[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tallazzPilipino:
does it have to be the edge? but yeah, I would recommend an unlock international version either way especially if you're currently with a GSM provider. I just recently ordered my gf the unlocked international S6 duos from B&H. luckily the colour she wanted happened to be the one that's currently selling for less at the moment.

LTE is working for both my Note 5 duos SIMs which seemed to be a concern for some people about the duos version.

Thanks. So which of the the models I listed above would be the one.

Yeah he wants the Edge so that's what I'll get, good kid, makes the grades, doesn't ask for a lot. My older 19yo son that's on my plan bought the non Edge S6 out right but he has a job and saves and buys what he wants so you gotta love that.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tallazzPilipino:
well, anything 920 is out, because that's the S6 body.

go to B&H and check the specifications for the supported bands. they do have an unlocked G925A specifically for ATT. B&H is the biz - I get a ton of camera gear from there (and Adorama). return policy is awesome. one week full money-back if purchased in-store. 30 days if shipped to your home. of course, shipping is on you.

What's the difference between these two other than one is region locked and one's not.

The region locked seems to be higher. I'm in the US and AT&T both look to support ATT bands

Will ATT Visual Voicemail work? MMS?

Does going to AT&T and buying one gain me anything over these other than spending $200
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tallazzPilipino:
well, you're guaranteed everything works. ATT bootloader is locked, if you care about rooting. you'll get all the ATT bloatware. i'm not sure if the ATT handsets have their branding on it. there may be some difference in bands support (if you plan on traveling abroad with your phone and using it). but if the phone is just going to remain under ATT's network, domestically, I don't think getting one from them can be a bad idea.

as for vvm and mms, I couldn't even tell you. I personally don't use either.

FWIW, My AT&T S6 edge has some Samsung software/settings removed that some people have said are good (ie, the download booster). I found this thread since I'm getting ready to exchange my AT&T locked s6edge for an unlocked one.

Also, are you sure your son won't want to root his phone? I had my phone for 4 days before realizing I'd really like to root my phone.

Also, my research (on the B&H site) shows that the AT&T specific version has fewer bands (LTE especially) for when travelling abroad.

The reason to go AT&T imo is their lay-away plan, but if you are buying outright I don't see the win. (But I haven't done the alternative yet).

---------- Post added at 12:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:30 PM ----------

One clarification I noticed... the 925F has all the bands of the 925A (AT&T phone) and then some. The 925I is missing 4g-lte band "20" that the AT&T phone has, according to B&H specs. So I'd avoid the 925i for AT&T in the states.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Daps:
He just turned 13 so he won't be rooting. If he wants to buy a phone himself then he can do whatever he wants to it. Not taking the chance of it bricking.

Neither of us will be traveling abroad. If I was buying for me the International would be a no brainer but since I'm getting it for him. I want to make sure there won't be quirks on AT&T

I read a thread on this forum where some people said they weren't getting full LTE speeds on the international versions on AT&T. I'm still researching. Wonder if it's the modem software. Thanks for the heads up about the 925i. I over looked that.

His mom was supposed to get him the phone for his 13th birthday but now says it'll be two weeks. If she doesn't come through. I'm going to bite the bullet and get it for him. I have custody so maybe it would be best if I just got the phone and have him on my plan so I can monitor it if need be.

B&H has an AT&T branded but it's the wrong color. Still not sure why he wants the gold.

Still debating on a AT&T branded phone vs International version. I found new unlocked AT&T Edge Plus on ebay almost the same price as a regular 6 Edge unlocked. $70 difference but that thing is kind of big so now I'm debating on going the ebay route for the Edge Plus or sticking with the regular s6 edge.

If I did get the international SM-G925F for my son to use on AT&T. How would he get updates pushed to him? Like the update to Marshmallow? Would he have to use a computer to update it or would Samsung just push it to the phone?

ETA:Looking at B&H says it has a 1yr limited warranty through B&H. Is the Samsung one voided because it's unlocked?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tallazzPilipino:
the updates are over the air (OTA), and may be released even earlier than carrier models.

I'm guessing that if the warranty is not directly through the manufacturer via B&H, then B&H may be offering an equivalent because the international models are from different other markets. you can always verify with them, but they're a highly regarded business, so you shouldn't have to worry.

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Daps:
Thanks for your help

I think I'm just going to order a G925F from B&H. It's only a few cents different than Amazon but I think it may be easier to deal with a warranty issue if it comes up with B&H than a seller on Amazon since it'll be 3rd party and not sold by Amazon.

eBay has a ATT branded Edge Plus for 699 but I think that may be too big for him to carry in his pocket during school hours.

Looks like the new Jetech glass is getting thumbs up from the thread I read so I'll put that on it and get a Spigen case or maybe a flip cover case I saw on Amazon.

Thanks again

Off topic response:

Down here in India, carrier locked phones are extremely rare. The "international" version of any phone is common. We just walk into a showroom, buy a phone, any phone and done. We have a fully factory unlocked "international" version of the phone.

So tell me, in the United States, can't you just walk into a showroom and get a factory unlocked "international" version of a phone?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Daps:
No not if you buy from a carrier(there may be one or two exceptions). Here they are locked to the carrier. If you buy it outright you can request the carrier to unlock it but it will have the carrier branding and carrier bloat software on it. Carriers still do some form of subsidies here although I think they are trying to move away from that so I guess that's why they still come locked but after you finish your contract or buy the phone out right they'll unlock it. The phone still may not have all the bands you need for overseas though.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkNate34:
That sucks, man down here, any phone will work with any Sim Card of whatever provider.

Yeah of course it MAY not have "all" the bands for overseas, but if it's factory unlocked, all the better.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Daps:
Thanks for the help guys.

I ordered the S6 Edge 925F from B&H Tuesday and got it today.

I turned it on to make sure it powers on, no dead pixels and I charged it up.

Nice looking screen.

Since this is a Christmas gift I plan on getting it activated on ATT in a week or two just to to make sure there are no connection problems with the phone and still inside of B&H return/exchange time frame. I'll get a screen protector and looking at a flipcase I saw on Amazon. Hopefully that'll help protect the screen when it's in his pocket at school. Will also get him a slim case.

I haven't setup his google account on it yet and I haven't created a samsung account for it yet.

I've updated to 5.1.1

But thanks again for the help and suggestions
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkNate34:
Whatever you do, do NOT miss Skinomi's tempered glass protection for the S6 Edge, check it on their website, order it. It's superior to plastic or TPU film.

As for a flip cover, man he's a teenager (like me), he probably won't like it. You are better off with Spigen's transparent back cover. I have a USAMS transparent back cover, strangely it ain't online, but I got it at a mobile store and it's legitimate.

Also make sure you update the security policy and enable it to auto update, it's in Security settings and then Other Security settings.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Daps:
I plan to get him a few different type cases but he said he didn't have a problem with a flip cover.

I can't find any good reviews here on tempered glass for this phone. I'll look at the Skinomi.

Does it have any dead zones? I read people complain about a dot matrix look on some of these glasses.

Why don't the make a glass without any coloring on it instead the phones color:(

Thanks for the tip on auto update
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tallazzPilipino:
if I remember correctly, if the Skinomi tempered glass for the S6 is anything like the one for the N5, there was a whole thread somewhere on here dedicated to how horrible it is.

I had some tempered glass on my S6 Edge, those dots were definitely there, but honestly they don't bother much. I had it for two months, watched several movies too, barely noticed the dots.

I removed it though, adhesive was weak.

Had a go at the local shop, dude said wait till next month for transparent tempered glass.

Currently, I have some cheap plastic film on my screen.

Model : Samsung galaxy s3 GT19300

I was using s5 sensation rom for my s3 gt19300 but was facing some problems. So i swithed to Glamour s5. The flashing process was successfully done (i wiped all cache,dalviks cache). Now when i start the phone the samsung logo appears and then the screen remains blank. Now i cant start my phone. Tried flashing the same file several times yet no progress( phone can start in recovery mode). Now i dont have any backup of the previous roms on my phone and cannot access phones internal memory as phone is not starting up. Is there any way by which i can paste the previous rom on my phones internal memory and flash that? Or any other process using odin or anything so that i can get my phone back:crying:

Tried various times by removing battery for a long time and flasing again and clearing cache and dalviks cache.

Any way to read phoneinternal memory on PC in recovery mode to paste the previous rom file.

Thanks in advance

Help!

TWRP probably botched flashing new ROM (ARHD, MD5 checked), and after reboot I'm stuck on white HTC screen (~50 minutes... far too long for first boot!). Phone does not react to power button. Does it mean I have to wait until battery dies? I left it on 100% :(

I tried holding vol- + power, vol+ + power, vol+ + vol- + power.

What can I do?

EDIT: It turned off, and won't switch on again. I've just got me expensive brick :(
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
Put it in a wall charger.

When you connect to wall charger, you should see battery charging image for a few second before it screen off. At any time press power you should see battery charging image. Long press power button will boot it.

Wait for awhile let it charge, then long press power & volume down to get to hboot.

I believe your problem is not mainly the TWRP but your firmware is too low to run a lollipop ROM (as seen in your signature).

you need to start your phone in bootloader mode you can do this by pressing and holding the voicedail and powerbutton wile resetting.

you will get a 3 collored schreen.

connect using usb and use a official rom I don't know if O2 has his own rebranded device like tmobile but if you do.. you'll need a o2 rom.

if you don't got a O2 rom you'll need to get it fixed

[Galaxy Note5 General] svetius:
Just want to say that the brightness gets EXTREMELY high in bright light. It seems to have this "turbo bright" mode that tends to wash out colors a bit on the screen, but I rather have washed out colors and a highly visible screen, than more real colors and an unreadable screen! It's amazing it gets so bright because it's AMOLED.
[Galaxy Note5 General] tw1n5nak35:
I've had this phone since November last year and the screen brightness is far more than awesome. I work during the day and mostly indoors. The auto brightness works perfectly. It's seamless between walking outside where it's sunny, bright and back inside with lots of indoor lighting. But something changed when I took the marshmallow update. The auto brightness adjust my screen a little on the dark side when in darker room. A movie theater to be exact. But we can also adjust the auto brightness bar, which helps but it just will re adjust itself again. So it's still nice when i'm not in a dark room, which is only when I'm watching tv, movie, playing video games. The max brightness is excellent.
