I'm Loving It....

Hey whats up all,

So I have my galaxy S6 from MetroPCS (SM-G920T1) and have been waiting for the latest update, Samsung Pay, the video calling & other little fixes. I call Samsung and ask them, When will MetroPCS update my phone so I can use Samsung Pay? The rep told me that it was all on the carries. I called Metro and told the lady the model of my phone and that I was trying to get some info as to when I would be able to use Samsung Pay that is out on my phone with different carrirs? She said, Samsung Pay?

I dont know what that is, is it a 3rd partty app?

I said no, its an app feature built into the latest firm, and I'm looking to find out when you Metro will be releasing the update for my phone?

She says hold one 1 sec, ok I see something on google that Tmobile is getting it......

I said YES, Tmobile already has it. When will Metro customers with Galaxy S6's get that update? Shes says..............Im not sure....... as I was a bit ireatated the last thing I said was, ok so you have know idea about this update? She said No, Im sorry. I said CLICK.

I came to the forums getting info on metro's S6 and Tmo's S6.

Read a few other sites and decided to flash the Tmobile firmware (G920TUVU3DOI1)

I'll make this quick and simple. Best move I have every made!

I followed the instructions, not one problem! Everything works %!

Got my samsung pay set up! Its awesome. Metro has no clue about anything with phone software. Now my phone boots up to a T mobile boot logo, and phone model number is now SM-G920T. Loving it. Feels a bit snapper too.

Everything I have tried has worked. Tethering also works.

Just thought I would share because it seems not to many topics on the Metro s6 variant of the phone and maybe more people like me looking for answers to when our updates will come. Now I'll know ;)
[Galaxy S6 General] StraightUpFake:
So what should I do? Which variant should I get if I'm going to use it on metropcs? I want it to act like a normal metropcs phone which all the bands. Please help. T-Mobile,metropcs, or international s6?

metro pc to the mobile

Hi, i got my metro pc phone, and Samsung Galaxy 6. I rooted , but due that I want to actualize the software i tried to unrooted it, I couldn't find the stock firmware for sm-g920t1 , which was the one of my phone, so I installed the sm-g920t, what happened is that it change everything from Metro pc to T-mobile, but the main problem is that it locked my sim, I don't live in the u.s., and I already got it unlocked for my country , if I tried to unlock it back again there is gonna be any problem ?? and can I do something to unlocked with the old code ?
[Galaxy S6 General] marsrolled:
Hey there! I'm afraid I can't flash any rom that's compatible with our model, i dont wanna risk this goddamn expensive phone lol. Did you try to flash a custom rom? Any links for the methods on how you flashed the T-mobile firmware? If possible, I'd love to have links for everything! Thank you so much! :D
[Galaxy S6 General] britt21:
So having the metro Samsung S 6 I should be able to install any T-Mobile custom ROMs and have no problems with installing or do I need to install the T-Mobile firmware first before installing T-Mobile custom ROMs .What about obtaining root with a Custom recovery ? Do I as well root and achieve recovery as a T-Mobile S6 or do I root and achieve a custom recovery as a metro user of the S 6 ?
[Galaxy S6 General] Gthomas1216:
Anyone know why flashing metropcs firmware on locked t mobile s6 always ends in fail?
[Galaxy S6 General] rdd0512:
i have metro pcs service and we have a verizon g925v that we brought over.. her service is fine but keeps getting hapsa plus network or whatever that is... also still has the vzw bloat and i was wondering if i flashed the tmobile autoroot on it with a stock rooted firmware would it work still on the mpcs network
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duraaraa:
Quick question...

I haven't used a Note 4 on lollipop, but the phones which have the on-screen navigation bar at the bottom have a shortcut to change keyboards when entering text, which I use a LOT.

I'm wondering if there's any new way to change keyboards on Lollipop on the Note 4, or if it's the same old notification center method.

Thanks!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nsw448:
Looks like the rollout today came in 2 updates. I downloaded the first and installed with no problem but the 2nd which actually puts in lolipop can't install. It says error 402, google/the Verizon forums doesn't have any info on it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gsmitchell:
I have the same issue. I have tried Wifi and the Verizon Software Assistant download, and neither works. I am on the hunt for any suggestions as to how to get past this. Since I have just Factory Reset my phone, I will try pretty much anything.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] do_9999:
I had 402 error. I downloaded I545VRUFNK1_I545VZWFNK1_I545VRUFNK1_HOME.tar from here:

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4-verizon/general/how-to-root-i545vrufnk1-4-4-2-12-1-2014-t2959613

Extract the .tar file

Install with Odin v3.09+ (put the .tar file in AP slot) and put phone in download mode

It will keep all data.

After reboot install both updates again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] meazz1:
were you able to root after the updates?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] do_9999:
Negative. But I knew that before. :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skrazz:
If you're having trouble with the Odin portion of this, check to see if you're using USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 port. My issues seemed to be directly related to using 3.0. No idea why, or whether or not this is a known thing but I'm Odin-ing successfully right now. I'm leaving the "struggle" report in case it might help somebody who has gone through the same process unsuccessfully. Cheers

Followed the Odin instructions. Get a Fail. Using original cable. Here's the log:

I made it to NK4 on the OTAs so maybe flashing NK1 won't work? Gonna try the NG6 and NK1 FULL WIPE Odin file. (found here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934540736)

The good news is that I can still get into download mode after a battery pull so I'm just going to try and find another Odin file.

Tried using a Pit file given there's no partition. Didn't work. Looks like I've got a morning of thread crawling to look forward to.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Agrajag27:
As crazy as this might sound, I found the answer for me on Verizon's actual forums from a Verizon customer service rep! That NEVER happens. I almost entirely dismissed it. He told someone asking about this problem, "If that doesn't work, the manufacturer has another way to install the update." I thought that sounding interesting. The link took me to Samsung Kies (an app for the PC) and there you have a choice to install either Kies or Kies3. For some reason it suggests we need Kies, but Kies3 is actually what we need as our S4's have been updated beyond when this site was created.

After installing that, the app TRIES to suggest that we're better off with Smart-something or other, but that's just for transferring contacts and such between two phones. Ignore that and just connect your phone via cable to the PC and Kies will see it and tell you there's an update. It then installed the update without a hitch!

What's amazing is that I also own a Samsung Galaxy Note Pro (the 12.2 inch tablet) that had some issues. However, it would never say there was any sort of update and I could never find one mentioned online. Kies said there was one and installed it. Now the tablet's snappier and better than ever. What a surprise find....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gsmitchell:
Agrajag27 - OMG, thank you very much! That worked, simple update, and I am on lollipop! Great find!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Dillsnik:
I think my phone volume buttons are stuck in, thereby causing to make my phone boot right into (what i believe is) the download screen. I will get a photo of it here in a minute, but the two buttons i believe used to be much more parallel to each other, now they are tapered in a lot in the middle, and i can't get any tactile response in or out when i press on either of them, so i am assuming they are stuck "in."

I figure i will have to take the back cover off to get anywhere since there's nothing to grab onto , but if anyone has any advice to point me to, would be much appreciated.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theblueflash:
Ok so I've been rolling my N4 for just over 2 years now and although I love it I can't help feeling I'm getting left behind. I'll just say that its been the best phone I've ever owned. Everything works out of the box. Google maps and nav for example. Simple, free and every other phone I've launched in anger at the necessary to me but total garbage navigation apps they provided. Nothing the N4 does I dislike.

I thought I liked the 'development' side. I played a lot with my HTC hd2 and ran that on android until it died but since moving to the nexus I'm a vanilla convert. My life is too busy to go rooting. Some may say I'm a iPhone wannabe owner but thats another blood boiling story so we'll skip that. I just love the updates, the simplicity the support and how much nicer android is over the competition.

So I ask. If I want or need a new phone, where do i go?

As I said I love the google updates/support

Size is important. The N4 to me is almost the perfect size. I'm not a phablet fan at all. The N6 launch was hugely disappointing for that reason.

Not sure how I'd cope with bloatware and a different interface like touchwiz coming from a vanilla android handset.

I suppose the reasons for a possible upgrade is LTE. Its getting more widespread in the UK.

The N4 has started to show some gremlins. Nothing bad but makes me question how long the handset will last.

Camera is utter ****. I'm not too bothered by breathtaking quality. Its still only a phone and if I want a proper pic I'll use my SLR, but convinience rules and the n4 camera is slow, unreliable and makes me look a fool who misses that important moment.

& I suppose storage. I like some music. Have a lot of pictures. & apps take up a lot of space. I don't see myself needing expandable storage but 16gb absolute minimum is a must.

So where do I go from here. New nexus? When will that be along?

Nexus 5? Or is that too old as well?

Or are there any other good android experiences from other manufacturers?

Interested to see what others have upgraded to and how they found moving on.

Cheers

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviemch:
I still love my N4 but it's definitely time for an upgrade. I'm holding out for the nexus 5 2015 (assuming the rumors are correct obviously). I've been rooting and flashing roms on the N4 since I got it, at the moment I'm running the Chroma ROM with hellscore kernel and it's probably running better than when I first purchased it. Because of this I can easily wait for the next nexus release, there is no other device that would suit my needs to be honest.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Planterz:
Well, the Sony Xperia Z3 Compact has official Cyanogenmod 12.1, although it's still in "testing". Or you could leave it stock, but it wouldn't be vanilla Android. Sony doesn't go too crazy with their UIs though, and you can always use Nova or whatever launcher to give it the AOSP feel. The Z3C is a significantly smaller phone than the Nexus 4, but only sacrifices .1" in screen size. Plus you'll get like double the battery life or more. And front-facing speakers, 128gb expandable storage, waterproofness, etc.

Or you could wait for the Saygus V2. It's not out yet, but it's basically an Android enthusiast's wetdream. Think of every cool feature on all the different flagship phones, and cram them all into a single device, and you get the V2. 5" 1080p screen, front-facing speakers, IR blaster, wireless broadcasting, waterproof, removable battery, fingerprint scanner, 20mp OIS camera, TWO microSD slots, 64gb built-in, 3GB RAM, dual boot capability, rooted (or rootable) out of the box, and damn near every LTE band on the planet.

Another app missing from the Lollipop update is the MHL Launcher. This is the one from 4.4.4 and I've changed the wallpaper to make it look newer. Download the .zip from attachments or MEGA install it via recovery and wipe caches. The next time you connect the USB MHL adapter it should show, or even if you like to make it a dock launcher as I do, download the app from This thread to make it launch at any time you want.Just download the app, the "fix" is not necessary.

[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Deleted member 4529355:
Well, start by disabling daydream, and download the app from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/xperia-z1/themes-apps/sony-tv-launcher-time-tv-t2871060

Click on the app when you want to set the TV Launcher. Oh, after installing the app dont bother to "open" it immediately by clicking the open button, it will not work because you need to find it in the xperia home with the other apps.

Oh, i thought it was automated.

I dont think ill ever use it, if i have to open it everytime i dock my z2 :P

Enable Multi-User on Lollipop Manually

I am on lollipop 5.02 and you just have to enable Multi-User on Lollipop Manually

I followed this and have multi user, just make sure the codes are in lowercase letters and no spaces

Enabling Multi-User on Lollipop Manually

This guide will enable multiuser support on Android One devices running Lollipop which is hidden by default.

Requirements:

1) Rooted device

2) Any text editor

Steps:

1) Browse to root directory and then to /system/build.prop and open in text editor.

2) Add the following 2 lines of code at the bottom of the file and save.

CODES

fw.show_multiuserui=1

fw.max_users=5

3) Reboot and start adding new users or guest users.

Note:

1) Every time on adding a new user phone will soft boot.

2) A new menu option "Users" will appear in the settings menu as well to configure user accounts etc.

3) You can click the top right corner of your screen, i.e. on the profile photo to quickly toggle users.

good luck

just a quick question.. after enabling and setting up user accounts, do u also lose some quick setting toggles??
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Dajaka2013:
yes at least in my case I missed the screen rotation toggles and Sometimes when I change from administrator to a different user my mobile data connection is lost, i just have to enable again with a toggle, is a small price to pay for having multi-user while we wait for the new update 5.1.1

Could please help or give me a clue? I'm not lazy, I'm just looking for a way to start to try to fix this! Sorry about the english! Thanks in advance!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Dajaka2013:
try to be sure you have all the dots and stripes down each line. in multiuserui also make sure is equal to 5 and users equal to 1
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] *KingKai*:
No theme option in user mode.

While the editing of the build.prop file works great to get multi user available.

I cannot find any way of changing the theme while on another user.

Anyone know a way?

Hi my problem is, I was transferring some videos from my desktop to my S4 micro SD, it suddenly threw an writing error, a few seconds later I unplug my phone from the usb and then plug it again, I was able to copy the files.

Everything was okay until I restarted my phone, the videos were gone. And now doesn´t matter if I write or delete something from the SD card every time that I restart my phone or remove the SD it returns to what it was.

This is my 2nd 64GB micro SD having this problem the first one was with my Samsung Note 10 2014, but was exactly in the same way.

I need to know if it can be fixed and how or do I need a new SD card.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] creepyncrawly:
I can think of a couple of possible causes.

I'm wondering if you might have a fake microSD card. In other words, looks like 64GB, but is really only 32, or maybe 16 GB, or something else. Think where did you buy the card. If you bought on line especially, this could be the case. You can get software that will check it.

If the card really is 64GB, then maybe you can try reformatting it to see if that corrects the problem.
