[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+] socco100:
Okay, so my s6E+ is completely locked out due to a 7 yr old trying to access MY phone with HER finger print. It will not accept my recovery password, nor will it except my google account information. I even reset my google account to ensure the password is correct and nothing changed. It is now telling me that the sim card is locked too. I cannot afford to factory reset my phone. Its my business/personal phone and I cant loose anything smh. PLEASEEEEEEE SOMEONE HELPPPP THIS IS URGENT. I was told by samsung CS and Sprint CS that I would have to wait 72 hours to try my finger print recognition again. I dont even know how accurate that is. Then they said I may be able to get someone to flash my phone where I dont lose any info. IS THIS TRUE??????

Kind regards,

[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluegizmo83:
OK, my Shield Tablet has been great, never any issues until today.

I was just browsing the web, playing a few games; I was not installing anything or messing with system files or anything like that (I am rooted on the stock 5.1.1 ROM though), and out of no where my power and volume buttons just stopped working!

Heres the strange part though, they only stop working once the tablet is booted up. They work fine to power the tablet on from a cold boot, and they work fine in recovery mode (volume and power buttons), but once the tablet is booted up they stop working. The only way to get the screen to wakeup once booted it by removing the stylus. To power down or reboot I have to use the terminal emulator, or hold the power button down for 10+ seconds to force a shutdown. Just pushing the power button once the tablet is booted up does nothing (it should either turn off the screen or bring up the power/reboot menu), same goes for the volume buttons, once booted they stop working.

It has to be a software issue because the buttons work in the recovery. Has anyone else seen anything like this, and/or know how to fix it? I REALLY don't want to have to do a factory reset....
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluegizmo83:
Never mind! I figured out what was wrong. I caused the problem and just didn't realize it. About a week ago, I was trying to use a ProEX brand Xbox 360 wired controller with my tablet using a USB OTG cable and for some reason the right thumb stick was being mapped to the trigger buttons. So, long story short, I copied all the info from the Xbox 360 controller map file in android and pasted/overwritten all the map settings in the Generic.kl file (which is what the ProEX controller was using for its mapping). By doing that, I basically accidentally removed the Power, volume up, and volume down key mapping because that's keys are mapped from the Generic.kl file. I just didn't realize that's what caused the issue because it didn't take effect immediately. It only took effect after I rebooted the tablet several days later.

hi

i want to install marsmallow on my rooted lg g4 but i need how i can do it ?
[Verizon LG G4] motrinHD:
you can't haz root on MM, 13b kdz then update. I would think are the correct steps
[Verizon LG G4] divineBliss:
One way is to KDZ to 24C MM. :)

There is no way to root MM.
[Verizon LG G4] yolvandyv:
but how i can update the phone because i dont know how ?

i have the 13b software..
[Verizon LG G4] divineBliss:
What happens when you try Phone Settings -> System updates (all the way at the bottom) -> Check for new system updates . That is the easiest way unless you are rooted.
[Verizon LG G4] yolvandyv:
there is not update at the settings, but im rooted..
[Verizon LG G4] divineBliss:
From below linked thread get the 24C MM KDZ file and use LGUP PC utility linked in that thread to flash the KDZ using UPGRADE option unless you want to wipe your phone, in which case use the REFURBISH option:

http://xdaforums.com/verizon-g4/general/kdz-download-kdz-24c-official-lg-servers-t3317412

It is best to use the REFURBISH option and wipe your apps, so use the phone's Backup & reset option to make a backup to your external SD just in case the UPGRADE option does not boot and you need to do the REFURBISH option to get it working:

[Verizon LG G4] yolvandyv:
bur i have a question. i maintain the root if i update to mm ?
[Verizon LG G4] divineBliss:
Nobody know to mankind on the planet earth has a rooted MM VS986 :laugh: ...... If you value root like I do, you stay with 13B Lollipop until someone figures out how to root MM on VS986.

The good new is you can try MM unrooted, then if you don't like it, go back to L rooted :) .
[Verizon LG G4] yolvandyv:
ok thanks but in that case i prefer my rooted 5.1 lollipop :)
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayeyebee:
Hello, i'm somewhat new to this...kind of, sorta, but not really lol. Interesting problem that I have here. Ok so recently I replaced my m8's bad charging port successfully except for cracking the screen in the process. So I ordered a new one and changed that as well and now the phone won't turn on even with the power on+vol up combo but when I plug in the charger the battery icon shows and for a brief second the twrp recovery screen flashes then goes back to the battery charging screen. Most times it flashes the twrp screen twice within a minute but I can't press anything to reboot the phone. Can anyone help me out? It would be greatly appreciated. I have S-off, rooted, unlocked bootloader and its a sprint hk version, stock rom.

well i booted up remix os on my laptop and see that the mouse pointer isnt the traditional arrow....its kind of transparent and is round!!!

plz help me to get the actual pointer on this thing>>>
[Remix OS for PC] egren58:
Idk some people get different one which is weird. Lol you would have to use remix tool too extract system.img and find that file or root it and use a root browser
[Remix OS for PC] Orion116:
If you are using a multi-touch track pad it shows the mentioned pointer. If you use a traditional mouse you get a traditional pointer.
[Remix OS for PC] sacredev:
Tried and tested method :

Go to system/usr/idc

Open ETPS_2_Elantech_Touchpad.idc

replace the line "touch.gestureMode = spots" by "touch.gestureMode = pointer"

Now Reboot :)

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] km8j:
So I already preordered the S7 because I dont like big phones. I just went to Best Buy though and held an untethered S7 edge and I gotta say it is not nearly as big as you'd think. Somehow it feels really compact and easy to hold. I feel like I kind of want to switch to the Edge but I ordered my S7 really early and don't want to lose my place in line hah! Anyone feel like switching?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Maknora:
I did. same thing for me, I went to best buy today and held the edge. and I said it's just as comfortable as the 7, 6 grams heavier and 600 mah battery more. I canceled my 7.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] bloemdr:
I did that exact thing last night. Switched to edge from 7
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Toss3:
I did the exact opposite - switched from the Edge to the S7 as the Edge felt a bit too big. Great that we have a choice! ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] skywalkr2:
Same here. The s7 edge was too similar to s7 for me. Plus I really really didn't like the rounded edges.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] misiokicio:
Let me join too lol, I've phoned sammy and payed extra for the edge lol, I expected 5.5 inch screen to be much wider,,, but to my surprise, s7 edge is really good and comfy to hold, sammy sent me email to pay the difference by paypal :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] wm2001wm2001:
I've ordered a S7 silver but thinking about getting the Edge instead. Here in Australia we don't have samples to play with but from the dimensions I can see that edge is very compact.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Toss3:
Tried both today at another store, and the weird thing was that there was a significant difference in the picture quality between the two; S7 Edge had a lot more aliasing going on despite the settings being the exact same (going to post a comparison pic later when I have time, because my gf was with me and didn't want to give me enough time to do a complete comparison). Also does anyone know if there is a difference in the DACs/AMPs used as the Edge sounded a bit clearer to my ears (could be placebo as I was switching between the two)? :confused: The Edge also seemed a bit smoother for some reason (same apps running in the background). The S7 is definitely more compact, but started second-guessing my decision now. :rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] marcgear:
I went with the edge. Just down to the the fact not tried any if there edge handsets and tried it in store and it felt really nice. I'm moving on from a note 4 just hope I don't regret it as I do love my note.

I can't find anything on XDA for your device I'm afraid. Best advice is to try a google search on your device name and "rom" as your search phrase.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Dirtdawg57:
I ordered a s7 edge through verizon but I have an issue with the delivery date. They are saying they should hit the stores March 11, but I will be in Texas for my Sister in laws wedding from March 9th until the 12th. So the issue is should I keep my delivery for my home in Colorado or have it sent to Texas.

Do the preorders usually go out early? I would think it would only be fair if people who pre-ordered to get it before people can get it at the stores.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Tidbits:
Well for T-Mobile USA they sent the S6 a week early for some users. Verizon tends to be on the dot maybe a day early in most cases.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] shadow82x:
Anyone know how BestBuy handles pre-orders for online shipping?

IIRC, I pre-ordered the s6 edge last year from Verizon (online) and it came 1 day before the release date.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Shoulon:
Follow my preorder thread in the discussion threads, I'll update it as soon as any news about early devices being shipped pops. Verified news, not he/she says.

Last year tmo sent devices a week early so I'd imagine the same again regardless.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Dirtdawg57:
Thanks for the input! I think I will just have it sent there in hopes that it will be there a little early. They can ship it to me if it gets there late. Man would that drive me crazy though.

I hate that you have to wait until you get your phone to sign up for the VR gear. They said they have limited supply. Since it is going to other countries and carriers first I should hope there will be some left if I get mine a day late or something. One of the main reasons I ordered it was for the VR gear and I would be super ticked if they ran out!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Dirtdawg57:
http://www.roadtovr.com/up-to-30000...ll-come-with-us-s7-pre-orders-starting-today/

I am a little bothered by this article saying there will only be 300,000 VR units given in the US. I wonder how many pre orders there will be. I think you receive a VR gear based off of what number you are in the pre order list, not whenever you happened to get your phone. If you get yours late, you might miss your shot. But the way they are advertising it makes it seem like nearly everyone will get one. I hope that is the case.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] CuBz90:
I'm sure there will be a lot of cancellations if this is the case.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] jaltman:
My AT&T preorder says shipping on the 7th to arrive on the 8th. Many sites are reporting preorders will be out 3 days early from the official launch on the 11th.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Dirtdawg57:
I just talked to 2 verizon reps and the first one said the phone should arrive on the 11th, and the other checked with her manager and said it would ship out on the eleventh and not arrive until the 14th. To me it makes no sense that the people who preordered will get there phone 2 days after the phone comes out in the store.

I am not throwing any fits because it is unfair, but this is a issue for me because I don't know where to have the phone shipped. And like my earlier post said, it seems that they are only giving out around 300,000 VR Gears, so if I am a couple days late getting it, I may lose my chance at getting the VR gear. ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Shoulon:
That's incorrect. You can input your invoice that you purchased a device starting March 3rd on Samsungs website, I forgot where I found this information but if I remember I'll link it
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Dirtdawg57:
Please do let me know! I keep hearing that you need your phone to do it. My receipt from Verizon does not have any info about the phone other than what it is, and the pre order number.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Dirtdawg57:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2016/0...ear-vr-with-purchase-of-galaxy-s7-or-s7-edge/

This makes it seem like you will need your phone. I sure hope there are plenty of VR units to go out to all the preorders. If not, there may be a lot of angry people.

I pre-ordered from Best Buy so they will ship the VR with the phone. Also getting a free 64gb SD card.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] XxKINGxX2580:
My S6 edge was delivered on March 30th (T-Mobile), and (I think) the release date was somewhere around April 10th. So, don't be too surprised if you get a shipped confirmation email in the next week or so.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] shadow82x:
Also plan on getting mine through BestBuy. Seems like less of a hassle than waiting "4-6" weeks for the GearVR to come in.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Dirtdawg57:
That does sound nice, but I didn't really want to fork out 300 and be stuck in a contract. I might contact samsung and verizon and try to get some assurance that there will be enough to go around. Otherwise, I might cancel and hold out to see what the V10 sequel has in store.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] shadow82x:
You can buy phones at BestBuy without a contract, that's what I'm doing.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Dirtdawg57:
You have to pay full price though right?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] flarbear:
That link actually proves that you need the IMEI and WiFi address.

First, they mention in the text on that page that you need to fill out the form and submit a receipt. That doesn't say what info is required for the form so it does not suffice as a counter-example, nor any evidence that the receipt is the only information you need.

Secondly, that page provides a link to the actual terms and clicking through you can see that the section on submitting the claim explicitly lists the IMEI number (3.b.iii) and the WiFi MAC address (3.b.iv) in addition to the receipt.

So, IMEI and WiFI MAC are certainly required to claim the Gear VR...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Dirtdawg57:
That is what I was gathering. I wish Verizon would just do what best buy is doing. But then it is harder to lead tons of people to believe they are getting VR gear when there truthful might be only enough for 1/4 of them. I hope I am wrong though.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Dirtdawg57:
Ahh you can do the monthly payment without the contract with best buy... Now I feel stupid for ordering it from Verizon. I just talked to best buy and they said you are actually reserving a VR gear with them so it is much safer than chancing it with Verizon, and you will get them quicker. Looks like I will be canceling my Verizon order. If VR gear is important to anyone, you might want to go with best buy!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Hitman3984:
Well remember, Verizon isn't the one providing the VR it's samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Dirtdawg57:
I know, I just think it would be better to either hand the VR gear out at preorder, or have a reserve system like Best buy so you know when you preorder that you will for sure get one. If you order through verizon, you are kind of just hoping you get your phone quick so you can enter your purchase receipt before they run out. Of course maybe Verizon has plenty. But I like the fact that it is a sure thing with best buy.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] squallz506:
If you're on Verizon you should get the free gear s2 instead. Sell it and buy a gear vr.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Bjray:
That's great news. Seems pretty much anyone who pre-orders should be able to redeem a Gear VR.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Dirtdawg57:
I considered that, but then I found out it has to come with a data plan and I didn't really want to do that.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] squallz506:
I reached out to verizon and they said that it is the 3g model but I don't have to pay the connected device charge unless I activate it on verizon. I'm not going to activate it just going to sell it new in box.

So here is the story, last night i ordered the s7 edge at T-Mobile, and in the morning decided I'm gonna keep the Nexus 6p that I have and called T-Mobile and cancelled the phone, later i check my bank account and it shows they charged already. So i called T-Mobile again to see whats going on, and the rep checked my account and told me that its already being prepared to ship and that its impossible to cancel. So its good we getting the phones being prepared for shipping.
