Hi. Is this possible without having an sd card in your phone? if so how would it be done? I really need cell reception on my phone again :/
You should try by placing the file in Internal storage.
Does anyone know if there will be a Nougat 7.1.1 update for Axon 7 please? There is a bug in 7.0 which stops iTunes Remote from working but apparently it is fixed in 7.1.
Hello. I have A2017G. I’ve upgraded to 7.0 now have problems with network – can’t hold with network, it’s serching all the time. I wanted to downgrade but it’s impossible. I’m stuck with it.
