[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheBlueRaja:
I cant tell you how root affects KNOX at present, although it does seem to trigger the validity of it from what chainfire suggests, but, isn't this your works problem?

If YOUR device isn't suitable, let them provide one that is.

The only reason companies are behind BYOD is that it saves them money, you should be under no obligation to have a device that is compatible with their infrastructure unless they are paying you to get it.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phositadc:
Good basically prevents you from rooting by not allowing you to access your email if it detects root. It's extremely difficult to bypass. When my company used good, I just gave up on rooting, and I suspect you will too. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

My work actually gave me a work phone but they are now phasing that out and I do prefer to carry only one phone around.

Thank you both for the quick reply. I do have a feeling I will just end up not rooting the phone due to the fact that Good detects root.

Hello guys!

I'm trying to unlock bootloader of my Z3 the official way but i have a problem.

First my phone says "bootloader unlock allowed : no" and then when i try to unlock it it says "failed".

Here are pictures that will explain my problem.

Is there any way that i can unlock it?

Thank you in advance! :)
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Omario-242:
The bootloader unlock on your device is sadly not possible as far as I know. As long as it states "bootloader unlock allowed: no" it will always fail to unlock it.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:
No, if it says no, it cannot be unlocked. There is no way for it to be done. Endex
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pamapama:
Hello everybody,

I did some research in the past few days, but I cant figure out what to do.

I got a Note 3 SM-N9005 and installed Lollipop ( Build : N9005XXUGBOB6 ). Now the Bluetooth keeps loosing connection to the MI Band. After clearing the Bluetooth cache and restarting BT and the MI-Band app it works again, but only 1h oder 2h.

After updating to Lollipop I sure I have the locked bootloader as well. KNOX is already 0x01, but who cares.

Now I'm thinking about downgrading to 4.4.x or install a custom rom with 5.0.1 or 5.0.2. I prefer the update to 5.0.1/2.

The question is : how to install CWM with the locked bootloader?

I already found the how-to for AT&T 4.4 based devices. Is this going to work for me as well?

Best regards,

Patrick
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenny1991:
Look at instructions for twrp. I think the other one is not being developed anymore or that was plipz v?

All notes now days have locked bootloader if you update to lollipop bootloader. Doesn't matter unless you downgrade when Knox 0x0 which is not the case with you. You need root too. Not sure you can root 5 now. Maybe downgrade to 4.4 root recovery and clean install a rom.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pamapama:
Ok guys, I figured it out.

They didn't really say this will work for locked 5.0 bootloaders too, but it did.

But instead of upgrading to 5.0.1/2 I took a Bobcatrom 4.4.2 based.

Install

openrecovery-twrp-2.8.5.0-hltetmo-4.4.img.tar via odin 3.10

Move

[N9005][4.4.2]_XXUENB7_BoBCaT_V.7.0.1 to your SD card or phone

open TWRP

- backup

- wipe

- install ROM

- restart

It didn't work in the first place. I always got the message "SecSetupWizard stopped" after setting things up. The SecSetupWizard started the setup again and again -> loop.

Another wipe didn't help.

Just open the ROM.zip on your computer, go to : \system\app\ and delete the secsetupwizard.apk

Download the modified zip to your device, wipe & install with TWRP, reboot. Now it works fine, you have to enter all account data manually.

Thanks

Hi I was thinking about encrypting the phone myself, but I've read so much about the storage's performance being impacted negatibely that I wanted to know your take on this, any hands on experience?
[G 2014 General] Roldorf:
Why do you want to encrypt?

---------- Post added at 04:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:32 PM ----------

You could always encrypt and then un encrypt later if it affects performance, as long as you don't lose the encryption key.

Hi everyone,

I recently dropped my phone hard. Nothing was damaged except the speaker (the one right above the screen). It doesn't sound very clear when I'm making a phone call. It sounds very awful.

I'd like to know how to open up my dash and maybe I can try to fix it. I noticed there are 6 screws. I unscrewed them but I still can't figure out how to open it up.

Any help would be appreciated!

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheBlueRaja:
Hi,

Regarding bootloaders, im intending on getting an S6 from Amazon (Full price). Are these likely to have an unlocked or unlockable bootloader via "fastboot oem unlock" rather than exploit out the box?

Not sure i want an S6 if i have to potentially wait months for an exploitable bootloader like some Note 4's?
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcoplo:
Yes, any sim free phone will allow to unlocked the boot loaderbut it is very unlikely that any phone will have bootloader unlocked out of the box unless is it an second hand unit but then there will be no warranty .

Have you done this? I'd appreciate hearing from anyone who has actually swapped the factory ROM on an SM-T325 (TowelRooted or never rooted) from one region to the factory ROM from another region. Not just from someone who knows how easy it is without having actually done it. I'd like to know if you were able to do it without tripping KNOX, and if the replacement ROM was older, newer or the same date as the on it replaced. Any other details would be useful, and thankfully received.

Nothing quite like answering one's own questions...so, I DID finally flash my SM-T325 with the UK ROM, which was dates one day later than the ROM as it came from the factory. Worked fine. NO factory reset. I then downgraded the kernel, ran towelroot, SU, and then restored the kernel from the later ROM. No issues. SO, yes, it can be done w/o problems and w/o tripping KNOX>
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EvanVanVan:
Topic. I can't activate Advanced Calling/HD Voice on my line because I'm on a business account and my N6 is not an official vzw device.

My Moto X (1st gen) that I usually put my sim card back into when I need to make vzw account changes hasn't received the VoLTE update yet (so it's not an available option when I go into my account and try to add it). So which phones have? Is there a full list or if anyone can post individual devices it would be much appreciated.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jawmail:
Nexus 6, S5, Droid Turbo, 6S's, G3 I think that's it.

BTW my brother's got an S5 on a business account and HD calling is turned on so maybe check w/ your phone admin. and see if he can turn it on for you.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EvanVanVan:
Thanks for your help, the problem isn't the business account, it's that the combination of the business account and the non-vzw device (I think). I can't make any changes to the account while I've got my sim card in my N6, so when I need to, I put it back in my Moto X. But...

When I have the sim card in my N6 and go to my VZW business account page > click on my line > go to Add/Remove Features > I have a check box to enable HD Voice. But when I try to add it I get the following error "Please ensure all required features are selected for 555-555-5555." I think this is due to the non-vzw device status. There are only two required sections on the page, and I've selected an option for both of them.

Yet when I have the sim card in my Moto X, the HD Voice check box is no longer there...So I'm hoping if I can get a hold of one of those devices you listed and pop my sim card in, the check box will reappear and I'll be able to add it for my line.

And since I have a business account I can't use this page (http://www.verizonwireless.com/wcms/consumer/advanced-calling.html) to add it like another user suggested, because that one wants me to login to the regular My Verizon service, not the business one...

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmh714:
works fine on a Moto Nexus 6, so thats not it....
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EvanVanVan:
I'm not sure which part you're referring to working fine. If you mean HD Voice/VoLTE works on the Nexus 6, I agree, I'm not disputing that.

I'm having a problem adding HD Voice to a business line that has a Nexus 6 attached to it.

For consumer VZW accounts, is HD Voice added to the entire account (but only works on the phones that are compatible) or is it added individually per line like with a business account?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmh714:
right, so either its the combo as you stated before, or someone is giving you bad intel.

I have a consumer account with one device, the Moto version Nexus 6 and its working....cant answer the other questions, but from how I enabled it, I would surmise that is is added per line
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EvanVanVan:
OK thanks, so "VZW account page > click on your line > go to Add/Remove Features > select the check box to enable HD Voice" Is basically what you did to add it?

And I'm not sure who you mean is giving me bad intel, this is all stuff I've tried myself.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmh714:
yep, basically what I did....I guess I assumed you got that info on business line from somewhere....bad ass-umption I guess :)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EvanVanVan:
Ok, thanks.

And yeah lol small (family) business, so I've got access to everything...
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackhartct:
Your right, it won't work on a business line. U need a Verizon phone with HD calling to turn it on for that line.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EvanVanVan:
Just to update the thread... I got my hands on a Note 4, popped my sim card in, and *finally* was able to successfully enable HD Voice on my My Verizon Business Account page. Then I had to enable the VoLTE Provision flag, and now I've got a Nexus 6 with VoLTE on my Business account.

On my My Verizon Business Account I had to UNCHECK "Decline HD Voice" under the Other Features section (an option I had never seen before) as well as CHECK "HD Voice" under the Advanced Calling Features section. It seems that for whatever reason with an unrecognized Nexus 6 on a Buisness account the "Decline HD Voice" option is selected, but "invisible"/fails to appear. So every time I tried to enable it I was also declining it and it caused the error I was getting.

[Dell Venue] real_sl4cker:
Hi everybody.

I successfully rooted the Venue 7 3740 using the temp CWM session but recently have many force closes of google apps, especially Play Music, Google Search (voice search) and YouTube. The issues started after updating the apps from Play Store, uninstalling the updates makes them function again but I obviously would like updated apps.

So I wonder if I can use the temp CWM session to flash current GApps (for example my favorite PA GApps) -which might lead to working updated apps- without breaking something (because of the builtin GApps from stock).

Maybe anybody has some experience and enlighten me ;)

Greetings,

slaecker
[Dell Venue] justlovejoy:
Do a backup and test it out for us. If anything I'd say wipe data from the gapps you've updated. But do a backup first still! Tinker! I always recommend backup to sd card from prior headaches of not. Explore! This isn't a big a crowd as it looks, or is it?

Test it out first. remove a non essential system app and see if the restore restores it for you. Something not used like a google magazines or amazon Mp3 app.

So I just bought a Samsung Galaxy Alpha and i'm confused on how to root. You can't root it if it's at&t? It's an "Unlocked" phone what's that supposed to mean? I also have T mobile does that mean I can root it? I'm so confused looking around. Can I root the phone? If so how? If not okay. If unlocked means it works for most carriers I can root it? I'm going to stop I sound lost.
[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] SmokeyTech1:
I believe root is only for the exynos model (international model) not the AT&T, and unlocked means the phone can be used on any GSM carrier worldwide,
[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] arLevi:
So can you elaborate on how to root the phone for the international ones ? because I can't find any post on how to do so ...
[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] kidi:
http://androidxda.com/root-samsung-galaxy-alpha-sm-g850f

Get into download mode, open up Odin, connect the phone via usb cable to the pc, download CF-Auto-Root especially for the model you've got, wait for it to finish (when pass pops up on Odin, that means you are safe to disconnect the cable), and there you go. The phone might reboot a few times due to its rooting process but just follow the steps on the website i've given link above.

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] k.s.deviate:
After many hours of research and hands on work I have finished my in dash install in my MK4 Golf. Stock 5.0.2 with Timur's Kernel, Power Amp and Torque Pro.

First thing I'd like to say, I am HORRIBLE at plastic work. So my finished trim piece is not as clean as I'd like it to be but I had to stop and paint as I was just doing more harm than good. When I have some time I think I'm going to try and fix the trim, I'm going to see if there's someone local that can give me some pointers.

I used ABS cement to bond the trimmed metra kit to the modified trim piece, than I used plastic bumper filler to fill the gaps and finally sand prime and paint... Im a sound/electronic type guy with a small mechanical background.. NOT a body man. Lol

I wanted to make this a permanent install, contrary to the pre made trim pieces I could have bought that would have made the tablet removable. So I decided to mount it behind the trim piece rather than in the front. I also used PL Premium glue to hold the tablet in place.. This stuff is AMAZING.

http://www.lepageproducts.com/ProductDetail.aspx?pid=137

I relocated my Pioneer DEH-80PRS to the glovebox, made a secondary "kill switch" hidden in the ashtray and added 3 USB ports under the main trim piece just above the ashtray. Nice thing is I sourced the interior parts so I still have all the stock pieces in case I sell the car.

OK, so here's what I used:

Nexus 7 2013 (obviously)

OTG charging cable

http://www.amazon.ca/gp/aw/d/B00SMCJ8U6

Metra Double Din kit

http://www.amazon.ca/gp/aw/d/B002U5UD8C

For power I used this step down module

http://m.ebay.ca/itm?itemId=331477762049

Belkin Bluetooth receiver modified to accept power via USB (already owned one)

http://m.belkin.com/us/p/P-F8Z492/

And I also ordered a Bluetooth OBDII

http://www.amazon.ca/gp/aw/d/B009NPAORC

My deck has Bluetooth as well as 2 USB ports and 2 line in 1 rca input and 1 1/4 headphone jack. Now, I wanted to keep the Bluetooth available for my phone (nexus 6) so I used the belkin adaptor to receive the audio via Bluetooth from the tablet, convert it to line out and used a 1/4 jack to rca to input into my deck. The belkin receiver is located behind the tablet.

I then used 1 USB port from my deck to power the belkin and the other with an extension to one of the previously mentioned added ports. The other two are connected to a non powered hub (behind the tablet) and plugged into the OTG cable. From there I can freely plug in my USB sticks with music or movies and can swap them at any time.

I took an unused 12v accessory line from the fuse box ran it to the switch I mounted in place of the lighter (beside the ashtray) and from there to a relay. The relay takes constant power from the existing lighter power supply wires, and feeds the 12v downstep module located under the center console, (plugged into OTG cable of course) now depending on the position of the switch the tablet will turn on with the key, or accessory position of the key like the stereo does. This way if I don't want the tablet to turn on, say, in -30 Celsius I have this option.

Here are a few pictures I took with my nexus 6.
