Essentially, what I'm reading is that you bought an S6, to not have an S6. The Nexus 6 may not have a 64-bit processor, but it is one of the smoothest running phones in existence. If it's that important to you, learn to build your own ROM. Be the dev you want to see. If it's not that important to you, don't complain about the phone you purchased. You could've waited for the next stock andrid phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] mikeyinid:
[MENTION=2557864]Slicktune[/MENTION] you bought the wrong phone. You've been *****ing about CM since a few days after the S6 dropped. We'll be lucky if we see CM before the end of the year, realistically. I'd say there's a 70% chance we'll never see it. So, either suck it up and deal with TW or bounce to the next device.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] serio22:
When did Samsung say there would be less bloat or better ram management? You saw all of that on blogs which have no connection to Samsung
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] NJGSII:
You're speaking to someone who had both of those devices. Memory management was superior on 5.1.1. on the Nexus but this phone beats it in performance and battey.

Hi all,

Am I the only one with crazy drop calls and fading voice/voice cutting out? The issue is a lot worse after I updated to OE2. Loosing Internet while on a call too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Demiurge7:
I don't notice any difference in call quality or increased dropped calls on this device personally. In fact I have yet to have it drop a call, even in spotty areas.

You need HD calling on (and be in 4g coverage) to talk and use data simultaneously on the s6, if you haven't already turned that on.

Sent from my SM-G925V
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] b00st4ddicted:
Thanks for the reply. HD calling is on. For some reason it turns off by itself from time to time? Very weird.... didn't do it as bad before the update

after being sucked into the oe1 vortex, (they pulled a sneaky on me)... can we use odin just to root and/or install custom recovery(s), or is it locked out completely?... I know we cannot load roms, downgrade, etc. ... I want to root, install twrp or phils, and then probably load Noterized... but I need to know if Odin can be used to load cf-autoroot and then a custom recovery, AFTER having installed the -oe1 update... thanks in advance for any and all help...
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EpicBarbecue:
Yes to root....no for unrooting :)

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] catseyenu:
So they are stuck on LP?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DreamingWolf:
OE1 is also LP, just newer firmware with a bootloader that prevents downgrading.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] catseyenu:
So CM infected them with the bootloader of no return.

/SMH...
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DreamingWolf:
Not really. When they re-base a ROM, they set it to work with the latest firmware (i.e. radios). They don't change the bootloader and CM doesn't flash one when it installs. So they didn't infect anyone. They were just trying to stay current with the latest firmware.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] catseyenu:
Thanks, that sounds a little better.

I looked in the Sprint Development forum and didn't see the posts, where is this being discussed?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] airplane_guy:
So I'm stuck. Not my first rodeo by a long shot but my note 4 got the OE1 without my knowledge. No prior backup or even root on ob7. Had myself a big sigh and rooted through Odin, no big deal. Trying to install TWRP says it succeeds in Odin. But when I try to boot into recovery it fails and kicks to download mode. Is there a version of TWRP for this update or should I go back to Philz?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DreamingWolf:
When you flashed TWRP did you have autoreboot checked in Odin? If you did you should edit Odin.ini and change the value of autoreboot from 1 to 0, save it then flash TWRP. This time after it says success it will just sit there. Remove the usb cord, pull the battery, then replace the battery and boot directly into recovery by vol up+home+power. I have found that TWRP often doesn't flash properly if you reboot into system instead of recovery immediately after the flash.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] airplane_guy:
I have never had that problem but I will check once I get home. I've never had to post here in 4 years since everything has already been answered, but I figured running around without a functioning recovery might not be the best option... Thanks.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mlongue1:
hey, airplane guy, sounds as if u got jumped by -oe1 like me... i had a dm-verity error earlier last week, and when i finally borke down and re-loaded -ob7, they downloaded/loaded -oe1 when i went to the kitchen to get a drink... i had forgotten that AUTO-UPDATE is default ON... anyway, in my adventures this week of loading twrp, i found that just flashing it is not enough, u have to IMMEDIATELY boot/reboot to recovery, so the SCRIPT has a chance to OVERWRITE the auto-command to TRASH the recovery u just loade and revert to stock recovery... so when u reboot normally, without the auto-script over-writing the command, the revert-to-stock will overwrite your loaded recovery... u can watch it happen, mine kept saying ' installing update ', when i knew i was completely disconnected... after a ton of searching/reading/experimenting, i finally figured it out... i loaded flashify, let it download and install twrp, and then IMMEDIATELY WENT STRAIGHT TO RECOVERY, and watched the twrp auto-script overwrite the commands... and then twrp came up and i am good to go... if i had went straight to recovery after odin-flashing twrp the other day i could already have been done...
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mlongue1:
... going to load noterized this weekend...
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] airplane_guy:
Taking out the auto-reboot in Odin worked. Thank you.

And yeah, it jumped me. Mine was fresh out of the box. Sitting on my coffee table downloading apps and I saw it reboot...

I didn't there were any OE1 compatible roms out. Granted, I haven't dug too deep into them yet, but I thought OB7 was the one and only for now.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EpicBarbecue:

CmRemix is also a cool rom if you want CM on OE1.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] airplane_guy:
I did that originally and soft bricked the phone... No system, no recovery, it would try and kick to bootloader. I Odin'd CFAR again and it at least got the system back. That's why I posted here. I've never had such a problem with it. I dunno. New phone, New problems.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mlongue1:
yeah, i originally soft-bricked mine also, odin'd the twrp tar and did not know i had to boot straight to recovery... THAT scared me damn near senseless, phone re-booted after odin-ing twrp and froze at the Download screen, not recovery... eventually i figured out that the recovery process had not completed... so i did it again, this time using flashify (had to do it all directly by phone, did not have laptop with me), and told flashify to reboot to recovery, and this time i let the scripting process finish, u can watch it in the top left corner of screen, and when it finished, twrp came up... BIG relief... and theni told twrp to reboot system, and the phone came up to the phone desktop, just like it was 2 days earlier acting like it never had a problem in the world... and now i am on Noterized, and it IS quick and snappy!!... the newer versions of twrp have the scripting process built in, but it has to be given the chance to run, or the stock rom will overwrite your just-installed with the original stock recovery, you can watch it overwrite also, you phone willl stop EVERYTHING and say ' Installing Updates ' ... and thrn it will boot to desktop or whatever and u wil be on stock recovery...

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sasank360:
What repair shop is that ? Is it Samsung official service center ?

Considering the number of times your phone put you in trouble,

I suspect something wrong with your PC. Because all of us have at

some point messed up their phones and we just flash the sammobile

firmware to restore our devices to full functionality.

But that is not the case with your phone.

Speaking of company rom, i think it has the 4 file firmware.

Meaning it has PDA file (with system), BOOT(kernel),

Bootloader,BL and CSC files. Maybe he is using a pit file that works with

kitkat bootloaders.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] znayver:
tnx my friend for your help this is not a probleme with my pc because the repair shop cant flash like me this is not a samsung repair shop but a repair shop have experience its a big center repaire.can you post for me a rom kitkat with 4 files pda csc boot and pit file
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sasank360:
We do not yet have a 4 file kitkat firmware. We also do not have a pit file that works with knox 2 bootloader.

You can ask the repair shop guy for the firmware. Maybe he will give those files for some price.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RuffBuster:

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RuffBuster:
Have you tried using kies again? Just wondering if your phone will connect thru that and maybe you could update your software thru this. ...and then maybe your could try changing firmware with Odin afterwards? ? Only an idea. I'm not an expert just a phone user like yourself.

I'm wondering if the shop you went to used something like a jtag which can restore phones directly thru chips instead of the normal Odin way we use. I'm wondering how the shop owner got his hands on a "company" rom. ...

A final solution maybe to take your phone to Samsung themselves to flash it back to its original state.

....that or sell the phone and buy another one to replace it. Might work out cheaper than sending it to Samsung because I have a feeling your not under warranty?

Hi guys. I have bricked my phone, I've been usin cm12 and once I rebooted and it was bricked.

It just boots in bootloader with the next code:

I've tried to follow this guide to restore firmware to unbrick it but I can´t and I'm sure that I'm using a compatible firmware (for XT1511).

I have the following problems:

then

mfastboot flash partition gpt.bin

returns

(bootloader) Flashing primary GPT image...

(bootloader) Failed to program partition table

So everything else fail to flash.

There's another way to unbrick my phone, shoul I try a different firmware?

[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] puertagustavo99:
That's strange. If you have the bootloader unlocked you should be able to flash. Try another firmware, make sure it is your phone's original one. I guess you should make a total wipe before you flash. Make a backup in TWRP, and wipe everything.
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scriptacus:
I was having the exact same issue. All of the commands were failing with "remote failure". At some point (like, an hour ago) I did "mfastboot erase modemst1" and it worked. After that all other commands started working and I was able to restore my phone. I'm not sure what exactly made it work, but I'd say try erasing/flashing various things... I've had been trying for a few hours over quite a few days.

[Moto X Q&A] markd89:
Hi All,

I currently have an XT1053 on Lycamobile (T-Mobile MVNO). I rooted it when I got it, have a custom recovery, ROM, xposed framework, XPrivacy, titanium backup. It's been 1.5 years so I'm rusty on how I did it before.

I'd like to move to Verizon pre-paid so I'm looking to buy a used phone. I want to end up with the same capabilities - root, custom ROM, etc.

I'm thinking I should get a Dev edition Verizon Moto-X so that I can get the unlock code from Motorola. In order to reduce chances of issues/bricking, is there are particular version of Android the phone should already have? Anything else I should be looking for?

Thanks,

Mark
[Moto X Q&A] markd89:
From what I have been able to find by looking at a bunch of threads, it looks like I need to look for a Developer phone with Android 4.4.2.

What else am I maybe missing?

Thanks,

Mark
[Moto X Q&A] raddacle:
For the Dev Edition it doesn't matter what version you're on, you can root no matter what.
[Moto X Q&A] imnuts:
The only reason you would need 4.4.2 for easy unlocking is if you were on a non-developer edition phone and were using Sunshine. Dev editions can be unlocked, flashed, and rooted quite easily. Non-developer editions though, you want to be on an earlier release of Android, although there is a root method for 4.4.4 now, so you may still be able to unlock the bootloader.
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
Unlocking the bootloader is needed to run a custom rom, custom recovery, etc. and to ensure the ability to root no matter what ROM is on your phone.

Stick with a Developer Edition XT11060 for Verizon. You can get the bootloader unlock code directly from Motorola, for free.

If you get a RETAIL or Moto Maker variant, so long as the phone was never updated to 4.4.4 or higher, you can use Sunshine to unlock its bootloader. BUT Sunshine relies on exploiting a vulnerability to unlock the bootloader. There has been some question on if the vulnerability will be patched in Lollipop and could that pose any issues for those who used Sunshine to unlock. Will it re-lock them or will the unlocked status survive, etc? I have not seen a definitive answer.

While there is a ROOT method for a certain 4.4.4 build for non-Dev Verizon XT1060, that wont allow you to flash a custom rom or recovery, and it doesn't turn off write protection so there are some limits.
[Moto X Q&A] markd89:
Thanks Gents, very helpful.

Is there any downside to getting a Moto X Developer that is already rooted? I'd still be able to contact Motorola for the unlock if I needed it again, right?

Thanks,

Mark
[Moto X Q&A] cdmoore74:
Thanks for bringing this up OP. I have a Verizon Note 4 and quite frankly I'm tired of the size and it's the longest I've been without root. Not to mention the lag with the TouchWiz lollipop build is driving me crazy. I now want a smaller (sorry Nexus 6) bootloader unlocked rootable android phone. After getting a pre-paid moto g to play around with I'm digging the smaller size and the resolution is more than acceptable. The Moto G should be even better.

I initially looked at the 2014 X but Verizon never released a developer model. My only hesitation to the 2013 is Android M. Is that coming to the 2013 X? And do people here have experience buying refurbished 2013 developer Xs from ebay. Pretty cheap around $110 to $150.
[Moto X Q&A] markd89:
To clarify - if I get phone that's already unlocked because the previous owner got the code from Motorola, would I be able to contact Motorola in the future for the unlock code if I needed to re-unlock the phone or do they only give that out once?

Thanks much,

Mark
[Moto X Q&A] Saythis:
Developer editions come SIM Unlocked to begin with.
[Moto X Q&A] markd89:
OK, I was under the impression that they come bootloader locked so that I would need an unlock to achieve root. Am I mistaken?
