Well the BTU model has always meant internationally unlocked in terms of Samsung devices, so hopefully this will work. I'm trying to flash it on my T-Mobile device and then rooting it. Does anybody have any idea how to change the model number of the phone to BTU as well so I can get OTA updates?

Received an ota this morning guys, and it was the new build I posted above this post.
[Galaxy S6 General] smoothunit:
Just did this to my Vodafone AU S6 and it worked a treat. Also got an OTA update after a couple of reboots. Knox is still intact. Should work for other Aussie telco phones. Fixed my random freeze's and reboots that where happening flat out at one stage.

*Update- still getting random lockups, even after setting up as a new phone (using no backup). Flash went fine though...

Debrand an American S6 Edge (Verizon) for use in Germany

Hi!

You write in your video tutorial that you don’t suggest it for American smartphones. I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge from America (Verizon branded, firmware: G925VVRU4BOG9) and want to use it in Germany. So far, I have some annoying limitations (I can’t send text messages and I can’t roam). Do you – or anyone else reading this – have a hint or even a little tutorial for me? I’m so annoyed as neither Samsung nor Verizon or my German SIM card provider FONIC offers me support. The phone was a present from an American friend. So I’m not the original customer. I guess that’s one reason they don’t help. Whatever: I’ll appreciate your help! Thanks…
[Galaxy S6 General] godutch:
Just try the tutorial, you don't have a working phone right now, the worst that could happen is a hard brick
[Galaxy S6 General] xkenikax:
And a hard brick is exactly what I don’t want to risk…
[Galaxy S6 General] MindTrix:
this I assume only works on the International 920F version of these phone, you can flash most any region on these (hence international is your first clue), this does not however work on the (American Carrier) branded phones like Sprint, ATT, Verizon, US Cellular ect ect , these are I am told firmware specific, I tried flashing T-Mobile firmware on a sprint phone and brick city, I mean even sprint could not get it back up flashing sprint firmware with their jig... so beware. U.S. Based Carriers got you under their thumb.

Hi just bought s6 edge on vodafone uk, firmware ver.5.1.1 G925FXXU3QOKN is there any chance to get it debranded.I was think to flash BTU one G925FXXU3COI9.is that safe and csc will be changed to BTU.I see lot debrand was done with firmware change from 5.0.2 to 5.1.1. is that thesame story 5.1-5.1

Can you tell me if your KNOX is still 0x0, or is it triped.? I want to debrand my international G920F from T-Mobile, but i need my warranty.
[Galaxy S6 General] jaseukuk:
No I've flashed the latest BTU (mine is a UK EE - EVR) and flashed all fine, no Knox trip.
[Galaxy S6 General] jazk:
Do you know that the EE firmware for the S6 has the computrace rootkit built in? You can research about it more online. It's a pain in the ass to remove, package disabler pro is ineffective, and on top of that it sends a few encrypted text messages everyday to t-mobile most likely info about the device. Now that I'm on another network after unlocking my s6, it's costing me like crazy. I've read that flashing another firmware through odin removes it completely so I'm going to try it as soon as Marshmallow comes out. Could you please check for me if you still have an app called sec.abt showing under applications in settings? It is impossible to disable it/uninstall it. Thanks.
[Galaxy S6 General] jaseukuk:
Yeah I had checked while I was on EE firmware but didn't have it, just checked again and no, can't see sec.abt.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Iryon:
Hi all,

I'm using my HTC One M7 stock headphones and I'm trying calls and voip. I found that Voip calls sounds clearer and louder, but more unstable, than normal calls and I'm experiencing that the microphone is too much sensitive. It captures surrounding noises, even people talking nearby, and it seems that the rear noise canceling microphone doesn't work so good as it should be.

Can i have some advice? Is there a way to calibrate its sensibility?

Here's my stock headphones

Hello.

Sorry my bad english.

The change over lollipop I have a problem with installing apps from outside the store play. Namely, after ripping the phone and try to install, I get the standard Cancel and install. But the best part is that the cancel button works and the other does not. I thought that something will root, but a similar problem to do with the acceptance of the application permissions in a super user (doesn't work accept).

It is true that I did not do a full wipe only davlink / cache but someone wrote that during the change of KK everything worked without a wipe.

If someone had a similar problem, I would be grateful for your feedback.

My friend's jamin when he tried upgrading with smart1 wm6

after the flashing process finished it gives the 3 colors of boot loader

the screen flickers continously with the 3 colors

no way to hard reset the device

and activesync doesn't feel it

I searched all the forum for a problem like this but I didn't find any

any suggestion please, or any help?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] NetrunnerAT:
Flash NVID Rom and try Smart again. Read WM6 upgrade Manuel and readme for the ROM.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] hasanemara:
Please how can i flash with the activesync doesn't notice my device and where's NVID Rom

Ok. I'll search for it but please help how can I flash it to the device which doesn't recognized or felt by PC
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] divxmaniak:
If your device is in bootloader mode, activesync cannot recognize it but this is normal. Jamin is recognize only as a usb device and you can downgrade it to NVID rom easly.

Then you could upgrade your favorite rom, I suggest PDAVIET 4.0.0.1

Bye for now
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] hasanemara:
I think I didn't discuss the problem well

The Problem is when I start to flashing a rom a message tells that check if the usb is connected and if the device is connected .

This is happen with the device is connected to the cable and the tricolor screen is flicking . and the device doesn't open doesn't flashing.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] triplejay:

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] owleng:
If the problem still there, Try to release the battery for 1-3 hours and put it again to the device, go to the boot loader and pray. Hopefully it could work. Actually, this way worked on my Himalaya and Prophet. :D
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ekto:
Just run the "Step 1" component of the PDAViet ROM (http://rapidshare.com/files/32728615/Prophet_PDAViet_Step1.zip), which is just a plain AKU 2.20 NVID. This will find your device even if its in bootloader mode (it doesnt depend on activesync). Just flash it with that sucker and you should have a working phone on WM5, then you can safely upgrade it to WM6 (or leave it if you like).

i have a slight variation problem like this...

1. i was upgrading my O2 Neo to the latest WM05 & the phone went to bootloader mode & the upgrade started searching for the phone as normal..then some error & it stopped upgrading while the phone was in bootloader mode..

2. at that time,i got an urgent call & had to leave the phone in bootloader mode...

3. when i came back..the phone was dead & now it wont startup at all.. not even in the bootloader mode.

4. Maybe the batteries dead...so i charged it (Over night)..nothing happened in the morning..

5. kept the battery removed for about 5-6hours & still nothing happens..it simply does not startup.

6.I've tried holding the camera button & resetting, but it wont go into bootloader mode.

7. i;ve tried holding the connections button + camera button _ reset but it wont hard reset...

can anyone help me here...

what can i do???
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ekto:
Error 260... If i remember correctly that's "cant find device" or something.

Few things to check:

Is the PC you are upgrading on running windows vista?

If so, use a different PC running windows XP.

Have you tried a different USB cable?

If not, do so, this tends to be the cause of problems like this.

Have you checked device manager?

Go to control panel, Administrative tools, computer management, device manager and see if you can find your device. If it has a yellow ! icon on it or is listed as "Unknown device" or anything like that then you may need to reinstall the drivers (int hsi case the easiest way to do that is to reinstall activesync). If everyhting is working properly it should show up as "HTC USB Sync", "PocketPC USB Sync" or something like that under the heading "Mobile Devices".

Have you just plain tried another computer, regardless of the OS?

I found that I could never get my phone to flash on my laptop, but it worked without a problem on my desktop. This is not to say laptop's cant do it, it simply means some computers just have problems like (in my case i believe) no USB 2.0, or too low-powered USB ports.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] hasanemara:
No I didn't change any and I can connect my o2 xda mini to the same cable

I want to ask few technical question

HOW CAN A SOFTWARE DAMAGE THE DEVICE?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] piffdaddy420:
So a friend of mine found a S5 laying in the grass, the phone was in spanish and we were unable to find the owner. So he offered to sell it to me for a reallly cheap price.

Now i have questions abou this, If I reset the phone to factory I can just put the sim card in and it should be good togo, however I am assuming since they lost the phone and most likely its on a payment plan that tmobile will block the imei.

Now my questions are, Can i take an IMEI from a Galaxy S2 (no longer in use) and use the software to put that imei on this so tmobile wont block the phone? That would be ideal

If that wont work, would i be able to use the IMEI from my current galaxy S5 (that I currently use). Since it is the same phone? (well not exactly the same, mine is black the one that we found was white).

Would that screw up my current Galaxy S5 if i put the same imei on the new phone? And both being used under the same family plan?

If I use the phone as it is with the same IMEI that it has, and they wind up blocking it, would i still be able to change the IMEI after it is blocked? (I rather just change it right away to avoid it being blocked in the first place.)

So what do u guys think? Could I use the IMEI from a S2, if not could i use the IMEI from an S5 that i currently use? (IDK if they could tell if 2 IMEI is on the same network at the same time and it will block both which would really suck because I am still paying my S5 off.

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] piffdaddy420:
I was further researching and i am hearing that changing the imei is illegal, and if this is the case i do not want to do it. i am not trying to break the law for a phone lmao. it is not worth it.

i looked up the number and it is infact blocked, so i guess he has nothing but a useless paperweight. I wish we were able to find the damn owner, at the very least could score some karma points.
