[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dandman808:
The audience groans as the OP dusts this thread off and crawls back for a fresh dose of why-am-I-still-awake...

I fell asleep playing a game. At least that is what my sin seemed to be. While waiting for my little one to fall asleep, I was fadoodling around (with an established game that has sucked-up more of my life than staring at pictures of Salma Hayek) and got bagged by the sandman. Meanwhile, the game ate my battery and the phone powered down. Next thing I know, I wake up (with a crimp in my neck for sleeping on the floor) to a dead phone.

Figuring that this was simply a case of a dead battery, I plugged it in, felt that quick bzzzzt, saw the "Samsung Galaxy S4" graphic, then the screen went black. ...it was the lack of a flashing LED that queued me into the fact that something was amiss. Well that and the fact that it wouldn't boot.

So I cracked open the case (nicely of course) and pulled the battery. When I put the battery in, I was greeted with that friendly bzzzt again (I do believe that is a technical term), saw the logo, then nothing. I kept the phone plugged in to give the battery time to charge a bit more and tried again - with the phone still plugged in. Same result.

So I tried power+volume down. Got the warning screen, then went black after about 3 seconds. Tried again and pressed 'volume up' to confirm, got the 'downloading' screen, then it went black.

I tried doing the same thing with the phone plugged in and couldn't even get a Logo splash. So I tried the impossible combo of a near simultaneous battery insert/volume down/power plug insert / volume up - and after succeeding at this death-defying feat, I got a black screen.

I am at a loss. What did I do? I am not even sure for what I should be slapping myself. The only thing I could think of was that I did recently update the SU binary (from within SU itself), but while that did happen within the past 24 hours, it was at least 18 hours ago, so I am not sure if that is the culprit.

Any thoughts? Is the fact that I can't seem to get anything onscreen or to download mode an indicator of a somehow newly-created high-tech brick?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dandman808:
With the addition of a home button press (I think), I was able to get the downloading screen up and on. I tried to get Odin to flash CF autoroot (download of stock ROM in progress), but couldn't get it to complete, so I rebooted the phone and I am back to a BBQ with no coals. I even at one point got that battery graphic to come on - you know the one where you plug in a phone that is turned off. Then the graphic froze and all I could hear was my daughter singing "Let it go.... Let it goooooo...."

I have tried:

Vol Down + power / Vol Down + Home + Power / Vol Down + Home

Warning screen came on, then screen turned off​

Home / Home + Power

Got the Samsung Galaxy S4 Splash Screen, then screen turned off​

Vol Down + Home + Power then Vol Up

Got to "Downloading" screen, then screen turned off​

If I tried any of the above while quickly inserting the charging cord, it made no difference other than I had to unplug the power cord before I could try anything again (otherwise nothing would happen at all)

Each time I get to the Downloading screen and get the plug inserted, a window will pop up and let me know the phone was detected - which would quickly disappear when the screen turns off. I have left the phone plugged in just in case it was charging anyway - doesn't seem to have made a difference.

At this point, I have been sitting so long that I have semi-permanent chair-prints in my backside. I gotta get up... I'll try again when the stock ROM finishes downloading... (a remote THANK YOU to ShinySide for maintaining those links!!)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dandman808:
I kept fiddling with different combinations above. At one point I got the battery graphic to work semi-consistently, so I tried a reboot and it took! I made sure everything that is important was backed-up. The battery was at 14% and charging (albeit slowly). Perhaps because I was backing things up and deleting things to clear space, or perhaps I was just paranoid.

The LED was on, so I tried to soft power-off. The screen turned off, but would not turn back on. I press & held the power button and got a bzzzt as if I turned it off. The battery charging animation was going on but the LED was on a steady red. I press & held the power button, got the brief Bzzt and the SG4 splash, then the screen turned off and I am back to where I was.

I have no idea what is going on - could it be a virus? I do have lookout installed (assuming that is worth the paper it isn't printed on)

I am at a loss...

I think it could be a battery problem. Do you have another battery to try?

[Nexus 6 Android Development] androidx213:
Flashed the recommended Gapps above and set up kept force closing after I hit OK on the Enter Name screen. Tried again flashing Euroskank Gapps and everything seems to be OK. Other than that I haven't ran into any issues.:good:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ace312:
Oh! Thanks for pointing out ;) and sorry for those gapps! How's the ROM?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] androidx213:
Honestly those Gapps could work just fine and is just of one of those random anomalies. Been flashing since the original Droid X days and know sometimes sh*t happens. lol :cyclops: Still setting her up but everything seems on par. Rom's nice and fluid and seems to be purring along. Had to change T-Moblie APN, but LTE fired up in less than second afterwards. I have had trouble with CM 5.1 roms until I flashed this one. Thanks for the hard work! Looks like FlexOS is going to be my new daily driver.

Brilliant ROM. Just got my N6 a few days ago been trying a lot of ROMs and this one stands out. So smooth and fast no issues at all. Thanks for the great work 5stars.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] SFG:
Trying this ROM out for the first time and upon initial boot, it is encrypting my phone ?

Otherwise, so far its running smooth. Will give it a good test over the next couple days.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] skinzy98:
Just got a new nexus 6, and I only have one problem, one is that sometimes my data my data won't cut on no matter what. I have to reboot the phone.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Constrabus:
I've had this issue recently since I was coming from 5.0, like you may be too since your phone is new.

Try updating to the bootloader and radio to the latest "5.1 compatible" images.

If you still have issues, you may have to wipe again or try another ROM.

For example, I had complete loss in data after updating until I updated APNs, tried new ROMs, etc.

Good luck :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TecTrax:
Hi guys :)

I have a one problem. My HTC M7 has battery problem or something like that. It won't charge when it's powered on. To charge it i must power it off. Also I discovered that speaker automatically turns on when I call someone. I "found" some kind of a fix... If I charge it to 100% (after draining battery to 0 and FACTORY reseting phone) then phone charges normally and speaker doesn't turn on from itself. It lasts for 2 week and then all over, factory reset, drain till 0 and charge. Is there some other fix besides that.

sidenote if it can help :D: one time my dad connected my phone to Nokia Lumia 630 charger and then phone charged while it was on and i didn't needed to factory reset phone, it was "reseted" xD

I tried and it didnt help: POWER BUTTON+VOLUME UP+VOLUME, changing charger, wipe cache

Is it possible to use adaway without root?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] nateohio:
I wish there was but as of right now no it does bit
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] VinceOB:
I use Adguard. No root required.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] oconnell84:
I can't find adguard in the app store.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] VinceOB:
You wont find it in the store. Google Adguard. You have to download from their site.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] dsmendiola:
only thing on the S6 that suffers from ads is the chrome browser.

i miss my adaway, but an easy workaround is to go to chrome settings and turn off JAVA.

This will kill 90 percent of the ads if not all, only draw back is some websites wont work properly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] BranC85:
Does adguard work as well as adaway? Does it block the annoying popup and banner ads inside of apps? I was using adblock plus with and without root on my previous phone(one m7) and it was just terrible.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Rafael4096:
Thank you for this!

Made a huge difference!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] VinceOB:
It works, but not as good as the root ones.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Cusa:
oh god, I cannot live without adaway, it's just impossible. We badly need root.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] steelersmb:
I purchased the full version of AdGuard and lately though I have been getting disconnected when making calls. I disabled AdGuard and this problem went away.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Cusa:
Just tried adgurd and it's crap.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] mpetruzz:
Yeah I'm not feeling adguard. Geuss I'm just spoiled from having root for so long.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] stanfna:
100% agree. I only had it installed on my phone for about 9 minutes! ha ha
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Cusa:
LMAO, just installed it and uninstalled it within a minute. Pure crap.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] natypes:
Just installed it. So far so good. Idk what the negative remarks are about yet.

What sites are you still getting ads on? They're gone here and Android authority.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] stanfna:
i never even opened up the browser. i just didn't like all the stuff that seemed like it needed to run on my phone .
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] natypes:
I saw that too, but I read many good reviews to worry about that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] steelersmb:
Try sending a text message. Mine will not send with Adguard installed. I'm talking about the full version though, to block ads within apps as well as the browser. It doesn't work. They are trying to figure out why but no luck so far.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] natypes:
I noticed yesterday. I guess it works if you want to just browse, but it's limited to that.

We really want to fix that verizon-sms issue but we can't test it on our side (just don't have verizon here).

If you can help us in testing that issue please PM me or send an email to am at adguard.com.

---------- Post added at 12:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:22 PM ----------

What's wrong with it?

Permissions we need:

INTERNET, ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE, ACCESS_WIFI_STATE - that's obviously must-have for network filtering app

RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED - to autostart on device boot

WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE - to store filters and write log file

GET_TASKS - to check which process we filter

VIBRATE - for notifications when new version is available

Any recourse for those of us in China who already needed to have a vpn on all the time to deal with the ridiculous firewall... Actually kinda ironic - one vpn to unblock things, another to block other things :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] avatar_adg:
Adguard is able to work along with some VPN if you use "Proxy" filtering mode.

The only problem here is that this requires root access.
[Xposed General] Radamantys-N7000:
I am having problems with some evidence of modules and the phone will not start. What we need is that the corresponding zip climb to disable Xposed from recovery since the beta 2 version lollipop Disable-xposed-recovery.zip not create the file. Of course I appreciate any help.

Desde mi Super Note N7000
[Xposed General] franzpimp87:
When I had problems with xposed, I just reboot phone, just after the boot logo appears, I press power button several times until at every power key press the device vibrates slightly. After 3 or 4 vibrations, I only wait for the device to boot normally or sometimes I made it power off and power it on.
[Xposed General] USHERROB:
You can also use your Recovery's file manager. Goto /data/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer and create a new file called "disabled" (without quotes and no extension).

If you cant create a new file, try copying the modules.list file and then paste it somewhere, rename it "disabled" (without quotes) and put back into that folder.

Then your phone will boot up w/ xposed disabled and you can then uncheck the module that isn't compatible, and delete the "disabled" file you created.

(this looks complicated but its actually very simple)

Hope that helps
[Xposed General] Radamantys-N7000:
What is being proposed to modify or create a file, it is impossible to do it from recovery since we have a file manager with which to work, so the idea is to have a flashable zip to disable or delete Xposed modules. From already thank you very much for the input!

Desde mi Super Note N7000
[Xposed General] blairwaldorf1995:
It's actually far from impossible. You can simply boot into TWRP, then 'adb shell' from your computer. From there, simply 'touch /data/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/disabled'. Then you can reboot.
[Xposed General] syndre:
If you get a zip of aroma file manager you can use recovery to flash that, you can use it to manage files on your device. It has a terminal built-in too, and a much nicer keyboard IMO.
[Xposed General] USHERROB:
Yea thats exactly what i used. I probably shouldve mentioned that, i kinda just assumed. Oops! lol. But yes you are correct Download the latest aromafm zip and place in correct directory, then change settings in twrp to use aroma file manager.

EDIT: Latest that worked for me was v2.00 b6

[Xposed General] Radamantys-N7000:

[Xposed General] ubarsaiyan:
Can i just create a file "disabled" and place it somewhere else while my phone is working fine and copy it to the xposed directory when I want to disable xposed? Does this really work?

Edit : Creating this file does not disable xposed.
[Xposed General] USHERROB:
it should work, but you have to set the correct permissions after copying to xposed data directory

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowLea:
5.0 was released for the Netherlands and Luxembourg this week. Italy has had it for weeks. :)

As for why Samsung isn't releasing the updates everywhere at once, that's physically impossible. Even if they hired 5000 people to develop all the thousands of firmwares at once, the OTA servers could never handle that much traffic. You're talking about hundreds of millions more users than Apple has ever had to handle.
