[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XoomZoom:
Not as smooth a task for me. I'm Australian and bought mine in the Netherlands, and their support has been terrible. First they told me they can't unlock it, then they said they could but I'd have to fill out a special form so I did, after over a week of hearing nothing I took it upon myself to contact them again, and asked them where my code was, only to be told I had sent the wrong receipt (I was given a few with my purchase), I asked them when they planned on telling me as I would've given them the other receipt upon request but I heard nothing. After unsuccessfully trying 5 different unlock sites I decided I'd go back to the samsung route. I contacted their support again, heard nothing for nearly another week, went on their live chat only to find out they didn't even receive my email, lucky the lady was nice and gave me her personal email and said shed make sure the request went through, but said it'd take 1-2 weeks. So as of the time of this message I've had a $1200 brick for nearly a month, with not much promise of anything really changing. Hopefully this woman will be more helpful than the last few I've had.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ToMerbi:
I got an answer from samsung usa.

they told me that they cant help me because by the law- only the carrier can provide an unlock code.

i send them mail back, hope that's can help.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XoomZoom:
That's bull**** tell them its region locked not carrier locked. Its not illegal to remove a region lock, especially if they're the people that made the damn phone.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ToMerbi:
In the first mail they told me that they cant help me.

i sent them another mail that says the seller told me that he cant help me and the device is locked.

they sent me that mail back: (only relevant part is here)

I dont get it, The link that they gave me looks like the first one, i need the technical support? that's what they meant?

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drew92c:
Hello guys... I have been at this for a few hours now. I own a Note 4 N910H. I had upgraded OTA to lollipop last month. I was reading some reviews on lollipop because I was experiencing a lot of bugs with the OS. A lot of people were having the same issues as me. So I decided to go back to kitkat. This is where my problem happens. I accidentely soft bricked my device.

Everything I've done:

Downloaded kitkat and tried to install via odin. (Didn't check developer settings prior, not sure if this was the problem)

Device soft bricked

Turned on my device and saw this message "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again.

Tried to access Kies, it said my device wasn't supported.

I googled around and saw an article saying I have to go back to lollipop.

I downloaded lollipop and tried to install via odin. It failed again with the same error when I turn on my device.

All help will be greatly appreciated. I really hope I don't have to send my phone back. I don't have a backup lol.

Just flash a custom recovery via odin and reboot and you are good to go:)
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drew92c:
Would that root my device? I don't want to void my warranty. If it doesn't void it, how do I go about doing those steps? This whole thing is driven me nuts.

Edit: THANK YOU!!! All is good now!
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abdyasar:
Use a pit file for it. Because your hidden partition fails. Or you can Flash your latest rom with no error. I think you re trying another rom from your latest.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adamgraver:
Hey guys. Just looking for your opinions: Is the Nexus 5 a good phone to buy now? I'm upgrading from the Galaxy Nexus (Old hardware and laggy software, even on custom Roms and kernels) and looking for a cheap phone with decent internals and smooth performance. Is it a phone that is likely to last, in terms of future proofing? Is there any other decent cheap alternatives with a lightweight OS and good hardware?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antonio1475:
My quick opinion, is that the Nexus 5 is awesome. Beautiful, fast, and great support.

I bought it 2 months ago for 215€ and I am loving it every day.

About lasting it for long, I can't really say. The battery and limited storage may be an issue on the long term (so far great on both, but non-removable and no micro-sd), but I usually change my phone about every 12-18 months, so not really a concern for me: I buy a great, "cheap" phone every year (then re-sell it to recover part), to enjoy them. And so far, I enjoy my Nexus 5 like a little boy.

:)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adamgraver:
Thanks very much for the reply :) I'm more convinced to get it now!!

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] misiek_to_ja:
So it happened only twice and I own the device for 3 weeks. But it starts to worry me a bit. Did you experience a camera app crash while recording video and simultaneously taking photos ? I noticed that sometimes after taking few photos pressing the button one more time makes the app to crash. At first I thought that I pressed the back or recent apps button by accident, but the recorded movie is lost, so it seems like the camera app crashed. Did you experience something like that ? I was trying to replicate the issue, but it seems to work most of the time, but two times I got the crash, I can't recall I did something specific, for sure I started the camera app by pressing the Home button twice and then I was just recording a movie and taking photos at the same time, so very strange. Any ideas what to do to prevent it from happening ? I guess it will be fixed by software update, but I'm just curious how prevalent it is or maybe there is some nice Samsung-specific workaround ? (I'm Samsung newbie)

is there a way to get erased apps back (I have not backup). F. e. I need LG Voice Recorder because this app is used by evernote for voice recordings. I have not thought about that when I erased LG Voice Recorder :rolleyes:

[G2 Android Development (D802)] Kuoi:
LGVoiceRecorder.zip

Download the above file , unzip it and copy it to your phone on any folder (for example /Download)

Install ES file explorer and navigate to the folder and the apk.

Click on the apk and then click on "install"

Should work well (it did work on my phone this way ... but i don't use evernote, so hope evernote will work with it)

[G2 Android Development (D802)] Kuoi:
After installing 30e version of the rom i had the same , but after using the debloater you have the ability to "uninstall" the apps on the rom

If i found some time i'll try to fix this ,but for now if the apps are still there you can uninstall them manualy on rom , sorry
[G2 Android Development (D802)] runekock:
If app is still there after debloat, it might be because there was both a rom-version and an update installed.
[G2 Android Development (D802)] TMG1961:
Thanks for your answer. Will have a look at it.

Could be that, all the apps that were not removed had been updated.

I have zero sympathy for people that spend hundreds of dollars on a smartphone and have shattered screens (and/or backs, when glass) because they didn't protect them with a case. I have more sympathy for their poor phones (even if they are iPhones). Yeah, a phone is less bulky and in some examples sexier without a case, but a wee bit of TPU that costs a few bucks can save you hundreds in a new phone or screen replacements. I'd also opine that a shattered-to-smithereens screen is far uglier than any case.

[Off-topic] 15xda:
Definitely naked. I want my phone to be as small as possible, and the case would just add bulk. I've never physically damaged a phone, though I think the greatest danger would be from keys or coins scratching the screen or camera lens in my pocket, which is a case probably doesn't protect against very much.

That said, I tend to have a lot of phones. I have one "main" phone that I walk around with (currently a Nexus 5X), and then at least three other usable phones for hacking at home not to mention a bunch I could probably borrow for a couple of weeks from work. So if I really destroyed my main phone, I'd immediately have a backup to go to until I secured a replacement. If I only had one usable phone, I might be more careful with it.
