Issues installing RemixOS 3...

I have been trying to install RemixOS 3 on my Intel Cherry Trail tablet, but it is not going well. (Note: Tablet is a Teclast X16 Power, which has an X8700 CPU, and uses the standard Cherry Trail chipset for almost all features.)

First issue is that the RemixOS installer seems to only want to create a boot menu entry in the BCD for Remix OS if there is only 1 other entry in it. (I have tried installing it on a few Windows systems, and if there is already more than 1 BCD entry, the installer doesn't seem to create one.) In the case of Windows 10 (which is currently on my Cherry Trail tablet), Windows creates multiple boot menu entries (regular boot, debug/safe mode, recovery, ...) during it's install process, so there will always be more than 1.

I finally tried using a BCD editor to remove all entries except the standard boot, and I did get the Remix OS installer to create an entry. Even then, it seemed to corrupt the BCD so that the Metro style touchscreen menu did not work (only text mode), and I had to do a Windows recovery operation to get it to boot again.

When I did get the Tablet to boot, the Wifi didn't wok. (This seemed strange because the tablet uses a RealTec RTL8723BS chip for wireless LAN, and the RealTec LAN chips are pretty standard in PCs these days. ) Because I couldn't get the tablet to connect to my network, I wasnt able to try many of the other features.

NOTE: I was able to get RemixOS 3 to install on my Dell XPS12 Ultrabook PC/Tablet. That system is running Windows 8.1 (instead of Windows 10), and most of the RemixOS features seemed to work OK (including Wifi). I did miss the fact that RemixOS doesn't seem to support screen rotation (like other Android ROMs), and the RemixOS also doesn't support home screen widgets. (That seems like a big over-sight to me.)

I am a big fan of Android, and I do like the general direction that the RemixOS development is going in. I would suggest that the development team work on adding support for screen rotation, and widgets. I also think it would be great if they worked on a start menu that is somewhat more like the Windows 10 style start menu that PheonixOS came up with. All-in-all... good stuff. I just think they have a little bit further to go on the development.

Phone battery issues with Gear Fit 2

I recently got one of these, and had a couple questions related to battery life.

My phone is a OnePlus One running the latest COS 13.0.1 build (S254) and better life on the phone is significantly degraded since installing the Gear Fit Manager and S Health apps. I have the band set to only sync with S Health manually, and had generally been keeping the band connected via Bluetooth. I have a feeling the always connected via BT is what's killing my phone battery, but was curious as to what others are doing? Do you keep you band connected via BT or do you just rely on the Remote Wi-Fi connectivity? It appears that it only syncs with S Health via BT, so does anyone just connect it via BT once or twice a day to sync and leave it on Wi-Fi the rest of the time?

Just curious for any tips to save the battery on my phone. Battery life on the Fit2 itself has been pretty good so far, lasting a couple of days per charge which certainly meets my needs.

Any thoughts or tips would be appreciated!

Will "adopting" my SD card as internal storage cause issues installing roms?

I am currently running a custom rom and am constantly running out of space on my Moto X Pure 16GB, even though I don't have that many apps installed. If I adopt my SD card as internal storage, will this prevent me from installing new roms in the future, or make it difficult/impossible? I can't really find any information on how the process would be different.

[Q] Cellular service issues after broken display - Please advice?

Hi everyone.

Please help if you have any advice :(

I dropped my laptop on my OPO and I broke both displays (both OPO and laptop).

This sucks bad because I can barely afford to fix one, let alone two.

I did fix the OPO and - this is weird - I am getting service issues.

I went back to the repair guy (really nice person), and he opened the OPO in front of me and showed me that the antenna is well connected so no issue there.

The issue is very odd: I do get to register my sim on the network (or at least it does show my carrier) but my reception is barely there.

Now I know the OPO has issues showing signal bar (right?) but in any case my signal bar always shows no signal.

I resetted everything and even went back to stock OxygenOS firmware (I think).

Getting barely any service. Tried a different SIM - same problem.

google play music pausing when screen turns off, and other issues

I'm using stock marshmellow from lg. google play music pauses the song when the screen turns off. usually between 30 seconds and 2 minutes after the screen turns off. I'm not exactly sure if it pauses the song or the audio just cuts off. I've added google play music to ignore battery optimizations and that didn't help.

another issue I'm having is after I reboot the phone, play music doesn't detect my songs. the sd card is mounted but there is no music in play music. sometimes remounting the sd card doesn't work and I have to reboot. also, after rebooting, my playlist is empty.

lots of phone issues

I am getting lots of problems with my phone. I recently bumped by Nexus 6p to the beta releases, and noticed apps and the OS/phone as a whole, crashing and restarting. This happens randomly sometimes. I will have Maps open, and Maps closes, and asks me if I want to re-launch it. I do, and within minutes sometimes it force closes again. And when I go to view other apps I have open while I have maps open, and switch to it, or begin to use another app, I also run into issues (apps/phone crashing). I also get, upon reboot sometimes, an error message saying my phone is corrupt. I also will be running a app like Maps, and I once got about 10-12 pop-ups telling me that these apps needed to force close, and asked even if I wanted to restart, even though I don't recall launching some of them (must have been running in the background).
Would a factory reset work, or should I go back to the stable rom, or should I root, or do I need to rma this? I am trying to switch to another rom, and looking at unlocking my phone, but can't copy my files to my desktop (Windows 10): "Calculating the time required to copy the files". It stays at this for a while. Then it begins to copy, and after a short while, I get a pop-up saying "Error Copying Files or Folder" "Unspecified error". Any ideas on where to go from here?

Data working but streaming services like YouTube and Pandora having issues.

Verizon Note 3 N900v on StraightTalk

The issue I'm having is slightly odd, data works fine the majority of the time but streaming stuff such as YouTube videos and Pandora songs won't work most of the time. Also sometimes data doesn't work at all and I have to turn data off and then back on a few times to get it working again. Right now Pandora works but still having issues with YouTube. Everything is working fine on my wife's OnePlus One and she's on ST as well, so I don't believe it to be a carrier issue. Has anyone else had this issue and is there a fix or potential solution?

Issues with network & GPS

I just bought an unlocked version from HTC. Out of the box I noticed that the network stops working after restarting or randomly, prompting another restart to fix it.

Also, the GPS seems to have problems locating properly. Navigation kept rerouting over and over on any given day.

Factory reset seems to have helped a little but I had an issue with the network this morning, which was fixed after restarting. GPS has issues in Pokemon GO now, which could be app specific but no navigation issues now.

Is this common for a brand new phone? Kinda disappointed.

HTC M9 (Canada) softbrick then baseband issues while trying to root

So I was trying to root my phone. I unlocked the bootloader from HTCdev and managed to install TWRP. I selected the read and write option though I think that may have been a mistake reading some of the posts on this forum.

Anyways the next step was flashing superuser unfortunately I flashed the latest version however apparently only till 2.64 works. This caused a bootloop. As I had no ideas, I wiped my phone and installed CM13. Now my phone boots up and runs perfectly and I can install other ROMs too but one critical error is that my phone doesn't recognize my sim card. It says baseband is unknown and IMEI number field is blank if I check using the dialer. My phone is S-ON.

This seems to be a common error around this forum but I can't find a solution which helps me.

Most people suggest flashing the stock rom but since my phone is S-ON I can only flash the Canadian videotron version which I can't find anywhere. I found nandroid twrp backup here in the following link but I don't know what to do with it. I put it on my phone but obviously I can't flash it nor does TWRP automatically find it to restore it. Do I have to flash it from my computer somehow like ODIN is used for Samsung(?) phones ?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

GPS issues after MM update on 5x

Currently running CM 13.0-20150726 but also tried under stock MM 6.0.1 (TWRP)
No matter what I do i can't get google maps to work consistently with GPS. Appeared to be working before flashing the stock update from lollipop to mm. Waze works fine.

Did some searching and it appears several others are having the same issues

For those with fingerprint and battery issues on custom roms.

So some newer devices have been shipped with different components from the older ones and while everything works fine on recent miui versions, most custom roms have issues. So I'm creating this thread to document all the issues caused by these new components and any solutions to them in one thread. Please reply if you have any other issues caused by the new hardware or any solutions to them.

Fingerprint

Description:

• Option to add fingerprints doesn't appear even after setting pin, pattern or password on non miui based roms.

Cause:
Some devices have a new fingerprint sensor manufactured by Goodix which is not yet supported by non miui based roms.

Solutions:

• miui and any miui based roms such as xiaomi.eu should still work fine.


• Wait for CM to add support for the new hardware to its source code.

Battery

Description:

• Battery is stuck at either -2% or 50%.


• TWRP does not show battery percentage at all or constantly shows 50%.

Cause:
Possibly new battery controller hardware or an issue in the CM code which causes this issue on most newer roms.

Solutions:

• miui and other miui based roms such as xiaomi.eu should be fine.


• Mokee works fine.


• Unofficial Ressurrection Remix works fine up until the 06/08 build.

If you know of any other issues caused by newer hardware or solutions please tell me so that I can add it to this thread.

T-Mobile Stylo issues

Hello I have an issue. I soft bricked my phone and installed a kdz with lg up to fix. Now my phone's rebooting for no reason at no set interval and services stop randomly. Everything else functions well. But I would like to try again I think I used improper kdz file. I have a LG G Stylo T-Mobile but there are 3 options I don't know what one I should use.

Issues with Mobile Data

I have an Unlocked HTC 10 that I bought directly from HTC. Sometime, when I try to send a text and I'm on Wifi, whether I have a connection to my mobile data or not, the attempt is an automatic failure, even if I try to resend. If I turn off wifi, it won't enable my data connection, even if I turn it off then back on. It forces me to toggle airplane mode on then off If I want to send a text or browse the web. Also, to make things worse, the issue is completely random. I have no idea that it has happened until I try to send a text. TBH, I'm not even sure if wifi is part of the problem, like maybe it is disconnecting from Mobile Data regardless. If it matters, my carrier is T-Mobile.

Keep in mind, I have wifi calling disabled because it was more trouble than it was worth. But for some reason, the phone won't switch to data without my intervention. If I go out of range of the wifi, it will switch, but not all of the time.

Like right now, under my connection settings, Mobile Data says "Disconnected" even though it is turned on. When I just toggled Airplane Mode like I stated above, the connection was established immediately.

Why is the phone not connecting to the Mobile Network automatically? It seems like common sense when it comes to smart phones nowadays and is really annoying when I send a text, only to find out 30 minutes later, it didn't even try.

[Help] Some Remix 403 issues

Hi guys,

Do you have any idea how to make Remix 403 detect my music folders again? I have two favorite players, JetAudio and JustMusic. Both had been working properly with build 402. However, after I have upgraded, it won't detect music even if I already set the folders.

Another issue I have is with Photoshop Express - clicking Gallery button won't open the Gallery app.

Thank you.

Screen issues

Hey guys, I would appreciate your help.
I suddenly started having a weird issue with my device (EU unlocked), where almost half of the lower screen has some sort of "shadow" and it flickers when it draws something new i.e opening an app.
For some reason it also carries to bootloader, recovery, and boot animations.
Direct screenshots don't show the issue on the picture.

Edit:
Just to clarify - I never dropped my phone and it never got wet. I was watching live TV when the issue suddenly appeared.
I will try to take a picture of the issue.
