I was having difficulty doing a backup with TWRP prior to attempting S-off

I thought SuperSU may be a problem so I attempted to do an update. I am not able to load the SuperSU Binary and/or do not how to properly install it with TWRP.

When I attempt TWRP recovery I get the following errors:

"No os installed! Are you sure you wish to reboot"

updating partition details

E: unable to mount /cache

E: unable to mount /system

E: unable to mount /cache

Kernel does not have support for reading cont exts.

unable to boot /cache

running boot script

finished running boot script

unable to mount E: /cache

When I power down and reboot I get a # in the status bar that wants me to load the SuperSU update which does not seem to be working.

How do I fix/mount the partition as it stands TWRP will not allow me to select the Cache partition?

Do I need to restore a back-up?

Factory reset?

Install the latest OTA that is waiting on the status bar?

Thanks

guys, I need firmware 0PHIMG.ZIP or RUU.exe containing stock lollipop 2.9.401.1 or 2.9.401.2 as I'm sending my phone to repair and my software flag is still modified in fastboot. Any alternative ways instead?

** I'm S-ON and I can't downgrade to kitkat **
[HTC Desire Eye] Rouz.:
The one available is for KitKat, and you can't flash it because it is considered a downgrade.

Unless you are S-off. Only S-off devices can downgrade via RUU

I just got the LG Lancet (Android version) through Verizon and there is not a spot for it on this site yet. Just curious if a moderator could start one or give me some insight on how to start one. It is a pretty new phone but would love to get some developing started for it and an area to ask questions and get answers.

It's the Google Camera app. It may have some slightly newer Google apps, but they'll end up in the Play Store shortly anyway, and other changes will be pushed to AOSP. So again, what is so special about it? It's not like it's going to magically give you a better camera sensor or fingerprint reader.

Yet another major article update.
[General Topics] Menneisyys:
UPDATE (08/26/2007): PocketGamer.org frontpage & featured review (no direct links can be given to top-of-the-page banner announcements; hence the screenshot)
[General Topics] Menneisyys:
Yeah, you've guessed right: another update.
[General Topics] Menneisyys:
UPDATE (11/22/2007): version 1.11 has just been released. It contains several bugfixes and, what is even more important, balance changes. Please read this update BEFORE reading the main review because I haven’t updated the latter in order to keep it consistent.

Fire / Diablo: instead of 4, it only heals the target fire creature for 3 (fortunately, increasing its strength is not changed). Casting the spell costs 1 Fire (instead of 0). This makes this card considerably less recommended than previously.

Fire / Infernal has been made MUCH cheaper (10 instead of 13), which really extends its functionality. While, previously, I had little chance of using this card (I just didn’t have the necessary Fire elements and an additional, preferably low-cost like the now-strengthened “Fire / Imp” cards on the board most of the time), now I’ve found myself using it much more frequently.

Fire / Imp has been made MUCH stronger (14 vs. 9), which makes it much more useful, particularly if, used together with the now much more frequently used Fire / Infernal (you need to wait until you get the necessary Fire elements to summon Infernal) or the, unfortunately, somewhat degraded Fire / Diablo.

Life / Avatar, while it was not only completely useless, but also heavily noxious in the previous version, has become pretty useful now. For 10 Life points, you get a card with a very high HP (and an, unfortunately, pretty mediocre attack). Now, the damage taken is just the opposite of what was before: instead of damaging the owner by the same amount originally received by Avatar, the damage is done in the opposite way. That is, when the owner is damaged, Avatar is also damaged by the same amount. If you can make sure your owner won’t (really) be damaged in the near future, then, Avatar may be a decent pick.

The damage of Lightning Bolt has been increased to 6 (from 5). A decent move – for 4 Air, the previous version was pretty much overpriced, taking the other ways of damaging the enemy owner into account.

As far as Water / Tython is concerned, it’s now slightly stronger. (More HP (16 vs. 15) and attack (4 vs. 3)) and its casting no longer costs water elements. I’m not entirely sure this was a nice idea – after all, Tython has already been THE best and most cost-effective way for mass re-healing. Now, a player )if the other doesn’t have it) owning this card will be next to unbeatable (if he’s playing using the right strategy and is, otherwise, decent)

Bug fixes:

AI no longer casts Scylla's abilities too much. Oh dear, now, we can’t take advantage of this bug to quickly bump up our Water elements…

Leviathan, Nixie, Demon - elemental issues solved. (No more exchange nothing for fire/water).

Fixed cast cost for Spider.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] crazililazn:
Hey guys,

So I just bought bought a G920T1 and I am aware that it is the same hardware as the G920T with a few software differences (missing download booster). Knowing this, is it safe for me to use the root methods/custom recoveries/custom firmwares of the G920T on my phone?

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] serio22:
Yes. And by custom firmwares I assume you mean custom roms
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] stylin350:
Yup, they are exactly the same phone. So use Unikernel to root, TWRP for recovery, and firmware of choosing.

One thing tho is if you wanna use the unlocking method with Metro which use codes. Then don't flash any TMO modem and bootloader as you will lose the unlock. Just update them to lastest 5.1.1 from sammobile or OTA if you need to. Other then that you should be good to go.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] crazililazn:
Yeah, it's been awhile since i've been back on xda :P

I bought the phone off swappa and it was listed under the T-mobile S6 section, but I noticed that the model number in the pictures was G920T1. I'll probably ask the seller how he unlocked his phone. So flashing a custom ROM should be fine, right? Based on my previous experience flashing my older S3, flashing modems were usually a different .zip than the ROMs and I don't really remember all too much about bootloaders.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] stylin350:
Yeah flashing custom rom is fine as they don't include the modem nor bootloader. It's just that most newer roms require you to have the lastest bootloader and modem for best experience. Sorry didn't mean to confuse you more, but G920T and G20T1 are the same phone. Some people just swap firmwares between TMO and Metro as the G920T1 is easier to unlock. I have the same version G920T1 and bought code off of ebay to unlock easily.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] crazililazn:
Alright, then can I upgrade to the newest Metro bootloader to keep my unlock and then install the newer ROMs? Or would I lose my unlock that way.?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] stylin350:
Correct and you'll keep the unlock.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] crazililazn:
Hello again, about to get my S6 soon and was wondering if you could point me to some root methods that would work without breaking fingerprint scanner or tripping KNOX. It's been awhile since I've been back in the rooting scene and was hoping you could point me in the right direction. Also, if I want to keep my unlock and upgrade to Tmo 5.1.1 stock, I would flash the Tmo ROM with a Metro bootloader?

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mhughes1966:
Ok I have been reading around but I have what I think is a moot question but i have not heard it answered specifically before.

I currently have a Galaxy Nexus (completely stock) phone with grandfathered unlimited on Verizon. I use an app called Extended Controls from the Google play store and by turning on the widget app for wifi hotspot I have been getting free use of my unlimited for when I am working out of range of any decent wifi.

Since my device was not updated past 4.2.2 I am now wanting to buy the new Nexus 6P for Christmas ( I have had the same Galaxy Nexus for 4 years! - no case either).

From what I have been reading once I get Verizon to give me the new sim and add me to the account to maintain my unlimited (after I pay full price ) I will no longer be able to use this app to gain access to my free wifi hotspot.

It seems that other people's methods (foxfi etc - I never used any other besides Extended Controls) no longer work but I have not seen anyone here mention having used Extended Controls.

So my questions are :

1) when I get the Nexus 6P - will I have to use root in order to obtain the free wifi hotspot as some others have mentioned?

2 ) is there a safe rooting for dummies yet for the Nexus 6P which is just about foolproof?

3) What is it that Verizon did that now blocks those apps - which we used before - from working now?

So I currently use about 28 - 35 GB per month so moving off unlimited is out of the question at this point. I stream music at my job - in a building where there is no wifi allowed - and I do it in my car as part of my cummute (45min - 1hr ) getting to work. I cannot imagine buying a $650 phone as nice as the Nexus 6P and not having the ability to use my unlimited the way I still do now.

I have done a few searches in the 6P thread but I didn't see anyone mention the Extended Controls app not working and they don't say it does work on the Google Store.

thank you in advance for anyone to steer me in the right direction. At this point I will be lucky to get a 6P by Christmas and hopefully by then have a few days vacation to figure out how to get the phone working like I need it to work.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phazmos:
Hmmmmm, if memory serves me correctly (had the same phone, same plan from vz - but over 2 yrs ago), I never had to use an app for hot spot - but - I unlock/root as soon as I get a device and run custom roms/kernels.

So, again, if I remember, part of vz tweaking the os is hiding the Android native hot spot feature. So, by getting stock Android, you'll have that feature, and shouldn't need any special apps - you can even add a tile to the quick settings drop down to switch hot spot on/off.

If I also remember, there was an entry added by some carriers in a database on the phone that would check if hot spot was allowed by the carrier - when carriers would charge separately for hot spot data. Most if not all custom roms at the time were kind enough to fix that for ya - yet another good reason to unlock and root.

What you could try is - cutting down your present SIM - and just using it in the new device. My understanding is if you already have an activated SIM, you can just use it in a new device, no need to get vz involved - which is always a good thing imho.

I'd Google - cut down SIM - you'll get tons of info and how tos on the subject. I'm planning on doing this when my 6p comes in.

Lol - this is what I said to Verizon when I got my n5 2 years ago;

"I've been waiting about 15 years to say this - cancel my forking account"

Verizon never had coverage where I lived, not even calls, so I was paying $125/month for 2 lines - pay for each text, sharing like 700 minutes talk between 2 lines - and never really able to use any of it!

Unlimited talk/text and 5 gigs a month fit $45 on straight talk now - and I can make calls and text from home now. Would never go back to Verizon!
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mhughes1966:
Phazmos,

Thanks for the reply but I am probably still a little confused.

If I remember correctly when the Nexus 6 came out many did what you suggest - cut their sim to fit - but the phone didn't always register as an official verizon device. Unfortunately my company provides me with a 17% discount on my monthly bill but only if you can prove that your phone is officially on the network. Verizon actually calls me every year to reverify it.

I am not sure how Extended controls works on the 4.2.2 version Galaxy Nexus I have now but I am pretty sure that it turns on the wifi hotspot without Verizon knowing about it. If I go straight to the "portable wifi hotspot" part of my settings then it comes up with the same error as everyone else on Verizon without wifi hotspot enabled. But "this .99 app- Extended Controls - just turns it on ... on the sly.

If the new version of the 6P has that feature and I just turn it on then Verizon will charged me. - I am already going to have to eat the extra $20 per month.

I am planning on buying the phone through Google but I will have to talk to a couple of the main Verizon stores here to guarantee that they will turn on my new sim (I am scared of cutting my current sim- what if I **** it up then I have no phone not even the Nexus!)

I have heard of people convincing the store manager to activate their new micro sim in a store model and then put it in the phone.

I am so leary of spending $650 and then having them refuse to activate it correctly.

Also I have always been afraid of rooting because I figured that right out of the box I could have a brand new $650 brick on my hands.

What I do know is that I cannot continue with this dinasour that I have now! It is way past it's prime days.

I really would like to switch over to something like T-mobile but even here in Northern VA - their coverage lacks in too many areas that I travel to.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phazmos:
Registering as official may be a problem - a problem with most any unlocked device. Carriers, vz in particular, can be real touchy about devices not supplied by them.

Oh, took a look at that app on play store - guess what - I also bought that app! Had to be like 3 or 4 years ago! Was surprised to see "purchased" when I found it. But, I didn't have to use it for hot spot, not after unlocking/rooting and loading custom roms.

I never used hot spot much, mostly when our network would go down - I'd for up the hot spot to get a few co-workers internet access till it came back up, and I'd just use native Android hot spot. That tells me you have the database thing going on. If I remember, that would send the native hot spot through a certain gateway (I think) and if you didn't have access, browsers would be redirected to the "sign up for hot spot" page from the carrier.

I also thought most carriers, vz included, didn't care about hot spot usage any more. There was a BIG stink about that a few years back - as in you're paying for data - how you use it is up to you, not the carrier. As I recall, there were a few law suites from users.

Anyway - since the new device isn't carrier supplied - or approved as they like to call it, you'll have other issues when going the new SIM/imei not in their database route.

A note on SIM trimming - it's super easy - and if you do screw it up - tell them you lost service and tried pooping the SIM out, then you dropped it and the dog ate it and get another! They want your $$$ - believe me - they'll give you another. I'd even "mention" to them you're gonna get this device - which works on any carrier, and mention att, tmobile and any other carrier - and you'd be more than happy going to a carrier that does support the device. Again, they want your $$$, they'll accommodate - and try to get ya to a new limited data plan - beware!

And a note on unlocking/rooting - real easy and real reliable on that device - same for any nexus device, especially if gotten from Google. The nexus line is actually for developing the os and apps. You could say it's made to load custom Android versions - when you want to test, you do it on a nexus.

PS - I resurrected my gnex a few months ago - loaded lollipop on it and gave it to my sister as her droid x2 finally died. It ran it pretty good for an old timer! Just like I run pretty good - for an old timer!

Good luck!
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mhughes1966:
Wow you rooted your old Galaxy Nexus and got Lollipop running? Interesting.

Maybe after I get the newer phone I will experiment on the old nexus. The screen actually still looks pretty good. it is just the way it operates on the older software that makes me want to throw it in the Potomac.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phazmos:
I did, actually unlocked/rooted a week after I got it. As soon as some development started happening, I started loading roms. Nexus devices get the most love from devs, there was a lollipop version available, so away we went. Once you're unlocked and rooted and have a custom recovery, loading roms is basically a matter of downloading it and installing it. Pretty painless.

Don't know if you've seen lollipop, but it finally made Android a beautiful looking os - Android lost the acne and grew up, so to speak. And since newer Android is made to work on many different devices with lots of different hardware, it's made to run on minimal, or marginal, hardware. The gnex certainly fits into the minimal hardware category now days.

I forgot to mention yesterday, there is another thread here - what to expect from Verizon - I think it is, where questions like this are being actively discussed.

You may get more info there - you're not the only 1 wondering about Verizon. Googling - 6p on Verizon - also gets an article or 2 on the subject. That's where I got some of my info (I've been in technology close to 20 years now, so I'm the go to tech guy for a lot of people, including more than a few Verizon users).

And always remember, there's a work around for everything, ya just gotta find it!

Oh, surprised to hear the screen was still good. The gnex had a horrible screen. Amoled displays have come a looooong way since the gnex. Mine w had a horrid blue cast to it, especially when turned down, and was starting to burn in. Never noticed the blue till I got my next phone, the nexus 5. On that the whites were actually white - I almost fell over - it was that much of a difference!
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Born<ICs:
To prepare for new 6P and nano sim you can buy a Sadapter Sim to Nano Sim adapter. Buy this quality brand only.

Visit a Verizon company store mention you'll be getting a new phone, one with nano sim like iphone or moto-x, and would they activate a new nano sim for you so you are prepared to plug and play when you get new phone. In meantime insert nano sim and adapter into your Gnex. For above you might get better cooperation going to Bestbuy vs Verizon.

.

For activating Hotspot while bypassing Verizon check, it is to be determined if any current apps like Foxfi will work. You will probably need to do the build prop edit for "tether provisioning" mentioned elsewhere. You can prep for this also by downloading tools (adb & fastboot) and Drivers to your PC.

There are some Guides on XDA to walk you through steps to get to and through the "tether provisioning" bit.
