[MENTION=4892003]BeatnikBandit[/MENTION] :

Basically, you're in the wrong forum. You'll need to get support fir the ATT version i337 over in the forum for that model. I used to have one, actually. I sold it on Swappa and got a T-Mo M919 S4 so that I could take advantage of all the AOSP ROMs for the M919. At least as of a year ago, there was no way to unlock the boot loader on the i337 and the only ROMs available for it were basically just skins on the TouchWiz kernel. ROMs, such as they were, used something called SafeStrap. Not sure if things have changed for that device in the year since I gave it up.

You can only use ROMs made for your model. So, even if the locked boot loader weren't an issue with the i337, its hardware is different from the Verizon or T-Mo variants. Using a ROM for a different model will give problems. On the T-Mo M919, there's a bit of an exception in that we're hardware comparable to the international variant, so we can often use ROMs for that one (9505 I think). Oh, and the M919 never got an official lollipop upgrade from T-mo before they gave up on it, so there are some issues with using LolliPop ROMs on the M919.

I'm sorry I can't help you with how to root, but presumably you will find that answer over in the i337 forum.

As for using the i337 on T-Mo, that should be easy enough. Just go in and enter the APN information for T-Mo (probably is in the T-Mo forum somewhere) in place of the ATT APN info and you should be good to go, presuming your phone is SIM-unlocked. Instructions on SIM-unlocking it should be in the ATT i337 forum, if you're not already unlocked. For example, when I got my M919, all I had to do to get it to work on ATT was enter the APN info from ATT, and BOOM I was on the network. I bought a pre-SIM-unlocked phone to avoid having to unlock it myself.

I hope this is at least a little helpful even if it's not all the answers you were hoping for.

[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] darrenpauli:
Hi guys

My Find7 using LVM and Paranoid ROM had rebooting issues (long time issues). I tried to 'fix file system' and it threw an 'encryption failed ' screen on ROM boot. That happened a few tims so I went into TWRP and attempted NANDROID restore.

That failed with error 225. I cannot after removing LVM install ColorOS 1.2.1i or 1.2.7.i . TWRP says it cannot mount '/data'. ColorOS stock recovery fails too.

Now I can't reflash through Fastboot TWRP :(

I think I recall fixing this by flashing Clockwork but I can't find a version for the Find 7.

Any help?

Thanks so much!
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] darrenpauli:
okay as soon as I published, I had moved through mass mounting coloros 1.2.7i using coloros stock recovery

I flashed and it worked.

Hours of failure prior to this.

Thanks, myself.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] darrenpauli:
For anyone who can't flash recovery and is stuck do this

install fastboot. Google it.

download colorOS 1.2.7i and extract the zip to say the folder FIX

download this oppo find7 stock recovery to FIX http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=00219433653419942379 or use TWRP in its place (change the recovery.img name to whatever your twrp file is called.)

hold shift + right click (windows) in FIX and click open command prompt here

I have been running faria's WM6 (real thing) ROM for a couple of months now on my 8125 G4. The phone is not unlocked.

In the event that I want to send my phone in to Cingular for replacement under warranty, how can I put it back to a factory state? Can someone confirm that it's safe to use the ROM flash from the HTC website? Or is there a better process to use?

FYI - I have searched the forums for this and have come up empty.
[G4] starkwong:
Cingular has factory ROM, you should use that.

http://www.htcamerica.net/support/8125/software-downloads.html

As soon as you are using the original RUU with the download, you won't brick your Wizard because the RUU is CID protected so it will not flash if it is not for your 8125.
[Android Auto General] Grims:
It seems none of the tech sites have done any real reviews these things, which makes them hard to compare.

First it looks like its between Kenwood and Pioneer. Are there any big advantages to either one? I read a comment from someone who said the kenwoods had faster cpus and dedicated GPS antennas which helped a lot with Android Auto performance and downtown GPS locks. Any truth to that?

Then I'd need to decide on a sub model. It looks like the only difference between the Kenwoods is aptx? Currently the 970 is 200 cheaper than the 990. Does aptx have any place when using Android Auto or is it just for base features?

The top of the line Pioneer has a capactive display, but is also a thousand dollars. Does anyone know if it is worth it? Does it perform any better than its siblings?

I'd also like to have a mic for voice commands and calls and add a backup camera. I will more than likely use a dedicated nexus 5 plugged in all the time. Will it automatically start with out intervention with the car?
[Android Auto General] mikereidis:
I'm not familar with the Kenwoods, but I'm happy with my Pioneer 4100NEX.

Pioneer put out an Android Auto compatible headunit I think 3-4 months before Kenwood (or anyone else) released any.

This IMO is likely due to the fact that Pioneer HUs run Android, AND they have a good relationship with Google. These are good reasons to consider Pioneer devices.
[Android Auto General] krcsimple:
Kenwood DDX9702S owner here.

Feel free to ask any questions.
[Android Auto General] mikereidis:
Working well ?

Any problems or regrets ?
[Android Auto General] krcsimple:
Works perfect.

No problems thus far, no regrets.

Basic radio on the unit works well, and the Android Auto experience has been great too. Have only experienced a few minor problems with the Android Auto app itself, which have seemed to have been resolved with updates over time.

hey all

this is vary inersting with the samsung Tab S2 about wish android version you will get out of the box when you go pick up yours

i am planing on picking up the samsung tab S2 but am getting the LTE tablet

here is what i have noted so far

with verizon samsung tab S2 it comes with android 5.1.1

http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-tab/SM-T817VZWAVZW

the AT&T samsung tab S2 comes with android 5.1

http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-tab/SM-T817AZKAATT

but the wi-if samsung Tab S2 olny comes with android 5.0.2

http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-tab/SM-T810NZWEXAR

so if you want the most up too date android go with verizon or AT&T LTE
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] ashyx:
And if you want a locked bootloader. ;)
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Deathman20:
Just want to point out they do have an update officially from Samsung out to go to 5.1.1 on the US WiFi version.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] user68734:
Is the bootloader locked on the Verizon Galaxy Tab S2?
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] BigBot96:
Every modern device from Verizon has a locked bootloader.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] ajax1d:
Does the T-Mobile Galaxy Tab S2 come with Android 5.1.1 and does it have a locked bootloader?

Rogers Canada S2

Mine came with build LMY47X.T817WVLU1AOH2 android 5.1.1
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] mojoehand:
I just bought an S2 WiFi 9.7" from Best Buy earlier this evening (25 Sep). Out of the box it had 5.1.1 on it.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Gray44:
I think other regions will have to wait some more, I heard there is an update ready to mitigate the stagefright vulnerability, but it's still 5.0.2
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] kms108:
I also had a update when I purchased mine 2 weeks ago, but it was only a minor one, still 5.02
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] jthspace:
I have a UK 9.7"and it is on 5.0.2. No software update available at present.

[Galaxy Tab S2 General] slumerican35:
Mine came

Out of the box with 5.1.1 att version 4g lte. Sm-g817a. Trying to find a recovery and root method anyone else with any luck. Also did this model come with the bootloader locked. Just got mine today
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] jthspace:
I think you are out of luck - it looks like only WiFi models can be rooted as bootloader locked on other models. Check out the section on rooting in this S2 section. You may have to wait awhile.

Unlocked bootloader but no official update for me (I've rooted my tab) :p
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] jazzmachine:
I just got my 817T yesterday at T-Mobile, rocking 5.1.1 AOG8. Last night however, the Tab told me that an update was available. I haven't taken it yet because I didn't want to risk messing up the root process. I actually just got myself some root access 2 mins ago (I beleive a "woo hoo!!" is in order...) and I still have the notification for the update. I'd like to check out a changelog... just thought it was interesting for a Tmo device to be getting fast updates and such... Meanwhile my Note 4 is still on 5.0.1, ya know, unlike

every

other carrier :confused:
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Fritzy62:
2 810's (one for my wife, one for myself); both on 5.0.2 out of the box, no update to 5.1.1 in sight. Maybe Samsung skips 5.1.1 in our part of the world and goes straight to "M". ;)
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] mparmpas122321:
Very unlikely.. :P
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] :
I'd say pretty good chance, my Galaxy S6 went from 5.02 to 6 today although I did sign up for beta program. In UK I'm still on 5.02 on my Tab S2, think the stock firmwares for 5.11 on here are for the US version so I'll wait patiently....
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] danyvw:
Bought my SM-T810 three days ago with 5.02 stock, in less than 5 minutes got 5.11 update. Now is rooted thanks to [MENTION=4899305]ashyx[/MENTION] permissive kernel.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Depressed T.Bear:
Well my T810 (german version) came with 5.0.2 out of the box. No update in sight, at least stagefright bug is fixed.

I dont think that there will be a direct skip to "M"... It's Samsung! They'll put more effort in developing the next gen phones and tablets instead of maintaining their actual "top device". Sad but true :/

Don't get me wrong I'm sure there'll be the upgrade... but not anytime soon.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] FranzDages:
I picked up the B&N Nook version yesterday. Came with 5.1.1 don't know if bootloader unlocked or not. Haven't checked.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] juggaknot77:
I got the nook version with 5.0.2, rooted it, got rid of the nook crap, deblaoted it hell out of it and now it's perfect!
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Fritzy62:
One can always dream.... The moment there is a reasonable stable CM available I'll at least have more control over updates and not depend on Samsung anymore...
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Pick_A_Name:
I bought an 810 two days before Thanksgiving from Best Buy and it came with 5.1.1. I broke the screen so I just got another one from Newegg.com and it came with 5.0.2. It must have been sitting in a warehouse for a while.

Is it possible to flash the American 5.1.1 version for my S2 9,7" in Germany?

We are still on 5.0.2 and I don't see an update for the next two month :(

I have the DBT version and this is on 5.0.2 since 07.10.2015 and the XAR and XAC are on 5.1.1 since the 30.08.2015.

Are there big difference between my version and your?
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Lakino:
My T710 (S2 8" wifi only) that I ordered from jet . com arrived today. Straight out of the box it was 5.1.1

AFAIK only the LTE models are sold in Germany, T[7|8]15, not T[7|8]10, so I wouldn't do it if I were you.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Lexuzz89:
The WiFi edition were sold in Germany, too. But I will wait and hope that the 5.1.1 comes this or next month to us..
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] nadav74:
I hope M comes to us next month... :p
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] 5[Strogino]:
Yes, it is possible to change region. But flashing 5.1.1 onto 5.0.2 is one-way process, cause bootloader will update

There is no big difference between 5.0.2 and 5.1.1. So, it's better to wait 6.0 :)
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Lexuzz89:
We Germans can dream about that :D maybe next year xD

Or they skip the 5.1.1 but I don't think so :P
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Fritzy62:
Incorrect. The 810 is sold in Germany as well. For a 710 you have to go across the border to Netherlands or Belgium. I've only seen the LTE version of the 7 being sold in Germany for some strange reason.

Hi guys,

It looks here are the specialists I'm looking for to get some answers regarding my T710 Tab. My tablet is designed for HK market although I'm using it in another region. Android version is 5.0.2. (LRX22G.T710ZSU2AOJ2).

Can anyone tell me if this is a stock ROM or custom ROM?

There are no upgrades available neither via OTA or Smart Switch, do you know when the 5.1.1 will come on HK region?

Is this region / tablet supposed to received Marshmallow?

Sorry for all these question but I'm new to tech stuff and this tablet seems to have everything I want from such a device but I want to know if it was a good investment overall.

Thanks in advance for your answers.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Shofar1:
As far as I know 5.0.2 is the latest upgrade. I think it is more security patches than anything else.

S2 is supposed to get Marshmallow in May, I doubt we will get "N"

shofar
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] anda_mj:
Thx for your reply. Is Marshmallow scheduled for all regions? I don't even have 5.1 yet ...
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] lu99ke:
US and Canada have 5.1.1... Rest of the world ( ie the parts of the world that actually matter!! ;)) are still on 5.0.2... I tried flashing the Canada 5.1.1 and it worked Ok except for some reason it could not see certain WiFi networks.... One of which was my work one.... Could not figure that out... So I just went back to the Australian version of 5.0.2 and it went back to working fine..
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] zerojay:
Other parts of the world have more wifi channels that aren't allowed in North America. So I wouldn't be surprised that your work wifi might be on channel 13. There's a way of modding to allow the extra channels but I don't know about how it's done on these tablets.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] lu99ke:
I did not know that! Makes perfect sense...

thanks muchly!

[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Giuskiller:
I'm using a Sm-T715 (LTE+WIFI version) and it comes with 5.0.2. I got an update but it's still on 5.0.2. I guess it's not Samsung priority to update all devices...as i've seen sm t815 model have been updated to Android 6. I've never received android 5.1.1 . . . Disappointed
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Pick_A_Name:
I got it recently. Check to see if you can get it now. It's smaller than lollipop.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Scritter:
I just picked up a S2 8" SM-T713 from Best Buy, it came stock with 6.01. ($249.00!)
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] lewmur:
IMO, you have it backwards. The LTE models are tied to specific co.s and you have to wait for them to update their ROMs. But with Wifi only models, it makes no difference what ROM is on the tablet when you buy it. It will immediately update OTA to the latest ROM from Samsung as soon as you start using it. MM 6.0.1 is available for just about every T710 and T810 sold.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Fluffbutt:
My 9.7" with the snappy cpu came with 601 already in.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] lewmur:
If you bought it new, I would expect it to have 6.0.1. But even if you buy a used one on eBay, it will update right away OTA to 6.0.1, if it is wifi. But if it is LTE, it will only update to what the phone co. is using. And they normally lag way behind Samsung.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] YrrchSebor:
I was lucky to get the global/unlocked/carrier-less LTE model. Samsung puts out updates for many countries constantly, I already Odined the latest with the December security updates on it. The coolest thing is that it works 100% as a huge phone, I think because the T-Mobile network doesn't recognize the IMEI, so doesn't know that it isn't a regular phone. I guess wifi could be an issue but I haven't had any problems with it. Maybe I haven't had access to a 5gz network? But it's true that the carrier models are the worst with updates! And development usually too.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] lewmur:
I really don't have major objections to using ODIN to get "the latest and greatest ROM". I've done it several times. I just don't think the Dec update offers enough to warrant the hassle and chancing losing upper wifi channels. One of those channels is used by my favorite football watching Pub.;);)

If you go to /Setup/About Device/Download Updates manually, it should install 6.0.1
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Fluffbutt:
That's sad - not only do they lock the phone side of it to their ways... they lock the android, non-phone side too?

Good reason to not sign up for any lock-in "deals"!

Just had a 368 Mb update, Android version is the same, just a security update, I think.

I bought an T715 that was EE branded and stuck on 5.0.2. I did some homework and found it could be flashed with official Samsung firmware that took it up to 6.0.1. :victory:

[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Masteryates:
Exactly. Samsung firmware is much better than the bloated carrier crap. :cool:
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] lewmur:
You're sticking with an old version of Android because you like the theme? There are dozen of themes available for ANY version. Just go to the Play Store and pick one!!!:confused::confused:
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] messi2050:
from my experience on the j7 lollipop has a better battery life than samsung mm , i personally prefer lp over mm on samsung devices although there is no theme store on the tab s2 i think u are talking about launchers which does not change the ui.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Masteryates:
Really surprised your getting better battery life in Lollipop than Marshmallow. On a phone, things maybe similar but for a tablet, (where you may have larger periods of inactivity,) I would have thought missing doze on Lollipop would be a big miss. :confused:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] whymoo:
Background:

I love t-mobile and don't wish them harm but I have been having some problems with how fast my 4g data disappears. I am on a grandfather plan that got upgraded. For one extra buck I could have 30 MB of data plus Music Freedom. Despite trying a bunch of firewall's and data restrictions and doing nothing but listening to Spotify the data never lasts more than a few days. And then it's edge speeds which make listening to spotify even on the lowest setting a buffering nightmare.

Question:

How do Increase the amount of data by just a little (I only need like a extra 100 MB) without paying a ridicules $50 a month?

Yea, because no one will notice.... Oh and yes this is doable, thats why the boys over on Verizon and ATT forums could give a rats ass about the amount of data they get, they have the ROMS that exploit the caps.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] painedglass:
Yep, lets defraud T-Mobile.....pure genius, while we're at it, lets go down the street and steal the neighbors 4K television. I wouldnt blame them for locking down their phones like fort knox for this reason alone. Look at it like this, If I own a store and people are shoplifting, I pass the extra costs due to lost merchandise and hiring loss prevention personnel to my customers, my customers then whine about the high cost of buying from me and my clientel numbers go in the tank. Dont do it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] pandacookie:
That's exactly what I was getting at. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] sci2:
How little could you possibly be paying that $30 is too much? Also, music streaming should not count towards your data cap on Tmo. I'd call them rather than trying to defraud them. Especially since T-Mobile alone is basically the reason why carriers are scrambling to reduce just how much they screw us. They've been a huge boon to the consumer in the past couple of years.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] whymoo:
Are you being sarcastic or is this for realz?

Maybe you could give me a link to one of these threads.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] whymoo:
Okay I wouldn't be stealing data. T-mobile doesn't spend even a extra $0.000000001 if I use Edge speeds or lte. Only other t-mobile customers speed would be effected. But not where I live, I live in West Lebanon NH which only got lte a couple months ago, the closest tmobile store is 30 miles away. I know a lot of people in my town and what carrier they have and I am the only one with tmobile. There is so much bandwidth being unused it's kind of sad.
