[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TwoWheelDeal:
Reposting this in General S6E instead of TmobileS6E, for more exposure.

Here's the predicament. I got my S6E yesterday set it up, used for the rest of the day with no qualms.

When I went to put it on the charger it was at 7%, i thought to myself, I'll use an Apple 5W charger for a slower charge throughout the night.

I figured the slower, low powered charge will be better for the battery.

As it was charging it stopped in the middle of the night at 20%. From there, the phone constantly went from Charging, not charing, charging, not charging; repeatedly until I woke up to discover it at 7:20AM. I plugged in the phone at 2:30AM. It must have been in this charging on/off loop since 2:45AM or so. The phone was pretty toasty. The screen was on and the phone kept making that noise when you connect/disconnect from the charger.

So my question. will 4ish hours of everything i just mentioned fry the battery?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yak84:
I don't think so but only time will tell.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oliv3:
No, but why did you leave it if it was going on/off.

Use a different 5W charger.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FunThomas76:
Hi there,

i am searching for an app that can backup automatically some folders from internal sd-card to external-sd card(not to cloud), if it can be scheduled then it will be perfect :)

Does someone know such an app ?

best regards,

Thomas

Foldersync (playstore) works perfect and you can schedule it.

You can choose you int sd as folder and sync to ext sd.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ambasadii:
is partition /preload is protected when we have "Current binary: Custom" ?

during installation process of my custom rom (based on G920FXXU1AOE3 with modified CSC to XEO only) i'm format this partition by command for example:

run_program("/sbin/mount", "-t", "auto", "/preload");
delete_recursive("/preload");

before that i have flash by PC Odin branded firmware with branded apps in partition /preload but they are still installing when the custom rom is boot.

i check folder /preload and it's empyt so any ideas ?
[General Accessories] km8j:
Does anyone have the newish Era and can comment on the audio quality after the original firmware update? All the original reviews indicate there were some audio issues but then jawbone released an update that allegedly improved on these things.
[General Accessories] Lemmy Caution:
I just upgraded mine - it seems a little clearer. I'll use it some tomorrow and follow-up.

It is running firmware 1.3 was running 1.2.

there's a larger issue though if you have earlier headsets which I do.

Jawbone is no longer providing updates to older devices which is their prerogative however, I prefer the older ERA to the current one for a number of reasons:

Build quality - my new ERAs look pretty sad despite the fact that I rarely used them the bronze and silver paint has worn off the edges revealing white plastic where the paint was. My old ERAs still look great.

Battery life is dismal on the new ones - 2 hours max talk time - 4 hours on the older ones.

The Noise cancelling Noise Assassin 4.0 on the newer ones does not squelch wind noise nearly as well as the older model.

As I mentioned - I will give it a day or two and post my thoughts here.
[General Accessories] webmetin:
Hi I have a possibility to run Jawbone offline? :fingers-crossed::rolleyes:
[General Accessories] Lemmy Caution:
"Hi I have a possibility to run Jawbone offline? "

How do you mean?

I can't find my last working jawbones - need to find a good substitute.
[General Accessories] webmetin:
The Android app is no longer working. I cannot adjust the settings of the headset with special settings. Is there a different application that can be used to replace the original app of jawbone? or do you have the possibility to open your own application jawbone account?
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] thelous:
I just recived a OTA update (size: 76 mt). update included new kernel and bug fixes. So far my tablet been running little bit smoother. Also graphics bugs are fixed in few HD games. i guess we are getting lollipop in few weeks :)

Just curious, can you tell me the build number (settings > about device) ? Thanks, and I am rooting for you to get the lollipop update quickly! :)

build number is KOT49H.T230XXU0AOD2 and tablet is european version. And tab 4 10.1 owners have verified that you can root using TWRP in lollipop and all tabs recive same update so it will work on 7.0 version too. Heres link for official firmware. (hyperlink in word "heres")

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] jeffr:
I have searched for the last 3 days and can not come up with anything.

I upgraded to wm6 awhile back and on wm5 I was using dialup networking which worked perfectly.

Now with wm6 I guess you dont have dun anymore, so there's something called Internet sharing.

I found the Internet sharing feature 2 days into my trying to get dun working.

So my problem is Internet sharing does not seem to work.

I run the Internet sharing apps on the mda wm6 phone and it seems like its doing something as it says "connected"

,but when I try and find a bluetooth service from the laptop the only service available is serial port.

I tried using the microsoft bluetooth drivers and figured they were crap and not working so I got the d-link drivers finally working and still nothing.

I am wondering if my Faria's cooked rom is missing something.

Any ideas?

Jeff
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] jeffr:
I gave up

well... after playing some more I just figured too much was corupted in the registry/rom (faria) for Internet sharing to work.

I flashed to XDA 6.0 and Internet sharing worked perfect.

Now I have to reinstall everthing by hand :(

I think thats were the problem was as during my upgrade from wm5, I thought I would try and save the reinstall step and I restored from a backup, most things worked ,but little things still didnt work.

hope this helps someone :)

[Nexus 6  General] rasengan82:
Hey guys,

Just for informational purpose I want to share my awful experience over the weekend. This is my first Nexus that I've decided to keep the boot loader locked with everything stock. Basically I sideloaded the 5.1.1 OTA on my N6 and that went smooth. After side loading it, I decided to wipe my cache from recovery. The formatting cache message kept going for over 20 minutes so I thought it hung and I forced boot my phone. Now I got stuck in a boot loop and when accessing the recovery screen I started getting "could not mount /cache" error messages. So now I decided to factory reset from recovery and lo and behold... Formatting /data went on for over 20 minutes so I forced boot my phone again...now i had a corrupted /data and /cache partition so I thought my phone was 100% bricked since I had a locked boot loader. I searched google and found some N5 threads about people complaining about the same issue but found a post saying the formatting can take over 20 minutes. As my last chance I went to recovery and factory reset it again. I got tons of messages about the cache partition failing to mount but I let the factory reset continue. After 30 minutes the data and cache partition format finished and my phone was able to boot again. So moral of the story... Be patient..lol
[Nexus 6  General] bwheelies:
Moral of the story; unlock your bootloader and don't live in fear.
[Nexus 6  General] gee2012:
+1 , i used my thanks ;)
[Nexus 6  General] rasengan82:
Yup I did unlock it right away after fixing this issue. Man I'm lucky forced booting during cache or data wipe didn't mess with the other partitions.
[Nexus 6  General] gee2012:
+1 Well done, if something ever goes wrong you have a way out ;)
[Nexus 6  General] rasengan82:
Flasholic since Nexus one and I thought the n6 would be the first nexus I would not unlock the bootloader lol. What are the implications of this with encryption and the enhance device protection in 5.1?
[Nexus 6  General] gee2012:
Some users decrypt to get faster reading and writing speed, its advantages are theoretical though imo. In real life it doesn`t make much difference in performance so the gain is marginal. Not worth the hassle for me.
[Nexus 6  General] bill3508:
Its feel nice when those little beads of sweat start popping out of your forehead and your thinking oh **** what happened. Keeps you on your toes.
[Nexus 6  General] gee2012:
If your anxious when you flash you need to read up bro, if you have the skills you have nothing to worry about and you just do your thing and follow the procedures :)
[Nexus 6  General] doitright:
There is nothing theoretical about it. The gains are VERY easily measured and astronomical.

And while it may not have a massive moment to moment advantage for **YOUR USE**, it does, in fact, have a great advantage to a lot of people who have frequent and large reads and writes. It is important for you to recognize that not everyone uses their phone in the same way.

---------- Post added at 01:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:53 PM ----------

Hahahaha, I remember the days of using more primitive electronics, where any operation on the storage device could REALLY brick it if you didn't let it complete. Usually, "community" instructions for hacking on those types of things came with big honking warnings about pulling the plug prematurely and the dire consequences of doing so.

I've bricked a few bioses over the years... have you ever hot swapped a bios on a live mainboard so you could reflash the thing? Fun stuff I tell you....
[Nexus 6  General] rasengan82:
Haha nice prolly the storage chip on the phones don't brick because it doesn't have mechanical parts like regular HD. I'm sure you can still damage a regular HD if you shutdown during a format.
[Nexus 6  General] gee2012:
Hell yeah, you can break everything if you realy mean too ;)
[Galaxy Note 4 General] ahmedrehan:
Most other variants including N910F and N910G seem to have received BOE update while N910C lags behind. Last update BOC5 has a build date of march 2015. It's really annoying that the Note 4 in general isn't getting the treatment it deserves. Specially the N910C. Other exynos variants seem to have received it.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Toss3:
Any special improvements in those updates that you need or is it just that you need to have the latest version?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] ahmedrehan:
Actually both! 5.0.1 isn't a smooth lollipop update already. Of special concern to me is the overheating isuue. And then there's the flashaholic inside ?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] galaxynote2:
BOD2/BOE2 arent too much different than the BOC5 update. They are newer builds since they were compiled later than the N910C ones but that doesn't mean they're more stable than BOC5. You just need to wait. There's a lot of time until your device gets obsolete for Samsung and his 18 months of updates policy.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] one-option:
Samsung was busy with Galaxy S6/Edge 6, and now they are busy with Note 5, and after Note 5 they will be busy with Galaxy S7.

Samsung is so busy, there is no time for Note 4, remember they already got your money, so you are not important to them anymore ............................ WELCOME TO SAMSUNG GREEDY WORLD.

If you are looking for stable faster updates cycle then try any other OEM other than Samsung like HTC, Motorola or even LG.

For me I feel really sorry that I got Note 4, I though Samsung will deal with me like a King and send me fast updates & others will envy me, but they sent me BOC5 with bugs & issues, and then Samsung went directly to fix Galaxy S6 issues and forgot about other Smartphones.

[Galaxy Note 4 General] ahmedrehan:
Well it's generally agreed upon that you get 18 months of support and updates. While with samsung i got ONE buggy unoptimized update in 7 months!!

With every other OEM having phablets at 5.7" or more. Samsung is definitely not my next android phone vendor.

But again that's just passive-aggressive. I want my ****ing stable lollipop Updates!! If anyone knows is there anything we can do?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Toss3:
Read the post above - they just released BOE1 for the 910c.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] ahmedrehan:
What?! And stay stuck with 5.0.1 for anothe 6 months?!!! You gotta be kidding man
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Toss3:
Don't think samsung is planning on updating the note 4 to 5.1 with 5.2 being announced in a couple of weeks. At least it should solve some of the minor bugs in lollipop.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] ahmedrehan:
Should've been working on it for a while, my friend. 5.1 has been out a month ago or something

Colors are little bit different then in stock rom, little less saturated, call quality is the same as in CM12.1, it's also bad, camera app crashes when you switch from rear to front camera, and quality of photos is awful, i'm not sure about Whatsapp, didn't try it...It's a good rom overall, very fast and stable, but it has those few bugs.

[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] Ashareth:
For the screen, same thing there, but hitting the "Power" button is enough to light it up for me (i didn't put the option where Power answer/terminate calls).

For the screen to light up with notifications, it's not possible by default i think, but Xposed modules like Gravity Box or Wanam Kit should allow that.

[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] Ashareth:
Stock 5.1.1 won't happen for a very long time on Alpha (i'm not even sure all versions of the Alpha got 5.0.2 stock yet....).

To install the Rom, RR or CM, it's "easy" :

- Flash stock 5.0.2 with Odin

- Flash the custom bootloader with Odin (TWRP or CWM, TWRP seems to encounter less problems specially if you use the 2.8 version from memory). TWRP file is linked in the op i think.

Then put the Rom file on your phone, reboot into recovery (either use an app from the playstore allowing to reboot into recovery or hold (from memory) Vol UP + Home + Power at reboot, don't work everytime, the device is peculiar on that combo, can take a few tries to get in :p), flash the Rom, then flash the minimal gapps and you're done.

There is threads about TWRP/CWM into the Specific Android Dev forum you really want to read. Otherwise the method is the same than the one for rooting/puting custom recovery on the Alpha when under KK, it's just the files that differ.

Main differences between RR and CM is that RR implement quite some changes/options/specifications from other Roms into a CM-base, and some things aren't totally at the same stage (the audio fixes and such) because both devs tries different things for now.

Overall both are usable.

Camera quality is the same from what i can say, audio still have some problems for some, specifically over BT or VoiP and a few other quirks, but it's on both Roms.

Overall battery quality is nothing like stock Rom. With basically the same setup (except i added 4 mail addresses syncing on the RR rom) i went from 12h top battery life on stock 5.0.2 (with lagging, stuttering and other bs due to the unfixed memory leaks in LP 5.0.2) to 30h when playing a bit on top (granted i installed Xposed and Greenify+ADAway+MinMinGuard but that alone don't more than double battery life :D).

[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] Ashareth:
To answer a question that was asked some time ago, this Rom (at least the 2015.07.22 version) isn't vulnerable to the stagefright vulnerability (according to the 2 stagefright detector apps out there, including the one by those who discovered the vulnerability).

I guess it's the same for the CM12.1 Roms in the other part of the forum, no idea for other Roms, but Samsung is supposedly switching to monthly ota security updates for most their phones, and there is an app to block MMS somehow, all details here : https://blog.zimperium.com/stagefright-vulnerability-details-stagefright-detector-tool-released/).
