[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FrankSpank:
Try holding the 3 buttons to get into download mode till you reach download mode. What I did is I released them when the black screen appeared. That just makes your phone reboot again. So hold it till you reach download mode. Then this worked for me:

[Sprint LG G3] tt c6:
As a buyer trying to decide between a LG G3 or LG G4 or Samsung S5, I have been reading online that the LG G3 has a defective case design that results in cracks that are not a result of drops and abuse.

http://xdaforums.com/tmobile-lg-g3/general/lg-replacing-g3s-cracks-microphone-t2875512

Has LG re-engineered and redesigned upgraded NEW parts that will NOT crack once the fix has been applied?

Or, is LG just replacing defective cases with the same defective parts that will eventually crack again?

What is LG's current process and timeline and customer costs associated with this repair?

If taken to a Sprint corporate store, what is Sprint's current process and timeline and customer costs associated with this repair?

Thank you.

PS

I refuse to use a case with the G3 because it is already TOO WIDE from left to right.

70mm or less should be the max width of these phones.
[Sprint LG G3] joeyhdownsouth:
I just took my thin case of today to clean under it. I found a few cracks in the back cover as well. Also, the stock blueish camera lens scratch real easy. I have replaced lens a few times already with aftermarket ones, that don't scratch near as easy.

I had cracks in my Sprint G3 and sent it in to LG and they fixed it free of charge. At first they said I had to pay for shipping there, but then I sent them pictures and the they sent me a shipping label. Phone came back in a little over a week crack free and charged nothing.
[Fire TV General] wastate2014:
Got a update this morning. I can see they updated the external storage with better control. Anyone see any other major improvements? The thing I find is funny is how they waited for a year to add many of the features that should have been included in the original box. The hardware is getting outdated already?
[Fire TV General] porkenhimer:
The hardware is fine. Not everything relies on specs. Sure there will be other devices that are faster with more features in the future, but the Fire TV will last as long as it can be used. Look at the 1st generation Apple TV, I can still use mine, and OSMC is about to be released that will add new life to a device that is "outdated". Also there are a lot of devices that get released that have features that are added later. There are tons of android TV boxes out there that never made use of their USB port, and even more that have ethernet ports that never ever had support added for them. At least Amazon gives us frequent updates and has gone above and beyond to make their closed source device bettter for the consumer. Its not so closed anymore. Even Apple just got around to fixing the wifi problem on the iphone 6 the other day. There are always things that do not work when devices get released. The N64 did not even perform as advertised unless you went out and bought an addon to the device when it was first released and it took them a while to add the part and sell it with the device. Look how long it took apple to give people the feature of sending and recieving multimedia messages, even though it had a camera you still couldn't send pictures unless you hacked your device. All companies do this and I am sure there are reason they have for doing this and it has nothing to do with the device not being ready at release time. I can think of more than 20 Android boxes that had features that didn't work that either never recieved one update ar at best recieved a couple updates, which never fixed what didn't work. Amazon is top notch when it comes to Android TV boxes, and making sure things work as they should.
[Fire TV General] AFTVnews.com:
Are you talking about version 51.1.5.0_user_515030720? What "better control" for USB storage are you referring too? The only difference I could find with this update was the ability to "favorite" photos.
[Fire TV General] wastate2014:
Yes it is 515030720. I was only wondering what changes came with the update as I could not find the release note? My biggest thing has been external storage. I was happy they added finally. 20 gigabytes of games already on flash drive :)
[Fire TV General] skeptic_always:
So this is a new new update? As in, one update enabled USB drives and this is an update to that? I don't suppose this lets us move the extra downloaded data files to USB from the menu?

Out of curiosity, has anyone tried just moving an obb file or data directory to USB then linking to it from the original location (ln -s)?

edit: ln -s doesn't work. Is /sdcard fat32 as well???
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frankie_p:
Good day to all the people using the Honor 6 H60-L04,

I currently have a Moto X 2013 and I love almost everything about it. The one thing that really makes me mad about the phone is the battery. I can get 6:30 hours of SoT during normal use, but during Standby / Sleep mode the phone eats a minimum of 2.0% to 3.0% drain per hour. It does not matter if the phone is even in Airplane mode, it drains about the same.

Now, I am looking for a phone that will not need to have everything turned off just to have 1 day of regular use and to have a small drain per hour when the phone is not being used.

Could some users share their average Standby time on their Honor 6? Other than not being splashproof (Why couldn't Huawei follow the steps of the Honor 3?), the Honor 6 is the most attractive option for me right now due to price and performance, just need to know how is the avg drain per hour when screen off is to make a decision.
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yaroslao26:
At night my battery was eat 1%
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frankie_p:
So in about 8hrs it drops 1%? If you use GSAM Battery Monitor it would say a little more than 0.1%/hour or similar?
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theoneofgod:
Running the latest CM11. I lose maybe 4% every 24 hours in standby. My last battery cycle to 4% was 6 hours screen time, 2 days 14 hours total.
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] basvanasperdt:
I received the Honor 6 on Friday, very happy with it! Tried this last night, and between 1am and 9 this morning it was only 1%, with wifi on all the time.
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackalice:
Is CM11 that much better than the stock ROM as far as battery life goes?
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nrpetonr:
about the same for me
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frankie_p:
Hi,

Question, was it 1% battery drop total from 1AM till 9AM, so for example from 100% to 99% or a 1% battery drop per hour every hour from 1AM till 9AM, so 100% to 92%
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frankie_p:
Hi,

Those are some solid numbers. Would you consider yourself a heavy user? How did you use the phone during that period of time?
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theoneofgod:
A lot of idle time when not using the phone. But when using the phone it's mostly for browsing.
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] basvanasperdt:
1% in total. I went from 27 to 26% overnight.

Still very happy with the H60 battery-life, I consider myself as a heavy user (whatsapp, facebook, twitter, etc) and I get around 6h of screen-on time.
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frankie_p:
Wow,

that is awesome. Too bad I found out that the phone is very weak in the sound department. I saw samples of videos taken in noisy environments (concert) and the sound was awful. Also, some reviews and users report that the sound coming out of the headphone jack is also of very low quality compared to other phones on the same price range.
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fever003:
I'm a medium to heavy user at home, browsing on Chrome, WhatsApp, YouTube. I usually get 6 hours of on screen time on heavy use with WiFi.

But if I am at the office, I will put my phone on 2G GSM just for replying messages and this will make my phone last for 1 day 12 hours at most with probably 3 hours on screen time.

Sound wise, the speakers at the back of the phone is not that great because it is a mono speaker. I am not so much of a music/sound person so that does not bother me as long as the volume is loud enough for me to hear my phone rings.

Earphones/headphones wise, i am happy with the quality of sound and I am only using my cheap CreaTive earphones.
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frankie_p:
Thanks for the feedback. For the battery, it is odd that it would last so little on 2G considering what was said before that the phone has excellent stand by time battery usage. If I was you, I would check if your phone is going into sleep mode while at the office, it could be something is keeping it awake.

For the sound, I am a heavy music listener and this is a deal breaker. On top of that, the audio during video recording is bad, and you won't notice until that special moment when you want to record a video and then you play it back and the sound is horrible with clipping and distortion (like on my old Galaxy S2).
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fever003:
Yeah like i said, replying messages on office days. So i always check my phone every minute. The culprit is too many incoming WhatsApp Group chats. :(

I've tried using the protected app feature and kill all background apps. It does make a big difference, i have seen my phone going more than 2 days unplugged with battery life still remaining more than 10%.

So it depends on the user really. Im too lazy to kill apps nowadays, because to me 1full day of battery life with 3G & medium usage is good enough. .
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aatifaneeq:
I have bought brand new honor 6, 2 weeks ago..

I have noticed that its draining very fast. 5-6% just 6hours night standby. no Wifi. 0 App is running after screen turned off.

Closed all recent open apps from history.

See two screenshots.

3% drained, for 28 minutes of wifi on (use for just making screenshots)

Ps:I have upgraded on marshmellow

Any solution will appreciated.
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MaRtYy01:
Battery is ok,but I dont count every single percent and on latest version of the stock rom screen on time is around 5 hours when you install all your apps and stuff.Phone is good overall,but its not worth upgrading from moto x 2013.Better stick with it and if you care about battery that much,install a custom rom/kernel or get powerbank.

Samsung has released a replacement for KIES to use on newer phones. It's called Samsung Smart Switch. There are the App versions you run on the phone, and there are the Windows and Mac versions you run on your PC. This is a run through on the Windows PC on how to restore your Firmware in case you've Borked your phone. I actually recommend you do this, even if you have not done anything wrong to your phone. My phone ran really hot, laggy, and the battery life was horrible. After flashing the stock firmware, it now runs cool, smooth, and fast.

Stuck at 51%???

Did you loose root after doing this ? Did you re-root if you did loose it ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] SuperSport:
Yes, root is lost. No, I didn't re-root. Currently, I'm happy with how my phone is running. Others have rooted again and then replaced recovery with stock And they claim good results.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] luigic81:
Thanks for this!! Just to verify, with this tool including the update, root still works correct? I came from att to t-mobile just so I could root this phone. So I want to make sure I'll be able to immediately root again lol! I haven't taken the update yet.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] SuperSport:
I personally have not rooted again after using this. Others have said they rooted again and the phone stayed working well. I believe they replaced the buggy Recovery with the Stock Recovery afterwards. Not sure if that has anything to do with stability or not.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] kmatthews:
I've install Smart Switch and my S6 Edge connects fine but when I click on more and Emergency software recovery and initialisation the app hangs (freezes) and does nothing. The app is non responsive it just sits there until I force close.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] kmatthews:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] SuperSport:
Maybe uninstall and re-install. That sounds like a software/pc issue.

Do you get the same thing if your phone is not plugged in? If it works without the phone plugged in, maybe try another cable. Or at least confirm you have the Original Samsung Cable being used.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] kmatthews:
I've done that several times already and it still does the same thing. Thanks for helping
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] SuperSport:
What about right clicking on the Icon and Running as Administrator? Also, have you confirmed the drivers are installed correctly and showing in Device Manager when your phone is plugged in? "SAMSUNG Android ADB Interface"
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] ShermCraig:
My experience is less than perfect. I did a backup using SS, did the "emergency software recovery and initialisation", and then restored my backup using SS. The backup supposedly restored successfully, but all it did was restore my apps. My homescreen is not restored despite selecting all, nor are my 5 different google accounts restored. Wish I knew this would happen - I'd have thought twice about doing it.... :rolleyes:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] SuperSport:
That's good info for others. I set mine up as a new device when I went back. Only thing I recovered was my text messages.

I've found in the past that when recovering, it sometimes brings back the issues from before, so I rarely restore anything except messages. I take screen shots of my home screens and the app drawer so I can put it back manually as I had it. I find this gives me less future headaches.

Also, for what it's worth, the S6 is NOT the only phone I've had that benefits from a fresh flash when new. I've had Windows Phones and other Android Phones that run MUCH better afterwards. I make it a standard thing to flash them within the first couple days of getting them if it's possible. The outcome is often positive. On occasion, no difference has been noticed.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Bernardos70:
It fixed all of my phone problems AND the restore facilitated setting it up again without bringing back any of the original lag/clumsiness. Fantastic fix, thanks for sharing!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] bubblebuddyi:
Can anyone confirm that there's no battery issues after a few days? Are you leaving VOLTE enabled?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] SuperSport:
I will say I think the battery is as good as it will get with this release of firmware. I leave all my radios on and VoLTE is enabled. With that said, it lasts nowhere near as long as an iPhone 6 or LG G2. So far I can live with how it's lasting, but I do hope it will be fixed in future releases.

Yeah, I don't understand why some are getting it to work and some not. It really should not be this hard. But, it is brand new software and new phones, so I give them a little break for that and expect it to be worked out before too long.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] flameinthefire:
Yes i've tried Odin already but the battery issue still persists. This is getting beyond annoying at this point. I don't know what else i could try to get past that damn 51% mark

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] palosjr:
For the guys that have gotten it to work, are you on WiFi or connected via ethernet?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] SuperSport:
After Odin, did you Clear Cache and Factory Reset in Stock Recovery? It must be done in Stock Recovery to get results.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] SuperSport:
Direct Cable Ethernet.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] palosjr:
I wonder if that has any impact, when j tried yesterday I was on wifi. I'm running smoother now via Odin but if I try again I'll do it via ethernet to test if someone doesn't beat me to it.
