Thanks for your time trying to help me, I REALLY appreciate that​

Well, before telling you the problem, here is my device info:

- Moto G 2nd GEN XT1068

- I was in Android 5.0.2 Stock

- Bootloader version 48.83(*)

- CID: 0x000C​

The problem: A few days ago, with no reason (haven´t modified NOTHING at all), I turned on my device but it booted in bootloader mode... strange... so I just selected 'Normal powerup', after some seconds in the boot logo, it return to bootloader mode... always!.

Anyway, I siad: I just have to restore my firmware. Problem > I had not unlocked my device´s bootloader. Ok, I am just going to unlock (the same way as always) but, sometimes, when I enter this command mfastboot oem get_unlock_data I get this:

C:\Users\SebastianD\Desktop>mfastboot oem get_unlock_data
...
(bootloader) Failed to get unlock data, please try again!
FAILED (remote failure)
finished. total time: 5.008s

After many attempts I got my unlock data, then I did what I had to do: I went to Motorola Unlocking Website, entered my string, the code was sent to my e-mail (I did it with 2 e-mail accounts and got the same code), BUT! when I use the command mfastboot oem unlock UNIQUE_KEY I get, ALWAYS, this:

C:\Users\SebastianD\Desktop>mfastboot oem unlock [my_unlock_code]
...
(bootloader) Unlock code = [my_unlock_code]

(bootloader) unlock data invalid!
FAILED (remote failure)
finished. total time: 9.984s

I talked to Motorola service, but they say they do not have support for this because of their terms and stuff about the bootloader unlocking.

If you are more comfortable with spanish, here you can help me: LINK: Spanish Thread

This is freaking me out! I need help!​

Hello forum. I recently bought a At&t Galaxy S5 Active from a friend. The thing is I'm guessing he updated it because it's running 5.0 lollipop and if I'm correct stock for this phone is kitkat? So my big question is this, is there any possible root for an S5 active phone already running 5.0? I here some people saying something about flashing back to stock but I also here it can cause problems if trying to downgrade. I hope someone can clear this up a bit for me as I really want root. Thank you!

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] ihavenewnike:
Did you know that there is basically no more alternate upgrade for unlimited data users? I called into VZW to buy a new device on one of my three lines. My line has the unlimited data, my others do not. I was told that I would lose my unlimited data if I bought a device not at retail price. Of course I said "I know that on my line, but i want to on another line." i was then shocked to hear that VZW has a system where it can see when a device was purchased , if from them, and how it was purchased. If the system sees that a device was purchased on a 2 year or device payment plan, and then transferred to another line, that line will lose unlimited data without notice. Again, this surprised the heck out of me. Seems really shady. I called in a second time and it was confirmed to me again. What are YOUR thoughts on this? Even if you are not on an unlimited data, what are your thoughts from a customer perspective? I do not know by the way if this also applies to data promotions back in the day like my mom has. Personally the lollipop update kinda screwed my phone, so i was going to go S6 Edge+. Thanks guys.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] cam1pbell:
I've been on unlimited for years and I've never ever purchased a phone from verizon. That's the way to get rid of your unlimited is you purchase a phone from verizon I've always bought mine outright from samsung and I use my sims card from my old phone. With no problems
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] ihavenewnike:
Yeah, like i said your route works. But for people who like to use other lines to get a new phone, they can not.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] sudermatt:
Thanks form the heads up
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] FMXP:
You should never, ever involve Verizon if you're going to do something like that. Follow the methods on Slickdeals to get a subsidized phone upgrade if you are on unlimited data.

http://slickdeals.net/f/7743625-ver...year-data-plan-on-a-nationwide-basic-line?v=1

Verizon doesn't give a crap as long as you don't draw unnecessary attention to yourself, and yes going to the store and blabbing about trying to upgrade another line on your account to use on your unlimited data line is drawing unnecessary attention to yourself.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] XDAFTW:
I think it's BS and borderline scamming/illegal.

If you are purchasing it on another line it makes absolutely no difference what line it is used on or how it is used as long as it's still on your lines and activated. And it is none of their business.

Whether or not you switch it to the unlimited data line or just keep it on the others the phone and lines are still being paid for and used just the same.

IN FACT! It's only helping them. Because if you could not do that then all those who want to keep the unlimited data will just buy a phone outside of Verizon altogether. But you are buying from them.

But they are so dead set on forcing everyone off the unlimited data that they are too stupid to realize they are just ruining it both ways with a double edged sword.

They are being so stupid that I was dead set on opening a line with them as soon as I could because where I live I go from full LTE with Verizon to spotty Att....in my home...to dead zone basically with Sprint.

Because of the Bootloader thing and no root if I decide on the Note 5....I'll be getting sprint most likely with some super strong signal boosters in my windows.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] ihavenewnike:
I'll wait for next nexus and then I'll decide what to do. If it has vzw radios I'll cop that. If not then I don't know what I'll do. Wait and see I guess.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] z06mike:
I just did that last year without issue.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] oilfighter:
That can't be true. If it was true, you'll loose your unlimited data If you bought a used phone that the original owner purchased on contract.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] nutbucket:
I ordered an S6 on a tiered line and after activating it on said tiered line and the swapped in the SIM from a unlimited data line and had zero issues. Just don't try a subsidized upgrade on an UL line and you'll be fine.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] vmod32:
I agree.

I just did an line transfer upgrade last week without any problem. I have 5 lines four with unlimited data and one with 2gb. I always transfer the upgrades to the 2gb line, activate, then swap phones around. Never had a problem. I always just do everything online and never call Verizon.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] rickyray9:
Straight talk can use Verizon towers. $45 a month with 5GB of LTE and unlimited 2G after that. That's what I use, and it's been fantastic
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] jr_718:
Does straight talk use Sim cards now for Verizon?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] rickyray9:
[MENTION=4167761]jr_718[/MENTION] yeah it just happened this year. The activation pack at wally comes with all 4 carriers
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] jr_718:
Ok thanks..had them before I switched..they didn't have Sim that's why I switched to

Back to vzw...am wondering if the only phones that would work specifically for vzw on straight talk is the Verizon phones or any other phones..thanks again
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] rickyray9:
[MENTION=4167761]jr_718[/MENTION] Activation pack is a Sim pack with all 4 Sims. We've got lte now. I couldn't use my OPO with vzw ST, so I think it must be a vzw phone
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] jr_718:
Yeah I think so too...CDMA/ GSM combo jumbo crap..anyways thanks again
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] XDAFTW:
Same here at the moment

---------- Post added at 09:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:49 AM ----------

Like already said. They sure do. Of course depending on whether the phone requires one or not. But I'm 99.99999999% sure you knew that, and is what you meant ;)

---------- Post added at 09:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:53 AM ----------

That's something I hope galena in the future. Phones have all or nearly all gsm and cdma frequencies. Of course the verizon ones are somewhat there, but that doesn't help us much since they are the ones with the worst bootloader issues
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] lv128:
How I learned to stop worrying and love the Total Equipment Coverage

Just adding my two cents/story. I've been on UDP for almost 11 years, I think? Never did an upgrade, on any of my 4 lines, ever. Always bought phones from other people after checking the blacklist.

Probably almost as long as I've been a Verizon Wireless customer. I pay for the Total equipment coverage so if anything goes wrong with my phone (even if it's after the 1 year since release of a new device) they replace it with the deductible, or within the 1 year, replace it free. This actually included phones that have been reported as stolen AFTER I activated them on my account (cragislist, damn you!)

If you're a little tech savvy like me and you want the newest (within a few months) phone that comes out, here's what I did to get my note 4. YMMV, of course.

I bought a water damaged note 4 on ebay for $200 about 2 months after it's release, had to purchase a new battery and s-pen from samsung's store.

After putting in the battery, nothing, black screen, but it did play the startup jingle. Dismantled it and dried it out, mobo had the water sensor tripped, soaked it in isopropyl overnight, let it air dry.

Rice is useless for water damage, it's no better than leaving it out to dry since rice will do nothing to remove trapped water molecules under BGA chips, etc.

Want to get it actually dry? wrap it loosely in aluminum foil with a few top cuts and toaster oven it at 175deg. I use a k-type thermocouple to fine-tune the toaster oven temps, but that's just me being me, since the oven held its temps perfectly fine.

Anyway, after getting the mobo clean, we had a working picture and touch, I activate the phone and make the required 1 minute phone call to bind it to my account (required by verizon to consider it activated). The screen had some water stains, but surprisingly you can actually boil SAMOLED screens with no damage (couldn't believe it until I tried it) which drove out all the water spots as it cooled and the steam evaporated and since the water stays a balmy 212, no electronics damage either.

This also has a good use for separating samsung screens from the frames (after removing the mobo of course) I don't think any of the screens since the S3 are capable of separating the digitizer from the top glass, although I may be wrong, nothing bad happened on the note4 except for the pen layer peeling back a little, but it was still electrically intact (pen works fine, of course)

So a little RTV silicone later, mint condition fully functional note 4. Total expenditure for a phone that retails at $600? .... $255 and a couple hours of time.

If any of the process had failed after the test call, re-assemble, pay the deductible and get a new phone. I think it would have been $150 for the deductible making the phone cost $400, still cheaper than new, and no upgrade BS.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] fozzir:
I've had unlimited data since the beginning and have never had a problem getting the latest phone. Of course I'm on the family plan so all you have to do is use the upgrade on the non unlimited data phone or dumb phone then switch the numbers before activating. VZW Customer Service each time is well aware what I"m doing but have never given me problem. You can even do it online without even talking to a VZW rep, I've done that too. Yes, follow the slickdeals thread for details how to do all this.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] XDAFTW:
Very interesting. How long would you bake it for??? And how do you boil the screen???
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] warriorpluto:
You actually put the screen in boiling water?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] airmaxx23:
When did this start happening?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Jaytronics:
I think boiling water is a fantastic idea. We should throw some at all of Verizons corporate leaders vehicles. And add a lidded cat and dog mix urine on their vehicles seats and carpets. Preferably in the middle of the summer. You know? For that added freshness smell. Just saying!

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HwaA18:
Hey everyone,

I just wanted to start a thread trying to find out more about the 5.1.1 update for our phones. Personally, 5.0.1, for me at least, has been a complete bust where my battery life has really taken a hit. I went from being able to use my phone for 17 hours with nearly 5 hours of screen on time (I live in an area where the reception is spotty and I listen to music nearly 24.7), to about 12 hours with about 3 hours of screen on time, with the battery saver. I've been reading the other forums and apparently, with this update, the battery life is just as good as Kit kat and the recent apps lag is gone.

I recently also heard that Samsung is starting to ask that carriers stop selling the Note 4 is also shocking.

So, that leaves me with the question, "where's our update?" because if they keep screwing us over, how are they going to have loyal users?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patt2k:
Good question and my battery on 5.0.1 is also crap. Sprint note4 has 5.1.1 for a while already.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] outcasted2003:
By the end of Sept or Oct because the note 4 is confirmed to be one of the phones that will get Marshmallow by the end of the year.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HwaA18:
We were supposed to get 5.1.1 by the end of July. With the way Samsung updates its "flagship" devices, we might see it as late as Q2 of next year :(
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jck_p:
Does that include VZW? I read a rumor somewhere that VZW might skip 5.1.1 for the Note 4, and go straight to M later in the year.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XDAFTW:
Samsung had the S3 from 2012 updated to Kitkat before most 2013 devices.

You also have to remember Verizon is not the fastest at releasing updates.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theandroidguy99:
This is driving me crazy. I got my Note 4 recently used but I didn't expect VWZ not to update it. I really am starting to think I need to move off of Verizon...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpomike13:
Are you new to Verizon?, because Verizon has always been slow to update.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raduque:
With the crap experience I had recently with the Galaxy S 6, and the fact that Samsung has pulled the Note 4 (possibly just going through old stock on most carriers, as VZW, T-Mobile and AT&T all still have it), I think I'm done with Samsung.

Got no reason to keep going with them when they're treating loyal users like me who have converted many over to Samsung devices. Not just phones, I buy Samsung TVs almost exclusively and ONLY buy Samsung SSDs, but both trends may change.

Anybody interested in an almost-new Sammy 75" LED? ;)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] outcasted2003:
Looks most likely that Verizon and Samsung will skip the 5.1.1 update and go straight to 6.0 in the 1st quarter of 2016.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ucsdsig13:
Disappointing, but that makes sense.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HwaA18:
Looks like the update is "imminent", according to this site.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raduque:
I got the same thing from a VZW chat rep AND a phone rep. Take that as you will. Nothing pending for 5.1.1 though.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stueycaster:
It just occurred to me what might be the reason for the delays on updates for the Note 4. Having the Note 5 on a later version could be the only real advantage it has. People don't like the loss of the removable battery and SD support.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raduque:
Yeah, I dumped my S6 to go back to the Note 4. I had a Note 4 with AT&T and I almost wish I had kept it. But if I had kept it, I wouldn't have my Surface Pro 2.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nh97103:
I was wondering the same thing, along with is there any point to actually holding off updating anymore? Really doubting permanent root, at this point.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HwaA18:
I'm not 100% sure, but basically this phones probably never going to be rooted. The only reason to ever hold off on an update is to see what others have to say about the new update. I didnt do this with lollipop and now i'm in that predicament.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theandroidguy99:

I talked to Samsung and Verizon the other day about that. And Samsung says it's been out and clueless as to why we haven't received it and Verizon stated "we don't have a switch to just push out an update we haven't received for the note 4" and I told them how it works and they quickly changed the subject and hung up. My theory is this last update was so screwed up by locking everything up so tight they are unable to push it out. Hell repair assistant fails to have the ability to do it.

My phone is Asus Zenfone 2 (2GB) It.s charger's specifications are - 5.2V , 1.35A. and battery - Li-Po 3000 mAh battery. When charging via the charger, it gets 100% charged.

I recently purchased Ambrane 13000mAH, P1310, Li-Po battery Power Bank with 5 V, 2.1A and 1A output ports.

When charging my Zenfone 2 via Power Bank, the charging stops sharp at 85%. Initially I thought the Power Bank might be faulty, so I drained my phone's battery to 20% and connected it to the 2.1A port again. And surprisingly it charged my phone again to 85% where again it stopped charging.

Now the functionality of the PowerBank says, when the phone is 100% charged, the PowerBank would wait for few seconds and then will automatically shut down (auto disconnect feature). So, I think at 85% my phone signals the Power Bank, that it is fully charged, and now it should stop charging it any further. However, this is just a lame assumption. But neither do I know what changes in the settings do I need to make nor do I know how to get out of this.

A thought - Can the PowerBank be faulty ? ( 1 time charged Power Bank charged my phone 2+ times to 85%, the 3rd time it reached 65%)
