[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LavaByte:
Alright so I am a newbie with this stuff so that's why I don't understand these simple things.

- I rooted my Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 10.1" (SM-T530NU) through odin, was the bootloader unlocked in the process to make it possible or did it not require the unlocking of the bootloader. OR was it unlocked from the start perhaps?

- (Blisspop) It says that I have to unlock my bootloader, based on the answer to the question above | how can I unlock it OR am I fine and I can download it? |
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
I have a SM-T530NU, as long as you were on lollipop when you rooted you're fine. I've been using blisspop for a while now

Do you need to get GAPPS installed?

If so can you link me to the thread?

Thanks! :D

Also is it supposed to take forever to download on my tablet..? Because its downloading very slowly.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
Use this gapps, I personally prefer nano but any variant should work. The download takes a while since the server is based in Germany and we're not in Germany (I'm assuming you're not in Germany since you have the T530NU, a North American model)

16GB version, will include 16GB external SD card. Anyone interested? It is in very good condition, no scratches or dings. Content removed.

I like the phone, especially when comparing to an iPhone 5S/5C/5 and the Nexus 5 but the one thing that bugs me the most is that the software kills apps aggressively (eg. try running Fallout Shelter, then a couple of 4 or 5 other apps, and then run Fallout Shelter again. It has to reload the entire app!)

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mastermarkofroms:
I was wondering if anyone knows of plans on porting Ubuntu touch to the Zenfone 2 as it has an Intel chip and would be ideal for running Ubuntu also what do you at XDA think about it and whether or not it should be ported over?

I have used Ubuntu touch preview in the past on a nexus 5 but I think the Zenfone 2 might have great support for Ubuntu touch including the 4 gb ram and that intel chip.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr_gourav2000:
No whatsapp bro.

Who buy it?
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mastermarkofroms:
Eh I don't use whatsapp so it really wouldn't bother me
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr_gourav2000:
But we use as main communication local.

So we need it.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mastermarkofroms:
Well I mean Ubuntu touch has there own apps every OS/ROM is different so you might use whatsapp on android yet there might be something Else on a ubuntu touch device thats similar.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr_gourav2000:
Yes

Similar apps available at Ubuntu store.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mastermarkofroms:
Well I think Ubuntu touch would be an amazing port and would be an amazing ROM on the zenfone 2 4gb version then again not sure how many users on xda are but I am also a huge Linux fan.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lykos:
I would love to test out Ubuntu Touch on our Zenfone. So far I haven't felt the need to move from stock after debloating it.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mastermarkofroms:
Most people havent but I mean the Intel cpu would be perfect for Ubuntu touch, it would also be interesting to see how the zenfone 2 preforms with the ubuntu touch on it.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lykos:
Oh definitely! I would love to play around with Ubuntu Touch on our phone. :good::highfive:
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mastermarkofroms:

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blazzer12:
Someone should complete "Multiboot project for zenfone 2" then we can dual boot other ROMS along with Android. That would be fun and many people including me would use it. Entirely leaving the Android ecosystem is hard.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ruleh:
I think ubuntu touch is still based on 4.4.2. (<-- I hope I am wrong on this.)

This might be a problem because the lowest our zenfone gets is ~5.0.

So there will be a few bits and pieces that won't work correctly.

Also ubuntu touch seems to be arm focused, making it a bit harder to port.

There are also some issues with the (cm13) kernel. (cgroups/app armor/where is logger.c?)

However this does mean it is impossible, it is just a bit harder than one would expect.

I have tried porting it myself but failed several times.

Next try: once I get libhybris working.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LetsRoot:
With that apart from ubuntu touch, you could also make a port of sailfishos.

PS: So do a topic posting the progress of the port?
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ruleh:
I totally forgot about sailfishos.

...which is weird because I was lurking around the mer-hybris repos for quite some time now.

I am downloading the sources right now.

Let's see how far it gets...

I'm looking for a port of these 2 operating systems for zenfone 2 which I bought it to have as a "linux handheld" but I still have not seen anything more than a simple chroot in android.

Besides that, I'm also waiting for someone to make a port of the latest version of linux (next to other things to make it a distro) to zenfone 2.

Please, if you have the knowledge of how to do it, do a favor to people to do it and publish it, I know it costs but if I would have the knowledge I would do it.

[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leoleotheiii:
So after the denim update, AWS (aka 1700/2100 or LTE Band 4) support for the icon(929) became available, and because of this I purchased the Icon and I love it. However I live in Canada and have a month to month plan with Mobilicity. I guess I didn't do my research well enough (I'd like to think the internet was a bit misleading but....i guess its matter of perspective). Mobilicity solely rely on the AWS band frequency. They don't offer LTE but instead use HSPA . I knew that already but I figured that since AWS was supported I could receive HSPA signal over the 4G radio but nope I was wrong.

So I guess there are enough distinct differences between HSPA on AWS and LTE on AWS enough for them to be not cross compatible? Is this a hardware "issue" or a firmware/software one that I could do something about? Is it possible to enable 2G/3G/HSPA over the 4G radio? Or maybe I can get it to work by setting the APN correctly? I looked at some phones specs over on GSMArena which do offer HSPA + LTE support over AWS, I really want to say that it seems unlikely that 2 or more pieces of hardware are required to offer 2 services on what is essentially the same frequency.
[LG G Flex 2] winkyeye:
Is there any way to reset the AT&T software update 24 hour timer? I received a software update earlier today but I forgot to remove root prior to updating and the update failed. I managed to unroot but after advancing the date manually by 1 day, I am no longer picking up the update so I set my phone to October and still the same issue. Now it says I have to wait 1200 or so hours before rechecking so I'm wondering if there is any way to reset this timer. I've tried clearing data for software update, update center, and download manager in app settings without any luck.

Thanks

[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] bitedge:
I have no mobile data, not even the little up and down arrows or letters next to the sims signal bars show up.

I have tried all the troubleshooting and different settings for prefered network type, airplane mode is off, mobile data is on with no limits, no power saving modes are on. Phone is dual sim so I have tried on both sims and tried disabling the other sim and changing the sim slots, both sims are loaded with data credit that works in other android devices. Wifi works fine. Factory reset does not help.

There is only one trouble shooting thing I can't try. When I select settings > more > mobile networks > access point names it says

"Access Point Name settings are not available for this user"

Perhaps if I could set APN I could get mobile data. How can I do that or how can I try to get mobile data to work?

Phone is E2363 with build 26.1.B.2.102 Thanks if you can help
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] AndyPhoenix9879:
Try clicking on the plus sign and add in the operator name (mine is DST in my country) and followed with a 'dot' then internet in the Mobile network settings.

Example for me: DST.internet

You may also want to try with .WAP

Example for me again: DST.WAP

I left mine like that and I seemed to have gotten the Mobile data to work. But my case was different, I have the up and down arrows when Mobile data is turned on, just couldn't access the Web.

If adding another APN fails, flash ftf. Seems like the last resort.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] bitedge:
There is no plus sign, just the text

"Access Point Name settings are not available for this user"
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] AndyPhoenix9879:
Oww.. Sorry.:eek:

I guess you can try reflashing the ROM? :silly::confused:

From what I have google searched, it has something to do with com.android.providers.telephony and we can't do anything about that without root so reflashing is the only option.

EDIT: Have you tried going around with the Service Providers stuff and rebooting? Idk might as well give that a try

They sell UK versions so not sure how that would go down with the frequencies you use in China etc. and it would come with a UK style charger.

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pickabass:
Hi, so I've had my Galaxy S6 and the fingerprint sensor has always worked fine. Yesterday it worked great all day long at work, then when I got home, it wouldn't work at all. I rebooted and still it wouldn't work, I cleared cache and data, did the hardware test, and it passed. It still didn't work, so I erased the fingerprints, and retrained my right thumbprint only. Now it seems to unlock with any finger of anybody! As long as they touch lightly, it unlocks about 90 percent of the time. I haven't really added anything new to the phone, so I don't think that's the problem. I'm wondering if anyone else has tried using other fingers and been able to unlock their phones. This isn't great for security...
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trekage:
I was having problems with my S6 Edge and was told to go to Rogers (Canadian Carrier) to get a tune up (worker tests out your phone to see if the problem is software or hardware related) before I could get a replacement. Well of course the worker had no idea what he was doing and just kept unplugging and plugging in my phone to his computer and attempting to swipe to unlock my phone like an iPhone. I told him it had a fingerprint registered and he proceeded with trying to unlock the phone with his finger, and to my surprise it worked. I actually decided to go around and try to get friends and family to unlock my phone using their finger but it never seemed to work. I'm actually really worried now that if my phone gets stolen, whoever managed to steal it is able to unlock my phone, especially if I have Samsung Pay enabled.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] otariq:
That's weird but you can always remote wipe your phone using Android device manager
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pickabass:
It seems to work every time for any finger as long as it's a really quick light tap. I think these sensors can't be trusted. Galaxy S6 is definitely not as secure as everyone has been lead to believe.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] juvenile43:
I know i may get some slack for this post but is it realistically possible that someone could find a root method that doesnt trip knox. My last device was a note 3 so i havent followed whether the s5, note 4 or s6 have acheived this. I like the idea of samsung pay (even though im in the beta and it doesnt work with my car) and im hoping it works with my card once the app is public. I cant live with a phone that cant run a custom rom but if i at least have root i feel like i could manage. So am i just being stupid and say screw samsung pay or is their a real possiblity that someone could find root without the knox trip.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] Goddly:
Would be nice, but. Samsung pay isn't working for me on any card I have. So I'm about to pull the trigger on Knox , and get new recovery and flash deodex rom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] travisw0204:
It only works for Bank of America or US Bank cards now I believe although there is support for Amex, Visa and Mastercard. They will probably be up and running once Samsung Pay is officially launched on the 28th. I can tell you this. Samsung Pay is a battery hog. It runs all the time unlike Google Wallet that you open when you need it. And the way you unlock your phone is tied into Samsung Pay. For example, if you select fingerprint scanner for Samsung Pay it automatically becomes the lockscreen default to unlock the phone. So if you want a pattern to unlock your phone you have to change it in Samsung Pay to unlock the device. You can't have both. Well at least when I tried you couldn't. LoL
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] bobturismo:
I dont think enough devs have a note 5, i would guess something may come out of another phone maybe and translate over. I'm in the same boat, my n3 was rooted right away once I was convinced sprint wasnt going to deny a warranty claim over knox. I'm kinda holding out for s pay, but if it sounds like a bunch of brain damage....

Actually just thought of something, I use drive through and eat at bars and restaurants a lot, not keen on handing my phone to someone, probably gonna pass on s pay...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] TheCyberpunk:
check out king root. I've recently seen a post and it claims to not trip Knox.

You may want to search xda.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] juvenile43:
That would be amazing. Thanks for the heads up. I looked through a couple pages of the kingroot main thread and couldnt find anything. Will keep searching.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] juvenile43:
Im guessing no one else has found any data to support this. I would assume someone would be talking about it by now....but, it seems development is kinda slow (absolutely no disrespect intended) or the possiblity is people who want root are not concerned about knox so there hasnt been alot of interest. From what i can tell though is kingroot was for earlier devices and doesnt even work on an updated note 4 let alone a 5. Someone tell me im wrong. Im offereing 20 bucks for a root method. lol i know thats weak but maybe other people will join me. Thanks to anyone that looks into this.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bossmandude:
I have a T-mobile branded Note 4, which I purchased used on eBay about half a year ago. The device worked fine apart from having difficulty finding and keeping a GPS signal - which I didn't mind as Google Maps worked without a problem. In the last 2 days I saw that my Note had problem with charging the battery. The charging indicator would show up, but the "Fast Charge" option would not appear despite being enabled in the settings. Not only that, but the battery would actually deplete itself when charging.

At first I thought that the problem was with the ROM screwing up for some reason, so I went back and restored a backup, but that didn't help. Following that I thought that the issue might be the battery being faulty so I got myself a brand new battery, but nothing changed. Finally I determined that it was actually the USB port that was at fault. I had issues with software acting up and faulty batteries before, but never a broken USB - which is why I never even considered a broken USB port being the reason.

So, now I'm stuck with a phone that refuses to charge and can't even connect to my PC at all. I honestly don't know what my options are at this point. I don't consider myself tech-savvy enough to take the phone apart and change the USB port, but I'm also out of luck, because the phone is rooted and running a custom ROM on it and without a working USB I can't bring it back to its original state. I'm the second owner as well, so even if I was somehow able to restore the phone to factory settings I don't know if Samsung would honor my warranty and I'm on MetroPCS not T-Mobile, so I can't go through them either.

I'm wondering is there any place online that I can send it and get it fixed for a good price or should I just mark my losses and sell it on eBay for a lower price stating that it has a broken USB port?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlkaliV2:
If I could make some easy suggestions first. Thanks to some good moves by Samsung if you just buy an external battery charger you can swap charged batteries very easily. If you don't want to swap you can install a wireless charging back on your note and fix that right up. As for accessing the phone with USB you could get away with a Micro SD to SD adapter and just put files you need to transfer on that. Files can also be sent over Bluetooth and WiFi with our phones. The only thing that would be very hard to work around would be Odin flashes to new firmware updates. I will say sometimes you can hold it just right and get a connection but you need a stable hand.

For affordable extern charger with two extra batteries I recommend checking out Anker on Amazon. Any generic MicroSD to SD will work so go with what is cheap. As for professional repair? I looked over the daughter board replacement steps on ifixit and on a quick look it seems like the screen has to be removed making it a pain. Finding someone reputable to do it is really the biggest challenge. I hope the workarounds help and that maybee you can find a permanent fix from a reputable repair shop. Check locally, it is a common procedure. Good luck.
