No I keep a mini usb retractable cable with me for when I need it (doubles as charger in car or home etc). Wonderful as my laptop is it doesn't have bluetooth connectivity and its as easy to wire as it would be to get a bluetooth dongle. I just found the instructions here and it works fine.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mohammadhelmy:
Hello All,

I'm newbie in Unlocking and Rooting the Samsung Galaxy Note Edge. It's my brother's phone and he sent it to me from US to Egypt, I need now to unlock the phone and my question is,

If I Rooted the phone and unlocked the Bootloader and Flashed a Custom ROM, will I be able to use any SIM card? Or I have to Unlock the phone using the Unlock websites for 29$?

Thanks in advance.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slimshotty:
Currently, there isn't a way to root the AT&T version of the Note Edge. The answer to your question is yes, if your are able to unlock the bootloader and flash a custom ROM, you would be able to use your SIM card.

I wouldn't trust any of the websites offering an unlock or root services but that's just my opinion.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] de2000:
I bought an unlock code back in Nov last year, the day that I got the phone. Worked perfectly. Now I can use any GSM SIM cards.

[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] de2000:
And love the replies that are sarcastic in nature.

You've posted more than I have, and all this time you don't know that you can buy unlock codes from various places? It has been discussed to death in the forums.

Anyway, since you want to know, I'll help you out. I bought my code from cellunlocker . net. You need another SIM card that is not your network, plug it in the phone, and the phone will ask you for the unlock code. Put in the unlock code that you bought from the place that I mentioned. Viola! It's permanently unlocked.

Hey guys.

I am searching for a recovery that will work with that ROM http://xdaforums.com/gala...t/rom-t3054101 ?

or this? "cm-10.2.1-galaxysmtd" got it from here https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?de...td&type=stable

any suggestions?

I've searched the forums but all I found were some builds with embedded cm11 kernels.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PePeMoke:
Thank you for your effort!

but I am still confused.

Most of the versions of a custom recovery are not flashable over Odin (I did not mention this)

And the last link fpr the twrp is for the gt-I9001.

can you help me see clearly please?

Here is the deal,

I'll come to Düsseldorf (altstadt), then you buy me a Beer , instead you get the recovery package from me. :D:D;););) ,

Just Kidding , Use this link and download whatever you need.

The included TWRP should be valid for both ROM you've Posted. Else you can use the second recovery included. Bonus : Stock ROM is also included.

Use following Steps:

1) Copy i9000_twrp2.2.1-recovery.zip to your SD card.

2) Use Odin to flash first recovery_i9000.tar

3) Use 3 button combo to boot to recovery, then flash i9000_twrp2.2.1-recovery.zip from there.

If anything goes wrong, then i9000_stock_rom is also included. You can use odin(also included) to flash it.

And, for such problem please post it always either here OR here .

Prost,

As the title say do samsung service centers really bother to check the knox counter or probably do they really know what knox is or what "root" is? has anyone tried taking their phone with tripped knox counter to service center?

there have been many instances atleast in india where most of the service center people fix rooted/bricked phones for free as they dont even get to know phone is rooted or rather dont know what root is this is the true for atleast for lg and sony and samsung for old models!

so anyone here has tried or has any idea on it please post a reply!
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxM4tzexX:
I heard that a tripped Knox counter in Europe doesn't affect the warranty. So European service centers shouldn't care. But not sure though. I didn't have to take my phone to a service center so far.

But for other countries I don't know.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maxishine:
Hi everyone, I've find these links on Italian blog about android, theoretically in Europe root is legit.

The 2nd link it's about European law of private use of things, smartphone it's a "thing" so there are any kind of problem.

If someone have something to report about warranty in Europe please reply.

I doubt it. They can un-trip it any time and it's not like the software can permanently affect the hardware.

I've sent in LG, Sony, Nokia and Motorola phones which were modded or running non carrier roms and they all came back factory formatted.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DevonSloan:
I spoke with a Samsung rep this weekend and asked about the Camera2 API and if he knew when it would be implemented in the S6. Event though I know of the API, he responded by starting to give the usual sales pitch about the S6 camera. I said I understood, and I love the camera, but it would be nice to have shutter control and RAW (even though I really don't have interest in either - I just wanted information). He said "I shouldn't recommend this, but there is a thing called "rooting" your phone..." and I interrupted and said "But that will trip Knox, disable Samsung Pay, and void the warranty, right?" He paused, probably confused that I knew since he's used to the general public (and I know NOTHING compared to most users in these forums), and said "Yes to all three. It does trip Knox and will disable Samsung Pay, and it will also void the hardware warranty. Samsung will still help with software issues, but not with hardware issues."

So, I may have come across the one rep that knows all this, but I'm certain that the service center guys absolutely know about Knox and root. what they will do, I don't know, but remember that they are in business to make a profit, and you rooting your phone gives them a legal "out" to not spend their time and money fixing a phone on which you voided the warranty.

But there are always exceptions and maybe you'll be the guy that slips through. (I'm never the guy that gets the breaks.)

You have got the right recovery there. You must flash 2.7.0.1 first and then update via .zip

This ROM is not AOSP / CM12, Its stock based which means Many Gapps are already included (and updated) By default. You can download the rest of what you want from the Play Store. This also ensures you get the correct DPI / version of the app not to mention the latest version.

Hi,

First of all, thanks for this awesome work.

I like this gpad along with this rom so much that I bought another one for my wife.

However, Ive been having a problem with wifi connection after installing d simple rom on the new gpad, because d both gpad have the same wifi mac address. (00:90:4c:c5:12:38)

I've tried d busybox and most of mac spoofing tricks but NO Success.

Therefore, I need help to find if

1. There is a way to change wifi mac address of this device? (I do not mind reinstall the rom.)

2. Going back to the stock rom, the original Mac will be restored?

3. anybody has d same mac address as 00:90:4c:c5:12:38

Thanks
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Scott:
Strange. Sadly that is part of an issue I cannot fix. I dont have that Mac but I dont doubt that they have changed. The twrp wasnt making proper symlinks to data so I had to cheat the system a little and copy the bin and nvram files to the vendor folder manually.

You can try to restore to stock on either but I dont honestly know what will happen.
