hi,
only installed a whatsapp version years ago, now wanted to use the "market" again....but i cant download anything.
the error is:
"the download has failed, please try again" (free translation from german)
this happend for 3 different applications, and of course a retry does the same...
i really only want whatsapp(which needs to be updated) which is running with android 2.1 according to their homepage.
any ideas how to solve this?
Hmmm lets see
If its shown on play store it means it is compatible
Have u tried on another sim
May be unstable network
If ur device is rooted flash gapps again compatible with rom u use
If not rooted try factory restore settings

the device isnt touched, its only been updated from 2.something to 2.1.
but thats a official update from sony.
factory restore settings would kill contacts/calender right?

I uninstalled a system app via Titanium Backup, i think it was huawei lock. Now i cant find it anymore even when i factory reset and wipe data, but the main problem is that whenever i hide my navigation bar, it cant be swiped up again and the suspend buttons wont show up. The fix that i can think of is flashing a new rom or update emui 3.0 if it works.
H60-L04
B370
EMUI 3.0
Please help thanks!

Hello, first of all I need to mention that; Recently, I've installed Lockscreen from Playstore, ZUI Lockscreen or something like this, and since this, my lockscreen is broken.
So I just flashed XOSP Rom (no dirty flash) and also latest Open GApps but I have a big problem, when I set lockscreen setting to "Swipe" I don't have any lockscreen, but when I set PIN or anything else, it works.. I've tried other ROM/Gapps I still have this problem.
Tried to wipe everything and reinstall, no luck.
Could anyone help me please ?
Thanks !
Maybe flash back to stock and start over? Not sure why but a complete flash back to stock, including the userdata.img file will solve the issue.
That's what I did some hours after my post, it's fixed now. That was really weird. I didn't wanted to do that but now it's done !
Anyway, thank for the reply.
Hi all!
suddenly the swipe left or right gesture on navbar broke, my screen does not resize anymore =(
i think it just happened after i downloaded a navbar related playstore app to change icons etc in navbar or view visuals in it.
i deinstalled the app later and then the gesture for one-hand-mode was broken i think.
i tried to fix it like in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WFQt22hNG3Q
smthng like: activate magnifying glass, use it, deactivate it, one-hand-mode should work. it do not work.
Any help how to get this back?
i'm on (stock) emui 5.0 android 7.0 with magisk, systemless root and twrp

Just make sure you backup your data even if it won't erase it, just to be safe in case something happened

I have FRD-L04 and mine is full stock with no root and a locked bootloader.

Reflashing stock firmware will solve the issue, I guess.
Just be sure to backup your data

yea, before i unlocked bootloader and installed magisk i was on pure stock and installed this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.perfectapps.muviz
after i used it, took some settings, deinstalled it my mini-view was broken.. then i made factory reset and all was good again...
but now i have magisk and applied all my app and userdata backups from old phone.
... in the next days i try to flash system only and try to inform myself (and you ofcause) if flashing system partition will harm in any kind my files, settings, etc.
thanks guys so far.
maybe there is some other trick to bring this function back

Ok, we'll wait for your response
so, i managed to get myself to the "mini-view option screen" by entering the (from playstore downloaded) activity manager and there i startet the correct activity.
since my could not find this point in my settings i had to go that way.
see screenshot.
http://imgur.com/Q1Mxq42
so the function was enabled, is disabled and re-enabled it. nothing. still no swipe for mini-view
disable it, restart, enable, restart still does not work....
is there a way to find out why this is like that?
can someone maybe check the code, what this switch actually do to a system file, so maybe i can take a look inside mine and change -a number for example- by myself?
reflash anything to my phone is the last way i guess... that cant be the only option.

U can do that easily by swiping on middle button to recents button on navigation bar. Works on both sides.

He mentioned that it's stuck (meaning swiping doesn't work for him)
But does the touch work on navigation bar?

the touch works without problems.
i just think that the navbar-app i installed earlier somehow broke this feature for me.
i dont want to say "please guys (n girls) try this on your honor 8 and see if it breaks the feature on your phone, too."
i think the app changed some settings which were accessible without root-permissions and my honor 8 can't change these settings back...
but if someone maybe plans to backup his/her system.img and is free to try the app and if it breaks this feature it maybe help.
so that i can say if it is really the app fault.
maybe someone knows the file in the phone where the variables for the mini-view are stored to change/check it all manually?!
thanks so far
new info:
i extracted system.img from latest update.zip (update.app) and flashed it via twrp. after that i wiped dalvic and cache and booted the phone.
mhm.. nothing changed =/
all settings stayed the same, swipe to mini-view still not working....
anyone know in which partition the systemsettings are stored ?
I don't know in which partition they are.
I'll search
[problem solved]
problem solved!
i just got into
Settings>
advanced settings>
restore/backup>
reset all settings
not the nice way i guess, but it did the trick and now i'm able again to use mini-view (and have the slider back in settings again)
Hi there, my OP6 is running:
Android 8.1.0
Oxygen 5.1.8
I haven't updated in a long time because I was afraid to lose root. Now I actually want to unroot my phone and figured I could also do the updates.
So main questions are:
How do I perform unroot? Should I just perform the android update that's waiting in the settings menu?
Can things go wrong? Can my phone get bricked?
Does my phone get wiped?
Incase my phone gets wiped, what's the best way to make backups of system settings?
You can download latest 10.3.1 zip and do a local update...in os updater options...
you can do it without wiping...BUT I STRONGLY RECCOMEND YOU TO FULL WIPE...CAUSE YOU'RE SKIPPING AT LEAST 3 ANDROID VERSIONS...AND YOU MAY FACE MANY ISSUES if you don't...
you can root your phone with twrp...very easy...nothing would brake...but if you dont want root anymore just do a local update...and its done...but your bootloader may still be unlocked...but without any root or twrp...
And for backup there's option in settings it is called BACKUP XD...if you have google account...you can just tap on backup and then on android setup your apps and settings will stay...
Hey thanks for the response!
Does Google backup also save settings?
The bootloader is actually the problem I just know remembered. How do I lock that again?
The main reason I want an unrooted locked phone again is because banking apps make a fuss about this and won't work.

No, you can't do that. You cannot jump from 8.1 to 10. System update will give you an error. You can do it this way 5.1.5 (8.1) > 9.0.9 > 10.3.1

Yes it does...
And for banking apps...some may work with Magisk Hide option...you can hide your root for that specific app...and it should work fine....try it...
And if you want to lock the bootloader completely...you need to use MSMDownloadtool instead...
