[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Th1a:
Hi, thanks for the reply!

Sorry forgot to mention that; no, unless I change the watch to either airplane mode or unpair it of the phone, and even then after changing to the correct time zone, after pairing again with the phone it changes back to the wrong time. If I go to Settings>General> Date and time it´s grayed out on Synced with phone ... which is funny because it´s not synced : /
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Th1a:
Got some news!!!

I don´t know how or why but I got it working!!

I checked the settings on the phone, and unchecked the option of update the time by the network (don´t think that´s what helped but maybe someone finds this helpful), and after that I decided to restart the watch, can´t recall if I tried that or not...

But apparently that did the trick, I don´t know what was the problem with the alarm (why the first time it worked by setting it up one hour earlier and next day didn´t), but.. it´s fixed!

Still Thanks!!

Try to describe your problems with details in one thread to explain to others what is current and what is not.

So far you haven't written anything specific so it's hard to infer what you have a problem with.

You are not to create a zip file, but to modify the script and overwrite it in the zip file.

[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] samirpichku:
Hello Community,

I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out here as I am facing a persistent WiFi connectivity issue with my OnePlus 5T that has been ongoing for the past two weeks. I have tried various troubleshooting steps, but unfortunately, the problem persists. I'm not very well-versed in technical matters, so I thought I'd seek some advice from fellow users who might have encountered a similar situation. I tried emailing the support team, but that didn't help.

The Issue: My OnePlus 5T is having trouble obtaining an IP address from my 2.4GHz router. The Wi-Fi is often displayed as 'disabled' under the Wi-Fi settings, and when I attempt to connect, it goes through the stages of "connecting," "authenticating," and obtaining an IP address." While occasionally it connects, more often than not, it fails to establish a stable connection. I've even resorted to using Airplane mode with Wi-Fi enabled to get intermittent connectivity, but this is also unreliable.

Troubleshooting Steps Taken: I have tried various troubleshooting steps, including:

Disabling the automatic Wi-Fi switcher that enables simultaneous cellular and Wi-Fi usage.

Ensuring that my SIM cards are disabled or physically removed from the device.

Clearing the cache from the recovery mode.

Resetting all network settings.

Forgetting and reconnecting to the Wi-Fi network.

Rebooting the phone with the default settings.

Using the 1.1.1.1 app by Cloudflare, which sometimes provides temporary relief.

Additional Information:

I have two routers in my setup, and both exhibit the same behavior with my OnePlus 5T.

Other devices in my household are functioning normally with the Wi-Fi networks.

I have tried various physical adjustments like cleaning the antenna band and using the phone without a case, to no avail.

Request for Assistance: Given the extensive efforts I've put into troubleshooting, I believe this might be a hardware or software issue specific to my OnePlus 5T. Unfortunately, I am unable to update my Android version as there are no available software updates at this time. I kindly request the expertise of the OnePlus support team to guide me in resolving this Wi-Fi connectivity issue.

I would greatly appreciate any suggestions, solutions, or insights from the community that might help me address this issue. If anyone has experienced a similar problem or knows of a potential workaround, please share your insights.

Thank you in advance for your time and assistance. I look forward to your responses.
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] shamanoid:
Hello all,

Is there a way to get rid of the unlocked BL warning on each startup?

So annoying lol..
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] XDRdaniel:
Yea, lock the bootloader
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] woundman:
Correct. However, Motorola is lame and if you relock your bootloader.... There is a very strong chance you'll never be able to unlock it again. I highly recommend against relocking your bootloader. If you do, please backup your cid data.
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] XDRdaniel:
I've done it, works fine. I'm not a fan of custom ROMs. As long as I payed less money than having to buy global version, and I get updates, all good with me. I don't need root either
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] woundman:
Absolutely! I've actually bricked one of my X40s. Flashed RETEU over the RETCN rom and locked the bootloader (no longer able to unlock the bootloader). I'm going to assume you unlocked the bootloader and relocked on the same firmware, and had no issues, correct?
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] ThE_MarD:
Heyyo, yeah to relock the safe method to do so is run the Motorola Rescue and Smart Assistant tool to ensure it is running the correct stock ROM for your model.

As for the bootloader warning? Just tap your power button twice to skip the waiting time before it continues booting so that your phone boots faster. ;)
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] shamanoid:
Cool, didnt know about double tap option, thank you.

Still hope we can get rid of it some day.

Thanks for all the answers, but locking BL is not an option for me, I live on Custom roms and magisk :)
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] ThE_MarD:
Since we cannot relock the bootloader on custom ROMs? The only other option is to mask that screen with something else, which doesn't get rid of it and doesn't speed up the boot time, so I just suggest double-tap the power button
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] mxz55:
I agree that double tap ("pause this screen" and then continue) is the way, because when you're about to boot your device, your finger is on the power button, you then click it - what's the harm in keeping your finger there and just doing 2 additional presses? If you need a faster boot & really can't wait that message to pass on its own.

My point is, it's trivial by any means, why would you even worry about it
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] nosferatu123:
hey guy! i bought today z fold 5 and love it very much, i had befor z fold 4 but i sell it for iphone 14

[Lenovo Legion Y700] Dr. Light:
so i was messing around with the tablet pretty heavy before i left for deployment. i had unlocked it and put a custom GSI rom on it. now i would like to re-lock the boot loader and go back to the factory rom. i know how to reflash the factory rom but any idea how to lock the bootloader? i remember trying it before i left with the adb commands and it didn't work. anyone have a step by step? thanks!
[Lenovo Legion Y700] Isrgish:
For me just

fastboot flashing lock

worked
[Lenovo Legion Y700] Dr. Light:
do i need to be in "fastboot" "recovery" or in "bootloader" mode? because whenever i use the "adb devices" the tablet only shows up when the tablet is on in regular mode. the others it just says list of devices attached and doesn't show anything. and whenever i run that command it either says waiting for devices and never does anything or fastboot error: command failed. any idea whats going on? thanks
[Lenovo Legion Y700] Isrgish:
In "fastboot" you need to use "fastboot devices"

[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] trevzv:

[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
The dilemma is just not worth it. Charge as per your will to keep mental health intact.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] sklchan:
just enable the battery protection which limit to 85% max level and just plug in the charger when it's available as no matter you keep it overnight or keep it plug in all the time, your battery still at 85% with ~4.25V vs the max voltage rating of 4.47V that the battery can handle... this method also won't heat up the battery as well... while you're plugged in your phone will remain 85% until you unplug it where you will get minimum of 9 hours SOT with normal usage (video, browsing, messaging, calling, music) and minimum of 5 hours SOT with gaming, camera, gps...
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] PresidentMAD:
No matter how well you treat your device. It will die. Even under optimal conditions, it might last longer, but still, it will die.

Smartphones are engineered to break.

Even if you manage to keep your battery healthy over many years, the manufacturer will stop providing software updates, making your vulnerable, or the manufacturer will ruin your device with a final software update (Sony)

I understand that you want to keep your device in Pristine condition, especially after you have paid that obscene amount of cash, the manufacturer is asking.

I am feel the same way.

But it's not worth it.

If creates a lot of headache for you, and in the end, one way or the over, it will die.

The manufacturer made sure of that.

So use it, charge it as you go, and dont think about expanding its life.

The manufacturer made sure it will die on time one way or another.

The manufacturer is not your friend. Its not my friend either.

Its nobody's friend.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] serrrgei:
it is really matter temperature of battery. If temperature around you is too cold or hot, it doesn't matter how you charge your phone, battery will be dead faster anyway. It is very important to charge phone when it is not cold or hot

Hi friend

I bought a Redmi Projector Pro, Chinese version. I want to install the localization & other launcher, but in which case I want to be sure that I can return to the factory settings. I found - the recovery menu buttons are different from other models of xiaomi projectors and TVs.

usually, to enter the recovery menu , you need to do the following steps:

1. turn off

2. press and hold the OK and BACK buttons

3. turn ON

can't get into recovery menu, will start homepage (launcher)

i tried holding many different buttons - but didn't find a solution.

tell me how i can find a solution, or can (and how) i flash it if the system does not boot

i turn on & activate adb

does anyone have any ideas?

你好，通常对于小米TV设备来说，你可以使用第三方桌面来替代原版桌面，以供更好的自定义，同时可以保留REC。或者你可以将设备system分区加入你想要预安装的应用，然后重新刷入。又或者你可以将设备boot分区通过magisk进行ROOT，直接修改原版系统。总之想要保留REC最简单的操作是修改原版系统而不是刷入三方系统。

Hi

I recently got my watch wet, which caused a short circuit on the back button. Now, every time after a while, the watch wakes up because Samsung Pay gets triggered. I opened the device and cleaned the components with alcohol, but unfortunately, it didn't help. Since this is an old device and I mainly use it for notifications, I would like to fix this issue without any cost. I've been thinking about installing a different software that doesn't trigger the application or debloating the software.

I would appreciate any suggestions. Thank you in advance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] 8ctavian:
Hi there,

I'm new to the board. Trying to fix my GFs Samsung SM-G930V. But I have serious issues. I will try to keep it short. This is the story so far:

The S7 got stuck while in OS. It is untouched. Always received updates etc. No custom rom, rooting or anything. Okay, so I held the power button until it went black. Turned it on again and the S7 got stuck in a bootup loop. So I entered stock recovery mode and wiped the cache. This had no effect. The phone's still stuck in bootup loops. Finally I entered download mode just to look up the status messages shown there. Here's what's listed there:

ODIN NODE (HIGH SPEED)

PRODUCT NAME: SM-G930V CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official

SYSTEM STATUS: Official FRP LOCK: ON QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE RP SWREV: B11 (2, 1, 1, 1, 1) K11 S11 SECURE DOWNLOAD: ENABLE

When I remember correct, from then on, when I try to start the phone, it ALWAYS trys to boots to recovery mode. No matter what I try, it always does that. And it crashes hard. Reboots 2-3 times, then goes off and seems to be dead. I have to wait like 15 minutes until the device reacts again.

So... I dld ODIN3 V3.13. Downloaded the latest firmware I could find for my device:

G930VVRSBCTC1	B Full Files	Oreo(Android 8.0.0)	20200320183142

Flashed

everything

with Odin. BL, AP, CP, CSC, USERDATA. After fidelling around a bit (had to use PIT cause of invalid ext4 image error) every component PASSED the installation OK. But on every ODIN-reboot the phone tries to boot into stock recovery! Argh!

Now Im desperate. Everything flashed to latest stock and still it doesn't work! How can I get out of this recovery hell? Help is highly recommended. Maybe FRP LOCK: ON is the problem?? Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] T3hdubzy:
Hello All,

I'm trying to remember the name of the official tool from Samsung that allows you to restore factory firmware to devices. I found something called Samsung Recovery Solution but I haven't been able to find where to download it, and it seems to be something that should come with Windows but I don't have it. Did they stop supporting the software or something?

Here's what I'm looking to do. I know we all probably realize that Verizon locks the bootloader and makes it so you are unable to flash custom firmware or root. While it does make it more challenging, I have been successful in doing so in the past. Let me preface the rest of this by saying I have the memory of a goldfish, and I absolutely do not understand this stuff. It was likely an accident that I was ever able to do it, and for reasons I will never know.

Currently I'm working with a SM-T387V Galaxy Tab A 8 and I've run into the same issue trying to root that I ran into when I had an S7 Edge, which is that Verizon locks all their devices. Honestly I wish I would have remembered before I bought this tablet, but it's been laying around for a few years now and I'm not doing anything with it.

Previously I was able to do this using the Samsung tool and downloading a stock firmware for I believe ATT or Tmobile, but I know the unbranded ROM for whatever reason would not work. I can't remember exactly what the solution was, except that I believe I copy and pasted Verizon file name to the ATT/Tmobile one, and for whatever reason it let me use the Samsung tool to restore my device. I do remember specifically the universal one would not work no matter what I tried. Afterwards I was able to change carriers and also root the phone. (It probably wasn't that easy, I know it took me a few days and I even bricked my phone for a while)

If anyone knows of this and whether or not it would still work, please let me know.

Thanks

Edit: typo on model number
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
Smart Switch can sometimes be used but the standard method to perform a whole flash of Samsung firmware is with Odin. Heimdall can also be used. Neither can back up or restore user data.

Small error on the model number - yours is the T387V, Tab A 8.0 (2018)

Bootloader unlock is done locally on the device and does not involve flashing or remote commands. OEM Unlocking must be enabled in developer options, at which point the user would shut down the device and start it in download mode (hold both Volume buttions and plug in USB cable), then follow the prompts to enter device unlocking mode.

Typically, this cannot be done on US carrier variants; only US unlocked (U/U1) variants can be.

Also, don't forget that we have specific sections of the forum for many devices. As a courtesy, we will move this post to the correct one. In the meantime, please take a moment to review the Forum Rules, Forum Etiquette, and User Guide linked in my signature.
