Ok guys maybe someone has experienced this before. I have searched the Internet and can't find a solution. I have 910W8 model rooted with custom rom. Few days ago I plugged into my wall charger and my phone froze and I had to reboot. Once I rebooted the phone will not charge at all. It does not recognize that its plugged into wall. I bought new charger and cable. Same. I bought new battery. Same. I have no warranty on the phone so I took a little Shop and they replaced the USB board. Now it charges but it will not fast charge or connect to my computer. When I plug it in my computer it says device has malfunction. I took it back to the shop and they replaced the USB board again but I have the same issue. They said they have never seen this before. Anyone have any knowledge on this? Also yes I have fast charging selected.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elijah257:
Hi everybody,

hoping someone can help me as I am really frustrated now and have tried everything I can think of...

first a bit of info, I have an S6 edge, G925F and I was using a custom rom with no issues for a couple of months until all of a sudden I was having the same issue as others where I was getting "not registered on network" from damaged or corrupted /EFS, my imei had changed to 350000000000006 but I still had baseband version etc visible, just imei lost.

I have read on many threads that the answer is to change back to stock rom but no matter what rom i flash from sam mobile, it will not boot, when I go into recovery after booting it says "DM-Verity failed have to check DRK first", no matter what Rom I try but if I flash the odin flashable UNI Kernel after that then it will boot but then I have a rooted stock rom so not actually stock and an unstock kernel and still the not registered on network issue with same imei (350000000000006) .

so far I have tried flashing;

G925FXXS3COK5_G925FOXA3COK5_G925FXXS3COK5_HOME.tar.md5

G925FXXU3COI9_G925FBTU3COJ1_G925FXXU3COI9_HOME.tar.md5

and another one same as above but with XEU sales code as well as trying the EE (EVR) branded one with associated pit file and I've flashed every other pit file with each one as a last resort, to no avail...

nothing boots without flashing separate, non stock kernel, defeating the purpose of trying to return to stock.

p.S. Smart Switch doesn't work either as both it and kies say "SM-G925F does not support initialising, please contact support service"....

what can I do??

I've had 3 samsung phones now, s3, s4 and now s6, all rooted and have flashed countless roms on them and never had this issue and I also have no EFS back up as I have never selected it to back up in TWRP as I didn't know I should have and like I said, haven't had this problem before (kicking myself for not backing it up now...)

any help would be mucho appreciated as I am gutted to have broke my new phone and I am at my wits end with trying to fix it.... I thought I was quite good with tech and have done countless mods and rom flashes to various phones and solved many problems Ive encountered along the way but this is stumping me and I really need help..

Thanks in advance for your time and regards,

Elijah
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elijah257:
anybody?

any ideas at all? anyone? how do I get the phone to rebuild or reset the EFS partition so that it refreshes it when I start it up with the sim card in it again? any ideas are more than welcome as I really can't accept Ive bricked my new phone, it's less than 3 months old and I know there must be a way to do it. any help would be appreciated, cheers in advance, Elijah
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benbugohit:
I just managed to flash stock firmware on a SM-G925F (= model name in upper case) with Kies3.

It puts the phone on stock state (i.e. bootloader, efs partition, recovery, ... etc.)

but you have to be able to boot in Android in order to retrieve serial number in settings => about => state
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vaira:
What happens when you just flash the stock FW, boot into recovery and make a factory reset from there? Cannot mount /EFS error???

AFAIK this IMEI is displayed when the EFS partition has been corrupted...

Some reported issues with param.bin (part of the BL file) in combination with EFS... and solved it by flashing the BL (which contains the param.bin) and the modem.bin

Try to flash a 4 part original FW, boot into recovery and make a factory reset...

Anyway if the EFS has lost data and you have not made a backup, you cannot fix / get back your original IMEI again.....

Hello, i'm asking if there is any app to turn off and on the phone accourding with working hours? Thanks in advance
[P3600 General] Rudegar:
it's possible

the htc home plugin does it unless it really have to be 100% off and not just soundless

but i'd asume that a timed flightmode would be equaly possible
[P3600 General] toxicrainpx:
you don't understand my question, I want a program to do that automaticly.
[P3600 General] Bananafish_1:
Phoneweaver does it. I think there's a new one, v1.1. I'm using 1.0 and it lets you set automatic profiling (e.g. flight mode) for specific times of the day. Actually, phonealarm should let you do that as well.
[P3600 General] Matterhorn:
I've been using Phoneweaver for about a few weeks now. It turns off my phone radio at midnight and turns it back on again at 7:30 am. I can still use the Wifi in-between if I wake up in the night. On Saturday and Sunday mornings it doesn't turn itself on until 8:30 :-)

[Galaxy S6 Accessories] JayX2A:
Are there any curved/wet install screen protectors that will fit round the curved edges of the S6 or is a glass one the way forward?

I am clumsy and outdoors lots so would want some proection and it seems a lot of the plastic protectors only just about cover the screen.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] HKSpeed:
I was very satisfied with the Spigen non-glass screen protector. It covered almost all of the screen, which surprised me. I only took it off because I prefer glass protectors.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Rakcoon:
Spigen screen protectors leave gaps around the border. Not as much as glass sp. This is to accommodate "case friendly" design.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] JayX2A:
Interesting! I thought I read it only just covered the screen? Does it overlap slightly? Maybe it was earlier version!
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] HKSpeed:
No screen protector I know of covers more than the screen. Are you using a case? If yes, which one?
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] JayX2A:
Not got the phone yet - was pre ordering bits! I don't mean the whole front of the phone. On the spigen website it shows the protector being slightly wider than the display, but review I read elsewhere seem to have it cut quite narrow and it barely covers the active part of the screen.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] HKSpeed:
This is the Spigen plastic screen protector I ordered below. I always use a case and it covers most of the screen. There's a tiny gap, but I wasn't bothered by it.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00QU4N0EI

A case option is the Spigen Ultra Hybrid FX case. Its the $17.99 option in the link below. It covers the entire phone (front, back, edges). Then you don't need a screen protector.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00QU4PN84

Reviews and photos of it: http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/RT1Z3ENHAIQ8Z and http://www.amazon.com/gp/review/RDXA8F1JMNCI4

Below is a review of the case for an iPhone 6. It's in Japanese, but you get the idea. There's no S6 video review available.

[YOUTUBE]DAHfmSH2lhM[/YOUTUBE]

Despite my comments in this thread, I'm not a Spigen fanboy LOL. I no longer use the Spigen screen protector (I have a no-name glass now) and I'm swapping my Spigen case for a Ringke Fusion.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] JayX2A:
Have the Fusion on my Nexus - pretty good but teh back is coming away from the sides now. Like the look of the Rinke slim though.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] JayX2A:
Got some Spigen ones, they are pretty close to the size of the screen. Have to be so careful to line it up properly! Shame they didnt make it that fraction bigger, but I guess that was not possible due to the screen curve.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Duzzy5:
Ordered spiegen ones too, from amazon, 2 protectors wtih shipping costed 16.70€ :D but i have always dreamed of getting rid of that thick and heavy tempered protector.... they really do add weight and thickness to phone, especially if you decide to put front and back tempered protectors
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] JayX2A:
I was tryiing to find a 0.2mm glass one as the thread on here has that as the best one - but they donn't ship to UK :(
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] benjmiester:
They're hard to find, I've seen a few on ebay.com but there are some glass protectors that will cover almost all of the phone. They're the ones that go over the buttons with a pass-through for the fingerprint sensor/home button. They have an entirely identical full front look. Like this one, but not edge of course, they make them for flat S6s too but the flat ones being the ones that are hard to find: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Samsung-Gal...hash=item4d3e1f582c:m:mF-rpmie8VK2iab6MR9K5EQ
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] JayX2A:
Ordered a couple of super cheap 0.26mm ones that I found online.

https://www.replacebase.co.uk/samsu...or-0-2mm-ultra-clear-with-oleophobic-coating/

Arrived yesterday and look ok - will see how they go on and if there are any halo issues.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] jazk:
I have a SUPER thin tempered glass screen protector for the front and back of my s6. On the back it is quite large so it has the halo but on the front it is cut so it just about covers the actual display bit, so there is no halo on the front. It covers the samsung logo at the top and the capacitive buttons at the bottom like any other screen protector. Both costs me £2.49 on eBay UK. After using a much thicker tempered glass screen protector on my s3 I would say that the thicker ones feel as if they would offer better drop protection.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scramjet:
Hey guys,

I have a few questions regarding the Marshmallow update to the One (M8). First of all, I own an international M8 on stock, rooted, with TWRP KitKat firmware version 3.32.707.9. I have not updated either my Sense Home (still have Sense 6 mainly), and most of my apps are the Sense 6 versions, which I prefer to the colourful Sense 7 versions. So, my questions:

I still haven't received the Marshmallow update at all. Do I need to update to Lollipop or will I receive a Marshmallow notification even while on KitKat?

If the above is not possible, then can I install the OTA onto my phone after downloading the zip file from a mirror directly?

Can I backup all the Sense 6 apps that I want, like HTC Clock, HTC Blinkfeed and such with Titanium Backup, update to Marshmallow and restore them, and expect them all to work properly?

Thanks.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
1. You need to have lollipop 4.19.707.4 stock ROM to receive Marshmallow update. Won't get it on KitKat, lollipop lower than 4.19.707.4 won't get it too.

2. No

3. Yes & No ... but mostly No unless it's a full KitKat ROM running on Marshmallow firmware.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scramjet:
That's a bummer... Ah, it was time I cleaned out my phone and clean-installed all my apps and stuff anyway. Thanks for the help. I was hoping I could get the nice globe HTC Clock from Sense 6 in Marshmallow, it was quite useful...
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scramjet:
Some updates - I realised that I deleted some system apps without making backups, and now I can't update to Lollipop (and thence to Marshmallow). Big mistake, yes. How do I find which apps were deleted, and how do I restore them? Or is it more prudent to simply make a Titanium Backup of my data, flash a TWRP backup of the new Marshmallow ROM and just restore my data?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
If you want the official OTA, none of that will work. OTA requires stock never rooted ROM.

You can restore a stock nandroid 3.32.707 from ckpv5's collection (link in his signature), and corresponding stock recovery, then do OTAs, all the way up to Marshmallow (if or when its released for your version).
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scramjet:
Alright, I successfully flashed an un-rooted TWRP nandroid backup of 3.32.707.9, updated to Lollipop and thence to Marshmallow. I performed a factory reset and then restored all my apps and settings, and proceeded to flash TWRP and the SuperSU binary.

Lo and behold, my phone is now stuck in a boot loop. It gets to the 'One' screen, and then just locks up. I have to press Power + Volume Up to reboot it and switch it off. Any fixes? Also note that my USB port is, for some reason, also dysfunctional now. I can only connect to my PC in 'Fastboot AC' mode, and I've tried three cables already, two different PCs and all the USB ports in both PCs.

Edit: I restored my Kit Kat nandroid backup that I made. My phone has been saved, but now I have to do this gruelling update process all over again. Isn't there a faster way?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
If you try to do the steps in your first paragraph (Post #6), I'm pretty sure it won't work. Even though the ROM is back to KitKat, all the other firmware (hboot, radio, etc.) is still on MM, so the OTA won't allow you to update back to MM again.

Did you make a TWRP backup before you tried to flash SuperSU (you should

always

make a backup before applying mods; especially a backup of the unrooted, stock ROM)? If so, restore it. Otherwise, you may need to find a nandroid of the MM "707" stock ROM, or ask someone to upload it.

What version SuperSU did you flash? Versions before 2.51 or so don't work for MM, and will cause the no-boot condition. Also, TWRP should be latest version 2.8.7.0.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scramjet:
This is where I messed up. I flashed 2.46.

I'll see if the OTA works, or else I'll just RUU Kit Kat, and then OTA.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
I suspected as much. In the future, keep in mind that new builds usually require a new SuperSU version.

That should work. I assume there is RUU for 707 version (can never keep straight which versions do/no not have RUU)? If there is a LP RUU for your version, it would be easier to run that (skip the step of the OTA).
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scramjet:
Now, my phone's USB port has stopped working. I can only charge it through my PC, and not get any sort of MTP connection. Something's wrong.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
Slide down the notification then in the drop down select file transfers (for MTP) instead of charging
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scramjet:
I don't get any notification. It's as if the phone doesn't even realise it's plugged into a PC, and just charges.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
You don't have these ?

View attachment 3617634 View attachment 3617635

What ROM that you have now on your device ? You already updated to MM, right ?

If it is your old KitKat ...

Install TWRP 2.8.7.0

Boot to TWRP recovery then enable MTP to transfer files from PC to device

Restore a non-rooted MM
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
What do you mean "Now"? Which did you end up doing? Stock kitkat nandroid? KK RUU? LP RUU?

Try to go to Windows Device Manager, find the device, and manually pick the generic Android MTP drivers. See if that makes MTP or fastboot/adb work properly.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scramjet:
I haven't done anything yet. I tried to connect my phone previously to try and enter fastboot USB mode before all this, and I noticed that my phone was only connecting as fastboot AC. I could not, and still cannot get any computer to recognise my device. I've tried a few other cables, too.

Edit: I have fixed this issue. It was a case of loose USB contact between my device and the cable. Tweaking some of the gold contacts on the cable helped, and my PC now shows my One M8 connected. Fastboot is connected as Fastboot USB, too. I'm going to perform a Titanium Backup, and then restore the Lollipop RUU and proceed with updating to Marshmallow. Hope it works out fine this time.

Thanks for the help, everyone.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scramjet:
New updates - I found an RUU for 4.19.707.2, and attempted to apply it, only to receive an error 159, stating that the RUU image size was different compared to the device image size. What's wrong?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
You can't use lower version RUU 4.19.707.2 when your current firmware is 6.14.707.1

Save all the hassle to restore a KitKat or Lollipop RUU/backups ... just restore non-rooted backup 6.14.707.1 - check my thread linked in my signature, you should find it on post #3
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scramjet:
Of course, but I saw in several places that if the M8 is S-OFF then this rule doesn't apply...
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
So .. your device is S-Off ?

What you read is correct for lollipop and below.

When it comes to RUU exe when you have Marshmallow firmware on your device or running a Marshmallow RUU exe, it works differently ..

That's the reason why I wrote "You can't use lower version RUU 4.19.707.2 when your current firmware is 6.14.707.1" as I know you tried RUU exe

Good luck...

Hello recently my phone battery went dead than after I charged it I got "optimizing apps" and it just couldn't finish. So then I did "flash stock and unroot" and now I'm stuck with bootloop. Wiping data with stock recovery didn't work, I've tried it many times. :confused:

Did you try using fastboot commands to erase userdata, flash userdata.img, and factory wipe before first booting the phone?

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Extract the userdata.img file from the stock Google ROM you are flashing.

Boot the phone into fastboot mode, connect the phone to the computer, type "fastboot erase userdata" and press enter. Then type "fastboot flash userdata userdata.img" and press enter. The userdata.img file should be in the same directory where you execute fastboot commands. When the flash has completed, use the volume and power button to go into recovery, wipe data, and reboot.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
It could be stuck because you need to flash the userdata.img file.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddvche:
I have a similar issue here, Wiped, formatted, resized, reflashed bootloader, radio, recovery, system, userdata, cache. Tried stock lollipop, cm12, cm13, everytime each rom flashes successfully. However, upon loading the custom bootloader animation, it stucks there forever. This happens matters not that flash each partition individually, install the zip via TWRP, or ADB sideload. Is there a live boot/verbose option so I can see where it is hanging? I tried so many times it almost feel like it is a hardware issue.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
After flashing each stock partition, including userdata.img, are you booting into stock recovery to perform a factory wipe before the first boot of the newly-flashed stock ROM?
