I upgraded to Windows 10 from Windows 7 the day former was released for general public.
It worked fine for two days but now I'm facing a major bug.
Whenever I login to my account, a dialog box says "Start Menu and Cortana aren't working. We'll try to fix it the next time you sign in."
Now I can't multitask neither can I use Cortana. Even I'm unable to switch between apps through taskbar.
Any help would be appreciated.

Update: It's fixed now.
I booted into safe mood, used it for a while and then booted normally.
Ah, the mysterious art of Turning It Off and On Again, combined with a particular case of Save Mod.
Windows self-healing capabilities never cease to amaze me
anyway, glad that worked! :laugh:

Hello Guys.
Can I use cortana with Greek language?
Στάλθηκε από το SM-G900F μου χρησιμοποιώντας Tapatalk
permanent fix is here
umm this is the most common error of windows 10, almost every user is facing start menu and cortana issues. To get rid of this error, you have to restore all the factory settings. To do so you can use a command in a power shell or using a pre created registry file. head over to kickiteasy you will find the perfect solution. Cheers!
If It helped you, Please hit THANKS

Is there a way to disable touch to wake on my LG G Watch R?
I like to cross my arms and when wearing a t-shirt it constantly wakes the screen.
I want to avoid Theatre Mode as I want to be able to glance at the screen and see the time.
Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

I am also searching for this:good:
I've been looking everywhere for a solution to this. I hasn't even considered it as an issue, but just a couple of days is enough to make me realise this is a requirement. I can't believe it didn't come up in development! Aside from your own accidental touches, there's also the issue of inquisitive fingers from children touching that nice shiny screen... Tapping the side button to wake the screen would be perfect (whilst retaining the monochrome screen and notifications).
Cinema mode is really dumb. Just very poorly thought out. There has got to be a way to disable touch to wake. Or even enable vibrating notifications in cinema mode.
Yes there is a way
First you have to install twrp on your watch. Because you need the acces to some files. When you have installed, start in recovery mode, and go to mount and press system. Connect your watch to your computer and open adb,
adb root
adb push /system/usr/idc/sec_touchscreen.idc <choose where you want to have the file in your pc>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Make a copy of the file, and open it with notepad++ or other file editor. YOU will se a think like this

So remove the part of ( touch.wake = 1 ) and save (make first a copy of the file), Go to adb

Restat the watch and you will se that the screen is not goin to turn off, pressing the button of your watch. Restart other time the watch and go to recovery.
With the copy of the file, mount other time system on twrp and go to adb

Restart the watch other time. This work for my, but i am using an alpha for gear 2 neo with android, so probably this might be a bug.

Yep you can use it to wake up the device. But as I say, make a backup because this happen with my alpha of the gear 2 neo, so probably this is not going to work with other devices. Just in case xD
Works for me on LG G Watch R
The file name is different "synaptics_rmi4_i2c.idc"
Same edit, copied to sdcard and moved in recovery to /system/usr/idc/ as mentioned above.
I have swipe menu still available and I can swipe down for the quick toggles.
Button is used to wake (and I use screen always on)
Going to be interesting how this performs in the shower and in general. Thanks to the suggestion posted.
Any update on this after using it for a while? Looking to apply this to my LG G watch R running the Urbane port.
Ok well i tried it any ways and i still have the problem when my arms are crossed my arm starts doing things on my watch...
Starting from version 1.6 this app supports wake on touch changing - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sssemil.advancedsettings (here is apk - View attachment AdvancedSettings-v1.6-11.apk)
I downloaded the advanced settings app tried the disable touch wake... it doesn't wake but you can still scroll notifications and long press to change the face.
Any chance of completely turning off the touch screen while in sleep...

I tried the Advanced Settings app on my LG Watch Urbane 2nd Edition with Android 6.0.1, which is not rooted. It has an option for "Touch to wake screen" that I tried to set to "off"; however, when I go back to look at it, it is always set to "on". Do I need to root to have this stay, or is the app just not compatible with 6.0.1?
Update... just answered my own question. It appears you need to be rooted to do this.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yep, it works on Marshmallow 6.0.1 when Rooted. Just tested it on my Huawei Watch.
..
I installed "Showear". You can set a simple touch pattern to unlock the watch. Crossing your arms will no longer trigger any action on your watch (except making the screen on).

Hi m8. I've done this on my LG urbane and works just fine ty a lot... but i modified a little your steps...
1) My lg urbane is rooted
2) I went to the ADB folder in my PC (using windows explorer) then using shift+right click i select "open command window here"
3) in this command window i did:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery (starts twrp)
in the TWRP:
Go to "Mount"
tick the "system" box
In the command window :
adb pull /system/usr/idc/synaptics_rmi4_i2c.idc (Dont need to select the folder, will appear in the ADB folder used to open the command window)***
*** When i tried to write the destination folder have not worked so i strongly advise not to fill this part, the command in the beginning is PULL not PUSH to take from the device and the file to be taken from the device had a different name as someone have stated before ***
4) In the notepad i did
I opened the file with the notepad and edit "touch.wake = 1" to "touch.wake = 0" (I did not delete this part just change the value)
5) in the command window:
adb pull <where you have the file> /system/usr/idc/
6) Reset my phone and works great!
Hello everyone ...First of all I want to write that these trick are for all version of android(6.0, 7.0, 8.0)
Lets go straight to the point.
Don't forget to check the screenshots below
I'm going to cover two topics
1. Customize U- touch
2. Enable nav bars
1. Customize U- touch
Step 1- Download any root browser (recommend Root browser classic by JRummy apps)
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummyapps.rootbrowser.classic&hl=en
All u can get in screenshots below
Step 2- Open system
Step3- Open usr
Step 4- Open Keylayout
Step 5- Open fpc1020tp.kl file as text file via RB text editor
Step 6- YOU will get this
Key 158 BACK VIRTUAL
Key 249 MENU
Key 254 APP_SWITCH
Key 183 HOME VIRTUAL
Step 7- Now remember this
Space between back virtual and home virtual is 10 space(press space 10 times before writing virtual)
Key 158 is single tap
Key 249 is swipe right
Key 254 is swipe left
Key 183 is long tap
For google assistant just type
ASSIST VIRTUAL
Add any command after any key you want
Step 8- Edit, save and reboot
Now its your decision how you want to customise it..... I'll attach some screenshots of users below so you get an idea ...
2. Enable soft navbars
Just go to system--open build.prop as text file via RB editor-- add these lines to the end and save and reboot

I flashed Oreo (CRB7) from Odin on my S8(SM-G950FD) (flashed on top of the Nougat with my data)
And there are 3 cases I couldn't find a solution
1. I cannot turn on "Allow clipboard" which allows Secure Folder data to be copied and pasted outside of Secure Folder. When I turn it on, it automatically turns off
2. I can take a screenshot inside the secure folder but it doesn't show bottom pane (the pane which I can expand the screenshot or crop or share it). But outside the secure folder screenshot works fine
3. Smart Select from Edge Panel does not work inside the secure folder anymore. (It works fine outside the secure folder). When I press anything (Rectangle, Oval, Animation or Pin to Screen) it does nothing
I have restarted the device but no luck.
Do you face these same problems? Please let me know. I want know if its for me only or everyone else.
Can someone Please help if know how to fix these.
Thank you

All of those are working for me.
The bug that I have is related to entering the SF. After I input the code to enter SF it goes back, sometimes 1 or 2 times before it actually enters.

********** ANNOUNCEMENT - Beta Enrollment without Banner (OPEN NOW - Nov 16,17) - Read More Here
INTRODUCTION - Hello all. Now Samsung wants us to go to Members app and keep looking for banner to sign up for Android 11, One UI 3 Beta . It went live October 27th, 10:20 PM EST, As fate would have it, i went to sleep early, i missed it and the banner refused to show up for me in the morning. Download was only showing up for people with unlocked variants on ATID firmware.
DISCLAIMER / NOTICE - Flashing is always risky. I am not responsible for anything that may happen to your device including but not limited to it turning against you, making you its slave and sucking you into the Matrix.
This post is a collection of wisdom, research and hard work of many people over many years across many forums and not just XDA. I will try to credit and link to their original posts.
TIP -Keep in Notice -This SHALL NOT Factory Reset Your Device or Format Data, it is still a good idea to Take Back Up - Just a Suggestion - Always have a latest Back Up
******** UPDATE - It seems ATT devices are getting wiped now if its CSC or the Sim remains to be tested.
i don't have ATT hence cant verify but in case you have an Unlocked device (N986U1) with ATT sim, then, removing sim and Changing the CSC to XAA/XAA/XAA before sideloading Beta is advisable.
PROBLEM STATEMENT - Missed the One UI 3.0, Android 11, Beta Sign up Banner in Members app or got the banner but didn't get the download and I really want it NOW.
Not sure if you want it now? - Find the BETA CHANGELOG HERE
GRAB YOURSELF A COFFEE / DRINK, because depending on where you at and how fast you/your internet speeds/your Machine is this may take anywhere between 7 to 45 MinsSOLUTION -
1. Pre-Requisites - Make sure Following Conditions are met before you start
You need a PC/Laptop along with your phone and USB Cable.
You need ADB installed, you can use ADB on Linux too - NOTE If your ADB Tools are not working, download my ADB Folder called platform-tools. Then extract it somewhere easy to remember/ find, like desktop
Remember the Location of the folder where you have ADB installed / Location of platform-tools- This is the location containing adb.exe file.
You may or may not need ADB/USB Drivers if any errors in ADB please Download Drivers from here and Install on your PC.
This following one step is relevant Only for flashing Beta 1
Use Odin to Flash Unlocked (SM-N986U1) ATID Firmware if you are not on that. Refer this thread to get your Firmware.
For changing Firmware from N986U to N986U1 and / or GUIDE TO FLASHING USING ODIN Refer This thread
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
2. Now Download the relevant Beta File that you intend to flash - note that to Sideload Beta 2 you need to be on Beta 1 first. Mandotory Sequence = Beta 1>>Beta 2>>Beta 3 There is no skipping versions possible here.
BETA 1 (ZTGJ) Get the Beta1.zip file from here Thanks to @thatotherguy.. for the original zip.
BETA 2 (ZTK1) Get the Beta2.zip file from here
BETA 3 (ZTK9) Get the Beta3.zip file from here
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
*************** Apply Update from SD card failed for me (Feel free to try that ) but here we will be using ADB Sideload Feature in Stock Recovery*************
HOW TO - Using ADB Sideload - Windows -The Process is Similar for Linux too
1. Copy the downloaded zip file to the ADB Folder (From Pre-Requisite step). ADB Folder is the folder containing ADB.exe it might be named differently for you (The one i have posted is called platform-tools)
2. Open Command Prompt Window as Admin.
3. Type in
Code:
cd Copy-paste the location of your ADB folder here
4. Connect the phone to the PC using USB Cable and Unlock it. Go to Developer Options and Switch on USB Debugging.
To turn on developer options go to Settings>>About Phone>>Software Information>> Then tap the build number 7 times - Developer options will appear at the bottom of Settings Menu
5. On your PC Type in Command Prompt
Code:
adb devices
6. Give Permission that appears on your phone and PC - I check the box Always Allow, you should do the same.
7. Now type the following and the phone will reboot to recovery.
Code:
adb reboot recovery
8. Once you see recovery on your phone Use Volume Keys to scroll down to Apply Update from ADB and press Power Button.
9. Now on your PC, Type the following in Command Prompt; this is just to be sure, it should show the device name with Sideload next to it.
Code:
adb devices
10. Type
Code:
adb sideload Beta1.zip
For Beta 2 use adb sideload beta2.zip Similarly For Beta 3 use adb sideload beta3.zip. Use whatever you have named the zip file. Most people use update.zip. The commands here are for the attached files in this post and their naming convention.
11. Wait for it to finish and Done
2nd (Second) BETA Is Out- How To Do this if you are not able to Enroll for Beta and or don't see update to download even after Enrolling
Second Beta should be flashed After Beta 1. Second Beta (ZTK1) can not be flashed unless you have Beta 1 (ZTJG).
To flash follow the same instructions as above only this time the prerequisite is you have to be on the 1st Beta. Download the 2nd Beta (ZTK1) Zip File to flash Here Thanks to @hayabusa1300cc for the FOTA Link.
3rd (Third) BETA Is Out- Nov 16, 2020 Do this if you are not able to Enroll for Beta and or don't see update to download even after Enrolling
Third Beta should be flashed After Beta 1>>Beta 2. Third Beta (ZTK9) can not be flashed unless you have Second Beta (ZTK1). Second Beta (ZTK1) can not be flashed unless you have Beta 1 (ZTJG).
To flash follow the same instructions as above only this time the prerequisite is you have to be on the 2nd Beta. Download the 3rd Beta (ZTK9) Zip File to flash Here
OPTIONAL THINGS TO DO POST UPDATE
If you want to enable RCS (In the Native SMS app) and Native Video calling (This feature is on Tmobile) have a look at this thread.
Check out this Guide Service Mode and CSC Guide/Enable LTE/5G Bands and Services/5G Low Band on U1 by @mellojosh
TROUBLESHOOTINGSome people might run into "cant read update.zip" error for that we need to make ADB Large address aware. Follow the Steps Here I use the Advanced mode as it shows the true false flags. - This wont happen if you use the ADB Tools provided by me above under the Pre-requisites section.

I flashed on an Unlocked one so there is no way for me to tell if this can be flashed on N986U since so many people have flashed Unlocked firmware on the U devices using Odin (One confirmed guy flashed unlocked firmware on Verizon locked device and got the Beta banner) hence i think this will work for all Snapdragon devices. Give it a try and see. Just that before you try this make sure you are on ATID firmware.

Too early in the morning to go out and test that. This is Beta and i have already encountered some bugs. So you have to be up for that.
Good Lock wont work, gesture navigation is buggy, you can not even apply wallpapers from the Galaxy Themes app.
Wallpaper Service on the other hand is greatly improved. Fingerprint sensor is much faster.

My friend there are so many reasons why that error can happen. Sometimes you might have to change the ADB version. I am attaching the platform-tools i used. Extract this zip inside folder on desktop and try. If that doesnt work you might need to update ADb/Samsung drivers. Let us know if this works.

Yes it did, running 3.0 beta now!

I flashed on an Unlocked one so there is no way for me to tell if this can be flashed on N986U since so many people have flashed Unlocked firmware on the U devices using Odin (One confirmed guy flashed unlocked firmware on Verizon locked device and got the Beta banner) hence i think this will work for all Snapdragon devices. Give it a try and see. Just that before you try this make sure you are on ATID firmware.

It has been there for at least 20 minutes... Do I need to cancel and restart?
I used the uploaded adb and the first link for update.zip.

Keep it
Hi Lohtse,
This device is unique I spend days wake up without sleep to solve the problem of the apps and I realize something important
The problem is bad target system management by Microsoft development tools
Microsoft store is so dumb there is many helpful app but it want appear just by search
Some of the is apps "on papers" not match with your device system version but in reality you can install it and it will work
Now let me tell you it's not totally bad device if you get the exact apps on it, it will be almost like your laptop with many helpful staff
First
Check the latest updates and then you have to unlock the system so you can do some enhancements like:
Increasing Paging files from 256MB to 1GB
Transfer files via SFTP without using the USB cable
Uninstall official apps preinstalled like (Photos, Calculator..etc) -> you need this
And more..
Second
here list of apps you might have some of it but with old version:
Before you start just install the official AppInstaller to be able to install apps directly from the phone without alternative tool
Get it from here:

About Dual Boot & Windows 10 ARM
You know.. I broke my phone system more than 5 times one of them it was completely dead but I was able to recover it again,
the point is if you need to try go ahead it's good to see full windows run on a phone and able to run x86 apps as well.
But
Here is few points why it's not very important
Your mobile internal storage will be filled by 70% because of the windows partition
You need a usable phone to call and send messages, it's not comfortable to switch the boot each time
Windows 10 Mobile is almost the same base of the normal Windows it just Microsoft makes it useless but I hope someone will be able to install a service to run windows apps inside it as I discovered in Windows 10 ARM, I was surprised that some of x86 apps works very well.
If you faced any problem during the installation or you need any assist let me know.
Hi
WOW excellent response thank you so much for taking the time to reply as you have..
Could you possible explain this a little further
First
Check the latest updates and then you have to unlock the system so you can do some enhancements like:
Increasing Paging files from 256MB to 1GB

Uninstall official apps preinstalled like (Photos, Calculator..etc) -> you need this

As to navigation apps am more looking for OSM mapping as I create my own maps for hiking etc

Update
If you got a new phone usually many updates need to be installed, this will fix many problems and increase the performance.
Go to "Settings"
Update & Security
Check for update / Windows Update
if there is any update it will appear or you will see a message "Your device is up to date"
If the system need updates this will take some time, and it might be there is many update not only one so keep try until you get "Your device is up to date"
Unlock
Unlocking the system is based on your needs.
If you are using the phone for regular use you may keep it as it is.
What I was meaning with
Increasing Paging: Paging files will help to handle more applications in the background
SFTP: to transfer the data via wireless but it's totally optional you can still use the cable
Uninstall apps
If you tried to install the new version of i.e."Photos" it will not work because it's already installed.
so the solution is to remove the current app, but by default windows will not allow you to do that form the settings because it's built in.
As solution you can use "Interop Tools" by gus33000
Available Here:
Release Interop Tools v1 Version 2.1.7.0 (Legacy) · gus33000/InteropTools
This is the latest release of Interop Tools from its Version 1 source with minor updates.
github.com
More details: Interop Tools v1 Version 2.1.7.0
Install / Sideload it (Check the guide below)
And go to "General"
Then Select "Applications"
Then Navigate to "Package List"
Search for the app you need to remove it.
You will see many packages related to the same app
In the bottom actions bar there is "4 lines" icon click on it to activate it.
Now select the packages you need to remove.
Click on the trash icon and wait until the app removed
Go to main screen to check if the app removed
If it's remove you can now install the new version
Note: I'm not sure if these steps works without unlocking I didn't tried before unlock, just try before to unlock it might work.
Install apps
Now Download the apps form the links and save them in custom folder.
Go to your device Settings
Select "Update & Security"
Select "For Developers"
Select "Developer Mode"
Activate "Turn on remote diagnostics"
Activate "Authentication"
Using your computer: open the browser and enter the link that appeared in the developer page in your phone
if you got security warning message ignore it and continue (it's normal)
On your phone press "Pair" Button you will see pin code
Enter this pin code in your browser page and click "Submit"
Now you can install the app called "AppInstaller" using the web page
Once you able to install "AppInstaller" you can almost install the other apps from you mobile directly.
Note your device and computer need to be on the same network
OSM Mapping
to be honest I never used it before so I will do some search about it.
If I got anything new will let you know.
I wish most of the descriptions is clear, if you need extra details please let me know.

This version requires downloading the extensions after logging in to insidewindows.net because there is no General - Applications option in the menu by default.
Have you tried the open source Interop Tools v1 Version 2.1.7.0 made by @gus33000?

Increase the paging file (required unlocked device):
Open Interop Tools
Go to "Registry"
Select "Registry browser"
Select "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE (HKLM)"
Select "System"
Select "CurrentControlSet"
Select "Control"
Select "Session Manager"
Select "Memory Management"
Select "Paging File"
Now In "Registry Value Data" Change The numbers from 256 to 1024
The final value will be "u:\pagefiles.sys 1024 1024"
Click on the "right icon at the bottom" to save the result
To check if the result saved just reopen the "Paging File" again, If the result back to the original "256" maybe your device is not unlocked yet.
Reboot the device to apply the changes.
Change Screen timeout:
Open Interop Tools
Go to "Registry"
Select "Registry browser"
Select "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE (HKLM)"
Select "Software"
Select "Microsoft"
Select "Settings"
Select "Lock"
Select "DisableNever"
Set "Registry Value Data" to 0
Then go to settings and check "Never" will be available now with some extra values.

To be able to edit some of the protected registry values you need to do "Interop Unlock"
"Interop Unlock" will allow you to do almost everything you need.
Don't activate "Full Filesystem Access" In "Unlock" -> "Interop Unlock" it will not work with Lumia 950/XL and it might affect on the usb connection.
If you didn't find a clear guide for "Interop Unlock" let me know I will write a full guide based on my experiment because some of the details online line is very clear.

Thank you for that information worked a treat.
I have read that the FM radio is not activated on the 950xl, is this correct is so how do I reactivate it?
also is there away to have a bigger tile other than the three choices we have?

The radio is working by default, try this app (almost the best you could find)
Radio FM Phone
Sadly the tiles sizes are fixed as I know, if you want to add some design to the start page you can use this app
Group Tiles
and this app if you want to add custom tiles based on your needs
edgeTile
Check the attached image to see how I did some titles to organize the start page.

Thank you for that... and radio works great... Have to say am loving the 950xl.... only thing I am really missing is a good off route navigation/mapping app if I could find a good one then everything would be nearly perfect.
also is there away to install the original lumia camera app so we can get flash control(number of flashes used ) back?
finally how do I gain full access to the file system on the device???
does any one have the file for this
Lumia Cinemagraph (Official Store)
Cool app you can take photo and make part of it alive with repeated motion, just try it
microsoft.com/en-us/p/lumia-cinemagraph/9wzdncrfhx4d
will not let me download it from store to device as says not compatible with this device

It should work, ignore the compatible message just check the following:
the apps updated including "Microsoft Store" from "Menu" -> "Donwloads and updates"
there is no remaining system updates "Settings" -> "Windows update"
check if there is a "Get" button sometimes it's appear even of there is a compatibility message, click on the button if you found it.
If nothing above worked do the following:
Go to your PC
Be sure you are using the same email/account in both "Phone/PC"
Open the browser and be sure you are logged to your account/email
Open the link of the app
click on "Get"
a message will appear "you own this app"
once you get this message go back to your phone
Open Microsoft store -> Menu
Select "My Library"
Check if the app is there (you can sort the library by name which is better)
Click "Install" behind the app icon
The problem is some of the apps does not appear in Phone store but it will appear in PC store
so this trick will help you to get many apps in the same way,
but I think it will work only with the browser not the desktop app.

As per my experiments, gain the full access to the file system is not a big deal.
the files are protected anyway and some of the important folders assigned to custom users you can't have access, even if you was able to force replace the ownership of the folder and open it.. it will cause some issues with the system.
if you have something really important in the future it's better to use Mass Storage Mode, but accessing the file system while windows is running almost useless.
just don't use the feature in "Interop Tools" which called "Full Filesystem Access" I tried it before and it caused a problem with the connection with the computer I wasn't able to access the storage
