[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] CBRRider:
So when I was trying to unlock my phone via my fingerprint, i didn't have my finger on there correctly 1 to many times and locked my phone. I couldn't remember my passcode and had to log into it via my google account. It then restarted and now won't boot. Gives me the "custom binary blocked by FRP lock" :( Tried flashing the root tar file and TWRP tar file with no luck. Don't know what to do as I have never came across this before. Any help is appreciated. Phone is rooted but stock.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] dschachm:
They holding volume up, home and power when the phone is off. Should get you into recovery. Then do a factor reset. Not sure if this will work though.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] travisw0204:
The phone is rooted so flashing the tar file for root or TWRP is useless because its already rooted. The problem is you locked the phone with your fingerprint. Did you make a backup? You can restore that and you should be good beause it resets the device completely. However, if you did not, then flash the stock tar file in Odin and you'll be good to go. You can find the stock tar file here...http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=62536311&postcount=1

I can confirm it works. You will just have to reroot because it returns the phone to stock out the box.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] mirosaw2:
Due to FRP (Factory Reset Protection) by Google, You won't be able to flash any custom files to phone, it'll always fail, To be able to flash any custom files, You have to enable "allow OEM unlocking" from developer menu, which will disable the FRP lock, But this is not possible in your case since you can't access the menu, But since you're rooted, i assume that you enabled "USB Debugging", So now connect the phone to PC and run CMD and try the following commands one by one,

adb devices # this should list your device

adb shell

su

cd data/system

ls #this will list all files in that dorectory

rm *.key #to delete all .key files which contains the lock

and you're done.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] hshah:
How does one use ADB when its stuck like this?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] mirosaw2:
He just said his phone is rooted, And i assumed that USB Debugging is enabled, So if you have the same case, You can connect your phone to PC and start using ADB as normal, Then you can follow my guide to get rid of any kind of screen security there, Simple like that.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] hshah:
I connected the phone to the PC whilst it was in Download Mode (that is the only mode I can boot into and it wouldn't see it).

Too late now anyway, as I've just flashed stock through ODIN :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] mirosaw2:
If your phone doesn't boot to system, Then you can't use my method, My method was all about saving the data on the phone, And if the data wasn't important to you, you can always flash the stock FW for your phone, Or even wipe the phone from recovery, And i can see you had no option since system doesn't boot up.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] hshah:
Interestingly I have just recovered it by flashing stock through ODIN and all I lost was root and Xposed. All my data etc is still there! :highfive:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] mirosaw2:
Good for you, And that's because you've flashed an One-Package FW (AP only) which is simillar or newer than the one you had, In that case all your of your settings and data will be still there, And that applicable also for the screen security, Which you'll notice it being there if you had one before your phone got stucked at boot screen, Now i see what your problem was, Before now i thought it was about security. :highfive:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] hshah:
I actually didn't have any screen security. I know I had turned on OEM and USB Debugging, so not sure how OEM got turned off.

Anyways glad its sorted! Just finished re-rooting and I am back up and running!

odin flash fails

Hey ..

I have a sprint note 5..I was trying to root my phone but somehow the instructions I was following didn't have anything about developer options and lock off from setting..

Now after I restarted I cannot boot up my device .and get the

Frp lock error .

I tried refreshing custom rom through odin, but it keeps failing..

Please help.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] hshah:
You need to flash stock ROM, not custom ROM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] sammi336:
where can i find this stock rom
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] m7mdas3d:
I have the exact same problem and tried flashing a stock rom but it fails as well.

did you have any luck??
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] rayraycarter4:
mine is stuck too i turned off oem unlock and resarted phone now it wont boot i tried odin to stock oi6 but i did ota to oj6 which i see isnt released yet, so does anyone know if and when they are going to release OJ6 FW? and does anyone know how to fix this problem
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] psychokrod:
How did you do it?

How do you get it to flash via odin? I keep trying and get a failure of the lock. Is there a specific method you did that i am not doing right?

Please help if you can. I don't want to have to go to warranty and pay a hefty fee.

I too am suck in FRP lock. I also can't get into TWRP or can't flash it on the phone.

I would really appreciate it.

Yes it did. Download the stock firmware from Sam Mobile and just flash it through ODIN whilst in Download mode. It kept all my apps and settings too.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shiboby:
Hey guys,

I need to decide between the LG G4 and the Oneplus 2. I really like the expandable memory and battery life of the G4, but the Oneplus has a great processor and lots of development. So I'm interested to know what you like and don't like about the G4. What should I know about the phone in considering it? There isn't much ROM or Kernel development from what I see here, how do you like what is available? How easy is it to root compared to Samsung, HTC, and Oneplus? How customizable is it? Can you simply OV/UC?

Any feedback is appreciated!
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] remixtech:
I had the same choice has you. I choosed G4 two weeks ago for a lot of reasons. (I had a Note4)

Problem : Touch default which will be correct in the next update

I prefer G4 against Oneplus2 for : Expandable memory, battery removable, more stable CPU/GPU, great screen, great photos/videos. Good battery.

I haven't root the phone actually, but I have downloaded the bootloader unlocker key on LG website. In fact root seems very easy.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamesd1085:
Root is pretty simple and with an unlockable bootloader coming for most if not all variants the g4 development will be booming soon...i love the camera and the overall smoothness of my g4 and plan on keeping it for a long while
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shiboby:
What makes you think development will be booming soon?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamesd1085:
Unlockable bootloader...usually draws devs as a workaround is not needed to install custom roms/kernels...also root is an easy process...also i owned the original optimus g the g2 g3 and all had great developement...i will probably be an lg mobile buyer for life...plus an unlocked bootloader on such a powerful device just screams for attention
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android404:
I highly doubt there'll be much development for the g4. And obviously there'll be way more for the op2. So if you buy a phone to flash roms all day long I think the decision is simple. For me the g4 with root and Xposed is perfect. I wouldn't flash anything else than stock on it if I got payed for it.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shiboby:
I dont flash ROMs everyday. Before my OPO got stolen. I hadnt flashed anything in about two months. I just want to make the phone run the way I want. Why do you think there wont be much development? And how do you think it would compare to g2 and g3 development?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamesd1085:
He makes a good point...lg stock roms are amazing and using xposed to change them to your liking makes it about as good as it gets
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shiboby:
It has been a long time since I used Xposed, but if I remember correctly you cant really tweak the voltages, clock speed, governors, io scheduler, Etc. Plus I'm concerned about development after LG ends support
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xchasa:
Agreed.

The reason we used to flash roms daily was to fix faults and improve things which usually broke other things...

G4 on latest update seems pretty much perfect.

More time spent doing fun stuff now.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rowbaggie22:
I had that choice yesterday when I got an invite but I chose to stick to my lg g4 as I love the fone I had the g3 lg pro 2 and I love this fone battery last me sometime 2 days and I love customising it with lg themes from store
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shiboby:
That's great, for now. But when Lg stops supporting the G4 in about a year, I'd like there to be continued dev.

Additionally, there are things I'd like to tweak to make the phone more suited for my use (gov/io, clock speed, processor voltage, wifi seek interval, etc) that I dont think I can do with xposed or with stock.

How much customizability is there with lg stock? What about the Kernels already available?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xchasa:
I'm happy leaving voltages etc alone. It works great as it is for me. Maybe check the dev section for progress but sounds like one plus 2 might suit you better.

The plan I'm on allows a new phone yearly so so fading dev support was never an issue.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamesd1085:
According to lgs website the g2 is about to get 5.1...they may even get m...the support from lg is pretty amazing for an oem...i also had my g3 break out of warranty but it was a known issue and lg fixed it free of charge...thats why i stick to lg
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rogconnect:
And I love LG because I never won a phone b4. They gave me a brand LG G4 H815 for Trial and to keep.

Bought the oneplus2 a few weeks back, then sold it for 100$ profit on eBay, just today found the unlocked version for 399$ free shipping on eBay

So really it cost $300

The main reason for this voice is the camera, both I and the wife are currently on the oneplus1 and she complains about the camera non-stop

If this purchase was for me I would have just kept the onepuls2 but the wife will stay stock and I'm happy with the oneplus1

So I'll find out in a few days if I made the right choice for her...

From reviews and reading these threads I think I did!
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shigi1231:
Soo after 2 months with the LG G4, i finally put it to rest and decided to use the OnePLus 2 with the 2.1.2 oxygen OS update. I have to say, after just months of crappy Oxygen OS, Oneplus finally fixed the horrible stock OS and camera bugs. SO far, Im loving the Oxygen OS, which for me is the closest to Stock android, and the better one in terms of skinned roms. The SD808 does take its limits when I play games, but the SD810 v2.1 works like a charm. Camera on both devices, to me are both at par even in low light. Battery is better on the OP2 due mostly to the FHD as opposed to the on the G4 with QHD.

Honestly, as of now, stock vs stock, oneplus has gotten a long way with its oxygen OS, and I have to say that now I can recommend it over the G4. cheers

[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maciaas87:
Hello,

i'm thinking about buying this phone. i have few questions:

- is really cover bending ? (flexible like in iphone 6+) ?

- is alu back easy to scracth ? (i want to wear in barret case)

- do you have white stains on screen ?
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alvinma:
1. it's not easily bent like iphone 6+, but it's not the strongest I've seen either. Some hard droppings might slightly bent a little part on the phone, but usually it's not easily noticed.

2. yes it's open to scratch like all the phones do

3. most of the times white stains is created by dropping the phone, but since it's so hard to never drop the phone, white stains will most certainly appear eventually. However white stains are hardly noticeable. You have to exam closely to find them.

------------------------------------

so the conclusion is: when you can buy a nexus 6 for $349.99 from amazon.com, why do you buy a mate 7................

http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-Nexu...ie=UTF8&qid=1441595249&sr=1-2&keywords=nexus6

if you really want the fingerprint sensor, there're still many other options, including one plus two, and the about to come next generation of nexus phone.

ps. the biggest regret after I brought the phone is that there's no CyanogenMod for the phone. There's a version or two unofficial's, but not supported at all.
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maciaas87:
Nexus 6 is good phone - but im from Poland - i think shipment from amazon will be expensive.

"yes it's open to scratch like all the phones do" - but i heard that this alu cover is very easy to scratch - easier than in other phones. that is true ?
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alvinma:
there're scratches on the back of my phone, but not hard scratches, they're hardly noticeable if I put the phone 50cm away from my eyes.

so no, it's rather indifferent with other phones.

the only phone that I have had that's super resistant to back scratch is oneplus one, which is because of the sandstone back cover.

Hi everyone,

i am new to Hermes site, i used to have wizard and knew how to unlock or flush any rom to that phone.

Tomorrow i am getting cingular 8525 which i am planning to use in T-mobile here in US. the phone I am getting is going to be refurbished phone. At&T is replacing the phone purchased back in February of this year.

I know I have to unlock it before I use it with t-mobile. I have read two ways of unlocking it one way is using HTC_Hermes_SIM_CID_Unlock_v3a.zip file but at the same time I read about this way "SIM-Unlock SoftBank X01ht post April (white versions) with radio 1.14.01.10".

since the phone will be refurbished phone, should I treat it as new out of bax when unlocking it? which way should I chose to unlock?

I only have T-mobile sim card, do you think i will need at&t sim card to unlock this phone?

after the unlock I am planning to upgrade it to wm6 and I saw many good roms here: Official HTC rom, Black Magic, Black Satin...which one of these would you guys recommend me to use?

Thank you in advance.

Use the HTC Hermes SIM_CID_Unlock v3a. Worked like a charm for me. It will CID and SIM unlock so you can install whatever rom and use whatever carrier you wanted. You don't need an ATT sim to unlock it either...just follow the step by step instructions that come with the unlocker.

[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] rituraj_singh:
My this post may be considered as a sequel to my previous post about the easiest way to root t2 ultra dual {.472} {5.0.2}

Now the way to root our t2 ultra dual {5.1.1} {.182}:

Download the ftf file of latest firmware 19.4.A.0.182 (search on google)

Download latest version or V 0.8 of prf creator (search on google and get xda link)

Download SuperSU.zip (search on google)

Now put the prf creator somewhere in your PC (let's say on desktop) extract it there.

Add ftf file and superSU.zip in prf creator

Mark all the boxes on right side of prf creator window

Hit create. In 15-20 minutes you will get a zip file named "flashable" in prf folder

Copy this flashable zip and put it in root of SD card of your phone.

Now reboot your phone in recovery

after rebooting into recovery, follow in sequence:

Wipe

Advanced wipe

select:

cache

dalvik

system

data

internal memory

swipe to wipe

go back to recovery home

tap install

select external sd card

select that flashable zip

swipe to flash

wipe dalvik

reboot to system.

To install recovery:

Download latest nut's xzdr installer zip

Put it somewhere in your computer

Extract it, you will get a folder of same name

Connect your phone to pc in USB debugging mode

Open the extracted folder

Double click the windows installer batch file

Grant superuser access on your phone's screen

Follow the instructions on terminal

(press 1 on your pc as you have SuperSU in your phone)

After successful instalation of recovery, your phone will reboot into recovery.

Reboot the phone into system

.

.

Now you have a rooted 5.1.1 D5322 with latest Dual recovery.

[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] theokon:
Thanks. For my XPERIA T2 ULTRA DUAL I had to made a change:

Instead of using the Recovery-Software you (rituraj_singh) offered I had to use the software (TWRP) recommended b abcdjdj in his post from 27th May 2014 ((D5322) Dual Recovery) on the XDA-Forum.

For the not-experienced Users of Androxyde Xperia Flash Tool: You can use the XperiFirm-Software (XI-Button in the Flash-Tool) and install the 5.0.1 (19.3.A.0.472)-Firmware from MELA Latin, but you have to overwrite also the Userdata and the Apps-Log, otherwise there are problems. After flashing use KingRoot to root your device, than replace kinguser using the batch-script of w0lfdroid.com (May 2015) placing the mrw-folder (included in the downloaded zip) on the intern memory (important) and executing it with Terminal Emulator. Than open SuperSu (installed by the script, not by you), and actualize the root-script. Afterwards reboot.

A Tip: After having installed the TWRP-Software on your phone you could have problems rebooting into the system, so prepare all and after having flashed the custom prf-rom on the device all would be function!
