[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpurick:
I guess it comes down to which LTE bands are available and which carriers' phones can be BL-Unlocked. Please tell me if t his has changed, but I'm used to AT&T bootloaders not being unlockable, while TMO bootloaders are often readily unlockable but their devices don't always use the same bands as AT&T's network.

I'm pretty sure I want an M9. It looks like ATT/TMO hardware are the same, though I don't know which bands are available on their respective ROMS. I really want my device unlocked, and I might want to run a custom ROM at some point.

Is it recommended to get an unlocked TMO phone for use on AT&T, or does the TMO ROM limit the available LTE bands in any way? Or is there any reason I should just go with the AT&T version because, for example, it's easily rooted and/or there's a way to unlock the BL?

Thanks in advance.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anandlal:
Get the AT&T version.

HTC allows you to unlock the BL.

Sunshine allows you to S-off so you can convert it to the Developer Edition.

This is what I did, got the AT&T version through them then converted the Dev Edition :)

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] RxyzM:
Trying to Flash Sony Ericsson MK16i using Flashtool. The phone is currently stuck in now well known - Sony Logo -> Xperia Logo -> Back to Boot Cycle and Sony Logo - Boot Loop.

I have installed Flash tool latest version (9.19.5). Have also installed Sony Xperia Common Drivers using Flash Tool's Driver.exe (V 1.8).

The phone was switched off; then the back button was held down and the USB cable connected to phone. The tool fails to detect Phone. The animation screen, one that shows the button to be used and the USB cable connection continues even after connecting the cable with BACK button pressed. In this case, the power LED turns green as expected.

Can not use even BLU or FAST BOOT. In case of BLE, the device is not detected.

In Case of Fastboot - The LED turns BLUE as expected when the USB cable is connected to the phone while pressing MENU button. But, even here, the phone is not recognized.

The Flash tool's DEBUG log does not show whether it tried to establish connection or why the connection is failing.

Any help/Advise will be much appreciated.

Warm Regards,

Ravi
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] fredres:
Help please. I stupidly pressed OK to update my rooted Verizon S4 5.0.1 (May release) I545 and have soft bricked it. The update was i545vrugoc1.

I can do a vol down + home + power to get to the custom ROM install screen but have not been able to download the Verizon 5.0.1 firmware. All the sites that claim to have it only install software and never the actual file.

I cannot get my computer to connect to my phone which now only displays the top bar display and pull down bar and I am unable to get into the settings screen to reset the phone. I am unable to do a hard reset because the OTA update starts immediately when doing a vol up + home + power and ends with an error.

I rooted on 5.0.1 using kingroot then deleted it after installing supersume.

Any suggestions on flashing and direct firmware download link that really works?

I just stumbled on this malacious impersonator/mirror of xda, maybe you can take steps against it with the hosting provider. I have replaced the tt in http with xx to make the link non clickable as the site contains malware: hxxp://forum.datadevelopement.com/
[About XDA developers] bitpushr:
Thanks guys, another proxy site. They are blocked.
[About XDA developers] godutch:
they are not a proxy, they impersonate XDA to spread malware. They copy all our posts and articles (or intellectual property), some of which have our real names attached to them, to spread malware (in our names) you should contact the authorities and at least the hosting provider and domain registrar
[About XDA developers] bitpushr:
I would love to have the authorities go after them, but from experience they are not very interested in people like this. They use multiple hosting providers and multiple IPs to essentially fetch our site and automatically inject their own ads (and malware). It's a proxy and we are able to track which IPs they connect from, and block those IPs.

There are a few pages thay they cache and are still serving but typically they will shut down the site in a few hours.

[Samsung Galaxy Core.] drascol:
I have a SM-G360T1 on 5.1.1 from Metro PCS. I don't need root access or want to flash a custom ROM but I want to remove the Metro PCS splash screens on startup/shutdown and I want to remove all of the Metro PCS bloatware...

I'm told that an option would be to flash a factory firmware to my phone (like the one you'd get if you bought the phone directly from samsung?)

How would I go about doing this? Can I use Kies or do I need to use Odin? Will this still trip Knox?

Any help is greatly appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] drascol:
when I look up firmware for the SM-G360T1 it only comes in the T-Mobile variant... Meaning it will almost certainly have the Metro PCS crap on it.

There are many version of the Galaxy Core Prime that are the same hardware, but they each have a different version of android it seems and are for different carriers and countries. Would flashing one of their firmwares kill the phone?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Revelation_Space:
My phone won't stop uploading. It basically uploads at its maximum bandwidth for almost all hours of the day.. According to My Data Manager it's caused by Google Contacts Sync, which has uploaded almost 700mb in the last 4 or 5 hours. I've gone into my accounts settings and turned contacts syncing off, but it's still uploading, which has me concerned.

As you can imagine, this is destroying my battery. Restarting has no effect. I could factory reset, but I'd rather figure out what's causing the problem. Bad app update? Haven't installed anything out with the Play Store other than a couple of Humble Bundle games, and they were long before this started happening. Everything that should be syncing, like Photos, is switched off.

Glad you're here to help. Like 6 weeks ago I attempted to return to stock. It was my understanding that I needed to downgrade twrp to flash the image (which I did easily . In the other thread it specified to wipe system first (REALLY wish I had thought that one through). Now I can't push ANYTHING to the SD card. No adb, no USB mtp.

I've tried updating drivers on 3 different computers, (windows 7, Windows 10, and yosemite) Tried unbreakable tool and kfhd restore tool.

All I can do is manually boot to twrp.

I realize there's probably more details needed but I'm strapped for time (on break) I was just ? to see your thread.

Any attempts to help will be profoundly appreciated! Thanks.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sd_shadow:
Can you still get to twrp?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KLit75:
Yes. That's all I can do. Not home but believe I'm running v 2.7.0.0

---------- Post added at 12:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:40 PM ----------

I've had time to think about it and I doubt hashcode would make a mistake like telling people to wipe system. And if he were mistaken there would be a LOT of people in my situation. So I believe what sets me apart is that my recovery is too old. The right drivers aren't present and I can't use adb as a result.

I CAN get this into Factbook both with a factory cable and with a regular one (the latter only works on Mac it seems). However, on Windows the restore tools both say Fastboot is not recognized command. I believe I tried flashing the updated twrp with Fastboot on mac but for some reason it didn't work.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sd_shadow:
Wiping system is necessary to install a new system stock or custom

possibly do you know the full file name of current recovery?

What error(s) are you getting?

"Fastboot is not recognized command." is a window issue not Kindle issue

[MENTION=4267571]sd_shadow[/MENTION]

The current recovery is TWRP v2.7.0.0

I provided all the info I can think of at the moment. It's been about a month since I tried anything so my memory is a bit fuzzy. If you need anything specific please let me know. Bascially all I want to do is push any rom (custom or stock to this). I have the second bootloader and twrp working. I think MAYBE a newer version of TWRP may solve the driver issue. But I know I tried flashing twrp through fastboot and it din't work. I believe it just hung with no error listed.

Thought I might be on to something. I went into device manager and noticed the option to install legacy drivers. Both android and kindle show up so I got excited but it was short llived... Both attempts yielded they got installed but may not work. Sure enough they didn't. ��

Updated when in twrp over USB I can see kindle and now 3 android composite add interface. But they have a yellow triangle on them.

If I try to connect over add it says list of attached devices but show nothing. I tried mounting system but that does nothing

Clicking on Android in device manager I get this device cannot starts code 10
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KLit75:
I spent a few hours trying different things and this seems to be my best bet (or at least the next thing I try). Can't do it tonight though because the windows pc I have is running adb 15 second installer and I don't have everything I need to complete it. If you or anyone else knows an easier way please share. Otherwise I'll setup sdk tools when I have a chance. Hopefully some time tomorrow. I'd prefer to do it on my mac because this pc isnt the best and really slowed me down tonight.

You have used the preferred driver from here Kindle_Fire_HD_ADB_Drivers.zip

What is your windows version?

Twrp should connect to the Mac, without issue, using mount usb or mtp.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KLit75:
Windows 10

I have NOOO idea how but I connected with mac. I swear to you I've tried connecting over adb before(MTP still didn't work btw). But I ran some basic commands with twrp mounted to SYSTEM, ran "adb devices" and it shows up. (I had tried SEVERAL variations of this before tonight)

Except instead of saying tate like it used to it had a string of letters/numbers then just said "recovery". Might be what it said before when in TWRP. I used to mostly use MTP when transferring files.

I was able to push the only amazon stockish files I could get 7.41 rooted+su from Hashcode. I also pushed updated TWRP and open apps for CM 12.1. Unfortunately adb push hung on that last one and then adb was gone. Couldn't connect. I bit the bullet and just flashed amazon and it worked. Just did this like 5 minutes ago so haven't tested root, recovery or anything else. I was intending on buying a kids case for this and letting my toddler son use it. We have prime and a lot of books i can access. So I might stay here but would like to get a newer version. Is there an easy way to get a later version of stock? I hate to give up root but he definitely doesn't need it and I've acquired several newer faster devices since I bought this a few years back.

Thanks a lot btw! I had sort of given up on this then I saw your thread. Just having someone to answer questions was enough to keep trying.

I signed up for free time and so far the only difference I see between 7.41 and a newer version would be inability to download prime titles. Of course this is my only amazon product running stock so I have nothing to compare it to.

Thanks. Think I did stumble upon that when I first thought about return to stock. But I'm not sure...

That page shows stock. I think the version I have, 7.4.1, is a modded version of stock. I also see recovery. Zip which is what I need to go full stock. But I don't know if flashing that in twrp will get me to stock.

After struggling just to push a file I don't want to take any chances. If there's a clear way of doing it I'm all in. I think this device will be eligible for the OS 5 update so that'd be my motivation to sacrifice root.

A little off topic--free time is pretty cool if you have prime but adding locally stored videos is a hassle (haven't been able to do it) I'm sure amazon did this deliberately but there must be a workaround.

I was able to download prime videos. Unlike on my android phone, they need to be added to the library first.
