Oki, two little things I learned...

There are at least three types of lock.

SIM-LOCK - You're locked on one provider

CID-LOCK - You're locked to one "manufacturer"

APP-LOCK - You can't install some stuff on your phone.

While the APP-LOCK can be disabled by simply using a registry editor (do a search, you'll find tons of answes), the other two are a bit more complex to get rid of.

CID-LOCK prevents you from installing a ROM from a different brand or distributor. Example, you bought a e650 and you want to install the non branded HTC rom? You can't. It will tell you "Invalid vendor id".

For this check the Bootloader thread, some people here can do MAGIC.

For the SIM-LOCK... Well, either you pay your provider to unlock it for you or you go to a company able to do it. Still no way of doing this on our own.

Ka.
[HTC Vox] pijMleko:
so if i remove cid-lock i can instal other ROM, but if i'll do that i will no longer have sim-lock?? is there a ROM that is whitout sim-lock??
[HTC Vox] gibsonk:
Sim lock

Hi

Even if you flash the htc rom that is not sim locked it will not remove the sim lock as this is hard coded onto phone and currently can only be removed by imei check or your network provider, providing that they carry this phone. :eek:

my front camera is taking blurry pictures this is happening from few weeks i considered taking it to service center but maybe you people can help :)

blurry pictures as in if i take a selfie,the face appears washed out or very cartoonish type if i zoom in it gets distorted and its lacking details its not taking as sharp pictures as it use to take before although rear camera is working fine... please help :(
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GZA1337:
I have a similar problem with my front camera. Pictures taken are really ugly, the look like they have a beauty effect on it, or some blur. I thought this is normal...
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pokr777:
It is normal. MAYBE rooting can undo the beauty effect, but on stock, beauty effect set to 0 is not really 0
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ben_cool:
my friends galaxy s6's front camera takes good pictures(as sharp and crisp as mine use to take before this problem p.s his s6 is new mine is quite old) and yes pictures taken are kind off ugly same as the guy said above "with some beauty effect on it or some blur" might be beauty effect i really dont know :( but beauty is set to 0 :( also this problem started like 3-4weeks back it was working fine before :(

and are you sure rooting will help? or service center it is?
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GZA1337:
So you say your friends phone does not have this beauty effect??? maybe it is firmware related. I am on 5.0.2. This sounds like a software issue...

I don't use the front camera anymore because the result is terrible.

Are there any others with good pictures made with front camera?
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ben_cool:
yes his s6 takes better pictures! without the beauty effect unless ofcourse he turns it on and no i dont have any other friends who own a s6 but i just watched many reviews on youtube and it seems this is a problem with our s6 only

and i guess it is firmware related but im on latest firmare of 5.1.1(G920IDVU3DOK9) for my region

maybe it is hardware issue? lens problem? :(
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GZA1337:
I just searched the internet for a solution but did not find anything. Someone said it can be fixed with root but not how...
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ben_cool:
well you can root the phone and install some other custom room like xtrestolite and check if the camera started working like before :) do inform me if it does :)

ill take it to service center soon hopefully they can fix it

and yes nothing on internet :p
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GZA1337:

Battery Percentage

Hi to all,

I am using the build 29 build of [MENTION=6311143]Trafalgar Square[/MENTION]. Everything is working fine but i have one issue and don't know it is related with the rom. My s3 battery is draining fast since i am using a new battery. I am trying to find solutions with Boeffla kernel, xposed framework and etc. I have noted that after my battery energy finished after plugged in and restart it shows approximately 35% - 40% energy. I used battery drainer to finish all the energy and in few minutes it goes to zero which i also verified when i plugged in while "power off".

I hope i can described it smoothly.

The summary is that what should i have to do for a stable battery percentage

First day i have installed some tools and added one google and two exchange email and a whatsapp account. (Sync and high accuracy location on)

Charged battery to 100%. Charging cable stayed at phone. Installed alot of apps after that. Screen says battery is still 100% in the upper right corner. When you disconnect the charging cable, it drops instantly to 97%. Yesterday i had a instant drop to 91% after heavy use, after i disconnected the charging cable.

- Tried an other Theme(default theme), stays the same.

- Tried with new battery and old battery, stays the same.

The charging goes just fine, so battery or inside battery chip isnt faulty.

edit: Does this Cyanogenmod version tickle charge after its fast charged to 100%? I was watching the charge process, but every time when it charged to 100%, it seems it stopped charging or not charging enough after, and losing a few % over night. I had never had this with my old 4.3 version.

Hi, i have a question about battery.

This is my first custom ROM i always used original ROM.

I charge my battery to 100% and day after without using my telephone battery was about 97% and this is nice [Settings - Battery showing my standby mode about 12 days] but then i use my telephone ~5 minutes [i check sms and calls] battery going down about 3-4% [93%]. This is normal or something is wrong? For me this is fast.

WiFi is OFF, Location is OFF, Internet is OFF, Screen brightness is 30% and i dont use extra apps like FB, Twitter and other.

[AT&T LG V10] DeadlySin9:
Kingroot is one of those foreign one click root things, but it does have a thread here on XDA. I heard of it because it can root S4's on Lollipop without having to flash things in download mode. It's an option if you're desperate for root and don't care about flash counters, q-fuses, q-fuses, warranty bits, whatever. I don't know if there's any risk of bricking, but if it does work that would be nice to know, and once rooted we can replace Kinguser with any number of tutorials.

If this works, then it can certainly open up expiration for more exploits/workarounds/unlocks so it would be nice. As always, nothing is guaranteed and I know the pain of a locked bootloader life (my phone took an OTA while I was on an exploited firmware and I've been locked to Touchwiz ever since :eek: ) but hopefully we can at least get the spark going.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] Mr.Indigo:
So, my friend just bought a Galaxy S6 from T-Mo. Nice device and all.

But... she only speaks a bit of english. Her major language is portuguese, so I installed a custom ROM to enable full portuguese translation. Unfortunately, she called me today about her SIM card.

Her device, right now, is rooted and tied to T-Mo. As the operator states in its website...

Also, from the Play Store description...

(she just realized that the phone was locked after she bought the nano SIM, which took 72~96h after the ROM flash, last tuesday, so no way to detect it)

So, four questions:

1) Am I able to unroot and retry the operation? (using, of course, T-mo stock ROM)

2) Does KNOX Status interfere something on it? and...

3) There is a way to request the unlock code from T-Mo?

4) According to Play Store comments, no one succeded in unlocking the device using this "tool". Even Samsung Avant's owners. Is that confirmed?

Thanks in advance. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] carnivalrejectq:
.......I was able to unlock my phone after rooting and then returning to stock. Even stranger is I still owe $297 on my EIP. The app worked and says I'm permanently unlocked. I have no idea why it worked.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] Mr.Indigo:
T-Mo said that the phone needs to be activated on the network (IDK if it was at least once, I think it was something like that).

Because this phone never saw the color of a T-mo SIM card, in fact. So it's a 50% chance of going totally wrong.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] Mr.Indigo:
Update on the case:

for now, phone is still locked.

When I try to use the T-Mobile Device Unlock app, it says that "Server is not responding". IDK what to do anymore.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] museruy:
Hi All,

I had Android 4.4.4 (KK) running on my Note 4 (SM-N910C version). A week ago, I decided to upgrade to 5.1.1 (Lollipop) but after using it these days, I decided to go back...

In the past, I have installed 5.0.1 LL on this phone and went back to KK without any problems whatsoever, but this time, when trying to flash KK back on Odin, it ends at "FAIL"...

At the same time, my phone displays "SW. REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE: 2, BINARY 1" on download mode and I'm afraid it is now bricked because when I try to boot the phone to system, it gets stuck on the main screen (samsung logo and model) and it never boots up...

This is what I did to my phone so far when installing 5.1.1:

1) Flashed 5.1.1 stock firmware from Sammobile.

2) Rooted using talexop Kernel.

My phone has the latest version of TWRP recovery installed and I currently have access to both this and download mode. I need urgent help :crying:, leaving on Holiday in a week and I need my phone functional! I tried googling and searching over the forum, and I saw some stuff but it was not really helpful for my case.

Any advice will be greatly appreciated!
