[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] spankmatic22:
Back when I had my att s4 we could only use safe strap to mod our phones to avoid bricking. On this new edge device how is the ease of modding? For sure the warranty would be void but can custom recoveries and kernels be flashed at will or is ma bell harshing our buzz still?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] spankmatic22:
Seems like from what I have read on the forum that the only problem is warranty issues? Anyone tried rooting and installing a custom recovery?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Globalrebel:
BL is completely locked, so no ability to flash custom recovery at all. We can get root, but no CWM or TWRP for us until someone cracks the BL. . . . which . . . probably will never happen. :(

Use this rom since 2 days, (sorry, got it from your androidfilehost account).

Beside the bugs it works rly great! First LP Rom i want to use as daily :)

Bugs i found:

- theres no powermenu, the phone goes imidiatly off. (fixed it with apm+)

- no CM-Themer (pls put in :))

- your recovery doesn't work, only get a destroyd picture and phone freeze (fixed it with fota twrp)
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] optimumpro:
You are confusing this rom, which is an unofficial build with the official one posted a few days ago. My build was posted just an hour ago. None of those bugs are present in my build: There is CM themer, there is power menu including advanced boot and there is a working TWRP in boot image. :)

Replacing resurrection remixed? What's the difference between 2? If this is superset of RR I'll switch over
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] optimumpro:
Not replacing anything. RR is well supported. Tesla is a different rom. It has support for Slimrom's layers as well as many other features. I like it more than RR, but for you the only way to find out is to try it...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] wis3m0nkey:
OK so I'll go to Tesla and use encryption similar to RR.

Is that correct?

Yes. All hardened features are there...

[General Questions and Answers] sac02:
I've tried to use a couple apps to disable certain services on my phone - but they have not worked. (I have tried DisableService and MyAndroidTools)

When I try to use those apps, the SuperSU log gives the following output:

pm disable com.google.android.gms/com.google.android.gms.wearable.service.WearableService

exit
Error: Could not access the Package Manager. Is the system running?

I'm still trying to figure out what the "Package Manager" is, and why it seems to be missing/not running on my device.

Is the Package Manager part of the ROM, or the kernel, or what?

For reference, I have an AT&T SGS4, running a custom Lollipop ROM (GoldenEye53)

Thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] flash-:
Package Manager it is the service which can install an apk on your phone (it's like an apk reader if you know what i mean)

but about the error i don't know why this message come to you ...but don't try to stop necessary services !!it could brick your ROM my friend :)
[General Questions and Answers] sac02:
Hmm, so if I can install an apk (I definitely can) then that should be evidence that I have functioning Package Manager?

So I wonder what the issue is with these apps... or my phone...

Also, I am going to be very very careful with disabling services. I only plan to disable services that are:

1. Affecting my phone negatively (waking and looking for wearable devices that I do not use would be an example), and

2. Are confirmed OK to disable based on research. I will not disable anything I am not certain is safe.

Thanks for your help.
[General Questions and Answers] Mjduddin:
I've got the same setup as you with the phone, rom, app, and error message. I haven't figured out what the problem is yet.
[General Questions and Answers] CorynMidori:
I know you said you tried a couple apps, but maybe try using the Xposed module Amplify? That is, if you have the Xposed Framework installed.

Try killing system_server first then run your command. It might work. Here's how to do

su -c pkill system_server

It will fast-reboot your phone, Then run your command :)
[General Questions and Answers] Suncatcher16:
It doesn't recognize this command

root@XXXXX:/ # su -c pkill system_server
tmp-mksh: pkill: not found

If I try kill it requires process number, not name

127|root@XXXXX:/ # kill system_server
tmp-mksh: kill: system_server: arguments must be jobs or process IDs
[General Questions and Answers] firedoge:
kill doesn't take process names, it takes process IDs

simply use

su
ps|grep system_server

you will see the system_server process with an ID, 3 to 5 digit numbers like 16458

then "kill 16458"

and pkill isn't recognized probably because of busybox (installs bunch of useful command tools on your system), install an busybox installer from playstore, install busybox then try again.
[General Questions and Answers] Suncatcher16:
No, I have bysybox. Maybe this command exists only in Pro-version?

Nevertheless, I already solved the problem by rerooting with another su binary.
[General Questions and Answers] firedoge:
good to hear that :)
[Galaxy S6 General] solitarymonkey:
I dont know if this has been mentioned before, but i think it is quite important and could be helpful to many people.

The other week I attempted to make a modification to what is displayed at boot and screwed up somewhere causing my device to become somewhat bricked. Literally the only thing I could boot into was Download mode. Recovery mode was gone. Normal boot was gone. Just black screens and no response.

To fix this, I attempted to reflash the BTU firmware via Odin. Nada. Exactly the same. I was in a genuine panic.

Then I thought about Smart Switch on my PC. That has an emergency restore feature, I'll try that. Hallelujah!! It worked! But only because of a precaution I had previously taken, and this is the reason I am posting.

If you fire up Smart Switch and look and the emergency recovery part, you need to enter your model number (in my case, all in capitals, SM-G920F). After that, you then need your Serial Number. Unhelpfully, Smart Switch "kindly" tells you that it can be found under the battery...... #@$€!!!!! But it can also be found in the Settings -> About Device -> Status menu. Near the bottom.

I STRONGLY suggest that people make a note of this serial number, as it is not on the box or anywhere else I have looked. Previously making a note of that string of digits is the only thing that saved me from being without my phone.

Settings -> About Device -> Status -> Serial Number

Write it down and keep it safe.

By doing so, you can recover your device, partitions and all, to the same branded firmware that came with your phone (probably the most up to date one if it's been updated, but I don't know for sure yet).
[Galaxy S6 General] d3l1:
Thanks for the tip but my g920f has the IMEI and S/N printed on its back.

[Galaxy S6 General] solitarymonkey:
You know what? I've just realised it's on mine too :-p I had to take my protective case off, and use a torch to be able to see it, but it's there.

Damn.. Haha. Never thought to look.

At least it's out in the open for all to know (including recovering from potential partition screw ups).

Cheers!!

--> Dialog for bluetooth file sending progress is still KK.

--> Wave to wake up (I know they removed it therefore its a bug in my eyes)

--> I'm having Wi-Fi issues with not seeing certain routers and connecting, even though its saved and even after a radio cache clear using fastboot.

--> I'm having YouTube video playback issues in the YouTube App, even after I set to use the old AwesomePlayer.

--> I'm having general UI lag and apps hanging.

--> For me boot animation lag is now a norm, even after I updated Moto Boot Services. On KK it was extremely rare.

[Moto X General] _litz:
To trick MDM into seeing the update, put your phone into airplane mode, reboot to recovery, erase cache, reboot normally, then connect to MDM and check for updates.
[Moto X General] stealtheye:
How do i clear cache in stock recovery?
[Moto X General] kenosis:
In stock recovery, you will see an option to clear cache.
[Moto X General] stealtheye:
Only the see the open android with red triangle?

Edit: Got the menu.

Edit 2: This is taking quite a while. Normal?
[Moto X General] _litz:
Yes, it can take 10-20 minutes.
[Moto X General] stealtheye:
Should the cache erasing take a while. Its quite long now.
[Moto X General] stealtheye:
Oh wow ok thanks.
[Moto X General] kenosis:
Yes, Normal. you will see "M" in Green colour circle for a few minutes before it boots
[Moto X General] _litz:
Yeah, beats me why stock recovery takes so long to do something TWRP does in 2 seconds.
[Moto X General] stealtheye:
Nope MDM still says no update.
[Moto X General] stealtheye:
MDM still saying no update. Should I just OTA?
[Moto X General] _litz:
That's very strange ... it SHOULD be detecting the update.

If you can get the FXZ/SBF file from another source then you may as well take the OTA, or just get the full file from elsewhere and use RSD-Lite directly (just like you would have done otherwise).

sometimes you have to unplug/replug your device a few times with MDM ... also if it says "current version : NA" then try enabling USB Development mode, unplugging and replugging.

If everything is working OK, it should say either no update, or update, and then list your device's current version.
[Moto X General] stealtheye:
Yeah it lists device correctly but says no update.

I'll just OTA for now and use the FXZ later if it appears. It may be due to the fact that moto have only allowed OTAs for now.
[Moto X General] stealtheye:
I've downloaded the OTA. But i wasn't rooted and need to be to capture the OTA. Can I flash TWRP and then SU zip without losing the OTA downloaded in cache? Or is there a way to get it without root? I tried the ADB way...not very well but kept on getting access denied when I remounted.

PLEASE ANY HELP!?
[Moto X General] _litz:
I think you're going to have to go to one of the "capture the OTA" specific pages for help on that, but I think you can flash TWRP and grab it from cache directly in TWRP.

Moto X, unfortunately, doesn't support booting TWRP from fastboot.
[Moto X General] stealtheye:
Ya the problem there aren't many of those and helpful ones. Ill just Install it. If i need to wipe I'll just factory reset. I'm sure others in a while will get the file or the FXZ will eventually make its way out. But thanks for your help. Had I known I had to be rooted I would,ve done it before. But i don't want to try now and loose the file in cache. It may clear it when I shutdown or reboot up to install anyway and then I'll also have to remove root if its there to copy. TOO MANY MISSIONS. But thanks bro!
[Moto X General] spkbri:
I have got the OTA file.

The problem is now to upload it somewhere. My home ADSL upload speed is abysmal (no, really, 0.5MegaBit/s is about the standard here) and my work connection is behind a proxy that blocks EVERYTHING.

drive.google is blocked, but docs.google isn't... I'll try to find a workaround.

So, ppl wht needs to be done before flashing ths OTA..??? Like I'm on XT1052 Asia retail(rooted, unlocked, stock ROM, xposed installed), if I try to install this, then should I need to flash to GB 4.4.4 UK ROM via RSD Lite?

or is it okay to flash back to Asia retail 4.4.4 and then upgrade to this OTA.?

Please Suggest.

Thankx :)

[Moto X General] rohitdna:
Yes, gone through the link, its okay that the download link is down, i'm sure you're working on it.

I'm asking that the installation guide didn't mention where I need to revert back to stock recovery to install.?

furthermore It also didn't mention if needed to revert back to stock for those who have TWRP and xposed installed, weathr to revert back to Asia retail or GB(UK) retail..??

[Moto X General] stealtheye:
Oh sorry man didn't see that was in a bit of rush.
[Moto X General] stealtheye:
No directly as there is a pre-update validation to check that the ROM is Retail GB.

What you will have to do is go here and find the 4.4.4 (assuming that is what you currently on) Retail GB full ROM zip and either fastboot or RSD lite flash it. ONLY DO THIS IF YOU ARE 100% SURE THAT THEY ARE THE SAME BUILD AND VERSION AND RADIO ETC.

Upon completing this you will now have a Retail GB model. Now either update OTA on the device itself or download and sideload the OTA update that either I will post in the first post or one that others have linked in previous posts.

Please excuse any typos/errors.

Hit the thanks if you like.

XT1052_RETAIL-GB_4.4.4_KXA21.12-L1.26_56_cid7_CFC_1FF.xml.zip should i download this file and then apply ota?

tried to update on asia retail error occured want 4.4.4 gb version to proceed, now downloading (GB 4.4.4) this file and flash it and then ota lengthy process but do it for 5.1.
[Moto X General] stealtheye:
Yeah I know but worth it. I think...don't know quite yet. But anyway yes do that. You see when you tried to apply the GB update to your asia ROM. The update as pre-validation and fails if the ROM you on is not that exact GB 4.4.4 you're downloading. Thus it would fail like it did for you.
