[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samep:
Here's what I understand as far as recovering with Odin by build:

All these builds NIE, NK2 (KitKat) and first Lollipop (OB7) were downgradeable; you were free to flash in Odin within these builds. Or KIES but not downgrade.

OE1 didn't have a tar, it also locked out the older ones but was compatible with OF5 to flash Odin or KIES to upgrade. Can only go back to OE1 with nandroid backup from OF5. OE1 introduced reactivation lock to prevent flashing over user locked phone as well as preventing the downgrade to escape the feature. Seems dine could recover from a bit loop by flashing CF Auto Root in Odin.

OF5 was released with a supporting tar eventually but it's the same story as OE1. But I'm not sure if CF Auto Root worked to recover boot when looped.

OG5 locks it further. If you don't have a nandroid, recovering from boot loop options may include flashing CWM recovery or a compatible flash that takes you away from OG5 almost entirely. Sacs, Notarized, and CM12 are reportedly working. Reportedly, can't go back to OF5 with Odin and not sure about nandroid, maybe not.

Depending on certain exceptions unclear, Odin and KIES have been reported to work together, flashing stock OB7 ROM, parts of stock tar with Odin with a flash result that won't boot but connecting KIES in recovery and using the emergency recovery method. If KIES doesn't see your phone on recovery, you may try this fix on your Windows PC:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=34864154&postcount=14

I'll add this too: flashing L Speed Mod may fix adb with ADB Insecure in booted mode; ADB Insecure wouldn't be needed in recovery anyway so it works without it. I can report this does work for me with the above MTP fix on OB7.

Was i incorrect in my method of getting him back on his feet? I should suggest CWM instead of TWRP? Now im confused.

The last thing i want to do is tell someone the wrong procedure, only causing more frustration. I thought i read 'Twrp, Install and Viola!' from many users in the other thread.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samep:
I think your suggestion is consistent with what we're learning as you gave it. It seems to be evolving with trial and error. The CWM suggestion came from a single experience shared.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=62196189

The OP was asking for another solution and it wasn't clear where he started from to correctly recovery so tried to answer including all the options for each build. I added some things that may help depending on his situation.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZeroNRG:
Not sure if I am the only one but after updating from 5.1.0 (LMY47I) to 5.1.1 (LMY48B) my Brodit Active holder USB (w/2.1a sig.) went from AC Charging to USB Charging.

Did not notice it at first but realised that my battery was draining too much whilst driving with CPU hog Waze open, later started to eliminate issues and found out it was somehow kernel related

Can someone explain to me what changed between the Kernel used in 5.1.0 and 5.1.1??

[Galaxy Tab S2 General] ProStreetCamaro:
Just watched a benchmark comparison between the S and S2 and the S2 appears to be a dud. Only like 52000 on antutu. My Nexus 6 with snapgragon 805 scores higher than that. why samsung did not use the same exynos they put in the S6 is beyond me. What do you guys think about it? Supposed to be out by end of the month from what I read.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Itchiee:
Still faster then most of the world has but should be a little better for a flagship. I'm happy that i don't need to upgrade this year!
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Gray44:
But still the fastest tablet, yes they could use the S6 cpu, but why would they do that?

They are selling tablets to make money not to please their customers.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] clubtech:
The YouTube video I watched showed it has double the scores than the original tab s... What's your point OP?
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] ThE_SoUrCe:
samsung will not sell a tablet that will outclass it's flagship phones, tab S2 is lucky enough to receive a core from S6 compared to our tablet which didn't even receive the S5's 5422 which is HMP capable (all cores firing) yet pushing a larger screen resolution 1440p.

Tab S2 could be worth the upgrade only if

1) they retain or make the screen reso higher

2) better camera WITH flash (why dont they use a bigger camera on a bigger device? )

3) forget being super thin, we need battery!!

4) (personal preference) thinner bezel on all sides

perhaps somewhere down the road, we'll see a tab S edge LOL
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] drmodify:
My only gripe is that they forgot support for our tab S! Where are these damn updates!
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Gray44:
I don't think the specs are too bad. I like the new ratio 4:3 I primarly use the tablet to browse and read, "watching videos" comes third, (and I certainly won't watch complete movies. :) )

I love that the tablet is as light as possible, I hope it won't affect the battery too much

Yes the S2 should've received the new S6 cpu... But on the other hand, will it make any practical differences instead of a number in a benchmark? I doubt it.

They saved money by not implementing a flash. Which is a pitty for a flagship. But on the other side I don't think I ever made more than 10 photos with my old tablet.

Price is unfortunately not cheap, you pay a flagship price.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Jakeuten:
Remember the Tab Pro?

That hasn't seen one major OS update. Released a few months earlier than the Tab S. Samsung needs to support their tablet line up.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Kayak83:
Found this today:

http://www.androidauthority.com/galaxy-tab-s2-initial-impressions-632447/

Specs for those who haven't seen (this is a review of the import model so USA specs might be different?)

Exynos 5433 Octa-core SoC

3GB of RAM

32 or 64GB of on-board storageand

8-megapixel rear, 2.1-megapixel front camera set-up (no front flash)

Android 5.0.2

and features

Same “touch-based” fingerprint sensor used in the Galaxy S6

MicroSD

9.7-inch variant includes a 5,870mAh battery - the 8-inch variant a 4,000mAh power-cell

4:3 aspect ratio- 2048×1536 SAMOLED display

I JUST bought my Tab S a few days ago knowing this was going to be formally announced within my 15 days return policy period. But I got the 8.4 Tab S on sale for $299 at Best Buy, which I think it a great price point. It would take OUTSTANDING battery life and some kind of totally revamped touchwiz or stock android option with the newest snapdragon for me to switch I think.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Tinderbox (UK):
I don't want any updates, I could be on official lollipop but i decided to stick with kitkat that is super stable, no way am i going to upgrade to lollipop as it has too many bugs, that out-way the new features.

Yeah, I noticed that the Tab Pro owners are still on kitkat, I have been posting on their forum warning them about lollipop if they get version v5.0.2

If we get Android M, I will wait for any problems to show before i upgrade or not.

John.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] obsydian:
Samsung just dump a product within a year. Hate to say it but I find that's why people buy Apple plus the residual sales values.

So as Samsung copy everything Apple can't they also copy software support.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] UpInTheAir:
I personally love the Lollipop update !

Particularly the recent updates coupled with my SkyHigh kernel make it so much faster, smoother and stable than KK.

That's what we do here at XDA, we don't want to hear whining, we want to be proactive and try improve on it ;)

So what other "bugs" if you haven't bothered to upgrade ? Some found on other websites and forums have mentioned poor RAM management, but this has been the "norm" for most Samsung devices and TW. My kernel goes someway to addressing that.

As far as Tab-S2 goes - I'm really disappointed in the SoC (amongst other hardware). Not premium at all....
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Tinderbox (UK):
Not everybody want to flash their Tab S due to warranty ect, A lot of people have reported problems with official lollipop v5.0.2, all i am saying is they should wait for any problems to be revealed before upgrading.

It`s great that you found a lollipop rom that works for you. :D

John.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] UpInTheAir:
Users should make up their own minds rather than taking advice from someone who (by admission) hasn't bothered to try themselves.

For those that worry, the latest LL firmwares far exceed the old KK firmwares as far as stability and smoothness in it's stock state. Take it from someone whom has flashed both stock and customized KK and LL firmware for T705.

It's easy to find out yourself and just as easy to downgrade via Odin without breaking warranty.

But things can always be improved upon (depending on point-of-view) and modified with options. Why ? Because this is XDA-DEVELOPERS, not sammobile.com. ;)

Anyway, sorry OP for the OT.

[Galaxy Tab S2 General] ayamgoreng:
my tablet use always 60% movie, 20% browsing/reading news, 20% gaming.

I don't think 4:3 will do much good for me.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Edgrr000:
I just got this little beast yesterday. I live in Thailand where it was released about 4 days ago, i paid exactly $451 for the 32gb LTE 8-inch version. In the past 5 years that i have been on and off samsung devices, this is the first time that i notice a smooth, lagless touchwiz experience. Actually, before i even buy any samsung devices i make sure they have been in the market a few months, and there a few customs roms out. This time around samsung did a good job cutting down on the bloatware and the new redesigned touchwiz is surprisingly good.

The 4:3 ratio is perfect for me as i will be using it mainly for school.

The only thing i am concerned about is battery life, The Huawei Ascend Mate 7, a 6-inch phablet, has a 4100mah battery. This 8-inch tablet has a 4000mah battery.

Samsung claims:

9 hours of LTE web browsing,

10 hours of WIFI web browsing

14 hours of video.

Here are my stats for the first 5 hours:

Turned on with 55%,

after 5 hours it was sitting at 10% with 3 hours of SOT,

somewhat heavy usage downloading apps, setting it up, installing everything, and testing it.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Tinderbox (UK):
That oled display is going to kill your battery for school work, all that white gulps down the power, you would gave been better off with an lcd display that does not care what colour the screen is.

Check to see if your apps/browser has an night mode that turn white to black, If your prefer white just keep the brightness low to save as much power as possible.

John.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Edgrr000:
I thought so too, My next option was the iPad mini. I'll just use this one for now and see how well it performs, and when the new iPad mini comes out, i'll decide which is better.

[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Edgrr000:
Battery life went bad for me over the past week. I found the culprit being office, any suggestions?
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Tinderbox (UK):
As the S2 does not have root yet, if you do not use the app you could try disabling it in application in settings, or you could buy the app below as it`s the only app that works without root, a few people with an S1 use this app and like it, it only works with Samsung phones/tablets and does not require root, but i don't know of any S2 owner using it, so you would be a bit of an test piolet, there use to be an free version but it was removed, you get 15min to get a refund it it does not work.

One thing about S2 T715 (over s1 and tab pro) here in U.S on ATT I am getting LTE or 4g whatever one calls it -shows 4g in status bar (can tell as internet mms etc are much faster) whereas s1 and tab pro managed the hspa+ only (maybe there is a way of getting actual upload and download rates)

[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Erasmus354:
After using my new S2 (9.7) for primarily Netflix and local video watching I can say the 4:3 ratio doesn't bother me at all. The primary reason for that is the AMOLED display. I did a lot of watching in the dark at night, and some during the day. The AMOLED display gets completely black for the bars, so you cannot see them at all at night. During the day you really have to try to distinguish them from the bezel (I got the black model). Therefore the superb AMOLED display has taken away the negatives of the aspect ratio for media consumption. So I get the benefit of 4:3 for reading and web browsing and pretty much no downside for movie watching!

[Galaxy Tab S2 General] zapote21:
Love my S2... Didnt think I would like the 4:3, but its nice. But then again I also have a Nexus 9... And yes, I do own a Tab S1 10.5

Time to sell those 2 and keep my S2
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Deathman20:
Still a nice snappy tablet which I'm enjoying. Probably about the biggest + to this compared to other tablets I've owned in the recent past... it has space! The onboard storage of 32GB is soooo nice. I'm not running into a storage issue at all the which GREAT!

Yeah I'm getting slightly better but I play a lot of games on it so its sucking the battery a little more with the CPU/GPU working harder.

Though I did watch a movie on it and it dropped only 18% for a 2 1/2 hour movie. Screen brightness was around 30%.

Have you tried going into the app and maybe seeing what it was doing, closing all excel files? I haven't personally had an issue with any of the office suite since I've been using it.

Though as suggested if your not using it, you could disable it at very least. If you are just make sure its at least closed. Maybe a reboot might help.

[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Apoxx:
This one is way snappier than the Tab S.

And batterylife was a huge concern for me, but it turns out to be quite good.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] fotaz:
Tried the 8.0 out, but ended up returning it. I liked a lot of things about the tablet, like how nice the design was and how light it felt in the hand. But the biggest downfall was the AMOLED display. I'm being picky here, but my unit had a slight purple tint on the bottom half of the screen that was very noticeable in white and gray backgrounds. So when reading ebooks or PDFs, my eyes were going from reading text on a white background to reading text on a darker/light purple background on every page.

I got really annoyed and ended up going to BB to check out their display model. It wasn't as bad, but there was still a slight tint on the left hand side of the screen. At this point I just gave up and returned the S2. I've dealt with Samsung's panel lottery before, and I didn't want to go through the hassle again. I'll probably look into an ASUS tablet now. Yeah their screen might be inferior but at least it'll be consistently crappy across the entire screen without having a weird gradient effect going on.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] fabiovolta:
On my 8" I see a faint bluish color alteration watching the screen from any but a perfect 90° angle, but on the whole I still really like it.

I tested both the Tab S 8.4 and the iPad Mini 2 recently. The S was just too long for my liking. It felt more like a giant Galaxy S6 than a tablet. I ended up going with the Mini 2. My biggest gripe with the Mini 2 currently is that even though the screen is 2K, the IOS YouTube app is still capped at 1080p on 2K and 4K videos. Also, Apple could upgrade the camera... it's been stagnant for a few Mini models now.
