[Galaxy S II General] rennylovesboys:
Few days ago, I tried to root my S2 in multiple ways. It worked, until it didn't. Froze, so I removed the battery and put it back in, turned it on, only for it to hang on the "Galaxy S II" screen. Went into recovery and it had errors that said "Can't mount '/system' " and "Failed to mount '/cache' ". Tried to flash recovery, that failed horribly. Now it only boots into download mode or shows the battery loading icon. Odin barely works either, only recognizes it, but doesn't really do anything. Gets stuck at "cache.img". Could it still be fixable or is it now just a brick?
[Galaxy S II General] V0latyle:
Sounds like it's bricked. You could try repartitioning it using Odin but I don't know specifically how to do that, only that it's possible.
[Galaxy S II General] No_Location:
Maybe try another usb cable, diferent android version or pit files or another version of odin? I had bricked mutiple times from flashing the worng trwp mupliple times as i flashed the s2 trwp when i had to flash the i9100 one and i didn't knew at firtd, you should try diferent versions like 4.0.4 or 4.1.2 and diferents .pit files
[Touch HD General] Kurvenal:
Is anyone else interested in seeing battery usage stats for individual apps? If so, I was wondering if it might be possible to devise a way for readers of this forum to submit data on their battery draw in a controlled manner so that reliable statistics on battery usage for individual apps can be developed. If each person could record pre-install and post-install usage figures based on an agreed measurement standard for a particular app then maybe this data could be added to the Software Wiki (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Software)?
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] zewzeq:
I am still using my old 6T McLaren edition. I had no issues until now. I am on stock rom, never ever rooted or installed any modified os.

So today I realize the screen is unresponsive. Only the fingerprint showed on the bottom of the screen for 1 second then screen would go dark again. Now this phone very occasionally crashes so I tried rebooting by holding down the power botton as usual but this basically did nothing. Then after me touching the screen trying to get a response, the screen started looking like in the attached photo.

The phone looks like it is working. I connected to my computer and could access the files. I asked my husband to call me and the phone did ring but I could not reply as the screen was dark and unresponsive. I rebooted using Power + Volume up button and it restarted the phone but the screen is now completely dark and since I restarted I cannot access my files anymore but the pc sees and recognizes it as OnePlus. When I touch the screen, it vibrates. I can reboot using Power + Volume up button but it will not reboot by only holding down the Power button.

Now I think this is most likely due to display failure but it seems strange that it looked like a normal os freeze just before this happened + holding down the power button will not reboot the phone. Also how can a display failure happen out of of the blue like this? I had just sent someone a Whatsapp message 5 minutes prior to this. 5 minutes later display failure?

So what do you think? I cannot buy a new phone just right now due to money issues but willing to replace the screen if this is the issue.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] ze7zez:
amoled green death screen

Repair is rather unprofitable.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] zewzeq:
Thank you. The display got much worse now, it occasionally lights up but it is all blue with a lot of black liquidy parts. I ordered a new display hoping it will work. I live in a country where phones have like 100% tax on them so buying a mid range phone will cost me like 900-1000$ at least (our government has an imei block in place so buying overseas is also not an option) so replacing with a $50 display is worth trying.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] chazychez:
I've the similar problems... But I abled to unlock the screenn.. When unlocked the display was good until a new lock/unlock...

The workaround is disable the fingerprint and the phone works again
[Nova Launcher] johnnyzero2:
The page indicators on my home screen have always been white, but after installing the latest beta 8.0.13 they changed to a different color. Any idea how I can change them back to white? I can't find any setting for this. Thanks.
[Nova Launcher] johnnyzero2:
Found it: Nova Settings -> Style -> Home Screen -> Accent

Not very intuitive to label this color setting "Accent". Also, to (re)set it to White, you have to manually enter a custom color hex value of #ffffff. White should be offered as a preset.

The latest beta included a complete revamp of the Nova Settings UI, so I assume it's a work in progress and they will improve it.

I'm using it to monitor the home, especially the power consumption of the house along with costs, statistics of temperature or for safety like fire detection and to shutdown things which I may forget when I'm away(like the 3d printer, TV, charger etc.) not to automate my life with robots or something 😉

[Smart Home Development / Internet of things (IoT)] Stephen:
@strongst has got me into home assistant as well. Currently I was using Smart Life app and Alexa. While smart life app is rock solid, the alexa skill breaks every once in a while and I have to set it up again.

I am still using Smart Life, but now piping that into Home assistant, then into Alexa. I have 6 4 extension gangs, 4 spotlights, 2 bulbs. Also got my two sky boxes, TV's and my hive heating system all setup. Really only properly started using it today, but liking it so far. At some point, I might swap over to Zigbee. Still messing around with dashboards and stuff too!

I hope you have insurance. That is more important.
[Smart Home Development / Internet of things (IoT)] strongst:
This is off topic but... Of course, but when the house burned down, it's too late, no insurance can replace everything. Smart connected fire detection with alerting to you smart phone is the better way compared to an insurance.
[Smart Home Development / Internet of things (IoT)] TheMystic:
I mentioned it because he spoke of fire safety.

It is good to have alert systems in place. But insurance is completely different. They are mutually exclusive.

Now I have got Home Assistant setup the way I want, I want to get rid of my Tuya devices completely. I have just ordered a Raspberry Pi 5, Sonoff zigbee dongle, 5 extension gangs, 2 plugs,4 lights! Home Assistant is working really well for me. I am looking forward to getting it all running locally.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] QJOTech_Real:
Hello Evreyone,

so I want to downgrade my s23u because it is kinda slow and i dont really like the skin and the look of oneui 6. (i almost dont use the fetures of one ui 6)

If it doesent void warranty how do i backup my data on the phone?

Thank You!

QJOTech
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] V0latyle:
No. Flashing factory firmware, even if it's an older version, will not trip Knox.

However, you cannot downgrade to a lower binary version.

Modified firmware on the other hand will trip Knox permanently.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] QJOTech_Real:
my bianary is supported stil bc i did not update
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] nguyenlucky:
Then go ahead, back up your data before downgrading.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Brava27:
I don't recommend it. Factory reset or find the app that's causing trouble. Downgrading won't fix anything tbh.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Beefheart:
Well, not quite. I downgraded from January's BWL3 yesterday because of its well documented, utterly abysmal battery life. And now on BWLC from December the phone is back to what I was getting previously.

There isn't always a call for a downgrade and often fixes for issues can be found, but saying it won't fix anything isn't true.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Brava27:
So you're saying BWL3 has terrible battery life? Hmmm. I haven't noticed it.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Beefheart:
Yup, a lot of people have been talking about it both on here and elsewhere.

For the first time since I got the phone in October, I was having to do a 10-15 minutes top up charge in the evenings to make it through a day.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Brava27:
Actually I lied. I have noticed bad battery life. Dammit. Now that you mention it. I didn't think it could be the firmware. I'll keep it until they bring a new one out.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] QJOTech_Real:
thank you for the help evreyone but still how do i backup data?

[Samsung Galaxy S24+] chillsen:
FYI, I bought one of those real Aramid carbon fiber 600D slim cases and for the first few days was in love with them because it was the thinnest slimmest case I ever had. It had nice grip and great style. But unfortunately my US pre-order for the S24+ came with a wireless fast charger and immediately would blink red when I put it on. I thought it was the charger so I switched it still had issues. didn't work on an older wireless charger as well.

I switched to a clear TPU case and even though it was 2x thicker, it charged right away at 12-14 watts (15 watts is considered fast wireless charging). So just heads up, those Aramid carbon fiber cases are perfect except the material density keeps from wireless charging if you plan to do that regularly like I do.

ITS DEAD i can't even access ADB, or anything, windows refuses to assign it a COM port and displays it as QUSB_BULK_SN:9633E12A.

I bought it from some random vendor selling hacked xiaomi devices and I bought the pad. A while later I decided to install Magisk onto this thing (because it was already bootloader unlocked) but it exploded during the installation, and now I can't boot anything. not even bootloader.

do i need to open the lid up and short the 2 pins to enter EDL?

I've senn a lot of discussion about the XT2131-1, but haven't seen one for the XT2131DL. And I'm really hoping to see positive news. Is it possible to root from steps 1 to done without a pc?

Oem option is not grayed out

Is running android 12

What about using a second phone (also not root) and an otg cord, is it possible this way?

What if we throw termux into the equation?

What about the DSU loader? Any way something useful can be loaded onto that giving root access..

Looking for anything lol

Hi,

I want to run the Poweramp equalizer app on my Oppo Find X5. By default it didn't affect the sound at all and didn't find any known players. What should fix the issue is Advanced player tracking, which requires Notification listener permission (successfully granted) and a DUMP permission, which I had no success trying to grant. I downloaded SDK platform tools on my Windows 11 laptop, connected to the phone and enabled usb debugging. The command "adb devices" does successfully show my device. Though the command "adb shell pm grant com.maxmpz.equalizer android.permission.DUMP", which should grant the DUMP permission doesn't execute properly, showing this:

I did try the known method of disabling the "Disable permission monitoring" tab in the developer's settings on the phone, getting the same result with it both on and off.

when i say wake i mean power on and not just from sleep.

If it is one time, then you can try calling your phone from another number. It will wake up your phone. Then you try different things.

1. Power prepare: Plug the charging cable adapter into the socket.

2. Long-press the "volume + key" and "volume - key" on your phone at the same time (Some are long-press "volume + key" or "volume - key").

3. Plug the charging cable to your phone and wait about 20s.

I am trying to run dual sims where one SIM is data and the other is for phone and text. I can only choose one active sim and it selects it for all of the 3. How can I utilize both SIMs how I want to? has anyone tried to side load the SIM manager from the other regions to see if it works?
[Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra] 0rigin:
You need to have access point names for both sims set up separately, even if they're on the same network
[Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra] cabagekiller:
they both have their own APNs but what I want to do is have SIM 1 for data but SIM 2 for all calls/texts if that makes sense. Like I can do on the pixel or my Oneplus 11
[Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra] power_book:
Unfortunately, not possible with Samsung sim manager. First Sim is active for data. Both sim are active for call and text. you have to choose which sim to use for call and text in "phone" and "message" apps for each call or text. If you use Google Phone app, you can choose specific SIM for all calls.

This screenshot is from Samsung S22 Ultra. I don't know why it is not possible on his phone. May be this is a problem with his SIM service provider.

From My understanding, it's the US S24 series that has this issue. And they are not quick to find a solution nor helpful when I went to support for the issue.

Have you tried using SIM from other service providers? I don't think this is Samsung issue, unless you bought a carrier locked phone.

[Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra] hyelton:
US Models never had this. Not really an issue just a missing feature from US phones. You'd have to get a non US model for this.
[Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra] omek07:
There is no way to do it . Only Europian Versions have to options to choose the data , text and Call separately
[Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra] TheMystic:
Which means one has to choose the data sim as the primary sim and then change the settings for calls and text from within the dialer/ messaging app.

Another implementation that is meaningless and super annoying for the user.
[Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra] cabagekiller:
that is so dumb. they stripped out a feature in stock android for their **** implementation...
[Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra] OnnoJ:
It is probably due to US-regulations or demands of US-providers....
[Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra] nguyenlucky:
US/Canada has that botched SIM manager. You need to import the global S928B/DS version for the normal SIM manager (no band 71 tho).

Or get the Oneplus 12 with dual physcial SIM + eSIM, normal SIM manager and band 71.
[Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra] cabagekiller:
Yeah I was hoping there was a way to install the global versions of SIM manager onto the US version somehow. I already have a OP11 so I didn't feel like upgrading to the 12. Lol
[Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra] nguyenlucky:
The botched SIM manager has been that way since Tmobile Note 20 got the dual SIM update. I don't think anyone can fix that soon.
[Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra] JeffATL:
This is false. You used to be able to access a menu in settings in older versions in One UI. In recent versions Samsung hid the menu but it was accessible by Samsung Band Selection app or by using an activity launcher. In One UI 6 they completely killed it. If you change disable CIDManager and change CSC to GCF you get them all as toggles in the pull down menu - however this screwed up my ability to receive video messages with Verizon based MVNO - if I enable CIDManager and let the phone selecting Verizon as my main carrier video messaging works
[Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra] JeffATL:
@cabagekiller what providers are you using ? GCF csc might work for you but you need to disable CIDManager to prevent the reboot which reverts old sim. I used SAMFW to change CSC
