Do I have to load all 4 of those files into odin? The research I did most stated you load "the" md5 and tell it to go.

I just downloaded the package and there are 4 separate files in the zip.

thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] thestrangebrew:
As far as I know you load all of the files.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] freemeech:
Anyone wanna do a step by step on this? I'm not used to loading 4 different files
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] teamfresno:
Step by step for you.

Thanks tons for this.

Does anyone know what (if any) difference there is between this method using the 4 files vs. the other (earlier?) method using single file specified in main S6 Edge General forum: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s6-edge/general/sm-g925f-s6-firmware-thread-t3078841

...and via Rootz guide: http://www.androidrootz.com/2015/05/how-to-unroot-galaxy-s6-and-s6-edge.html

Just... so... paranoid not to mention feeling like total noob :rolleyes:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] sirdizzle415:
I'd use just the AP if you didn't make any CSC modifications. Should you want to update, and the update install fails, then Odin all 4 files. Using all 4 fixed my issue.

Ahh I think I get it now... many thanks!

i have installed twrp revovery to install a lollipop rom but it failed and i wasn't able to boot into my system again so i flashed the souce kernel of the rom for the first time and it worked and when i tried again to install the rom i had the same issue exept that after reflashing that kernel i'm stuck on bootstall help me plz i'm a neewbie btw :'( :crying:
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcoplo:
1)Make sure you bootloader are unlocked.

2) Make sure that the kernel match the software, You have to have an AOSP kernel for a AOSP build, for that you will need to read the instuction that are provided by a particular developer, Usually kernel are provided and it can be recognised by .sin ; .img you may need to flash it first using flashtool then boot to recovery and flash the rest of the system. You may provide better description of the build that your are using , for the better help. I suspect that you have not unlocked the boot-loader
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Dinc User:
I plugged my edge into my laptop for the first time today, right away there was a popup stating that there was a update available for my phone. It updated and now my screen rotation works.

So, i guess it was a software issue and not a hardware issue like everyone assumed?

Just thought i'd share for anyone else with their screen not rotating.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Powell730:
How big was the file and what's your build number now?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Dinc User:
I honestly don't know how large the file was, it just started downloading as soon as i plugged it in. Download only took about a minuet. Build number - LRX22G.G925VVRU1AOC3

BTW, I rooted with Pinngpong before the update and i'm still rooted, so this doesn't remove root.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Powell730:
That was my next question, thanks! I haven't updated my phone (nor received an update) but our build numbers are the same... strange.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] loudaccord:
Weird, that's the build I'm on but never updated. Got my phone the day it came out to.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] jaseman:
The fix is making the phone use the gyroscope for screen rotation. If you have a way to check (very difficult 0n Verizon) I bet your accelerometer is still fried. I read on another forum that those who received the "fix" and were able to check their accelerometer found that it was still locked. Si it could be that the hardware is still at fault. ?????
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] RedTerror98:
Download Sensor Kinetics on the PlayStore and check your values!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] fletch33:
yeah me too but did hear a sammy rep in a best buy say something about an update for some phones and i assume this person had it waiting for them the whole time but just got it because they state they just plugged it in.

i was hoping it was an update too
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] elliwigy:
my phone rotates without the update just fine..

is it only certain people? i have sdm frozen and if all it is is a rotation fix i dont have i will not update
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] morrowa2:
Lot's of speculation in this article, but my money is on the fast charger as the cause.

http://www.computerworld.com/articl...with-some-galaxy-s6-edge-phones.html#comments

Thankfully within the 14 day return period, I am getting a brand new 128gb model. I'll use an old charger until I see evidence that the fast charger is not the cause. Possibly a combination of that with the kernel allowing the phone to get too hot. I'd like to hear from anyone who's screen rotation works if they use the fast charger that came with the phone or not.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] elliwigy:
it is. i work for us cellular and they are going to start rolling out the update tomorrow. it clearly says its only on the edge device and it was caused by the fast charger.. so that article seems accurate
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] fletch33:
i have no idea what the update fixed as my unit came with the OC3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] morrowa2:
It was the commenters that suggested it. The article is mostly fluff lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] elliwigy:
i forget what it said exactly and dont want to send the information outside of work lol. i doubt its burnt up the sensor/chip if a software update fixes the issue.. maybe something in the quick charge software causes it to lock up or malfunction on the device so the update fixed it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] morrowa2:
Funny though that most people report that a factory reset doesn't fix the problem. Guess time will tell with the update.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] elliwigy:
well a factory reset would leave you on the same firmware.. im on oc3 and a factory reset would leave me on oc3 which does not have the fix.. youd hafta update
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] morrowa2:
Got it thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] theresin:
My screen rotation works just fine and I've been using the fast charger since unboxing (the day it came out). 64gb black if that matters to you.

I actually wasn't even aware there was an issue with the device outside of poor memory management. Maybe I'll switch an an older charger for now.

Also, be careful taking updates ... it's possible they've fixed the vulnerability that allowed us to get root way before any of us truly expected it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] elliwigy:
same here on 64gb black no issues lol. apparently its not every phone so if you dont have the bug youre probably fine.. i will check the email tomorrow.. i probably cant post it (dont want to get in trouble) but i can at least check further details on the issue/update.. it is for us cellular but id imagine its similar for all s6 edge ddvices since most variants seem to be getting the updates to fix it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] JediMindTrixx:
If it is an issue with the fast charger, how does an OTA update fix that???

Also, I have a white 128GB edge and have been using the fast charger since day one and no issues with screen rotation.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] elliwigy:
it could be the way the software handles the fast charger.. for example the fast charger is used it could freeze or lock up the auto rotation/sensor.. i am going to look at it here in a moment to see if theres more details
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] morrowa2:
I wonder if leaving the device plugged on the fast charger for too long has anything to do with it. I'm guilty of that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] elliwigy:
it appears reports were accurate.. if your auto rotation is broke it most likely burnt up the sensor and an ota will not fix it so youd need to contact your carrier for a warranty replacement.. here is what im comfortable with posting:

Overview

Samsung now has a fix for the software issue affecting the accelerometer on a small number of Samsung Galaxy S® 6 edge devices. The fix will be deployed to customers via a Samsung Maintenance Release starting May 15. A Buzz Article will be posted on May 14 with details of the Samsung Maintenance Release deployment and how to validate/download the new software.

NOTE: This issue did not affect the Samsung Galaxy S® 6 and will not impact the Samsung Galaxy S 6 edge Gold. Information regarding the launch of the Gold Galaxy S 6 edge devices will be provided in the coming week.

Additional Detail

When a customer uses the Fast Charger that comes with their Samsung Galaxy S 6 edge device, the charger may cause the accelerometer to malfunction, preventing the screen from auto-adjusting between landscape and portrait view. This issue has been resolved and will be deployed to customers via a Samsung Maintenance Release starting May 15.

NOTE: The software fix will prevent the problem from occurring on Galaxy S 6 edge devices; however, if the accelerometer is already affected, it cannot be repaired and the device will need to be exchanged using the DOA or Advance Exchange process (see below for further details).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] JediMindTrixx:
Cool, thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] morrowa2:
Has anybody actually got the update yet?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] elliwigy:
I haven't.. I checked kies and smart switch and on a fully stock fresh system and said no updates
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] morrowa2:
Ok, just checking. Have a brand new replacement on its way, guess I'll just avoid using the fast charger until the update is pushed out. Just hope it doesn't eliminate rooting capability.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Aggies1288:
I have the auto rotation issues on my 64gb white s6 edge also but I can use a app in the play store that shows my x,y, and z sensors and they change when I tilt the phone. Has anybody heard of any updates that that will be coming to our phone in the future that would fix the issue? Im on the AOC3 firmware.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] DustinBooyah:
^ Same here. I used an app called sensor kinetics and everything looked operational, but it still seems to have a mind of its own. Rotating upside down, staying horizontal even while in portrait mode or not rotating at all.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] kevinmr82:
I spoke with Verizon this morning and they stated that there was a tentative software update, I am sending back my third replacement device because of scratched screens, they wanted to send another device and stated that they were sending new devices because they were out of refurbs. I don't want to waste my time sending these things back, so I opted to calk Samsung and arrange for a repair, I asked about a software update being pushed to fix the issue and was told that there is no way possible for an update to "fix" it due to hardware failure. I just wanted to pass the information that I was given along. Sending the phone to Samsung today, Verizon was no help at all.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Aggies1288:
I talked to a Best Buy Samsung experience girl yesterday and she told me she was downloading new binaries that will finish Friday and they were updates to the verizon s6 edge. She also told me that the new update would fix the rotation issue. Lets just hope that all that is true come Friday. :)

BTW my sensors on my phone function properly when I tilt the phone with a monitoring app on the play store my phone just doesn't rotate.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Dinc User:
My phone went back to getting stuck in portrait. Called Verizon and they're sending me a new one, comes in tomorrow.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] microhaxo:
had the same issue happen to my womans phone. New phone arrives tomorrow. I hope it doesn't happen from charging again. I asked if i could get a new device that doesn't have the hardware defect and they said no, i get a reconditioned device that may or may not have the fix...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] dthemann22:
Just thought I had to share this with you guys since I have had rotate problems since the 3rd day I had this phone. The Samsung customer support agent told me there would be a software update for the phone. I did not want to wait on samsung so I went into one of the service centers in NYC and they told me it was a hardware issue and they helped me send it in to get repaired. The rep at the service center reported the customer support agent for not telling me the truth. They told me it was a problem with the earlier models. They gave me a loaner Galaxy S6E while I wait for mine to be fixed and the same thing happened to that one! Does not rotate after 5 days of using the fast charger. I'm not sure if a software update will fix the issue but I guess time will tell.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] TechBSwift:
Verizon is the only carrier that hasn't attempted to push an update. I bet they are me concerned about closing up root than pushing an update to fix these phones...

How Did you go about this? I've had my 128GB gold edge for 3 days and it won't rotate. Called Verizon and they want me to pay full retail $962 in order to get a new one. When they receive my defective one they will credit that amount back. That just seems crazy to me. It's like paying twice for the possibility of getting another defective phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Dinc User:
That's ridiculous, I just called and explained what happened and they sent me a new one, free of charge, since it's still under warranty. I didn't even buy the phone from them, I bought it brand new off eBay.

Did you get yours from Verizon? Since it's only been 3 days, you could go to a Verizon store and they'll swap it out for you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Fmstgun:
I bought it through Verizon over the phone. I have spoken to 5 different people from tech support to corporate managers. Same answer. Now I'm being told that I'll have to wait another couple weeks to get another device. Horrible... I hate Verizon. If I didn't have unlimited data id be gone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Dinc User:
I'd go to your closest verizon store. They'll swap it out for another if it's within 14 days.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] afh3:
Maybe.

I've had to go through six phones to get two working ones. After taking back the fourth (or was it the fifth, I forget) the manager at the store pronounced the rotation issue to be "fixable in software" and refused to swap the phone - even though I was within 14 days.

They (at the store I went to, anyway) gave me the choice to cancel the entire purchase, or keep my existing defective phone while I wait for the "fix".

I left the store and called Verizon, and after they looked at my history (15 years of paying several hundred per month) they sort of saw things my way when I asked if they knew the number for AT&T wireless.

They shipped a replacement overnight and even credited the shipping to my account.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Fmstgun:
They say "I'm out of luck. " That's a quote. No one has them in stock and supposedly they can't be ordered at the store. Crock of $#!t. I have the option to return my phone and get a refund but I would not be able to order a new one at the moment. WTF.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Dinc User:
File a claim through Samsung. You'll have to ship your phone to them, but at least you'll know it'll be fixed when you get it back.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] logitec33:
I sent my s6 edge in to samsung on wed. They pay for 2 day delivered by 1030am shipping both ways. I saw that the package has been received by samsung, but my repair tracker says they havent assigned the repair to anyone. I strongly suggest to be patient and just send it in, it should only take a week to repair. I have an authorized samsung repair facility near me in LA and they said they were told by samsung to not accept any samsung s6 edge purchased from vzw for repair.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Dinc User:
Well, I've had my replacement from Verison for a few days and no rotation issues yet. Been using the fast charger the whole time too. I'll keep you guys posted if issues arise.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Fmstgun:
What version? 128?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] JediMindTrixx:
I have a 128GB edge with no rotation issues and I also used the fast charger all the time. I had to replace my original phone (64GB) due to the rotation issue. I've had this one since April 13.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] logitec33:
I was having horrible mobile data and wifi lag as well as a screen rotation issue. Every once in awhile it would take upwards of 10 minutes to load a song on pandora. I sent my phone in with both issues. Right now it says a certain rep is working on my device and I should receive it by 6/5/15. Id much rather have my device repaired and wait awhile then to get someone else hand me downs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Ksiynder:
Thank you

Thanks a lot!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Fmstgun:
What is the process to file a claim with Samsung? I think i would much rather have my phone repaired then take a chance on refurb. I still have a few days left on my 14 day so i might got to a different corp store and see if they will order me a new one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] bball840:
I just exchanged mine yesterday at the verizon store. Same problem: X axis accelerometer stuck after using/fast charging for 5ish days. They said they haven't seen that particular issue in their store yet, but the exchange process was seamless because I was still within 14 days.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] dthemann22:
I sent my phone into Samsung about 2 weeks ago. They just fixed it and are sending it back. This is what it says in their email to me. "Problem found: Landscape Display Failure - Internal Battery Failure" "Solution: Replaced Component - Replaced Cosmetic" It's supposed to be delivered by tomorrow. I will let you guys know how mine turns out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Fmstgun:
So... Out of nowhere my phone started to rotate again. My X axis on the accelerometer was stuck at 39.4456 for over a week. Now it's fine! I'm scared to restart or power off my phone. I just hope it stays working, my 14 days are up on Monday.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] bball840:
So, my rotation is screwed up again - one day into the new phone. I did notice that both were built in China on May 06. Time to go back to Verizon...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] logitec33:
Samsung received mine last Friday. I said I have mobile data lag and screen rotation issue. Right now the tracker just says that they've started repairs and now on hold for parts. What issue did you say was wrong to warrant the repair?

---------- Post added at 12:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:27 PM ----------

You should just send it to Samsung.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] jmorisey:
I am not sure if I have the rotation problem or not. Screen Kinetics shows movement (if I am reading it correctly, not sure if I really know what I am looking at) but screens will rotate horizontally, but won't bounce back... Help me decipher this please.

Thank you,

Jon
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] RedTerror98:
Look in the accelerometer values in Sensor Kinetics.... one value should be constant while the other two are changing when you tilt/rotate the phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] jmorisey:
The both move, but slightly... From like 6 to 3. Not as high as yours... No 39
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] RedTerror98:
All three....X,Y,Z values are changing?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] jmorisey:
0,4,0 to 9,6,0

Xyz
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] jmorisey:
Weird thing is, I used the fast Charger for a while and then started using the wireless chargers and then the problem occurred today. I did notice last night when watching YouTube videos that my phone got really hot, could that have caused it?

Also, it will flip horizontally from one side to other, but not bounce back to vertical until I back out of the app and go back in.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] kdan8888:
most of the phone which MADE IN CHINA had that problem!! i don't know if you guys notice that?? and t-mobile ones MADE IN VIETNAM don't have issues! :((
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] TechBSwift:
I'm on day 20 with no issues 64gb Verizon black. However, I've only used the quick charger once

Sent from my SM-G925V using Xparent Green Tapatalk 2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] kdan8888:
probably you didnt use quick charger!! but what the point if you have it and dont use it???? maybe just because of the charger itself??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] elliwigy:
i had black 64gb s6 edge since day one, use quick charger only since i had the phone says made in china and never had any rotation issues
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Aggies1288:
Software update today fixed my rotation issue
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] logitec33:
That is cool there's an update, but I'm glad samsung has repaired my device by replacing a faulty part. It took less then 14 days and I'll have my phone tomorrow.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] DustinBooyah:
Same here, I don't like the idea of a faulty component in my phone. If I install / flash something that depends on said component later down the road, I'll be right back to square one but with no manufacturer's warranty. It's looking like mine will be back pretty soon as well :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] elmanza:
Mine is fixed too with the software update. My accelerometer was stuck and now I checked again and it is working fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] jporter396:
On my second s6 edge 64gb after x axis stuck at -39.4444. Box i had was marked 4-11 as in the date it was sent to the version store likely, new one is marked april. Maybe they have new batches that the rotation issues only effect day 1 devices. The verizon rep confirmed it's a known problem when I askwd. Pretty weak on Samsung part not to acknowledge the situation though, it's all hush hush instead
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] :
I can tell you indeed without a shadow of a doubt this is/was a physical issue. Narrowing it down to a certain batch is pure speculation, at best. My phone was sent into Samsung by me and they replaced both gyroscope and accelerometer. Along with that, the battery and USB port were replaced for an unknown reason. The heat from fast or wireless charge causes the sensor to stick, and then it's done for. If anything the update will reduce charging earlier on in temperature sensing, I noticed "cooling down" quite a bit while on my windshield mount fast charging compared to when I first had it.

Like some said, this update will only fix it for you IF the sensor isn't already fried. Those who hadn't had the problem yet, this will supposedly stop it from ever happening...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] elliwigy:
i posted an internal document saying it was a physical issue caused by fat charger but only some devices were affected and if broke it would need to be physically replaced lol
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShepyNCL:
Ive been trying for a couple of hours now, and just cant figure this out, can anyone help.

I'm trying to pass a file to instagram from Tasker, lets say /sdcard1/curfile.jpg (fails internal too)

I'm trying to pass that to Instagram, through the send intent. I know Instagram accepts files through intents, things like Takeoff app are able to do this.

All i get though is instagram launching, and then crashing. Ive tried what seems to be about every plausible combination of options, but just cant seem to get it right.

Action = android.intent.action.SEND

Cat = None (tried Default also)

Mime Type = image/*

Extra = android.intent.extra.STREAM:file:///sdcard1/curfile.jpg

Package = com.instagram.android

Target = Service

All i ever get though is "Unfortunately, Instagram has stopped"

using the same file path in say File -> open, and the image opens fine.
