[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SubArctic:
FINAL UPDATE:

Everything worked out fine. The phone went to 50% charge, I took it off charge, and it booted normally. Now I'm installing the stock firmware, and I guess I can move on from there. I hope this is useful for anyone else. The debrick image that finally worked out for me was I747M_NE6_128

UPDATE:

Ok I think I might have have something working. My battery was dead which is why I wasn't going into download mode. I saw somewhere one of the SD card methods saying that once I put my SD card into my phone after I have placed the image on it, I should connect it with my computer. I did so and tried booting and I felt a vibration (the one you feel when you're booting your device normally). My phone showed the grey battery symbol, then it showed the "Samsung Galaxy S III" text, with the Crynogen ROM guy on the bottom. Finally it is now showing my battery charging (battery icon matches Lollipop firmware I had on). Also I'm not sure if this is normal behavior for a hardbricked phone, if it is then nothing has changed. Though, when I plugged it into my computer, some Samsung ABD thing installed, and now everytime I plug it in, some MTP thing attempts to install but fails (so no QHUB thingy).

Now I want to know (if the device boots up after full charge), how do I proceed from here? I try to put it into download mode, and install a 4.4.2 stock firmware? I want to be able to use my SD card for other purposes.

OLD:

I'm having trouble debricking my SGH-1747M Telus. I have tried all of the debrick images found in this video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8MnikrpUKZw

But nothing works. My phone was debricked after I installed a Lollipop ROM from this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3-sprint/development/rom-unofficial-cm12-lollipop-t2953040

The ROM installed perfectly fine but the camera wasn't working. So I tried the fix from this video and flashed the camera file:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U8obKmPrAh4

It hard bricked my phone, it just wasn't for my device (stupid me). Now I saw the debrick method using an SD card, I bought a 16GB class 10 SD card:

http://www.thesource.ca/estore/prod...ne&category=Memorycard_miniSD&product=8017621

I have tried all the debrick images but none worked. I'm not sure what my bootloader was, but I have tried both 4.3 and 4.4.2. I was expecting one of them to work, or something to work since I didn't do something like flash the wrong bootloader or remove my battery midway through installation, so I'm surprised nothing has worked thus far.

If someone can provide some more debrick images (for SGH-1747M d2att or d2lte) or point me in the right direction, it would be great.

It's just that I didn't do anything crazy like install the wrong bootloader, so I was really hoping it would have been unbricked using the method.

Hello, even Samsung exchanged a new screen for me due to defective screen, within a few days I started seeing small dots in the edges between the glass screen and the silver edge. Is it due to some kind of oxidation or friction when I put the device in a bag? How to prevent such discoloration?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] treetopsranch:
Can you post a screen shot?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] ShadowLea:
Probably the same issues that plagues the bezel on the Note 3, as well as the S6's silver bezel around the camera. The silver colour is painted on, and it wears off fairly quickly, revealing the white plastic beneath.

What I always do is a solution us women have been using to keep our fake-silver rings looking silver for decades: blank nail polish. Simply apply a thin layer of blank nail polish on top of the bezel and it will erode much, much less. It acts as a protective layer.

To fix existing blemishes, you can use silver nail polish and a very, very thin brush.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] petercohen:
Thanks. For the silver nail polish, is there a specific brand/model number or anything like that will do? If I want a pink bezel, I just get a pink nail polish?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] ShadowLea:
Make sure it's a long-lasting one. Personally I always use L'oreal, but if that's not available in the right colour, Max Factor or Rimmel will do as well.

Yep, if you use pink, it'll turn pink. :) It's a coating, so you can use any you want. So if you don't like the silver and would prefer black, you get a black one. (those are available in gloss and matte)

We also do this to paint back covers, suitcases, keys, cables (to colourcode them), blemishes on shoes... I've used nail polish on pretty much everything.. except my nails! :laugh:

The advantage of using Nail polish over dye is that you can simply wipe it off with acetone and a cotton swab if you don't like how it looks. (acetone is nail polish remover. You can usually find it within 3 meters of the nail polish stand in a pharmacy.)

There are a couple that "de-sense" the rom as aroma option.

But no true AOSP yet as I can see.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.Preacher:
I haven't installed a ROM using Aroma before. That is pretty cool. I installed Venom de-sensed. I like it better than stock for sure, but the one thing I'm really looking for is a ROM with a stock Lollipop dialer/phone setup.

Any ideas?

Edit: I see the Redbulled ROM mentions the GPE dialer, but will it work on a Verizon phone?

Cool. I hadn't seen that yet. I'll give it a try. I was able to install the dialer by extracting it from my M7 running GPE, but as soon as I start the call it reverts back to the Sense phone app. I'll see if that works any better.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Narwhal73:
So I unlocked, rooted and installed Euphoria ROM on my Moto G today, and now I'm perplexed to find that when I select the "Reboot" option either in Android or TWRP, I immediately get shoved back into TWRP. Rebooting to Bootloader works as expected, rebooting to Recovery works as expected, but the normal reboot doesn't.

Also, when my phone is offline and I plug it in, it immediately lights up and boots directly into TWRP. I don't know why this is, but I'd like to fix it since it's hit and miss trying to boot into the ROM normally.

Can anyone help me pin point the problem? In all my years with Android I've never seen an issue with boot priority such as this.

Things I have done:

-I tried to decide on a recovery so I flashed PhilZ, CWM, and TWRP in that order from the fastboot commandline

-wiped system, data, cache, dalvik cache, and flashed Euphoria ROM

Thanks!
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acrohan:
One thing I would suggest is to flash the stock recovery and try rebooting, even i had encountered this problem. Later you can flash twrp again and everything will work fine.

[XDA Assist] anader:
Hi, my name is Anthony and I have a T-Mobile S5 running the latest version of android (I think it's 5.0.1 or 5.0). I'm kinda a newb with flashing and rooting. I had my phone rooted using towel root a while ago, but I lost that root in an update and it is no longer supportive of my phone.

I'm looking to install custom roms but before I do so, I would like to make a full backup of my current stock touch wiz so I can revert to it in case I don't like the new rom. I also would like to root my phone. Oh, and before anyone tells me that I need to install Odin, I have a Mac running Yosemite.... A lot of people have told me that I need to install clock work in order for this whole process to work.

Recap:

1. Make backup rom

2. Root phone

3. Teach me how to flash roms using a Mac.

4. Include any other important info and links for downloads.

I mainly want to install CM12, but I still want a backup rom to revert to later

Thanks, and please don't post any hate
[XDA Assist] jd1639:
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. Some pro tips, figure out how to use Odin. You'll need it eventually if you want to root and flash roms. Either in a Windows vm or heimdall. If something goes wrong you'll need to flash the stock firmware.

Hi guys, i just bought the S5 Sport on Ebay and intend to unlock it to use with the GSM network in NZ. Unfortunately, this device comes with android 5.0 lollipop that can't use the App SSU to unlock

I have tried to download the older android version on Sammobile but i got the error message Fused 2 > Bin 1 when i tried to downgrade from 5.0 to 4.x. Just google the this issue and find out the reason that the bootloader is locked at 5.0 version, Samsung just only allow me to go to higher firmware, not the old ones

I also have tried to root and install Custom recovery (successful) and install the custom 4.x rom. Tried exactly what the other post said ( download the one for G900p and reflash the Kernel of G860P) but the phone keep restarting (i've tried many roms on XDA, on one works)

So anyone help me to how to downgrade the android of this S5 Sport Or another method to unlock Sprint S5 sport on 5.0 please.

In the Settings you need to enable installing apps from "unknown sources" if you are sideloading, as opposed to installing from the Market.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Bionic22:
Specifically the "Activation Agent" which just adds a dumb notification on the notification bar saying there's no Verizon SIM detected. Not to mention, when you go to the app, it doesn't let you uncheck the "Show Notifications"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] abdel12345:
Use the debloater tool to disable all those apps. I disabled the activation agent so it stops showing that notification.

Also as a temporary solution you can just force close it and it'll go away until the next reboot.

All I have right now is this from someone online who said he had the instructions. If anyone has clear outlined pictures to do this, please post it.

Thank you!

"There are additional screws that need to be taken out. You have to pop off the housing on the top that covers the camera and the antenna port. there will be at least 2 more screws there. Then you will carefully have to pop off the back starting at the bottom by where the stylus is and pull that off. There is probably going to be another screw holding the board in place. It has been a few months since i have done this. Then the board comes out and you have 4 more screws these are phillips heads. That will take the back housing off of the front. Then 4 more screws to take the back plate off of the front housing."

[XV6700, PPC-6700 ROM Development] bullcrap420:
I got my replacement from eBay. goldelec

The LCD had a weird rainbow thing going on in the center of it, that you can see if you look at it at the right angle and the bottom corner looks bright white when the screen is on for an extensive period of time. Again, it works...better than what I had. I did not get great instructions, but what he sold me worked fine.

The toggle i'm talking about is the button in between the call and hangup buttons on the front face of the phone. That toggle switch just does not seem connected or stiff like it used to be. I can't "click" up/down/left/right or select anything. I am convinced the rubber piece goes behind it somewhere somehow. I just have to take it apart and figure out the orientation of it.

Makes no sense. It says must wipe user data....why on earth would you need to wipe / factory reset just to UPGRADE to COD6?

Guide needs proper writing...
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] AlkaliV2:
Because doing an Odin upgrade or downgrade on your device does not wipe the data partition which is necessary when changing a letter versions of Android. For example, let's say you are going from Kit-Kat to Lollipop or perhaps Lollipop to Kit-Kat in a way similar to that presented in this "How to".

However, I get that new members need help sometimes so let me help you research your criticism.

Welcome to XDA.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] KingBeef:
Forgive my ignorance, but I am curious. When upgrading to a new letter version via OTA or a program like Kies, there is no factory reset done by default. The fact that a factory reset solved problems for many this go around aside, why is it a must when using Odin? I have upgraded ma few devices over the years to new letter versions without resetting so I am just trying to get a better understanding.
