[Galaxy S6 General] tharindunw:
The fingerprint sensor in the Galaxy S6 and the Galaxy S6 edge has a neat little feature. Some of the uses that were advertised include securing access to the device as well as authorizing PayPal and Samsung Pay payments. It also has another feature which will allow users to log into websites by simply using the fingerprint that they have already set up. This means that users will no longer have to enter username and passwords on websites that they regularly visit. Simply tap to login and then use the fingerprint sensor.

The Galaxy S6 and the Galaxy S6 edge will automatically ask users if they want to use this feature when they log into a website for the first time using their credentials. If they accept from that moment onwards whenever they have to log into that website they simply use the fingerprint sensor. Those who don’t want this feature can continue to use their credentials. This isn’t groundbreaking stuff, iPhone users can already do this courtesy of iCloud Keychain, but it certainly adds more value to the fingerprint sensor on Samsung’s latest flagships.

[Galaxy S6 General] daffie:
This was already a possibility on the Note4...but I agree a good option to have!
[Galaxy S6 General] opieum:
The concern here is security. Both Apple and Samsung have had their security snafus. That can be a very real concern when it regards how its possible to snag the fingerprint ID hash created if that portion is not secured well.

Marketing security can be nice and feel goods, but from a technical standpoint, what is the reality?

As much as I want this phone, I also don't need my personal information getting swiped because of poorly implemented security.

I will get the phone regardless, and likely will spend some time testing the security features.

[Moto X Q&A] Skyrez:
So I have a Stock Verizon Moto X 2013 with an AT&T sim. SMS, MMS, and Voice all work. The only thing that doesn't is the Mobile Data. I have tried to manually change to APNs, turning off radios and network refreshing. When I am not on Wifi, the celluar signal looks fine, containing white bars. However, as soon as I go off WIFI connection, the celluar signal immediatly turns orange in the Quick Notifications toggle. Please. I don't even want LTE, just some 3G would be nice. How can I fix this?
[Moto X Q&A] enriquejones666:
I'm also running a Verizon phone on AT&T, and 3G data does work. I'm not sure I can trouble shoot your specific problem, but I can tell you what worked for me.

I ditched the stock ROM, and installed Krypton 1.4 ROM. Then I installed Xposed and the GravityBox module.

This gives you access to the custom mobile network settings, "preferred network type", "select network", and "network mode" (see pics).

Using these settings, I get HSPA connectivity.

[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] huffmybrd:
i am able to exit from download mode (by holding power + vol down + home), but no matter what ui try i am ONLY able to get into download mode (which is tricky because the screen that tells you to push vol up to enter DM or vol down to exit doesnt display, ill attach a picture of that.)

and that is the full log from ODIN

Are you in DM now ? You can not exit it ? Emergency exit DM : hold "Power" button and "Vol-" at the same time . Are you flashed via Odin anything earlier ?

Try to go to recovery. If there is a red system invalid*, then you the road to a service center. On the device in DM is the name of the device?
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] huffmybrd:
See my last post; I CAN exit DM, but when i boot the tablet the only thing that will accually boot is Download Mode. When i try and boot normally, or load recovery (power and Volume +) They Dont work like they dont even start to boot.

AND Nothing Has been flashed lately but i just found out that the owner of the Tab4 may have been in recovery mode and was trying to format or partition his ExtSD card and might have formatted or partitioned ALL the internal storage.

[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DUHAsianSKILLZ:
Here's a guide I found by searching to obtain pit. Someone needs to pull this from their device

1. Root+busybox+USB Debugging

2. Connect the tablet to a PC

3. Run program EFS Professional.exe

4. Go to tab Backup -> Device Filters -> select All Partitions

5. Go to a program EFS Professional directory and to look here for the new PIT-file SM-T705.pit

Ignore the T705 part. Hopefully this helps

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leandronb:
Hi guys, some weeks ago i received lollipop ota on my m8. i updated and after that i made a factory reset just to be sure nothing from kitkat remains. but now i notice that the phone is not smooth and have a good battery that it was on kitkat. i will show some situations:

1-recent apps screen, on kitkat apps appeared faster, on lollipop takes a while to load all 9 apps in grid view, also in card view sometimes the scroll is not running at 60fps.

2-apps are slower to open and they are not staying on ram like was on kitkat. there is a lot more of reloading apps, and multitasking is not as smooth as it was.

3-camera is slower to open, i don't know if this was cause by play store updates from htc camera or lollipop firmware. also sometimes when i take a picture and press the photo to see a message appears "image is being saved" and i have to press again to open the photo. i don't use sd card and have 17gb of space free.

4-battery is draining faster, i always do an overnight test, 6~8 hours of idle, on kitkat i can wake in the morning with 100% battery, now i woke up with 95%. i left google now off, location on, sincronization on, wifi on. the same stuff that i used with kitkat, except for one thing, smart lock by location, maybe is the problem, i will make a test later. also battery is draining faster on usage, i can see battery dropping very fast when using feedly or chrome.

5-about chrome, maybe is just the app and not lollipop. is slower, sometimes the blue progress bar do not appear, and sometimes it just don't load any page after clicking enter, and i have to close and try again. also embedded youtube videos do not have sound and i have to use youtube app(the can drain the phone battery in 4 hours when using continuoulsy and 100% brightness, while on mx player it lasts more than 9 hours SoT).

6-The android encryption is enabled by default on m8? if yes, is there a way to disable it?

Lollipop brought a lot of good stuff, like lock screen notifications, better notification and quick settings design, but the phone doesn't feel like was some months ago, the fastest and smoother android phone i ever used with very fast multitasking and very good battery. anyone share the same feeling? and if there is something that can make the phone go back to be smooth like was?

I returned to kitkat and device was a lot smoother and with better battery. But now I am running stock gpe 5.1 and I'm very happy with it. I only miss sense camera, I installed it but do not work properly.

One thing you can do is install xposed if you're rooted and do the amplify tutorial. Get rid of a lot of wakelocks
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LoganDude:
KitKat

I used both versions for M8 (4.4.4 and 5.0.1 official sense software)

And i highly recommend android 4.4.4 for HTC One M8.

Kitkat is more smoother and unbuggy than Lollipop.No restriction on offical apps (like photo gallery zoe features this features really cool but HTC disable this features on Lollipop.)

Android Kitkat 4.4.4 sense 6 really really good for M8. So.. I'm back to KitKat and I'm not regretful about that :cool:
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Badelhas:
Why kitkat if you have Marshmallow already?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:
Was about to ask the same thing. MM is the better version of kitkat if you ask me ! It's smooth and very battery friendly for me

:)
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LoganDude:
Kitkat,Lollipop and Marshmallow is smooth but Lollipop and Marshmallow have visual effects and they have mater design I don't like these features.

Also

Dalvik machine better than Art Machine even if Art system gain better point than Dalvik on Antutu Benchmark.

Because most of apps adapted to Dalvik machine ,you can see this moment on offical HTC apps like music apps or some 3D games or when you write something on forums;keyboard really buggy on Lollipop therefore KitKat is best choice of me. Because I can move in software without bugs.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Justintoxicated:
I had just downloaded the latest firmware to upgrade to lolipop, I did a titanium backup, then a nandroid with TWRP.

Upon reboot I can only get to the default recover screen (The one with the android on the skateboard). I can boot into TWRP and have tried clearing cache and delvik cache, and now doing a factory reset but I'm still having the problem. sometimes when rebooting from TWRP the phone boots to the lock screen (or to setup screen after factory reset), then a few seconds later reboots back to the screen with the android on the skateboard.

I haven't even started installing the new firmware, all I did was backup with TWRP and it seems to have semi bricked the phone.

I also tried restoring the backup and I get an error "E:\ No Partition selected for restore."
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] dottat:
You flashed twrp either by twrp manager or allowed flashify to download the image for you. Try flashing the firmware zip I posted in tigerstowns thread that has twrp in it. If that doesn't work you will need to ruu and then install twrp and restore. Do not use twrp manager.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Justintoxicated:
I beleive I flashed twrp origionally from fastboot, that was months ago though when we got the 4.4.4 update.

Do you mean I need to flash that zip from fastboot?

I'm worried about trying to flash firmware with the phone in a strange state. I'm almost thinking that something went bad inside the phone, but not convinced yet. It has been doing strange things lately, constant searching for location, pausing itself durring playback of music, and some random restarts. I haven't been messing it it so it seems strange to all of a sudden have these issues after many months.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] dottat:
Nah man. Just reflash the firmware zip that contains twrp and report back. The older twrp are not safe to use on the newer firmware. I have a pda thread stickied in the general section that explains. Phone is likely fine.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Justintoxicated:
Ok, yea, I flashed the new firmware (with twrp) using fastboot , I'm still stuck on the same screen though. I did not install lolipop because I need to get the phone to USB mode to copy it over, which I cannot do because it will not start up.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] dottat:
Ok...so follow me...if you flashed what you thought was cache on the new firmware but using an older twrp you wiped system instead.

Do you have your stuff backed up?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Justintoxicated:
I don't know, I made a nandroid to my external memory card and immediately after that I was no longer able to start up... I tried to restore the nandroid and I cannot. So I would say no I am probably not backed up. I do still have RDKN rom on the memory card for 4.4.3, should I try to re-install that?

TWRP is now version 2.8.5.0, so apparently it updated correctly (I think before it was 2.8.1)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] dottat:
No. Your best bet to get your stuff back would be to downgrade firmware back to 4.4.4 and reflash the latest twrp img only and then restore your nand.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Justintoxicated:
Ok my internet is not working on my laptop at work (only of the PC I'm on and no way to transfer files without my phone), so I guess I will try to do this when I get home. At this point I don't even care about my data, I wanted to save my text conversations but other than that everything I need should be saved in my titanium backup.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] dottat:
And that's what I figured. So flash 4.4.4. Flash latest twrp. Restore nand from ext sd. Boot up. Install this app.

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934537937

Run it and link to your Google account and make it perform a backup.

It will do your apps/email accounts/texts/even home screen layout. And it will do it once a day for you automatically or on demand whenever.

Once you get a good backup on this app you can simply flash the new ruu and use this app to restore.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Justintoxicated:
Update, restarted the computer and I was able to restore the old firmware. I re-installed the old rom afterwards (not my nandroid) and I am unable to get into the OS. Well technically I get prompted to select a language, after which the phone reboots back to the S-off androids with skateboards bootloader. Does this mean my phone is toast?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Justintoxicated:
Hey guys, should I S-on the phone load the stock bootloader and try to return it? It is over a year old so I think I will need to use my insurance ($100). What is the best way to go about doing this?

Also when I get my replacement phone will there still be a way to S-off?

Thanks,

- Jusitn
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Justintoxicated:
The problem appears to be something wrong with my micro SD card! I removed the micro SD card and I can boot up fine. I guess I need to find another way to copy the rom to the micro SD install the rom then remove the micro SD card.

edit:

Oh this is worse than paying $100 for a new phone. It appears that creating a backup instead of creating a backup, actually corrupted my memory card. Now all the photos are backed up to the cloud but it will take me hours and hours to get all my apps back to the way they were. Some Security camera settings, Rifle target hand load development all gone. Audio book place holders, all notes taken etc. :( Nothing life or death but those security cameras will take me forever to figure out. I know I know, why not create a backup right? Well that's what I was trying to do!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Justintoxicated:
So I was able to get back some data using some recovery software, unfortunately I was not able to retrieve the nandroid or the titanium backup files. Pictures were backed up to the could and music licenses and other hting I can add back on from the PC. Very time consuming though.

Anyways, what should I do now? Should I just reformat the SD card and continue to use it or should I assume that this happened because the card is bad and replace it with something else?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] robocuff:
I don't know what file system you're using but assuming it's one that windows can read, connect it to a PC and run chkdsk on it. If you don't know how to do that from a command prompt, right click on the drive in windows explorer and choose properties. Then tools and then click on the check now button under Error-checking. A small window will open. A line that says automatically fix file system errors will be checked by default. In your case, I'd suggest also checking the line that says "scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors". It'll take a while for it to complete with that line checked so be patient. If you're lucky, it might just fix your problem. No promises but it's worth a try.

When it's done you can look in your event viewer to see what it found, if anything. If it finds bad sectors, I wouldn't trust the card. It can be used but there's no guarantee that more problems won't pop up. Maybe, maybe not.

To get to your event viewer, in Win 7 (not sure about Windows 8) click start and in the search box type event.vwr. I'm not sure what category you have to look under in there but perhaps under Winlogon. That's where you'll find it if it requires a reboot to check the card but that's not likely so I'm not sure.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Justintoxicated:
exFat for the card, and yes I am on windows 7. I tried to run a check as it was detected as having problems when I plugged the card into my laptop. Then it said I needed to dismount the drive and I said ok. Then it would just hang up. I reformatted the card and then ran the checkdisk again and it tells me that there are no problems now. I guess the card is ok and the issue was caused by TWRP? Not very cool when creating a back delete all your titanium backups and your nandroid that you were trying to create. Unfortunately I have to start from scratch on everything now. I even tried restoring to an older nandroid from May that was saved on my computer but that failed as well. for different reasons.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] dottat:
What reason did the restore fail for? And don't ever s-on unless you have let me have a crack at a phone. Not one thing you have said so far makes me think its phone. Unfortunately I have ended up with corrupt exfat discs before too. Sucks.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spaded21:
My phone is not sleeping. I just got it and promptly rooted and decrypted. I tired BlissPop first and I am currently on Chroma. With both roms I used Banks GApps and with both I have these wakelocks from Google. I have tried both Franco and LK with them too. Not saying it's definitely GApps fault. Could be related to another app I have installed. Gmail, Textra, and Calendar storage all have a lot of wakeup triggers. Any help is appreciated.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RubinCarter:
Are you on Lollipop 5.0.1 and what version of Google Play Services?

If you are on Play Services v7, lots of people including myself have experienced bad wakelock issues in the last few days, from System Update Service in particular.

Unfortunately, Play Services updates itself automatically and silently in the background. If you use TiBkup and have a backed up version of Play Services v6, you can restore v6. But the fix is temporary; sooner or later the background update will take place and upon a reboot, v7 will take hold and your wakelock problem will be back. You can restore v6 again, or

Another fix is to stay with v7 but use an app from the Playstore called Disable Service to actively turn on the System Update Service each time after a reboot.

Ultimately our only hope lies with Google fixing up Play Services.

Download the CF Auto-Root specific to your device as well.

If you think your sdcard is suspect, just remove it or format it. Follow the usual advice: try another USB cable on the rear of PC (USB 2.0). The original Note 4 USB cable works for me.

BTW, if you're trying to get to lollipop, don't root until you take the OTA update.
