[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lewenberg:
My Galaxy s5 Will not return to stock after Odin 3.10.6 passes.

Sorry Guys I will have to keep this short. My Galaxy S5 (model number irrelvant) will not return to stock. Prior it had a custom 5.0 firmware and worked perfectly, except whenver headphones were plugin it would turn itself off. I decied to go back to stock firmware using Odin 3.10 and firmware 5.0 based on my model number.

Odin passes with green light. But I STILL HAVE MY DATA WTF?! Music and photos are still there.

Please help me reset my phone back to stock

Recap:

Model : G900T (irrelvant for my problem, I know what firmware to download)

Problem: Soft-Brick - sometimes loads rom other times black screen and rom is in the background. All data is still there, and phone does not ask you to rename phone, login to google, etc... You know the first bookup screen after reset of Rom.

Tried: Odin 3.09 and 3.10 (default settings) Firmware 4.4.2 and 5.0 multiple times.

WTF?! is going on. I cannot for the life of me understand this.:confused::(

Be my :angel: and help me out with this problem

You can go down one of two routes.....

1) go to settings >> backup & reset >> factory reset......

As far as i know this just destroys the file paths to your data.....it's still on the device, but not accessible with a file manager.....The possibility exists that it *could* be retrieved by specialist software.

2) odin flash a pit file and a firmware.

The pit file will erase and format and rebuild the data partitions on your device leaving absolutely no data behind including the firmware.....hence the need to flash the firmware again.....

If you choose option 2, make sure you are flashing the CORRECT pit file for your device variant......flashing the wrong pit will turn your phone into an unrecoverable paperweight

Help finding pit file

I never even tried to do it with a pit file. I will be googling it now and will report to you if it works out. In the meantime if anyone could direct me to the right way for the correct pit file for Android 5.0 G900t 16GB. I will edit as soon as I find it and it works out.

Crucial I get the correct Pit file, so I will not leave it up to my judgement, I really need the help here guys.

Found these pit files

I am guessing the G900T_pit_16GB is for me, but I need confirmation :)
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
Provided that you have the 'T' variant and provided that it is a 16gb model, you should be good to go.....

Though I would check in that thread to find out if they're suitable for use with odin.....I always thought that odin packages had to have a .tar extension.....and none of those pit files do....i'm not sure.....

sorry fella.....

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
Flashing a stock ROM with ODIN will NOT wipe user data

To wipe user data, factory reset your phone from recovery (Volume up & Home & Power from a powered off state)

If you still want a more thorough wipe:

Flash this PIT file at the same time as your preferred stock ROM

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2752477&d=1400519587

Extract the PIT file down to "SM-G900T_pit.pit" and add to ODIN PIT section

They have to be flashed simultaneously, PIT in PIT section, and ROM in AP/PDA section

Ensure ODIN is run as Admin

Let us know how that goes, any more issues and we'll try something else

RE-Partition Failure

Odin is not re-partitioning my phone for some reason. The phone says secure check failed for the pit. I tried both 3.10.7 and 3.09 both give me the same error.

I was able to factory reset my phone through recovery but after the samsung logo it goes black often. I have to keep removing the battery and resetting it to finally get it to load normally. After couple of hours it goes black randomly when the phone is locked.

Fixed Re-Partition Error

OK I had to hex edit all the extra 00 00 00 00 from the end of the file you gave me to finally be able to flash. But I still have the same problem. As you can see below Odin flashed the following correctly: Re-partition.pit, AP, Bootloader, CP (Modem)

The only file I could not find is CSC file for my firmware (G900TTMB1DOB1).

More info:

Kernel Version 3.4.0-4033351

Build Number: LRX21T.G900TUVU1DOB1

SE For Andriod Device: SEPF_GM-G900T_5.0_0027

At this point I think the internal memory is physically damaged... But I find it weird that at times it just works for hours.

Any ideas anyone?

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tracerit:
I placed a preorder for a 128gb graphite nexus 6p within minutes but i'm in the nov 12-13 group stil. However during the last few weeks, I've decided maybe the 6P isn't right for me yet. I'm a heavy root user (and xposed user), and my OnePlus One is pretty much tweaked to perfection. I'm considering canceling my Nexus 6P preorder and putting the money into trying out photography instead.

My question is, if I were to resell the Nexus 6P to someone else, would there be any negatives for that buyer? Will they stil get the warranty for that first year? The $50 Play credit I believe goes to the owner when they activate it on the phone itself. I'd like to resell it with no markup just so I can use the $700 purchase to get some rewards on my credit card but if there are downsides to buying it off another person, I'd just cancel my preorder.

Tittle says it all. How many nits or brightness is the screen, my phone auto corrected the tittle. Didn't realize how terrible my g2 is and its impossible to use outside which is where I am most of the time. 260 was max on nexus 6 I believe and it was just too low. S6 has something crazy like 560 so I'm hoping for something like that.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] warplane95:
The Z3 can reach 600, one of the best screen I ever had for outdoor. the Note 5 can reach 861.

How will we be able to tell what the exact nit value is on the 6p
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clorbag:
I'm not sure that's why I'm asking. Maybe it's a technical detail somewhere or in a spec sheet or possibly it gets tested somehow?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CZ Eddie:
Some Googling tells me the 6P has the same screen panel as the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge.

But the Gorilla Glass on the 6P is glossier than the Galaxy's, so outside viewing suffers from more glare.

I have not been able to find out total NIT's yet, nor if the 6P can get the "extra bright" brightness that the Galaxy phone's Auto Brightness offers on top of manual brightness.

356 nits. Another guy who loves the phone just described it as dim.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CZ Eddie:
These reviews really need to mention whether they are disabling the Adaptive Display setting. Because AFAIK, the display gets brighter when this setting is disabled.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrvirginia:
i've been wondering this as well. it's interesting you say this because according to other sources, Samsung devices are able to get brighter with Adaptive Display turned on and the display set to auto brightness. so, is it opposite for the 6P?

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Gen5:
Is there a way to increase standby time? I have used both euphoria, clean, and the stock rom with elementalx kernel with dt2w, but they dont seem to help.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] PrizmaticSmoke:
Some suggestions:

Make sure dt2w is disabled if using a kernel that supports it, it will eat up battery. If you're wanting to maximize standby time, don't use any mods/features that will cause the device's sensors to constantly "listen" while in standby. If you must use these features (or other similar ones like ambient display), understand it will decrease your standby time.

Configure your wi-fi settings to never stay on while sleeping. Similarly, turn off location and bluetooth or use airplane mode when you'll be setting the device down for a bit (or any time you're not actively using them). No need for any of the radios to be on if you're not even using the device.

Don't leave games or apps running in the background when done with the device, kill them all first. Many apps can keep the device awake (either for longer than usual or even indefinitely) if actively running. My wife plays a couple of games on her tablet that are very bad about this.

You can use GSAM battery monitor or any other similar app to see if you are experiencing any wakelocks while the device is sleeping. If so, track them down and adjust your setup accordingly.

Lots of folks also use Greenify, as it can do the job for you of making sure some of the wakelock-happy apps stay hibernating.

Hope some of that helps.

Do you have insurance on your device? If so, you can return it, pay the deductible and get a replacement.

If you don't have insurance, you can possibly have it replaced under the manufacturer's one year warranty, either through LG or your carrier. I believe you can just say that your phone doesn't turn on anymore, etc. Others who have gone this route can chime in.

Hey Guys,

can anyone help me to get rid of the clock on the lockscreen? I don't want a big ass clock there!!! just a regular clock on the statusbar would be good enough. I just wanna have the Lockscreen to my wallaper.

For any help/advice/tips on how to achieve this I would be very grateful. I hope I don't have to decomplie systemui or anything.... maybe thru the new themes function? I saw they can change the font color and so on... maybe setting it to 100% transparency?

with help of a xposed module called Costum Text I was able to get rid of the text at the bottom saying something like swipe to unlock! U know my s6 is set to german and in german the swipe to unlock text is like 2 full sentences!!! Who needs that? like WTF? as if someone after using his phone for 5 minutes hasn't already figured out how to unlock his phone!!! am i the only one who thinks that about the text @ the bottom?

So u just install costum text and choose the app u want to change the text for in this case it's systemui. There u will be presented with bubbles where u can put in the original text that u want to change. Fox example u put in Swipe screen to unlock it has to be 1:1 like Swipe not swipe. And then u just put a blank space in the new text field if u want it to disappear, otherwise u can also put anything u want.

Wow so glad I opened this thread! So the only thing that's left is the Phone Icon but i think that can be solved by setting the transparency to 100% of that Icon which should be in systemui or the systemui theme apk... I will have a look at this in few days I need access to a windows machine and I hope samsung uses .png's and not this qmg shiz.... the shortcut will be still intact but at least not visible which is still good enough for me.
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] FdeKlerk:
Hahaha, very good idea. I hope you succeed because i use themes on my phone. And previously lollipop v5.0.2 I was able to take out the qmg from the theme\lock-1\base.apk and convert to png, make it transparent and put back the png into the apk without decompiling. That work, camera and ecall was transparent. Now if i try it with the new themes on lollipop 5.1.1 the apk fails toe work and the default theme is loaded.

So yes, if you can change the systemui for lock screen then it would be superb..:good:

But i am glad to help.:D
