[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
You CAN'T flash a custom recovery on a locked bootloader. You will have to use Odin to flash back to stock 4.4.2. If King root and towelroot do not work then you may be out of luck to be able to root it.

[MENTION=4635005]ShapesBlue[/MENTION] returning to stock isn't a problem I have a friend that works at bestbuy Samsung store & has factory reset this phone twice back to stock, my concern is how to get a working recovery or is there any other way flash or install zips without a custom recovery?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] landshark68:
As shapes wrote above, safestrap is your only option.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] slimcyril:
[MENTION=3490169]landshark68[/MENTION] got it, Just watched few videos on YouTube about safestrap & it looks interesting
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dawgdoc:
Keep in mind that once you have safestrap working there is still very little in the way of ROMs that you can flash on an i535 with the 4.4.2 bootloader and modem. You are limited to the stock rom, SuperLiteROM, and PaulPizz Rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] slimcyril:
[MENTION=5575315]dawgdoc[/MENTION] I will still to stock Rom but am I able to flash zip files and cool stuffs?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dawgdoc:
I don't recall having delved into that with Safestrap. Currently my i535 is unbootable, see here for an explanation. A good place to check for the answer to your question would be the thread for the modified Safestrap intended for the i535 on the 4.4.2 bootloader.

Well its off-topic but you need to decompile your launcher if its samsung launcher then its SecLauncher2.apk or touchwiz30launcher.apk then go to res/xml here you will find the arrangements modify it then compile push it to your device and then clear data for the launcher

hi guys i recently edited my build prop now my phone is stuck on the black screen i was able to flash cwm onto the phone i tried flashing stock 4.4.4 kitkat from sony and it says error i dont know what to do can someone please help
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] vegeta_badman:
I had soft bricked my t mobile galaxy s6 g920t. i flashed it odin with the latest firmware g920tuvu3doj7 but after that the phone reboots and the android guy appears and say erasing and then the phone reboots again and gets stuck on the samsung logo.

i wiped cache partition and data/factory reset but still not use.....the phone reboots and gets stuck on samsung logo

i saw in some forum that i need to flash again with odin with the BL and AP box but the site was Vietnamese and i couldn't understand it .

any help would be appreciated...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] tocirah1:
Have you tried re-flashing the firmware?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] vegeta_badman:
yep, tried it but still the same problem.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] lorddart:
If you're upgrading to the latest you may have to separately flash the modem and bootloader Of the new one idk for sure though
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] vegeta_badman:
this is my first android phone so i'm a noob , do you mean i need to flash my phone again with another files from odin?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] tyrone1:
Try waiting, sometimes can take 10-15 minutes for it to fully load. Be patient. Does it ever get past the samsung logo where it gets to white screen with Tmobile in pink animation?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] tyrone1:
There the problem frp lock on. So maybe try to flash firmware you were coming from first. Then get that up and running again. Then turn off frp then update after.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] tyrone1:
I think you can go into recovery and see what recovery version you on. That might help too. When power is off then hold up home and power. It will not into recovery and give you more clues.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] vegeta_badman:
My phone was sent from usa and i live in a different country and also i don't know what firmware the phone came with and right now i flashed with latest 5.1.1 build . so can i flash it with old firmware (5.0.2) to figure out which one works or do i need to do something else.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] tyrone1:
I would try to flash do1 full firmware then see if you can boot.

Do not attempt to flash anything older than DO1 because that boot loader can't be downgraded.

So try flashing full DO1 and see if you can boot.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] vegeta_badman:
i flashed with DO1 but i had the same issue and tried to flash with OH6 but failed with odin.......i think my problem was that when i flashed with OJ7 i didn't turn frp lock....i didn't know i had to turn it off
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] vegeta_badman:
guy i just got the bootloder and the modem files for OI1 , when do i flash them ? do i do it before or after the AP flash on the odin
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] tyrone1:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=62626134

Maybe research this method. Sounds similar to what you got. What happens when you flash full DO1?

Anyone else got ideas?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] vegeta_badman:
thanks i'll look into it and when i flash with DO1 it flashes but the same problem is still there

there are three 5.1.1 firmware and the latest two flashes with odin but the oldest one which is the OH6 fails when i try to flash it with odin
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] tyrone1:
Once you are on DO1 you can't flash back to OH6. Was your phone originally on DO1? Or an older firmware?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] vegeta_badman:
i bought this phone online and the seller also doesn't know what the original firmware was... and yes i can only flash DOJ7 and DOI1 , the DOH6 flash always fails..... still the same problem though with both flashes.....after i flash i wipe factory and cache from recovery but the phone is still stuck on the initial samsung logo..... i think my main problem is that i flashed without turning off the FRP and TWRP flash is block by FRP lock
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] tyrone1:
Maybe someone can suggest a solution or take to Samsung repair shop in your country
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] vegeta_badman:
yeah that'll be my last option....still thanks a lot for trying to help out really appreciate it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] trungctu:
Please send me the link in Vietnamese, I hope my translating can help you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] makki666:
it is fixable, but you have to send it for repair.

Your phone is missing a DRK "DevRootKey"

if you boot into recovery, you will see that fail message about DM- Verify faild.

anyway contact me on private, or search on google SalaxyCell.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] vegeta_badman:
thanks for the reply...i sent my phone to a repair center and they fixed it.....

however since i don't live in USA and the phone is locked to tmobile and i bought the phone off some random dude.... it seems that everytime i install a new gamil account after unlocking the phone it gets lock again by FRP ........can you tell me anyway around FRP lock
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] makki666:
go to any repair shop in your city, and they will take it off for you.

or use the OTG method.

not sure if it works on new version or not.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] hoangps:
Cause FRP is ON and drk partition on your phone is damage,its make stuck on logo,but i can fix it :D safe and fast via teamview arround in the world without send phone to me :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] larrylong:
Hi my firend, I got the same problem and find out easy solution, might be help you.

If FRP Lock ON, it will be more difficult but can temp solve.

If FPR Lock OFF, it will be very easy.

You need download latest stock firmware. Change name xxxxxxxxx.tar.md5 to become xxxxxxxx.tar only. After that you use 7z app extract this file, you will get 6 or 7files inside, now delete file cache.img. Then using 7z repack the rest files to xxxxx.tar.

Open odin and add the above repack file.tar to AP. All things will run until pass and you phone will be reset and reboot normaly without problem.

Try it, might it help.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] vegeta_badman:
i live in nepal so it's difficult for me to send the phone......i do however have the gmail account of the previous owner that was synced with the phone so the FRP issue is solved......anyways thanks for the advise but i was too frustrated and already sent the phone at a repiar shop
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] vegeta_badman:
i did try something like this but the problem was that after i compressed the files again using winrar into a .tar file and flashed with odin nothing happened ( i clicked the start button on odin but nothing happened in odin or the phone for about 5-10 minutes and after that i disconnected ).....i don't know if flashing with a .tar takes a long time or not because as soon as i flash with .tar.md5 file it either works or fails within few seconds
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] larrylong:
You should use 7z. When you use odin,it check faster than normal. It should be ok
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] core720:
extract only system and convert ,tar and flash again only system fix
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] dcalero:
i tried this and it worked, but i noticed something weird the tmobile dialer app doesnt have the wifi calling or the video calling option. i disabled frp and then i went in to recovery just to look at the log and then i got stuck again at the s6 logo screen when i rebooted from recovery. so i figured i would try flashing the full rom again since i thought maybe it was fixed but nothing. i was only able to get it back by flashing the tar with no cache.img. is there anyway to fix this correctly ? i would like to have the wifi calling and video calling. some one said to try flashing everything manually but i dont know what files go into each odin field. thank you for your help.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] dcalero:
okay i believe i understand the problem better but i have no real way of fixing. i bought this phone on ebay and the person who sold it to me unlocked it. I wish he wouldnt have because it appears all the drk crap is related to the unlock method. The minute i updated the phone to the latest firmware thats when i started having all the problems. i also notice the imei doesnt even match the imei that is on the box the phone came in. I have another s6 and i verified that the imei matches the other box. it appears that you can fix this problem by using some software called GCPRO-Key but the software cast 150 bucks. The other fix is by flashing it without the cache.img but that seems to be a temporary fix(the minute you go back into recovery and reboot it gets stuck again with the same error). Does anyone know of a way to fix the DRK using odin or some other method? it would be greatly appreciated.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] tyrone1:
Have you tried putting the IMEI on back of the phone into tmobile's IMEI checker/verify website? http://www.t-mobile.com/VERIFYIMEI.ASPX

If it says its a bad IMEI then it not worth investing more into that phone. The IMEI that currently flashed into your phone could work for now but in the future who knows. It is not the phone's original IMEI. Could be a stolen phone or someone just didnt pay the phone's bill.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] dcalero:
well i did exactly what you told me to do and guess what both IMEI the one on the phone and the one on the box it with came are bad. But now im more confused if the imei is bad how was it working before with all features ? in fact its working now minus the tmobile settings i had to manually type network settings and such i can download mms before the update wifi calling worked now i have no wifi calling. This is my gf phone and it was my idea to buy it on ebay from a user who supposedly owned a store so i was buying the phone new. since its partially working is there any way to get it to fully work again? i mean if the person who sold it to me made it work im sure there has to be a way. It seems that by not flashing the cache.img it doesnt fully configure the phone for full tmobile use. I'm very disappointed i made the mistake of buying this thing online now. any suggs will be greatly appreciated. I can make calls and browse the internet. if the problem is the imei can the one i have on my s6 be used on hers without any problems?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] tyrone1:
I would ask the seller what going on. If current imei is bad there might be a chance it will stop working soon too.

I think the problem you trying to solve is being what you will find on xda because I believe changing imei etc is not allowed on xda.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] larrylong:
My one use this method and still can use wifi calling. Or If you dont mind guarantee,after flash by odin this tar without cache. Then flash by odin the unikernel v.8xx. It should be ok with wificalling

Is it just me?

My computer will only see my phone if I plug it in while it (phone) is turned on. If I power on or reboot the phone (while connected via USB) it never shows up. I have to pull the USB cable and plug it back in. I tried multiple computers JIC and same results.

I AM rooted (systemless) if that makes a difference. I guess I'll unroot to see if it has any affect. Hopefully I don't have a bad device.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fury683:
Rooting shouldn't have any impact. I have to toggle the USB connection type every time I plug into my PC. PTP seems to be the only one that recognizes for ADB. Fastboot works fine.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ntegra:
Thanks Fury, I did notice that as well. MTP would get toggled @ each plug in, but I'm talking actual connection detect not type of connection detected.

Can someone confirm normal operation on their 6P for me. I contacted Google and they are telling me it is working as designed. This would be the first phone that I have owned that is not recognized by a computer during reboot or power on. Charging seems not to be affected, only "data" connectivity...

[Fire Accessories] rybaryba33:
I prefer plastic ones. They are lighter and last longer.
[Fire Accessories] BigMosley:
Lighter yes last longer I'd say no. I've had the same glass on my Note 4 for some time now and doubt I'll ever use the extra one I bought. Plus you can't beat the feel of the glass, the plastic doesn't feel right and snags your finger now and then. I would say plastic is better only if your looking at price alone.

What's the weight difference between a 7" plastic screen protector and a tempered glass one?

I have bought tempered glass screen protectors for all my past devices, but I decided to get a matte protector. It's nice not having to see fingerprints.

I also purchased the ArmorSuit plastic screen protector solely for the price, should be delivered today. I usually buy the glass but didn't want to spend close to the amount of the tablet on a screen protector.

Not to stoke any flames, but my opinion is that the glass ones I have tried all broke. Zagg, Ebay cheapies, whatever, i have broken perhaps five on various devices.

I went back to Zagg original rubber. I prefer teh orange peel for tactile reference. I don't want the input to be friction free. I want to know where the input is centered. I just want to prevent chips and scratches. Zagg and similar knockoffs work well for me.
