Hi,
I just received this little beast (firmware B003) and I have some questions:
-Using the huawei launcher i'm not able to rotate the screen to landscape, I have the automatic function activated but it only works when i'm using apps or the settings from the pad.
-The "Auto-align" and "Shake" functions are also not working, they are both selected but nothing happens when I uninstall an app (there is still am empty space) or when I shake the pad.
-According to what I read on the forums I need to unlock the bootloader in order to be able to root it, is there a way to "relock the bootloader"? I bought mine on amazon and I have a full european warranty, I would like to keep it if possible.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
Best regards
Hi, where did you get your 701L ?
Yes, you can relock the bootloader, but system info keeps displaying the wrong hardware specs even after flashing the only available stock ROM download (russian but can be switched to german and other languages).
Long story short : it's absolute crap, better send it back and buy something else.

Just purchased a stock HTC One S and I cant seem to get the dialer keys (7) and (0) to work. Once on the voice mailbox it wont press key 7 to erase, or the 0 when inputing an area code per sei. Also, it seems that certain area of the touch screen is not responsive while trying to select options on the setting panes. Has anyone come across this? Any input would be greatly appreciated. Yes I already did a thorough research but wasn't able to come up with much. Thanks

hm, maybe try a factory reset and clean the display.
if it still doesn't work I would suggest you to get your one s replaced.

I tried that. Still acting up. Is it possible it's something I could fix by rooting? Thanks

it doesn't make sense rooting your phone to solve the problem if the display is broken.
its like, trying to replace your monitor by installing an update
but you can install the recent suitable RUU for your mobile from footballs thread and if the problem still apears your display is definetly broken

I guess i'll do a search on a RUU and how it might be pertinent.

STOP don't do anything. If your phone has a hardware defect you don't want to void your warranty by unlocking the bootloader. Contact HTC or whoever sold you the phone and try to get a replacement.

Is it just the dialer or does that part of the touch screen not work anywhere else? If the actual touch sensors work elsewhere (IE: homescreen, keyboard, etc...) it is NOT a hardware problem. It is a software issue. Make sure you have the latest update installed (different versions based on carriers/countries). If the issue persists (again, if it is NOT a touch sensor problem) go ahead and root it or install a custom ROM.
EDIT: I must have skipped that sentence in your post. You obviously have a touch sensor problem. Go ahead and request a new device (if possible, depending where you bought it) or send it in to HTC. You can figure that one out on your own; we're adults here...
I just got my smart cover and it worked flawlessly right away. Now I am wondering if there is some way to configure which info shows in there, change background, add pages, widgets and so on.
I can´t find anything at all for this in settings. I am in B003 firmware (GEM-702L) so I hope newer firmware has some settings for this...

The only option I have on b109 and b110 on my 703L is to turn Smart Cover on or off. I don't see any other options.

Unfortunatelly there is no any options in my GEM-701L B003, I'm sad, because I loved it in my previous LG Flex.

When an app asks for permissions, Allow and Deny options show up (regardless if for storage, or camera, etc.) but the allow button does not work. Deny works fine. So far i have unlocked the bootloader via Huawei website method (i guess you call that official) and flashed twrp. I have not rooted the phone yet (getting to that, but one problem at a time) and this is the first one.
I also saw someone else ask, but with now answer. Is there a way to get rid of the splash scren about the phone being unlocked and not trustable, press power button again to boot?
Do you have an special theme activated? Use the standard theme and try again
My 1st question to you is... when the window prompts, do you flag the option "don't ask to me again" or not? Because if yes, the only option avalaible becomes the "deny" one. This mechanism confused me too some time ago, when i wasn't understanding why it was blacked out; Android takes your flag as an "what a bore, just shut up and go **** ya' self leavin' me alone" answer, so it automatically deactivate the possibility to let it pass even one more time. If you didn't checked the flag, i have another question for you. Did you maybe recently made an update OTA, or with an update package found online? If the 2nd answer is what u've done, do a check for being sure that you have updated the phone with the correct package model. (BLN-21, BLN-22, ecc.) If neither this is your case, begin to tell us something more 'bout your phone configuration and start to think to backup your data and do a factory reset for eliminate this weird issue.
For the question of yours about the Nag screen (the splash one, for being clear) at the moment there is nothing that we can do to avoid it to pop out; just skip it pressing immediately the power button, is the best advice that i can do so far
I'll attempt to answer all these at once since I just got home from work. I wouldn't believe rooting the phone would cause this issue, but the problem happened before i unlocked the bootloader so I think that rules that out. I do not use a special theme, but I do use squarehome launcher for my phone, not the standard android launcher. Problem there is, the problem occurs with either launcher being active. And theme wise, I have a 3-d live aquarium for a background (which if turned off and just a static wallpaper, the same behavior occurs). As far as the phone update goes, it was an OTA update from 6 to 7, so still using stock, nothing sideloaded or flashed (yet). My data is all backed up via My backup pro, and doing a full backup with TWRP onto OTG is not a problem. I prefer not throwing in the towel, since setting up squarehome perfectly is a pain in the ass, but if it has to happen, it is better than manually setting permissions for every app that needs them. Not sure what a screenshot would do, think of any app asking for permission to use phone storage, both the allow button and the deny button visible (in white, nothing grey) and allow doesn't respond where deny responds fine. and then i have to go in manually and grant the permission after the fact. I suppose I could just root my phone and give that a whirl, seems some bloatware needs to be removed anyway, and i have the SU sitting on my hard drive already. Thanx for the responses, and let me know what you may have come up with before I just factory reset it which as mentioned, I am dreading doing.

Hi, so you have unlocked bootloader but not rooted? This is maybe problem, you need to have rooted phone if you have unlocked bootloader for fully using phone. Can you post some screeshots?

Well, I didn't think that would be the answer, but you, sir were right. I rooted my phone and it seemed to have fixed the problem. I don't believe I made any other change whatsoever. Thank you very much. Glad I tried it anyway as you suggested even though I didn't think it would be the answer. I am not above saying thank you, and I was wrong. Kudos. Maybe this will help someone else. Good thing is, I planned on rooting it anyway, and you just kicked me in the pants to do it.
Rooted but allow button is still not activated
Hello guys,
I wanted to activate app twin so I rooted my phone BLN-L21 android 7.0
Allow button still deactivated.
Also the boot screen that asks to press power button still exist.
I noticed that if I activate whatsapp twin it won't work simultaneously .
I.e : when you open whatsapp you get all missed calles & messeges.
Also I was able to download themes through themes app ,but now it just views the local themes.
Note: superSu is installed.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thank you
Well, I think this is not related to OP (or at least partially), but when unlocking bootloader after setting up SD card as the default storage can break some things, like default themes.
Try to restore your firmware, and then unlock the bootloader.
If successful, you can now set up SD card as default storage.

Its happened to me before i just wiped the phone. I even sometimes cant click install when installing an apk unless i lock and unlock the screen.
So, I can't find the settings to set up face unlock. I thought it was a feature it was supposed to have. While I prefer the fingerprint scanner, I've gotten used to using my face to unlock at work.
Also, does Google assistant works for anyone with the screen locked? My old phone worked. This one is supposedly better.
Big disappointment so far.

Your totally right. Where is face unlock? I've totally forgotten this feature. Doesn't seem to be implemented yet. Assistant doesn't work with screen locked.
Its in "Settings" -> "Lock screen and password" -> "Add face data". I have that on the 256 version. MIUI 9.5.

Global Rom?
Because I only have this.
Im pretty sure im on Chinese rom.
I use face unlock on chinese rom since day one. don't know if it's available on official global rom or xiaomi.eu rom. is it?
Hi
Just set INDIA as your main country and the face unlock option will appear in settings. Realy i don't understand why Xiaomi block this future for the others countries.
I've the last Global Rom Stable Vers.
If you don't have faceunlock just go to root directory/cust/cust and delete the files in it and reboot. There is region specific stuff stored and if you delete it you will have all features. Source

You're right, this works.
But I can't change my region permanently because of time zone issues.

You can set manually your time zone .. I’ve make this simple change and works . We hope that Xiaomi release a rom without this stupid limitation . I’m wait that my bootloader unlock counter will expire in 14 days and I will flash another rom.

I am from the Philippines using an unlocked T Mobile V60. After reading this post, I checked the update in settings and saw this too. I am not sure I want to press the button though. I'll wait for braver souls to try it first I guess.
I like it so far. Even snappier. Mic and camera controls are nice.

I just found the problem: I had all animations to 0 in developer options. They need to be on at least .5 for share and edit of screenshots.
I was unable to type using any keyboard when using Naver Whale browser. Other browsers worked fine though. I had to manually update Naver Whale browser to enable typing again. This only happened after upgrading to 12.
Hi,
i have a t-mobile v60. i checked the system update page and i can see it but the download will not work. can anyone please send me the link to download the update so i can manually flash my phone?
I just got bought a used v60 TMobile variant and I'm trying to get it unlocked for my carrier here in Canada....I tried one site and they were unable to provide an unlock code (possibly the original owner didn't pay their bill). The IMEI comes up clean here when I ran it but I may be forced to have a remote unlock from what appears to be a reputable company online. They want to flash the v600vm kdz to unlock it.
It has android 12 update ready to download but I held off because
1. I don't know if it will affect being able to get it unlocked or flash the other variant firmware
2. I wanted to wait to see if there are issues with android 12 on it.
But I'm wondering if it's at all possible the android 12 firmware is no longer locked?
Any suggestions for my particular situation?
Has anyone else had camera problems since the android 12 update. The camera settings menu has dissapeared.
Anyone get display not registering movements/taps?
I thought that this was an issue with the drawing over other apps functionality that A12 has been cracking down on (Tasker, Pixel Filter, etc.), but even disabling/removing the aforementioned apps, this still happens intermittently, which renders that phone useless randomly. No matter how many times I lock/try to unlock the phone (via fingerprint), the screen just does not register taps/swipes...
And yes, this happened from A11-A12 upgrade, and is still present after doing a factory reset on A12.
I did a FDR and I still have several bugs.

Can you be more specific? Are you in the photo or video mode for example? Have you tried deleting the cache (and/or data) of the camera app, and trying again?
EDIT: Are you using battery saver mode perhaps? I know when you are using extreme battery saver (or whatever it's called), camera app becomes real basic, and there is no settings menu.

Smart Lock notification was stuck in the settings menu, Bluetooth initial connection bug, when a folder is created to group apps and you click the plus to add + select the apps you want and click done, they are not added. These are the initial ones I've noticed. I've had a few times where I went to go back to a certain screen and it studders. Google Map when it's small cause you have to take a call or go to something else and try to click the square box won't maximize, you have to go to the app icon and select it. I do run Google bets apps. These apps didn't give me issues prior to update though.
