[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NWKENT:
I did research your device..according to Samsung..your device is on the latest firmware available for your country code..Kit Kat 4.4.4

Your country code is either FTM (orange) or VGF..France

There is only one country on LP 5.0.2 and that country is Spain (code PHE) this is the only one on LP that the firmware has been released to the public..an OTA (over the air) is the only other way firmware is available..and if you checked your device for updates, you would recieve an OTA..Your device info that you posted states that your device is on the latest firmware.. "Latest Firmware:" Yes

Here is a link so you can see for yourself >> http://samsung-firmware.org/model/SM-G530FZ/page/1
[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMightOne:
Ohh..

But I live in the middle east.

So it's normal whenever I try to update my device and it states that it has been modified in an unauthorised way?

Plus I read some posts online which stated that I should check my Device Status. It states that it should read "official" but in my phone it states as "custom".
[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NWKENT:
Did you purchase the device used..not new in the box.?

Yes..It should say: Official

sent by my: SM-531M-57 Grand Prime (or) my: SM-N910C Note 4 (Lollipop 5.1.1)
[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMightOne:
Yeah, I've purchased it new. In its original packing.
[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NWKENT:
I see..well..your device is on the latest firmware available as far as I can see..

One may fix all that "custom" by flashing the firmware again..make copies to PC or SD card before you do..

You may research all this more..but its the only way I can see, is flash the stock firmware with Odin3..but..You may be on the stock firmware, and it comes that way from the box..I dont know..one could erase system and flash the firmware from Samsung's firmware page..

[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMightOne:
Do you know of any guide I can use in order to do that? Because that seems rather complex for my taste.?

Btw I just want to know one more thing, this issue that I'm having, it's normal right? Like it happens to alot of people and it can be resolved?
[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NWKENT:
Do a Google search for flashing firmware to your device via Odin3..You MUST have a Windows PC..its a fairly complicated matter..and somewhat risky..

You may research your issue more..but I think its either normal for your device..or something has went wrong somewhere, for the Samsung app. to show "Custom" and NOT "official"..I'm new to Samsung devices..but have alot of flashing experiance with Motorola and 1+1 devices..I have flashed some Samsung..but havent seen your issue..

No..I wouldnt say your issue is "Normal"..maybe with your varient and country code..but the majority of the Grand Prime wouldnt have your issue..

I have two SM-531M's..no issues..
[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMightOne:
Do you suggest I just visit a customer service?
[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NWKENT:
The only reason I can think of to visit a "Customer Service Center" is if I had purchased the device there and needed a warranty replacement..the people that work in those places USUALLY only know how to sale and use the devices..they usually know nothing about firmware/configuration..but its your choice ofcourse..lol

Anyhow..here is one of my personal files I compiled, I think it may help you..

Alright. Thanks alot for everything mate!

I guess I'll just visit one of them Samsung customer service centres in my area.

Wish me luck!

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] amazon68:
Just got my Cingular 8525 and its dropping calls like crazy,,, Even with a few bars on my phone it will drop calls. Been reading the forum and a bit ovewhelmed and confused since I am new at this and not very computer savy.

I have the following info

ROM Version 2.15.502.3

Rom date 04/09/07

Radio Version 1.40.30.00

Will upgrading my Radio version take care of my issue? If so, what is which version can I use based on my info?

I see the Bandswitch app, will this help me?

appreciate any advise

thanks
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
I'll leave someone else to answer the radio issue, although it may help to change it - "mrvanx guides" might help there.

Often dropped calls are caused when the device tries to grab the strongest signal band. In swapping band it can drop the call - a known issue. Bandswitch can be used to force to phone to stick to one band - so yes, it is a standard application for dealing with the dropped calls problem.

SAME DAM PROBLEM................

TRUST ME ITS THE NEW ROM

because i had the old rom...great....

now i got 2 replacement rom and found that was the problem

it would stick to 3g with one bar instead of E with 5 bars
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] baaadandy:
Excuse my ignorance, but will Bandswitch or any other app allow me to select between, say, 850 or 1900 GSM, not just GSM or UMTS/3G?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
The best place to ask is Danielherrero's thread:

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] dgduris:
I have the ROM dated from April on my 8525 (The one that upgraded to AT&T branding).

I had the dropped call problem - big time - beginning the day before thet launched the iThingy. An ATT tech asked if I ever shut off my phone, which I used never to do. i was told that ATT updates are sent to each phone, but only as the phone boots up. She said that if I would shut down the phone each day for a couple of minutes, then start it up, the phone would catch up on ATT sent updates and I would be fine. She was right! It took 2 days and I haven't dropped a call in 3 weeks. I was also having problems calling out. That is remedied as well.

TURN OFF YOUR PHONES!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Bbasso:
turn off the phone as in pull the battery out or as in simply hitting the power button on the side?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] freakyfranks:
I had the dropped call problem, also. I changed my radio to 1.43.00.0, And I have not dropped a call since. From what I've read so far, 1.43 and 1.50 are the top rated radio versions, both are on this site.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Doom Tints:
This ATT rep didn't really know what they were talking about.

However, turning the phone off WILL help the phone get any provisional updates (which are not actually software updates pushed to the phone).

What this means is that turning the phone off will help some people get a better fix for whatever area they happen to be in at that time, so it's still not bad advice.

This goes back to PocketPC 101 -- if the thing isn't acting as it should be, SOFT RESET IT. Really no one should be asking any questions for problems unless they've tried this first. That reset button is the only true way to 'turn off' the device.

You can find CWM Advanced Edition here for the Snapdragron N910F, or here for the Exynos versions; but I suggest you to flash TWRP. Just find the right version for your device here.

[Xperia Z5 Compact General] RiTCHiE007:
Why is this Z5 compact such a joke? It almost has the same specs as the z3 compact and the new camera aint all that good. The new sensor might be good but what if you cant make the software work? Its like putting a retard in a F1 car. Look at these photosamples http://www.eprice.com.tw/mobile/talk/4523/4953454/1/rv/sony-xperia-z5-compact-review/ on the right you find a note 5, which has a sony sensor at 16MP and on the left you find the Z5 premium with a 21MP sensor but it cant shoot any good pictures in the dark..... So again sony ****ed it up.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] supercakefish:
Name a single <5" non-iOS phone that can compete on specifications.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Dsteppa:
I don't think he's specifically talking about the specs of the phone, just that the camera still sucks.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] supercakefish:
But I can't think of any <5" phone that can compete camera-wise (except the iPhone 6S)?

And I think we should wait for more photo samples to appear before we take final judgement. Most of these early photo samples are using non-final software.

Here's a review that says the camera is the best in class:

http://www.theguardian.com/technolo...ria-z5-compact-review-best-smaller-smartphone
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] zakiwashi:
Hate to point out the obvious but every new phone that comes is an incremental improvement over its predecessor. Look at the iPhone, people(fools) queue for hours to be first to get the new model with 10% faster cpu, 10% bigger screen, 10% more pixels on the cmos sensor, and 20% less battery power. How i chuckle when i see iphone 6 owners, like junkies desperately looking for their next power fix! But, i digress.

A jack of all trades is a master of none. It is after all, a phone. It is not meant to be a world class, low light camera. My first camera phone was 0.3megapix. I thought it was pretty damn cool to have a camera at all. People just take it for granted nowadays. You want good low light photos, buy a camera. You know, them things you cant make phone calls on!
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] kitch9:
The camera is a lot better than the Z3.

This thread is like giving a retard a keyboard and allowing them to post on forums.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] RiTCHiE007:
Not really because i owned a z3c and own a z5c and the z5c isn't that great to begin with. So the only tard in this topic is you bro.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] kitch9:
Ok bro....
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] supercakefish:
You own a Z5C despite proclaiming it to be 'a joke' before it even went on sale? Huh... interesting.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] nilezon:
Brothers love, eey?
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] bubimir13:
I to had Z3C, were active in XDA section for it, and for one i KNOW Z5C has a better camera to start with. Only thing it doesn't have is battery life on KK with Z3C which owned every cell phone with flagship specs.

On Z3C my focus struggled at times, colors were oversaturated and in many occasions picture looked washed out. That is not the case on Z5C BUT there is a lot room for improvement and i think Sony will do it in time. Great potential with the IMX230 hardware.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] willumpie82:
wouldn't it be a good idea to make a static topic for flaming about a certain device, so we can focus on the good things instead of getting distracted by this kind of topics?
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] RiTCHiE007:
its not flaming its the truth but some just cant handle it.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] RiTCHiE007:
Yes the camera on the z3c was worse then on the z5c but when you look at the pictures taken with a z5c you will see blurry edges and its almost impossible to make awesome macro shots. So even tho this camera is a bit better it still cant mess with other high ends like note 5 or LG g4 that also uses a sony sensor so thats why i think this z5c is kinda a joke. But if sony doesn't fix all these problems like laggy OS then this will be my last sony phone.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Selech:
If you really think the performance is as bad as you say you should properly try another vendor! In my experience, they are at least as bad and some a lot worse..

Honestly, I would prefer a smaller Nexus, and might even go for the 5X despite the size.. Nexus device are best in performance (os lag eg), the rest are catching up lately!

You do know that the standard resolution in the app is set to 8M, right?.. I did read its better at that res, but you should maybe try and change it, it goes up to 23 you know..

[Xperia Z5 Compact General] RiTCHiE007:
Yup, because before it was out i judged on sample photo's and now that i own 1 i can confirm it that everything is knew before buying 1 was true. Even in clear daylight most photo's always seem to have a bit of blur on the right side. And batterylife is a bit wonky.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] supercakefish:
Sorry to hear that. I had the same problem (except on the left edge instead), returned for a replacement and the second one is much better. It only blurs out the very far corners and only rarely, most pictures are fine. Have you still time for an exchange?

My battery life experience is pretty decent.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] RiTCHiE007:
No but i can always send it back to the repair center because they sold me a faulty unit but i need to make more photo's to give it a final judgement tho. Which color phone you got and what rev number is on the box if i may ask? :)
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] supercakefish:
Yellow. 1298-3810 Rev 1. My first one which had the blur was also the exact same though so I'm not sure whether that number means all that much.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] RiTCHiE007:
Yea guess the color has nothing to do with is then because lots of white one's have the most problems it seems.
[General Questions and Answers] another_pdx_geek:
Newegg has dozens of 10" tablets in the $60-$80 range and I'm not picky, but the first one I tried was not recognized by ADB and had no supported usb driver. Can anyone recommend a cheap tablet that's usable by Android developers? Has anyone ordered a no-name (e.g. IRULU, Wanxin, Alldaymall, vitalASC, etc) and gotten ADB to recognize it?

Hi, I posted in the device device suggestion thread but that seems pretty phone-centric, and this is more a question for developers. This is for a 2-way mirror project and I'll post pix and code when I'm done if anyone's curious.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kurobei:
Hi. So, last night, my phone was sitting and charging when I started hearing it vibrate. I looked at it and saw that it was suddenly on the Verizon splash screen. No big deal, it just reboot for whatever reason. But then it kept doing it. It boots up, gets to the lockscreen, starts loading things, and then kicks back out to the Verizon screen.

Reflashing everything fixes it. Safe mode does not. It doesn't happen in recovery mode either.

I've pretty much resigned myself to having lost this, though I did make a backup of everything, restoring it just causes the problems to come up again.

Is there any way I can keep it stable long enough to at least back up the contacts and stuff? Or a way to kill whatever is causing it?

[General Questions and Answers] rocketjordon:
Hello everybody,

Ok, so I am looking for a new phone and the Honor 4x came up, especially now when there are both CM and Mokee ports being developed. Anyway, retailers here in Finland seem to be marketing this as having a octa-core Snapdragon 410 SoC:

(As a new user cannot post the link)

Since I have never seen a phone with an octa-core Snapdragon 410 before, that made me suspicious. So I took the product code (51094461) and did some googling, and basically all non-finnish retailers are listing this one having the HiSilicon 620 SoC

(As a new user cannot post the link)

So, finally I went down to the local Gigantti and checked the settings to see if they had just listed the wrong number of cores in the add. However, in the phone settings it states that it has 8 cores, so... I guess they did not get the number of cores wrong but the SoC. They must be selling the HiSilicon one, right? Not the Snapdragon 410 one? (The guys working at the store had of course no clue...)

Follow up question, are there any custom roms for HiSilicon Honor 4x. After a quick look at the forums and some googling I came up empty handed.

Thanks in advance!

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
You mean SIM unlocked or bootloader unlocked. Or both?

If bootloader unlocked, you need to relock it with fastboot command: fastboot oem lock

Then you will want to run the Lollipop RUU on a PC (preferably not Win10).

Backup any personal data you want to keep before relocking bootloader and/or running RUU, as those steps

will wipe

all data on the phone (including internal storage).

Also, are you using AT&T as your carrier?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] nadir5191:
My carrier is AT&T also its SIM unlock & running teamwin

where can i find the fastboot command: fastboot oem lock & Lollipop RUU on a PC (preferably not Win10).
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] sd_shadow:
fastboot oem lock

is the command used with fastboot.exe

See [how to] lock/unlock your bootloader without htcdev(s-off required) by scotty1223

ROM Update Utility (RUU) is a Windows compatible executable (.exe) which will flash a complete software image to your device, including ROM, hboot, radio, stock recovery, and firmware. This is a handy method to return to (nearly) stock condition;

see [INDEX] AT&T One (M8) Resources Compilation Roll-Up (Updated 9/4/15) by redpoint73
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
Section 1 on the above link is useful (setting up adb). But to avoid any confusion it should be noted that Section 2 (which also requires s-off) is not necessary. Section 2 method is only needed if you want to "hack" the bootloader screen to say LOCKED.

Simply setting up adb/fastboot, then opening Windows command prompt and typing command (after changing directory to the proper fastboot.exe location) fastboot oem lock will make the bootloader say RELOCKED which is sufficient to run the RUU. Also, this is possible with s-on.

[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] kientrongtran:
thanks for the effort you have put into making this. a big file (4 times the usual bootanimation size but totally worth it).

However, On My Z ultra, 5.1.1, the fist few seconds starting from the transitioning from "Android" text with white background to blue background is a messy lag and blurry waves..But after that, the looping animation is really fluid with crisp-looking blue waves, and not a single hiccup again. :D
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] alone_in_dark:
I left the white background in the beginning for clear view of "android" animation and then gradually made it to blue.. :) It was a lot of work to change the color.. :p I don't face any lag on my XZ2.. Don't know about older devices.. Hope you enjoy the boot animation.. :)
