I upgraded to beta4 and then when odin downgrade android 6.0, this phone lost baseband and no signal. :crying:
[Galaxy S6 Active] hotbyz168:
Read back a few posts. The recent marshmallow update updated the bootloader. There's a certain sequence you have to follow.
[Galaxy S6 Active] cynicalinsomniac88:
It says my provider has not provided access to the FM chip. So therefore I cannot use it.

If you check the list for supported devices for that app, this phone is not even present....

After flashing default android 6.0.1 on my s6 active my broadband version is unknown and I have no imei..... help me :(
[Galaxy S6 Active] chuy81:
Hello everyone!

Please anybody tell me, does IR and Aqua camera mode work properly on Beta 4?

Is there any possibility to downgrade to 6.0?

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S6 Active] shark20062:
IR working fine on beta4. Downgrade to 6.0 possible.
[Galaxy S6 Active] Strike Vader:
IR fixed

Using QD1, my IR blaster finally works on old televisions that I've never been able to use in the past. I'm using AnyMote as usual, cuz I dislike Peel. Anyway, I like QD1 so far. Hope my input helps.
[Galaxy S6 Active] Jimmyvb98:
Does QD1 run faster?
[Galaxy S6 Active] discodraft:
How about connectivity with the Gear S3 smartwatch? Does QD1 work with the Gear S3?
[Galaxy S6 Active] chuy81:
I've just installed Beta4.

It doesn't contain Aqua mode in camera.

So you will not be able to make pictures underwater.

:( :crying:
[Galaxy S6 Active] FevenKitsune:
1) Use the active button to take pictures in standard "Auto" mode.

2) The S6 Active is not waterproof. It is only water resistant. While yes, if your phone is in pristine condition, it can be used underwater, I highly recommend you avoid submerging your S6 Active.

EDIT: For a slightly more technical clarification, the S6 Active is not, despite what the website might say, rated to resist water pressure. Water pressure is exerted on the phone's seals when it is submerged or put directly under running water. The same is true for the S7 series.
[Galaxy S6 Active] ghostdeadeye:
Boot Loop Issues, NO Recovery Mode after OTA update.

I'm at a loss here...

Went into a boot loop randomly. Phone will NOT boot into recovery/safe mode. It DOES boot into download mode, and I flashed v12 onto it but the issue persists.

1) Tried booting into recovery mode (Power+Vol Up+Home) - Does not respond

2) Tried reset with Power+Vol Down - Responds but starts the loop again

3) Kies3 does not recognize the device, USB drivers up to date

4) Smart Switch does not recognize the device, USB drivers up to date

5) Booted into download mode, downloaded v12 - 6.0.1 - G890AUCU5CPK3 and flashed - ODIN says it PASSED but the boot loop still exists

6) After update, still no recovery mode

7) Tried the [TOOL] TAR.MD5 PACKAGER fix even though I didnt have that specific error - still boot looping

8) Let the battery die completely and recharge and start the phone - boot loop issue still persists

9) Tried youtube fixes to literally bang the phone off the table - might try throwing it through a wall next to see if that works.

Now I'm sitting here with a phone stuck at "Powered by Android" and is unresponsive to everything I've tried.

Is it possible to download a different 6.0.1 firmware and go from v12 back to v9,v10, or v11? I cant seem to find a link to any earlier firmware files
[Galaxy S6 Active] Gnommes:
Hello there,

Could anyone please advise - what actions are required to update from Beta1 to Beta4? It seems to me that direct update (skipping Beta2 and Beta3) is not possible, so should I just rollback (via Odin) to v12 and then consistently update v12-to-v13, v13-to-v14, v14-to-Beta4?

Thanks in advance!

Cheers,

Dmitry

I can't turn on WiFi calling or access it in settings when I have a T-Mobile SIM in my phone on marshmallow, but the phone still switches to WiFi calling anyways when I have poor service. Are you not seeing it switch to WiFi calling in poor service, too?

Just to know if they changed something, was WiFi calling not working for you on previous betas?
[Galaxy S6 Active] FevenKitsune:
It was not working on the last beta.
[Galaxy S6 Active] Xebec:
It does, at least on my Gear S3. There was an update to the Gear S3 as. Make sure you install that on your S3.

QB8 to PK8

If i am on QB8 and want to go back to PK8 can i sideload or do i have to Odin?

Edit: or does QD1 have all of the updates from PK8?
[Galaxy S6 Active] lirex:
The latest version (even if it's beta) always has all of the past updates.
[Galaxy S6 Active] pozochio:
Perfect.

Thanks lirex.

Was having some weird issues with multiple sms being sent and received and want to see if this QD1 corrects this.

Does beta4 fix custom quick actions? On beta2 I'm using Automate for custom quick actions and they look like this
[Galaxy S6 Active] Gnommes:
Mobile data toggle

JFYI: it's possible to add Mobile data toggle into Quick settings for AT&T phone using adb commands from this topic: https://www.xda-developers.com/thre...ickbaity-tricks-for-your-new-galaxy-s8-or-s8/

Works like a charm, thanks to the author.

Update: missing Touch sensitivity (aka Gloves mode) toggle might be restored as well - just add TouchSensitivity text in command.

What doesnt work on the latest beta (4)? I read in some post that Wireless charging doesnt work on 7.0....
[Galaxy S6 Active] Jimmyvb98:
I'm on QB8 and wireless charging is working.
[Galaxy S6 Active] GSXeclipsePSI:
I just wanted to add some input.

All Beta worked for me with Wi-Fi calling.

Beta 2 for me was a let down, so much removed then back to normal on Beta 3.

Beta 4 for me is solid. I'm very happy wit the improvements. The toggle menu is cool, I like being able to adjust the "grid" size of the toggles. I'm not too sure if that was added with QD1 but it's a nice touch.

I do miss the ability to pick your buttons/toggles in the camera app like in 6.0 wish they would put that back.

So is it safe to assume this is the final beta?

Im upgrading to the S8+ in May and it's gonna be fair well to the S6Active. My wife just got the LG G6 and it's nice to have that infinite screen, she liking N7.0 on her phone. LG did allow you to change the text bubbles, something Samsung should do, it's really hard to tell incoming from outgoing unless you use a background that makes it easier to see.

Later,

WiFi calling doesn't work on T-Mobile on these nougat betas. Hope they fix that first.

Beta4 QD1 does not fully support Samsung Pay.
[Galaxy S6 Active] GSXeclipsePSI:
I'm on AT&T also I know on AT&T you have to be on a post paid account to have access to this feature of Wi-Fi calling.

I don't have a card that is supported by Andriod pay or Samsung pay but I do use Samsung pay for membership rewards cards and it works.. I love how it knows via GPS when I'm at say SHELL/Circle K and or O'Reilly or CVS/Walgreens and it already has the card ready in the drop down menu. Simplest thing a make a app work it's battery useage lol

"Owners of the Samsung Galaxy S6 lineup have been rejoicing as of late, as their devices have finally begun updating to the latest major version of Android, 7.0 Nougat. And while customers on Sprint and Verizon have been enjoying the new features that Android has to offer, AT&T users were seemingly left in the dark. This is finally changing though, as users of team blue have started seeing the new OS rolling out under build NRD90M.GxxAUCU6EQCF."

You need to use

OPTION 2: Download v12 - 6.0.1 - G890AUCU5CPK3 firmware and flash it with Odin

then use OPTION 3 and flash via adb v12 to v13, then v13 to v14 and finally v14 to v16

I did it and its ok
[Galaxy S6 Active] Yu-Ra:
What's new in Final in comparison to last beta?

[Galaxy S6 Active] cynicalinsomniac88:
So where's this GxxAUCU6EQCF

That should be the official 7.0 or at least the most recent...

And seeing the alpha-numeric pattern thus far, the above would be a newer update...
[Galaxy S6 Active] lirex:
The information in the article is not entirely accurate. GxxAUCU6EQCF is for one of the other variants of S6 - Regular or Edge. The other one also has a different build number.

Hello. Lay out please Android 7 vBeta2 and vBeta3 (G890AUCU5DQB8).
[Galaxy S6 Active] HugoHughes:
Hi peeps.

I used option 2 to upgrade to v12 - 6.0.1 - G890AUCU5CPK3 a long time back.

Now that v16 - 7.0 - G890AUCU6DQD1 is available, can I just do the same thing to upgrade? Safe to do so etc?

Thanks.

Side note if needed. I live in the UK.

Edit: If OK to do this, are there any issues I need to know about?
[Galaxy S6 Active] lirex:
Those are old beta versions which we no longer need. That's why they are removed from the list.

What's your current version? If it's v12 then you should go ahead with Option 3 and sideload the rest of the updates.
[Galaxy S6 Active] HugoHughes:
Yes, I still have v12. I'll look into Option 3 tomorrow then. Again, thanks for your help lirex! :)

Because they are unlisted, and newer versions are available, I am taking down my GDrive mirrors for a number of older firmware's, and an older ODIN package.
[Galaxy S6 Active] KibaYuuji:
Hi, I think the better way will be u went back to v12 G890AUCU5CPK3 via Odin, then sideload to v13 G890AUCS5CPK4 and v14 G890AUCS6CPK5, then u can straight go v16 G890AUCU6DQD1.

At least from what I learn here, if u want to go to the official and u in the Beta, u need to went back to v12 via Odin and proceed, I might be wrong though.

Please correct me if I am wrong ya, thanks.

[Galaxy S6 Active] d4nnguyen:
is there any difference between the G890AUCU6DQD1 beta and the official? if I installed the beta version, do I need to install the official version to make it "official"?!

thanks
[Galaxy S6 Active] Xebec:
No, you're fine. All the beta's were official from AT&T, they were just not made available to the public. Since there is no root for this phone, the only thing that can be installed is official software. AT&T determined that QD1 was good enough for release and pulled the trigger. I have three S6 Active's. One was loaded up with QD1 while it was in beta and the other two received it from AT&T over the air. All three show the exact same info under software version.
[Galaxy S6 Active] mickeyf:
Mine working fine, battery life may be improved. Some quirks like auto brightness seems unreliable
[Galaxy S6 Active] DOLF777:
The people who have updates. At the moment, it's beta1 G890AUCU5DQB1 - (7,0).

What you need: beta1 G890AUCU5DQB1 - (7,0) to Beta2 G890AUCU5DQB2. (7.0).

Beta2 G890AUCU5DQB2 to Beta3 - G890AUCU5DQB8 - (7.0).

You have to extract it and then select each of the four files in Odin as per the detailed instructions in Option 2.
[Galaxy S6 Active] boobagrx20:

Hi everyone, I'm just trying to get some guidance as to how to begin. I picked up the Active this week and it's on 5.0.2 but the baseband is G890AUCU1AOE9 which doesn't match the "v2 - 5.0.2 - G890AUCU2AU2AOF4" that shows up at the top of this post.

Looking for a little guiding hand as to which method should I use to get started, since I'm using the phone on T-Mobile, I can't get the OTA update.

File size: 15.6MB

The updates

What's new: Android device security updates
[Galaxy S6 Active] TigerCountry:
I recently updated to Nougat (less than a week ago). Now when I plug my phone in to charge at night I wake up in the morning to the phone feeling very warm and a few times really hot as if I have been using it heavily gaming on it.

Never had this problem before and the problem stops when the phone is unplugged so there is no way to see what app is killing the cpu. Its plugged in for roughly 8 hours and charging is done in a little over an hour and I have always used the supplied Samsung quick charger. No other apps have been installed that i did not have on my phone running 6.0.1.

Is there any way to see what apps are running the cpu all night when its plugged in?

Also. I installed the nougat update via OTA after flashing V12 of the software for a fresh clean install. I might do a full clean install of nougat but I don't see why I would need to do that since it was installed on a clean phone already.
