[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nerys71:
I have a nasty problem recording video with my samsung devices (seems to be all of them from S3 to my Note 4)

it adds a rotation tag or some sort to the video. if you start a video with an "unclear" orientation (say flat screen up point straight down) this problem becomes apparent.

or if you hold the phone upright portrait and record a video but then turn it landscape it "keeps" the video in portrait for playback (yes this includes once I upload to youtube extremely annoying)

I will record a video normally and it will be "vertical video" (portrait) instead of landscape like I am holding it.

or as with today the video was rotated 180' upside down.

Is there an app I can install that will let me strip/reset this rotation tag so all my videos playback "landscape" proper and not 90' or 180' ? ie let me "correct" the dumb meta tag rotation tag or whatever it is samsung adds to the video causing it to do this.?

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fireball0093:
Jeeze, after all the tinkering that I have done with this phone in back in the days, you'd think I would know what to do in this situation haha. But if anyone is still out there, I'm having a bit of an issue. The one rom I want to flash on this phone so I can temporarily use it for a few days whilst in between upgrading phones, Desire Gingerbread Sense v1.2 refuses to flash for some reason. I keep getting Status 0, installation aborted in CWM and I have never had the issue in the past, same file I have used in the past as well. I originally thought it might be due to it having an EXT 4 filesystem from a prior rom, but I flashed a few GB roms and then tried reflashing it, and still spitting out the same thing. If I solve this on my own I'll post my remedy, just found it odd.

-Edit-

Welp, exhausted all options. Redownloaded the file, tried different recoveries, formatted my SD card, etc to no avail. Turns out in the end it wasn't worth it since the SIM slot no longer reads SIM cards. So, time to bust out my ancient iPhone 2G as a temporary phone for a few weeks xD

-11/29/15 Edit-

Yet another update on this. I'm one to not give up on certain things so I mildly opened up the phone and managed fixed the sim slot, no progress on the rom getting to flash though

Hey guys,

My phone is pretty badly physically broken - literally snapped in the middle. Some photos of the damage here, (apologies as I can't post links because I'm a new user):

back - cl.ly/image/3e2I2V3T0h3A

front - cl.ly/image/2g122G360A44

side - cl.ly/image/0R3B3V3Z0p3g

I'd really like to recover some of the data on there that wasn't backed up online and was wondering if I was to remove the main board and transplant it into another Nexus 5 whether this would boot as normal and allow me to access the storage? The board I'm referring to is this one: ifixit.com/Teardown/Nexus+5+Teardown/19016#s53729 (Step 10).

Haven't got much experience changing parts like this around, though I do know the phone is relatively easy to take dismantle. I'm really just hoping to be able to get it live for long enough to save my data to move over to a new phone.

Thanks for any advice.

I am extremely satisfied with the stock marshmallow (MRA58N) . The only thing that bothers me is that I need to save my power button (random power off issue when pressing power button, may fail completely in near future). Right now I am using gravity screen app to use my proximity sensor to wake the device. This does not work all the time. I end up using the power button.

I know almost all the custom rom out there supports volume rocker to wake. But I dont want to move to custom rom. So the way is to root. So here is my question

1. Will unlock the boot loader

2. Flash StephanMc_Kernel

3. Install twrp

4. Flash super su

SM-T815

I have try to root with odin and cf autoroot and all work fine, then I have installed twrp for 815 5.0.2 version. After the installation the tablet restart on recovery mode, I try to make a backup and twrp works good but at the restart the tablet is in bootloop.

I can’t shut down. I can only access download mode and not recovery mode.

I have flashed the original firmware with odin and odin says PASS but at the restart it is bootloop again. I try to flash twrp again and odin says PASS, after this I can read on the start screen (the only one I can see) “recovery is not nandroid enforced”. I tried different firmware but nothing work.

Someone can help me?

Hi All!

I would like to share with you how I fix the preblem after root of my T815.

After long night and reading whole net ;) I found the solution.

As you I also wants to root my device because of availible only one user. I wanted to have multiusers. So folowing the instructions downloading all software and after root I got bootloop. Trying everithing but no success. I wasn't able to flash even some of the stock ROMs.

Solution:

I found in Sammobile what is my current ROM and downloaded it. Then flash - no any problems. Went smooth. Then I root the device... and now I have rooted device with multiuser support.

It seems that after fresh flash everithing is OK. It seems that after you playing with your device for a while you enabled some options thats make your device to loop after root.

I wish you Happy New Year!

Ok flash this via Odin, if it boots it should boot directly to TWRP. Ive had to use high compression to make it fit so hopefully it will still boot. If it does, make sure you can mount all the partitions. Wipe data and system then reboot to download mode and then flash the stock firmware. Wait at least 20 mins for the first boot after flashing for boot to finish.

WOOOHOOOO!!!! I finally figured out how to unbrick my tab, by flashing the correct kernel in Odin. In my case, I downloaded the correct permissive kernal from here "[KERNEL] Permissive Lollipop 5.1.1 kernel for T710/T810", then I flashed it through Odin.

1. First, I had to reboot the tablet by holding Power and the Volume Up and the Volume Down and home all at the same time for 5 seconds. Then once the tablet powered off to restart, I quickly let go of just the volume up button, and only held the power button, volume down, and home button. TADA..... Now you are in the blue screen "Download Mode"... ..then press Volume up

2. Right click on Odin3 3.10.7, and choose "Run as Administrator

3. Connect tablet to the computer via USB.... Then you shuld see a blue COM:7 (or other number) box in Odin. If you don't, make sure to install the Samsung Drivers on your computer.

4. Click AP button, then choose the correct Permissive Kernel you downloaded.

5. Hit "Start".... The tablet should restart withing a few seconds.... and...

6. Tablet is working perfect again, restarting perfectly, 100% back to brand new baby!!! Woohooo!!!!!!!

Hope this works for you!

If you flash a new firmware via Odin, it will take some time before the tablet is usable. This is because Android's ART has to compile every single app on the device.

As to the recovery itself, "Recovery is not SEAndroid Enforcing" is normal. That is simply the bootloader warning you and nothing to be concerned about. Question is, what version of TWRP did you install and where did you install it from? One of the TWRP releases didn't function on Samsung devices.

Hello,

My tablet came with OJ1 installed. I then Odin to PB1. These are both U2 firmwares. (Revision 2?)

Please confirm that it is possible to roll back to OH7, which is U1 firmware.

Once you're on Revision 2, doesn't the base band get locked to where you can't roll back to a U1 firmware like OH7?

If I am able to roll back to OH7 (Revision 1), even though my tab came with OJ1 (Revision 2), that would be excellent...

I'm in need of some help guys. if anyone can come up with some ideas, anything, ill appreciate it. :D

Ok, so i just got this phone, and it doesn't wanna work on any other network other than EE (I'm on 3 & I'm honestly comfy where I am).

I go to a few shops in my town (EE & 3 to name a few.) to see what they would say and i don't get much out of them. but i did notice that the phone doesn't recognize its own IMEI, what i mean is, it shows 0 in the imei field in settings.

I've gone online and found out that might be my culprit for why the phone wont work on any network (but I'm curious as to why EE accepted it....).

So I go about trying to fix it & after a quick google search, watching some video, installing drivers, downloading some qualcomm software (QPST).... i try and connect to the phone via its com port and I'm drawing blanks. :(

now, the device manager see's the phone's com port (assigned COM6) but the software im trying to use (RF NV Manager) doesnt see said device at said com port. :eek:

I've tried changing the com port to 41, as other videos state to do.

I've uninstalled the driver and reinstalled them multiple times....

I even made sure i had the more up to date driver version (3.14 instead of 3.13) and I'm still no closer.

I have also tried to search google for this problem about com ports not working and didnt find any info that could help. possibly my search terms are way off ("google didnt find answer; your doing it wrong" :p)

my serial number does start with 506 and I've just found out that G4's made before October (510) might have main board/logic board issues. :crying:
