Hello,
After updating to Nougat my phone shuts down suddently and I need to restart it all the time.
The phone's switching off predominantly, when the battery is 50% or lower. Sometimes it starts without problem and sometime it keeps shutting down until I plug the charger, dispite it shows 40-50% charge. The battery percentage is also changing after every switch off.
Factory reset didn't help me, I already tried it. I didn't have this problem with Marshmallow.
What should I do? Please help!! :crying:
Thanks,
Vincent.
PD.: I'm from Venezuela, so the warranty is not really an option.
the warranty is a option if you have someone that can pick the phone in US.
go back to MM, and tell us what happen
PD: battery stats is live yet or google remove this option?

Thanks for your answer.
No, I don't have anyone in US, that's why I said It's not an option.
I want to go back to MM, but how do I do it?
you have unlocked your bootloader? If you have it unlocked just search a little around the forum

No, I haven't.
The one I have is the Amazon version, I just read this one can't be unlocked, is that right?

Yes and no.
Many people could unlock their phone. IF you have the 32gb version you have more possibilities but try

I couldn't do it, it doesn't qualify for bootloader unlocking.
What should I do? I don't wanna lose my phone.

Sorry mate, I can't help you, you can't go back. Maybe you can try applying again nougat but via fastboot. But this could brick your phone.
Reconsider, search somebody that can receive your phone in US and use the warranty. There's so many people who works shipping through airplane things and use a residential address

Hey, I was thinking about getting the Arc, but I' wondering how good the battery life is, and just in genera; how good the phone is? Once it's rooted, what else can you do on it without being able to load custom roms?

It is a smart phone and battery life differs from a person to another. Do you want me to say its good? On my side, I like the battery life and I think it is totally enough for me.
+PS there are more threads about this and next time try to search before posting a new one.
Cheers

Sorry, I pressed enter while typing the title and it submitted the post for me. I was also wondering about the usefulness of rooting the phone as I mentioned in my edit.
from what I have seen and experienced from Android, root is a nice feature to get rid of unwanted extra stuff, system files and files came from your carrier and even SE stuff that you don't need. Without them, phone runs faster and battery is better.
Rooting process is easy and no risk in it at least for me but you have to be sure that you know what is going on and how to fix if anything happens instead of freakin out.
+ custom ROM won't happen on rooted devices, you need a unbranded device which can have a unlocked booloader later for custom ROMs/
So I take it that just unbranding the phone following the guides on here isn't enough to get SE to unlock the Bootloader?

well no.
Your phone needs to be bootloader unlockable. It means that phone it self has to come unbranded from Sony Ericsson factory, means no carrier every put their hands on the phone then bootloader on your phone may get unlocked.
hi..you don't necessarily need boot loader unlocked devices for custom roms.. they managed it on x10 for 6 months or so..

Right, I meant more like full functional ROM including kernel tweaks but I guess they are achieving that as well. I am running "J" 2.3 on my X10 too with bunch of WLODs
So, I just got myself a brand new Nexus 6P today, and I'm in love. However, after unlocking the bootloader, connecting to my Wifi network (haven't gotten to test others yet) seems to cause my device to slow down and lock up. This happens on both the stock rom and on cyanogenmod. Has anybody else experienced this, or know how to fix it without RMAing my phone?

I never faced any such problem, ever. Which Android version and build number are you currently running on your 6P?
Also did you try re-locking and then checking if it works fine?

I'm on Android 6.0.1 and my build number is rather large because I'm on cyanogenmod right now, you can see a screenshot of my about page if you go to imgur slash 1b8VtH7 and yes, it did persist when I re-locked it
EDIT: If you want, I can make a video of the behavior so you can see it for yourself.

I could see in the screenshot that your radio version is latest, so my doubts are clear, and everything is fine there. To rule out the software aspect completely, you could give a try to a factory reset by flashing the factory image.
If that doesn't work, I would advise you to re-lock bootloader, and take your phone to the service centre.
Yeah, I was gonna give re-flashing stock a try in the morning. As far as bringing it to a service center, I've got no idea what to do, since I bought the phone through Amazon. Hopefully there should be some sort of RMA procedure available through them

Good luck. :good:
Even I brought my Nexus 6P through Amazon India. I had an issue with a misplaced volume key, so what I did was, I restored stock, relocked and took the phone to the nearest Huawei service centre. Took the phone, box, and all accessories, and also a copy of invoice from Amazon itself.

Well, I got antsy and just reflashed a bunch of different versions and roms; it's all the same, but now it's actually saying there's a problem instead of just hanging; gotta send it in -_- Oh well, at least I know when it finally gets here (again) I'll have an awesome phone.

I've wanted to grill out some of the problems with the A7 that's came with it, but after realizing I've never done this before, I've also noticed there's no actual ROM out yet
Should I just wait until the ROM comes and maybe some full guides?

Really just cosmetic things like the notification bell, maybe switching up the emojis, small things. I always wanted to try a different ROM on this phone, so I guess it isn't anything that needs to be done right now.

just unlocked my bootloader and rooted. Wonderful being able to use my root apps again. Chnaged my emoji using emoji switcher which i really wanted to do. Hate the stock android emoji.. debloated a little, and now about to change the system to my favorite font. I say go for it. If you do, let me know. I can send some pointers
considering there is absolutely no rom support yet I would hold off, wait out your 30 day return period and if there are roms after that and you want to void your warranty then do it then. Also I'm sure people are working on getting the bootloader unlocked without contacting ZTE so there is another reason to wait.

If you want to wait until the 30 day period is over, you can go ahead. im keeping the phone for a while so ive just gone ahead and rooted. there is a method to unlock the bootloader without contacting ZTE. I did it that way. its fairly easy.

There is a fairly simple way to Unlock your boot loader right now, it seems to work for most people. Its possible they may figure out a way to block this in future updates (I am not an expert). If you are with in your retail return window I would recommend trying the method because if you manage to really mess something up, you can at least return it.
Just take your time.
The instructions are for multiple versions and slightly out of order. Make sure everything is working before you begin.
If you plan to go through ZTE and in theory void your warranty, then by all means wait until you really need it.
Good luck.

I just got my A7. Coming from OPO with a sultan rom running xposed. I want to root but honestly I am not super smart developer. I am good following direction and figuring things out. I honestly love Sulan rom and would love it on A& but I doubt he does a rom for it as he mostly is busy with school and sticks with OPO or OP3.
I am debating on rooting as I mostly just want xposed for its youtube app adblocker and in app blocking apps.
I would suggest waiting til roms are developed and little more mature. Which if judging by the speed of root being available I would say could be as soon as few months or less.
Big respect for the developers and who keep the community and advancements going. Thanks all!

I don't think you can disable the bell and keep the lockscreen exactly as it is.

Hi there everyone,
Is it possible to to flash the Motorola OEM rom to an XT1625 that is running the ad-supported rom by Amazon? The phone has already been updated to Nougat if that makes a difference.
Thanks for your time!
No. Only if you have an unlocked bootloader.

I believe they are one in the same(XT1625).
It comes with every imaginable Amazon app, but the lockscreen ad(full screen after reboot) was the sticking issue for me. For someone less weird than I am about ads, it doesn't seem to be much of an issue. My wife said it didn't bother her a bit. The fatal flaw in the phone for her was a complete lack of notification LED. Since the phone is unrootable with Nougat, the LED on the phone can not be made to operate during normal use.

Ok so I got one in the end. I allowed it to do one update as it wouldn't get out of my face about it, however now it's trying to update me to Nougat. Should I look to root and unlock the phone now before updating it?
Hey XDA,
Am a new user and i need some advice on the new Andriod O.
In the past I had the Andriod 7.1.1 and my got the BLOD. I sent the phone back to and got another one with Andriod 7.0.
I never upgraded the version because i didnt know if it was safe and now seeing that Andriod O is out. Am just wondering if its safe to upgrade?
Am considering to unlock the Bootloader and USB Debugging just in the event something goes wrong i guess i can always install a new ROM or something.
As i really dont want to be hurt again
Any advice for a newbie?
Thanks in advance.

The android version isn't what causes the BLOD but a degraded battery is what causes it. It is completely safe to update to O.

Okay when i called Hauwei support they told me it was a problem with 7.1.1 thats why i never updated.
So does that mean that the BLOD can come back? Or was it due to an inferior battery used on some devices ?

It depends on how well you look after your battery. This issue is mostly present on the Nexus 6p as AFAIK but it can happen on any device. Just try to look after your battery by charging to the max of 80% and try not to go under 30% too often. What Huawei told you assuming you understood them correctly was BS and likely a way for them to put the blame on Google and not their hardware. Degraded batteries cause bootloops. If you already had the issue once then it will likely come back so you should definitely change the battery if you can't get Huawei to send you a new one.

I guess what Hauwei was saying was BS but google didnt offer any help just said to contact them.
I try honestly try to look after the battery, i normally let it charge to 100% at night and take it off before i sleep. I dont leave it on the charger ever or longer than i need. Then charge it again around 20-15% back to full.
If i was to charging at 30% to 80%, i dont think would give me alot of time and would have to charge more often. Wouldn't that harm the battery more?

This is the second phone they sent me, so it doesnt have any more warranty. Am hopeful it can last and would have to replace anything. :fingers-crossed: Are there any sources for good battery replacement ?

Your first thought was the correct one. Start by unlocking your bootloader and then update to 8.0 and enjoy your phone. If/when you ever have a battery issue there are plenty of places to have it replaced at a reasonable price. Android software version was never the cause (or cure) to a bootlooping phone, so you got some bad information there.
