After updating my zenfone 5 (intel 2.0GHz) to android Marshmallow screen locks and unlocks randomly when it's laying in landscape or horisontal position(if I handle it with any angle it also does, but less frequently)
I have no idea what to do. I have tried unofficial CM13.1 and Resurection Remix and it's the same(I made clean flash of course). Dirty unicorns doesn't boot at all, so I have no chance to check it.
Maybe I should flash any speciffic firmware to use marshmallow without problems but I have no idea wchich one... (Is there any step-by-step manual of moving to MM and flashing these ROMs? I'm not sure but i think I have used this one)
The second problem but a bit smaller is that I can't connect to the cellular data internet but i'd focus one the first one.
Here's the video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qEAg6K3z0OE
If I enable any screen lock I just can't use the phone
Before Marshmallow update(on stock ROM, but unlocked) there was everything ok.
It also doesn't locks on TWRP, only on system
thats came from bootloaderunlock you can use cm 13.1 kernel and enable dnxfix for this second dirtyunicorn is booting when you came from cm based roms you must make a fullwipe then dirty is aosp thanks
Thanks
Ok, I flashed CM13.1 boot img. It's the same. I also tried to reflash whole CM from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-5/development/cyanogenmod-13-t3382702 and it doesn't work.
The phone still locks and unlocks its screen :/
I made full wipe of course...
"dnxfix" - do you mean "dnfix" wchich is mentioned in cyanogen's thread? Ok, I'll try it. And slockfix. It looks promising
Have the same problem here. The problem goes away on airplane mode though.
Hello,
I received my Nexus 6P yesterday and got my SIM card activated without any issues at Verizon. I immediately took it home, unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP, and then flashed CyanogenMod's latest nightly. After booting in, wireless networks weren't detected, and I only had 3G (no 4G LTE as I should). I restored my backup of the stock ROM that I made in TWRP and it hung at the Google logo. I'm not sure why. I then flashed all the latest factory restore images (MTC19X) to get it working again and determined that the issues I had in CyanogenMod might have happened due to the vendor.img I had on my phone at the time not being compatible with that build of CM13.
My questions are:
1) What are the known issues that would likely occur due to vendor.img being a different version than what CM13 was based on? The concept of vendor.img is new to me. I haven't had this, as far as I know, on any of my other phones (granted I'm coming from a locked Samsung Galaxy S5 that I've had for almost 2 years)
2) How can you easily tell which vendor.img CM was based on so you know which one to flash?
3) Is there anything else I should be made aware of before attempting to flash CM13 again?
4) While using CM13, do most people recommend a custom kernel? If so, which one and how stable is it? What are the benefits of switching from the stock kernel, and how simple is it to go back if there's a problem?
Thanks!!
dude...I just got the N6P and ran CM13 within hours. This is what I did...
unlocked the bootloader
downloaded the lastest (MTC19X) image off of https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images and unpacked it into the C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools folder
ran the flash-all.bat
fastbooted TWRP
installed CM13. (didn't wipe internal storage)
installed arm64 open Gapps pico
BAM!!!
right now running stock kernel. it's cool. I'm PrivacyGuard-ing the hell out of all my apps (turned off START AT BOOT and KEEP AWAKE for almost every downloaded app), though, so battery is OK
also using Kernel Adiutor but underclocking values for the CPUs doesn't seem to stick
So it likely worked for you since you had flashed the newest vendor.img first. Apparently there are compatibility issues with certain features that cause them not to work (such as WiFi) if you're using an older one.

1) Depends on ROM /VENDOR, sometimes nothings happens then an error message, sometimes things doesnt work
2) Just download fresh the latest snapshot, release or nightly (they are much more stable then for a few years!) and vendor image (use these ones which are recommended!)
https://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_angler (there is a link for the vendor)
3) If you stay close on the tutorials, i dont know what should happen (flashing a rom is normally not critical, installing a recovery can be!)
4) Custom kernels can be great, but its not a must-have. Which kernel you should use depends on your wishes: better battery, more power etc.
Hope i could have help you a little bit!

Very much so. I appreciate it!
Has anyone encountered the constant popup of the Select Sim Card message? I'm using project fi and I am still unable to find a solution to this issue.
Device Lenovo k6 power k33a42 running stock 7.0 last stock build.
Issue
Device would work fine as long as I am on lockscreen, I can put password type every thing, but the moment I enter the correct password and start using it, it would freeze on the homescreen, I would lock and unlock again by typing the password, only to get frozen screen. so power off and reboot, I can type in password again and get to homescreen, this time I could use the device without freezing,
3rd time, it freeze in between.
lock, unlock, reboot, seems to make it work again.
factory reset many times. no effect.
flashed custom ROM LOS 15.1 and LOS 14.1, got process system stopped error on LOS 15.1 and on 14.1 have to log.
Used no mods, no files apart from ROM and opengapps
Clean flash, No external sd card.
My first few suspect,
1. LCD display loose connection that causes the device to sometimes works flawlessly and sometimes make it impossible, opened back panel, did some not so useful checkup, closed again. useless don't try.
2. Messed up OTA updates, flashing stock S223 update, will report if this solved.
3. Overheat, most unlikely,
and the culprit
Lenovo, spoiled Moto as well.
If anyone has any info that they can share, please feel free to comment..
Update
After flashing
Lenovo_K33a42_S223_Q00440_20170610 via QFIL (removed all the data, including the internal sd card)
All The problem seems to be gone, touch is responsive, no freezing or overheating anymore, even the MIC issue was resolved which was present before on this particular unit. noticed unstable and low sim signal sometimes.
I think it's best for anyone who is coming from Stock ROM to flash the Stock ROM via QFIL to avoid such issues first.
Got OTA update K33_S223_170610_ROW_TO_K33_S229_170908_ROW of 76mb
after update again got another one, system looks to be working fine. touch was responsive as well.
K33_S229_170908_ROW_TO_K33_S231_17114_ROW
79MB
after flashing this I could notice touch lags, this is without installing any other 3rd party apps and no files whatsover apart from the ones lenovo pushed through the device.
I have an SM-N900V (Note 3, Verizon variant, hltevzw).
Detailed timeline:
- I flashed it back to firmware OB6 using Odin 3.09.
- I rooted it using ArabicToolApp.
- I used this tool to unlock the bootloader
- I installed a build of LineageOS 14.1 for hlte
- It didn't recognize the SIM so I did a dirty flash of this build of LineageOS 15.1 for hltetmo on top (hltetmo actually has different hardware than hlte, and the correct one for SM-N900V)
- Messed around with the APNs until it recognized and connected to Verizon's network. I DO have functioning SMS and LTE data, but I have not tested phone calls yet
- Messed around some with SuperSU in system- and systemless-mode. Bricked my device more times than I could count, then unbricked over and over using SuperSU's impeccable installer. Messed around with this quite a bit
- Also messed around with Xposed some. The OS is too unstable to run Xposed Installer correctly, so I uninstalled it
- Removed SuperSU, installed Magisk. Phone now passes SafetyNet
So, my phone now runs 8.1 and a Lineage build from 9 days ago. Cool. But, if I was satisfied I wouldn't be making this post. There are multiple instances of the same kind of "app freeze" - App screen freezes, sometimes it'll go completely black. Interactivity doesn't work, obviously, the app is completely frozen. Hold Back to kill doesn't work (Application Killed toast shows, but nothing happens). ANR (when it comes up) Close doesn't work. Home button works and brings me away from the app, but it's still there. Swipe away in Overview doesn't actually kill the app. Even in App Info, Force Stop doesn't work. The app is forever frozen. Tapping the icon from the launcher no longer does anything, it doesn't even bring up the app. The app is permanently crashed and inaccessible until a reboot.
Issues:
- Sometimes when booting the phone will not recognize the SIM until a reboot. As in, "No SIM" message and everything
- Sometimes it will get stuck at boot, I have foxy-boot installed, so I can see the logs. I don't remember what it was all about, if it comes up again I'll update the post
- Google Chrome sometimes crashes when trying to download a file. I've gotten my phone to self-host before, but this issue always seems to come back, and when it does Google Chrome ALWAYS crashes when trying to download a file. App Freeze
- Netflix installs and logs in but freezes at the "can't connect to service (-9)" message. App Freeze
- Certain apps like NativeScript Playground get stuck at the splash screen. App Freeze
- Xposed Installer did this when opening the Settings, whether Xposed was installed or not. App Freeze
- F-Droid also sometimes crashes, although it's somewhat arbitrary, I can't reproduce it reliably. App Freeze
I have tried reflashing the ROM, flashing Xposed uninstaller, reinstalling Magisk, none of it seems to work. I have TWRP 3.3.0 so I can do pretty much anything that doesn't involve the SD card (the SD card is probably broken in hardware, it's so read-only that Android and TWRP both can't write to it at all, but they can both read the same half-broken filesystem).
I fear that this OS is just too unstable for the phone and there's nothing I can do. I sincerely hope this is not the case.
Try other ROMs or perform a clean installation.
Make sure you are on PL1 bootloader/modem.
Currently using Resurrection Remix v5.8.5 Nougat because it was the last Android version for this device with working Bluetooth calls but if you don't use that feature you could use their Pie version as well.
RR ROMs are solid and work extremely well.
Do a clean installation via TWRP if you go this route.

I did a clean installation of RR 6.0.0 (Android 8.1) and it works a lot better than LineageOS did, with even more configuration options. I really really hate Pie and its gesture-based gimmicks (Screw you Google for copying more of Apple's bad design decisions), so I assumed Oreo would be more stable, but the ROM I installed still has crashing apps. Google Chrome still won't download most things (I've gotten it to download before), trying to change the accent color crashes the 'LineageOS Settings' app, and F-Droid is seriously messed up, but most other things are stable, including the Verizon network which required no pesky APN setup.
I'm on the OB6 bootloader/modem, is that a problem? I doubt that would be an issue, but I can always back up and reflash via Odin. The cool thing is that I installed a patch to TWRP which backs up /data/media along with everything else, after installing the custom ROM. So, really, I can do anything and be perfectly fine. There's, AFAIK, no way to ruin the phone unless something exploits the eMMC brick bug.
If there's another ROM you'd recommend me install, I'd be happy to try it out. I would really like to have a stable OS on here, where Chrome will work and download files. I'd also love Camera2 API since the phone has the chip for it (Snapdragon 800), but none of the ROMs I have support it and there's been no discussion online other than some years-old threads with no answers. I know there have been some articles online listing Note 3 as a phone that'd support Camera2 API with a software update. Would updating the bootloader/modem do anything on that front?
I would upgrade to PL1 bootloader/modem for your device. This is what I have and have had 0 issues. I'd recommend you trying the Samsung Internet browser over Google Chrome; it's much better in my opinion.
You can find the modem here:
https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=160694
As far as ROMs are concerned you can either try the Nougat version of RR which is what I am currently using as my daily driver with no issues at all including Bluetooth calls:
[ROM][HLTE\TMO\CHN][OFFICIAL]*** Resurrection Remix N 5.8.5 ***[13.03.2018]
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...-resurrection-remix-n-v5-8-3-vanilla-t3615227
See here to check whether or not your phone has the Camera2 API capabilities; if not use OpenCamera.

Excuse me but custom ROMs don't have "the Samsung Internet browser". Additionally the modem shouldn't cause app crashes (if it does, correct me please).
I might try the Nougat ROM. Bluetooth calls don't matter to me, but stability does. I just kinda really like Oreo and all its customization options but it may be too new for this old phone from 2013. It still works as a phone though, Messages and phone calls work fine, so I may just deal with it.
I use Open Camera, and I've tried multiple Camera2 API enablers. The phone has a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 and the necessary links (in hardware, between the camera/other things) to support Camera2, but nobody seems to have tried it. Probably because the Verizon Note 3 is really locked down, and can only be rooted on a special version of the samsung ROM, and can only be bootloader-unlocked via the eMMC brick bug... There are Magisk modules for Camera2 on Exynos-based devices, but none for the Verizon Note 3 AFAIK.
I just found out that RR 7 officially supports `hltetmo`, but RR 6 doesn't. That's kinda sad, I hate Pie, but I might try it...
I've had the SEPL stuff before, that's the one that can't be rooted. I suppose I didn't consider upgrading again after I unlocked my bootloader. I'll try SEPL1 firmware again, but with a custom ROM...
You can install the Samsung browser from the Play Store. Again, highly recommended.
As far as SEPL1 just update the modem to it; that shouldn't cause any issues but it will ensure your SIM is recognized and data works with the latest ROMs. That is one requirement you will see listed on all of these ROMs.
Not sure which one you are trying to install but here are all the Resurrection Remix versions:
Nougat:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...-resurrection-remix-n-v5-8-3-vanilla-t3615227
Oreo:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development/rom-resurrection-remix-n-6-0-0-t3748689
Pie:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development/rom-resurrectionremix-v7-0-0-t3894244
If you don't care about Bluetooth audio during calls then you can safely use Oreo and Pie options.

Yeah but, data and calling worked fine on the LineageOS and RR roms, so there's no reason to update the modem.
Besides, I flashed SEPL1 6 times using Odin (multiple times by flashing, rebooting directly into download mode and flashing it once more) and it doesn't want to update. Still on OB6. On the latest (official Pie) RR rom, data worked on first boot but doesn't work anymore (I'm going to mess around with the data settings until it works), but I have no reason to believe that my phone needs a modem update to function.
I did, many times, make calls to various phone numbers and they all worked flawlessly. SEPL1 is therefore not needed if that's all it does.
And I do know about all the Resurrection Remix versions: One is Nougat from their archive, one is the Oreo version I had installed just yesterday before flashing Pie, and the other one is Pie which is now officially supported.
I am currently working on getting RR7 to work, it's only crashed a few times, and I don't even remember what those times were (I think it was using the Back button in Overview/Recents at the same time as the Overview button?)
When updating modem via Odin you have to pull the battery and don't let it reboot the phone for it to stick (disable that option in Odin) and flash it again and then reboot. If you look at the ROM threads for anything newer than Android v5 they all recommend updating to the latest bootloader & modem for your device which in this case is PL1. This can be to prevent crashes/no signal /no SIM, etc...
Are you dirty flashing these ROMs? I have never experienced any crashes with any of the RRs on my phone but I always do a clean install and make sure to also delete the "Android" folder on my SD Card via TWRP after doing the "Advanced" wipe and deleting everything listed there except for the External SD Card.

"pull the battery and don't let it reboot the phone for it to stick (disable that option in Odin) and flash it again and then reboot"
So...
- Reboot phone into Download mode
- Pull battery while in Download mode
- Flash thingy
- Reboot back into Download mode
- Flash thingy again
? That will be very difficult to do with my dodgy charging cable that doesn't like being repositioned...
I do that without pulling the battery, but I could try it with.
I'm downloading the full SEPL stock image to flash. Once that's done, I'll flash it, reflash TWRP, restore my backup, and see if the baseband has updated.
And no, never dirty flashed the ROM. Always completely wiped data, system, cache and everything. I always backup first. I currently have 3 backups: Lineage OS (before installing RR), RR6 (Oreo), and RR7 (right now before that stock image I'm going to flash).
My external SD card is nonfunctional and read-only with some trash files from the previous phone.
I flashed the stock SEPL ROM. Baseband still didn't change. Restored from backup, SIM now works. Network is detected, SMS and data both work reliably on all reboots.
I will mention that I did brick my phone by using Odin to erase the eMMC, but I fixed that from TWRP, and now everything works flawlessly. There are still some app crashes, but most things are very stable. Camera2 API still nonexistent, which is sad because I got used to it on my old phone, but I shouldn't hope for it.
I have been searching the internet for a fix for VERY long. I am trying to put lineage OS 14.1/15.1 (I have tried both.) on my SM-T580. Once I install it on to my device, at first, it looks fine. Working like it is supposed to but, when I try to turn it back on, (Not booting it up) either it turns back on but it is not displaying anything. Other times, it shows lines on the screen. I tried installing a kernel, but that didn't seem to fix it. The kernel was for nougat 7.1.2. If someone (anyone!) could help me, I would be really pleased.
