In staying on topic, I had to go to the tmobile store the other day and was beyond unimpressed with the S6.

The part that bothered me the most? Even with their on screen video screensaver type thing, the home screen was burnt into the phone so bad it wasn't funny on all 3 S6 display models. The note 4 display phone was very lightly burned in and I'd imagine on display for a lot longer.

I know OLED is more prone to burn in, but the phones don't sit 24/7 on the homescreen with the video playing. Would love to know what changed screen wise on the S6, but that was some of the worst burn in I've seen on a phone.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] mgbotoe:
I can get 6 hour screen time easy if I turn of gps and sync....7.5+ with some battery moderating app from the playstore.

6 hour screen time is not far fetch at all on the note 4. I mean, you saw the battery size ya?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] mutantblack:
Using same rom as face before I update to lollipop, good day 6 hrs plus SOT, bad day 5 hrs easy. With all the people saying same thing about their Note4 battery life, Humm.... Is that proof? Heh

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] pierrekid:
No not really. Because 5 people out of the thousands on these forums and others that have said 3-4 is a very small sample. Again...proof of time lapse would be the only way. Heck even most of the major review sites say 3-4. Sorry guys but no where near proof. Not even close really.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] bsanto9:
I'm just not seeing where you are getting that the s6 is and inferior product ?? I love both phones but by not means does my s6 feel inferior to my note 4. by any stretch of the imagination. Both great phones.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] icugotit2:
in a few ways not a lot

Yes both are great phones with different target area. Some of what I consider is in my orginal post and some below.

1.Battery life of my n4 is can take me to 48 hours of use. I can also also extend that easily with removable batteries.

2. Durability and ease of use to mantain. My n4 would fair better from a drop test because of not having the full glass treatment, while still having a metal frame. I also don't like my phone being given a finger print magnet.

,

3.although both screens are equally stunning in my own eyes. it's difficult to go back to a smaller screen size. Movies, games and multitasking, reading are all better on a bigger screen.

4. Lack of expandable storage. Why I need it I have a huge music collection and small movie collection. I also have two kids that takes pics and shoot lots of videos off. Some say well you can do cloud storage to backup or stream music from. I sorry but streaming quality will not be same of flax files imo(I'm an audiophile). I also don't feel comfortable uploading my pics to cloud services (they are clean . . . ) Also I travel from time to time. Not everywhere has reliable internet., let alone fios etc. This is more so when you travel overseas . . .

Another argument to cloud streaming, not everyone has an unlimited Internet plan. Also many who do, get throttled. Not everyone has 1k to drop on 128gb edge, where SD cards can purchasedate for cheap.

Those four reasons make it an inferior device to my needs and daily use.

The s6 is super fast but my n4 is no slouch either and still holds its own and bests even some other current flagship imo (m9,g4). I lost my my n4 end of March in the snow. I still went out and purchased another one with the s6 on the way. I'm still glad I did.

They are both great devices with good build quality. The s6 is just inferior overall for my needs Minus the camera with the new lens for low.light shots.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] bsanto9:
I'll give you the lack there of a SD slot. Durability testing the n4 may not have a large back full of glass but its front has a larger glass surface area, more likely imo to crack. And based on alot of durability test videos it's seems as though the s6 and s6 edge handle well against the competition in some cases beating them. Screen size I went from the iPhone 6 plus to the s6, minus resolution, it wasn't as difficult as I thought It may have been. Battery life I just pulled 5 hrs of SOT which with a yes a substantially smaller battery is not bad at all, this was including social media, watching a full Netflix movie and YouTube, I guess to each there own I like both phones, I just dint see that much inferiority, IMO.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] vinnyjr:
I also was going to get the S6 Edge, I just couldn't give up my S-Pen. I could have kept the Note 4 and still get the S6, I have so many devices laying around I said screw it, I'm waiting for the Note 5. I have concluded that the Note 4 is the best device made to date. Then there is the S-Pen, that is the most powerful tool for any Smart Phone made. Nothing comes even close.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Jammol:
Any phone that doesn't have a removable battery and the capability of adding storage is inferior to a device that can. It offers nothing over the N4 and actually has less to offer.

I'm so glad I decided to test it out before I bought it. Saved myself from a world of hurt and having to force myself believe I made a good choice.

Didn't anyone ever tell you guys that you never had to leave the Note 4?? I certainly would not have left it for the S6 or S6 Edge but I can tell you that it's certainly VERY nice and stands up in places where the Note 4 falls down. Pros and Cons to both but I could not part with either! ;)

My T-Mobile MDA US G3 IPL/SPL 2.26 running Faria's PRO ROM kitchen keeps having a problem where my screen turns completely white at random times and does not go away until i slide the keyboard slightly out. This has been happening when i was on Core 2.0 and now Faria's ROM and even when i downgraded to the T-Mobile 2.26 ROM when switching from Core to Faria it happened. Is there any way to fix this, please someone help me I cant stand not being able to use my phone as my screen keeps on turning white unless i have the keyboard slid out slightly. If it is slid out all the way it will keep turning white and if is not slid out at all my screen will keep turning white. It gets really annoying when you are trying to type something and the screen turns white and you have to slide they keyboard back in and out.

Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. First, ports can only be done to specific devices. You can't make a device generic port.

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] grant523:
I just got a new unlocked AT&T M8, switched over from iPhone. I'm going to be using it with T-Mobile, and I'm still struggling to learn how all this stuff works. So the phone is running on Android 4.4.4 currently, and I want to install a custom ROM on it, but I need Android 5.0. Since I have a T-Mobile sim card, I don't have any OTA updates. From what I understand, if I wanted to switch to a T-Mobile ROM, I'd have to pay $25 for Sunshine, which I'd rather not do. Would I also need to do so to get an international ROM? Also, from what I'm reading, my other option is to use the AT&T RUU from HTC's website to update to 5.0, and then install a custom ROM from there. Is this correct, would that remove my unlock, and are there instructions/recommended readings before I try anything? Thanks for any help.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
You probably want the T-Mob radio software, so you can enable the 3G and LTE bands used by T-Mob. Otherwise, you will find that the AT&T radio does not give you 3G and LTE in many locations.

In order to flash another carrier's radio, you need s-off, and there is no way around that. Then you need to change the carrier ID (CID) and model ID (MID) to that of T-Mob.

At that point, you may as well RUU to a stock factory T-Mobile software image (not just the radio) and that would be recommended, is it will get you a complete T-Mobile "baseline" phone as opposed to an AT&T ROM with T-Mob radio, etc.

After running the T-Mob RUU, your phone will be "fully converted" to the T-Mob version in terms of software. Others here have converted the AT&T version for use on T-Mob. So I'll try to find one of those threads instead of trying to explain it all again.

None of these mods will change your SIM unlock. That will remain unlocked.

Here you go: http://xdaforums.com/att-htc-one-m8/help/installing-tmobile-rom-att-branded-phone-t3069388

Another point: You can update to the latest AT&T Lollipop software by RUU. And you can flash custom Lollipop ROMs after that. But neither of these will enable the 3G and LTE bands used by T-Mob. So that is why I suggest "converting" the phone to T-Mob stock software instead.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] grant523:
Thanks for the response! Appreciate it. A few more questions, since I'm not sure I fully grasp the concept of radios.

If I first flash a T-Mobile ROM, and then install a custom ROM, is that any different from updating with a AT&T RUU and then installing a custom ROM? Will I still be missing the bands?

If yes, then should I just stay away from Custom ROMs all together? Is this a problem because I bought an AT&T phone?

Thanks again!
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] ZeRo2o9:
Yes it's different the AT&T ruu won't give you the T-Mobile bands. And you can install custom roms if you want but I would reccomend paying the $25 to s-off and fully converting to t-mobile and either stay on stock or flash a custom t-mobile rom
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
I think your first phrase was intended to read "flash the T-Mob RUU, then install a custom ROM".

The radio is not contained in the ROM, and flashing a ROM doesn't affect the radio in any way.

The radio is contained in what many folks here called the "firmware package" or firmware.zip; and it can be installed by flashing the RUU.

Another thing that will help you understand, is that the phone has something like 36 (or more) partitions. The ROM is just one of those. The radio is a separate partition (as bootloader, recovery, and others have their own separate partitions as well). Flashing one partition, does not effect the others. The RUU is a complete software image that flashes

all

the partitions to factory stock for a certain carrier version.

You can also flash the radio or firmware.zip manually (without flashing the whole RUU). But my personal recommendation would be to baseline to a fully stock T-Mobile software profile, since you are on the T-Mob network, to make sure every partition plays well together (as opposed to mixing T-Mob and AT&T software components).

I wouldn't say that. Custom ROMs have their place. But a custom ROM will not open up the T-Mob bands. As mentioned, you can only do that by flashing the radio, which isn't affected by flashing the ROM.

After baselining to a T-Mob stock config as I've suggested, you can feel free to flash a custom recovery and flash custom ROMs if you like. But if would be for other reasons than the radio bands; such as performance, customization, debloating, etc..

Basically yes. If you want to be sure a phone works fully on a certain network "out of the box", you should buy the phone that is branded for that network. Otherwise, you should always thoroughly research a phone (not branded for your carrier) before trying to use it on your network.

Luckily for you, on this device the radio bands can be changed in software using the mods I've noted above. On past devices, the band support was set in hardware, meaning where was no way to change it in software. In that case, you would really have some buyer's remorse to deal with.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] grant523:
Ah OK thanks for the responses! I think I'm starting to understand. I did research how an At&t m8 would work with T-MOBILE but I didn't realize i would have to go throw this whole software process to make it work! Anyhow I appreciate the help and I'll buy a Sunshine license when I get a chance. Thanks again!

You are quite welcome.

[AT&T LG G3] lwg45714:
Well around 3 weeks ago I dropped my LG G-flex and cracked the screen. After a little research on replacing the screen I decided filing a claim was my best option. The following day I received a refurbished white d-850. I was very excited after reading up on the specs, it seemed like a nice upgrade. Well that was short lived due to the fact that the touchscreen was nonresponsive at certain points on the screen. Plus it had terrible backlight bleed as well as light coming out between the frame and screen. So I decided it was unacceptable being as I paid a 200 deductible and still owe money on the device. Upon contacting asurion they had no problem replacing the device considering I only had it for about a week. Well to my delight I received the device the following day and it was a BRAND NEW device unlike the previous one. So I've only had the device for a day and I'm already in love! I wasn't happy at first about the screen being slightly smaller than my gflex. However the g3s screen looks AMAZING compared to the gflex. What I'm most impressed with is the camera on this thing! All in all I'm very happy with the device and it is DEFIENTLY a major step up from my G Flex!
[AT&T LG G3] hyelton:
Welcome to the G3 :)

The one thing I hated about the G Flex was I had more lag than the G3 and 720p on a 6inch screen was a very bad choice.
[AT&T LG G3] lwg45714:
Thanks for the welcome! Yes the 720p was horrible on the 6inch screen, I didn't realize how horrible the screen looked until receiving the G3. I'm glad another Gflex owner chimed in because I had quite the illusion going on my first day.? Did you also have the illusion that the G3 was bent the OPPOSITE direction of the G Flex?! It literally seemed the center of the phone was wider in the center from using the G Flex for so long! Luckily it went away now and the phone looks normal! Lol
[AT&T LG G3] hyelton:
I didn't own the phone long. Only 30 days. I got one through LG loaner program which lets you test a device for 30 days.

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m.klinge:
So normally I don't have any trouble rooting my phones and getting them to work as I want, but my new S6 Edge (925f) gives me a run for my money :)

I just want root nothing more nothing less - but I don't want it to degrade the phone (by introducing bugs).

I went to use the cf-auto-root method and everything worked well, then I wanted to fix the deep sleep issue root introduced. In the process I installed twrp in order to flash the fix - and finally I applied the fix.

Everything seems to be working, so I booted one last time into recovery to wipe everything - and bam wouldn't boot anymore.

Flashed a stock firmware and did it all over just to end up with thesaurus result.

Now can anyone point me in the right direction when all I want is a rooted stock rom with no "extra bugs" in the process :D

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrcpu:
I have a note 2, that I swear, the Flash is read-only. No odin is capable of writing and actually "sticking". The little bar in the download window on the phone scrolls across, odin says it's successful, resets, and nothing. I've tried openrecovery, cwm, I've flashed stock, I've reflashed kernels, but absolutely nothing seems to allow odin to actually change the bits on the phone. I boot into cwm, switch to download mode, flash twrp, everything scream success, and recovery is still cwm. I flashed stock AT&T releases, it's still cwm.

And the problem is, it appears to be a corrupted cwm, or my partition table is wiped out, or something, because cwm has errors about accessing cache.

Before I toss it in the trash, I want to take one last crack at fixing it. I've watched youtube videos, I've downloaded more large odin files than I can shake a stick at.

Any last suggestions, before one of my favorite phones becomes a piece of electronic trash being ground up for precious metals? All 6 nanograms of 'em?

I'm even willing to try crazy stuff.

I swear it thinks that flash is a nullfs.

If the bar didn't go across the screen on the phone, I'd look harder at my computer, but the little blue bar scrolls across at the same rate, it all looks like it should.
