I hope it is too, it's working great with CM13 and I'd like to see it continued with perhaps OC being enabled.
[X Style (Pure) Android Development] DonKilluminati23:
Bliss kernel v1.1 + current CM builds, working quicker than anything on this phone for me personally. Not getting very warm either. So far i have not run in to any bugs or random reboots and all seems well.

To anyone that reads this and is hesitant because of lack of recent development; halt. Try it.

Clean wipe, installed CM and open gapps, then wiped cache and install bliss kernel 1.1 before initial boot.

I hope there's an update to the kernel, the 7/16 and later CM13 Nightly's seem to be incompatible with the V1.1 kernel. After the 7/16 updates wifi won't turn on and the device name in "About Phone" is listed as unknown. I'm back on the CM stock kernel and I miss those Bliss features and feel.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] kimern:
So i have a few questions for you previous Samsung owners out there. Primarily S6 owners.

Guess we all know these handsets comes weighted down in bloat and services nobody ever use.

Got a little worried when i read this: http://www.xda-developers.com/this-is-touchwiz-lag-and-it-better-not-show-its-face-in-the-s7/

How far did you guys get with root and xposed? How much bloat and services are you able to remove/disable? And most importantly, does it have a positiv effect on the handsets performance?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Shoulon:
I can't speak for most as I wasn't really Into modifying my s6 edge plus. But the reason for that was it was the most smooth galaxy I ever had. So smooth I never used the close all apps button. Would reset it maybe once a month. Before that I used to play with roms like a flashaholic. I've owned every samsung galaxy device back since the epic and they all needed tweaking til I had the edge plus. I am a very multitasking heavy user btw.

Later down the line I did root though. Simply for adblock and to block youtube video ads via xposed. No bloat removal. Since u can disable most eyesore bloat already without root. (Tmobile user btw. Hear Verizon has the bad end of the stick on bloat)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] kimern:
Helpful, thanks! So you never felt the services and bloat apps stole resources you could put to use elsewhere, as the phone comes with enough resources to handle anything you throw at it?

Owned a LG G2 and G3, and remember getting very annoyed by apps and services running that i never used.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Shoulon:
Yep, 4gb of ram is a lot. Aside the powerful cpu, the 4gbs really is what makes a difference imo
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] mocsab:
I have the Note 5 and the Nexus 6p - from a performance basis - anecdotally - I can't tell much difference between the two - they are both super fast - tons of memory - and so on.

Benchmarks (for what they are worth) I get slightly better results on Antutu with the Nexus than I do with the Note 5 - but they both do exceptionally well -86.000 to 90,000.

I am running a heavily modded TW rom on the Note 5 and CM 13 on the nexus.

Both are rooted - both running xposed - Samsung Bloat has been removed by the Rom Createtor - TEKXodus HYBRID but there are obviously more things in the Note 5 *(Samsung things) than Google put into the Nexus 6p

I don't know if that answers your questions or not - I am not a developer so I can't give you a big technical breakdown on the comparisons - just my anecdotal experiences... hope it helps.

By the way - I CAN'T WAIT for the S7 Edge - really excited about this one - bloat and all! LOL In my view, NO ONE makes smartphones as good as Samsung!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] tehpud:
I read somewhere that Samsung was aware of bloat and lessening bloat on the S7 lineup. Obviously we won't know until they arrive to our doors.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] kxhaz:
I have a Note 5 and will be moving the the S7 Edge. I have not rooted the Note 5 as I wanted Android Pay to work. However I did but the app Package Disabler Pro (Samsung) for $1.95 and you have full control to disable any apps without rooting the phone. I had moved from the N6 to the Note 5 when we switched to T-Mobile a few months ago and the Note 5 is the smoothest phone I have ever had. Plus after setting up I have never had to charge the battery mid-day, averaging over 18 hours with 4 hours screen time and 25% still remaining. I have jump on demand so I wanted to get the newest thing. Can't wait to see what the S7 Edge can do.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] contentryder:
Package Disabler Pro without root ftw! It really does boost battery life and reduction of lag, big time. Just need to figure out what not to disable (when using "disable all bloatware") to be able to use Samsung Pay. *also untick mms cause that will prevent mms from sending/receiving.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] kxhaz:
Here is a link to the Note 5 where there is an XML file that can be loaded for Package Disabler Pro. I used this on my Note 5 as a starting point and removed a few of the items that I wanted to still be able to use. I am planning to use my current setting on my S7 Edge when I get it in a day or two.

Hi

I am using Lenovo K3 Note (50a40). Reverse Tethering Option not seen in Android 5.1
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enablee:
Hello, I bought from eBay Htc one m9 and today I have got the phone and I found that's is an M9w model.

I can't find any info about this model so I thought maybe some one here knows..

Thanks.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oliver962464:
:p It's China version. You can see CID is HTCCN_701. Can use wcdma/FDD LTE/TD LTE(Band 39 is not support).

Use 810 Ver 2.0.:silly:
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaqman89:
So, this is a GSM version isn't it?

Is it safe to put a international (401) or unlocked (617) ruu?
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivadow:
Yes. As far as I can tell the m9w is gsm only.

Beamed in by telepathy.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaqman89:
This somewhat gets me confused.

I bought a used one with s-off condition, and found it was using stock marshmallow sprint firmware (651).

If it's gsm only, then wouldn't it have an issue with sprint firmware,which is for CDMA?

After reading a lot, I was under the impression that you can't switch firmwares between gsm and CDMA.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] computerslayer:
Yikes - pretty sure you can't, and that trying is a great way to brick your device. I'd guess that the model you have is somehow a CDMA version. Perhaps you could post some device information for us to research to help you determine exactly what you've got?
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaqman89:
Thanks. I also thought that should be the case as well.

Anyway, this is from fastboot.

(bootloader) kernel: lk
(bootloader) product: htc_himawhl
(bootloader) version: 1.0
(bootloader) imei: 3572xxxx453xxxx
(bootloader) version-main: 3.41.651.21
(bootloader) boot-mode: download
(bootloader) version-baseband: 2.14.C1144076@51030
(bootloader) version-bootloader: 1.0.0.0000
(bootloader) mid: 0PJA20000
(bootloader) cid: SPCS_001

I'm aware that mid and cid could be changed using fastboot commands, but I never heard about changing the product field if this is really m9w version.

Anyway, I checked the imei with the box, and it matches.

The label on the box says it's m9w.

If i checked based on active bands, it is a cdma phone with only sprint 4g bands available, but going by imei (checked on imeidata.net), I got the bands are supposed to match witth the international model. I don't know how reliable that site is, though.

GSM 1800, GSM 1900, GSM 900, GSM850 (GSM800), LTE FDD BAND 1, LTE FDD BAND 20, LTE FDD BAND 28, LTE FDD BAND 3, LTE FDD BAND 5, LTE FDD BAND 7, LTE FDD BAND 8, LTE TDD BAND 38, LTE TDD BAND 40, LTE TDD BAND 41, WCDMA FDD Band I, WCDMA FDD Band II, WCDMA FDD Band V, WCDMA FDD Band VIII

Would that data be sufficient to see anything strange?
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivadow:
A little digging turns up that sprint spark is the most likely carrier using td-lte.

Cdma devices dont have a sim while gsm devices do. That's why you can't xflash. M9 gsm sort of does both.

Beamed in by telepathy.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaqman89:
Sorry if I'm not following entirely.

So you are saying that it is possible for m9w to be flashed using sprint firmware which would explains my case above?
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivadow:
It depends.

If your network is "sprint" then you need to check if the phone has a sim card port. If it does then you have a gsm phone. If not then it's cdma.

Sprint also does gsm phones but the question is "how do you know if the firmware you're downloading is cdma or gsm?". Because you CANNOT cross flash a cdma firmware to a gsm device or vice versa.

So, presuming you DO have a sim card port it's gsm for sure so you can treat it as a generic gsm device BUT sprint are known for making their devices difficult to work with, but that could be cdma devices.. So yes, with gsm you should be able to mess with it to flash stuff but make sure you make a backup the very second you get into TWRP (everything except data) and, if you can, make the files available to flippy for others to recover their devices (your contribution for the help you have had and will get?). I can host the files forever on my gdrive with my m9 backup if needed and flippy will add them to his help thread in the general section.

So, by common locigal deduction, we don't know for sure but now you know how to tell if it is gsm or cdma but still be careful with firmwares as one mistake = a doorstop.

[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] computerslayer:
For what it's worth, the SKU you're software is reporting is 651 - that's definitely a CDMA version (Sprint).
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flippy498:
Sprint-branded M9s are

always

CDMA devices. Since LTE exists CDMA phones use sim cards as well. Please be carefull with such posts as the one I quoted. People might think they own a GSM device although they don't.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivadow:
Sorry, not 100% true at all. Sprint have sprint spark which is td-lte and uses gsm devices. I did extensive research into it last night.

If the cdma phones use simcards then those devices are gsm. Cdma devices are tuned at the factory for specific networks hence the lack of simcard slot. Simcards support gsm and the m9 with a sim doesn't support cdma but instead wcdma along with all the gsm bands too.

So I'm willing to bet a testicle. You?.

Beamed in by telepathy.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaqman89:
In short, I think this means, sprint is giving me a hard time lol.

So, just to summarize:

- From the box and imei, it seems I have m9w model (GSM)

- According to firmware, and available bands, I have sprint network (CDMA)

- Judging by the availability of a sim card slot (the provider I am using is GSM), it's definitely GSM capable.

So, going for that, it seems that it really is a CDMA model, just with different brandings?

Am I right?

As for the backup, I don't mind sharing it, though I don't see much benefit, since I have tried a sprint RUU, and it works fine.

I also used ViperOne and using only Sprint kernel would make it be able to recieve network signal.

So, I think it's safe to say that the one I am using one of Sprint variant, so I should be careful when cross-flashing.

CMIIW.

[MENTION=4460858]shivadow[/MENTION]:

Link #1

Link #2

Link #3 (and Link #4 for comparison)

The Sprint M9 is not a traditional CDMA phone but that's due to LTE being a GSM technology and therefore requiring a sim card*. Nevertheless it's still CMDA enough for not being compatible with GSM firmware like the dev edition (617) or the wwe version (401). My statement is still valid. If you tell people every phone with a sim slot is a GSM device they may try to flash GSM RUUs on CDMA devices and brick their phone this way.

* Well, and because CDMA carriers probably understood that their phones need to support at least some GSM bands if they don't want to lose all customers who travel to other countries where CDMA most likely isn't supported at all.

Edit [MENTION=5701712]shaqman89[/MENTION]: Can you please take a look at the bottom of the backside of your M9? HTC engraved the model id at this place on the European WWE version. I don't know for sure but I guess that this might be the case for the other versions of the M9, as well. If you own a sprint M9 you should find "0PJA200" there. (The engraving lacks two zeros if you compare it with the MID that you get with fastboot getvar.)
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaqman89:
You are right. It's really faint and small, but there is a model id there.

It is 0PJA200. I guess that's settle it and could be hard confirmation that this is a sprint variant.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivadow:
I owe you a testicle but I have no obligation to pay up on the clause that neither of us actually know what the hell is going on.. [emoji12]

But, what does that mean for the m9w?. Have we established that its a sprint phone and the regular firmware is ok or does it have an alter ego like jekyll and hyde?. Is there an easy way to find out if it'll be locked out, like branding etc.. Can you use any sim for any network?. A test on a 3g only network could reveal some truth?. Will the m9 take a 3g sim card?..

Beamed in by telepathy.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flippy498:
The sprint phone and any GSM firmware are incompatible due to the different partition layout. The "problem" of this thread lies in the naming of the phone/thread. There are several variants called M9w which all have different MIDs (and slightly different hardware). Just like almost every GSM M9 is called M9u. That's why I prefer identifying them via the MID or their codename. The number part of the MID or the ul/uhl/wl/whl ending of the codename tell you exactly which model is lying in front of you. ;)

Newer CDMA phones (every model that uses LTE) have some GSM frequencies enabled. On the one hand for being able to use LTE and on the other hand since many US customers who traveled to non-CDMA countries prefered GSM carriers in the US, as well, since they could keep their GSM phone whenever they left the US. Many CDMA customers had to buy a GSM phone and a sim card whenever they left the US due to the lack of CDMA on the rest of the world.

As far as I know sprint phones are sim-locked. However, you can contact sprint and request an unlock code so that non-sprint sim cards can be used, as well. Nevertheless, the sprint version doesn't support all GSM frequencies so you might not get any reception if your GSM carrier doesn't use the frequencies that are supported by the phone. That's why it's in almost every case impossible to get LTE with a non-sprint sim card on a sprint M9. (The same apllies to the verizon variant.)
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivadow:
So basically what you're saying is "sell the m9w and buy a wwe"?.

Beamed in by telepathy.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flippy498:
Well, not really. :p There is no variant that supports every existing frequency. Therefore, the best variant for user 1 isn't necessarily the best variant for user 2, as well.

Scenario a): You live in the US

If you own a sprint sim card the sprint m9 is totally fine. If you own a verizon sim card you should get the verizon variant. If you own a t-mobile US or an AT&T sim card and rely on VoLTE you should get one of their dedicated variants. If you don't care about VoLTE but own a GSM sim card you should get either the unlocked or the dev edition (both are actually the same phone - only the CIDs differ slightly and the dev edition's bootloader is already unlocked).

Scenario b): You live outside the US

If you rely on VoLTE you should get a phone that got branded by your carrier. If you don't care about VoLTE you should get one of the unbranded versions. There is SKU 401 for Europe, SKU 708 and 709 for Asia and SKU 710 for Australia and New Zealand. They're all (the branded and the unbranded versions) the same if you look at the hardware but the firmware is optimized for the dedicated continent/country/carrier.

With S-OFF you can always convert your GSM phone from one version to another. However, the frequencies that are supported by the US GSM variants differ slightly from the ones of the rest of the world.

Tl;dr: You should always choose the variant that suits you best.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaqman89:
I believe [MENTION=5872674]Flippy498[/MENTION] explanation is correct.

M9w is one generic name that have some hardware variants.

If we unlock the phone, like I did, you could use any sim network, but it'll work only on available bands, just like flippy predicted.

That was also why I wanted to understand which variant is this phone, so I could better configure the usable bands.

[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaqman89:
It seems you are using sprint firmware, so I assume it's a firmware device, same like me. Going from that, you could actually use any stock based ROM available (read in the specific threads to be sure, but afaik, all have support for various carriers).

So in short, yes you could use that ROM. I haven't tried it yet though, for now I'm using Viperone.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abdinsyakirin:
I recently bricked a M9 and just discovered that it is M9w, and found this thread online. Story: My phone working fine but after I flashed ICE Nougat rom (flashed on top of marshmallow), the phone was not working properly. I couldn't get mobile data but I still can do call and sms. Then I bricked it after flashed GSM RUU even though this phone is 0PJA100 and I believe it was with sprint software when I purchased it. HTC M9 is the most complicated phone that I ever used because of the differences in software and carrier. So cross flashing it still can mess it up right even though it should support GSM?

Beamed in by telepathy.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flippy498:
Did you guys buy the phones second hand?

The M9w has either the MID 0PJA20000 (Sprint) or 0PJA30000 (Verizon). It's never 0PJA1000. And if your phone was running sprint firmware then it never was a GSM phone. Sprint's firmware only runs on the dedicated CDMA version of the M9 (0PJA20000).

There are plenty of warnings here on xda (e.g. in the ReadMe thread) that explain that cross-flashing is a bad idea. And this isn't a M9-specific phenomenon. CDMA and GSM are completely different technologies. With the M9 you have at least a small chance to recover your phone since the phone still boots after a cross-flash. Other phones won't even boot/turn on after you flashed the wrong firmware.
