Any screenshots?

Amazing, I'd prefer a custom ROM but any nougat is better than no nougat.
For those of us wanting to upgrade but also unlock bootloader, the best thing to do would be unlock then flash the Nougat ROM, correct?
Or will there be a Nougat bootloader unlock?

Updated today and already found few downsides:
- Fast charge is no longer triggered after this update (worked before. using stock cable and charged)
- Ram consumption has increased
- Security patch is only Dec 5, 2016, which is weird, cause ZE552KL got Jan 5, 2017 one.
- Can't roll back through recovery because it says that SKU's are different even though they're the same.

Think twice before updating.

I read the news, but I do not find the firmware on the website. Someone found him? Because it is not detected via OTA on my phone.

They haven't uploaded the rom to the website yet. Your phone won't detect OTA from within settings -> system update? Is your bootloader unlocked?

*** ZenFone 3 Special Edition - Android 7.0 Update - WARNING!!!! ***
I have the ZenFone 3 Deluxe Special Edition that's maxed out with 256GB internal storage + 6 GB of RAM, and the 821 Snapdragon processor. I received the Android 7.0 update last night (turned my phone on and it was there waiting to be installed.) Post update, many of my Google-related apps aren't working (1) a completely blank screen or (2) a blank screen with a wait/loading symbol. In both cases, I eventually get the "this app is not responding...wait?" pop-up. Waiting does nothing. I have to kill the apps. I've tried clearing the data/cache for the apps, but that doesn't work.
So far, apps that don't work:
Gmail - Wait screen forever (Overnight)
Google Play - Wait screen (also forever/overnight)
Microsoft Outlook - Loads, but cannot see actual mail - just a blank area where it should be.
Looks like it's related to Google services oriented apps only. All other apps, aside from Speedtest.net, appear to be working correctly.
What I've tested that works:
Amazon - Whole suite of apps (photos, Kindle, store, underground, etc.)
Facebook
Flipboard
GoodReads
I'll post an update if/when I get the issues resolved.

I was able to fix the problem by resetting the cache/managed data in the Google Play Services app.
To do this, go to settings, then Apps. From the drop-down menu, select "Show System". Find the Google Play Services entry. Click on the "Storage" item, clear the cache, then, in "Manage Space", click the "Clear all data" button.
Once I did this, everything started working correctly.

How did you know the update is only for 820?

i'm going to stay away from this update for now, because even though 7.0 is much better, but it seems there is still problems to be looked at, once that has changed , then we can move on, however we need some custom roms on this... at least one or two that can make this much better.

FW for WW SKU for both pro and non-pro variants is available to download
2.15 Ghz (Non-pro)

Download the correct FW for your phone variant - 2.15 Ghz or 2.4 Ghz
Copy it to the root of your SD card
Turn off your phone
Enter recovery (hold power + volume down until phone vibrates. if you get no command screen, hold power + volume up and recovery will appear)
Select "Apply an update from SD card"
There, select FW file you downloaded (volume up/down to navigate, power to confirm)
After few minutes, you should be done
Select "reboot system now"

it doesn't say PRO on the CPU type.. it just says 8996... 821 is 8996 PRO

More people have the issue of the fast charging feature not working? I still didn't install it, and the QC is a pretty big deal for me...

Mini M8S TV Box Review - Amlogic S905, 2GB Ram, Android 5.1

The Mini M8S TV Box is a new budget box running Android 5.1 with the Amlogic S905 and 2GB of Ram.
Review:
Mod Edit: Link leading to affiliate sales links removed
Hello,
it coming with root or how it can be rooted?
Thank you.
The Mini M8S is very intriguing. SD card, Bluetooth, and 2 GB RAM. Just need to find it from a reputable retailer online, since I'm probably going to stay away from Gearbest. Would like to know if this box can be wiped and installed with a vanilla Android OS. Would like to start from scratch and not be running any of their pre-installed junk.
Also kind of a bummer this doesn't do 5G wifi. I would think that all the newer boxes would include it. It's got everything else I'm looking for in a budget Kodi box.

According to the review, it's already rooted. I think the question is whether or not it can be flashed with a different ROM. Hopefully there's a guide out soon. Would love to get vanilla Android on it. (just ordered one off Gearbest)

Question:
Is this unlocked i.e rooted? I came across many apps that say not supported by this device in the play store. Is this where I should or could side load them by merely downloading the .apk myself ?
Reply::
Hello Brown,
Thank you for your inquiry,it is unlocked but not rooted.You can download the app in the media center like kodi.Have a nice day.
Got mine yesterday from gearbest. It was rooted and I must say I'm very impressed. Very fast and played everything I've tried with no buffering and perfect picture. Very happy

It's powered up as soon as I plugged in the cable
Hello, I also I got one. Well done, compact, without lags. The device is root. Only small usb ports and little available RAM. I personally use a Nova launcher and combined small keyboard with touch.
Best Regards.
(Google translate)
Hi to all. Does anyone know how to reflash the rom in case we need to do so? The device is rooted. A bad apk may cause harm. Where can we find the rom to reflash if this happens?
I've also got e of these but is giving me problems with failed updates and random reboots. Could do with reflashing to see if this solves the problem but I have no idea as to where to get the files from for this device. Anyone know?
Or is there a different firmware I can try?
Cheers

Question:
Where can I download firmware updates?
Reply::
Hello Bryan,
Please kindly send us e-mail to http://www.gearbest.com/about/contact-us.html. Then we will contact our supplier to ask for the update firmware.
This box is very nice, here are some details:
There is a small hole underneath for the reset button; you can use a toothpick to hold the button while you insert the power. This will give you access to recovery.
Looking at traffic flow I can see it connects to fota4.adups.cn to determine if there is a new update and downloads the updates from: hwfotadown.mayitek.com
Here is the latest patch as of this writing:
http://hwfotadown.mayitek.com/ota/r...04011829-LMY47V-2016041117331460428050687.zip
At this time I am unable to find a full firmware IMG file that I could use with the "USB Burning Tool" (The ultimate recovery, if things go bad)
For me there is no OTA update (says i have the latest), device comes with firmware from 28 of March, It is working fine though.
I installed Selinux mode changer to make Selinux permissive and after reboot the device was unresponsive. I tried the reset procedure as described by tpcip6 above and after a factory restore the device restored the rom perfectly. All apps were there despite the fact that i had uninstalled a couple of them. I was surprised. How could this happen? Is there a hidden recovery partition or something? Anyway i was happy that the box was fully functional again.

I'm getting the same problem. Other people have mentioned that there's an update by my OTA is saying it's up to date even though i have the March version. Even the screenshots from @fireman_vt show an April update.
Thanks to @tcpip6 i've downloaded the new update.
Also, i'm having an issue with Kodi and SPMC where any 5.1 file i play with passthrough enabled causes audio drops every few seconds (i'm using HDMI). Hopefully the updated can help with this issue.

I am still at work so haven't had a chance. I hope it's as simple as booting into recovery and flashing? Will try an OTA just before in case.

Dont think you need recovery, just copy the file to root of sdcard and then in the update app choose offline.
Maybe they removed the update because of issues like the disappearing of google play store?

I'd installed the ROM on my XT1622 (German, Single-SIM) using Method 2 without no problems yet.
Work for my moto g4 xt1621 dual sim
Hi there,
I have a XT1626. My software version is Android 6.0.1/MPJ24.139-50. Does I really need to have the Android 6.0.1/MPJ24.139-63/64 version, or the version I have will work? Have anyone tried yet?
Thanks.

Hi siredux,
Understood. Thanks for your reply!
Method 2 has worked on UK dual SIM XT1622. Battery life appears much better than soak test.
Does this not change the version in "Settings/Hardware Information" from p2a to PVTB ? being the Indian version i guess.
If it does its not EU/UK ota .

Hi,
I updated my Moto G4 to Nougat last week. Everything was fine. Yesterday there was some 114 mb ota update. I downloaded it and since then I am facing two issues-
1. Whenever I lock the screen using the power/lock button on the side, the screens becomes black and white for a millisecond and then it gets locked. I haven't seen any other phone's screen becoming black and white for a tad and then lock. Is everyone experiencing the same?
2. The battery is draining just way too fast. 40% depletion since morning. I only used the phone to make two 4 minutes phonecalls. I did not install any new app or game. Any troubleshooting for this?
This is the build number etc.-

the pic does show Athene INDIA, which version do you have? Xt1622 with euro one? How did you get the update? If it came from ota, I might need to reflash my xt1622 to factory from for receiving it? I postponed the updates info a couple of times for a long time as waiting for the 7.0 version

Firmware Finder - anyone successful in manually updating?

Hey guys.
Reaching out to see if any has been able to use the Firmware Finder app to update the firmware? Currently I'm on 108 however can download 122 via the app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teammt.gmanrainy.huaweifirmwarefinder
Now is does say its incompatible at first however you can indeed download either the latest OTA or full firmware, but seemingly can't get the device to acknowledge it. Things I've tried:
- Using the VPN and DNS options in firmware finder, then checking for system updates
- Putting the downloaded OTA zip in a created folder on internal storage called DLOAD, rebooting to recovery, but nothing happens.
- Tried extracting all the contents of the zip into that folder, again recovery doesn't acknowledge it.
It'd be great if we could perform manual updates like this, though annoying if the best we could do is merely download it!
Anyone any suggestions?
Let's see if we can get this working...
*update - seems I was entering recovery (power off and then power on holding power button + volume up) where I should have gone to download mode (hold both volume up and down). It gets to a screen but says Installation Failed. That's with the zip directly in the DLOAD folder and then sigh the contents extracted....
I used to use this app on my Honor 9 Lite, however it hasn't worked for a long time.
The method they used was to spoof the Huawei servers using DNS etc to trigger an OTA but Huawei changed the server location.
This app purely exists now to tell you there is an update available to download, however you'll need to use other methods to get it installed, which probably requires an unlocked bootloader at the very least, then a firmware flash tool.

Apparently not, or at least the developer of that App doesn't seem to think so.
I am also looking to update to the latest firmware too, it has been pushed out to some devices, but nothing for me yet. Although I did get a 3 branded update, I'm hoping that hasn't messed up my OTA's from Huawei

See I was on Three but moving over to O2. When I first set the phone up, I used the O2 sim but then put my Three sim in and will use until my number gets transferred over. Ive no Three branding yet

That's similar to what I did, put my old Tesco(O2) sim in slot 1 - No branding. The next day I also put my 3 sim into slot 2, after a few minutes an OTA pops up.
Checked on here a a few people said it's safe to install, it just activates Wi-Fi calling & the 3 apps.
After reboot it had also installed a 3 splash screen & changed my chrome homepage to the 3 website.
Minor annoyances yes, apparently fixed by a Factory reset. I just hope the change in software version doesn't delay future updates. Hopefully this 122 update pushes out soon.

Cool yeah well I'm on Three network but yet to be branded, but still haven't received an update so likely the branding isn't a cause, perhaps...

Oppo Find X problems

I own an OPPO find X PAFM00 and I love the phone, it is super fast, the battery is reasonable gives for
normal day use, the screen was the biggest factor of the purchase of this mobile phone, but my version
has some problems that it seems that does not happen with the users of this site.
Apart from the "normal" problem of the applications closing completely and not receiving notifications,
due to the battery management of this phone and after all possible and imaginable attempts described
in this site as workaround, were unsuccessful and this version of me has some problems that I think
they do not happen to other users, at least to my knowledge.
I'm going to list all my problems found so far:
• Rom version: PAFM00_11_D.01 _ *** (Image 1 and 2 in appendix) This version has no information
about it, neither on the mobile phone itself nor on Google;
• This rom never received updates, nor with VPN's of Taiwan for example;
• Inability to install apk "In_depth_test" (Image 3 attached);
• Impossibility to Update ColorOS version 5.2.1 (Image 4 attached);
• Recovery mode does not work: Vol - and Power button.
• Phone name in OPPO ID as "OPPO Reno 10 ***"; (Picture 5 attached).
I would like to know if anyone has any of these issues mentioned here and if it is possible to upgrade to
a more upgraded version such as the ROM 300 A.30.
Hi since downloading latest update my phone does not open attachments from email. It just comes up with a stupid cartoon cat that says oops..try again. Please any ideas?

How To Guide Android 12 update for EU version, all good

After waiting many months for an update for my OnePlus Nord 2 Europe (EUEX), I managed to easily get the Android 12 update. Shortly, I installed over my EU Android 11 (with A.21 version and June patch security) the Indian firmware C.09 with September patch.
Phone is not rooted, bootloader is locked and has the orriginal recovery.
So in OxygenUpdater I selected India and full rom, instead of EU. After download, I shut down the phone, then by pressing Power and Volume down I entered recovery. I selected the desired language, then Local install and the firmware which is a file with long alphanumeric name. The full update takes no more than 5 minutes.
No data is deleted, the apps and the settings are there.
Greetings and credits to @asotmike who helped me.
Interface is buttery smooth, no lags, no bugs after 6 hours of playing with the phone. All functions work ok, Vowifi, Volte and 5g working fine in Romania.
For now, I don't know if there is an easy way to return to Europe version, without using MSM tools and losing data, so please everyone think well if you take the risk of making this movement.
Can you enter fastbootd and BROM mode?
Updating to EU ROM will be posible when / if OP releases full ROM > C.09 for DN2103.
Adb reboot fastboot works, it enters fastboot mode where it shows Format data, Reboot, Power off. In brom mode how can I enter, to test later? And I think you are right about moving back to Eu, only when a Eu build C.09 or newer is released
everything ok for me also. thanks to OP for this, finally we got android 12.
Thank you from Romania also ! A12 is something else ... It's OK for now .
Glad you like it guys! Hope to see many updates now for our great phone.

You confirm that fastbootd is not available anymore. The phone boots to recovery.
For testing BROM mode you need mtk client. To enter you need to switch off completely the phone, connect the USB cable to the PC only. Then connect this cable to the phone and immediately press and hold all 3 buttons ( vol+, vol-, power ). The device screen should remain completely black and mtk client should detect your phone and connect it. Once detected you can release all the buttons.
I suppose, as per other reports that BROM is disabled too, so no more easy custom ROM installation or servicing.
Thank you.
For recovery and fastboot there is a difference, but small.
If I use adb reboot recovery I get to select language and after there is a menu named Recovery with options Fromat data, Reboot device and Power off.
If I use adb reboot fastboot, I select language and after there is a menu named Fastboot but with the same options as in case of recovery.
I cannot test Brom because I have downloaded several versions of MTK client but none of them even starts on my computer...

Yes, install mtk client involves installing drivers, python, etc. It's a bit complicated. Unfortunately without fastbootd and BROM, one cannot customize the phone. If is ok with stock no matters.
Cheers.
I am very happy with this non-orriginal version. I found no problems yet, in 1 and half day. Should OnePlus start pouring with updates for EU, maybe I will return with a newer variant of DN2103. Else, adieu. Everything works fine, all apps, network bands work fine. Fast, smooth, no bugs, same great camera and performante, no sound problem. I will study further and play with it.
Unfortunately I found some small insignificant bugs like annoying slow connection to WiFi 6 , A11 was quite fast . Ambient display still don't work , picking wallpaper from Settings is blocked (I can set wallpaper only from particular 3.rd launcher apk . Percent battery is randomly shown despite it isn't set . Battery drain is bigger then A11 . Browsing is also slower . Fingerprint gave several errors and send me to PIN even I re-enroll new fingerprint , animation are ugly . Proximity sensor has also rare errors . More then that there are some stupid bloatware (maybe for Indian Market ). I didn't use for now Bluetooth , Android Auto , Portrait camera , and other complaints of indians users ... But overall A12 is working fine although I expect further EU version if it comes anymore !
Untill we have a proper EU version and a good update frequency for it, I am more than happy to stay with this version. We'll see if this happens, ever...
Yeah , right ... Am I pleased with A12 ? NO ! Should I go back to A11 ? NO... hahahahaha
thanks. it works also for me. Model name changed to DN2101 XD
tbh, i didn't find any bugs on IN version. 5G is working fine (Greece), wifi is the same fast as A11 (less than 1 sec.), bluetooth also ok. i can't compare the battery drain because i own the phone for less than a month but i think it's the same as before. if they decide to give EU version and update it regurarly maybe I will switch again, but I don't mind staying with the IN that updates every month. cheers!

They release primary for DN2101. When fixed the main bugs, OP made it available for the DN2103. So we can expect European releases will be more stables, but delayed...

the latest version they released for EU was C.01 and we weren't able to get the update, so I'm not really sure for that

They have weird schedule. C.01 is available for Spain since the first day released. Through system update or oxygen updater.

Thanks for confirming. There are various regions which got the C.08. My oxygen updater still shows C.01 as latest available.
