[Asus ZenWatch] BlastTyrantKM:
At least the heart rate monitor isn't on 24/7 with no option to turn it off like the Moto360. This is one of the watch's selling points, IMO. I couldn't care less if my watch has a heart rate monitor. But since you can't seem to buy a watch that doesn't have one, whether it gives accurate readings or not, at least I can just not use it and forget it's there. Useless feature anyway, even if it is working properly. When you're working strenuously your pulse increases, when you're resting it's decreased. What deference does it make if you know the precise rate?
[Asus ZenWatch] panamakevin:
I agree that the Wellness app seems to be more accurate than the Google Fit app. I still want to test out the RunKeeper app to see what it's interface and heartbeat recording is like. It took me a while but I found I get my best readings by resting my index finger on the bottom bezel below the watch... So far, it seems to be the most reliable way for me to get a reading.
[Asus ZenWatch] Atomic Virus:
Would you recommend to buy the watch if I am looking for a smartwatch?
[Asus ZenWatch] CSX321:
It's still a good choice, and I don't regret getting mine. If you want to spend less than $200, get the Asus ZenWatch or the Moto 360, depending on which shape you like. If you want to spend more, I think you should also consider the Sony Smartwatch 3, the LG G Watch Urbane and the Huawei Watch. Also, there will probably be a new Moto 360 out in the coming months.

---------- Post added at 12:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:38 PM ----------

I recently installed an app called Cardiograph, that I've found a lot easier to get a good reading with than with Wellness or Fit.
[Asus ZenWatch] Kermit33:
2 days ago when trying to get my heart rate, I get the rate the moment I put my fingers on the watch, of course the rates are incorrect and they are not shown on my phone!

Just need the right tools. Not too difficult and you need an antistatic arm band. Goodluck! How bout selling me your extra mainboard?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] importfto:
first post here but i just found the site.

I broke the screen on my o2xda exec and took it too my local Carphone Warehouse. I am not one of their customers anymore but they looked the repiar up on their system and it showed that the repair cost was going to be £40. I authorised repair and got a written copy of the cost and confirmed the cost about 10 times as i didnt belive him. The phone went off to HTC's repair centre and came back three weeks later with a new screen and a complete upgraded rom. I paid £40 job done.

Might be worth a try if you have one near you.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] mikiqtek:
No prob.

All parts will be for sale as soon as Im ready.

Is it possible to switch screen with frame without hardreseting?

And is it possible to switch screen without taking the phone apart?

/Miki
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] clemsyn:
There is a way to just open up the just screen part of the clamshell but you risk breaking your flex cable but it can be done if you are really careful. I dont recommend doing it this way though.

I suggest you follow the instructions as per manual by opening up the keyboard part first and then clamshell then replacing the screen. It's not too difficult. Don't forget the anti-static thing so you don't mess up the mainboard.

Also, you don't have to hardreset to replace your screen..dont forget the anti-static thing!

Please reserve the mainboard for me...Thanks!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Pyrofer:
I wouldnt mind the flex cable!

Its easiest to leave this in the plastic housing, thus most of the actual shell (top lid, hinge, bottom keyboard housing part etc.

Let me know if you have this spare as my touchscreen doesnt work now and im desperate!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] kcfong2:
I'd be interested in the camera flash (flashlight)

Long story short, it's display got cracked, but the LCD panel is completely ok but 'Touch' does not work, so I decided to use a mouse to use a tablet, I connected a USB mouse using a Micro USB converter, the mouse turns on but it's curser does not show on the display and it does not work. I can't get past the lockscreen. What can I do? What Should I do? Why does the mouse does not work?

p.s. Repairing is not a option right now.

[Note Edge General] UpInTheAir:
This is to announce that [MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION] has kindly provided his CF-Auto-Root to support various Galaxy Note Edge SM-N915* devices !!

THIS THREAD IS JUST A

REFERENCE

&

LINK

TO CHAINFIRE'S WORK, NOTHING ELSE

THIS WILL VOID WARRANTY & SET KNOX COUNTER 0x1. THERE IS NO KNOWN METHOD TO ROOT WITHOUT TRIPPING KNOX !!

Repository of supported devices:

http://autoroot.chainfire.eu/

If your device is NOT SUPPORTED:

1. Download your deice firmware from sammobile.com or samsung-updates.com

2. Extract recovery.img

3. Post your recovery.img in Chainfire OFFICIAL CF-AUTO-ROOT THREAD !! and ask him nicely to look into it

If your device has issues with CF-Auto Root method:

* If your device has a LOCKED BOOTLOADER, then you're out of luck. There is no known method to unlock.

* Post in Chainfire OFFICIAL CF-AUTO-ROOT THREAD !!

Official XDA CF-Auto-Root Thread:

PLEASE POST ALL QUERIES RELATED TO CF-AUTO ROOT TO THE BELOW OFFICIAL CF-AUTO-ROOT THREAD !!

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1980683

I have only personally tested SM-N915S model and confirm root working. I can not vouch for any other device models. Just make sure you have your full firmware package available to recover from a soft brick and read the thread

before

attempting to flash !!

Method used for my SM-N915S:

1. Advised: Have a full stock firmware package available (just in case of soft brick) [sammobile.com or samsung-updates.com]

2. Have Samsung USB drivers installed on Windows PC (Easiest way is DL KIES from Samsung)

3. DISABLE REACTIVATION LOCK: device settings > security > reactivation lock >> DISABLE (uncheck)

4. Flash via Odin [I used Odin3 v3.07 - attachment] as per Chainfire's instructions !

** If unsure how to use Odin, there are many guides found by searching !

5. Wait around 30 secs after flash (stuck on boot screen), and hopefully device will boot.

6. Open SuperSU app and update SU if prompted
[Note Edge General] Wacky2bakky:
Sweet! So will this root the Sprint Note Edge successfully?
[Note Edge General] Next1776:
I will let you know in a few minutes.:eek:
[Note Edge General] Wacky2bakky:
Ok, good luck and thank you. By the way, which Firmware are you on?
[Note Edge General] netnerd:
What? What ?

I noticed att edge listed on 1st post. I can root att edge? Anyone able to confirm?

Sorry, 915t. I thought t stands for att. It' for tmobile.

Root on Sprint SM915P.... CHECK !

Okay, my Sprint SM915P phone is successfully rooted. It went down pretty much how it did in this thread : http://xdaforums.com/note-edge/general/easy-steps-stock-odin-n915tuvu1anjl-sm-t2943993

I didn't install the SD card fix yet...have to check that out first.

I got the "FAIL" messsage after flashing the CF autoroot tar file, then I thought WTH, I'll see if the Tmobile variant process works, so I tried it, and it worked. I have rebooted several times and it seems ROOT is sticking. Recovery had a hard time finding the UPdate SU file for some reason, but I eventually did, and flashed it.

So, my recommendation is to flash the Chainfire Autoroot tar file for the Sprint variant first, then follow the thread I referenced above for the rest. Your results may be different, so buyer beware! Good luck.

Many Thanks to Chainfire and TEKHD , you guys rock!

[Note Edge General] Wacky2bakky:
Awesome thank you. I will give it a shot after work tonight. I am on the NK1 firmware as well.
[Note Edge General] UpInTheAir:
Any users of the various device variants please inform others what's working and what's not with the official CF-Auto-Root method.

[Note Edge General] blackinjun:
Does this also mean no more autoupdates? {knox tripped}
[Note Edge General] UpInTheAir:
No be deal.

I always disable/remove update and use Odin to flash any stock ROM from sammobile.com or samsung-updates.com .
[Note Edge General] vongkachon:
Can N9150 use this?
[Note Edge General] UpInTheAir:
As your device isn't yet listed in Chainfire's thread, I have no idea if any of the official CF-Auto-Root would be compatible. If you were to risk your device, you would look for a Snap Dragon one, but I would not recommend to those who can't afford the risk. EDIT: Without having the official stock firmware package available, I WOULD NOT TRY IT.

If your device isn't yet supported, maybe see if your firmware package is available at sammobile.com or samsung-updates.com , download and extract the recovery.img . Then upload the recovery.img to Chainfire's main XDA thread (link in OP) and ask nicely if he can spend the time to support your device :) I there is nothing, maybe contact one of those sites and politely request :)
[Note Edge General] leekslk:
mmm, tried it on the N915G with the appropriate files being (CF-Auto-Root-tblte-tbltedt-smn915g) but no luck on rooting so far. Initially I thought it could be me being silly with drivers and ODIN versions, tried a few drivers and ODIN versions but same outcome. Was stuck at NAND: write failure after what appears to be an attempt to write in recovery, then cache, even after a few tries [being full disconnect,restart in download mode and re-flash]. No issues restoring to store firmware (N915GXXU1ANJ3_N915GXSA1ANJ3_N915GXXU1ANJ3_HOME.tar.md5) though.

Any tips guys?
[Note Edge General] UpInTheAir:
You might want to drop a post in Chainfire main XDA thread to let him know it's not working. He seems really busy, so that's of he monitors that thread anymore.

Nothing official, there might be something unofficial using Note 4 method. There is always risk to remember though.
[Note Edge General] wilbur4321:
Probably dumb question: will this also reset the device?
[Note Edge General] UpInTheAir:
If you mean "factory" reset, no it won't. Knox counter is covered in OP.
[Note Edge General] wilbur4321:
Thanks. Not too worried about Knox. Hopefully that won't change after tmobile gets my note3 with Knox tripped back, though.
[Note Edge General] invisiblesense:
Does anyone have an extracted version of the SM-N915S rom? I was looking for few apks from that one. I installed some files from the TMO version on to my phone and it has messed up certain functions.

Has anyone tried Towel Root on the AT&T version of the SM-N915?

[Note Edge General] sumnerm1:
I knew about the bootloader, but on my last S5, I was able Odin flash older kernel then towel root, then flash current kernel as a work around...was hoping something like that had been tried.

Thank you for your input.

If I have understood correctly, I have to extract the .img of my SCL24 and send it to Chainfire to hope that our Japanese AU Note Edge get that delicious root.
[Note Edge General] Ettepetje:
A few days ago Chainfire posted an official CF-Autoroot for the SM-N915FY:

READ BELOW FIRST!! http://download.chainfire.eu/685/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-tblte-tbltebtu-smn915fy.zip

For some reason Flashing Fails on my SM-N915FY. I was still on stock 4.4.4 (unrooted) and had checked beforehand that Reactivation loc was unticked. Now it is stuck on "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. etc." Alternative method (from [ROOT] ROOT for SM-N915FY) failed also.
[Note Edge General] UpInTheAir:
It's been supported by CF for a long time (not a few days). I gave a link in OP to try alternative method, which you quoted.

You also double posted in both threads, suggest to try via CWM recovery.

This thread is concerned with the Chainfire root method and link to his work.
[Note Edge General] Ettepetje:
I posted because it was mentioned that there was NO official auto-root by Chanfire. After a request in december Chainfire finally posted a message a few days ago in his topic saying that he added many auto-roots on his download site. The SM-N915FY is now present on his site. Since I concluded that this particular model now also is supported I mentioned it in both topics in a very short format.

As it failed on my device without any easy fix I added that to both posts.

Please inform me where I deviated from correct procedure(s)?
[Note Edge General] deadlyheart4u:
any idea of supported apps like xposed and freedom
[Note Edge General] UpInTheAir:
You didn't bother to read my post. ...

1. CF has supported your device for a VERY LONG TIME. If you bothered to take a look at the thread OP, you would have seen your device listed. I haven't magically added it in the last 3 days. I added it to the OP at least 3 weeks ago, but it could have been 3 months !

2. The CF links (which your device is listed) also in OP and unchanged.

3. The UNofficial method (you linked to again) has also been in OP since users reported issues with CF method.

4. You double posted (identical post in another thread). This is spamming and is frowned upon by all.

5. Hey, I gave you another pointer to a possible root method, you are welcome. I hope you find a resolution :)
[Note Edge General] Ettepetje:
I am glad that I solved the issues and rooted my phone. This had little to do with your efforts, either above or in the OP. OP'ers are protected on this forum and topics should not be derailed, especially if they serve a useful purpose, so I will keep it brief:

Today I wanted to root my phone, so I searched and read. I even searched this topic several times because the SM-N915FY was mentioned in your OP as being a special case. Through search I could only find requests for a working method and someone mentioning having submitted the recovery-image on Chainfire's topic. As I described I followed-up on that path with an unpleasant result (recovery damaged, unbootable phone).

There is no individual link in the OP for files (which you claim), and for the N915FY only a bare non-functioning link is added without any further info.

There is no direct or indirect mention in the OP of there being a file present on Chainfire's download site for the FY-model. There is also no warning present in the OP (or other readily found location here) that you should not use that file.

I tried to be helpful in both topics, mentioning an official file now being present on the Chainfire-site. After doing so I followed the guideline to install the file, discovering it didn't work, etc.

Instead of seeing the ommisions in your OP, and correcting those, you attack my post(s).

I wish you good luck with your topic, but please try to keep things more to yourself. With unclear descriptions (such as in your OP) people will draw wrong conclusions and make mistakes. Not everyone lives on the forum, nor does he/she read every single post without cause..

Hi,

I just bought the note 4 edge from bell here in Canada, and I am looking for a root for Note Edge model: SM-N915W8.
[Note Edge General] MGHX:
Does anyone try for the N915A (AT&T)?
[Note Edge General] UpInTheAir:
YOU are absolutely BLIND and IGNORANT in your post !

LET'S LOOK AT FACTS >>

1. Your device has been listed in the OP as supported by CF (and more than the 3 days you state !)

2. I never CLAIM of individual link to each file.

3. 2× WORKING links are present in OP:

a) CF main XDA thread

b) CF repository

☆☆ These are not my files, you shouldn't link directly to them as you encourage users to bypass pertinent information/instructions written by CF.

4. CF could update any of the files in his repo anytime. There is no way to know unless someone actually tests and reports. What doesn't work today may work tomorrow.

5. There are no omissions. The OP is a general announcement of devices under CF support link to his work.

6. Users aren't expected to read every single post (but encourage to), but the OP (which YOU failed at) is mandatory!

You never mentioned how you root your device, I suppose CWM by any chance? Also you double post, did you bother to ask the Moderator to delete it?
[Note Edge General] LNKNPRKFN:
Any news on the 915W8 (bell canada) version? Really need these ads GONE
[Note Edge General] DavidOsaka:
Getting rid of ads is one of the best reason to get rooted.

Still waiting for my 915J to get it.
[Note Edge General] Rick Clephas:
YOU SHOULD NOT REMOVE ADS!

Most of the people here are developers who add ads to their apps. They put a lot of time and effort in their apps. And they deserve to get some cash in return! They need to live and pay their bills as well.

Sent from my SM-N915FY
[Note Edge General] DavidOsaka:
There is ad and there is ad.

I'd rather have the choice and if I want to help devs, I pay for their app or I donate on their paypal.
[Note Edge General] LNKNPRKFN:
Well if you were to see the "purchased apps/pro version" list I have, you would take that accusation back... I support the devs just as much as any good person on this forum. I'm talking about free apps like candy crush or trivia crack or tap baseball... Etc... Not that they don't deserve revenue but there is an influx of in your face ads that pop up with a timer and full screen whenever you do something... This is the stuff that needs to slow down. I am not bothered by a banner that runs at the top or bottom of the screen... It's the in your face intrusive stuff that burns my britchez... OK rant complete...

So no word on the root for SM-N915W8 (bell canada) just yet?
[Note Edge General] tarek67:
Hi buddies,

I've just flashed my SM-N915G with the recent lollipop 5.0.1 released for Australian users (manual flash using ODIN)

Does the method described in this thread work on my updated device?

Many thanks.

[UPDATE]

Root succeeded with the below method:

- Download CWM Recovery from http://xdaforums.com/note-edge/development/n915s-n9150-cwm-based-recovery-6-0-5-1-t2954960 and flash with ODIN3

- Flash SuperSU root package via CWM recovery.

And It seems OK
[Note Edge General] blackinjun:
Let it go, if you go back through the thread others ran into the same issue as you and he does not want to change the OP to be clear for some reason. It might be a language thing
[Note Edge General] UpInTheAir:
Ok. I will delete all listed CF supported devices from OP.

This thread is just a reference and link to Chainfire work.

I share my own method to flash for my own device model. That's all. As this is a reference thread, so users please post ALL your queries now in CF Main thread. Link is in OP !

Edit: OP cleaned. All should be happy now :) This is not Q&A or development, so read OP and post in the correct thread !!

[Note Edge General] NekoShinigami:
Verizon has a developer edition pending on the Samsung website, i don't see why AT&T would not get one as well.

I figured as much from what I've read we either need something like safestrap or unlock the boot loader but I thought Id share just in case
[Note Edge General] NekoShinigami:
1 step at a time, we would need root before either of those would become even remotely possible. still a long ways off, unless someone finds an exploit soon we will probably get skipped over for the note edge 2 or whatever next gen note comes out. I plan to buy the dev edition when it comes out and i'll just sell this Verizon locked device to someone i know who really wants the phone but doesn't care about root and cant afford the $800 price tag.
