If you sweat enough it will cause the water damage stickers to change color. Warranty through Tmobile would have denied you as well. The only difference is Tmobile would have been more of a pain because you would have already been on your refurb for three weeks before you found out your claim was denied. LGSilva how much do you need to pay to use your warranty? Because they do cover water damage and I'm just wondering what the deductible is.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] masri1987:
The liquid sticker is unreliable. When i worked at verizon for 10.5 years with revenue assurance and device testing during the alltel merger verizon stopped using the LDI sticker because it turns for sometimes no reason.

Samsung should be able to provide proof of corrosion or other physical evidence other than the LDI

Even apple made statement regarding the falsehoods of the LDI. http://gizmodo.com/5747878/triggered-water-damage-indicator-doesnt-rule-out-replacement-iphones

Taking your phone into the bathroom when you shower can also trip the void stick. So be careful
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] masri1987:
we as consumers need to fight this fraudulent method of determining liquid damage, the manufacturers are so lazy that they cannot identify corrosion and prove it? Somehow we should bend over to their corporate slob laziness?

No thanks. Fight back, and if Samsung isn't gonna do anything about it climb the ladder, their US HQ is in TX.

Here in canada, I had broken my note 3 screen within a week of release, rooted and everything, they fixed screen without issue, for free. Same thing happened with my note 4, exact same thing. Samsung is awesome, at least here in canada.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] Brittany_Menton:
Not to be mean or anything, but if you actually bought a warranty from another company that covered full accidental damage you wouldn't have ran into this $700 expense that cannot be reimbursed. Never rely on manufacturer warranties.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] DenverTmobile:
Bought a Tmobile Note 3 for my son from Tmobile with the warranty. The Note 3 was under warranty. It wouldn't power on unless it was plugged in. Unplug it and it powered down. Battery at 100%.

My son was working on a ship overseas and had to buy a new phone.

Called Tmobile - took 3.5 hours (an entire afternoon) to get them to set up a warranty return. They just couldn't coordinate at the office to make it happen.

Eventually they got it right and sent a phone to my local Tmobile store to exchange.

The manager had a light and showed me a tiny crack in one of the corners.

He said, if I send this in, T-mobile will charge you $175 to repair the crack.

Well, a brand-new Note 3 is only $125 on Ebay or other places.

I checked with several phone repair places. They explained to me that the Samsung Note 3 had a crazy front case that Samsung tried once and dropped.

So,, my Samsung Note 2 or the Samsung Note 4 would only cost around $40 to repair But a Note 3 is $250.

The phone works - it just won't stay powered unless it is plugged in. It's not because of the tiny crack on the front.

But, the warranty will charge me much more than a brand-new phone if I try to use the Tmobile warranty!

I have 9 more payments of $10 a month to pay off a Tmobile phone that worked for 90 days.

Tmobile warranty is horrible! I have been on Tmobile since 1999. I will drop Tmobile on a family plan the moment there is a better deal.

I have to use wireless in my home in the middle of Denver. Tmobile bars are zero! Tmobile sent a home booster. It helps get one bar then no bars.

Tmobile like many other companies just doesn't care.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] Midnightstar3034:
I looked this up on Google to see if anyone is having the same issues as i am right now and everything you said is exactly what i am going through!! My phone screen isn't working and sent it to Samsung under warranty their saying i owe them $362.00 because it isn't under warranty it is liquid damage by shipping it to them. Umm no i said you all are making up excuses so i pay you and i said i am not paying you it is under warranty!! I am not sure if i am getting my phone back now as of right now using my old phone that won't let me make calls at all ugh how annoying should of just went to a iPhone if i knew this. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Semantics really.

The definition of unconscious obviously makes it impossible to be aware of it while it is happening. That's like saying "you cannot see during the time that you are blind."

Really it would be more about what conciousness really is, where it came from, and what happens before and after you die, but your actual quote I guess implies that there is no such thing as true unconsciousness, which point I would agree with.
[LG G Flex 2] kmoch333:
Does anybody else have a rather noticable grainy screen? It looks like a layer between the diodes and the front glass. Its as if I was looking on the screen with some photoshop grainy effect. Or better, if you put a very thin paper in between the diodes and the front glass. It gets significanty better with brightness turned up to max. But it doesnt go away completely. Its most pronounced with darker colours. Black is fine though, no mura effect there.

Its really annoying to look at. Is it normal? I thought LG supposedly fixed this issue which was very common on the original Flex.

I only saw a grainy screen when I turned the brightness way way down below the normal with Lux brightness control.

Hello all....

I am having a big problem with my android tablet. This has happened 2 times now.

I plugged in my android tablet into my computer, and as soon as a i plug it in, apps start crashing, including the android launcher. I don't why this is happening. I've had to factory reset my android because of this problem i do not feel like factory resetting again. I luckily have backups(Thanks to titanium backup). My android is Rooted, but i don't think its part of the problem. Also, com.google.process.gapps CONSTANTLY Crashes, which is super annoying.

I really need help with this, because I'm at the point where I don't know what to do anymore.

Factory reset again,restore with titanium backup...

I don' think so, i plug this in to another computer and it doesn't make my tablet crash apps.

Well I factory reset my tablet ONCE again before I saw this, restored apps with a titanium backup accidentally restoring a system app, BAM! My idiocy made my tablet in a boot loop. After that I tried pushing and hold the reset button on my tablet a few times, at turn on, the tablet just hangs at the splash screen.... I probably will have to get a new tablet, which I wont do, since I can't trust myself anymore to keep the tablet alive for at least a year:crying:.

unable to mount /data

No idea what happened.

Woke up today.. phone seemed off .. tried to charge and reboot and could not.

Got into recovery, and tried to wipe caches etc.. could not..

This is the message I get in logs from TWRP.

I read in another forum about going into the console and typing a manual command to reformat the partition.

I have no idea if that command would be the same here..

ANYONE??? please?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] creepyncrawly:
You didn't post the command, but just from common knowledge I'd say the Linux command would be the same, but the partition you need to format might be/probably is named differently on this phone.

Incidentally, there is always the possibility of partial or full emmc failure. Your description of the symptoms sound consistent with hardware failure, so I wouldn't rule out that possibility.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] SchusterIX:
I just had the same thing happen. Can't find the command to manually reformat as well. My external SD card was wiped as well, apparently. Or it won't read it. TWRP also says internal storage is 0 mb.
[Meizu MX] liovag:
Hello,

I have order Meizu m1 note 32 gb version blue color from fastcardtech.com and i have received a couple of days ago. Today i notice that in storage menu, the file system holds 17.13GB

The phone is unrooted.

How is this possible, I am very disappointed, and frustrated.

This is a big thing. I have pay for 32GB version and i suspect that they fraud me.

Also i have connect the phone via usb to my pc and i saw that the total size is only 11,9GB and not 32.

Also i have install to the phone the ES File Explorer to check the storage capacity and i saw that the phone have 11.94 GB Total capacity and not 32 i suspect that you have change something to the phone software. to look 32gb but actually is only 16GB version. This is fraud.

I have make factory reset with erasing data and upgrade the system but remains the same. :/

Please give me your advice.

Thanks for your feedback.

As we checked, this phone(IMEI:866184024006707) is the 32G version phone.

I have the exact same issue with the Meizu MX4 Pro 32 gb. I noticed the system takes up 17.36 Gb of space. I plugged this into my pc and it also states it has a total of 11.7 gb. (I would post an image but I can't seem to as I'm a new user.)

This was also purchased through a third party seller, however I believe they are an authorized Meizu product seller. If there's any more information on this that would be greatly appreciated.
[Meizu MX] abraxaz120:
I have basically the same problem with a Note 2, it is supposed to have 16GB, but every time I copy a file it uses twice the space, I used X-plore to map the storage and found out that it makes a copy inside /storage/emulated/0 and /storage/emulated/legacy. I have not rooted it yet so there is not much left I could try so far.
[Meizu MX] MeizuOwner:
IMEI/SN non match in system

Hi,

I just went into the information in my phone as well, to reconfirm my own imei and SN within the phone, and it's not matching the box... It doesn't register a SN, and my IMEI is a made up sequence of numbers...

I'm growing a sneaking suspicion that there are people repackaging fake phones with fake storage in real boxes and selling the originals without real boxes.... that would also explain the false storage specs as well....

I hope someone else has figured out a reasonable solution, however I am quite certain that I won't be hearing back from the seller...

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonnibravo:
As far as I know in order to flash a rom needs changes to bootloader as soon as you touch the bootloader it trips knox. You can only root without tripping knox
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dwarfer66:
I had rooted via Pingpong root fine (no knox tripped) and then downloaded Echoe rom with standard kernel after being told that it would not trip knox (it worked for that guy) but it tripped knox anyway. So I though well, why not go all the way.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mischala:
Ping Pong root uses an exploit in the 5.0.2 Stock rom to get root access, without flashing.

Anytime the bootloader partition gets written to, the Knox counter gets incremented.

Flashing with Flashfire will trip Knox.

I do not believe there is a way to flash without accessing the Bootloader.

Hello again,

I have a very special problem now ;)

I own a "prototype" of the Z3 (no, don't ask where it is from, it just found the way to me).

The device ro.build.device string is "leo" for my device.

So the updater script in the zip gives me an assertion (see screenshot)

[IMG="Assertion for "leo""]https://imageshack.com/i/p50hLNLxj[/IMG]

Can you please update the "updater-script", so the it also checks for "leo" as well?

So good night for now

Rom works well, using it as a daily driver. Thanks for sharing.

I noticed an annoying bug... it occurs when the open with dialog comes up that allows you to choose output application, or to record an app as the default. When that dialog comes up, it is underneath the nav keys, which makes it impossible to select the two options always and just once.

"Replacing updater-script

When you download ROM's, you must change updater-script. You can do this in android or in windows.

Open ROM.zip go to \META-INF\com\google\android and replace updater-script with mine."

Advice: Remove the entire assert line. Rezip and flash. That's what i did and it worked.

I also couldn't get it to work from stock 4.4 and needed to flash stock rooted 5.1 first.

I first had to change the updater-script, I changed the 2 instances of 6602 to leo. Then using ES file commander extracted and flashed the boot.img using rashr. Then reboot to recovery and flashed paranoid successfully.
