same here

Just saw the exact same spots on my phone, which led me here.

Hmm hope the store does something good. Mine has also been through a replace because of a broken front screen.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Webern:
Perhaps you have a different sensor, or motherboard, now. But that's definiately dust on the sensor.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Palava:
Well sort of good news, mine got repaired. It took 6 weeks and two attempts. Allthough the first camera module swap was succesfull, I received my phone damaged and making a rattle sound.

I'm hoping this time the rattle won't return, because they did a beautiful job fixing the phone. The tolerances are better than when I got it new..
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Salaminator:
One thing to look out for is the Camera Lens manages to get marks on the camera just from being in my pocket.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Palava:
My lens still looks sharp. No furthers issues to report after my repairs.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Napsterbater:
Tell me about it, mine is less than a month old and is scratched.

Hey, I've been trying to find information about to root this. It's running KitKat 4.2. I've tried using kingoapp but doesn't look like it supports it. Any help is appreciated, thanks.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SimpleTool:
Use this method.

If that doesn't work try this one.

Both don't need a computer, simply install the apk.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mark845:
Im trying to root the same bix but can not find any info on line on how to do it.

That first link does not work. Ans the secound wont open on the Android box.

Is they any other way?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] hanfordrob:
I've noticed that I can only send 1 or 2 pictures at a time in the stock message app. Is anyone else having this issue? My daughter's iPhone can send more then that to me in 1 message. Is there a setting I'm missing somewhere? Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] borijess:
Yep. That's why I went with textra.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] hanfordrob:
I tried textra and it won't even let me send 1 picture. It says file to large. I'm only sending pictures I've taken with my phone and they are only 8 mb pictures at that
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] borijess:
I send 11 pics at a time with textra.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] hanfordrob:
Maybe I have a setting set incorrectly. Do u use it stock or did u tweak some of the settings
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] borijess:
U don't have to tweak anything for pics. It should just work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] hanfordrob:
I deleted and reinstalled textra and I can't send any picture's at all! Texts are fine but no pictures and no matter what I do I can't seem to get it to work
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] borijess:
Go into mms settings and manually check configure apn. Look at pic below.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] hanfordrob:
I tried that as well and I am still unable to send any pictures
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] borijess:
Has to do something with your apn. So with or without that checked u still can't send pics?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] heXacode:
Go to Settings>More Networks>Mobile Networks>Access Point Names

Match up what I have…

Report back if its the same. If not then either check the current APN used and see if its matched up or create a new APN and match up with mine. Then save it. Then reboot your phone. Then try picture sending again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] hanfordrob:
Yes but now I believe it's an att issue in my area. My friends and family are now also having the same issue,so I believe once the art issue is resolved textra will work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] heXacode:
So you're saying your APN matches mine?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] hanfordrob:
Yes it matches yours exactly. The reason I think it's an art issue is because now when I turn off my WiFi I can't load the play store or YouTube and when I access the Internet it takes forever before any Web page will load
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] hanfordrob:
Sorry att issue. Damn auto correct
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] heXacode:
If I were you I would go to the AT&T site and open up a chat with a rep. Discuss your issue and see what they say. They will be able to tell you if there is network issues in your area or not and provide solutions.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] hanfordrob:
Update. Att had a service area issue and got that resolved and now textra is working great! Thanks to everyone for your help on this thread.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] heXacode:
Glad to know. Happy texting!

My phone stuck at honor logo

please Can any one help me

The phone screen is frozen on the logo

The phone does not close

i have H60-L02

and I cannot connect to the phone via adb tools

What can i do ?????
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shubham1120:
Ok you should give a little bit of background too. Like did u flash any custom rom? kernel? etc:)
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordYuuki:
Install Multitool and download the Universal ADB drivers, then do the "unbrick" option on the Multitool menu.
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marioteet:
Yes I have tried to install this rom b307
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marioteet:
Unfortunately Multitool does not see my phone
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordYuuki:
That's because, you do not have the Universal ADB Drivers, reinstall them and try again.
[HTC One Mini 2] Linkalex1:
Hello everyone,

as a beginner in flashing roms/kernels, I flashed the dt2w (which is present on this forum) on my HTC One Mini 2. When I tried to reboot it, the screen was all blac. You could tell the thing was running, because of the vibration and sounds, but no image at all.

That's why I now need the stock kernel (original one?) and I don't know where to find it, neither if I have saved it somewhere, which I will flash using fastboot/adb.

Thank you
[HTC One Mini 2] csoulr666:
I believe someone has posted the stock boot.img somewhere(I can't seem to find it). You can also take the boot.img from the Stock Rom here
[HTC One Mini 2] Linkalex1:
I am doing so right now, but will I be able to do the official upgrades? And is this a ROM or a kernel? Thank you
[HTC One Mini 2] csoulr666:
No , you won't be able to install official updates once you unlock your bootloader. But you can do so manually by flashing it through stock recovery with a relocked one. Just make sure you backup everything in the phone storage if you do it since it is wiped if every time you reunlock the bootloader.
[HTC One Mini 2] TomTomGo!:
How can I flash an OTA manually?

I've got an OTA (OTA_M8_MINI_UL_K44_SENSE60_Vodafone_CH-DE_2.18.166.2-2.18.166.1_release_448149.zip) but I am not able to install it.

I've already tried flashing a stock kernel (the boot.img from the link you've posted), I've flashed a stock recovery (M8_MINI_UL_Stock_Recovery_2.19.401.2.img) and I've relocked the bootloader.

But when I get the update notification and try to update, the phone goes to the stock recovery and the update proceeds but after about one quarter of the progress bar, it stops and shows the red exclamation mark (!).

I've also tried flashing the kernel and the recovery which are included in the OTA update, but still the same error.

Do you have an idea how I can manage to successfully update?
[HTC One Mini 2] csoulr666:
I managed to do it, but it was a really dirty method. What I did was find the firmware.zip file from the Firmware I got from here, locked the bootloader and then flashed it via the bootloader(renaming it to PXXXIMG.zip,check exact file name before proceeding). Make sure you find the firmware of the OTA, or just get the firmware.zip from it.

This gets messy because it will result in you reunlocking the bootloader(which I assume you probably will) which will in turn wipe the internal storage completely. So backup up the Internal Storage AND your SD card before you proceed.
[HTC One Mini 2] TomTomGo!:
I've tried what you did. Seemed to update Bootloader, Recovery and Radio.

Then I rebooted, again got the update notification and tried to install it.

Bit still the same error, software update still fails.

Up... Got mine from Smart, 64gb - Gold Platinum
[Galaxy S6 General] roydok:
Got a Globe S6 Dual SIM 64 gig black sapphire. Seems Globe has locked both SIMs to its network. I can't use my Sun network SIM in any of its SIM trays. Any way to unlock this?
[Galaxy S6 General] DrearierJester1:
Congrats on the new phone. For Smart issued phones both SM1 & Sim 2 can be used for Smart/Sun sim... Perhaps you need to unlock ur phone.

There's an unlock key available for sammy phones online costs 2k pesos. U might want to try that route.
[Galaxy S6 General] roydok:
You are very lucky Sir under Smart. It is stupid of Globe to introduce a dual SIM phone only to lock both SIMs on their network. It's fair to lock only one SIM and leave the other SIM unlocked. :(
[Galaxy S6 General] useletters:
Anyone tried rooting the S6? Or flash a custom ROM?
[Galaxy S6 General] samwise110712:
Got mine from globe as well. Tried 2 online unlocking options with no positive results. They all got refunded. I guess we need to wait more. :( Now my sun cellular is stuck at home.

Guys, I saw this while browing, http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s6/development/rom-xtrestolite-deodexed-mod-edition-1-0-t3094423

Do you think it can work with our duos version? (Model: SM-G920F/DS via *#1234#)

A samsung store clerk told me that they did not launch the international version to our country, just the duos version, not just sure about the edge version though.

As what I've been told, all non-edge version of the S6 are duos and if there were any international version, they probably are gray units (imported).
[Galaxy S6 General] roydok:
Have not tried rooting my S6 since rooting it will disable all future updates.
[Galaxy S6 General] DrearierJester1:
I think you can flash that but make sure to spare the baseband and kernel as the regular 920F international does not support dual sim. Maybe the closest firmware we can get or copy or flash is the g9200 HK.

Anyhow if u failed or if sim2 fails, you can always flash back to original firmware from sammobile.
[Galaxy S6 General] useletters:
Not really concerned about Sim2 though. I think I have to read more about flashing roms, baseband and kernels. :)) I'm used to just reading/watching tutorials but not fully understanding what's happening.. Anyway, to my understanding, if I straight up flash that ROM (not keeping the baseband and kernel), it might work with Sim1 only? Also, by flashing, it will automatically trip KNOX even if reflash the stock ROM from sammobile?

Thank you!
[Galaxy S6 General] DrearierJester1:
Flashing some others official firmware such as from sammobile does not trip knox, flashing unsigned and rooting trips knox. Flashing other regions firmware may disable sim 1&2 or simply sim 2 will not work, its either of the both.

You can go ahead and let me know hahaha so I will follow that route as well.
[Galaxy S6 General] s.mark:
Is S6 duos dual call (dual active)?
[Galaxy S6 General] useletters:
Sammobile has the openline version of the firmware. Can it work with my device even if it's Globe lock? Or should I need to unlock the device first? I'm not really bothered if my device is locked with globe as I do not intend using it with different carrier :)

Haha, I don't think I'll flash or even root the device anytime soon as I have yet to see fully stable or even working custom ROM for our version XD

My only concern are the bloatwares that's why I'm up looking for custom ROMs. Nevertheless, current version of TouchWiz is not really that bad.. :)
[Galaxy S6 General] DrearierJester1:
I have a smart/sun locked s6. If you want to just get rid of Globe pre-installed apps you can change CSC.

Type this on the dialer *#272*your imei# .. By default it is set to GLB since its Globe issued. You can change it to XTC. Then tap install. Once you tap on install your phone will go to download mode and will automatically factoory reset theb it will boot up with a samsung default apps no operator pre installed apps. It will still be locked to Globe though.

Sanmobile FW is for XTC openline and can be flashed to locked phones. W/o issues.
[Galaxy S6 General] useletters:
Ok, that's kind of helpful. But, wouldn't it void my Globe/device warranty? Also, how does warranties work with samsung and/or device from carriers? I have only had process one warranty so far and it is with Apple. Their warranty, from my experience, is international and does not require the receipt. You just have to ship the original box of the device, its contents and of course the device itself to their address. I processed it via email with an Apple Specialist something.

Anyway, have you tried flashing the XTC from Sammobile yet?

EDIT:

Also, I'm up for development if anyone wants to create a custom ROM or whatever specifically for the version of our S6. I just need guidance though, as I have no experience in making such but I'm cool with learning. Thank you.
[Galaxy S6 General] wendysanchez:

How weird that they didn't fix it in the 5.1.1 update!
[Galaxy S6 General] roydok:
I flashed back the Globe 5.1.1 firmware from the French 5.1.1 from Sammobile. Problem is CSC is Thailand. How do I restore the Globe CSC without root? Thanks.
[Galaxy S6 General] mykS6edge:
They even made 5.1.1 more aggressive. This is the main reason why I dont want to flash 5.1.1 yet. Not until a root that doesn't trip knox is available. Plus the fact that 5.1.1 is not really a huge step up. Also, once you update, you can no longer revert back to 5.0.2.
[Galaxy S6 General] prinzhernan:
But didn't 5.1 solve the big memory leak problem?
[Galaxy S6 General] mykS6edge:
Unfortunately, not..
[Galaxy S6 General] roydok:
Yup
[Galaxy S6 General] kisetsu17:
Dropping in--just realized I've been lurking here without giving feedback for the longest time.

I got my S6 flat unit in Globe. It also had a wiggly home button that's very much like that video in YouTube that clicks whenever you tap gently on it. Didn't notice it too much at first but eventually got tired of it. Since it was beyond the 7-day replacement period, I had it checked with the Samsung service center in Megamall. After a bit of negotiation, they agreed to change the front panel of the phone under warranty. Now it's tight, but note that this would effectively mean your phone is getting opened already (for the warranty/mint condition purists which I am slightly).

Also, has anybody noticed if your lock screens cast a gray tint when you use the fingerprint unlock? Small annoyance but it's a big deal especially if you want to take advantage of the SAMOLED blacks.

Thanks for this. I changed the inputs in the build.prop file and it works great. My ram now goes down to 48-55% instead of 80+%. Its definitely faster.

I have a question though. I can't find. "ro.config.dha_th_rate=" in the build.prop file. Is it okay that I'll just add it below?

Thanks again.
[Galaxy S6 General] mykS6edge:
It should be there if you're on 5.0.2.

Not sure with 5.1.1, though..
[Galaxy S6 General] samwise110712:
can anyone upload the stock recovery.img for 5.1.1? I have TWRP and forgot to do a back up of it now I need it to change CSC. Thanks!
[Galaxy S6 General] mykS6edge:
Try these much better settings for balance between multi-tasking and stability:

ro.config.dha_cached_max=15

ro.config.dha_empty_max=30

ro.config.dha_th_rate=1.0

ro.config.dha_lmk_scale=0.400

Then set LowMemoryKiller to "Aggressive" using Kernel Adiutor app, and click 'apply on boot'. This will override the lmk_scale.

No other lines.. just the above-mentioned settings..

Hello kabayans! Does anyone else have the clear view cover scratching the screen issue here? I recently bought my S6 (regular) 3 weeks ago and within 5 days of use, I already had a scratch on my glass screen. I didn't know about the issue prior to buying my s6 with the clear view cover case (I couldn't resist, it looked so good!). I brought my phone back to where I bought it and apparently, having being redirected to samsung service centers, they didn't know the issue and just rejected my unit to be repaired/replaced flat out. So, anyone else having this issue? What did you do? What did your retailer do?

Thanks a lot, fellow Filipinos!

S6 Duos Signal Issues

I got my S6 duos from Globe last May. The moment I received it I noticed it was indicating less signal bars compared in the other phones near me.

Even at 2 bars, people say "number can't be reached" when they try to call me. I've validated this by trying to call from my work phone. This happens randomly without pattern, I'm stuck having a flagship smartphone that can't even receive calls. Sometimes, I can't even make an outgoing call.

I called Globe and they checked all the network settings related to my account. They even did a "reset" on the network for my account.

The places that this has been happening is part of my normal routine and my other phones can receive and make calls, so network should not be an issue here.

I've waited for the update, installed is myself and did a factory reset. STILL THE SAME ISSUE. I took it to the Samsung Service Center in Greenhills and reset my phone. STILL THE SAME ISSUE.

Choosing the 3G network works in stabilizing the reception but is not an option for me since I bought a 4G phone and expect 4G capabilities. I returned my phone to the Samsung Service Center and will get it back on Thursday after some parts replacement.

This is very disappointing for a supposedly flagship phone. I should have gotten an iPhone instead.
[Galaxy S6 General] prinzhernan:
I'm sorry that you got a lemon but that's how it is with all electronics. You should have inspected it when you got it from Globe and you should have not accepted the unit at all. I've been an apple user since the 4s and I got bad phones too even with Apple. It's kind of your fault since you accepted a defective unit. You should always demand for a replacement within the first 7 days. Sorry but using the I should've gotten an apple is a poor excuse for your own fault...

Thank you for your sympathy with the lemon phone I received from Globe. However, I am not using the saying "I should have gotten an apple" as an excuse for anything. It is the outcome of my experience with buying a Samsung S6 from Globe vs my experience with apple phones.

More importantly, a lemon is a lemon, a lapse in the 7 day replacement does not justify it being a lemon.
[Galaxy S6 General] roydok:
Good day. Your S6 is still under warranty from Samsung Philippines for at least a year. Bring your S6 to any Globe shop and mention your concern and request for a warranty check. Globe will issue a document and this document you will bring to the nearest Samsung Repair Center to process your warranty concern. I hope this helps

Hello Everyone!

I have a Galaxy S6 (Globe locked) and purchased an unlock code from safeunlockcode.com which unlocked the phone anyway, I'm now able to use SMART sim cards on my phone to call/text; however data functions are still not working; I can't define the APN settings, it says: "Unable to view the access point name settings. Access is restricted for the current user profile";

Can anyone advise me what to do? I'm on 5.1.1 now; can I flash using the Philippines (Openline) file and my problem should go away?

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S6 General] roydok:
Stick with your current ROM and just wait for OTA updates. Flashing the openline ROM via odin will not unlock your device. Worse it could change your CSC to THL (Thailand) which I'm sure you do not want. Only way to change back is to root your S6.

Since you have a Smart SIM just add the Access Point Manually by going to Settings-Mobile Networks-Access Point Names and press ADD at right upper hand corner. Type info below:

Oh my apologies. Get a Globe SIM. Or in Settings-SIM Card Manager-Data Service Network choose your Smart SIM. Or maybe data connection is not activated in your Smart SIM card.
