[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] lakshesh:
I was facing some serious battery usage problem on my s6 edge.

so i finally decided to check it out

step 1 = I completely drained out my mobiles battery until it didnt got shut down on itself.

step 2 = I charged my phone for 10min which the company claims to be useful for 4hrs of task

so for 10min of charging i got 18% of battery life.

which shows 3hrs 18min of usage and using power saving mode it shows 3hrs and ultra power saving mode shows 7hrs and 19min.

Does anybody has battery problem with their edge ??

I dont play games just normal usage like whatsapp and bbm and sometimes snapchat and insta gram
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] vanessaem:
The battery issue and fixes for it have been discussed a lot on here. There are unrooted solutions and rooted solutions. Please be a bit more specific about your device itself such as whether you're rooted? Did you use CF-Auto-Root? Are you unrooted? Did you flash the OTA update? Giving these types of details will hopefully make it easier to point you in the right direction.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] lakshesh:
I havent rooted it.

My phone is the same as i got it out of the box.. i have only updated all the apps and a firmware update which came automatically when i switched on the device.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] js5752:
Hi all,

I did search before posting this, but couldn't find quite the question/answer I was looking for. I've got a rooted S4 SPH-L720.

I've got a custom ROM installed, Sacs 4.3, and the phone has been fine. I just got the system update downloaded and the button to install it. I've got TWRP as my recovery right now.

Last time I had one of these I just turned off notifications, but wasn't sure if this is an important update, or what it even updates? Is it only for phones running Stock?

Thanks,

-Jeff

Hi just wanting some help from a android guru.

I did update my phones rom to a new update and the next morning somehow it said it failed to encrypt my phone which I did not ask it to.

Now my phone won't work. I can turn it on and get s3 splash screen and it does not go further.

I can get to cwm and download screen

When I try to flash via Odin it fails at nand flash fail.

I have tryed quite a few things. Please look at pic and if anyone can help please.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
Try the rescue firmware and pit file, search general forum. If that falls to flash then first try downgrade to BLFB bootloader.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imation_nz:
Hey

I get nand write fail ?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
Sorry, emmc chip has failed/corrupted try the dead boot recovery but probably time for a new phone.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SirKunon:
Yes, it is sudden death symptom. You need to replace nand chip or whole motherboard but it will cost you ca. 100 bucks. You could try to buy s3 with cracked screen and good motherboard and replace it. But there will be different IMEI and serial number of course but you can replace them with box in any service center. If your warranty is acctual then you should send it to Samsung service center.

It happens offen while upgrading to 4.3 directly from 4.1.2.

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] nikicollazo:
So I messed up pretty badly. I recently bought an HTC One M8 for the ATT network that was previously rooted. I noticed it was on 4.4.2 and wouldn't upgrade to 5.0 so of course I tried to remove root. I went into TWRP recovery (which I know is why it wouldn't update because I didn't have stock recovery. For the life of my I couldn't get ADB to recognize my device to flash it.) I went over to "wipe" did the advanced wipe and ticked all the available options. Now, upon rebooting I noticed that I deleted the entire OS. After trying and trying I couldn't get it to boot past the HTC screen. Finally I figured out how to flash a rom using the information here "http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2736694". After flashing the rom, it was still stuck at the HTC screen when trying to boot. I found some information about extracting the boot.img and flashing it using "fastboot flash boot boot.img"

Now this sort of fixed my problem. After turning the phone on, it stays stuck on the HTC screen until the screen times out. When pressing the power button to wake it up it goes into the setup page and from there to the home screen of the phone. There are apps missing, and no home or return keys on the bottom of the screen. So if I go into settings, I'm stuck there unless I power off the phone, turn it back on, let the screen time out, and wake it up.

Any one have any suggestions? As you could tell I'm not very experienced and would have never bothered with this stuff if the phone weren't already rooted when I bought it. I'd be very happy to buy someone a coffee if they can help me out
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] CavyS:
Best advice would be to just run the AT&T stock RUU. It will return your phone back to 100% stock, from there you can decide if you want to root, use a custom recovery, and install a ROM. But an RUU will be your best bet as its quick, simple, and risk free. You can download the AT&T RUU in the link I posted which will be the latest 5.0.2 Lollipop firmware, its a simple .exe file so all you have to do is connect your phone to your computer and double click the file you downloaded (RUU), it will handle the rest. http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-m8-att/news/

Good luck!

root lollipop

Hi There --- Can someone help me out? I'm trying to find the correct procedure for updating the At&t M8 on lollipop......

I'm not sure if towelroot will temp root on lollipop --- based on what i've read it wont....

Any help is appreciated....i've searched but can't seem to find anything about rooting lolli on the at&t m8....
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
This isn't really related to the OP, so I'm not sure why you posted it to this thread.

I'm confused by the second sentence in your first line. Are you trying to update or trying to root?

Towelroot won't work if the bootloader is locked, that is the whole point of a locked bootloader.

You need to unlock the bootloader. At that point, you can root by a variety of methods. I think towelroot will work (as long as its intended for Lollipop), but you can also just flash a custom recovery and then flash a current version SuperSU (the most common method).

[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] nolife1123:
Kinda sucks that you can either order directly from amazon and wont be able to apply the sale discount, or use the direct one from spigen and have to pay for shipping as you cant use the prime 2 day shipping with it ._.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] ljv:
I was able to order and apply the code just fine through Amazon. Got to use my prime shipping too. You apply the code at checkout. It's under payment options.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] xdm9mm:
Thank you so much for sharing. I still managed to order 4 cases for note 4 eventhough the webaite says it is expired. Hopefully they will acknowledge the order.

[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] borijess:
I got the three cases I ordered today.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] ljv:
I got all five of my cases in too. The new hybrids all are the old style frames where the hole doesn't line up for the Verizon version. Got an email out to spigen to get them replaced.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] mike5026:
Awesome great deal!
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] nolife1123:
Weird, which seller did you select to have the amazon prime shipping + the actual deal available? When i tried the one from spigen but fulfilled by amazon i could only use prime shipping but not the actual code, it gave me no discount for it altho it didnt even say invalid code either. While the actual spigen one doesnt support prime shipping, but the code works well. Would anyone know if its supposed to act like that or was it just weird for non US buyers?

EDIT: tried again, still same thing :(

EDITv2: seems neither amazon nor spigen actually ship to Croatia, oh well
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] thisguyinoc:
Worked on Amazon! For 3 cases for my Note 4 for $12.30!
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] UCSB:
Thanks!!! Still working on Amazon ... picked up 3 more cases! Good catch! Sort of makes you wonder how much these cases really cost to produce ... or are we just their free advertising campaign.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] ljv:
I'm guessing it's US deal only.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] ljv:
I thought the second thing. Bet it costs them $1
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] xdm9mm:
Mine are all here too, Tough Armor, Slim Armor, and Neo Hybrid.

They all fit nice but if you use the heart beat sensor, you are out of luck because it will not work with any of the cases. I am going to make a hole on the Neo Hybrid which is now my favorite amongst the three above.

Can anyone tell me where or what tool I can use to make a perfect circular hole, just like some cases for the cRapple phones? My dremel did not do a nice job :D :
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] jazzmachine:
I would use heat, like a cheap or junked soldering iron to clean up the cutout area (just be careful and try to avoid breathing in plastic fumes ;) also you can easily reshape the plastic to modify the hole if it's not as clean as you'd like). I use this technique quite often on DIY projects (including modifying phone cases to permanently attach those cheap rubber port covers - also for doing HeadFi-style mods to headphones if I need to create tiny, clean, circular holes in the grills or something). It's the best and definitely easiest method I've found for such work :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] egren58:
Exacto knife and heat
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] ljv:
Got this response back from Spigen and they are correct. Just made a test call to the wife and no issues with mic. I guess with the tpu cutout being big, it doesn't completely seal the mic.

Thank you for contacting Spigen Support. We would be happy to assist you!

After reviewing the details of your order and the photo, the Note 4 Neo Hybrid cases you have received are the updated versions for the Verizon.

The frames actually do have small holes, but the TPU should have the bigger holes just like the Slim Armor if you take a look at the tpu of the Neo Hybrids.

Hope this helps and please feel free to contact us again if you have any other questions.

Have a wonderful day.

All is good if you see this for the neo.

then i installed TWRP Recovery and then i was not able to backup any stuff to External SD Card so i installed some Boot.img which i exactly dont remember which i installed from watching any youtube video then later some problem occured It showed some error like "firmware upgrade encountered an issue" then i flashed Philz touch recovery which then worked and i was able to backup my data but i was not able to Boot into my Original ROM or couldnt see an option for that. Then i downloaded The Ozcan V6.3 ROM and tried installing it it succesfully installed but after that its not able to boot uo and stuck at SAMSUNG Logo Screen.

Please Help me What to DO !!!.

Thanks In Advance
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
If your device can still get into download mode, download the stock Android 5.x image for your device and flash it using Odin. That will get you back to square one so you can start over with rooting and installing the custom ROM.

I just installed recovery back and then tried to install ROM the ROM was also stuck on the Boot Loop I think my boot loader isnt unlocked and ima stuck there because of that
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] white7561:
I9500 isnt bootloader locked. And u must be flashing the boot.img on other partition that not in the odin package. So u must search how to repartition ur device. But. U MUST VERY CAREFULL WITH REPARTITION OPTION! U MIGHT BRICK UR DEVICE IF U DONT UNDERSTAND WHAT U DOING!. And if u wanna flash recovery and boot.img or bootloader thing. U must ONLY flash for I9500 version!. And if u successfully repartition ur device. U will lose all internal storage too. Ok good luck
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
You would know if you were carrier unlocked as you'd be able to put a SIM from a different carrier into the S4 and have the device work. To get you the correct ROM we still need to know your carrier.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
You can't flash the PIT file with TWRP.

Do you have Odin? Do you have a copy of your stock ROM, downloaded either from Sammobile or samsung updates? If not, you'll need to get them. You then flash the firmware through Odin WITHOUT the PIT file. This should restore your device to operating condition. Afterward, you will of course need to root the S4 and flash a copy of TWRP to be able to install a custom ROM.

Here's the solid orange Slickwrap color with my Ringke Fusion (case fits very tight.. had to force it on and it caused a few small tears on the sides of the skin). Install was super easy and for the screen protector I just cut a Healing Shield so that it fit perfectly in the opening. If the screen protector covers anything other than the actual screen then it will not work with the front skin.

The only issue I have is getting the corners to sit down on 1 side... I think it will eventually flatten out as long as I hold it in place a few more times. Really liking the look.
