How do I resolve this? Am I creating a problem or?
The other day I used the side https://www.windowsphone.com/en-US/find and tried to give functions Lost your phone? We can find it for you! Everything was ok! After two days I checked again, but now we give to the picture (windows.jpg). Can someone send me where to look for the programs of something or I 'm screwed
I never booked marked it, just signed into my live.com account clicked on "Devices" from the top left when you hover the mouse over "Windows Live" and it should show up there. But this is what the site shows up to me as now:
https://devices.live.com/
Is it possible that when I check how it works ( ring, lock, or erase your phone ) that I messed something and now you can not use that option.
in order for this picture when I go to Change Windows Phone 7 setting of switch me to that previous file
Oops...
Something went wrong and we can not show you this page right now.
Go to windowsphone.com
Is it possible that I am something in the phone or in checks or something messed up...
Oh, right. You do have to enable it on your phone first.
Settings > Find My Phone
You also have to have a live (ie hotmail or msn) account on the phone.
But you also might need to re-add it on the live.devices.com. I know after I flashed it, it didn't recognize my phone so I just hit "add a phone" on the devices page. It sends a text to the phone and then you should be good.
Hey, after I installed Rataplan v6.0 and tried to activate "Find my phone" in settings > find my phone, it says "Re're still setting up Find My Phone. This will take another moment or two to finish. Come back later to make sure it's been set up, then visit windowsphone.com to use it." It's been saying this since I installed the ROM. What should I do?
EDIT: Found the solution
"Long back story:
Here's what I was previously experiencing:
In Settings, it would list find my phone and have the subtitle "Setup Needed." When I tapped this, it would take me to the find my phone options and immediately display a modal dialog that said it would take a few more minutes to set everything up. When I hit OK, it would back me out of the find my phone settings. This left me completely stuck and no amount of rebooting or fiddling seemed to fix it.
Just now, while I was grabbing another phone to take a picture of the dialog to post here, my phone went to sleep. When I woke it up, the dialog was dismissed and I was in the find my phone options. I checked the first option, Connect to these features faster (may use more battery). I then hit back and the subtitle under find my phone reported connected. I logged into windowsphone.com and my phone is now listed. I simultaneously also received an email from windowsphone.com welcoming me to my new phone. There must be a bug that results in that dialog being dismissed when the phone goes to sleep, and that bug allowed me to toggle the first option, which re-attempted connecting my phone to windowsphone.com.
Anyway, long story short, if you are stuck in this boat, try these steps to work around them:
Set your lock screen timeout to the shortest available duration (1 min?)
Go to settings and tap find my phone.
When the dialog pops up telling you to hold on, set your phone down and leave it be until the screen turns off and the phone goes to sleep.
Turn your phone back on. You should be in the find my phone options now.
Check the first setting, Connect to these features faster (may use more battery).
Back out and verify it says connected and login to windowsphone.com and verify your phone is listed." - found this on windowsphone site, posted by someone. Not my solution.
few days ago during phone calls the screen started to black out - after 1 hoursof first blackout, screen started to show weird behavior, screen was being touched on random areas - i turned on show touches from dev mode and it showed random multi touches on top right corner of scree. after few minutes the screen turned black and since then i havent seen any sort of display on my note 3. i tried.
1. removed battery - let it rest for 15 minutes - connected back - phone turned on fine i could hear all sounds and notifications even receive calls if i swiped at correct screen area, However no display
2. tried to access the phone in adb but it wont show in devices even though usb debugging is enabled and all samsung drivers are correctly configured.
3. made backup of all the files on phone using kies.
4. Rooted the phone and tried to access recovery mode but vol up + home + power just turns on the phone.
5. currently the phone connects to pc as a media device with usb debugging enabled.
i think if i am able to flash firmware again it might resolve the issue, but so far i haven't been able to find latest stock builds that i can flash using odin since i cannot do anything in recovery mode (no display)
Can someone guide me on how i can get the display back ? is there any way to access the screen using a standalone pc app without the need to install any app on the phone ? can it be hardware related issue ? the phone never dropped, im a very careful user. screen is scratchless and phone is in perfect condition physically. Any help or guidance will be appreciated.
PS. Its my first time posting a thread on a forum, i hope i didnt break any rules. I searched alot on forums for someone having similar situation.

2. To access via adb you have to grant the permission, once you connect phone in adb with developer mode (usb debugging) enabled, a pop-up will come asking for granting permission., once you grant then only you can acces it in adb mode.
*Sorry buddy, i don'y know about any app that can "access the screen using a standalone pc". (Google for it, You may found)
I guess it must be hardware issues,
But you can try out this:
Download the latest firmware from SamMobile or from SamsungUpdates website, and flash using ODIN.
Before downloading firmware make sure you download the correct firmware for your region (CSC)
If didn't worked, it must be a hardware issue.
Sorry.
Phone was in usb debugging mode before screen disappeared, now i cannot see the device in adb mode maybe because i need to change the connection mode to mtp, i cant do that , theres no display :S
Hey guys,
I had to reinstall my Note 8 yesterday, with the fact that (like many other note 8 users) my google smartlock isnt working anymore.
I had it working by accident, out of the blue the smartlock menu opened on my phone and let me choose my trusted locations.
Can`t figure out why it popped up, but it just did once without that i triggerd it.
Anyhow,i reinstalled my phone yesterday and its not working anymore so i really want it to work again.
I did some research this morning to find out which service/activity has to be opened to show the smart lock menu.
I found a that a few activities from the google play services open up parts/options from the smartlock menu, but the actual menu to select the option to add trusted places or activate the body detection.
The body detection can be activated manually if you use a activity launcher.
There has to be a way to activate/open up the menu for the smart lock settings, we only have to find it.
Anyone has an idea how we can manage it?
Any idea`s are welcome, maybe we can figure it out together.
I found out how it works, not by opening a service or an activity but how to trigger the smartlock menu.
First of all you need to activate google smartlock as trusted agent.
Then you go to google maps and set your home location, once you did that you have to unlock your phone multiple times.
I didnt count how much times you need to unlock your phone, but its a guess around 30 a 40 times could be some more could be some less.
You have to do it in your house location, while unlocking there is some kind of counter which counts how many times you unlocked your phone in your house.
After a while when your unlocking your phone the smartlock notification will pop up and tells you that you have unlocked your phone for in the house area for a dozen times.
It will allow you to click on it and set your location as trusted place.
Also it allows you to enable body protection, trusted devices, and trusted voice.
It happend to me yesterday while using the phone for a couple of times and i had to unlock it for a couple of times.
Be carefull, when you extit the menu there is no option to get it back again.
Well, only the next morning because the phone will prompt a message that the lock has been enable for not using the phone for 4 hours.
Thats the only time after the first time that you can change your settings.
Hope you guys are helped with this information.
Trusted Places.
Been playing with this this morning in the aftermath of flashing Lineage onto a Moto G phone and Nexus 7 tablet (great ROM BTW and my first foray into phone hacking !)
Despite appearing to set up correctly I found TP didn't actually work but I think I've come up with a fix which has worked on both the above devices plus a stock Sony Xperia Z2 and my OH's Nexus so that's 4 for 4 !
1. Go to Trusted Places
2. If you've already added a place then long touch it and edit, if not touch Add Trusted Place
3. When the map pops up touch it then on the full screen place a finger anywhere and move the map around under the pin a bit then position the blue dot under the X below the pin.
4. Now touch Update and it should come back with the exact address instead of GPS coordinates.
5. Now go back to Trusted Places and touch the location and check that it's turned on
That's it, you may get a warning message the first time you unlock afterwards but beyond that a simple up swipe from the lock screen should open it.
AAAAAA

Hi,
It only gave me On Body Detection and I enabled it but it doesn't work! Is there really no way to prompt it again? It really pisses me off, no Smart Lock in setting whatever i do... I just want my Dumbphone and Dumbwatch to work together so I don't have to unlock the phone 89789 times a day. I updated the Play Store Services, turned Trusted Agent on and off, rebooted the phone 1951951 times... I've been googling this for months and no solution... It's unbelievable to me that this issues persists for years and I can bet thousands of people wrote complaints to both Google and Huawei! And the worst part is, it used to work and it just stopped and disappeared for no reason at all... I don't want to root my phone as it is still under warranty and I don't want to lose it...
Thank you for any even potential help! Have a great day!
Hello,
As i attempted to root my Galaxy Tab A (SM-T580), it came up with the following message..."custom binary frp lock". In an attempting to repair that error, this error come up..."An error has occurred while updating the device software".
Can anyone please give me a fix for this. My tablet is on 6 months old & i'd like to savage it if i can. any help is deeply & truly appreciated.

I found this on xda from someone else with the SM-T580:

It's very frustrating because I need this tablet working in order to take notes in my college classes. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated, thanks.
I was having the same problem, but i figured it out last night. Without OTG cable, Odin, SideSync, Realtek, or a PC. I'd been messing with it for 3 days, so Im not 100% sure of what everything said and i'm definitely not going to relock it to try an duplicate it, but if you've been all over youtube then you've seen methods that require a wifi connection, (I found it easiest to use my phone's wifi hotspot) you disconnect your hotspot or unplug your router immediately when it says checking for software update, which appears after clicking accept on the privacy policy. (Again it's easier to just turn off the hotspot than to unplug your router" When done correctly it souls say "couldn't sign in" and then the next screen will either ask you to set up time and date or it asks you to add a name to the tablet (can't remember which is first) then asks to set up a screen lock passcode or pattern (set up either one), after doing all this 100 times I noticed it asked me if i wanted to set up a IMAP/POP3 account to use within the Gmail app (which I'd been skipping) but for some reason it didn't give me this option every time. You have to be connected to the internet for the next part so if you haven't already go ahead and turn your hotspot back on or router and add any email address other than a Gmail (I used my yahoo account) then follow through with the setup into it takes you back to the very first screen you see when you turned on the tablet. Now just turn the tablet screen off and back on (just the screen, do not power down the tablet) put in your lockscreen password and now In the top right corner there should be a little yellow icon which lets you switch users (if you see this, you've got it beat) now create a new user signing into your Gmail and Samsung accounts (if you don't have one, create a new account) once you're done with that it will take you to the home screen, pull down the notification bar and go into settings (notice since you're on an added user you can't factory reset the device) find "Users", and then switch back to the owner profile, it then tells you that you still need to set up the tablet to continue. Once i clicked okay it now let me pull down the notification bar to access settings, but this time you're on the owners account so you can factory reset it, go to "Back up and Reset" and then go ahead and factory reset it again. If done correctly the FRP will no longer be on the tablet. I know this probably sounds extremely complex so if you have any questions feel free to message me and Ill give you my email and phone number and ill help walk you through it
I've had my LG V20 for over a year now... it has been working fine until this morning, when I've started getting a popup saying "lg ims has stopped", about every 10 seconds.
I've searched around Google for a solution to this, but cannot execute any of the solutions that they mention...
1. I have not installed any new apps on my phone in weeks now, so that's not the issue.
2. Many solutions say to call 277634#*# to open a config menu, then open 'IMS Settings' on this menu and change 'IP Version' to IPV4...
Unfortunately, while I can get to the config menu, if I open 'IMS Settings' menu, this error pops up, and switches me back to the previous menu...
This is nuts!!! Is there any way to actually fix this, other than factory reset, which I *really* don't want to do!!!!
Please Help??
I have the exact same problem. I just did a factory reset. Once I got to the part about adding recommended apps, the darn "Unfortunately, LG IMS has stopped" message started popping up again. So, from my experience, doing the factory reset does not help eliminate this problem. Now trying to figure out what to try next.

Did this just start, yesterday or today??
I'm wondering if LG has actually discontinued some service that the phone relies on??
I'm thinking of getting another V20 from ebay, because I *really* love this phone!! But I don't want to end up with another phone having the same issue...

A couple hours ago. As you have probably seen, the problem is not new. Would love to know why both of us were affected today.
I'm currently trying variations of what I've seen on this page:
What is LG IMS and How to Fix the “Unfortunately, LG IMS Has Stopped” issue? – The Shared Web
Okay, here's an update... I switched back to an old phone, then powered up my V20, and this error no longer occurred... I also was able finally to get to the 'IMS Settings' menu (after dialing 277634#*# as recommended at all sites for this issue)...
I tried each of these settings (recommended by various sources):
> set IP Version to IPV4V6 (default is IPV6V4)
> set IP Version to IPV6
> disable VoLTE
In each of these cases, once I inserted a valid SIM and rebooted, this error message began occurring again.
So my best guess at this point, is that LG has simply disabled something on the V20, and I just won't be able to use it any more, at least with MetroPCS/TMobile...
I replaced my 12 year old wireless access point this a few days ago. Thought maybe the new WAP with Wi-Fi 6 was causing the problem. Put my old WAP back. Reset the phone again. Message started again when I got to loading apps.
Found this video that was posted today about the problem. Already has almost 21k views. One of the commenters says he contacted LG and LG is supposedly working on it and will push out a fix in 24 to 48 hours.

Whoa !! Thanks for the update!! I sure hope this works...
I found this a few minutes ago. I also have a v20 and this worked for me, so hopefully it works for you as well. It says to put into airplane mode, which for me did not stop the pop ups. Removing the sim card works, but once I put it back in, the error occured until I re-followed these steps. So unfortunately, you will just have to put up with the pop-ups while doing this. It's been about 15 minutes and I haven't gotten the message, so it looks like I'm in the clear. Hopefully you will be, too.
Set your LG phone to airplane mode to prevent the error message from popping up over and over.
Head to Settings -> Apps & Notifications -> App info.
Tap the 3-dot menu in the top right corner and enable show system.
Look for com.lge.ims.rcsprovider in the list and tap it.
In the detailed overview for this app, hit the following three buttons in order: Clear cache, clear storage/data, and force stop. (Depending on the Android version on your phone, some of these three options may be found under storage information.)
You may have to repeat step 5 above multiple times for the problem to fix itself.
And the clear data/cache was under storage for me.

Just to save others some trouble, please note that this video, itself, just repeats the same non-working solutions that everyone else suggested, none of which work, including factory reset.
However, the comments *do* appear to have further useful discussions of this subject... so we now can be sure that this is an LG issue... hopefully we'll have a solution in a day or two...
Thank you again, @kcclark99, for finding and sharing this video with all of its comments!!

Just as a side note to this post: placing my phone in airplane mode did *not* prevent this message from repeatedly appearing... the only thing that worked was removing the sim card.

Same here. The only problem is that removing the sim card while doing the method that I found was pointless, as once I put the sim card back in, the problem came back. Though once O followed the method with the sim card in, it went away and has stayed away. For now, at least. I assume turning off the phone will reset whatever I did, and I may have to do it again.
Still no fix for this from T-Mobile or LG.

Well, this *sort of* works with mine... however, every time I reboot the phone, I have to go through this sequence again...
That is not entirely a desirable solution !!
Later note: okay, I didn't read the original post clearly enough... @Arthilios already noted this issue...
Oh well, I can probably live with that!!
Putting the phone in airplane mode renders the phone basically useless. As soon as you turn on Wifi while in airplane mode, the error message pops back up. Can't switch to AT&T either because the T-Mobile's V20 doesn't work on AT&T anymore since AT&T turn off 3G service back in Feb 2022 even though the V20 is VoLTE capable. Another solution is pull the sim card out and just use it like a phone with blacklisted IMEI. LG said they're working on it but I doubt they're gonna push out an update for this 7 year old phone. Maybe they can make an app to take care of this. I think it's time to throw in the towel on LG and get other brands.

I want a phone that I can swap in a charged battery. When I looked at what was available two years ago, I found the V20 was still the best available, IMO. Current phones with that ability were low end models.
