[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bitwiser:
You must have a bad unit or power saving mode going crazy or something. I have the M8 and M9 and the edge screen is night and day brighter. Like not even in the same league brighter and more vibrant. It makes the M9 look dull and lifeless.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdunker26:
Yeah mine is a bad unit too. It's going back tomorrow. I've played with the power saving and all display modes. No go.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bitwiser:
I have the M9 in my hand right now. Camera is awful and it does have heating issues. Always warm. I do like sense 7 over touchwiz but I can't handle the crappy camera. Look at the photo comparison here http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s6-edge/general/photos-comparisons-s6-vs-t3076641
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gatortribe:
Let me know if it's any different with the new unit. If so, I may have to send mine back too.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdunker26:
So I grabbed a flashlight and turned on auto bright. I put the flashlight over the sensor and the screen got extremely bright. Way more than having the manual setting at it's highest level. Maybe they'll update the software so we can turn the screen up to where we want it.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bitwiser:
I can't use Samsung's "auto" mode for brightness. Always too dim for me. I have been using Lux Auto Brightness (paid version although there is a free version you can try) for a long time and I find it does a much better job than any "auto" mode from manufacturers. I think they make it as dim as possible to help with battery stats. But it is pointless if my battery lasts twice as long and I can't see the screen LOL
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdunker26:
Thanks. I'll try that.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gatortribe:
Yep, just look at this image:

[IMG="Brightness Levels"]http://images.anandtech.com/graphs/graph9111/73044.png[/IMG]

I really hope there's a hack that gets max brightness without auto brightness. I stay in a dark environment so it always keeps it on the lowest brightness, waaaaay too low, especially compared to my computer. I want the max brightness (I know, I know, bad for eyes, whatever), I mean, that's what the slider should do...
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bitwiser:
try lux auto brightness. You can set your values to what you want in each environment and time of day. Love it for fine tuning how my auto brightness works. The only issue with the edge is the screen does not blur when you swipe out your contacts from the edge. Hopefully they will fix that soon.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] wallacengineering:
I decided to un-root and push the Lollipop update today, but it took all day thanks to alot of issues. I figured I would start this thread to help others along with upgrading from KitKat.

So alot of the tutorials you will come across for un-rooting and flashing back to stock using ODIN, so your phone will update, then rooting Lollipop so you can push custom ROMS are INCORRECT. After updating to Lollipop, alot of tutorials said to re-flash the stock Lollipop firmware, then immediately flash CF-Auto-Root and then TWRP Recovery. This is WRONG, for two reasons. Firstly, the .tar file used for flashing Lollipop STOCK is the INCORRECT file. I visited FIVE tutorials and every time I would get Force Closes or get stuck in bootloop, this is because if you watch carefully your phone will name itself NOTE 4 instead of 3 by default after flashing firmware from the links. I didnt catch on to what was going on for over 5 hours as I tried again and again with different methods and then following instructions Step-by-Step all unsuccessfully until it hit me. ALL OF THE LINKS ARE POINTING TO THE WRONG FIRMWARE, instead of flashing Note 3 Firmware, you flash Note 4 Stock Lollipop Firmware, which as you can imagine, causes SERIOUS issues with your phones system.

To fix this problem, find the KitKat NF9 4.4.2 Firmware and flash that, then allow your device to update ITSELF to Lollipop VIA official T-Mobile OTA. This is what worked for me. After updating, then I simply use CF-Auto-Root and then TWRP flashes in NORMAL FASHION, allowing restarts IN BETWEEN FLASHES, clearing cache/dalvik after each install, and allowing 10 mins of settle time after every boot. Then I installed a Custom ROM and Mods, and now it all works perfectly.

Let me know if this helps or if you have experienced similar issues.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] PanchoPlanet:
What are the links to all these incorrect firmwares?

Posting the links would be more informative than suspicions.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] AxAtAx:
Yes, could you post the links that you say have the issues?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] wallacengineering:
Sure thing guys, A good example would be this guide here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2672393

Really great guide, makes everything nice and easy, until you get past flashing the Lollipop Stock firmware VIA THIS LINK: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-N900T/ in one of the very first seps.

If you download the N900TUVUFOB6 (Lollipop) Firmware and flash it, you will get alot of random force closes once the ROM boots and settles. If you pay attention after flashing, you will note the device name defaults to Note 4, and there's your clue.

I still cant believe Ive been working on this phone for the past 13 hours trying to get everything working properly. Happily I have found a ROM I like that is INSANELY FAST AND STABLE and I've installed all the Mods that I want. All I need to do at this point is re-download all my apps and set all the settings.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] AxAtAx:
I just put that stock rom on my wifes phone a few days ago, and it defaulted to Note 3 on hers. well, never mind, as you have seem to have got it rolling now.:good::good:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] boofydon:
Can i ever unbrick my note 3

Frustrated at the moment. I've been trying to unbrick my note 3 for 2 days without any luck. I switched it off after after a week of rooting it and bang it wouldn't go past the samsung logo, it restarts itself automatically without going past the samsung logo. I've downloaded countless version of kitkat stock firmware from different sources for my sm-N900T, flashed with odin more than 10 times, followed every instruction about unbricking.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Ravoz88:
Do you have stock recovery installed and can you get to it? You might want to try wiping cache and doing a factory reset. If that doesn't fix it then maybe try downloading a stock firmware from Sammobile and flashing it with Odin. You might have have an incompatible app that was installed with a previous rom and a wipe of the Data partition might be needed. You will lose all of your data and apps though.

Next step I'd do if none of that worked would be flashing twrp and wiping data, cache and dalvik and hope...

Good luck.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] boofydon:
Thank you for your time. I flashed it with a new stock from sammobile but it's still in a boot loop state even though odin always show pass. And when I flashed it with twrp my note 3 was unable to enter recovery mode.

I'm pretty sure its set to 2.4, I'm using the app called wifi tether router. Because i can't get into the tether settings because of xposed.
[General Questions and Answers] Pawprints1986:
I am just wondering, with being rooted, if that somehow means there is some way to remove factory words??

i use swype, i LOVE swype,,,, but often, very often, when i swype "getting" it puts "ferrying". I will never in legit conversation use the word ferrying, ever.

any way to get rid of it?? I tried the long holding while highlighted and stuff that you can find on google... none of it works
[General Questions and Answers] techno_nerd:
The stock user dictionary is not supposed to be edited, so I would install custom user dictionary from the play store or search for an apk package. But if you don't want to do that, you can go to your language and input settings and edit your personal dictionary.
[General Questions and Answers] Pawprints1986:
even if i were to put "getting" into my personal dictionary... "ferrying" is legally a word under the factory dictionary which would still be in use.... so how would that help??

Well, if the autocorrect is set to a strict sensitivity, you may be able to lower it to get the desired result.

In this comment, is a procedure to get root on ATT S5 Lollipop. I haven't tried it myself, might do it in a few hours. You do need to be rooted beforehand.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] jrocx:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] PS4AndroidHacker:
I think that may be rooting it on a SS rom slot,not the actual OS on the phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] 122ninjas:
It seems hes just replacing the backup's system partition with the Lollipop one, restoring and wiping, so wouldn't that be the stock slot?

EDIT: Screwed up the quote my bad
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] 122ninjas:
It seems the commenter was confused on devices. I was reading the s4 forums and they restore a backup of rooted lollipop, which we don't have. Maybe someone brave can try with rooted 4.4.4 and flash ota over Odin like the post

Not yet. There is this news though. from muniz_ri

As far as I know, there is no way to root an unrooted OC4. But it has been done to downgrade to root, but not successfully repeated the last I read. It has been said many time for this and prior OTA updates. Don't apply the update until root is confirmed. I like to download the update and upload the .cfg file to help those who work on rooting processes. I think Muniz noted that they advanced the Qfuse in this bootloader so it is near impossible to downgrade in order to root. ( I say near impossible because of the 1 report of a successful downgrade)

Hello!

I'm a happy new Nexus 6 owner. ;)

Since 5.1, it's possible to use voice commands to turn on/off WiFi, bluetooth, and flashlight.

I have a problem. Bluetooth and flashlight work here perfectly with voice commands, but I NEVER can turn on/off WiFi. Any idea?

Thank you very much!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
just tried. i said "turn on my wifi", and it did, sorry. try clearing all your data for google now and try again?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glaucod:
Thank you for your reply.

It doesn't work. G Now just searches the web for "turn on my WiFi".

I cleared the cache. And I'm running a fresh new install. (After upgrading to 5.1, I had a severe battery drain. So I wiped all my data to re-install everything again.)

dont factory reset, you could have a different version based on where you are.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glaucod:
I will reset. I've just checked the Play Store, Portugal store, and the version number is the same as yours. I shouldn't have a different number.

Considering that I have a huge battery drain, I accept now that there's something very wrong here.

Thank you for your very special attention!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glaucod:
Hey, good news, [MENTION=1811927]simms22[/MENTION]!

Everything is fine now. And I did NOT reset the phone.

Based on YOUR tip, I opened Google App in Settings > Apps and selected "Manage Space". Then: "Clear Google Search Data" + "Clear Launcher Data" + "Clear All Data", just to be sure.

After this, my home screen was reset. I organized it all again. And then... BANG! I turn on/off WiFi too! :cool:

Even better: until now, that battery drain is gone! I can't believe!

The app version is still different. Very strange. But all is working fine. That's waht matters. :)

But i'm still left with the problem where on an incoming call the ringtone doesn't play.

In "sounds and notifications" on the incoming call option when I press play nothing happens with whichever ringtone I select. However on other alerts its fine.

[EDIT] I've just realised that I can't change any option in Sounds and Notifications. Even when I press the OK button it loads but it doesn't close and no alerts or any notification changes. However I've tested some notifications just to see if the play button actually plays the tone that is selected and it does play but on incoming call alert I can't get anything to play. Either way whatever I change in SOUNDS AND NOTIFICATIONS I can't save it and I cant close it.

Very wierd....Any ideas..?
