[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] closetredneck:
So I have a totally stock Nexus 9, never rooted, unlocked, anything. I have experience with all that, on my Nexus 5, 7, etc. but was completely happy with my 9 and content to "just use it". Anyway, had encryption enabled, took the 5.1.1 OTA update the other day, and on reboot had constant process com.android.phone stopped error messages. As soon as you acknowledge, the message reappears. Between error popups, I was able to type in my passcode for the screen lock, and try to get into settings, clear caches, etc. Nothing worked. Decided a factory reset was best. No change, still constant errors. Did a factory reset from recovery and bootloader. Still no changes, same constant error. Tried to go through setup but after joining wifi, it sits at the "checking connection" page and goes no further - all with the constant error. It will not allow me to skip setup or skip wifi setup.

Can not flash factory image or do anything from fastboot because bootloader is locked.

Device is running latest bootloader for 5.1.1 but at the top of the bootloader screen it says OS-n/a. Is this normal?

Any suggestions or do I just RMA?
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirk.engelmann@inekon.de:
I have the same problem and found not way to get this fixed. Only wiping user data and reinstalling rom works. The problem returns when rooting and after the first reboot.

Since I´ve got an nexus 9 lte, it might be related to the radio image not included?

Dirk

Hello I have nexus 5. Bootloader unlocked. Running CM 12.1

I downloaded the "Google camera" app.

Here are my questions...

I wantvthe exact camera app that comes stock with the phone..can u link me

Also the HDR setting on the app thatvi have dissapered..what could have happened? How can I get it back?

Thank you
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] F4uzan:
As far as I know, the app from stock is Google Camera. And yes, you get HDR+ on the app too.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Evo_Shift:

That apk mirror link should be the most recent version. If the HDR function doesn't show up on your phone then the ROM is affecting something.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] belladee:
ok so thats what i have.. so now what? my phone is bad? i bought this phone like this.. so its a little over my head on how to do things
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Evo_Shift:
If you just bought the phone I think I would flash back the stock google image so you are running completely stock.

https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images

There are a ton of threads around here and on Google about how to flash a factory image. Once you've done that if you're interested then you can learn about rooting and flashing custom roms and stuff.

Buying a phone with a custom rom isn't a great idea if you don't know how to tinker with stuff like that I don't think. It really is easy to flash a factory image. The "hardest" part is making sure you have the drivers installed.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] belladee:
i didnt realize what i was buying when i did.. i just needed it unlocked.. so i have NO idea how to know if i have drivers. i managed to flash gapps on here so that was something. ill look at that sight.

so you defiantly think that is the problem with the google camera? could it be anything else easier for me to fix?

Hello,

I've been searching for days about how to get ubuntu onto the tf300t. The development thread, I can't really make heads or tales of. I have flashed custom roma before. I've seen franks tools and tubuntu for the tf201. Will this work ov the 300 or is this an impossibility now?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] protivakid:
This is the second time I have experienced this. While driving today using my phone for navigation all of the sudden the voice cuts. I look and the phone says powering off. It takes a few minutes and then reboots to a screen that says it is updating android and not to power off the phone. I kind of knew where I was going but if I did not I would have had to pull over the 15 minutes it took to do this and then check every app I have for lollipop compatibility after.

The update had been bugging me for a couple weeks to install it just like the previous update a couple months back. Each time I hit the home button to get around it without setting a time. Both times however my phone randomly started to auto-install the system update after I ignored it enough times.

Is there a way to prevent these auto forced updates once the OTA update has downloaded itself? Of all the android phones I have had none have ever auto updated the android version without asking permission first.

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ciccetti:
Hi, I hope somebody can help me.

I have a Chinese SM-G9200. I did the following:

- pingpong root

- installed Flashify to install TWRP (success) and it asked to reboot

but during reboot now it says "Custom binary blocked by C-ROM" in pink on the top left corner of the screen of the boot Galaxy logo, then it shuts down :crying:

I cannot have it to complete the boot sequence anymore. See the picture attached.

Also when I try recovery mode is the same pink writing and then shuts down.

Only possibility is to go in download mode, but if I try to upload with Odin, the usual screen that says:

Installation Failure

You need to unlock your device to install a custom OS.

For information about how to unlock, please refer to your device information at wwwsamsungcom/cn.

Please press the power key to restart.

Please somebody help me to get back the phone to life!!! how can I unblock it?

thanks

try to flash only stock recovery, and only from your original rom. if boot's just unlock bootloader with crome aplication found on galaxy store
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ciccetti:
Hi criszz,

Thanks! Where can I get the stock recovery? And then do I flash it with Odin in the PDA button?

Ciao
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hemant:
you need to first install CROM from Galaxy app store and then unclock the bootloader. CROM is official Samsung software.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ciccetti:
WORKS!!!

Reinstalled the whole stock ROM, then CROM from Galaxy Store.

My phone is back and now it's unlocked. Thanks!!! :highfive:

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Leelowbang:
Criszz,

Could you explain the procedure in detail as I have the same exact problem with my HK version Edge. Thanks
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ciccetti:
well... I've installed TWRP, but the touchscreen doesn't work, and also the buttons don't work in TWRP. How can I move the cursor?

I need to install the gapps...

I've installed TWRP 2.8.6.2. Is there any other version or any other recovery tool that works?

Or: is there any other way to install the gapps on this chinese S6?

Thanks for the support!!! :angel:
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Leelowbang:
Ciccetti,

Could you tell me what steps you have taken to put the phone back to life. My phone always stuck at the logo screen like yours.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ciccetti:
you need to reinstall the exact stock ROM for your mobile. You can find it for example on the sammobile website.

then install it with Odin: you can find the procedure by googling. the phone should not complain about "installing custom software", because it is the stock ROM.

once you are done, go on the galaxy store (icon on the phone) and search for C-ROM app. Install it and unlock your phone.

once done, you can reinstall TWRP with Flashify.

One hint: at the end of the flashify flashing, do not hit reboot button, otherwise the phone will only boot in TWRP and will not boot anymore into normal mode, and you have to reflash everything again.

Instead, after the flashify, do not press reboot, but hold the power button until the popup comes up and then press power off. Then after the phone is well off, keep volume up, home and power to boot into TWRP. Then you will be able to boot again into the normal phone.

Problem is: I can't get the touchscreen to work on TWRP and also the hardware buttons. How can I install the gapps?
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Leelowbang:
So the stock rom should include the stock recovery so that once Odin finishes installation, it will replace TWRP recovery and the phone should be able to bypass the boot lock?
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ciccetti:
Exactly!
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ciccetti:
ok. found the way to install gapps using flashify.

telling flashify to install gapps through twrp doesn't require to use any button or touch in twrp. so now it is all set!!! :victory:
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Leelowbang:
Do I need to locate the exact version of the stock rom in the phone? if it is a different (either older or newer) version, will it work? I ask this because I rooted the phone by pingpong root about three weeks ago and since then, Samsung has updated at least twice of their official stock rom.

mate, TWRP chinese version with english theme you need.

HERE>>> http://pan.baidu.com/s/1eQxVcIm?thi...6%98%9FS6%E8%B5%84%E6%BA%90%E5%90%88%E9%9B%86
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ciccetti:
IT WORKS!!! thanks BrasoV!!!! :highfive:

so to recap:

Galaxy S6 bought in China SM-G9200

root with Pingpong (google it)

download C-ROM from the Galaxy Store to unlock it from flashing custom roms

download TWRP Chinese version (the "normal" one is not responsive to touch screen), with the English translation (for example, google "SVA SM-G9200" and download G9200-TWRP-2.8.6.0-CN(0601).tar and S6_TWRP_English_theme.zip)

Copy the English theme for TWRP on the phone (extract ui.zip from archive, put it into "/sdcard/TWRP/theme/" directory)

activate the USB debug mode on the phone (google "how to ...")

Install TWRP with Odin 3.10.6 (google "how to ...")

Boot the phone in normal mode

google "Flashify apk", download it and install it

run Flashify, click install GAPPS (choose gapps 5.0), choosing the TWRP option

DONE!!! now you have a S6 dual sim with GAPPS and a working TWRP!!!

NB: KNOX gets tripped and Triangle away doesn't work (yet)

THANKS BRASOV and all the other people!!!

Google Play Services on G9200 CHC

Absolutely Awesome :good: You guys saved my life with this solution having almost given up on my G9200 CHC version entirely.

No matter what I tried I always kept getting the "Google Services stopped working" message, even after I had rooted the phone. Then I did the mistake of updating to latest official firmware via Samsung Switch - only made everything worse.

If you did it anyway, here's how to fix it, and get back on track so you can apply the solution provided in this thread:

1. Download the firmware version that was originally installed on the phone (in my case G9200ZCU1AOD9)

2. Boot the phone in download mode and push the original firmware via Odin 3.10.6

3. Boot the phone normally and let it get to the Samsung logo - where it will get stuck/freeze

3. Now enter recovery mode (hold down Volume Up, Power and Home until the boot logo appears)

4. now Wipe data / factory reset and Wipe cache partition, then boot your phone normally.

5. The rest was piece of cake once I found this thread

I tried a million ways to get Gapps on my phone without rooting, but none of them work, even many methods with rooting never worked for me. This one worked, and everything is running smoothly now.

Thanks everyone.......

dear all,

did anybody succeed in installing the GAPPS on the SM-G9200 with the new update to lollipop 5.1.1?

i'm referring to ROM G9200ZCU1BOH2.

i succeeded in installing the G9200-TWRP-2.8.7.0-LL51-CN, but when I flash the GAPPS for 5.1.x and hit reboot, the phone doesn't boot anymore and I have to reinstall the stock ROM...

any clue?

- does this chinese rom have the gapps?

- does the cpu go in deep sleep (you can check with CPU spy)? this is critical for the battery life

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jadarsan:
Hi - Thank you Ciccetti and others for this thread - after a few month of owning my S9200 - I had the courage to get GAPPS and was quite happy.

1) However one thing I have noticed is excessive battery drainage / short battery life - a problem that I totally didn't have before. Have you experienced the same? any suggestions?

2) (Another question as I am a newbie, I assume with a rooted phone you cannot even dare to upgrade or it will brick the phone. correct? (just thinking as new upgrade/firmware could help with battery life issues).

3) Finally - GAPPS + original stuff on S9200 - soooo much bloatware - where is that smooth fast phone we hoped for - is the solution custom rom? anyone can point me in the right direction? (again just don't want to delete accidentally stuff i'm not supposed to).

Once again a deepfelt thanks - if not guys like you our foreigner life in china would even be more frustrating.

Cheers,

Jad
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ciccetti:
regarding 1) with TWRP the CPU doesn't go anymore in deep sleep, so, after the whole process, reinstall the stock recovery, and the battery will be good again.

regarding 2) you can upgrade to 5.1.1 and no bad things will happen, but you will lose the GAPPS and root.

regarding 3) you can uninstall all the bloatware, especially the badoo stuff. Anyway, currently I use SVA which is on 5.1.1 and works like a charm. It costs 15$. Beware: you cannot unroot SVA, unfortunately, so some enterprise applications will not work...

[Sprint LG G2] Malik93:
One more thing i have ls980 ZVC software can i update to lollipop over the OTA???
[Sprint LG G2] :
Sorry this is late.. What is your service provider? Maybe that is why you're not getting updates. Sprint and Boost will OTA update to ZVG which is the lollipop you're looking for. Or you can study the threads to get Cyanogen 12 which is lollipop (5.0.2) based. If you're on a different provider, it's possible your LS980 was flashed to work on their service which makes it ineligible to update to ZVG.

[General Topics] DoakAdams:
Before you buy Tom Tom consider how you will be supported after your purchase. Software is an investment and is only good as it is currently applicable to it's use. In this case navigation software needs to be updated with new maps to be current. Upgrades have always been a part of software to allow current users to upgrade to new functionality while preserving some part of the initial investment and garnering customer loyalty.

In this case Tom Tom told me via customer service line the only way to get Tom Tom 6.x was to go buy it, NO UPGRADE.

So the choice is simple, I will go buy a competitor and NEVER buy a Tom Tom Product again.

Tom Tom thinks they are big bad and #1 so they forget about existing customers. Think again and watch as a competitor that takes care of customers takes the lead.
[General Topics] mikealder:
What you claim is not quite true, TomTom have never charged for the application software so you can download vs6 software and install it to your device for free. What does require paying for is a vs6 compatible map, maps cost money to produce and it is these that are charged for - Mike

add to that, that virtual no-one lets you have V5 to V6 for free, you can have v5.99999999999 but not v6, NERO Burning are a classic example of the same and no one complains

That does not make sense. I upgraded from v5 to v6 just by buying the map upgrade from the TomTom site. Either the rep did not know what they are talking about or you have some other agenda.
