[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevs888:
So, I totally got into it yesterday with T-Mobile and have decided to leave them. Their customer service has been so non-helpful over the past 8 weeks, it's ridiculous.

As a result, I'm going to jump from my S6 Edge to either a Note 5 64GB or an S6 Edge Plus 64GB tomorrow, get my Netflix code and then port my number out.

From there, I'm going to most likely sell the Note 5 or Edge Plus and get a One Plus Two now that I won't be able to jump anymore and the OPT is too good for the price (I have a friend pretty low on the invite list and they normally get invites after they purchase).

My question is, in about 3-4 weeks time, what phone would have a better resale value? I understand, too, that the Edge Plus 64GB will be about $100 more anyway, so I'm taking that into consideration.

Thanks for any input!

EDIT: I'm in the US, if that makes a difference.

Note 5. Because the price is higher on the edge+, people will be less willing to pay for it, especially used.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] i_am_spoons:
Emergency firmware restored messed up my phone. Virgin Mobile

I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 on virgin mobile. I was screwing up so I flashed a new Rom to it. Cm12 had terrible battery life so I switch back. However, it soft bricked my phone and destroyed the partition table somehow. The only way to fix that was to do a firmware restore via the Samsung program Kies. The program worked and my phone was restored. The issue I'm having is that the vm and the Sprint version of the s3 have the same model number. The program flashed over sprint firmware and I can't get data on my phone. I called vm and they told me it was improperly activated, but after 2 hours of being on the phone with them, it still doesn't work.

The weirdest thing is that the virgin mobile logo doesn't pop up on boot and I don't have the vm apps preloaded on my phone. Any ideas?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wetsleet:
Using Note 4 SM-910F with Android 5.0.1 and any browser, images in the BBC.co.uk/news website articles (not the homepage) compress after they have momentarily displayed. So the page downloads, for a moment you see the headline picture nice and clear, then a moment later it degrades and shows compression artefacts. See attached pair of before/after screen captures. Look especially at the "Ashley Madison" text in the lower right corner of the photo, and the overall image clarity and detail.

I suspect this is something to do with the BBC and their love of 'responsive' web design. I have asked the BBC but no reply yet. But any chance it is a fault in the Note 4?

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dligon:
So you already have an invite for the one+ 2 or your going to just wait til you do that seems like it may take a while. If you sell either one on swappa you may get a good chunk of you money back especially I would think with the edge plus.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevs888:
He's in the 200K range on the invite list, so I'm guessing he'll get his in about a week or two (hopefully) and then maybe get his extra invites within that week.

I love my S6 Edge, but after I "Jump", I think more people may want the Note 5? This is pure speculation on my part...
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WizeGuyDezignz:
Put the One +2 next to your S6 Edge and you might cry. That's how much better the S6 Edge screen is compared to it.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevs888:
Oh, there's no question that the screen is better on the Sammy. However, by me leaving T-Mobile and now having to buy the phone outright instead of the monthly plan, I could get 2 One Plus Two's in the 64GB for the price of one Edge 64GB.

I've owned every Galaxy S from the S3-S6 Edge and Note 3 - Note 5 (most likely today).

It'll be hard to part with Sammy, but T-Mobile has been so bad for me in terms of customer service, I just can't stay...
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bagged00:
Note 5 will probably be better resale. As far as I know the s6 edge didn't do so hot because the curved edges. People were afraidoing of a drop being more like to cracked the screen. I'm sure the same thought will go into the edge +. I'd like to sell my edge because a good glass screen protector isn't available and isn't looking so hot for one to ever be.I'd like to go to a note 5.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SPreston2001:
Last I heard the S6 Edge outsold the regular S6 by alot. It's hard not to fall in love with those curved edges....
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbfountain:
Take a look on EBay for the S6 Edge. Search by lowest price, and you will see nothing but S6's with cracked screens for the first several dozen. I would imagine that the S6 Edge+ will crack easier being a much larger-heavier phone.

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpufrost:
A thin TPU like Diztronic will prevent 95% of drop issues.

Just don't drop it over rocks. ;)

And yes I don't care for T-Mobile either.

And remember any remaining balance on EIP becomes immediately due when the associated number is ported.

And don't expect to have that phone sim unlocked any time soon after doing that as well.

Dealing with TMO support is about as fun as taking a 400 foot walk down a 300 foot pier and french kissing a bull shark!
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robber:
Edge+ does great in drop tests from what I have seen. It is not fragile, like you might think.

Fwiw, I have never seen a phone hold its value as well as the s6 edge has. Take a look at swappa, it is a 6 month old phone that is still hovering around $500+.

[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultimatdan:
I've been reading around the web articles like this http://www.slashgear.com/lg-g4-wins...iphone-6-and-galaxy-s6-in-low-light-03395377/ and starting to get concerned with the Note 5 camera quality when compared to LG's G4. Now this is obviously assuming the N5 produces the same results as the S6 since its supposedly the exact same camera. Maybe the camera quality has been upgraded a bit since the S6? I doubt it. More specifically, I'm concerned about the low light/ night time pics on the N5 and considering getting the G4 instead. I know stores just started getting the N5 but has anyone spent any time comparing the two phones' camera quality? And how noticeable is the difference? Thanks!
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ekerbuddyeker:
Search the web. I did see a couple of comparisons but can't remember where. G4 was best in low light . Note 5 was more contrasty, iPhone was most accurate. I think. :)

Actually I keep thinking about getting the g4. If you go to that forum and look at the pic quality, it is outstanding.

[Moto G 2015 Themes and Apps] sticktornado:

[Moto G 2015 Themes and Apps] makers_mark:
Yeah, it's possible, but what I think you're asking is if I can do it, and I'm not proficient enough to write a bash script to do everything my batch script does. You're probably better off running a Windows vm, or if you know what you want to replace with what, send me the images and I'll do it for you.

Yeah, that's what I was getting at. I know nothing about it or I would do it so I just thought I would ask. I have a Windows laptop( a cheap one though that is slow), and I'm able to use your script on it. It works great by the way! But I prefer my Ubuntu laptop and try not to use the other if possible. I will just use it on Windows or check out the VM like you suggested. Thanks for replying though and for the script!

edit moto x pure .bin

I cannot get v1.1 to validate my logo.bin file and open it to edit. Im pretty sure it is valid because I flashed it and am currently using it. phone is a moto x pure. any tips?
[Moto G 2015 Themes and Apps] makers_mark:
You probably downloaded a logo.bin that was altered. The popular thing to do is simply use a hex editor and edit the offset of the logo unlocked image so that it points to the logo boot image. These will fall validation with my program because I check that the offset of an image meets exactly at the tail end of the previous image. It may work on your phone, but it's a safety I put there to check mainly the modified logo that is produced. I may change that though for the initial validation.
[Moto G 2015 Themes and Apps] etmidust:
Thanks, ill keep looking for one I can actually edit then.
[Moto G 2015 Themes and Apps] makers_mark:
You have one on your phone ☺ I don't have a device, so I don't know the exact location of your logo partition. But follow this guide and you can grab yours off of your phone.

EDIT :

Unless the one there is the already modified one. In that case, try dragging your whole downloaded system image (from Motorola) onto the program. If it is unzipped, the program will find it and cut it out.

Many of my Llama rules don't get activated on my S5. If I run them manually the events seem to work well but the automation thing seems to be degraded. Not sure how to proceed with this. Maybe others are experiencing the same or have a fix for this? Please jump in if you have a good idea.

After all it might be a good idea to switch to tasker .. since that still seems to be supported well (Llama isn't .. I have never ever received an answer from the dev). A question that's worth asking in that context: Is there a converter that converts Llama rules to tasker out there?

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daniello8:
Hi Leute!

One example rule that is a probelm is to turn on GPS when a location aware app is in foreground. For example: Start GPS when Google Maps is launched. Used to work fine on Kitkat but not on Lollipop.

I can fire the rule manually but the OR rule with the app listing doesn't seem to fire anything.

Another example is a "lockscreen off" rule that doesn't fire. The preconditions are green but it doesn't work (doesn't appear in the log). When I fire it manually it appears in the log and it works.

Both rules call locale plugins but I don't think that is the problem. I'd expect the rule to be listed in the log file (chronic) even if the events don't work.

Cheers,

Daniel
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flattervieh:
That's a problem in Lollipop as i read on the dev's homepage.

http://kebabapps.blogspot.co.uk/2014/11/active-app-lollipop-fix.html

It seems Google changed something in the API to detect a running app. Therefore there might be some problems.

I just installed the most recewnt version of Llama from the homepage above and now i get an error messgae that there are problems with this too.

I use a similar rule as you, but i change the volume when i start a navigation software.

As soon as i start the app, the rule is applied, but it seems that there is istill a problem to switch back when i close the app.

As i posted on my first impressions:

Here we are, my first full battery cycle . I'm sure you will get better SOT than me, my gps usage was about 3h , spotify , bluetooth , android wear, high brightness , apps updates , downloads etc.. and this is what i got.

I notice you can get better results, why? Well, with my one plus one and my usage i got 4h of SOT, and most people could get easily 6h , with my SG6 edge i get around 3h SOT and most people got 4h / 4.30h , those are my daily results, with my normal usage statistics , if i wanted i could make it better, way better.. but thats not the case.
[X Play General] tersagun:
That's an impressive result. 5 hour SoT on 5.5' is great nevertheless and you claim that the phone was under heavy usage.

I need to ask though; have you done any Greenify/Powernap/Amplify? I would guess no as I doubt you are even rooted but your wakelock status seems impressive; almost nothing while the screen was off. That means the software optimization is really good.

BTW, X Play does not come with a Turbo charger, right? How long does it last to fully charge with its own charger?
[X Play General] theserpent:
Maybe after 4-5 days of usage, you may start getting better SOT? I thought it could easily touch 6-7 hours, nevertheless this is great.
