[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] fidorulz:
Im new to the M4 from a note 3

I used to use an app called green power to turn off wifi and data when my screen was off and it would turn back on when my screen came on

This saved battery and data usage

I could see the wifi and data getting enabled when my screen would turn on

On the M4 under Power management-stamina mode it says data and wifi will be disabled when screen is off

From what I found it says

It achieves this by blocking data traffic a minute after the handset is placed on standby. Whilst doing this the phone automatically logs your IP address, meaning you are instantly connected once the phone is powered on again.

Is it normal I still see the wifi and data icons as soon as the screen is on with no delay?I figured wifi would be turned completely off as well as data when screen is on so it may take a sec r 2 fr th wifi to reconnect thus I would see nothing then H as 3G would kick in or LTE then Wifi would kick in

Wifi icon is always showing as well as data icon
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] fidorulz:
Can anyone confirm what occurs with their phone with this option on? Is wifi/3G icons still on?

Just want to know if this is normal behavior or if my data is still getting used

Hey XDA,

I just got my hands on Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge T-Mobile , its really an awesome phone. I am on Android 5.1.1 with baseband version G95TUVU3DOI1. I tried searching for couple of days to find a way to root the phone but was not successful. Is there a way to root S6 Edge, if not how to get back to older version of 5.1.1 android.

I have already tried to get back to older version of 5.1.1 with OH6 but had lots of errors like Enhanced feature stopped, Gapps has stopped and all kinds of other errors.

I hope anyone has the solution to root or downgrade the device.

Thank you:)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] AKW:
Right now it's impossible to downgrade, but if you don't care about KNOX, you can flash a custom kernel that has auto-root included (most do). I used UniKernel v8 over in the unified development section to obtain root, but again, THIS WILL TRIP KNOX AND BREAK SAMSUNG PAY. Worth it in my opinion, though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] tehsu:
is it possible to flash TWRP and run custom roms?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] AKW:
Yes. you should be able to flash TWPR before the kernel, and then just flash the kernel through TWRP, but I flashed the kernel first through ODIN, then ODIN flashed TWRP, so I can confirm that it works in that order. Once you've got TWRP, you can use that to flash whatever ROM you like, as long as it's compatilbe, of course.

EDIT: I'm currently running XtreStoLite 2.4 right now. Great for battery life with the included UniKernel v9, however some people are having issues with v9 so you may want to check out v8 instead. v9 works fine for me though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] tehsu:
Thanks, works great. For reference, I flashed unikernel then twrp then installed xtrestolite through twrp, this does void knox.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] AKW:
Awesome. Enjoy.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] xxhaimbondxx:
I'm in the same boat here. Bought a used S6 Edge and the KNOX was already tripped. However for the life of me I can't find a tutorial that could root the phone. Can anyone just provide the link for this exact version? (OI1). Also, did anyone noticed that phone is lagging a bit from time to time?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] tehsu:
EDIT: ENABLE OEM UNLOCKING IN DEVELOPER OPTIONS

All the things I used on my OI1

Download everything, last one is the ROM if you want to flash it, its 10000x better than stock.

Put the kernel into AP and flash then put twrp into AP and flash and then flash the rom through TWRP

The only reason I want the stock rom is pretty much the reason I got the phone: WiFi calling, TV remote, side night clock, etc. I managed to root the phone after bricking it this morning after flashing twrp, then flashing stock again and rooting it again. For now I'll manage without twrp since I'm not flashing roms anytime soon.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] rainishmaknojia:
Thanx man it worked like a charm!!. but before doing those steps make sure you enable OEM Unlocking in developer settings.:)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Sobaro:
Hello ,

i cannot get it to work,

Odin Failed to flash the kernel ... i get error on phone screen (Blocked by FRP Lock)

Edit: Solved the problem by turning FRP lock OFF from my Developer Optiones by turning ON OEM UNLOCKING .Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] rainishmaknojia:
Thats what i mentioned in my earlier post, got to your developer settings (if you havent enable it, enable it buy tapping 7 or more times on your build number in about phone) and enable OEM Unlocking in developer settings and keep it Enable. It should work.

flashing TWRP

HI,

I am self teaching myself all this and I just bought a locked 925t edge I just need to know the last part how do I "flash the rom through TWRP, it's right through the phone on final reboot after ap flashing the first 2??
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] xxhaimbondxx:
Have you flashed the TWRP? If so, copy the ROM zip file to phone's internal memory, enter TWRP, then go to WIPE and do a factory reset, or manually wipe cache, system, data. After that, go to INSTALL, find your ROM zip and flash it. Then reboot the phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Mannon:
copying TWRP to phone

sorry if I seem stupid, but i am confused on the flashing of TWRP, when I flash the first 2 that would put TWRP in the phone? if not then I just need to copy it to the phones internal memory utilizing smartswitch type app??
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] xxhaimbondxx:
If you flashed the TWRP with ODIN successfully, then you just need to enter recovery with combination of keys: Turn off your phone. HOLD power + home + volume up keys at the same time. It will ask you to confirm and you would push Vol up again and then enter TWRP recovery.

Personally, my phone bricked after flashing TWRP and I decided not to try it again. The stock ROM is excellent and has tons of features that integrate the phone's design. All I needed is to root it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Mannon:
cant see files

there is a problem I can see the files I extracted the rom image and twrp, but when I open Odin and put the phone download mode and select AP those files dont show, they are supposed to show as MD5 tar files correct. maybe I have the wrong versions for this phone model SM-G925T baseband G925TUVU2COF8 ON 5.1.1..... MY BOOTLOADER IS LOCKED SO i AM TRYING TO ROOT TO UNLOCK THE BOOTLOADER BY FLASHING A CUSTOM ROM...i AM DEF DOING SOMETHING WRONG...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] xxhaimbondxx:
When add the files you will be flashing in ODIN, you should see something like this:

<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..

<OSM> Binary Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..

<OSM> Please wait..

<OSM> Checking MD5 finished Sucessfully..

<OSM> Leave CS..

Then you click START and wait for the success/fail message.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Mannon:
Correct files dont show to flash

YES i UNDERSTAND ALL THAT BUT i CAN CHOOSE THE FILES NEEDED TO FLASH BECAUSE THEY SHOW IN THE FOLDER SEARCH BUT NOT WHEN CONNECTED TO ODIN AND i CLICK AP, THERE THEY DONT SHOW IN ORDER TO FLASH THE PHONE...I GIVE UP...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] xxhaimbondxx:
yelling is not going to help, lol. Just go over the instructions again step by step. Maybe flash one item at a time. First root it by flashing unikernel. That's just one click pretty much. Add it to ODIN and press start.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] AKW:
What file type are they?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] tukara:
Hello guys I flashed everything and I got rooted but now I lost Diag port. I cant connect to the phone via DIAG PORT. any solution for that. thanks in advance.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] ObrienDave:
You mean the USB port does not work?

:eek:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] tukara:
Yeah! I think that is it because of the kernel. Is there any way to get the OI1 stock kernel to flash it back?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] tehsu:
What do you mean the USB port doesn't work. Do you mean you can't set DIAG mode?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] ObrienDave:
WHAT Diag port?

This does NOT make sense
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] tukara:
Sorry guys I didnt know that this phone it is exynos and doesnt have Diagnostic port. The thing is i need to work with this phone with one box (z3x, octoplus) and the box wont detect the phone but in Thr windows device manager the phone appear as Samsung Adb so I think that it is because of the kernel. Maybe if I flash the OI1 stock kernel I could keep the phone rooted and the box would recognize the phone again. I hope now this make sense for you guys. Thanks in advance.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] tehsu:
Are you running custom Rom or just the kernel?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] tukara:
Just the kernel
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] tehsu:
You could try to do it by hand.

Something similar to this, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1833622 however if the kernel is causing it then this may not work. Just a guess as I don't have time to check. I think OI1 sources aren't available yet.

I have a S6 Edge 925T locked to T-mobile USA, if I root the phone, flash the TWRP and install the new ROM will this SIM unlock my phone?

Thanks in advance :good:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] tehsu:
Simple answer, no. Pretty sure I saw a thread for someone who does unlocking, however this will not unlock your phone. It will root your phone which is not the same thing as unlocking.

For sim unlocking Galaxy s6 edge I think it was a member called stifilz, will try to contact him. Thanks for the info :good:

Hi there, I'm having problem connecting to the internet using WIFI on my Tornado smartphone (SP5m)... it always connects but takes a while to locate the url, it says "Locating..." in Internet Explorer for a long time and then finally open up the url. To me, it looks like a DNS issue?!

And that's using my own WIFI router at home with a DSL line (5 Mbits), no firewall on it, etc.

But whenever I'm connected to any other WIFI access point (e.g. coffee shops, etc), web pages and other internet stuff would load and open as quick as any WIFI laptop, any thoughts??

Thank you all for your time,

highmighty
[Networking] highmighty:
Could it be because my personal wifi connection uses wpa encryption as oppose to no encryption at all (like in coffee shops or elsewhere)?
[Networking] richard_j_green:
I wouldn't have thought it would be anything to do with the WPA encrpytion.

I sometimes get Locating... in PIE and it hangs, then eventually appears with a DNS error.

In my case it is because PIE is trying to load the page, but at the same time the device looses the connection to the Wireless AP because it's lost signal or whatever and as a result gets a DNS error.
[Networking] highmighty:
On my end it can't be related to my device loosing the connection to the wireless AP because I'm siting next to my wireless router and the page will ALWAYS finally load up after spending couple of seconds on "Locating...". I temporarely fixed it by assigning a manual IP/subnet/gateway/dns instead of using DHCP to connect to my personnal wireless AP, now web pages are loading super fast, same as any laptop or desktop machine.

Still unsolved as to why it's doing this? Why in PIE using DHCP it stays a long time on "Locating..." while in Opera for example, and using the same DHCP settings, it loads in a jiffy?!
[Networking] rsanabria80:
DNS Problem

Hello... I had the same problem and the way to solve it is assigning a DNS server to your WiFi Connection:

Start->Settings->Connections Tab->WiFi->Network Adapters Tab-> Select IEEE 802.11b/g->Name Servers Tab

And write down the following numbers:

DNS: 80.58.61.250

Alt DNS: 80.58.61.254

Leave the WINS and AltWINS empty.

Good luck!

Cheers

Dear Friends,

I am not a Developer, and I would really need your help here. :o And Thanks in advance for your assistance.

I bought a Lenovo Vbe X2 from China and I wanted to have AP ROM in that. I have googled some and found AP Stock ROM from needrom. I downloaded it (It was Lollipop) and using SPFlash Tools, I have uploaded it. But when I clicked on download, it asked me to format it. And I have formatted it using SP Flash Tools. I have selected "Auto Format" and "Format whole flash except bootloader" then I formatted it. Later I clicked the download, new ROM uploaded. But when I inserted the SIM Card, it said invalid.

I again searched and found the engineering mode option and checked the CDS INfo>Radio>Phone 1 = It said invalid IMEI and Radio Off but Phone 2 is OK, it is having the IMEI and my SIM is working in that. :angel: Also, I am not able to see the serial number of the phone also.

I then tried to enter the command AT+EGMR=1,7,"my IMEI" but it said the command not available in the userbuild, then I gave a space between T and +, then the error was AT command is failed to send.

Then I have installed the KitKat one but no use (again from needrom). I am now not able to use the SIM1, and SIM2 is detecting really slow after each restart.

I dont have a copy/backup of ROM or NVRM???. :confused: But I do have the box and serial#, IMEI#s printed on that.

Please can any one help me with the steps to restore it? :D

Thanks Brother. I rooted the phone, and I have connected to MTK Droid Tools. But the IMEI/NVRM button has been greyed out.

I used Kingo Root to root the phone, it was not happening from phone but happened through PC. Then I connected to Droid Tools, clicked on ROOT, then my phone showed some"Shell .... " message. But the IMEI/NVRM button is still greyed out.

Then I installed Maui META 3G V8, and it asked me to install the VCOM drivers, I installed that too. (Mine is windows 10, the Device Manager doesnt include the name MediaTec. But with a yellow mark. ) However, the phone doesnt get recognised by PC. But when I connect my phone screen shows that its in meta mode, press power button to go to normal mode. When I click on power button it goes to that battery screen. Later when I click on power button on the screen, it opens up. But the phone doesnt get recognised by PC. Its MT6595.

Will it be able to root as well in the future? :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Tung_meister:
Just a heads up, you need to update the unlock command to "fastboot flashing unlock" as this is the new command for the M devices - oem unlock no longer works.​
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chevycam94:
Thanks for the heads up. Question. Is that for devices that shipped with M?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] d1ez3:
Is all data wiped when performing the unlock no matter what?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] hutzdani:
Heads up - This tool does not work for some reason, just times out every time.

Its weird if you enable ADB USB debugging via developers options and allow OEM unlock and boot into bootloader it refuses to OEM UNLOCK even when using ADB terminal commands manually

Adb Devices - Lists the device

Fastboot reboot - Works

Fastboot reboot recovery - works

Weirdness - I'll Try ADB on my chromebook see if i can do it there
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Tung_meister:
use "fastboot flashing unlock" oem unlock has been depreciated on the new nexus devices.

Yeah i can't get that to work on my ADB drivers i think i need to pull them down from google again, ill try after dinner must eat lol

I included (just in case) the 4 adb files from my current SDK, v24.4.1. I don't have my 6P yet, so I can't test it.

Also, when someone unlocks their 6P, report back here if it clobber use of the fingerprint scanner and/or Android Pay. I want to add a warning about them in the script if it does.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] tele_jas:
I used this toolkit to unlock my bootloader.... ADB OEM Unlock didn't work, but the Fastboot mode did..... After that, I tried rebooting and my phone was stuck at "GOOGLE" with the unlock under it. I waited 30 minutes and it was still there, when I rebooted I got an orange triangle "warning" about having an unlocked bootloader. I booted back into my bootloader and "tried" flashed TWRP (so I could flash a new ROM)..... It said it flashed successfully. I rebooted (I chose Recovery from the bootloader) but I could never get past the "GOOGLE" screen with the unlocked icon. I re-locked my bootloader and rebooted, then I was stuck at the "GOOGLE" screen (no unlocked icon this time). When I rebooted, I had a yellow triangle warning about my OS being tampered with and could cause corruption.

Luckily I could still boot into my bootloader via Fastboot and I side-loaded my OS again and it booted fine after that.

Now I'm scared to try this again.... Has anyone else experienced this, if so how did you finally get your 6P unlocked and flash TWRP successfully?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chevycam94:
Did you check the option "Enable OEM unlock" in Developer Settings in the OS BEFORE you did the fastboot unlock command?

The tool is universal by design, that's why there are two types of unlock commands. Only choose the one you need. "fastboot flashing unlock" is the one you want for the 6P.

Pushed up a new version. This one allows you to optimize all OGG files on your device. Specifically, the alarms, notifications, ringtones, and ui sounds.

The only thing this wont do at the moment, is deal with audio files with spaces in the name. Right now, it just skips over them, processing every file without a space. I will fix this in the next version.
