[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nosympathy:
Won't hurt anything to pull battery and try again. Just rewipe and try flashing again.

If it fails again. My suggestion would be to restore your nandroid, and verify the MD5 of the file you downloaded.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Enilo:
I was hesitant in pulling the battery to avoid bricking the phone but if that's the only way. I was told the download might have been bad but I don't see how considering it downloaded fine and the size fits. I might try a different rom and see if that changes anything.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BACARDILIMON:
I would odin back to stock and start over. Make sure reactivation lock is not checked off .

BAD ASS NOTE 4
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Enilo:
Alright, I'll probably try that once my phone finishes restoring my backup. Just to be sure since I seemed to have gotten some mixed info, does the latest LiquidSmooth ROM support Lollipop 5.0.1 or is the latest download on the forums still for KitKat? I was thinking I might have to switch to the CMremix ROM instead.

Thanks for all the help so far by the way.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BACARDILIMON:
I be honest I don't know anyone who flashed that rom . I think it is still in beta side of things. Best bet would be to ask in the thread about flashing issues.

Ok so that is running on 4.4.4. If u already updated ur baseband and firmware that won't work. Stick with offical stock and check and use it. Make sure ur good then flash but not that rom. U would have to revert. My 2 cents it not worth it going all the back and forth.

BAD ASS NOTE 4
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Enilo:
Thanks, a least now I know what the issue most likely was. Finished the restore and checked my system, gonna rewipe the partitions then try and flash CMremix since its said to be supported.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZoZo-:
So the security system KNOX and the mobile payment system Samsung Pay has started the controversial debate about rooting/flashing your new S6/S6 Edge..

While we still are months (years?) away from a fully working system and large merchants adapting the system, it is still a very valuable and kind of cool feature to have on your phone.

But when you're browsing the forums you see custom ROMs and mods that could further power your S6 to unlock it's full potential and with root you can of course modify your Android experience to just the way you want it.

We have also yet to see a release date for other countries than the US and China. I live in Sweden and doubt I will see Samsung Pay working here since the magnetic terminals rarely can be used because of the chip-security VISA and MasterCard require.

The question still resides.. Is it worth tripping KNOX and losing Samsung Pay, which might never even come to your country (or at least not in 1-2 years), for unlocking Androids full power and the S6 full potential?

To flash or not to flash, that is the question...
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flu13:
I'd love to root, but it's not available for my version yet. I'm also not clear on what Samsung Pay does for me that's better than Google Wallet.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ¿Will-it-Blend?:
Samsung Pay uses MST technology in addition to NFC, meaning that you can pay with your phone virtually anywhere credit cards are accepted.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewNY:
MST technology
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flu13:
Whaaaat?? How does that work? How will it work with an old-fashioned magnetic card swipe reader? Crazy.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZoZo-:
It emulates an magnetic field that works exactly as you should swipe your card. :)
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flu13:
That makes my head spin.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sheldor1967:
I rooted. I have no desire to pay with my phone.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] highaltitude:
So do we know 100% that root definitely kills the option for Samsung Pay? Or that with Knox tripped it will negate Samsung Pay? I've read about here and there but I guess I haven't quite seen if someone actually tried to use the pay after root and it didn't work?
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZoZo-:
According to SamMobile tripping KNOX will disable Samsung Pay.

We've yet to get any official statement though, right?
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] highaltitude:
I am looking at buying one to replace my wife's S4 and hadn't really read up on it a whole little yet. Thanks for the info I had not looked there. Next time keep the attitude to yourself.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZoZo-:
I'm sorry, you must've missunderstood me.. I didn't mean to have any attitude. I was mainly trying to get confirmation if there were any official statement from Samsung since I don't know if there is any..
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] highaltitude:
No problem, guess I took it the wrong way too. It was just how it was written the "though?"

Anyhow, I have rooted (between my wife and I) our last 8+ phones so naturally I am looking to root the S6 when we get one, just wanted to find out for sure if it made things worse. I suppose if I am not going to use Sam Pay then it wouldn't matter. I just would rather not lose options or features. I did see a thread of a DEV that claims to have achieved root without tripping KNOX. Not sure if it will make it's way to us or not.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZoZo-:
Same here! Always been rooting the phones, when you have the option of complete flexibility with the OS, why not? :)

Yea, better to have the possibility of the feature, even if one will use it or not, than to lock yourself out directly, hopefully that Dev has found a way and if so it won't be long time before it gets to us.

Also, since installing Nova Launcher Prime I haven't really had the need to root it since the phone is blazing fast and you can you hide away the apps you don't use/want to see in the drawer.
[Xperia Z1 General] swagie:
Ok so after upgrading to lollipop via prfcreator my rear camera stops working.

My rom is lollipop nld with supersu 2.49 bèta and latest Dual recovery.

My camera does not focus and when taking a picture it freezes.

I dont know if anybody else had this problem but Just to Let you know.

I am on locked bootloader by the way.
[Xperia Z1 General] darthxa:
Flash 4K & Tmeshift that fix your problem
[Xperia Z1 General] swagie:
Thanks but no luck.

Figured out another way:

1: flash unmodified ftf (no root or recovery)

2: boot and basic setup. (Camera working)

3: unlock with flastool.

4: flash boot2.img to get recovery.

5: flash pre rooted flashable.zip (with prfcreator)

6: restore TA backup. (lock bootloader)

Now camera working with root and recovery.

I'm running cm11 and for a while I have had the problem that while in sleep mode my device will not wake from it so I have to restart my devive which hasn't been a problem until last night when my tablet rebooted and got to the logo the arrow will stop circling and then it will reboot. I can get into recovery but nothing I have tried has worked and I have looked around and I have seem some solutions that might work but for one reason or another it won't work or I can't do it so I'm starting this thread to see if I could get some solution that have step by step instructions.

I found this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2683787 but I can't figure out how to unmount data(if my data is even mounted) and I can get access to from my computer.

[Asus Transformer TF700] thelous:
Your cm rom mighy not be stable, ask from rom's original thread about issue, they should abswer pretty fast
[Asus Transformer TF700] Oakridgech:
Original thread? link please.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Either you are not on the right bootloader (unlikely) or your /data partition has some corrupt data on it.

Easy fix is to wipe /data from your recovery and reboot.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Oakridgech:
Thanks for the reply. I just went into my recovery(twrp v2.8.6.1@AREA51) and wiped data from within the advanced wipe menu(It said it was successful but it did also have some E:unable to stat stuff as well) and it is still freezing at logo and restarting.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
That "unable to..." stuff is important. Post it please.

But probably you'll have to format data in recovery. Which can take 60 minutes or more. Let it finish!

I can try to format if that is the only option.
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Since you already wiped, formatting is the safest fix now. Otherwise you could have tried a filesystem repair from TWRP (also somewhere in the advanced wipe menu).

btw, "Please help" is a VERY bad thread subject.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Oakridgech:
Ok I will format then thanks.

What would have been a better thread subject? I'm new to this/don't do it very much.

Edit: I have formatted but got 2 more errors(don't remember exactly what they were but both ended with ERROR=255) but my tablet booted up into cyanogenmod just fine just have to set everything up again. I should be ok right?
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
A summary of your problem in 40 to 80 letters. You should also put more effort in punctuation and shorter sentences - your OP is almost unreadable.

I believe I know these errors, they are caused by a minor bug in TWRP and harmless. Your tablet should work now.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Oakridgech:
Thanks for the help with my tablet.

Graphic view is also available to visualize evolution of sounds around the time when you measure it. Application informs you about current noises to better understand what represents sounds you measure.

SPL (Sound Pressure Level) Sound Meter offers you a screen to calibrate the level of noises of your microphone because it depends also of your hardware specifications.

Some screenshots :

* Main screen

[Android Apps and Games] DocteurN:
Great app Sylvain ! Bravo ;) (my fisrt name is also Sylvain)

Maybe you could add :

- auto switch to graph view by rotation from portrait to landscape and/or a button on the main page to go directly to graph view (and vice-versa)

- buttons for settings/calibrating...

- Show MIN/MAX and average dB

- a pause/start button

Keep on your good work ! :D

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] wstcoaster07:
I have seen software around the forum to unlock the phone but got confused when it mentioned that it used certain radios. can i use any of these if i am on radio 1.41? thanks.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mrvanx:
Firstly what device do you have, secondly have you read the unlocking thread?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] wstcoaster07:
cingular 8525. have been in the unlock forum but getting confused with the radio issue since I am already running black 3.0 and radio 1.41. Basically just nervous since it seems that i am more likely to brick my phone with this than i was when upgrading from stock to black.

*my other issue is i am running vista (which worked fine when flashing to black) but the instructions for SIM & CID Unlocker v3a it notes to use the SD card way if you are not on XP, which i am not familiar with
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mrvanx:
I would HIGHLY recommend:

Get access to and XP (SP2) machine with all the .net frameworks installed.

Install Activesync and hook up your 8525.

Run the unlocker, it should install fine.

VISTA causes TOO MANY problems and i wouldnt trust it with the unlocker.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toledodj:
Are there any other mod packs, similar to MCR, that enables custom ROM customizations to the stock ROM?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Mods or apps that make changes to system settings/files always require root. Try for instance custom launchers to add some features if you don`t want to root.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toledodj:
I am rooted
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
You haven`t mentioned that;) But MCR should work if its compatible with your build. I advice to make a TWRP nandroid backup before you go flashing just in case.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toledodj:
Lol I already have MCR installed. I'm looking for more customization options
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Could you give some more info next time you ask for help? Like what rom you`re running, rooted or not, mods installed, custom/stock kernel etc etc :silly:
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toledodj:
Sorry, I assumed the fact that I was even mentioning customizations would indicate that I was rooted. But yeah, I'm running rooted stock, stock kernel, and using the MCR mod pack. I'm wondering if there are other mod packs similar to MCR?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
There are no other mod packs that I am aware of, though there is always Xposed, but it is in Alpha stage so if you're not a confident modder, probably stay away.

Why not use a custom ROM though?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toledodj:
Stock is better and more stable. Custom roms are fine, but a hassle to install and the easiest way to end up with a bricked phone. I have installed a custom ROM before, stock is a better experience.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Sorry, before I answer, my question was to find out your reasons and see if there was anything I could help you overcome. My intention is to help set your mind at ease, but given the reasons you've given, I apologise in advance of my answers seem like I'm just being a git.

I think that would be a sweeping generalisation and mostly the opposite of my experience. There is a nack to choosing roms though.

a hassle how? Download rom and gapps to sdcard, flash via recovery, wipe data, restore user apps. Don't forget you can't get OTA updates with root, mod packs and custom recovery so that's even more of a hassle imho.

I think that is another sweeping generalisation. I haven't ever seen anyone brick their phone with a custom rom.. Assuming you're using the correct definition whereby phone must be sent to the manufacturer for repair... The most I've seen is someone flashing a kernel or bootloader from the wrong device, or disconnecting mid-flash which can all be fine as stock too.. Though there was that time when cyanogen tried to downgrade the bootloader, though we tend to stay away from them anyway.

Maybe your reasons are born of a lack of confidence and that's understandable. The reasons you have however aren't really reasons though.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toledodj:
I would agree that it's mostly lack of confidence. I mean who would be confident in installing a custom ROM when there's always that warning about bricking and damaging the device. Why risk it? In my experience, it's not installing the ROM that's a hassle, but switching roms or returning to stock. And also having to factory reset the device constantly is very tedious.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
The warnings are a general disclaimer so there is no come back on the dev. Ever wonder why some packs of nuts say "may contain nuts"? Its the same sort of thing.

There's no more risk flashing custom roms than flashing stock roms or OTA updates. In fact I think there is less risk. And by flashing mod packs, you're already taking the exact same risk as flashing a custom ROM, so I don't understand the logic.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Mostly people with none or very low understanding of rooting, flashing, adb and such are a high risk for bricking their phone.

The big picture is:

- make sure the fastboot drivers are installed correctly

- Enable adb debugging and enable oem unlock, both in developer options

- Unlock the bootloader in fastboot

- Flash TWRP recovery and make a nandroid backup

- Flash a custom rom and Google apps

- Optional flash a custom kernel

- Flash superSU.zip

- Reboot and thats it ;)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toledodj:
True. Don't get me wrong. I have no problem with installing roms and, admittedly, I enjoy the rush while going through the process. Okay, say I did want to install a custom ROM, what's the best one for N6?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
He he bit of a loaded question. My favourite ROM is in alpha so I can't recommend that but a couple with good functionality and stability

Chroma

Terminus

I really hope i havent bullied you into flashing a ROM :(
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toledodj:
No not at all. A while ago, I always installed custom roms, but I wanted to see how much can be customized with the stock ROM. Now I'm pretty sure I've done all I can w/ stock. I've heard Euphoria is pretty good also. Is that true?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK0087:
Best way to find out? Try it for yourself. Also, returning to stock on a Nexus is the easiest thing, just a basic understanding of fastboot. There's a guide for that, in the general forum. Look in the sticky roll up thread.

That's the beauty of a Nexus, the simplicity of modification. The amount of development.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toledodj:
Ikr. That's why I chose N6. Thanks for the input.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
I cant comment on that because I haven't tried it or seen it recommended anywhere. That's not to say it's not good, I'm sure it is.

Best way to find a ROM in my opinion, look at the feature set and find one you like, then read a bit of the early pages of a thread them a few at the end to get a feel about what the users think.

Hopefully soon, Xposed will become stable and a whole world will open up to 5.1 users.

[Sprint LG G2] RacerBoy:
Coming from ZVE rooted with a signed TWRP can I just restore this and my EFS? Will I then have a ZVG bootloader and modem? That would sure make this any easy update- THANKS!!

Sorry for not having a handle on this, it's been so hard keep straight which combination of modems, bootloaders, recoveries and ROM's work together.
[Sprint LG G2] secret.animal:
Zvg modem is backed up through twrp. But your aboot(boot loader) is not copied in twrp. Though zve with twrp, means that you are jelly bean boot loader. Not a match.
[Sprint LG G2] InFiD3ViL:
But if he backed up the LP bootloader via TWRP, would it work then?
[Sprint LG G2] secret.animal:
Yes, then he must likely should be able to.
[Sprint LG G2] InFiD3ViL:
Well I cannot get this to even show up in Recovery in TWRP. put in the TWRP>Backups folder, tried the TWRP root folder, nothing works. Only thing I can thing of is he is using a different version of TWRP than me (2.8.6.1)

This really sucks as I am having the notorious issue where my phone is detectable everywhere except for in DOWNLOAD mode. Have tried multiple cables, original LG cable, 2 different PCs (Win7), reinstalling USB drivers, LG/Android...etc. So weird as if the phone is in normal mode, I can see it in windows, but as soon as I go to download mode, it is not discoverable. So this is the only method I can think of that will work. I was going to initially .TOT to ZVE and then OTA or one of the other methods for ZVG. So frustrated.
[Sprint LG G2] secret.animal:
So when you go to download mode, it stays at the smaller graphic of a download status or the big one that will say you're rooted.

I think we need to find a way to fix your download mode to work.

When you say it doesn't find your phone. You have the big graphic of the download bar and your windows device manager doesn't show anything under com settings?
