I've been with Verizon for many years, and grandfathered in to unlimited data. Love it.

Here's my dilemma... A few years ago I had the Galaxy S3, loved it. Moved on to the S4, hated it since it was so laggy. Ditched it for the '13 Moto X Dev Edition, had it since they came out. Got to the point where I needed something with better battery life and the screen started to get severe burn-in. Decided to try the iPhone 6 and 6+ a couple of weeks ago, both had horrible urine-yellow screen issues, took them back and got the Note 4. Well... I've been through three Note 4's due all having screen discolorations, one being pink at the top, the other two were darker on the right side of the screen and very warm on the left. Needless to say, I'm disappointed in Samsung since their screens were always awesome.

So... I'm still within my 14 day return period and need options on good phones. I'm looking for good battery life, something not terribly laggy, takes decent pictures and doesn't suffer from bad burn-in too soon, preferably LCD but will consider something AMOLED. I'm used to the Note 4's size already so I'm not picky on phone size. Expandable storage is also preferred but not a deal breaker as long as it's at least 32GB built-in.

If I can't figure something out, I'll have to grab a used phone from craigslist or something to hold me over until something better comes out. Please help me out guys, I'd really appreciate it!

Hello All,

Is there a way I can downgrade my SM-N910A from 4.4.4 to an earlier software, so that I can use the debug screen exploit to sim unlock the phone, or if someone knows how to bypass the simunlock without pay for a service that would be awesome.

Thank YOU !

Try asking for it from customer service.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] tyiphius:
Since the phone came stock with 4.4.4, I highly doubt you'd ever get anything lower. Paying for a service is your best bet. IMEI unlocks are permanent so itd be better in the long run
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] beritas:
Hello, can you give a link where to buy an unlock code? I have SM-N910A with AT&T sim lock
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] WeAreNotAlone:
I see this is a old post so you probably have found the info you need but for others I've read:

BEFORE POWERING UP a ATT device (NIB)... you can request a unlock code via ATT unlock page- (Google it)

Select NON-ATT customer even if you are a ATT customer!!!!... Enter info and in about 2 business days you will receive the code.

Once you get code, take the never powered up device back off /remove battery and insert a non-Att sim into the phone.

Next step= If you are unsure of the charge of the battery being above 30-40% or more, plug phone into battery charger. (Unlock process only takes a few seconds, point is you don't want phone to go dead while code is processing.)

Upon powering up the phone it will display a screen that has a place to enter the unlock code.

Power phone up, and enter code... and the SIM lock will be removed.

NOTE: If you power up phone and let phone register on Network prior to obtaining unlock code:

ATT will NOT give you the code until you have fulled all contract obligations.

(Exception being if you are active military and being deployed overseas.)

PS: Unlocking the phone right away is useful for those than are wanting to compare network reception within the 14-day buyers remorse period.

Snks for your answer, I tried to use AT&T unlock with no luck so I found cellunlock.net and now got fully unlocked phone

Hi guys,

I have this problem as well. I interrupted a stock firmware upgrade using TWRP and my Huawei Ascend P7 is now in a boot loop.

I have I tried to flash several Huawei stock "boot.img" and "recovery.img" using fastboot in command prompt. The files get flashed but they don't work when I reboot to recovery.

I can still boot to fastboot mode so I hope there is something i can do to fix it.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] anichillus:
I used Wisbar, and from what I remember, it will not move the start bar at the buttom. Only thing that it does is that it overrights the start and replace it with it's own aplication....or something like that. It doesn't modify the actual start bar.

How did you get yours in the lower right corner ? :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Vilem:
Use Wisbar Advanced Desktop for moving your start-button anywhere.

It's possible to move the start button wherever you want, if you're really dedicated. I wrote an app to do it many years ago, but I had limited use for the app in that form. It turned into VJToggleToday.

[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] abhishekraj:
Some users who rooted the redmi using "native root" method might have noticed that when you call su from a terminal it shows "Warning: Generic atexit() called from legacy shared library". It might stop some command line operations from going further (in my case the debian-kit script). It is the problem caused due to old "su" binary. So here is the new one I retrieved from my Mi3. It works perfectly in redmi 1s too. You can replace it directly and apply the necessary permissions(chmod 644 /system/xbin/su) or replace the one in zip files using 7zip.

Hello,

I tried again to flash to stock. I tried versions 1.12 stock and 1.54 to go back, using 2.7.02 TWRP (2.7.0.1 doesnt boot) and it still says failed.

Anyone know how to work around this or help me get to stock. I want to update my phone to latest version!
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:
looking in this wrong corner mate, you need a backup from the voda cid. your official version is not 2.22.401 !

check the backup thread and compare by CID and not by buildnumber of your custom rom

and BTW read the whole OP there. its literally written there what to do, take the time for it. hboots, software numbers and cids.....its all explained
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imAmbitious:
No need to try and make me look silly loool. The first few lines in my post say I have tried the versions starting 1.54 and 1.2.. I got them from the VOPAP001 section. Those are the ones which are giving me a failed attempt.

Everytime I flash it it just says failed and error mounting E:/cache. I looked up the error I was receiving and based off what I read it seemed I was using the wrong rom so I came over here to ask.

SO the question with the 2.22 was just another attempt as trying something that might work.

Could you suggest something else please?

EDIT: Also does it matter what version of twrp I am using? 2.8.3 doesnt boot, gets stuck in white screen, 2.8.1 doesnt get into white screen, thats the one i have flashed as recovery

Anyone have any clue as to why this is??

THanks!
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:
use an older twrp 2.7 range. the newer ones are compiled differently and therefore doesn't work on your lower hboot.

restore the 1.12 voda nand and flash back the matching stock recovery. then ota up again
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clsA:
The "error mounting E:/cache" always happens after you have flashed a recovery and erased cache (TWRP prints it 3 times on my phone)

The failed usually means your download was corrupt or it was created with a different recovery than what your using, if the recovery was created with Phils you can't restore it with TWRP. Also are you restoring the backup from the ext_sd or the internel sdcard or a usb-otg. Are you MD5 checking your downloads ?

If your having problems with the recovery partition also you phone may have damaged partitions ..have a look at mike1986 fix

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imAmbitious:
I am using twrp for the recovery, does it matter which version of twrp i use or does it have to be the same version the one where the backup was made?

Thanks for the second link as well, whenever I try to restore my data from previous backup it fails at 85%, ill see if that fixes it.

Thanks for your help, will post with an update once tried.

[Shield Q&A] Sjorn:
I did a factory image reset of my Shield Tablet 32gb. Now I only have 11gb reported.

From reading the Nexus 32gb issues. It is with the userdata.img that all the factory images are for the 16gb model. I tried to delete userdata.img with fastboot -w and reload it userdata.img but I still only get 11GB of space instead of like 26gb or so.

Any thoughts on what I can do or where a 32gb userdata.img file is that I can try. Unless there is a factory image for 32gb on Nvidia's site that I have overlooked.

Things I have tried;

using erase command to remove all partitions and reload from factory image update v1.2.1

using the flash-all.bat file
[Shield Q&A] Sjorn:
I think I fixed the issue, for anyone else.

I did another erase all the partitions and then when i reloaded from image 1.2.1 I skipped the userdata.img. I have no idea if this will impact the use of the tablet or not but it is now showing 26gb available. So I am happy about that.

I will now go back to reinstalling apps and making sure it's rooted again and update to lollipop.

Hey guys, I've been thinking about canceling my Jump! service, I just do not see the benefit beside protecting you device. I just want to see who have it, and why you want to keep it. Or those that do not have it and why you didn't bother signing up.:)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] hasbrobot:
I have it and my carrier insurance actually dropped 2 dollars a month so I figured, why not? I do like it though. Out allows me to continually get new phones. I tend to get board with a phone to a degree after a year or so. For me it's pretty good. You just have to get over the fact if you keep jumping, you'll never really own a phone. Sort of leasing a phone.

Merry Christmas
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] MacShark:
I'm very fortunate to have the opportunity to switch to a new phone every year, so I thought JUMP! makes sense. The insurance and Lookout Premium is a nice addition.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Eroc162:
I been paying into jump for me and my wife since it started. Just upgraded both of us 2 weeks ago to two note 4's. In 6 months Samsung will have new phones with Playstation Now. I saw an aluminum billet cut out of a new Samsung phone, kinda curious to see what the final product looks like and how the Playstation Now runs on it. If I like I will wait for unboxing youtube video and maybe I jump.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] neonsector:
I use mine for insurance purposes only, I end up buying phones every 4 months or so, so basically the upgrading isn't worth doing for me, plus its a waste money to lease a phone and not pay it off imo.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] iunlock:
It all depends and it's all in the numbers. It's a number game. If you have it only for insurance, do keep in mind that there's a deductible. For a high end phone like the Note 4, it's like $175 or something. If you're using it to upgrade, make sure your phones not almost paid off or it won't be worth it lol. Or if you're required to put down a big deposit, jump isn't worth it. Do the math. Crunch the numbers...
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] devynbf:
Well I have the first JUMP package that was released (grandfathered in). I love it because it lets me upgrade every 6 months. I get bored of devices pretty quick, especially with all of the devices that get released. Best thing to ever happen to a carrier.

BAD ASS NOTE 4
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] winlinmac001:
Can you please elaborate. I felt the Jump 2 was just an enhanced version of Jump 1 (Jump 2 just allows you to upgrade whenever you want). Jump 1 allows maximum 2 upgrade a year.

I feel the Jump is worth it if you are upgrading your devices every 6 months, based on my rough calculations. :cowboy:
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] BACARDILIMON:
If you are on payment plans you must pay off device by 50% if you wanna jump. With jump 1 it 6 months no matter how much you owe.

BAD ASS NOTE 4
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] winlinmac001:
Wow, T-Mobile rep explained me Jump 1 way differently, stating that half the device value would still need to be paid, lol. However, from the way you describe it, Jump 1 would have certainly been better in this case. The T-Mo rep also stated that customers can choose between Jump 1 or Jump 2, I call that BS.

Even paying 50% of the device is still worth it (whether you wait one year or 6 months) because every non-Apple device depreciates fast.
