[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lego126:
Hello once again. I received 2 sprint s5's from my mom when she upgraded to S6's. I called straightalk asked if I could activate, no, called sprint prepaid, no!! I currently habe straightalk, and am willing to change to sprint amd get a contract, However I have sketchy service at my house, and really wanna test it out first. My question is whoop can activate these phones here in the SE US. Boost? Virgin mobile? I'm fairly granular with flashing and stuff and can read and follow directions. I do see a SIM unlock for non USA mostly, but would try it if all else fails. Right new the phone are factory reset on 5.0 lollipop. I can do what ever needed to get them SIM unlocked so I can activate for another service or just provide me with another provider that will activate. Amy help appreciated.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] autotech40:
Youll have to pay for domestic gsm sim unlock,then adjust your apn to new carrier for data. Idoneapps unlocks these phones.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lego126:
Sooooo

Ok thanks. So if its sim unlocked, and apn adjusted, I just pop sim in and I should be good. Even ifstraightalk tells me I can't use this phone?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] autotech40:
Correct.

P.s. you also may have to enable some bands,depending on what carrier also.there are tutorials on that.

You can activate Sprint phones on Ting very inexpensively. Ting uses the Sprint network with CDMA phones.

Ting will check with Sprint to be sure the phones are out of contract and no balance owed.

S5 sm900g wifi popup

Thanks for the replies guys. Ting users CDMA? Mine is GSM, i found the threads about unlocking it. Hopefully i can get it. And one more question, i am constantly getting a pip up saying turning WiFi on will disable Hotspot. Ive done a hard reset, and back on official 5.0 lollipop. Not rooted yet but reading up on it before starting. This S5 lollipop is a bit diff from S3 KK. Thanks for any help or tips.

[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] TheFatDemon:
Pretty much what it says in the title. I want to install MaximusHD and try out cm13 but I don't accidentally want to install a ROM that isn't supported. Thanks.

Oh and, I don't have S-OFF, Unlocked Bootloader, TWRP and currently running the Deodexed Tmobile rom from this forum.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] kc6wke:
No, You need to be S-off to flash the MM firmware and also need to super cid.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] TheFatDemon:
What exactly is Super CID? I'm still pretty new to rooting on HTC so I'm not too sure about these kind of things.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] kc6wke:
Cid is your carrier ID. T-Mobile is T-MOB010

When you super Cid, what it does is change that to all ones (11111111) which allows you to be able to flash other carriers firmware to your device.

Then you can flash other carriers roms.

To flash the latest Maximus, which is Marshmallow, since T-Mobile does not yet have the firmware for it , we need to flash the International firmware for Marshmallow.

Also to flash the International firmware, we need to make sure the MID (model ID) matches your device MID which is in the android-info.txt in the firmware zip. For T-Mobile its 0PJA12000.

Here is a guide that might help.

I suggest you do some research on this before attempting it.

Hope this helps
[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] TheFatDemon:
So do we have to edit the android-info.txt to have modelid: 0PJA12000? or just as long as we have the right CID?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] kc6wke:
Yes, I had to change it for it to flash.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] shmyset:
I'm sort of in the same boat and have been trying to find an answer. I have an unlocked bootloader, but no S-OFF. I would like to try a custom LP rom, would I still be able to install one without changing from the 2.11.531.19 firmware?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] TheFatDemon:
You can definitely install the LP ROMs. I used Candy 5 without any issues.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] shmyset:
Thanks. The other issue I'm having is backing up my stock recovery, I tried the "fastboot boot twrp.img" while in download mode, but my phone just shows that the img downloaded 100%, but it just hangs after that and doesn't actually boot into TWRP. I've tried looking for a stock recovery on XDA for my CID (T-MOB010), but I haven't had any luck.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] TheFatDemon:
I honestly can't help ya there. I didn't know about doing that before I installed a custom recovery and now I'm just like, eh, oh well.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] kc6wke:
Here is the stock recovery for 2.11.531.19
[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] dohcvtec:
Thank you!
[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] shmyset:
Thank you!
[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] shmyset:
I flashed this via fastboot, but when I reboot into it I'm seeing the phone graphic graphic a red triangle+exclamation point. I rebooted and tried to update to marshmallow, but it keeps failing with that same graphic after 20%. Any thoughts as to why this may be happening?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h2odiver:
I had an issue with cm13 and am trying to just get a working phone :( Its a xt1034 that I have tried to restore to 5.02 and everything worked after the first command failed

(bootloader) Preflash validation failedFAILED (remote failure)...

Really not sure where to go from here. I can't access twrp, all I have is a dead android if I go into recovery.

Is there a list here for all of the different zips for lollipop? I am having a hard time finding ones for the xt1034 Androidfilehost has a search box that produced lots of results and quick downloads***

I have managed to complete all of the steps without errors but still have nothing but the bootloader unlocked screen. UGH
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h2odiver:
Wow it was a long day and am happy now that I didn't give up. Finally found one that worked 5.1

The website I mentioned above is a great source, very easy to search with quick downloads. Half of the frustration today was chasing files with dead links
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+] dixiedad:
Okay folks, it this is a repeated question I do apologize. I've been searching for three days and finally my head hurts. I have heimdall 1.4.1 I believe and the only options to load is .pit files. I can't find a single pit file to root my phone anywhere. Also I am under the impression that once you detect the device it should show up under compatible devices and mine does not even though it does say device detected. Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong. Thanks in advance.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mnfire:
OK so i have searched everywhere for days. Tried tons of kindle unlock/unbrick tools. I rooted my Kindle fire HD7 (no sd card slot) using kingroot and twrp. at some point i used a utility that also put SuperSU on it. Everything seemed successful and i rebooted several times tweaking other settings, when i was almost finished tweaking i tried to remove kingsroot and rebooted which put me into some kind of boot loot. I only see the white/grey AMAZON (arrow under the word AMAZON) logo it only stays up for about 20 secs then goes black and starts over. All the unbrick tools i have tried either say can't find device and fail or say <waiting for device> and are never able to find it. I have installed new signed kindle device drives successfully. Windows device manager does show an Other device (with accompanying ding dong sound) > MTX65xx Preloader for about 5 secs then it disappears, the kindle never shows up as a drive thou. from what i read i think i may be stuck in fastboot? I don't know. I ordered and am using a Fastboot cable that i ordered from amazon which seems to have no effect. Ive tried using it in usb 2.0 slot as well as 3.0 (which they say won't work) The cable is from Atomic Market (3ft Motorola Factory Cable unbrick Droid Xoom Fire).

I also tried loading linux Ubunto via USB and running all unbrick tools i could find, always the same result .. it can't find device or waiting for device.

Windows 7 and Windows 10 same problem

Does anyone know how to help me? every article or guide i find talks about the kindle Fire logo that is orange and white with an animation or without. or a triangle... i have not read one article that talks about the white/grey amazon logo.

Thank you,

Mnfire

Okay, I have a Sprint LG G3. So about two days ago I rooted the phone using the King Root app, everything worked fine except for a few random reboots (i shouldve took that as a hint to unroot it but im stupid). I did remove some factory apps but only things that didnt seem important such as Google News and Books and stuff like that. Anyway i clearly dont know what im doing but a few hours ago i was installing a font onto my phone and when it went to auto reboot my phone got stuck in bootloop?? and im not sure what to do. I don't mind factory resetting the phone, but i have REALLY important things on there (14,000 photos, 400+ videos, 500+ songs, and important documents) that i would like to get from the internal storage. I found another forum that kinda relates to my problem (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2339530)???? Im sorry i'm really stupid and confused, all I want are my pictures/videos/music/documents; the other stuff i can live without. The best thing for me would be to get back my phone completely, but if im at least able to get my important stuff saved on a computer or something then that would be good too. And yeah nothing is backed up anywhere so... If anyone has advice please dumb it down as much as you can because like i said i obviously am a confused person; i am never rooting anything in my life ever again. Thanks

just wandering if I can fastboot boot recovery.img even Im lock bootloader? if not can I backup on recovery just by booting it? together with the stock recovery since it has a choice also to back up recovery?

thanks for those who will help

btw im still lolipop and not planning to upgrade on android M maybe on the future so I need the stock backup

No .. you can't fastboot boot recovery.img with a locked bootloader.

I never do backup by booting the recovery so I can't answer that .. and I don't think TWRP has a selection to backup stock recovery .. maybe other recovery can but I never try.

What's your software version no. ? Maybe I have the stock non-rooted backup and stock recovery.img in my thread linked in my signature .. that will save you all the hassle of doing what you are trying to do.

Linux kernel source request for Huawei Y5 (Y560-L01)

[MENTION=1464177]wimbet[/MENTION]

How can I acquire a copy of Linux kernel source that matches the binary kernel shipped with Huawei Y5 (Y560-L01 - firmware version V100R001C577B040)? Linux kernel source Huawei have released for this device (http://download-c.huawei.com/downlo...oadId=62203&version=205085&siteCode=worldwide) is utterly incomplete. It doesn't even compile and there's no chance that it would ever work on an actual device.

It is missing all the Makefile/Kconfig entries for Huawei modifications. It's missing FT5x36 touchscreen driver. It's missing Huawei USB driver modifications. ap3426 sensor driver doesn't compile. It's missing msm8909-y560-byd-4v35-2000mah.dtsi and msm8909-y560-scud-4v35-2000mah.dtsi to compile the dt.img. This is just to name few. If you need more information, don't hesitate ask for further details.

May I kindly remind you that Linux kernel is released under GPLv2 licence and Huawei is legally obligated to provide the source code.

[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] deadman96385:
The OP nowhere mentions the Y5 and it is not a honor device so it does not belong in a honor forum. Like i said before [MENTION=1464177]wimbet[/MENTION] does not support non-honor devices. So he would be no help to you.

Thank you very much. :) I've been having real trouble getting the message through.

Here's a thread for the CyanogenMod 12.1 build I did for Y5. I'm more active on that forum but you can PM here as well. Lack of proper kernel source is currently holding down any other projects I had planned for this device (Firefox OS, Sailfish OS).

You need to relay this to Honor USA. They don't have this same point of view. I asked them for an unlock code and they told me that they know nothing of this and refused to help me. I got the unlock code from Huawei in China. When I asked them if there was a stock image available, they proceeded to tell me that any software that modifies the stock ui, would be considered rooting and void my warranty.

I contacted Honor USA initially regarding this issue, they would not give me an unlock code, they also told me that installing third party launchers that make changes to the OS, is considered rooting and my warranty is now void. Personally, I don't care about the warranty, but the attitude sucked. I did get an unlock code from Huawei in China. Apparently, parent company and child are not on the same page.

Use odin to flash the latest DOK9 firmware. Dont fflash DOL5/L6 cause rooting those will give bootloops. Then root and use xtresolite rom with hackers kernel and undervolt and minimise the core usage. You will find there my settings in the hacker kernel's OP page. Greenify and amplify the unnecessary apps and shut up those wakelocks. Uncheck notifications from the apps from which you dont nwed notifications.

Hope this helps.
