Good to know. I had the same problem with trying to flash the TOT to my G3, but I was still able to access recover, so I just wiped all the partitions from there and then I was able to flash it just fine. What I had done before was try to flash a ROM ported from another G3 variant which claimed to work with mine... it didn't.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gallitho:
Hi everyone. :)

I've been reading this forum since a long time ago, until I finally decided to register a couple days ago, so I'm new here. (Hello world).

Please forgive me for my bad english, but it's not my native language. I'm from México.

I have an issue with my S6 (flat). The thing is that I've flashed succesfully (I think) a custom rom a few hours ago and I'm still testing it. Everything looks fine so far except for one weird issue that I haven't find to be disturbing no one but me even through I've searched for it, just one guy who reported this to be happen on a S3.

The problem is that me model number has changed to one from a S6 Edge, mine was SM-G920I and suddendly changed (after the flash) to SM-G925F.

The guy that posted this issue on its S3 said that you can modify its model number by rewritting its code with Root Explorer, but I dunno if this solution also applies to my case.

If someone can help me, I'd be very thankful.

Regards.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Obagleyfreer:
Don't worry about it. The custom ROM you installed was based on the edge firmware that's why.

I am using Back to N0t3 ROM and so my model number is now that of the Note 5.

If it worries you then you can edit the build prop entry "ro.product.model" and change it back.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gallitho:
Thanks a lot for your reply. :)

I was planning 'bout reflashing my rom, thinking that maybe something went wrong in the process, and I was stuck waiting for someone to answer my cuestion to move on installing apps etc. but now that I know that there's nothing to worry about, I can continue modding. :D

Can you please explain me the route to find the entry to change the model number? I know there's nothing to worry about, but I'm a little perfectionist hehe.

Regards from México. ;)
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
Use a text editor or Root Explorer.

Navigate to /system and edit the build.prop file point said earlier and reboot. Make sure you dont edit anything else and don't make typos, else you can have an issue with booting (which can be so solved by putting back the original build.prop or reflashing the ROM).

[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csetera:
I've received notification of a 5.1 upgrade for my V510. Having just done a full factory reset, I expected this to be a quick upgrade. Unfortunately, I'm getting an error during the installation and I'm not sure what might be going on. I had originally been rooted, but have been using stock recovery. I assumed that the factory reset would clear the rooting.

What can I do to determine the underlying error so that I can attempt to fix it. I should add that the error happens in recovery.

Thanks,

Craig
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Even unrooting still results in a modified system.img (system partition) and LG Lollipop OTAs detect that.

If you can get a KDZ for the V510 for either the new or old official stock build, and flash it with LG Flash Tool 2014 in CSE mode that would fix everything. It would also wipe your internal storage, be warned.

If you can't find a KDZ, you could try searching Google for:

lg_imei_checker_b1

Then enter your IMEI in the program's box and press the button at the bottom and it'll find the latest KDZ assuming they're made available for the V510. Then install LG's drivers for your device on a Windows PC, Google for LG Flash Tool 2014 in XDA and use that on the PC with your original USB cable to reflash your V510.

Thanks for the link. I was able to grab the software, but now I have what may be a stupid question.... This is a V510 WiFi only tablet. Does it have an IMEI number I can enter into the tool? I tried the serial number, but that didn't seem to work. Of course, the tool is in Vietnamese, so I can't read any messages :)

Thanks again,

Craig
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
You're welcome! I guess I assumed that even WIFI only devices also had them, but I was probably wrong. My IMEI (albeit for the VK810.4G, of course) is in Settings / About tablet / Status.

Okay, I would advise going to the root of the G Pad 8.3 sections and use XDA's Search these Forums field to search for:

V510 KDZ

If that doesn't find the stock image for the V510, I have no idea. Sorry my info about the IMEI checker was likely a waste of time. ?

[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csetera:
I haven't managed to find a KDZ file for this device, however I have found reference to a TOT file and some instructions for installing that. What is the difference between the two types of files? The directions for the TOT file look like kind of a pain, but I haven't had time to actually do the installation. In addition, it appears to be a KitKat version. I will need to take it to stock KitKat and then use OTA's to get it where it is supposed to be.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Just technical differences in the files which I haven't investigated - both TOTs and KDZs do the same thing: restore your device to a particular (usually official but once in a while a leaked) stock ROM, and usually wipes everything including internal storage, not including any MicroSD cards, though.

And yes regarding OTAs.

Good luck! I hope you can work through it and get it to where you need it to be. I know it's a pain, and I have very little experience with TOTs - I find KDZs easier.

I'm trying to follow the directions I found here... http://www.idigitaltimes.com/lg-g-p...load-and-install-new-build-ota-rollout-397715 They all look reasonable and make sense. My problem is that I can't get the silly tablet into download mode. Is there anything specific I should be doing? Are there tricks or things that matter on the PC side of the equation to get it into download mode? When I plug it in with the volume buttons held down, I get a brief view of the battery charge screen and then nothing.

Thanks for any insights.

Craig
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Do you continue holding down both Volume Buttons until you see the very faint Download Mode text on the center of the screen? Might take a second or two.

Also, make sure the tablet is completely off to begin with. Assuming the V510 is similar enough to my VK810.4G, when powering down the tablet, even after the screen turns black it takes some seconds more and it vibrates right before it turns off. Of course that's worth a fully running system and I'm too lazy at the moment to re-read and remind myself exactly which situation you're in. ?

[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csetera:
I actually have no idea what USB cable came with the tablet... I don't necessarily keep them together. Is it really going to make a difference? I am plugging in the cable to the tablet first and then to the PC, but can attempt the other way to see if it makes a difference.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
It can make a difference, yes. That doesn't mean that using one that didn't come with the tablet isn't going to work, but it's always recommended on any device for these kinds of operations to use the original cable when possible.

The directions I've seen always the cabled plugged into the PC first, and then to the tablet after holding the buttons down - I've never tried otherwise so I don't know if it can work the way you had been trying it or not.

You already have the correct drivers on your PC as well, right? If not, install them (go to LG's website and look for support for the V510), reboot the PC, and the first time you plug the tablet into the PC (assuming you can get it into Download mode), it can take up to 10 or even 20 minutes to load the drivers. Note also that if you plug the tablet (or any USB device) into a different USB port on the PC, it has to load the driver again; not to be confused with the installation of the drivers you would've done already - USB just always has to load the driver you installed separately for each USB port you plug a device into.

Also, use a USB 2.0 port instead of USB 3.0.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csetera:
SUCCESS!

I don't know if it was the cable, the port or the planets being misaligned... but I was able to get into download mode and flash back to stock 4.4.4 using the TOT approach. The OTA updates are downloading now and I'm hopeful that things will go well and this device will be factory fresh.

Thanks for all of the help!

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fifth313ment:
Hey, I need some help. In the service code *#9900# I hit "Enable silent logging from boot" and now I can't disabled it?! I get a toast notification on startup that silent logging cannot start check my debug setting. I hate this and there is a service running called "SiletLogging" siletlogservice and com.sec.modem.settings. It is annoying and taking up resources. Any help would be great! I went o the silent logging app in the ap manager and cleared cache, tried clearing cache partition on the phone itself, etc. I tried enabling debug and then enabled silent logging and disabling but I am unable to stop the silent logging from running? I tried going to the silentlogqcom file and changing from a 1 to a 0 but it didn't work. I don't want to have to reset my phone to undo this. Arg, I'm an idiot! This is a stock T-Mobile Note 3 running Android 5.0.

Thanks a million!

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fifth313ment:
OK I think I fixed it. I went into the application manager in settings and went to apps diagmonagent, devicetest, factory mode, service mode and silent logging and cleared data and cache in each. Then I cleared all cache data in storage settings, then went to recovery (turn off phone and hold volume up and home while pressing and holding power until you see recovery in little text on the Samsung logo you can release) and cleared system cache and also disabled cp logging in there too for good measure. When I restarted the phone the silent logging was gone and my normal system resources were back to normal. Man I got lucky! Won't mess with that anymore but at least if someone else does they have a fix which is why I am leaving this here for future people who mess up like myself!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goodday2558:
Once using silentlogging its in autostart. You can use an App like Power Clean or ES task manager then look for autostart option find silentlogging and disable its autostart. That is easiest way to fix and it works. I had same Problem. Please be careful and do not disable every task.

Good day.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] sonny82:
Received my #Note5 last wed. Brand new out the box. When i got it the battery was at 5%. No problem. I turned it off until i got home. Good home. Charged it. I noticed after an hour of "fast charging" the battery wad at 93%. I fell asleep, woke up 2 hours later. Battery was still at 93%. I unplug and decided to let it discharge so i can try again.

Second charge, the battery gets to 100%, but then quickly drains down to 92%. (No exaggeration, the battery went down to 92% in 5 minutes). This happens again on the 3rd charge. Abs since then i only get about 4 to 5 hours of battery life with regular use. (Nothing excessive) it even dies quick on standby and on power save mode. Did i hey a bad Note? I've read reviews about the battery being pretty good, but I'm just not seeing it. Wondering if i should take it back to sprint. I'd it worth it?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] 954wrecker:
Try this before taking it back.

plug your phone to the charger and wait until it shows 100% then.. Dial *#0228# unplug your phone and hit quick start, you may see a popup warning , just hit OK, unlock your phone and you will realize your phone have been lying to you

Plug it again and repeat until level 100% matches with your battery icon showing 100%, you may not need it, or maybe need to do it 2 or 3 times

I have not had any issues on my note 5 but it worked great on my note 3.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] sonny82:
Ok so update.. monday when i got home i decided i wasnt going to fast charge my battery, instead use the regular charger adapter. Betsy is at 100% tried the *#0228# said the battery was at 100%. Went through regular use and the battery ended up last about 12 hours. (Minus a few hours downtime for me being sleep ill give it a good 8 hours) ok cool. So after ut got down to about 20-15% i charged it again with the regular adapter. This time (with sleep time added) i got about 16 hours on the battery. Ok cool. Another regular charge, 16 hours but i charged it here and there in between. Today around 4 i decided yo fast charge it. 100% around 5 o'clock. Its now 3:16am my time and im at 29% 9 and half hours on the battery... i also noticed in the beginning on fast charge the battery died a lot faster. So i think what ill do is charge it with the regular adapter for now on unless I'm in a situation where i have no choice but to fast charge like if im at work or something. All is well now. ???

I am very excited to see that the new Moto X is about to be rooted soon (apparently). I just want root for Adaway, Xposed, and a few other niceties. I have no wish to put a custom ROM on the Pure.

But I have a few basic questions (sorry if this seems noobish), what happens when Motorola sends updates to the phone? In particular, when it gets updated to Android 6.0 Marshmallow.

- Would I need to unroot, install the update, and then root again?

- Would updating get rid of root, and would I need to wait for a new root procedure to be discovered?

- Is there some risk that I would need to re-install all my apps?

- Anything I need to worry about?

Your last comment is reassuring. I'm still learning when it comes to rooting; I had my friend root my Galaxy S3 years ago, but I'm gonna try to do it myself this time and learn the details of the process, and all that it entails (possible consequences, etc). Please bear with me.

Based on what I've read online (for example this article), it says OTA updates will break the root, but I can always re-root after the OTA and it's only a minor hassle (for phones with unlocked bootloader). Is that pretty much what you're saying as well?

So once Motorola rolls out the 6.0 Marshmallow update, would I need to re-unlock the bootloader (via this thread ) , and then re-flash recovery, etc?

At any point would I need to worry about losing any data on the phone?
