[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HollowKyo:
Unfortunately, it looks very much like components on your logic board are going bad. Sometimes a few specific things will go bad that don't actually make the phone unusable, but make it act similar to what you are explaining. It wouldn't be worth the money you'd have to pay someone to track down the bad components and replace them. If you really like the note 4, I would just make a full backup with kies while you can, buy a new phone and restore your backup.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] outcasted2003:
All of Kies backups do NOT restore to a new phone! Only contacts, messages and call logs will restore on a new phone. Use Samsung Smart Switch or Helium. Good luck
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HollowKyo:
I see. I didn't know that because I've always restored my backups to the same phone. Thanks for the info.
[P3600 Software Upgrading] keef95:
Good afternoon!

I have navigation/hands free phone in my Toyota Camry. When I send contacts from my P3600 to the phone book in the car via BlueTooth, it appears the phone is sending info in the "First/Middle/Last" format found on the "Name" line rather than the "Last/First/Middle" like a regular phonebook. If the contact sent is a company then the "Name" line is blank and so is the entry in the car's phonebook.

The first question: Can the "send contact" function somehow be reformated to send the name in the format that displays when you open "contacts"?

The second question: Is there anyway to select several contacts to send at once as a batch? Sending one contact at a time is obsurdly slow...

Thanks in advance.

Chris
[P3600 Software Upgrading] yokasha:
the first questio .. try edit contact -- save as-- change the wat it looks.

the second Q -- if u r using WM5 the is a small app. called ppc contact manager it allow u to select all contacts . :)

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biascoblix:
Hey,

Okay, so I've been using the Galaxy S2 for god knows how long and I really need to move on.. and also the fact that its battery is dying for the third time... that helped me to take the decision to go with the 6P.

There's just a major problem, I'm neither from US nor Europe... and I don't wanna pay 200$ or 300$ extra just to get it.. because the only reason i'm buying it is it has a great value in its current price..

I have seen a few nice forwarding sites, like fishisfast and usgobuy and they do look promising... I can buy from the Google Store and ship to my country and that would only cost me about 50 bucks more.. which is great...

My only concern is defective units... I've seen so many complaints on the forums here about defective units starting from the slight pink screen to speakers and the list goes on... and I'm afraid that If I receive a defective unit i won't be able to get a replacement...

is there's any safe way of getting the 6P without compromising warranty or paying like 200 extra bucks

Yea, I was totally gonna do that... I'm just afraid to get a defective unit somehow...

If that happens, I don't think you can return it, right ?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biascoblix:
Okay, I'm going with a forwarding service.. which one is better to order from, Huawei or the Google Store ?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ohlin5:
From a returns standpoint I'd easily prefer the Google Store. However, I'm not sure how that applies (or doesn't) to your current situation & questions.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biascoblix:
Ugh, I'm sick of this, I've always wanted to buy a Nexus.. Starting from the Nexus 4, to the 5 and then 6P... and I never did.. Why google makes them that damn hard to get anywhere else on the world !! :(

I think I'm gonna wait till Amazon start selling them officially.. That's probably gonna be the best in returns standpoint..

Okay, No Nexus for me then... I am buying the HTC M8.. It does have a pretty active dev community.... Definitely not as good as the 6P.. But it's currently for half its price...
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsdecker10:
To start off, this is happening on my rooted & bootloader unlocked Lollipop v5.1.1 Nexus Player, btw...

But anyway, just all of a sudden today, I started having issues with the Play Store sorta freezing up and displaying/getting stuck on an all black screen(the entire tv screen would go solid black) after choosing on the "Update" button within a couple of different app listings. It wouldn't go past that black screen unless I would back out of the Play Store all the way back to the home screen, and from there I could re-open up the Play Store app again. After finally trying and trying over and over again on several different apps, a couple of them DID manage to properly update via the normal Play Store updating mechanism. After a couple of successful updates, I opened the Play Store back up again and NOW it won't even open up at all...nothing at all! As soon as I would try to open it up, there would just be a little swirly thing on a black background and it would then display "Server Error - Retry." It seems to be stuck on this crazy error now and the Play Store won't even open up at all. I eventually got fed up and just cleared the Play Store app cache and data from the main Android->Settings->Apps section, but that didn't clear up any of my issues with the Play Store, so I just rebooted and then reinstalled the app. Reinstalling the Play Store from the apk downloaded from apkmirror did nothing at all to clear up my issues either. Sooooo...I'm stuck wondering what to do next? What could the problem be, and is anyone else experiencing this? It's not my network because I've tried running the play store from a wifi connection AND my ethernet connection, both with the same negative results. And this may not be related, but then again, it may, but the Play Store opens up just fine on my Note 3 and other devices I've got here at the house. Any help would be appreciated!

Info and DL on SuperSU v2.6x and Systemless Root

1. MUST flash a 100% stock (Odin) firmware.

2. DL SuperSU v2.6x

3. Install custom recovery

4. Install new SuperSU zip

5. Let it run through the process then reboot.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] balistic2:
Hey Joe, your link about the info is broken. Also your 'click source' on #2. is not a link.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] koop1955:
I think that this is the link: http://xdaforums.com/apps/supersu/wip-android-6-0-marshmellow-t3219344

If I read Chainfire's notes correctly, this is only for systems running Marshmallow, which would let us out for a while. But....

Once Samsung updates our OS to Marshmallow or they get CM 13 working on our phones (currently a work in progress) this could allow us to use Android Pay on a rooted phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] JoeFCaputo113:
Fixed!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] JoeFCaputo113:
I do not believe it is MM only bc it's posted in the international S6 general forum too (and they obviously aren't on MM yet either).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] koop1955:
I wasn't sure if CM13 is already working on International phones.

I only know what I read....

From Chainfire's post:

Rooting procedure:

- flash/upgrade to Marshmellow

- flash modified boot.img

- flash/boot TWRP and sideload latest...

Joe, be careful if you try this. Looks like you need to Odin back to stock.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] 1619415:
Does this still void knox?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] koop1955:
That is the key question. Also, would Google detect the phone as being rooted.

For the Knox part, someone with a "virgin" phone would need to test. Both Joe and I have already rooted using the current method, so Knox is already tripped.

Has anyone tried rooting with this method and trying samsumg pay?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] todivefor:
Decided to give this a try. Odin flashed OL1. Booted OL1 with no problem. Odin flashed TWRP, without reboot. Rebooted directly into TWRP and flashed SU beta 2.65. It booted without problem with root access. When I go into SU, it says there is an update available, but I just cancel out.

I was hoping android pay would work as I could never get it to work except stock unrooted. I started android pay and got the message "android pay cannot be used." I realized I needed to unroot in SU. I did that and still get the same message.

EDIT: Tried it again. Odined OL1, rebooted and android pay worked fine. Odined TWRP, booted into TWRP, fine. Rebooted into rom, bootlooped at Samsung logo, over and over. Rebooted into recovery and flashed SU 2.65. Rebooted into rom with no problem. Android Pay no longer works.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] 1619415:
Try Number 15
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] todivefor:
Thanks. Been there done that.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] tx_dbs_tx:
For those asking about whether this root method trips knox or not. Yes this will trip knox.

Anytime

you use odin to flash non official Samsung firmware/software then it forever trips knox. Therefore flashing

any

custom recovery will absolutely trip knox... forever.

Samsung and Android pay apps will not work on rooted devices. Period. The pay apps are intended for official factory software for obvious reasons. Security is the main focus with these types of apps that deal with your personal banking/credit card information. Hence a rooted device is not considered "secure".

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] southernstyle:
This may be a weird question, but we don't have a stock kernel to flash. Would there be a way to make a zip of a stock kernel and then use this to get root? I'd like to have a custom ROM but with the stability of a stock Kernel. This is the first phone I can think of that I've owned that didn't have a stock kernel with root.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] koop1955:
That is the idea.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] yaibakt:
i tried again last night but still no luck.

my steps:

- odin the stock rom.

- odin the TWRP.

- flash the systemless SU 2.66beta.

- install busybox from playstore, install, reboot.

- install titanium backups.

- run tita backups.

- fail to restore the app. :(

i have like more than 100 backed up apps so i cant re-install one by one...

so i have to go back to kernel v8 to get rooted. i just want to have stock kernel rooted to see the battery life difference. kernel v8 seems not to have a good battery life. :(

Hello,

I think factory reset does a complete wipe without leaving any traces of your data.

You may factory reset the device.

Move some files to your device. And factory reset 2nd time

I am trying to flash a custom recovery on my rooted Samsung SM-G870W (Bell Mobility).

My research indicates that I can use either CWM or TWRP on a SM-G900W8 Canadian Galaxy S5

with Qualcomm CPU. Here are some info on my cpu:

Processor : ARMv7 Processor rev 1 (v7l)

Features : swp half thumb fastmult vfp edsp neon vfpv3 tls vfpv4 idiva idivt

CPU implementer : 0x51

CPU architecture: 7

CPU part : 0x06f

CPU revision : 1

Hardware : Qualcomm MSM8974PRO-AC

Revision : 0002

Serial : 0000b3d80000a2e1

I read I can use CWM or TWRP that is meant for S5 on an S5 Active device.

After flashing either CWM or TWRP, booting into recovery mode just brings me to

download mode. At first I thought I was pressing the wrong button combo so I

tried booting into recovery mode using adb (adb reboot recovery) but I get

the same thing, it bring me to download mode.

Are there any Canucks in this forum successfully flashed their S5 Active with

either CWM or TWRP? I can sure use your help.

I bought a shield tablet to develop on OpenCL. Nvidia write everywhere that the tegra K1 is compatible with OpenCL 1.2.

Then I try to talk with some people who try that. No body was able to use OpenCL!!!!!

I talk with the nvidia support but they send me on few forum to talk with client to see if they have already use OpenCL ...

As I told you before no body was able to tell me how to use OpenCL..

I am really angry because I bought a machine which should work according Nvidia but finally it don't work ...

[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SeekingSight:
OpenCL or OpenGL? There's a huge difference. I wouldn't expect the Shield to support OpenCL nor have I read that it does anywhere. If you want to develop and utilize OpenCL a desktop is going to be far better either way. Once again, don't expect a 192 core Kepler GPU to perform very well... Nvidias 2500 core 780 Ti has issues competing with the cheaper R9 290 equivalent.

And it should also be noted, OpenCL isn't really something anyone is going to use outside of productivity (rendering and editing for example).

I really hope you meant OpenGL, because once again, never heard anything about OpenCL.

As far as I know, it supports the desktop version of OpenGL 4.4 and 4.5
