[Galaxy S6 Accessories] eSu.Matix:
So basically I decided to share those two awesome products with you, since I myself spent decent time searching for a good case/glass combo....

Spigen Neo Hybrid

Poweradd 9H Tempered Glass

First of all I wanna thank the people who shared those product before me and their reviews.

What led me to buying those product was the huge amount of positive feedbacks both here on XDA and in Amazon, plus the fact that there were perfect combo for ~35€, else with the Zagg glass I would have payed almost twice the price for the glass and another 6€ for the delivery since I couldn't get a combo deal from Amazon. So the second best thing was the Poweradd Tempered Glass.

First about the case:

-Easy install

-Feels solid

-Improves the grip by alot! Not as good as the OnePlus One "Sandpaper" back, but still a really solid grip.

-Great look! Got it for a few days and already people have complimented it and asked me where and for how much I bought it. etc.

- Buttons are really solid and responsive, especially compared to some other cases.

-Adds a little bulk but really not that much. After a few days you actually get use to it, and when you take the case off it feels odd.

Maybe the only think I don't like about the case is that my phone is Azure Blue (Blue Topaz), so in daylight the phone looks really light blue and doesn't match the case at all. But at night on the other hand, when it gets darker shade of blue - HOT DAMN THIS THING LOOKS BEAUTIFUL!!!

As for the glass, Poweradd is not a stranger to me as a brand. I already have Poweradd power bank which is rock solid and also a friend of mine has Bluetooth/NFC receiver for his phone/laptop which is also rock solid. So I decided to trust this brand once again and I wasn't disappointed.

About the glass:

-Comes with: Alcohol wet wipe, microfiber cleaning cloth, dust removal paster, super straight forward manual on the back and the glass itself ofcourse. All standard package for a tempered glass.

-Installation was pretty easy. After applying the glass there were still few really small bubbles who disappeared after a day of use.

-The glass lined perfectly with the home button and the edges of the actual screen.

-Doesn't cover the proximity sensor.

-Responsiveness is excellent but the touch feel is not exactly as awesome as the real Galaxy S6 glass.

-0.33mm (who cares)

-9H hardness (also who cares it's a standard anyway)

-2.5D rounded edges (don't even know what that is, don't care either)

Oh and I forgot to mention that with the previous Tempered glass which I bought for 16.99€ from Saturn and I end up returning had an awful rainbow effect in the edges plus it was really poorly cut. Not really sure about the brand name tho.

Overall I'm pretty sure that this glass is as good if not better than any other glass and for the price of 10 euro it's totally worth it. Honestly I'm not really sure if I would be that happy with Zagg glass.

Here are some pics of the phone:

(OnePlus One camera)

So..... that's it. Hope I helped some of you decide. I'm pretty glad with my purchase.

Probably the best money-value combo I could get. Both products are of extreme quality.

So as the title says I, on a rooted LG H810 (ATT) cannot access LTE over mobile data. I do however have access to HSPA+. Additionally the stock APN doesn't work, I have to use a specific APN in order to access HSPA, if I dont it refuses to access mobile Data.

I have rooted the phone and the only things I have changed in the Build.Prop are DPI (540 ATM) and target carrier to OPEN in order to remove the ATT text on the notification/status bar.

I have also used debloater, and have factory restored the phone in order to see if that as the issue.

Anything I can do to fix this?

I've just got my new z3c and rooted my phone using kingroot and having used super sume to remove it and get super su my phone now won't work.

When it boots up as its loading it say Google play service stopped working and then I get a blank screen. I cannot get it to boot into recovery, in safe mode my PC doesn't seem to recognise it either.

Does anyone know if I can or cannot fix this?
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vanta-Chan:
Hi community!

Today I took my (rooted)Z3 to the pool to do some pictures and videos. Before I put it in the water, I tested the pressure sensor in the air with *#*#SERVICE#"#" and the pressure increased and sinked after a short time while the flaps are closed. Then I tested it in the water and it worked too. I took the phone in the water for ~2 minutes and then out for ~1.5 minutes (to watch the photos) about 5 times. I noticed that the touchscreen didn't react good and took it out. The front and back camera got water steam inside. Then on the lockscreen the brightness increased and decreased a lot (flickering), I tried to shut it down, but it didn't react. It shut itself down after 5 minutes.

After some hours with cleaning out the water inside with sucking and blowing with a hair dryer :

By holding on the power button, the phone vibrates once, then 3 times and does nothing. It vibrates 3 times every minute.

If I put it in the charger/pc, it vibrates 3 times, the LED Red, then green lights up and goes out. This repeats always.

Holding volume up/down;power button, the pc sees it, but the phone cancels the connection instantly. This repeats too.... which means I can't access to the filesystem to do a factory reset/removing root...

Can you guys help or is there a chance, that sony's support can help? I fear that they won't take it back and leave me sit with a 500 swiss franc brick :(

========================= Solved =========================

My rooted, waterdamaged phone got replaced with a completely new one, which means i got the TA Partition intact. Sony probably couldn't access anything on the Z3 because the Screen was completely gone (Not showing anything and not reacting to touch), USB-Debugging off and it had a Lockscreen lock.

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nepalbiraj:
Hmm it is tough then. Is there no display or can touch without seeing anything? The last method i can see is too flash system and data only from fastboot. That way the lockscreen can be removed and the files in sdcard can be viewed in the computer. And how come your z3 is rooted with usb debugging off. Always keep it to avoid these
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vanta-Chan:

Yeah, probably because they couldn't access anything on it.

Hello!

Thanks to ppl from this forum I've managed to assemble from various sources files required to dump, build and flash back to device WM6 English ROM. It is not a "plug & play" style kitchen yet, so I call it "ROM Kitchen essentials" :)

Most of files are made by other people. Mine part was converter and flasher hacking. As for now, you have to edit dumped ROM

absolutely manually

. There are no support for initflashes.dat automatisation. You may want to use rgucomp to make changes to default.hv and user.hv.

Thanks goes to (not in any order :D)

trinca

mamaich

bepe

itsme

faria

double_ofour

yhauwang

and many others...

Actual version is 0.1 :p and RAR archive is about 50Mb.

All required files (including WM6 Eng ROM distribution and flasher) can be downloaded from:

h**p://www.r*pidshare.com/files/47189318/Juggler_Samsung_WM6_Eng_ROM_Kitchen_0.1.rar.html

You also may want to download original WM6 English ROM from here:

h**p://r*pidshare.com/files/45439904/Juggler_WM6_i718ZMGF4_PDA_Eng.rar.html

And radio firmware (required for some i71x to work with WM6):

h**p://r*pidshare.com/files/45950071/Juggler_WM6_i718ZMGF4_Phone_Eng.rar.html

In case somebody don't know how to flash Samsungs i71x:

Make backup!

Have your your firmware at hand so in case of troubles you can flash your original firmware back!

Turn off device.

Disable all ActiveSync connectivity (usb, comm, etc).

Run flasher and click start.

Hold "down" button on device and turn it on while holding "down".

Flasher recongnize it and start to flash.

After flashing make a hard reset.

If GPRS/EDGE do not work your radio firmware is not compatible with new WM6. You have to go back to your original firmware or flash new radio!

To flash new radio firmware you should have

SPECIAL FLASHING CABLE

for samsung phones! It is not the one that comes with device!

Now you have options to buy such cable, build one yourself, flash your original fimware back or continue using WM6 without GPRS/EDGE - it is your choice.

So - to flash WM6 you need usual usb cable. New WM6 probably work with your radio. If not - you should flash radio!

Special flashing cable is the cable with USB-Serial adapter or plain serial cable:

h**p://www.fonefunshop.co.uk/datacables/samsung.htm

Search for UNLOCK / FLASH CABLES and you'll see

"Samsung D800 - T809 - E900 - D900 USB Cable

This cable is needed to unlock / flash the Samsung D800 - T809 - E900 - D900 etc."

Notice the difference with the usual USB cable supplied with device!

Have you read my thread on the Samsung i60x?

Hello, there,

Please refer to this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=316647

It seems very familiar to the i600. I will download your image just for the sake of taking a look... The ROM with header B000FF is prepared with the Romimage tool from the MS WCE IDE and is named the Run-time image, the nb0 ROM (that works with the WM5 kitchen) is prepared by Romimage by splitting the nb0 ROM in 128 KB records, a header is added containing start address, record length and Checksum 32. Then all this chunks are added together and compressed with another tool named compbin, the "encryption" you are seeing is no other than the aftermath of this compbin tool.

If you read myu thread you will find I was able to extract the flat image using cvrtbin (also another MS tool that comes with visual studio) you may grab a copy from here:

http://www.toradex.com/colibri_downloads/Linux/linux_to_wince/?D=D

Then you will be able to use the common tools from xda-developers such as prepare_imgfs (with the switch -acer) and so on.

Making the ROM back to the B000FF format is going to be the trouble. Again, read the thread.

There is also an excellent article on Mobilepro BIN roms made by cmonex, you can get a copy of that tutorial inside his Romtool packege, get it from here:

http://hpcmonex.net/nec900/files/releases/romtoolpack.zip

Be informed the Mobilepro ROM is very different in the way the Runtime file is organized, however is the best resource I have seen so far.

Besides, there are some really good tools inside that package

Best regards and start cooking!

Extracting the i718 ROM image: a suggestion

My friend, we are all navigating uncharted waters..., this requires some research, and the courage to flash the phone with the outcome of your research.

Please read my post:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=1371344#post1371344

It will give you a hint on how I found out how to extract the O/S payloads for the i60x, pretty sure it may work for your model as well. A quick look to your executable shows the arrangement may be similar, I would say for the i718, the O/S ROM is located last as it is on the i60x, starting at address 0x01620000 now, just by looking for the end indicator (following the string B000F, 0x0A, 0x00000000 which is the ROM start address, 0x00CA5F03 which should be the offset -little endian-, actually would be 035FCA00), however be noticed the runtime image is compressed using compbin during preparation, therefore I would guess is a little more beyond. You may have to do some research here.

Start by cutting the area surrounding such an offset and use viewbin to determine the offset length and cvrtbin to find if your cut was successful.

BTW it would be nice to find a tool to just decompress B000FF Runtime ROMS. (differently of what it does cvrtbin converting and decompressing Runtime images)

One other thing you may do is to use xdautils, you may find those here:

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=XdaUtils.

This collection of utilities has pdocread allowing you to extract the contents of raw partitions in the pda. Make sure to use the handle to extract each raw partition.

Regards,

Trinca

I had no success with cvrtbin. How to decompress image after compbin? I've found pdocread and put it to phone, but it won't work :-( Are there any tools to dump ROM to flash card or something like that?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] trinca:
To decompress the image:

Get a tool named viewbin, also part of the MS PE, run it on your file and will tell you the start address and the offset of the img files. THen use this information with cvrtbin. If viewbin reports the start address is 0, then use 1 in cvrtbin, otherwise the extraction will fail.

To use PDOCREAD, you run it from your computer, it will install itsutils.dll in your phone and you must accept this in the smartphone. Your phone must be unlocked to do that and the policies set to allow unsigned applications to be installed in your phone. TO accomplish the above you need to modify the registry on the phone. See how it is done here:

http://www.modaco.com/index.php?showtopic=244205

TO dump the ROM with PDOCREAD, see a detailed procedure here:

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_HowtoDumpRom

Be informed some phones like the i607 require the disk kernel handle, reported with pdocread -l, if you follow the procedure in the above link with no results, then add the disk handle.

Wish you good luck....

I have a i718 but was bought in China and the OS is in Chinese. The blur me can only read English. Is the ROM in English? If I were to download it (still struggling now with the russian words), how can I change it? All I need is the phone to be in English. I do not need to improve anything as WM5 is good enough.

This is self-explanatory, tell me if this is enough or you need some extra info. Once finished, the trouble would be to put that back in B000FF format for flashing, as there is no tool to do that yet, and you can't just download a raw image back into the phone.
