you simply follow instructions in op..

if the files are in .zip format you would use the flash zip option...

roms are typically pre rooted so you never need to mess with everoot stuff..

this isnt an ota update it is an actual rom that is lightly debloated.. id read op and thread very carefully when updating anything beyond oe2...

---------- Post added at 08:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:19 AM ----------

to add, essentially updating modem to of1 you will not be able to go to an older modem and its tricky at that point to odin back down to oe2/oc3... if youre not very savvy you might end up being stuck on something and lose root as i read some ended up doing this in this thread
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] smithilberry:
Yes, I saw that too however according to the op he made it seem like it was no big deal to have a of1 modem and that you would otherwise still be able to downgrade to oc3/oe2. Either way, I'm not even sure why I would ever want to downgrade anyway.

The flash_me isn't a zip so I guess it's safe to assume you use "flash firmware". And the op never mentioned an order. He simply said flash together. I wasn't sure if the order mattered.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] smithilberry:
I found a more detailed guide that I will follow tomorrow. Here's a link if anyone is interested:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] elliwigy:
To be clear, the flash me package contains OF1 Modem Only.. the rom.zip contains the OF1 system..

The kernel/BL are not included in either..

The modem is not in the rom.zip either.

This ROM simply puts your device on OF1 system/modem but also running on OE2 kernel/BL.. it is not a full OF1 update..

You can downgrade system to OE2/OC3 because its only a partial upgrade.

You cannot however downgrade the modem since it has been upgraded to OF1.

This means a full stock OE2 odin tar will not work for downgrade unless you remove the OF1 modem from the tar file.

If you read early posts, some ended up losing root when trying to downgrade because they are not familiar with all this and hooked it up to verizons repair tool and it put them on latest os.

The guide you read is simply detailed instructions but you essentially pop both files into FF and flash it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] smithilberry:
Yes, this did make everything very clear.... This was my impression of everything, but I wanted to ask in order to be sure... I appreciate your help!

How can I switch from deodex to odex version?

Since xposed is unavailable, sadly, I do not have a reason to have the deodex version... How can I switch to the odex since that would apparently be more stable
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] kookmasteraj:
I had to ODIN, went back to OE2 and flashed the package so now I have a stock OE2 with the OF1 Radio but ping-pong is not working and Kingroot will not work either. I am going to attempt ODIN down to OC3 to test ping-pong

*edit* *Update:

As previously stated, when I had to ODIN to OE2 ping pong root was not working for me. However, ODIN to OC3 and the OF1 radio works and using Ping Pong I got root back.

TDLR: If you want root, ODIN to OC3 and Ping Pong, ODIN OE2 did not work for me

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
Hello guys.

I am working on GPE 5.1 scrubber based rom with OEM Sony futures.

The problem is, I can't make it flashable.

Things I've tried:

Extracting system img and flashing as folder.

ifelse(is_mounted("/system"), unmount("/system"));
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "/system", "");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");

Creating new system.img, but it became smaller.

After flashing this my partition table got wrecked.

After experimenting whole night , I realized that system.img have emply blocks inside, so I created new img with exact same amount of blocks.

So, I tried this , and this and this

Result is the same. Bootloop. And recovery is not working. I spend like 20 hours already trying to figure it out. :eek:

P.S. Never mind, I made it working.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonke11:
Hello guys. I just wonder is there any solution for fixing GPS in CM ROMs? Because i read that we need to flash stock rom, set gps at high accurarry and then flash CM. I think its enough to write gps.conf file from stock rom to cm based (if yes, can anyone upload it here, because i tried from my brothers Z3, but still not working)? Or its other way to fix it?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] brobinson2102:
I bought the Edge two months ago. Gave it a spin, got back from a canoe trip on the Buffalo River and exchanged it for the Active on the day the Active dropped.

So now I've had a month with each device.

Gotta say, as sexy as the Edge is... it's just too delicate. I felt like I might crack the screen if I stared at it hard enough.

The "Edge" features were cool but not so killer that I had to have them, kinda kitchy at best.

The Edge is gorgeous so putting it into a case was a crime.

Performance, camera, all that... awesome.

Memory leak issue caused the phone to be laggy but everyone's had that issue.

Rooting and Greenifying it took care of that.

Additionally, holding the Edge sans case in my hand, the edges are perceived as "sharp", just couldn't get used to the thin-ness (I know, weird).

The Active is light but solid in the hand.

The case (dark blue camo) has grown on me.

Having had the previous versions of the Galaxy, the buttons are fine and I do appreciate the "Active" button for short and long press access to key apps. Although, sometimes it triggers while in my pocket and starts my music app.

Performance is rock solid, quick and and since the OF3 update last week, not having the memory issues like before. I don't think this is completely resolved but it does seem much more responsive and not lagging after a few days of use.

It's water-resistant and that comes in real handy - I've now used it when I'm running (covered in sweat), trout fishing (slimy hands) or canoeing (splashed with water while taking photos!) without any concerns or issues.

Camera is so awesome, fast and responsive unlike any of the Galaxy S predecessors.

And the selfie cam's higher resolution is appreciated.

I do have the issue with the case "clicking" on the edges.

Now, if we can just get root, this will be as perfect a phone as you can get.

My two cents. Anyone else tried them both?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] anneoneamouse:
Package disabler is a pretty good compromise for not having root. Allows you to disable pretty much anything, no root required.AoN
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Craleb:
I have tried both. And I agree the s6 edge is so sexy (especially in platinum) I do miss the fingerprint reader and the bottom facing speaker. BUT IMO the active is so much better. I got the all black version (the other colors were a bit too much for me even after owning the platinum s6 edge lol) the active feels so sturdy in the hand and isn't too bad looking. I love love love the water resistance, I've already taken a shower with it lol. I've still got the edge but found out it was financed so I'm working on getting my money back now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] brobinson2102:
Package Disabler from OSPolice - waaaay cool my friend, thank you for suggesting.

The few items I manually deleted plus the latest update and this big battery is giving me fantastic battery life.

I just ran Package Disabler and selected "all bloatware" and disabled 87 apps. Then I re-enableed the four or five apps I actually use.

Looking forward to even better results.

Thanks! :o
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] brobinson2102:
I have the blue came. The dark color is sharp and you cannot really see the camo until you hold it up close.

Listening to podcasts in a steamy shower toasted my first galaxy III. This Active handles it with no problem.

And I've dropped this thing a half do, enjoy times where I'm sure an earlier version or an uncased Edge would have show damage.

I'm officially an Active fan!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] anneoneamouse:
Just do not disable the Samsung account manager.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] brobinson2102:
I see a Samsung Account. Is that the one? What does it do? I'm not using the Samsung account, I don't think. I do have s-health on so maybe I need that. Appreciate your input!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] anneoneamouse:
Yes that's the one, it allows access to all the Samsung content (theme store, Samsung app store). If you disable it, the only way to reactivate it is to factory reset the phone.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Whiteouttonight:
I've had the same "clicking" issue on my second S6 Active just below the volume button. Has anyone else had this happen or know any information about what is causing it. I originally assumed it was my tempered glass protector causing it. As if I had installed it to tightly butted against that side and was somehow bowing the side bezel. But this seems rather unlikely. Either way I only notice it when not using one of my protective cases which is usually where it stays.

---------- Post added at 05:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:11 AM ----------

Ah forgot to note that this "case clicking" dosent seem to be a sign of a loose body for the fact that my phone is under water daily and has had 0 issues with water causing any LASTING issues.

However I do have the phone constantly think it's docking for about 30min after being submerged until all moisture has been blown out and/or evaporated from the usb port. Also the speaker phone speaker really sucked for about 1hr after being submerged all day off and on at a Six Flags Hurricane Harbor Waterpark all day. Found this out when I had an hour and a half emergency conference call while with the family at the waterpark. As I constantly kept changing back and forth between the ear speaker and the speaker phone... blowing and trying to shake the moisture out of the rear speaker it slowly got clearer and clearer as the call went on. All this was resolved fully within an hour or so and IMHO was am extreme use situation so I figured it would have that type of outcome so this should most likely not be a common issue. Still the best device I've ever owned!

HI its me again..

on my WM5 dopod OS I m facing a problem...

When ever after a soft reset immediately when i press the windows menu key it delays opening by around 2-3sec...

but after doing it once it opens immediately the next time i press the menu key...

also i m facing similar problem with text-input selector (one we get while writing a message/email )selecting the t9/keyboard/HRR etc..

While i tap the inputchanging key in middel the menu is delayed here also by 2-3sec its really irritaring me..cause this happens evertime ...even after soft reset.

just for your info i have loaded resco fullscreen keyboard,resco keyboard apart from default input methods of phone pad,hand writing rec.etc...

Will this causing the menu to pop-up delayed by 3sec or so....

thnkz
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] burnes:
The first time that you open the start menu, the device needs to read the Start Menu listing. When you open the Start Menu after this, the files have been cached in memory and therefore the menu appears instantly. There isn't really a way around this and to be honest, I don't see a problem.

As for the input method list, I have the same problem and I am not sure why this happens. Maybe someone could clear-up as to whether it performs some kind of re-enumeration or integrity check for the input methods when the menu is opened, but this certainly has nothing to do with Resco Full-Screen keyboard.

No, because restoring TA also locks the bootloader. (TA contains the BL flag, and is signed, so cannot change that independently.)

[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Akashprakash93:
Okay so I don’t know whether problem is actually with the permissions so I’ll just post the details below.

My phone is rooted and I have TWRP.

I had a lot of apps on my phone and it was getting slow. So I decided to factory reset it. I went to the settings and factory reset the phone. While rebooting, the TWRP screen flashed and the phone reboot. But some of the folders in the internal storage were deleted. The Camera and WhatsApp images folders were still there. The Downloads and Bluetooth folders were deleted. I use Quick Pic gallery app. I could see the Camera and WhatsApp images via Quick Pic. But when I navigated to that particular folder using a file manager, the folders were empty. Even when I connected the phone to my PC using a data cable, the camera folder was empty. I know the files are there because I could see the size of the internal storage. When I open Quick Pic, I get a message “not an error (code 0): could not open database in read/write mode“. I can’t copy any files to the internal storage also. When I tried to copy a song to the ringtones folder in internal storage, the copy failed with the message, “Open Failed: EACCESS (Permission denied)”.

So I did some research and thought that the problem was with the internal storage permission. So I went to TWRP and clicked on “Fix Permissions”. The phone got stuck at the moto boot animation. So I downloaded the stock ROM and flashed it. The phone boots now but the old problem is still there. Apps keeps force closing. Whenever I take a pic, I get a message saying the gallery app has stopped. Instagram and Smart Voice Recorder keeps force closing as soon as I open them.

I don’t know what to do. Please help me. If there’s any other info that I need to provide, please let me know.

Thanks a lot!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CidiRome:
Hi.

When I try to open the camera the flash light flashed about 5 times and I get Camera Failure.

To start I have to tell the story from the beginning:

My initial problem with this phone was that the audio out from the 3.5mm plug was not good, sound would only be heard at maximum level and there were digital gaps/noise.

To start I replaced the part where the 3.5mm plug was integrated but the results were the same with the new one.

In the process I changed the FW always using original roms from samsung-updates, the audio problem persisted.

Then I replaced the Audio Chip WM1811AE and the audio problem was solved.

After this, while testing the phone I noticed this camera problem.

I know that before I started repairing this sound problem the camera was working, but I don't know is the problem started because of the audio chip replacement or the FW change.

Any Ideas?

This is a Vodafone PT phone and I'm now downloading older FW files to test but the this downloads are very slow.

Best Regards.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CidiRome:
Update:

Today I tried a new camera to conclude that the problem don't come from the camera itself, it must be something around it.

I will try to remove the sound chip a solder it again, maybe there is some short in some balls in the grid that is causing some king of problem in the data/address bus that affects the camera...

Any ideas before I tray this?

Best Regards.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Denis_Kh:
Hey there!

This is actually exactly what I encountered! I had messed up audio coming from speakers and during calls. Then I had the audio IC replaced which solved the audio problem. Unfortunately the camera stopped working after that. I reflashed stock firmwares, but it didn't help. Btw, selfie camera works fine in 3rd party apps. The LED Flash (torch) doesn't work.

I found out that the audio IC (which I got replaced by shady repair guys) is placed right above the Camera IC on the other side of the PCB. So It's pretty easy to mess up when replacing the audio circuit. And sure enough after some inspecting, I saw flux burn marks around the camera IC. So I'm almost sure that reworking the camera IC will fix the camera issue. And this is probably what happened to your phone also. For some reason I stopped at that point, and my camera is still yet to be fixed.

So have you had any progress with the camera since?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] kanyewesticles:
Hi,

I'm new to these forums, so sorry in advance. I was given a Samsung Galaxy Player 5.0 model number YP-G70. This is the US version. The phone turns on, and I am able to get it boot up. However, once I get to the "Sweep glass to unlock" screen and use my finger to unlock it, all that show is the top status bar that displays the time, and then the rest is black. I am able to sweep down from the top status bar which will show the all the wi-fi and Bluetooth buttons as well as the ongoing events, but nothing else.

So far I have tried booting into Android system recovery and wiped the cache partition and wiped the data/factory reset. After I reset the phone each time, I am first greeted with a message that says "Sorry, the application setup wizard (process com.android.setupwizard) has stopped unexpectedly. Try again"

I am able to get into download mode. I have tried using Odin, oneclickunbrick, and kies but both programs do not recognize the phone both in download mode and at the unlock screen in regular boot mode.

If anyone can give me some guidance, I'd really appreciate it. This is driving me nuts.

Right.

So, I was opening youtube on the last version of CM 12.1. No xposed, stock kernel, XT1068 model, when all of a sudden the phone stopped working.

Youtube wasn't opening. The phone was stuck on the home screen, all I could do was just press the home/back/recent buttons. Even long pressing power button to reboot would just take me to the power menu but Wouldn't allow me to do anything.

So in the end I long pressed the power menu to force reboot the phone aaaand... stuck on the boot logo. Not on the bootanimation, on the Motorola Bootlogo.

Managed to get to fastboot mode, tried to go to recovery, but after the twrp splash screen It would reboot to the splash screen again.

So i decided to mfastboot the original firmware. Who knows? maybe something got corrupted on cm.

Now, mfastboot is giving me weird errors.

flash partition gpt.bin gives (bootloader) Preflash validation failed

flash motoboot motoboot.bin gives FAILED (data transfer failure (Unknown error))

flash boot boot.img freezes everything and i need to reboot it to try and get to fastboot again.

Anybody knows what I should do? I'm kinda desperate here...

Thanks in advance. Peace.

(by the way, latest motorola drivers, just so you know...)

"hab check failed for primary_gpt

Failed to verify hab image primary_gpt"
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] echow2001:
Hope I can help

Are you flashing a gpt.bin from a previous android version? You cannot downgrade gpt.bin or motoboot.bin so the error is normal. From what firmware version is the boot.img you are flashing from? Try downloading this twrp recovery img from here https://dl.twrp.me/titan and

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

or

mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Then you can try flashing any rom like this AOSP one http://xdaforums.com/moto-g-2014/development/rom-android-source-project-t3123109
