[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdsingle76:
Your insurance should cover anything that happens to it, including bricking it with a tripped Knox. [MENTION=3633714]AdRock02gt[/MENTION] is right that it'll void your warranty and if the representative is savvy he'll check to make sure Knox is not tripped. If it is then you can't return within the 14 days nor send it to Samsung for repair.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] euklid:
so you recommend me getting the $11 TEP from sprint?? it will cover it even if I trip knox, I have 3 days to decide..
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CCallahan:
Just my opinion but I wouldn't. If you want insurance check out SquareTrade.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DistrictDigital:

Dear community,

Would be great if someone could create this kind of module. To specify I am talking about the S5 music player. But I think it is a global 4.4 feature and only third party music players can deactivate it.

Thanks for a response :)

I'm just wondering who uses the finger scanner, so I made a poll. I use it and it worked great for me over 90% of the time, so I think i'll continue to use it. It isn't as good as Touch ID, but it's still decent enough to use it every day.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] diablo009:
I do.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] XandroidX:
I use it everyday I just wish it was a bit more reliable I have a total of three fingers recorded my index and thumb on my right hand and my index finger on my left hand
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] aooga:
TIP: You can register 30 fingers. When it asks you to swipe 10 times, you can use more than 1 finger. :good:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] iwillkillyou:
I do as well
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Gr8Danes:
I do as well. Love lastpass use with it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] aooga:
Wow seems like it's 50-50 right now. For those who don't use it, can I ask why?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] iwillkillyou:
I can answer that even though I use it. It doesn't work 100% of the time. I have to swipe my finger a couple of times. But, of course sometimes all it takes is one swipe.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] aooga:
I've found that if you vary the position of your finger just slightly when you're setting it up, it works a lot better. And I have two sets of the same finger, so maybe that's why I can get it every time.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] diablo009:
Use the first one for both thumbs and both index fingers in proper way.

Use the second one for right thumb and left index while holding it in right hand, with different swipe angles.

Use the third one for left thumb and right index while holding it in left hand, with different swipe angles.

This will give plenty of ways of swiping to enable recognition better.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] iwillkillyou:
After reading a thread last night about having multiple sets I was thinking of doing it, now with both of your Comments I'll do it.

But seriously, it's a cool little feature. I didn't think I'd like it, I have never added a passcode on any of my past phones. Not even on the first iPhone or galaxy s1
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] SeaFractor:
Use it extensively. Unlock phone, Last pass premium and PayPal.

Good stuff!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] ddizzy81:
I do
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] livito:
I like it so far, is faster than entering a password, pin or pattern. sometimes it wouldnt recognize it but I dont mind swiping my finger a couple of times.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] vvveith:
I would use it if it were more practical, like if I could link all my passwords to the scanner that would be cool, but since it only works on a few applications and is proprietary, I just don't use it enough and like to get into my phone quickly.

[HTC Rezound] pball52998:
Can you get into hboot okay? You're s-off aren't you? Have you tried flashing another recovery? Or sometimes people can't get into recovery and sometimes have to do "fastboot erase cache" without the quotes. If you can't get into recovery at all and nothing will work after trying to flash a different recovery into it, try running a RUU.

[HTC Rezound] ddrface:
yes i try it reventech guide but nothing work bootloop dont go
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Have you tried booting a recovery, not flashing it?

Download the latest recovery img file of your choice and place it in your fastboot directory on your PC, and start HBoot and Fastboot, connect to USB and type:

fastboot boot recovery.img (replace "recovery.img" with the name of the custom recovery img file)

and see if you can start recovery... if you can, wipe everything (pay attention to possible emmc/internal SD flash failures, repeat until it doesn't error out) and flash a stable ROM and see if it boots
[HTC Rezound] pball52998:
Wait. A internal EMMC failure doesn't cause a phone not to boot. On both my EVO 4G andOG Incredible have the emmc completely shot and still work perfectly. Plus I don't think you can fix a emmc internal error can you??

Sent from my Rooted HTC M8
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
emmc is just a FAT32 partition on the internal 16GB SD "card", so it is possible if the internal emmc is corrupt that it could corrupt boot/system and cause a bootloop. Since it is just a partition, unless the hardware itself gets corrupted, you can usually find a work around for it.

I have been able to correct most emmc errors in the past, sometimes but just repeated formatting in recovery (or by switching recovery, often back to Amon Ra for a short time), or by doing a full RUU. The only phone I couldn't get emmc recovered on was an old HTC my friend had, but I can't remember the model, and it would bootloop if I recall correctly.

After some time my Inc2 started losing emmc almost every time I tried to flash a new ROM, just RUU back and then flash again and it was fine until the next time I tried to do a clean flash, then repeat and all was well.
[HTC Rezound] pball52998:
Can you PM me on fixing emmc?? Because both my DINC and EVO have corrupted emmc that won't be fixed by ruu ? please A

and thank you.

Sure... Its not to tough really, will be later tonight though, just heading out the door.

yes i trying boot recovery on fastboot but i cant into recovery U_U
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Wait... so you are in fastboot mode on the phone, meaning in the display it says FASTBOOT USB in red, you connect to the USB and type "fastboot boot recovery.img" and you get nothing, no green bar on the phone, no error or anything?

What is the result of "fastboot devices" when in Fastboot mode on the phone?
[HTC Rezound] ddrface:
yes i got green bar but cant boot to recovery
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
I am not sure what to say... Can you take a picture of your Hboot screen and post it please?
[HTC Rezound] ddrface:
View attachment 2776081
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Unlock again and try to boot a recovery, or get TWRP/PhilZ zip and flash via PH98IMG.zip mode... With a relocked boot loader your recovery is locked from some fastboot commands...
[HTC Rezound] ddrface:
i flased philz via ph98img but didnt work reboot and show screen white wiht lettes HTC and later turn all black and reboot automatic :(
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
But can you get into recovery now?

If not I am not sure what else to try... without being able to RUU or access recovery, and we have tried almost everything else there is to access it, there isn't much else that can be done that I can think of.
[HTC Rezound] ddrface:
the battery can influence in the boot or not, can falsh RUU but not fix my problem :(

i cant find a RUU.zip i didnt try it, just RUU.exe
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Battery really doesn't effect boot.

The EXE is preferred method of RUUing, it formats partitions and restores most "odd" problems like this.

Something isn't right though... I understand not being able to start recovery on the phone, that can be caused by any number of issues, but if you unlocked and can't boot recovery via fastboot, I'm honestly stumped why you can't recovery to start.

Have you tried taking a stockish ROM like one of the stock roms based on 3.14.605.12 (or the full ROM ruu zip file) and flash it via PM98IMG.zip method?
[HTC Rezound] ddrface:
if you have a rom ruu.zip send a link please :( i cant find it

yes very very strange my problem i know it :(

Make sure to verify MD5, and see S-Off instructions at bottom of article... If none of the mirrors work, let me know, I can probably drop box it.
[HTC Rezound] ddrface:
:crying: all link is down ._.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Try this one, it should be the one that matches your current Hboot: 3.14.605.12

or try the 4.3.605.2 Global Mode leak, it was a little more rock solid
[HTC Rezound] ddrface:
i flashed that ph98img but the bootloop dont go pfff

i think i dont not maybe the internal partition are bad :(

Thanks! I'm sure this will make a lot of Droid users happy.
[Droid Ultra General] sendbeer:
Stupid question. What was the home button bug? I use Nova and never noticed anything funny with pressing home.
[Droid Ultra General] akellar:
If you hit home in an app it would take you back to the launcher home screen instead of the screen you were previously on. Seems a very small thing to me but it apparently drove some people crazy.
[Droid Ultra General] sendbeer:
Oh, that's why it doesn't do that on my nexus! I prefer it that way myself. Guess I'll have to load up my old version and maybe email the dev to see if we could have that as an option.
[Droid Ultra General] xDroid4Lifex:
If you were on your home screen in an app and hit the home key it would open up the page selection instead of going back to home. It was a double action bug. The software thought you were hitting the key twice. If you aren't on your home screen in an app and hit the home key it brings you back to the previous screen then hit the home key again for home, that's how its intended to work.
[Droid Ultra General] doogald:
Another problem is that in many third party launchers, there is a specific function that can happen if you hit home while already on the default home screen. Most good launchers will have a way to turn this off, but often the functionality is useful - say, it can show all of your home screens in smaller images at the same time, so you can choose one without having to slide to one that is many screens away. The Aviate launcher toggles a particular function on and off when you press home, so, on the Droids, it now quickly toggles back and forth, making pressing home useless.

It doesn't drive me crazy, but I do find it mildly annoying that I can't go back to my default home when I'm in Nova launcher. I'm actually more annoyed that it's taken five-plus months (and counting) to get it fixed.

First of all this is not my work but I would love to share it

I bricked my Gpad once but LGMobile Support Tool does not help at all.

This tool might work to most LG Device

Be warn the KDZ that your going to use will be auto deleted so make another copy

LG does not want us to use KDZ so we must install it offline.

Please temporarily disable any Adblock addon in your browser and I recommend to check your host file

C:Windows\system32\drivers\etc\host

Delete the LG Mobile Tool folder (STUPID)

Show Hidden Files in Folder Option

C:ProgramData\LGMOBILEAX

Replace it with one in the attachment

Then place all the Updater Offline in a single folder (very important)

Read the Instruction: it comes with link to know more about it.

Your Anti Virus may warn you about http.exe but its just a server to fool the Software updater (Use by the script temporarily until the end of the process)

The script will automatically guide you to the end

God Bless to the person who made this

So please LG don't to be like Apple.

This Lock Bootloader, Lousy Sofware Updater, Harder to Root. For what? To make people hate your products? So please stop what your doing and let people enjoy it.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aviary:
Hello everyone

I just got a note 2 off mining and it's locked to Bell. I want to unlock it to work with other carriers. I know that there is a way to self unlock but you need an older version of android. My note is 4.3 and I read that trying to downgrade will get my device bricked. So, being new and unexperienced at this, can someone recommend me what to do? Is there a safe way to downgrade from 4.3 to 4.1.1 or should I just pay someone to unlock it? If the latter, is there a really cheap online unlocking for Canadian carriers?

Thank you for your help :)

:? :? :? Just a notification of some strange happenings with bluetooth handsfree -

I have been having problems with connecting the bluetooth handsfree Earpiece since installing TT6 - have tried uninstalling it, and then bluetooth handsfree works fine - it also works fine with TT5.21. - reinstalled TT6 and managed (with help) to get it all working from the 512MB SD card ( just 2 main folders on there:- GB plus Western Europe main roads map & Program Files with everything else in there),

everything was working Ok until I tried to connect to tomtom for a traffic update via GPRS, - I kept getting a message saying couldn't connect to server and to check GPRS settings on device or soft reset, which i did and re inserted all the GPRS settings.

Then I could connect via GPRS to get traffic updates - but it was impossible to connect the bluetooth handsfree again. Strange ain't it !!

I don't have any problems with the bluetooth GPS which is a Globalsat 339.

Apparently the version of TT6 that is available at the moment is only a pre-release and so has quite a few bugs in it - best to wait until the retail version is available. - when it is working I have found it to be really good - so without the bugs it should be great.

If anybody has any ideas on fixing this problem, let me have your input, i'm willing to give it a go, but i'm not very technical so need simple instructions. :wink: cheers all!
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] weatheryoko:
You may want to...

Uninstall your ILLEGAL copy of TomTom. That would solve your problem. Then you can go an PURCHASE a legitimate copy when its released and see how a LEGITIMATE copy works on your 2i instead of using a PIRATED beta version.

It's just a thought but I'm not too bright......
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] pistebeast:
Why???

But the original TT5.21 was also an illegal - cracked copy and it worked on there!

Why pay for it when you can get it for free.

No you're not are you - maybe it's a culture thing!! :wink:

TOM TOM 6 - Bluetooth Headset Problems - SOLVED!!

Sorry to upset Weatheryoko :roll: but i think i've solved the connection problem(with help from anonymous) :wink: I Hope this helps someone else with similar problems. Downloaded Broadcom 3900 cab from wiki site/Blue Angel, to overwrite files already installed on my XDA11i - in case any were corrupt, this didn't make any difference. Then downloaded A2DP cab from Alpine Upgrading forum - put on to SD card - run it on XDA - soft reset - set up pairing with Headset - at first didn't seem to work but looked in active connections and icon was there tapped status and it was connected - icon showing on top bar, tried turning on and off few times - made phone call - started up tomtom 6 - all seems to be working ok. I haven't tried another soft reset yet as that was where the trouble started before - so far so good - I now have a fully working XDA11i with tomtom 6, all the maps and whistles and bells and connectivity to my BT Headset :lol: I hope this helps if you are having bluetooth headset problems, try A2DP. PLEASE DO NOT ASK ME FOR TOMTOM 6 LINKS THEY ARE OUT THERE - SEEK AND YOU SHALL FIND!

Cheers all - pistebeast

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Br4nd3n:
Am I the only one who doesn't seem to care about root? The reason I've rooted and flashed previous devices was for better gaming & speed optimization, battery life and the experience of change & customization; of course.

However, as odd as it seems to say I have went weeks now not even thinking of root or custom roms on this device.

TouchWiz is faster than ever, gaming is faster than ever (the CPU and GPU speak for themselves..), and everything's polished. The battery is superb! I dont even charge my S5 somedays with moderate gaming.. All I did was a few standard TW tweaks.. disabled animations in DM and threw on Nova launcher.

Next time around I will go with an unlocked phone (probably the next flagship Google phone), but for now I really enjoy the stock and untampered version of this phone.

Anyone else on the same page?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cerobles1:
U might be the only one. Root is more than that. It opens up a door for applications like Titanium Backup. Yes, Touchwiz is awesome nowadays but pure AOSP can never be beat
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Br4nd3n:
Titanium backup is useless for me, all I ever backup is photos and that's easily done with my Google account. I have no reasons to greenify on this phone, no reason to debloat (doesn't slow my phone down), all I miss is xposed and rom toolbox, but even those aren't much to me anymore. I have my nexus 7 (2013) for my AOSP needs :) I actually enjoy TW on my phone.. weird, I know.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] natefish:
I care very much about it since Samsung decided to disable so many things. The ability for 3rd party file managers to fly from internal to external memory (or from a cloud to external, which is what I really want), lock screen widgets, the lack of available memory--they list goes on the more I use this phone.

Sent from my GS5
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] KennyG123:
Actually those are Google limitations brought on by KitKat, not Samsung limitations. KitKat has blocked the 3rd party write ability to SD cards.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] barondebxl:
Couldnt disagree more about AOSP. Dont want it, dont need it otherwise i would have gone with a nexus.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] stoobie-doo:
Partially. My S3 is my work phone, and if Samsung ever gets around to releasing the 32GB version instead of futzing around with colors, I'll likely pull the trigger on the S5. My employer will be implementing AirWatch soon and cutting off sync to rooted phones, so the lack of root will mean less to me.

I will hate to give up, though Titanium Backup - both for its ability to backup and freeze apps; Greenify - to try tame misbehaved apps; my S3 gets the world's worst battery life, Bettery Batter Stats - to try to diagnose said awful battery life, and Directory Bind - to work around some of the limits of the 16GB space on my G3.

I'd like to be able to delete instead of freeze worthless Samsung apps when Samsung shuts their services down and AT&T apps that I will never, ever, ever use.

Give me a way to backup my phone, safely uninstall non-core functionality, and make my battery suck less, and I can live without root.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] C0derbear:
I also don't care about root, for myself, on my primary device.

I'd rather the added stability and security from knowing the various apps, and myself, are locked out of ranges of potentially harmful behavior. For me, for my phone, it's no. 1 a tool that I needs to be reliable.

Way far and gone in 3rd place would be something that needs root.

Like other's stated, my data/content is backed up separately, and google play has my back on the apps, so I don't need any other backup solution.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] peaster3:
Root would be nice, but the S5 seems to have hit the mark as far as I'm concerned. It is not perfect, but I am very satisfied. Even if a root method is found, I'm not so sure I would be doing it.

As far as my need to flash something...well...that's what my N7 is for. lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] brivette007:
As much as I want root, I am just as happy without it. I've had zero problems with battery life or lag.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] eortizr:
Obviously I care a lot, today I sold the S5 and just got an M8, having an Andorid without root is the same as having an iPhone or WindowsPhone. I like to be able to do whatever I want with my device.
