I can't say I'd call that a worst day. Congrats.

Damn. No wireless charger or T-shirt?
[Galaxy Note5 General] drmacrofish:
Oh, yeah I got the wireless charger too. No tshirt though. ;-p
[Galaxy Note5 General] drmacrofish:
Hey, any of you guys who got the wireless charger having any issues with it charging a bit and then stopping. It seems very flakey. Maybe it is just really sensitive to positioning? Or maybe I got a bum charger.
[Galaxy Note5 General] mocsharp:
Still waiting for a pick email/phone call for 64gb/white. Were all of you able to use the $200 gift card immediately as a down payment for the phone?

thanks.
[Galaxy Note5 General] done12many2:
This has been been covered in depth within this very thread.

To answer your question. Yes.

---------- Post added at 10:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:31 AM ----------

This was reported earlier. Maybe you could check your USB cable? I haven't received mine yet.
[Galaxy Note5 General] drmacrofish:
Yeah, I did notice last night that when I unplugged the cable from the wireless charger and then plugged it back in, that this was when it finally charged the phone up fully without stopping....strange. I am going to check out some of my other Qi chargers today with the phone, and if they are good, I will assume it is just this charger. Then will have to see if BB can exchange it or whatever I guess.
[Galaxy Note5 General] done12many2:
Good luck and keep us posted.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Uniquebarbee:
I went down to pickup my Black 64GB Note 5 I traded in a prepaid phone( Yes a prepaid phone that little 15$ one that bestbuy has a deal on currently) and was able to get the 200$ gift card and an addition 100$ gift card and the free wireless charger. So I walked away with a free wireless charger and 300$ gift card I did not receive a T-shirt or a bracelet. all in all I was happy and I was able to spend the gift card right away I bought other items non phone related
[Galaxy Note5 General] drmacrofish:
Nice, what was the additional 100$ for?
[Galaxy Note5 General] Uniquebarbee:
I have Sprint it was part of a Sprint deal for getting the note 5/S6 Edge Plus promo only available at best buy
[Galaxy Note5 General] done12many2:
Nice!
[Galaxy Note5 General] jfenton57:
Hmmmmm...I got a Sprint 64 GB black at BB on Friday and no $100 gift card....did get the $200 for the phone trade in. Just checked the BB website and the Note 5 isn't listed on that BB / Sprint promo.

Has anyone else received it??????
[Galaxy Note5 General] lightiv:
I am Sprint also and no word on this $100. Would like to have the details on that.
[Galaxy Note5 General] mocsharp:
Just picked up AT&T Note 5 and got $200 for Lumia 635 trade-in but didn't get the $45 gift card for Next :(

I was able to use $200 toward down payment.
[Galaxy Note5 General] done12many2:
It really sucks that this varies from store to store liken that. Either way, you still got a great deal.
[Galaxy Note5 General] S197Mike:
From what I was told it was a offer for upgrading a current next plan to offset the activation fee associated with the new fees AT&T charges now

Im not eligible for an upgrade until late next year so I just added a new line . I did not have to pay anything up front they gave me my tax that I paid for the pre release back which was 69.36$
[Galaxy Note5 General] drmacrofish:
Nobody else having issues with the wireless charger not working? Mine starts out charging and the flashes blue and stops charging. If I put the Note 5 on my Tylt wireless charger though it works just fine. I am guessing it must be a problem with the charger.
[Galaxy Note5 General] S197Mike:
My gf and I both notice they seem to turn on and off every so often, my guess maybe it's so the unit doesn't over heat from the coils used to charge?
[Galaxy Note5 General] Uniquebarbee:
I did not use it yet but I saw in another thread people were having trouble with the charger I believe they said it was the usb cord itself

smh I see why bestbuy was happy to get rid of the chargers lol
[Galaxy Note5 General] kylis105:
All the Best Buys around Los Angeles seem to be out of the 64gb verizon variant. They refuse to talk about stock over the phone so I have no idea when they will get more in. Hope its before this deal runs out.
[Galaxy Note5 General] done12many2:
I called the number listed on my pre-order paperwork. The guy helping me was able to see the inventory at my store. He offered to attempt to reassign my pre-order to another local store, but I decided to wait due to manager at the original store promising me an additional discount. I'm glad I didn't switch because I got the email the next morning and the manager followed through on the discount.

You may consider this option if you've had to wait this long.
[Galaxy Note5 General] kylis105:
I did not preorder, and the offer seems to only go for in store tradein.
[Galaxy Note5 General] jfenton57:
I used my charger last night and it seems to work just fine.....phone was at 100% this morning.
[Galaxy Note5 General] S197Mike:
Yeah my charger still works but every so often it like does that sound when you plug your charger in and flashes the wireless blue ring on the screen.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Uniquebarbee:
The trade in for the 200$ gift card is only good until August 29th the free Charger is good until September 26th. You might just want to get the 32GB and hope they get the 64GB within the 14 day exchange time
[Galaxy Note5 General] kevroc:
If you order online for store pickup, can you then do the trade-in when you get to the store? Or does the whole transaction have to be "in-store"?
[Galaxy Note5 General] Uniquebarbee:
You can do the trade in in the store they give you the gift card after you have your phone. The trade in is good until August 29th
[Galaxy Note5 General] kevroc:
Okay, thanks. I'm hoping to use the gift card towards the phone purchase.
[Galaxy Note5 General] kjplaysguitar:
same problem

Yeah I picked up 3 note 5 bb promos for my family and the same problem with 1 out of 3 . I took it back to the store and they ordered me a replacement wireless charger.
[Galaxy Note5 General] drmacrofish:
Yeah, I took mine back today and got a replacement one. Hopefully this one work better.
[Galaxy Note5 General] surfinguru:
Finally got my 64GB, black ATT version. Traded in an old crackle berry 8310 for the $200 gift card, but man that was a pain in the ass. I Had no idea what the p/w was and the BB guys said they'd only take it if they could get the IMEI # off of it. Ended up stuffing the p/w enough times that the phone erased all content and reset itself. (Had an iPhone 4 in hand just in case.) also got the $45 gift card.

Bummer thing in all this was our son lost his phone last weekend and used up our only upgrade. End up having to pay off the balance on the wife's iPhone 6 to get the discounts etc. - ouch!

Bottom line:

Trade in: BB 8310

Free charger - NOT a fast wireless charger

Note 5, 64GB, black, ATT

$200 gift card

$45 gift card
[Galaxy Note5 General] serpent2005:
I know people have been having issues with the charger that comes with the deal. I have noticed the same issues. I have found that unplugging the charger and then plugging it back in has helped.
[Galaxy Note5 General] drmacrofish:
Yep, I found the same. I did take mine back and get a replacement one, but it is doing the same thing....crazy cause Sammy charges 50$ for this thing. I may try to exchange one more time, but I am not too confident.
[Galaxy Note5 General] DAvid_B:
Sprint is giving me a $200 credit for sending in an HTC Touch Pro.. lol
[Galaxy Note5 General] raze5115:
I work at a best buy in arizona united states and my manager told me only 100 best buy stores are doing the $200 promo for trading in any working smart phone whether it is worth $0 or actually worth something., & only 2 of the 100 stores are in arizona. & yes the smart phone has to power on and I think it can't be a prepaid phone.
[Galaxy Note5 General] S197Mike:
Why do I feel this isn't correct. I live in Chicago and there is like 20-30 best buy in the metro area. And it doesn't say on the promo at select stores either. Maybe not 100 but certainly more than that
[Galaxy Note5 General] djoutlaw32:
Same here with the charger. Works for 15 minutes and starts flashing and stops charging. I have a feeling it's a software glitch. If I power off the phone completely it will keep charging
[Galaxy Note5 General] serpent2005:
I have a spigen wireless charging stand and it just works. Maybe the Samsung charger should be exchanged for a different brand.
[Galaxy Note5 General] pyrosive:
Anyone else having issues upgrading with Sprint? I have tried over the past to upgrade, both in store and online. I even called their mobile support and tried to get them to place the order and it wouldn't work. It keeps saying I'm not eligible for an upgrade, despite both the best buy and sprint websites saying that I am.

The promotion for the $200 gift card ends tomorrow (29th) so I really want this to work. The Sprint stores near me aren't even carrying the 64GB yet.
[Galaxy Note5 General] S197Mike:
I would call sprint or go online and see if your eligible in their system to verify. Then try again. Maybe check your contract?
[Galaxy Note5 General] Uniquebarbee:
No problem here I pre ordered on BestBuy online went to pick it up on launch day and was able to get the 200$ trade in and did the 200$ Sprint mail in also. If I were you I'd just go to BestBuy and don't leave until you have your 64GB in hand. I was able to get the 64GB

A) TWRP file that you linked to is not compatible for my device

B) I tried the solution for the camera above. It still doesn't work, and now the message is "Unfortunately, the Camera has Stopped working". Gallery is fine to open (and always has been, its just the camera that won't work).
[General Questions and Answers] Bigbossyousef:
Have you tried a factory reset search it on Google very easy
[General Questions and Answers] shizzmoney:
Yes but I consider this the "nuclear option" as I don't have a way to backup all of my apps I've installed on the thing (unless you guys have a suggestion to do so that doesn't involve TWRP).

If there is a way I can get TWRP on this thing, that would be preferable as then I can backup everything, do a FDR, and then reload the backup.
[General Questions and Answers] Ciprum:
Of course there is a way to back everything up! The anwser is Titanium Backup. Just look it up on Google Play.
[General Questions and Answers] shizzmoney:
I backup everything up via TB, went fine, including restore. Then did a FDR.

However, the camera still didn't work :( Has to be something conflicting with the root methinks, or the camera might just be kaput.
[General Questions and Answers] Ciprum:
Just use a third party camera such as Google Camera.
[General Questions and Answers] shizzmoney:
It says it "cant connect to the camera"

H950PR will work if your upgrade from ATT 5.0.1 to PR 5.1.1, But if you try from ATT 5.1.1 to PR 5.1.1 will brick your device

Root your H950PR HERE

Hey guys, many of you have trouble upgrading to 5.1.1, or have a soft bricked phone or just want to have the international firmware (beacuse everybody knows att sucks!!!)

Well Great News, there is a variant H950PR (Puerto Rico) is compatible with us H950 with the same LTE Bands :D

Tips

***Remove the Sim Card and Micro SD

***Copy the KDZ file into LG flash tool folder... Run the programm like Administrator

***If you get "connection to server failed... try again in a moment". That's normal... Move the window (don't press ok or close the windows) you'll see it actually flashing, only wait to your phone reboot

For those that already flash H950PR but wanted to get LTE access like stock..

Dial 277634#*# in dialer
Open the menu
Go into Field Test > Modem Settings>LTE band Selection>Band 17

Back

Then go to RAT selection
Select GSM/WCDMA/LTE

[LG G Flex 2] Alex_XV6700:
This is great news for H950 users.

As an avid LG user I would recommend not to update with this firmware.

And here´s a little story to back this up:

I bought an LG D850PR version.

I accidentally flashed a tmo (D851) firmware to it.

It got absolutely bricked (no download, recovery, fastboot) (qualcomm 9008), to the point that even using the stock AT&T 10b or 20a tot of KK and LP will not revive the phone.

I used almost every single method to unbrick it (boarddiag, QPST, any flashtool you name it).

So if you mess up and your phone gets Qualcomm 9008 you´re done (Game Over).

Also I am overseas so my phones got no warranty at all and I have a lovely bricked D850PR.
[LG G Flex 2] Sj12345:
I bricked my phone too, H950, it was my first time flashing a KDZ, and I did something wrong, I sent my phone to LG

But when my phone comes back, I will try again, or someone can try like last option before to send it to LG

I prefer have a kdz/tot for make a clean install, and it is h950pr to h950, not h955 to h950
[LG G Flex 2] Alex_XV6700:
I know... My phone was D850PR and the problem is there is no tot to extract the files from. Only KDZ format so I cant repair my phone with the original KK D850 files. Nothing happens it doesnt boot to fastboot or download. So I wouldnt suggest the flashing.
[LG G Flex 2] Sj12345:
I just check and see that you have LGD850PR20A.KDZ, why you cant extract the files? I did it, I extracted from 950PR.KDZ some files like boot.img, laf.img recovery.img etc.... the reason why I cant use all the programs you said, is because the AP chipset is not supported (SP810 MSM8994) but the G3 is supported (MSM8974AC).

I know its hard to find information about it..... I hope someday we can get a tool that can fix

Well, that was my experience and I got brick
[LG G Flex 2] Alex_XV6700:
Boarddiag uses .mbn files.

How would you extract .img files from a KDZ.

Cause with LG Firmware Extractor you extract .bin files and only system.img

Boarddiag cant use KDZs because they extract in too long or too short files and with wrong extensions and weird names.

I even paid for online remote repair and the dude said its weird that with D950 normal files we couldnt repair. My phone is clean esn too.
[LG G Flex 2] Sj12345:
I downloaded the SRKTools and tried to find the code to flash the partition and I found this

rename_to_bin.bat
rename_to_img.bat

So I think it use the .bin files and only rename it to .img..... same like LG Firmware Extractor, it merge all the system.bin files and rename it to .img

That was my conclusion... :p

It is hard to fix a QHSUSB_BULK, but you got Qualcomm 9008 AKA Super Bricked Mode XD same like me, for that we have to fix the corrupt bootloader, but I said F*** it lol Warranty!!
[LG G Flex 2] Alex_XV6700:
Haha lucky you, you have warranty. As I told you earlier I was left with a beautiful brick. Im waiting for the arrival of an Octopus Box, its got integrated Jtag. So I hope I can help others if I manage to unbrick mine. For now I'm really really pleased with Flex2 its an amazing phone.
[LG G Flex 2] kiscvik:
SO i can try with this kdz?

Sorry i didnt understand. I can use this kdz to update h950 att to a stock and clean rom?

Or maybe i can get brick my phone? Thank you.
[LG G Flex 2] Sj12345:
Both lol, you can use it to upgrade but be careful, only do it if you know how to flash or you did before because if it fail then game over xD
[LG G Flex 2] kiscvik:
I know how to flash but no in LG.

I know how to flash but its my first time on LG, So it works perfect? Its android 5.1.1? Thank you.|

[LG G Flex 2] Sj12345:
read the post above.... I bricked my phone and sent it to LG because if you do it wrong... you will get super bricked mode with no solution ATM

The reason why I failed..... I tried under Windows 10, I had an official LG tool installed (I should first unistall it) and was my first time flashing a KDZ.... I repeat if you know how to do it then Go ahead
[LG G Flex 2] kiscvik:
SO you will do it again? or you know if some one do it?, i dont wanna brick my phone jajaja thanks
[LG G Flex 2] Sj12345:
hey, talking with [MENTION=6899253]joseacuna[/MENTION], he said me:

So... I think it's not working at all... I will try to find other KDZ.... Or dump all the partitions from the g Flex and make and script.... but it is a lot of work and I dont have my flex right now...:crying:
[LG G Flex 2] Tikerz:
That link is for the G4, not the G Flex 2.. Are you telling him to flash that? Am I missing something?
[LG G Flex 2] Sj12345:
yes, that is the G4 forums and like I posted "ATT G4 (H810) users can use the KDZ for Puerto Rico Edition (H810PR) because it has the same LTE bands to work"..... So we have the ATT Flex 2 (H950) users, in theory, we can use the Puerto Rico KDZ (H950PR) cause it is the same hardware and software

Read the op, I posted that link like a guide, the kdz file is in the first post
[LG G Flex 2] exerostasis:
Has anyone tried?

I'm wondering if anyone has tried and succeeded in flashing this on a h950. I see people have failed but don't see where anyone has said it worked.

Need stock KDZ for h950

If there is a way to create a kdz from a phone running stock firmware i'm running stock still so if you tell me how to create one i will.

I have been reading up on how to root my S6 Edge UK model SM-G925F. I must admit I have read to much on this I am completely lost and just need a pointer to a safe way to do so. I am a newish android user coming from iPhone and being used to jailbreak only.

I am concerned reading the issues with triggering knox and basically anything which is going to invalidate the warranty on my 3 day old S6 Edge.

Could anyone point me in the right direction and I really am sorry due to understanding this ha's been discussed in many threads.

[LG G2 Mini] George 97:
Hello! I really need some help from you guys. For about several months i have something like a bug on my G2 Mini. This problem was on 4.4.2 and now after Lollipop update, still persist. The thing is that everytime when i got a message on Facebook, i tap the ,,message icon,, appears the conversation with that person and when i want to write like 5 words it dissapears the whole conversation. I click again the ,,message icon,, on Facebook and again the same thing:it dissapears. So I need to go to Messenger app and continue my conversation. The exactly same thing happens when i got a message from somebody(not on facebook..just on my phone) and when it appears on screen and i try to write something, again it dissapears, then i need to go again on my message app(standard message app) because i`m not using Hangouts. So i have to go again in my message app and write again the whole thing. This is just getting frustrating and i heard that other people are complaining too. Do you have some kind of solution? Do I need to root my phone? Please help!
