will the factory image include a recovery ? or do i need to do that separately ?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bhavstech:
factory image includes everything you dont need to do that seperately!

OK. so i flashed the image and everything worked OK except the recovery which failed ??
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wilbur-force:
the radio flash failed too

"remote flash wipe failure"
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wangdaning:
It sounds like the first time in bootloader you must have used "fastboot boot recovery..." instead of "fastboot flash recovery..."
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupysoup:
Are u using a Windows or Linux pc? If Linux, open a terminal and cd to the directory u downloaded the stock image to, connect ur phone the pc and type "adb reboot bootloader" when the phone reboots type "./flash-all.sh" that should wipe the phone and fix ur issue, it'll flash everything, recovery, rom, radio, and user data
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bhavstech:
did you use flash all.bat or u flash each and everything manually?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GrooddoorG:
Is there a reason you advise against a toolkit? Just curious, since I rely on one heavily and am wondering if it's going to cause problems down the road.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ben36:
Because if you had read the thread on fastboot you wouldn't be making this post right now. My advice is go read it thoroughly. Don't worry. It's far far easier than it first looks. I remember first reading a post about it years ago thinking omg my brain is going to explode! But just follow the instructions and once you've used it once you'll think wow that was easy and never use a toolkit again

I did read that thread....a year ago when I used to do all this manually. Since I discovered the toolkit I haven't had a reason to. Was just curious if there was a technical reason for it or just personal preference.

I have a Nexus 6 that I purchased directly from Motorola and have running on Verizon's network. I have not yet received the Android 5.1 OTA update. Shouldn't I have received it by now? If not, when should I expect it?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RW-1:
No offense intended, but let's answer this question - What version of android SHIPS on Verizon issued Nexus 6's ?

They have no need of an OTA. It comes with LMY47E installed. (if you want a higher build, or 5.1 in general, see below)

You'll have to flash a 5.1 image for it.

Alternatively, you could also try the no SIM installed boot up after a factory reset and see if it gets it from Google.

Probably Never

Unless you want to do the get on wifi and pull the SIM card dance (after you factory flash) you might want to read up on doing it manually yourself.

I recommend using the Nexus toolkit to retain your user data and moving to any version Google has available.

I suppose it couldn't hurt to pull the Verizon SIM, get on wifi, reboot your phone and see what happens.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brocja01:
I'm wondering which version of 5.1 I should be grabbing. I think I'm going to do the side-load instead of pulling my SIM to get it to update to build D. Will build D have the HD voice feature?

What do you guys recommend?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DebianDog:
The only thing that's important is the 98R baseband radio I believe that comes with D and E. once you have that you can flip to any system version after D you would like. I am currently running version i on Benzo and HD voice works fine.

[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hellboy22:
I bought this Lumia 1020 off eBay with a broken screen. When I got it the LCD didn't work so I ordered an all in one piece thinking that would fix everything. I put the screen in last night plugged it into the charger and the windows home button blinked until it buzzed but the screen never lit up. I can hold the camera button and the camera will make noise and the flash will go off but nothing else. I can push the screen buttons and they will vibrate but the screen wont light up. I plugged it into the computer and saw that I was charging and had 20% battery power and climbing. I tried to use the windows phone desktop app but it just told me the phone was locked. I took the phone back apart and realized the proximity sensor ribbon was separated from the front camera ribbon. Could the phone shut the screen down if it doesn't get a signal from the proximity sensor? Any and all help is appreciated and thank you in advance.

this line of the Build.prop: persist.radio.fsg_reload_on=1 reload modem partition from backup of fsg partition to MODEMST1

does that mean that when I setup the device as new and put in my email and restore my settings the device will restore the radio settings as well?

I am sorry, I don't have a clue what this line is meant to do.

Thank you.
[Nexus 6  General] BitNotFound:
If the MODEMST1 partition gets damaged and is unreadable it restoreds it from fsg. It isn't anything that is user configurable, and won't restore radio settings.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] mocsab:
I tried to start the process of unlocking my TMOBILE S6 today - first thing I discovered is that I need to get a new ATT NANO SIM Card - the Note 4 I am using has a Micro SIM - and the S6 uses the smaller NANO SIM CARD.

When I chatted with one of the online "unlock" web sites - they said they are not able to unlock the S6 EDGE because it does not give the user a prompt to enter an unlock code after inserting the ATT Sim Card.

he did not know if this would happen (or not happen) on the regular S6.

I am going to get a nano SD card from ATT and try it today - but after what I heard happened on the S6 Edge - It is not promising - it looks like TMOBILE is trying to close the door on people buying their phones and then immediately using them on ATT or some other provider.

If anyone has any experience they can share it would be helpful - I am going to see what happens later today after I get a new NANO Sim Card from ATT.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] mocsab:
Updating my original post -

I have learned (thru attempting to use an ATT NANO SD CARD - that the only way to unlock the TMOBILE N920T at this time is by using a special AP available from TMOBILE - and then it will only work when TMOBILE has authorized it.

Cellunlockers or any of the other web sites that offer codes to unlock your phone will not work as you never are given a chance to enter an UNLOCK CODE.

I don't know if there are any other options - maybe secret samsung codes - or a special app by one of our illustrious developers - but for the time being, if you have purchased a TMOBILE S6 (like I have) and want to use it on ATT - it is not possible.

I would love to hear from any one who has an idea on what can be done about this (if anything) short of getting TMOBILE to give you an Unlock Code.

(I beleive the current policy at TMOBILE is that they won't give an unlock code until after 3 months of service. I might be wrong on that - but I beleive that is the situation.)

Any suggestions
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] serialtoon:
What if i have been using T-Mobile for a few years now and decide to buy the phone full price. Wouldnt that also unlock the phone? My wife uses T-Mobile on her iPhone 5S and i wanted to buy a S6 Edge and pop her sim card in it, wait a few minutes and request the unlock. Would that work?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] mocsab:
You might be able to do that - best to call Customer Service at TMO
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] greyhulk:
T-Mobile has no idea how to unlock it and they claim that they won't until after the phone officially launches (April 10th). I have been on the phone with them for hours over this.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] shojus:
I'm officially UNLOCKED!

I can tell you that I have had my S6 for about 4 days and I put my prepaid sim card in it instead of the one it came with (had to create a postpaid account so that I could get this phone!). I tried to unlock with the app on the phone and it told me NO, I am not eligible to do that, but I just tried it a 3rd time about 30 mins ago and BOOM! I am permanently unlocked and can confirm that AT&T works great! :) The phone rebooted and it automatically froze the unlock app. LOL I un froze the app and sure enough, I am perm unlocked! Not bad for using the phone for less than a week and not calling T-Mobile even once to ask. Just wanted to give people a heads up in case u wanted to try this yourself with a pre-paid sim (if u have a prepaid account, of course). I love my $30 plan so I will be cancelling my service so that I don't have to pay for anything except for the phone itself. Good luck!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] martinezma99:
Wow! Lucky!

I tried 10 times with an AT&T sim but no luck.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] mocsab:
I don't know if this will work for me but I will try when I get home - Just wanted to confirm - before hitting unlock app - did you install the att SIM card first? Then hit unlock ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] shojus:
Since it's associated with your account u gotta have YOUR SIM card in there in order for the app to know if you are even eligible or not. So, u are correct, u have to unlock it with a T-Mobile SIM card than after it reboots (if successful) then u can put a non T-Mobile sim in. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] mocsab:
My question is.. S

Did your phone say unlocked before or after you put in the Att sim card. Your first post wasn't clear. Also are you rooted or no?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] androidoholic:
What he is explaining is that he had his T-Mobile SIM card in the phone, he then opened the T-Mobile unlock app and tried to unlock the phone. And it told him no. So he tried a few more times, and finally it allowed him to unlock the phone. Then AFTER the phone was unlocked he put his AT&T SIM in and it worked.

The reason behind this is for the T-Mobile unlock app to work it has to check your account to verify that you are eligible for the unlock to occur. The phone will not unlock with any SIM that is not a T-Mobile SIM because it will not be able to verify if it is or is not eligible. And since there is no chance to enter an unlock code there is no need to put your AT&T SIM in the phone until after it is already unlocked. Basically they changed everything.

To be eligible for the unlock from T-Mobile, you must have an account in good standing at least 40 days old, and the device must be paid in full. So my suggestion would be to find a friend or family member that has had T-Mobile for a while and swap their SIM into your phone and do the unlock request, afterwards swap out your AT&T SIM and you should be good to go.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] mocsab:
Thanks for the clarity that was lacking in the original post. Unfortunately I don't know anyone who has tmobile. Oh well... Waiting ain't so bad... :)

Unlock code

I bought an unlock code, as everyone stated the unlock code screen doesn't come up with an ATT sim installed but if you turn the phone on with no SIM in it and the. Go to the phone screen, type #7465625*638*# it will take you to the unlock code screen. I was able to get an unlock successful but when I restart the phone with my ATT sim it still says insert valid sim. Very weird and very frustrating. Have a friend that is prepaid. Trying that tomorrow
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] martinezma99:
I tried too using AT&T sim card but a no go. I did get a successful unlock after entering unlock code but phone still locked. :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] storageviolator:
I got lucky, had a chat with TMOBILE rep and they approved for the unlocK. I only opened the account a few days back. She did say it may take up to 14 days because the unlock cod or the device isn't available in the database yet
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] wahoofan5:
What did you tell them to give you the unlock code/did they tell you how to unlock it?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] wahoofan5:
To unlock a prepaid phone, T-Mobile requires that you put at least $100 in your prepaid account if the account is newer than 1 year old. My question is, have you deposited over $100 in your account, or did you just recently open up the $30 line and you got lucky? Trying to replicate with my $30 plan I just bought
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] shojus:
You are correct, but that is only one of their stipulations... You have to be activated for at least 40 continuous days for the phone you are trying to unlock AND your account must have had at least $100 of funds that have been put on it with the number assigned to the phone you are unlocking. With me, none of those requirements were met and my unlock still went through so I don't really know what the hell happened but it was def not policy. See, I have had the same prepaid number with the same $30 plan for over a year but I have not maintained continuous service. I jump from carrier to carrier so as long as I don't let my number get deactivated then I can keep going back to that plan but if I don't fund my account for over 90 days then my prepaid number gets recycled and I have to get a new sim card to get back on the plan I had. It may seem weird but I have been doing this 4 awhile now so I have caught on to the way T-Mobile works. I just put $30 on my account so that I could upgrade to the S6 but then I was told NO and that I had to wait til they were available at stores and that did not fly with me so I activated a postpaid account in order to get the S6 but I never put the new accounts sim card in my S6, I just immediately put the prepaid sim card from my old account in there and that's the way I got it unlocked. It's confusing but I'm trying to give you the best details I can so everyone knows EXACTLY what I did. Hope that helps... :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] Quickvic30:
Just bought a T-Mobile s6 today and it was unlocked when I purchased it, the guy I bought it from has been with T-Mobile for 5 years and he unlocked it right away when he got the phone. All you really need to do is find someone that has had a T-Mobile account for the said time and pop the sim in ur phone and get it unlocked. Working like a champ on ATT network.

I'm digging around threads and cannot find a sure fire root method for my Sprint Galaxy Tab 4 7" (T237). If someone could point me towards a definitive good method of rooting my device I'd appreciate it. I've rooted almost all of my phones with Odin and never had an issue but can't seem to find anything.

Getting a nexus 6 today coming straight from google play store.

Currently have a verizon note 3 needto activate on my currrent number any tips or tricks i need to know ?

Seems some people get the runaround from verizon trying to activate on thier service.

Is it really as simple as trimmimg my sim to nano size and viola it works?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ooofest:
There's actually a whole topic on your question.

Yes, many people have successfully trimmed their larger SIM to the nano form factor, but some (like me) messed up and should have used a stamp-like cutter, instead.

If you have access to a Verizon nano SIM phone, you could temporarily activate the SIM on your account with their phone, then place the SIM into your Nexus 6. That's what I did, in the end.

Apparently, you can also purchase the nano SIM from a reseller and they could activate it for you, possibly using a valid IMEI that they have on hand, it seems.

Checking out that thread is probably your best bet for more depth of response.

Hello All,

I pre-ordered a green Galaxy S6 Edge from MobiCity because Verizon was not going to carry the Green version of the phone. Before I spend the $800 on the phone, I was wondering if anyone could help me to confirm that the phone will in fact work on verizon's US network...
