[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] SeveralBunnies:
I've been having an issue with my 8.4 pretty much since day 1, and I've been having trouble finding out what the actual cause is.

The problem is that my tab (8.4) doesn't respond to anything at least once a day. The screen is off, and it doesn't respond when I plug it in the charger or press any of the physical buttons.

I did find two 'fixes' to get the tab running again:

1. Refit the battery

2. Holding down the power button for ~30 seconds

After doing so the tab functions properly, and also the battery is at a normal level (so it doesn't show that it's fully drained).

Some more info:

1. I'm running CM12.1, and had this issue with various nightlies.

2. It also happens when the tab is charging.

3. It also happened one or two times when I was using the tab. The screen freezes for ~3 seconds until it goes to black. Same procedures were needed to get it going again.

I checked numerous threads and spent quite some time googling, to no avail. So I'm hoping you guys can help me in finding out what is causing this. If you need more info, please let me know.

Nobody has a clue? :( Maybe a way to find out whether it's hardware or software related?
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] redpoint73:
Haven't heard of this particular issues. All I can think of is to try another ROM, or return to stock. At that point, if you are still having issues across ROMs, and/or on stock, I'd be inclined to think its a hardware issue.

[Google Chromecast] samteeee:
Greetings;

My second Chromecast (HubCap Method) has fallen to constant reboots!

I usually check them visually through the on board LED, if it's white, it's fine.

But today I wanted to just check both my Chromecasts thoroughly and brought up

their Eureka Panels and both seemed fine. But once I went to watch it on my

display the above mentioned CC was showing "Blank Screen"! My reboots attempts

through app and panel both resulted back to "Blank Screen" again!! I do see the "Eureka"

boot animation and as mentioned before the Panel and app for that matter show everything

as normal! So for now I took off grid, no power, no internet till I can maybe get

some sense as to what might be the cause of this.

Any help is much appreciated.

Edit: The reason behind this: HDCP Error!!

How to resolve this: Just turn your display/TV off & on!!!

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shamid202:
Hi

the story is I had a Hong Kong version galaxy s5 G900F model and i wanted to install googles apps and stuffs on it so i tried to root it and as i was NOOB it got a odin failled message. after that phone vibrated and turned on but there were no picture, while it was trying to boot with the blue light on the top it has the samsung booting sound played only half the way and would stay in booting for ever. still no picture ! no physical damage to the phone its only 6days only.

it boots to download mode. even goes to CWM but still no picture. I have z3x box and I have flashed the phone with 4 files still no luck! no picture

Restored the latest firmware with re partitioning enabled, still no luck! the only thing i have not tried is jTag.

I have even tried two different brandnew screens on the phone still no luck! I have tried custom kernel no luck!

I have a repairer friend he said the display driver may have been erased? is there anything like that? is there any way to fix?

I hope someone here can help me !
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
Shouldn't have ticked the re-partition box without a PIT file

You'll need the stock firmware from sammobile dot com and ODIN, and the PIT file from here

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2721101&d=1399024091

Add the PIT file and ROM to ODIN together, boot to download mode on the phone, hit start

It will flash the PIT file, then it will flash the ROM, all being well, it should boot back up normally
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shamid202:
as i already have explained i already have done it with PIT file ! it seems turning on but no picture !
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
Nowhere in your post did you mention a PIT file
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shamid202:
common man im looking to solve the problem. its obvious if i click on re partition i have to use .pit file.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
Not at all, you managed to brick it, that tells me you don't really know what you're doing, so fairly likely you could have ticked it without knowing you had to use a PIT file

Anyway, if you've successfully flashed a stock ROM using PIT, and it still has no display, it sounds like a hardware fault, there's not much else you can do software wise other than what you've already done

EFS Partition in tact? I know that contains some fairly important data, including IMEI and radios, not sure if it has anything to do with display, but if you lost that, you can't fix it by reflashing ROMs

How do you know it's in download mode if there is no display?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shamid202:
well it can be detected via odin and samsung tool when i press down the volume down power and home and after that volume up.

as i said its just 6days old and had no issues before i start this process.

I was really big on themeing via flashable zips back in the Galaxy Nexus days. Been away from it for a long time, but I still remember how to do most of it.

I got my framework and all that good stuff, but I can't seem to find the launcher apk in the new M preview. Did they move the launcher drawable files into the framework itself or something? I want to change the app drawer and such to make myself a dark theme.

Let me know what I'm missing.

[Micromax Canvas 4 A210] mn1968:
Hi,

I know I'm late to the party but I just picked up a BLU Life One cheap, which is basically the same phone as the Canvas 4 A210. So far I like the phone but the one thing driving me crazy is that after about 10 seconds the screen dims - whether auto-brightness is checked or not. I've found that it corresponds to the capacitive buttons (back, menu, home) turning off. It's surprising that there is no setting to keep the lights on or off.

I have rooted and installed Xposed Framework but have yet to find the module that can control this. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Edit:

So I've discovered that the screen dimming issue is a BLU thing. After flashing a couple of the Micromax A210 roms, the screen dimming issue goes away. Unfortunately, my data speeds drop down to edge, as pointed out by cabegol. I tried flashing his modem fix, but to no avail. I will try again next weekend when I have more time to play with the phone.

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonnibravo:
Just bought a Samsung S6 Edge, my first venture into samsung devices since before I purchased my first HTC the G1. I have always been an HTC fan but I thought this phone look pretty special and so I took the plunge.

Since then however I have been nothing but disappointed. When I first started to use the phone it was very responsive and the screen and features are very impressive, however my HTC M8 is at the moment considerably faster with Lollipop 5.02 and M9 ported software than my S6 Edge despite having considerably more power. When I open the smart case the screen only turns on for 1 second then turns itself off, the phone is laggy and it can take some apps several seconds to launch. Side by side with my M8 it just isn't coming close using the same setup and the same apps.

After having brushed of the fiasco over the charger of my Samsung Gear Live watch breaking the rear of the watch I am not sure I trust Samsung?

What is wrong with this device??
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omf05:
I came from the HTC One M8 and s6 Edge is faster.

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sword Fish:
Your issues point to a rouge app. It sounds like the app is sucking CPU time constantly and thus your phone is overheating. This also causes big time lag and battery drain. Get an app like GSAM or Better Battery to see which app is causing the issue and then kill the app!!

Download Better Battery Stats and see what your leading kernel wake lock is. Mine was something no one had heard of and Google had NO info about.

Oh wow. I've got the exact same issue. So this is something that can only be remedied by replacement?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Synyster06Gates:
Your chart looks crazy. They're ALL at 100%. I'd return it if flashing stock firmware didnt fix it.

Use smart switch to back up your apps and data, then use it to reinstall the firmware. Restore your apps/data and see if you're fixed. You'll be all stock again but its worth a shot before doing the return.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emrug:
Maybe it's caused by memory link.

I believe all this lagging issue is caused by memory link. My Ram is always on 87% (2.2 GB of Ram) yet i'm not running any app, sometimes i tap and it doesn't respond, then after a couple seconds it responds to all the taps made which drives it nuts. Otherwise, i love it, it's very fast and smooth most of the time. Been a fun of HTC for years, S6 Edge is my first Samsung Phone and i don't regret changing. Hope they fix the few problems some of us got.

Flashing firmware must be done correctly to avoid any chances of bricking. The rom your phone is running doesn't affect the ability to update firmware. Before answering your question, I must know your phone info. Post the output of "fastboot getvar all" except for your IMEI and Serialno.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomstrummer:
Yup, understood that particular firmwares are dependent on things like CID but in most cases I've seen (e.g. post linked in OP) it's generally discussed in the context of restoring to stock. So my big question was whether or not it could only be done while stock. Thanks for clearing that up!!

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
With s-on you can only flash same or higher firmware that match your phone info (CID, MID, Firmware base (x.xx.502.x). So you can only flash x.xx.502.x firmware unless you achieve s-off and change your CID and MID in some cases. Its important not to update the firmware using a firmware.zip file from an ota update unless you do it incrementally. These firmware.zip are only patches to be applied on the correct version. If you update from 1.xx.502.x to lets say 3.xx.502.x using a firmware.zip from an ota update, you will brick your phone. Better to find a full firmware.zip (not from an ota). Are you still on the at&t network? If yes the simplest would be to flash an at&t RUU to get back to stock, update the phone using the ota updates and then reflash the CM rom. Safest way to update your firmware without bricking.

IF not on the at&t network, you should s-off it, change the CID to BS_US001 and a dev edition ruu, update it and then reflash CM
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomstrummer:
Thanks for the thoughtful response. I *am* on ATT, but I can only seem to find the ATT RUU on Windows, as what looks like it will be a long series of incremental updates, and I've only got a Mac besides. I finally S-OFF'd using revone.

I found a full, flashable 6.09 firmware from this thread which I think I can try now that I'm S-OFF.

It's sort of weird that

version-main

in my fastboot vars is blank, don't you think?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomstrummer:
To wrap up this thread (and partially answer my own question) I went with the no-wipe firmware from this thread after getting S-OFF of course. It left my recovery partition alone (good) but did update the radio to 4T.23 - which I believe is a TMo radio but seems to work great on ATT. Speed test reports 20Mb down/ 13Mb up.

Last thing I'm wondering is if there's any reason to change my CID back to what it was versus leaving it in SuperCID... But that is offtopic from my original Q.

I have a Verizon Samsung Galaxy S4 on build lrx22c.i545vrugoc1 and would like to flash a Play Edition ROM.

Everything I have read so far suggests that it can not be done because Verizon locked the bootloader somehow with the latest update.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rrrrrrredbelly:
You're correct, though the BL has always been locked. I don't believe there is any way to root the LL build as of now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] zeb carter:
Actually, if you go into the different sections, root has been gained for updates after the initial MDK bootloader. MDK is still the only version of the bootloader that is capable of running custom roms without having to use safestrap.

Having root and the capability or ability of running custom roms are two horses of a different color.

I didn't say you couldn't root different builds, i said the bootloader has never been unlocked.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] legonate:
If you are on oc1 boot loader there is no way to root and you can't downgrade from oc1 so you can't gain root

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
OC1 CAN be rooted with KingRoot. Many people reported that the chinese app works.

As far as ROMs for OC1, there is nothing like AOSP. Only Touchwiz ones. Only Play edition SIMILAR ROMs are eclipse and Kitpop, which you cannot do because you are on OC1. You can Root, and get a stockdeodex ROM, that is about it.

The bootloader has been locked for ages. Only unlocked bootloader is for MDK, which was about 2-3 years back. No hack for the bootloader has been found as of yet.
