Thanks dottat, you pointed me in the right direction.

vol up and power made it reboot without the 1 minute wait, so I tried a couple of other combinations and might be a timing thing also, so when I waited for half a minute and then pressed vol up + vol down and power simultaneously for just an instant, it took me to recovery menu. Thanks :)

Hey gang-

Just wanted to drop a note that i'm moving on. As such, I have requested my threads to be closed as I won't be around to support them much anymore. Any download links (if applicable) will also be removed shortly as well.

Thanks and peace out.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andu86:
I want to ask you, what is the best stock rom that you have used so far, from wich country or region.

I currently use South East Europe - COC2 and my operator is Orange Romania.

i want to change my current firmware because i have battery drain when using the phone and i don't know what to choose.

Can you please answer with the name of the rom that you are using and the current operator

Thank you
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RuffBuster:
On i9195 LTE I'm running COC2 but scStock debloated ROM with SilviuMik custom kernel latest v4. And I find this to be great on battery here in the UK using the COC2 modem. I use Xposed also with PowerNap/Amplify/Greenify. My over night standby usually averages at 5% over 8 hours and SOT usually around 4 and half hours.

I'm not sure where else to post this and I'm having trouble finding anyone with similar issues over search! So I don't know if it's a Preview 3 bug or if I'm going crazy.

Straight to it - my text messages are disappearing randomly. I had an entire text conversation last night using Hangouts and today those messages are all gone. I had a new text this morning that I could see when first opening Hangouts in the preview spot, but clicking on the conversation shows my last sent message from yesterday at 4pm. Nothing after that. Messenger app shows nothing past that either.

Initially I had dirty flashed Preview 3 over Preview 2 and had this exact same issue right away, but I wiped and clean installed Preview 3 the same day and haven't had a problem until today. I also noticed if I switch my default app to Messenger, I can't send any messages. It just immediately tells me 'touch to resend' and it doesn't even try to send. Hangouts messages go through just fine but they are still disappearing right after I send one, even.

Pushbullet was doing the exact same thing with disappearing texts previously but they were all still there on the phone so I thought maybe that was messing with me, but I have since uninstalled it and the issue is persisting. Rebooting my phone makes no change.

I'm having the same issue on my Nexus 6. Only on Android M DP3, too. Also, I can't send SMS messages either. I hope there's an easy temporary fix until Google fixes it.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steauastelelor:
Same

I have the exact same issue... I tried clearing hangouts and messenger cache and data, still not working... I'm not sure if a factory reset would do it.. has anyone tried that? :(
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kieran_bondflashy:
I'm having the exact same issues, the only way I have been able to fix it is by using texted sms Google needs to get this sorted asap
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ben36:
I haven't had any issues. Are you flashing zip versions or fastboot img's?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kieran_bondflashy:
I updated via ota from stock dev preview 2
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ben36:
Strange. I just dirty flashed the img files through fastboot over p2 and have had no issues whatever
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bielinsk:
I have had the same issues. I can see the text in pre-view, but then it's gone.

Only way for me to get texting working again was to disable both Messenger and Hangouts and loaded another SMS app (textra)

Now my texts are reliable again.

There are reports on the Hangout forums that Google is working on the issue.

Yesterday received some texts which I later noticed weren't in my list of messages. Only noticed the missing texts when a text I was trying to send was repeatedly failing..

I also updated OTA from dev preview 2, Nexus 5.

Will try a third party app temporarily...

SMS Fix

Reboot to safe mode and then send yourself an sms. After rebooting to normal sms should work correctly.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rpr69:
That seems to work, even though in safe mode I don't have access to a messaging app (neither Hangouts or Messenger are available), I sent one to myself, and then rebooted, and now Messenger seems to work. Fingers crossed that it keeps working. Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bielinsk:
That link is nor viable. How do I reboot to safe mode?

---------- Post added at 02:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:32 PM ----------

Thank you google.

Use safe mode to find problem apps

Make sure your device's screen is on, then press & hold the Power button.

In the box that opens, touch & hold Power off.

You'll see a “Reboot to safe mode” box. Touch OK.

Your device will start up in safe mode. Try using your device normally.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheInVisibleGoD:
Pushbullet might be the issue

Found this issue this morning with my Nexus 5 with Android 6.0 preview 3...

After a quick search, found someone saying that uninstalling Pushbullet and restarting the phone would fix it, and it did for me actually!

If you guys have Pushbullet installed, give it a try. Hopefully Pushbullet will fix it soon! ;)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dustymuckaroo:
I just disabled the SMS push feature in Pushbullet and got the same result. Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bottleface:
YAY, I can see my texts again!

Awesome, turning off SMS syncing also fixed the issue for me. Wow I really hope pushbullet fixes this before Marshmallow get released.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mb9023:
Did you suddenly receive messages you were missing or did it just allow new messages to be visible again?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bottleface:
It just allowed new messages to be visible, I didn't get back any of the old texts that had been lost.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bielinsk:
Good call. Yep looks like Pushbullet was the problem, not hangouts.

Uninstalled and loaded up Mighty Text. Hangouts working fine so far.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aavan:
I had to deactivate Pushbullet SMS sync and send myself an SMS while in safe mode.

Jeez, I'm wondering how many SMS I didn't receive... that's really bad !
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] madsquabbles:
it's the same from the note 4. y

you'll need to call to get your MSL first. going through the automated prompts took longer than getting the MSL from the CSR (who was extremely nice BTW).

after that follow the instructions here: http://xdaforums.com/note-4-sprint/general/lollipop-hotspot-root-flashing-t3048163

this'll hold me over until we get root and hopefully some dev here. seems ours has the OEM unlock in dev settings. dunno if that means anything, but hope that it means unlocking the bootloader is easy.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] sml2004:
Worked for me thanks. Not sure why to root yet. Damn thing is nice. And the fingerprint wow
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] madsquabbles:
yep first phone with a fingerprint reader and I'm impressed. it's almost a must have now!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] sml2004:
And got the MSL easy from the chat
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] almony8:
Worked awesome. Thanks for the heads up
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] FreddyFredFred:
What did you tell them you need it for? I keep trying and they keep denying me.

Thanks.

never mind.... I simply told them I like to mod my phone and needed the number for access to certain menu's and they gave it to me without problem.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] sml2004:
I need it cause im a developer. For programming reasons
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] ebs512:
If you have a sprint 64gb try clicking view instead of edit after ##3282# should let you edit apn without being grayed out (at least it worked on mine) not tested on 32gb note 5
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] sheryip:
I tried 5 times with the online chat and got deny each time:(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] FreddyFredFred:
Is your phone leased or easy pay? I understand it is harder to get if it is.

Did you tell them you were a developer and needed it for that?

Good luck!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] bassquake04:
I was told "Agent : The MSl will be displayed and can be requested if you decide to pay the End of Lease purchase amount for your phone by the end of your 24 months lease." because my line has a leased agreement on it but I used another line to upgrade and did a 2yr agreement on that line and was told "Agent : Alright, the phone was upgraded at a discounted price in exchange for a two year agreement. And the MSL of the phone will be accessible and can be requested as soon as the 2 year contract agreement has been completed on 8/20/2017" Soooooo.....I'm gonna have to work some "developer" magic on another agent later and see what happens.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] sheryip:
after 8 tries they finally gave it to me. every time i did mention i was a developer

but i couldnt get the hotspot working. keep saying i dont have a hotspot plan
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] ebs512:
You should have told them you were having trouble with LTE, dont ever tell them what you really need it for you are likely to bring this to their attention to patch it [emoji35]
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] sheryip:
I never told them what I was using it for. Just said I'm a developer that needs it for programming.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] sml2004:
Im on a lease plan and I got it the first time. But I do have 9 lines. Lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] bassquake04:
Got 8 lines. 6 of which are leased. I'll give it another go tomorrow.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] stafly17:
I work for sprint.... just go into a corporate store and ask em. They will tell you. For extra confidence tell them you are doing a RTN reset. Guaranteed it will work
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] GAPO:
MSL can also be found on your original contract/activation paperwork.

EDIT: I am wrong, no it cannot. But, after reading some other threads on xda, it seems you just have to keep peestering sprint until you get someone cool.

It took me 1 phone call and 2 live chats but I got my MSL. Hotspot works.

Basically when the second dude on the livechat said I couldn't have it I said my GPS wasn't getting a lock, I was doing a reset, and needed my MSL to do it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] ebs512:
So if you work for Sprint tell me why my Data menu is editable in view mode (not complaining) but do I have a special version or something (Sprint Note 5 64gb)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] fsunoles101:
The MSL number is on my sprint activation paperwork. I did the best buy deal. When i looked on the paperwork it is not called msl. It was referred to as master lock code. Used it today and got hotspot working.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] jmy72:
But, not to accidently put us back on track of the topic or anything, just curious. Will this method, still flag that you are tethering without a plan? It would be useless to do it, only to be charged for it anyways.

didn't even need to directly say anything. put in box that i needed my 6 digit msl before starting chat. agent got on and gave it to me and i left!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] madsquabbles:
native tethering really sucks on this device. i never gotten so many disconnects on any device between verizon and sprint. i'm not talking about weak signals but disconnecting when it's got a weak signal and having to reactivate it. all my other phones will just hold tethering on until i get a good signal so i don't have to constantly activate, get deactivated, activate, deactivate tethering. this is in areas with good enough signal to browse web on the phone on lte, just weak and always in the same city on the same mile markers.

really considering reactivating my note 2.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] musclehead84:
Yes. If u get the phone through Best buy it's on the activation report. Most of the time it's not printed out just ask the rep to print it for you. It's the number under master lock code is the msl number.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] Chucklez:
I just did the Sprint Live chat and in the request before the chat put, "Need MSL # for a RTN reset on my device for the phone line XXX-XXX-XXX" and I got it with no fuss. The hotspot also worked like a charm too!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] graffix31:
am i the only one who can tether out of the box? i turned it on, connected anther device and it all worked. am i missing something. My msl was on my bestbuy slip as well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] TweetyBear:
With the tether without root, I'm constantly getting the if WiFi is turned on, Hotspot will disconnect message. Is this common? If so, I can live with it for free tether ☺

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] graffix31:

Just wanted to say this worked great for me. Sprint chat gave me my MSL first try saying I needed an RTN reset.

And a quick test at the house with terrible 3g data that I need to walk outside to even use, and my girlfriends phone connected, it loaded the pages slowly, but surely........Thanks for this OP as I was missing the hotspot feature greatly since my upgrade!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] macario1975:
Sprint chat wouldn't give me msl and when i called they wouldn't give me msl,both times they told me it was because I'm leasing my phone, i called a corporate sprint store and they told me they can give me my msl but i have to go into the store, that's how i got my msl and it's working on my note 5,thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] Uniquebarbee:
If anyone can help me get my MSL that would be great I tried Sprint Chat 3xs and no go I don't want to root just for hotspot. Any suggestions I have GTools but again I am not rooted

Edit---Nvm I was able to get it with the help of a friend thanks again :D:good:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] Stank0:
Well color me impressed! The native hotspot was the only thing I was considering root for on this Knox BS ridden device. Now I don't have to! Yaay!!!

No. Just edit those fields and you're good to go. Make sure you have your msl code.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] The:Dude:
confirmed working on new Note 5 on OJ6 purchased this afternoon.. I also have an update to OK3 downloaded but don't want to install it yet until somebody can say the workaround works lol..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] coolhandz:
ok3 problem

So, I have the OK3 firmware and while it lets me toggle the bluetooth and usb(when connected) tethering options, I get no internet access messages on my Win 10 laptop.

Not sure what is going on here. I restarted both devices and still a no-go.

EDIT:: ok, so i downloaded a free tethering app called "SVTP - Lite" and it is working. Not sure if I am doing something else wrong, but with the app, it is working.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] The:Dude:
Glad to hear you got your issue worked out.. Wife got tired of seeing the message about software update and okayed it lol.. After it installed the hotspot was still working fine on ok3.. So confirmed there!

Does that SVTP app add a toggle to the homescreen or notification bar?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] coolhandz:
No it doesn't add a toggle. Plus the free version only lets you use it for 5 minutes. I had play store credit so i sprung for it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] bigboose1234:
Does anyone else have problems with picture mail after they get hotspot working?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] The:Dude:
No, picture messaging works for me..

Any news on the deactivating hotspot issue with every call? I mean I installed power toggles so it's not difficult to start it again, but it is dammed annoying to have to close that message every single time..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] RayTrue04:
It's not an issue really. That's how all Samsung phones handle no data while on call when running hotspot. There's no data connection so it turns off. It's built into the system that way. Very annoying as other manufacturers like LG don't do this..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] The:Dude:
I understand all that, and I can deal with it without grouching too much lol.. Even though my coworker's note 3 keeps the hotspot (and even internet connection) active while he's talking on his phone.. But what I don't like is that huge error I have to confirm before I can even answer the call coming in..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] RayTrue04:
That's because the Note 3 is not a tri-band device and you can do call n data while on 4G. Unfortunately we lost that function for faster speeds and better battery life ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] The:Dude:
Personally I'd rather have a little slower speeds and the ability to surf on my phone while the wife is talking on the phone lol.. But I did find an app called MacroDroid that let me set up a trigger for when a phone call ends it restarts the hotspot automatically.. Woohoo! Now just gotta find a way to get rid of that hotspot error dialog..
