it if that's the cause. Kill the intruder.

Delete your Samsung and especially Google accounts in settings first if possible. Reset your Google account password after you factory reset, write it down. If it was malware try to figure out when, where and how it breached the device. Any odd behavior that signaled the event.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] panzer27:
I should have read this on time, I wen for the software update :( Wont go beyond 25%. Boot looping
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] panzer27:
I am in download mode. Can I flash a stock firmware using odin ? and will that Still keep my phone legit ?
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] blackhawk:
Did it completely download the update?

If not try to get into boot menu again. Factory reset. Otherwise it will need to be reflashed.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] blackhawk:
As long as you flash the correct stock rom. Make sure it's the right one!!!

Not sure about the best method. Make sure you find out what is the best shot as you could hard brick the phone if you goof this up.

Throw it to Samsung if in doubt.

I've been fortunate and never had to do this. One reason I leave the Android firmware alone, avoiding even upgrades and updates. Android firmware flashing is the most complicated I've seen. A PC bios or a Canon Pro shooter, router are a snap to do by comparison.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] panzer27:
It downloaded everything, rebooted and started installing the update. Reached 30% then slipped to bootlooping vigorously. To get to the boot menu I would have to discharge the phone again. Because of the installation process, do you think draining the battery could brick the phone ? I could leave it to discharge if this is not a risk and 30% will be rolled back.

Do advise.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] blackhawk:
Update or reflashing the stock rom?

You should never interrupt when it's flashing. Yeah it could definitely at least soft brick it.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] panzer27:
Taking it to samsung tomorrow morning. Lets see what they say.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] panzer27:
Update had installed 30%. I didnt start doing odin yet. Taking it to Samsung tomorrow morning
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] blackhawk:
Yeah probably been better if you had done that at the get go. If it was hardware it was a no win scenario anyway.

Nope, couldn't get into recovery at all. The repair cost me nothing, it was under warrenty so I was very lucky.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] panzer27:
@blackhawk

So I tried a replacement battery at the samsung repair store, flashed a new firmware, factory reset my phone but,

It will reboot after 2~5 mins. Its now definitely a motherboard issue.

RIP S20 Ultra (2020 - 2022)
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] blackhawk:
If you have a Samsung Experience center at a Best buy near you they can run advanced diagnostic tests on it. Worth a shot.

That's disheartening to hear about on a flagship device that isn't that old. My enthusiasm for Samsung stopped dead in its tracks after the N10+. If you can live without 5G and variable refresh rate the N10+ snap is a running machine.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] panzer27:
I really have lost hope, although I will definitely give it a shot.

You think the galaxy diagnostics software can work off of recovery mode ? The download mode doesn't wanna come on after the new firmware I flashed via odin.

Else, Ima just wait out till the next phone next year ig. I can survive off of an old OnePlus 7 till then.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] blackhawk:
Yeah that really sucks. Maybe you'll luck out.

Samsung and Android have been going downhill for almost 3 years. Doubt their next phone will be worth it.

My plan is to wait 2-3+ years. To that end I have 2 N10+'s that can fulfill that mission easily. Even if Samsung puts out the greatest Note ever next year (yeah, right🤣), I'll still wait at least a year or two to buy it and get a better price.

I've had it with their bs, both Samsung and Google Android.

The build quality and design on the N10+ N975U1 or N975U is excellent. I have both. Optimized SOT is 12+ hours. They came loaded with Android 9 and 10, not upgrading the firmwar! Only repair has been a replacement battery soon due for another on this heavily used >8k hour device. The display remains perfect.

Current OS load is over 2 yo on this one in my hand, still snappy fast and very stable. I recommend this device even today as it was Samsung at their zenith point (so far😖). It's a joy to use.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] panzer27:
I have duly noted your advocation for the Note 10, I'll make sure to keep it in mind next time.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] blackhawk:
The plus not the lite. It's a well balanced and designed phone before Samsung lost their minds. Combined with a Zizo Bolt case it will easily suck up 2-4 foot drops onto concrete (I've inadvertently tested that at least a dozen times).

I was also considering the S20U but when with a second N10+ because of its overall strengths with only minor weaknesses in today's market. It remains a solid, reliable work horse that's a joy to use. You're starting to understand my reasoning, unfortunately😖

PM if you have any questions about it.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] deepakd:
Got this issue on my S20 Ultra LTE. I was watching YouTube videos when phone hang and restarts. Since then, it's in a boot loop. Tried to get into Recovery but nada. So I let it drain battery while keeping the earphones connected. After 5 minutes, it was in Recovery. Did Wipe cache, same issue. Tried factory reset, phone went into Reboot loop and then went to Recovery gain. Now it's in Recovery mode but not responding to any buttons. This phone is just a nightmare. Got it's flex cable replaced 2 months ago for the screen issue. And now this. Not going to buy another Samsung.

For now, will try to flash official firmware. Not sure how to do it but will search.

UPDATE: Flashed official Firmware using ODIN, successfully done and rebooted. Was configuring the phone on welcome screen when it hung and rebooted. So definitely a hardware fault.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] blackhawk:
That sucks.

Likely a mobo failure. Probably from a drop or water exposure. Possibly poor assembly/QC.

You could double check the ribbon cable contact pins for damage. Is the battery known to be good? If it can't provide enough current that can cause erratic behavior. Generally not but booting puts a high current load on the battery.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] deepakd:
I honestly think something is wrong with cooling system or battery. It gets quite hot just above the middle within 5-7 minutes. The way it hangs just after 2-3 minutes of booting, seems to me like a battery issue. Will take it to Service center tomorrow. Let's see how much they quote.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] blackhawk:
That's about where the mobo starts or top of the battery. Internal battery shorts usually progress rapidly into obvious failures.

May be malware. Cooling it to 50-60F may buy you more time to backup. Make sure to verify the backup for file size and readability, copy/paste.

Unless it's a cheap fix now be a good time to consider upgrading to a N10+; no headphone jack but everything else is a hands down improvement.

Only downside is an used unit will likely be upgraded to Android 11 or 12; you can maybe rollback 12 to 11 but not 10. Android 9 or 10 are my preferred versions.

New ones are still available from a trusted CA vendor I think but aren't cheap. They're factory loaded with 10.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] deepakd:
Yeap.. just gonna get a quote from Samsung for it. Problem with them and other big brands is they don't repair things. They just replace parts even if the fault is just of a cable or a lose connection. And I'm still contemplating the new phone. Samsung and Apple are nogo for me now. In the meantime, purchased Lava Agni 2 and its bang for bucks. Though only available in India I think.
[Motorola Edge 30 Ultra / Motorola Moto X30 Pro] AkiraBBQ:
Hi, during a zoom meeting the bluetooth headset (Jabra Elite 85T) cannot be recognised properly. Audio comes out from the headset fine but the microphone is not working. Zoom somehow treats the headset as an audio out device and there's no "audio switching" icon on the top left corner. The "CrystalTalk AI" notification prompts in and zoom is apparently using the phone's mic. The headset also does not go into "calling mode" since pressing the left earbud to mute does not work. However the headset works fine with all other calling apps like phone, whatsapp and Line etc.

I've tried disabling CrystalTalk, "originall audio" in zoom setting etc but no avail. Any idea?

[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] jonga80:
Everything start failing after getting wet in a heavy rain, so it's not water resistant.

It seems are software errors. I did a factory reset and still the same, so maybe is about the hardware, but I don't understand why or how. Sorry for my English, I need some advise, those are all the errors I have:

- The music cut every 5-6 seconds in videos and music.

- Many apps crash and need to close like System, or any other app I'm using like Chrome, etc...

- Slow when turn on the screen with the button.

- Slow when unblock with the fingerprint.

- Slow when rotate the screen.

- Slow when I open the camera app.

- It doesn't recognize double tap in the screen anymore.

- I can't use calls, the app closes all the time.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] jonga80:
Yeah, I think so, actually I went to the most recommended phone repair shop in Bangkok and they told me they don't fix Google Pixel, they told me that is not very popular in Thailand. So I'm thinking to go to another shop, but I think is not easy to fix a Pixel in this country. Thank you for the advise.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] antonio_d25:
That's weird man... did your phone have cracks/been dropped many times before? Cuz I have literally swam with it (not intentionally , I'd just forget that it was in my pocket) at my building's pool many times and have kept it inside the pool for a few minutes and it's still working fine. I have the impression the phone is sealed pretty good. And it's still working fine after a few months.

The only error or malfunction I ever got was that the USB port has debris/water in it. But once I let it dry for a day or so, the phone continued working fine
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] jonga80:
Thank you for the reply.

Actually no, I didn't have any cracks/been dropped many times. I don't use any phone case, and looks good, it has almost two years already and the phone looks really good, some little scratches and nothing more. I mean, it was working very well until this heavy rain, and since I thought it was waterproof I recorded a video of the heavy rain, I was going in a motorbike. And after that is not the same anymore. I thought maybe with the factory reset but no, still the same. Maybe is the memory, or motherboard, or I don't know, I'm not expert about this technical things, but yeah, I think is quite weird.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] antonio_d25:
Reason I ask regarding big scratches/cracks/or being dropped - it affects the sealing of the phone and things could get out of place and if not sealed properly then water flows in. Hopefully you get it fixed (y)(y)

Two nights ago I got bored with my htc wizard, had only wm5. I googled htc tweaks and found xda... my personal heaven now. two days later I have a phone I'm actually interested in.. with Wm6, SKYFIRE ( totally cool ) and a bunch of other apps I never knew existed. I didnt find a thread to say thanks to xda developers... but thanks... really.

[Realme 7 Pro Questions & Answers] x3r0.13urn:
Hi everyone,

My friend had bought a second hand realme 7 pro. Upon resetting data/format data, he found that switch bootloader unlocked in the developer options is greyed out to enable state.

The device is clearly not rooted, checked upon yasnac, it fails the CTS, but pass on basic. I don't remember about the google certified status, but I'm pretty sure it's should be not certified.

Booting to fastboot works, and last line on fastboot show device unlocked: true, and when run the "fastboot oem device-info" clearly shows

device unlocked: true

device critical unlocked: false

Now, weird thing is, I remember some here say after bootloader is unlocked, the fingerprint will no longer work. In this case, under display fingerprint in his phone still works, and phone still receives OTA update and is able to install it (last update to firmware A12 F.18 (?)).

I'm not very familiar with realme. OTA while phone is unlocked is widely known in xiaomi, is it the same for realme?

And how about the under display fingerprint, is it really supposed stop working after unlocking bootloader?

Edit: Widevine is also L1, not downgraded to L3

I cant find much info on this device so I figured I would ask here. I picked up one of those Carplay AI Box dongles for the car and am having an issue keeping a bluetooth connection. Im trying to connect to and ODB MX+ which is attached to my car, via bluetooth and an app like DashCommand. Only issue is everytime I restart the car I have to go into the pairing menu of DashCommand for it to reactiveate bluetooth on the Ai Box. For whatever reason it seems bluetooth just isnt staying on. Even when the app is running and its connected the bluetooth indicator on the MI Box is off.

What device. You haven't listed what the device is details, what you've done to resolve it or what the reseller suggests.

You brought a cheap Chinese origin device and then expect support - do you realise xda isn't the seller or the support forum. What I mean by that is you have to put the effort in to get help
[Android Head-Units] psychoholica:
Wake up on the wrong side of bed today or whats your deal?

I came here asking for help which I've done multiple times over the years, never once getting such a crap response. Yes, I bought a cheap Chinese android device, have you never purchased anything from China? I bought it because from the limited info on the internet it seemed to be the fastest one out there with the Snapdragon 665 cpu. If there was a better one made my Samsung or whoever I would have bought that but they dont exist so excuse me for buying somethign from China.

Any why on earth would I assume XDA is the reseller? There are literally hundreds of thousands of threads on this site of people asking for help with something they didnt buy from XDA so no idea why the hostility.

Thanks for your worthless reply, why did you even bother?
[Android Head-Units] chrisz5z:
You could try one of the 'Bluetooth auto connect' apps on the Play Store.

But what I would do is use Tasker. Setup a profile with tasks that: turns on Bluetooth, then connects to your ODB device. And set the profile to activate when the display is 'on'.

You lucked out with yours as my CarPlay AI box doesn't even allow more than one device to be paired...so I've been unable to even pair my ODB reader.
