[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petya098:
Hello I need to choose a note 5 for me. I have a note 4 right now from verizon with unlimited data but they started charging 20$ extra for unlimited and along with other features on my account it adds up to over 100$ per line. I want to switch to straight talk most likely and since it is cheaper and they have good coverage where I live, but only thing is I know only sprint and verizon use cdma and others use gsm. I need a gsm unlocked but not sure which to choose, there is i920i i920a and so on. I also travel a lot to europe so I need a phone that will support local sim cards as I am there, would someone please give me some insight on which model of note 5 I need to choose.

[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fedayk:
Hi. I have a shield tablet with Blisspop a friend gave me. Since for some reason the os was quite broken I'm trying to reinstall it via recovery mode and microSD. I already swiped and tried with two different rom (blisspop and cyanogen), formatting the SD exFAT/NTSC, but I can't read the zip file when in recovery mode (storage/sdcard1). It says there are no files and I got an error if I try to mount it. What am I doing wrong?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jlgevo:
issue 1, Sometime while listening to music on my phone; it starts to sort of clip the audio. It happens randomly with any music (possibly any sounds) using the headphone jack. this is not a consequence of volume nor a consequence of source. the only cure is time. I have tried rebooting the phone and clearing ram, nothing helps. I have tried lowering the volume, switching sources such as my saved spotify music, google play music , youtube, youtube music. I also have tried different headphones, speakers and even different cars. the issue remains the same. my only conclusion is that is a software bug because of the inconsistency. any ideas?

Issue 2, Boot time. I just timed my boot time on my rooted 6p. it is 2:05. is it just me or is that hella long for a new phone?

Issue 3, Lag outs and lock ups. My phone frequently will lag out or lock up causing he phone to be unusable until i clear the ram, the odd thing is that i am no where near 3gb of ram used. usually around the low 2's. any solutions?

Issue 4, Using the camera to record video. Yesterday i had a friend record my speech in class, when i got my phone back,My phone had locked up after i left the camera app and the back was incredibly hot. he recorded me in 1080p. I do not imagine there is a solution. just thought i would post the issue.

Chances are i will be contacting Project Fi and get a new phone from them.

As you can imagine i am a little frustrated with this device, I purchased what a thought to be a flagship-esque nexus and I it has turned out to be my least favorite phone I have ever owned.

I’m looking for app to record audio ,with Samsung voice note it’s possible to record only 5 minutes.

[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] jaywillsoul:
I think the twrp was not for your phone. All the cores have Qualcomm snapdragon processors and I do believe most of them are LTE. I know for a fact tmobiles is an lte. The problem is Verizon paid for the kernel so they could control our access. That's why we're the last one to get anything done. Basically, by flashing the recovery, you may have soft bricked your phone since it compiles with a different kernel. Yes, Verizon has a different kernel. If you check opensource.samsung.com, you'll notice our phone is not listed. Thats thanks to Verizon. I'm pretty sure that's illegal too but I'm not a lawyer. Until we get a stock rom or someone has an idea, I do believe your phone is KIA.
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] AWaterFountain:
Ugh, thanks verizon. However, the soft brick immediately happened after the factory reset, not the install of twrp (it kicks out of that pretty quick). I know you're working on a stock rom in another thread, anything you need to speed up the process? I'm honestly about to just get a Nexus 5 from Amazon Prime, they're pretty cheap and it's getting rough not having mobile data.
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] jaywillsoul:
With the new OTA having just rolled out, I'm going to pull it. You'll be able to use it to recover
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] jaywillsoul:
https://mega.nz/#!0Q1nFQ7a!pHublKgmjElaZmePKUWxTB5rlgLytu921bFIJJbII_E

Link to the new OTA.

Flash using either recovery, if you still have access or fastboot.

And TWRP is official. I found the actual name from verizon, and it matches. Careful with the OTA, I'm now soft bricked.
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] AWaterFountain:
Awesome, you're a lifesaver. I'll do this once I get back from work- can't say I really want to deal with VirtualBox USB passthrough today or that sketchy looking java/web one.

I've still got access to everything (download, recovery, adb, no fastboot though). So the linked version of TWRP (coreprimelte or whatever) is specifically for this phone? Any reason I wasn't able to successfully flash it?

Last thing- and thanks so much- what does that zip actually contain, and if it is just the OTA files, then will I still avoid the soft brick you ran into?
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] AWaterFountain:
Unfortunately, the OTA update changed nothing. Dunno if it was supposed to (I didn't see Setup Wizard files in there) but I'll trade a soft brick for a soft brick. There was some red debug info on screen when applying, but the phone quickly rebooted afterwards. If you need me to, I could probably adb in and check the version numbers to see if it applied and/or rerun the update and capture that debug info.

Maybe all I need is a stock copy of the Setup Wizards- I should be able to sideload them over the existing versions, right?
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] jaywillsoul:
Maybe. I'll dig through the system and see if I can find the original.

It might be a part of gapps
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] AWaterFountain:
That's what I was thinking too, and I've tried reapplying gapps-lp-20150314.zip. I think the Setup Wizard it's crashing on isn't the stock android one, but one of the samsung/verizon ones I listed in the first post.
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] jaywillsoul:
Found it. Once my son goes down for his nap, I'll upload it for you.

It was worth a shot, but sideloading that apk failed. The stock you are working on should be the ultimate fix though.

Good to hear! What version of odin did you use and what settings in odin do you select to get the ROM to flash?

Hi;

I have xperia Z1 (C6903) 5.1.1 ver: 14.6.A.1.236 rooted(with kingroot and replaced with supersu) but locked bootloader.

1- Do I have to unlock bootloader to flash/install custom recovery?

2- If I have to then what is the easiest way to unlock bootloader?

or;

3- Is there any way to install/flash xposed framework.zip and xposed installer apk without custom recovery?
[Xperia Z1 General] DetmL:
1. You don't have to unlock your bootloader to install custom recovery. Install xzdualrecovery on lock boot loader (if you want to).

3. You need custom recovery to install xposed framework.
[Xperia Z1 General] motorazrv3:
Hi.

1. No you don't have to unlock your bootloader to install a custom recovery.

2. See above

3. Apks can be installed normally. The problem is the zip. It can only be install through recovery.

Search for xzdr dual recovery installer here on XDA. Install the custom recovery.

Good luck.

After a few days with this update what I noticed is:

- Alarm clock doesn't ring sometimes... Or I disable it in my sleep

- The order of my apps has changed to alfabetical once, not really sure why, happened on the same day as the alarm clock issue, so maybe I did this in my sleep

- Screen sometimes switches on for no apparent reason... I am using the screen lock and block button app, so maybe it did not switch on randomly but the phone just didn't register me touching the button so the screen stayed on when I put my phone in my pocket, then when I took it out it turned out I have called a bunch of people with my thigh...

- Someone mentioned above that touch issues are gone - I have never had any touch issues on my phone, after this update it sometimes doesn't register my touch, very rarely though

- Battery life without any noticeable changes, at first I thought it was draining really fast but then I noticed that stamina mode was off xd Just switched it on, wonder how long will this last.

so as you can see, I'm not sure whether I started sleepwalking or if this update isn't that good. Gonna have to give it a few more days... But seriously, as fun as lollipop is, I'm really considering switching back to Kitkat, my phone seemed to run smoother on it. Plus, I liked the design better. Material design just ain't for me.

Worked perfectly for me with the one I linked to and it is from a developer of great reputation. Same dev that makes the best file browser, FX File Explorer. It also makes a backup before modifying file that controls SD card read/write operations.

Also considering your other threads I suggest you do a clean install and then root according to instructions and install a recovery. Follow instructions and dont try to guesstimate as you will end up with a phone that has a "Frankenstein system" consiting of leftovers, corrupted files and non working parts like you have now.
