Well frankly I think they are a bunch of assholes but that could be due to me acting like an impatient child LOL. I personally have done online sales for almost a decade and I would say if a hot item was to be released and we gave our potential customers this half assed information, it would be someones job, period. I can appreciate how one company may operate differently from another but I definitely agree with your comment.

These are the stock 5X sounds, they were pulled from the latest 6.0.1 build.

I noticed that the sounds in the Hammerhead factory images still had some sounds left over from older builds (lollipop and kitkat)

I've created 2 zip files. 1 includes the 5X's boot animation (the same across all 6.0 devices) or 1 without it.

Tell me of any issues that these zips have and I'll do my best to fix them.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] randomuser245:
Good evening,

while this may have been answered already, I still could not figure it out doing an extensive search today. Since I'm not sure what to do anymore, I thought it's time to ask the experts.

I purchased the phone without contract from a local store in Austria. I've been running custom ROMs most of the time, lately CM13. A few days ago I updated my bootloader to G900FXXU1BOJ2 and modem to BOJ1, previously I had BOD3 bootloader (and modem I think). While I was going through an identity verification for my bank account I discovered that my phone no longer received text messages, which really annoyed me today. I couldn't complete the alternative video identification either, since the ROMs audio recording had way too low volume. So I figured it's time to revert to stock.

Did a factory reset and installed the Devbase 2.0 which is said to be very stable. Turns out even after reflashing that ROM, fingerprint still doesn't work, additionally I got strange UI fails, like keyboard not showing up at times. I figured these issues must come from my too new bootloader or modem (SMS thankfully worked on Devbase ROM). As you can imagine I'm fed up with any kind of custom roms.

So my question is, how do I get a fully working stock rom? I already checked out the firmware thread, but I don't know wether I should flash a ROM specific to a country, since my phone was unbranded from the start. Also, the ROM names look nowhere similar to my XXU1BOJ naming scheme, so I don't know what to flash. Also, this won't restore my stock bootloader/modem, or will it? Final question: can I use Kies to let it restore the phone to stock conditions?

Thank you for your time and have a nice evening! :)

Okay thank you, I'm downloading the German (DBT) version now because PDA code is G900FXXU1BOJ1, when I checked out the site earlier, I did not notice that they provide such a good overview of pda codes. The download is taking over a hour though :(

Just a few more questions: do you recommend I downgrade from BOJ2 to BOJ1 bootloader? And do I need to worry about CSC? Thank you for your reply!

Sorry for posting again, but I'm facing problems flashing the downloaded firmware. It says failed in odin, size is too big. Tried again, it just won't take the stock ROM. I read something about fixing it with a .pit file, but since I also read that this could potentially brick the phone, I'm afraid to touch anything. Since my phone wasn't branded I wonder what is even going on there. Plz save me, thx :D

It won't brick it

Flash this PIT file at the same time as the stock ROM

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2721101&d=1399024091

Extract the PIT file to the .PIT - add to the PIT section, add ROM to PDA or AP section, flash together
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] randomuser245:
Thank you, previously tried to flash .pit after failed AP flash without reboot, which led to reboot to recovery and after that reboot to not even KIES info but stuck at samsung bootlogo (not the animated, the one before). Booted into download again to flash PA once more, after that still failed (size) in odin, but no longer error message on the phone, just stuck at downloading. Then read your post, switched Odin 3.10.7 to 3.07, put in .pit and the pda together, flashed (rebooted phone to download mode before), still Fail (size) at hidden.img.ext4 in odin without error message on phone. I would suspect that my image downloaded from the uploaded mirror is broken, but since there is MD5 check that can't be, can it?

Just to be sure I'll put in a link to the thread where I found the mirror, maybe there is something wrong with this firmware that I did not see: http://www.android-hilfe.de/thema/sm-g900f-stock-rom-05-10-2015-g900fxxu1boj1-5-0-dbt.735775/. Thank you again for your help!

Edit: Right now I'm going for G900FXXU1BOI3, since I don't know what else I could do. If anyone reads this, should I stick to flashing the firmwares with the PIT file, or can I just leave the PIT file out from now, since it already should have the right partition layout now?

Edit2: Failed (Size) ._.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
Sure it's the G900F ?

Check what it says in download mode
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] randomuser245:
Yeah, saying SM-G900F, also says that on sticker under battery. However, it just came to my mind that I should flash the Open Austria ROM instead of the DBT, which would make sense since I bought it unlocked in Austria. Also, I got this idea that I've seen that ATO countrycode somewhere on my phone recently, although I could not tell where. I guess there is no harm in trying the ROM (apart from the 3€ I paid samdownloads to get a faster download of the ROM, which still takes 20min although I'm on 30Mbps), although somewhere I read smth about IMEI/EFS loss, but I can't worry about everything I guess. If that should also prove unsuccessfull, I'll try on another computer, since I got problems with my usb port sometime ago and softbricked an iPod, but I considered that fixed since multiple windows reinstalls since that time, and flashing bootloader and modem seemed fine so far.

Edit: Didn't work either, so I'll just try on another computer tomorrow. Meanwhile I tried to flash BOJ1 bootloader and modem and installing cm using TWRP, but after using the PIT file TWRP doesn't seem to be able to mount any partition of the internal memory, so I could not install any fw via TWRP now either. Looks like a mobile-free day tomorrow :silly:
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
Tried flashing TWRP again?

If the phone is definitely a G900F, it won't matter which region ROM you flash, so long as it's for the G900F (Network issues aside) the ROM will work

It's not unheard of not being able to flash stock on the G900F, there are newer hardware revision models that refuse to flash stock for (so far) an unknown reason

Might need to go back to custom for now until it gets worked out

I just moved from stock to CM13 yesterday, and so far, I don't see any reason to move back to stock

Another possible you could try, would be find someone who is willing to factory reset their stock G900F, flash TWRP only, make a full backup, and then upload that backup for you to restore from TWRP

Never tried restoring backups from one phone to another, but unless there is some sort of security measure stopping that, I don't see why it wouldn't work
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] randomuser245:
I would go back to CM, but flashing the PIT file seems to have screwed up my partition layout, so it's not possible right now. I guess I need to find a working PIT file for my phone first since the recovery can't mount any partition since flashing the PIT :S

That is the working PIT for your phone, it's the same one many people here have used successfully on many different region G900F - PIT = Partition layout of specific Model S5, which is G900F

Something else is wrong

You didn't leave reactivation lock enabled did you?

Try flashing the PIT file on it's own, then the ROM - if that fails, try again just the PIT, then TWRP from ODIN (Make sure it's TWRP 2.8.7.0)
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] randomuser245:
Okay, will try that on another computer once I'm at home.

Since I never got any error saying something about secure fail, and I haven't run a stock ROM for at least a year, I doubt that it is enabled, or could it be?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
Doesn't sound like it, but checking every reason it could be failing

Just done some investigating, and a good few people with the same error say it happens on certain stock firmwares, but not others

So my advice, download another stock ROM and try flashing that one

I know sammobile is slow, so I`ll upload a couple of mine to a faster host for you and post them here (Mine are BTU - United Kingdom, but will work as a test to see if that theory is correct)

Thank you a lot, you saved the day and my phone! :D

I flashed the PIT, then flashed the BOJ1 BTU, and it passed, but still was stuck at the unanimated samsung logo. So I booted (stock) recovery and wiped/factory reset, and it booted :D:good:

Everything seems to work, it even received SMS for two-way google authentication instantely, while it took about a minute when I was on Devbase 2.0 ROM, also fingerprint is finally working.

I guess flashing the BTU ROM in the first place would have saved me from that whole PIT hassle, I was close to flashing it yesterday, but then went for the ATO ROM instead. Btw, I just found out where I saw ATO on my device, it was when viewing logs in the stock recovery, there it would say something like Selecting CSC: ATO.

Thank you again! :)

I let it restore, seemed like it was gonna take a hundred years for 79 apps, so I stopped halfway through and used titanium.

So has anyone used Google's restore AND had their app data restore?

[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plwalsh88:
I've noticed this as well. Because I read that apps are supposed to restore their data even if you re-install it down the road, outside of the initial phone setup restore. In doing some research, I believe I read somewhere that the third party apps need to support the backing up and restoring of user data. So my assumption was just that maybe not many apps do support it?

Edit: Turns out I read that in the Google documentation. This page points it out in two places -- "third-party app settings and data (varies by app)", and it requires the "app also uses the backup service".

If you look in the settings of Google Drive you can see what apps are using the new backup features.

From what I understand, existing apps will need to be updated to the new API level and may need to have the feature enabled by the developer. New apps written for the new API should automatically have it enabled but the developer still have the option to turn it off if they want.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CptanPanic:

I was wondering what app I could see what is actually using the new backup service. For me it is quite dissapointing. I have around 100+ third part apps, and only 3 apps are using backup service. (Plume, Tasker and Reddit is fun".

Hi,

I've got a new OnePlus 2 phone.

Do i really have to flash TWRP in order to root my phone using SU tool ? or i can stay with the OnePlus 2 original stock ?

What are the advantages of TWRP?

:confused:

Best,

Jonathan
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] casual_kikoo:
You can either FLASH TWRP recovery or BOOT into it: the difference is that when you boot into TWRP, it's temporary, which means when you've done your stuff and you reboot into the system, stock recovery will be present. To do so, boot into bootloader:

adb reboot-bootloader

and instead of:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

which FLASH the recovery, do:

fastboot boot recovery.img

which lets BOOT into TWRP.

Then you'll be able to flash SuperSu.V.Xx.zip beforehand pushed into your device.

Benefit of TWRP?

Full backup / restore, change file format, flash zip files, etc, etc.

For the OTA, you can still flash them, but you'll have to flash the stock ROM then the incremental zip if you FLASH TWRP or the full OTA update zip file from here.

[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] casual_kikoo:
Which method? ADB shell? With an app?

If you use ADB shell / Terminal Emulator, you need to mount it into Read-Write mode.

To do so:

(

If you use ADB

adb shell

)

su

mount -o remount,rw /system

Then you can move your file.

Or if you use an app (ES File Explorer for example), you need to enable Root Mode: swipe from left, scroll down and activate "Root Explorer" case.

A thanks is always appreciated.
