[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] nkarim:
Try Odin

ust a quick suggestion. You can use Odin to flash an official firmware of another region as long as it's the same hardware. This doesn't trip Knox or count as root as you're using official Samsung firmware. That way, you could buy a Canadian phone, then flash there international firmware. If there's a problem flash back the Canadian firmware and retain your warranty. Try it with your s4

I got my hands on a Sm-G935F at chrismas time, I was hoping this would be a great layover until the new s8 comes out. It's unlocked and I'm using it on Bell but reception is horrible. The S7 i had before that I handed down to my wife had way better reception. There is no Canadian firmware for the SM-G935F that I can find. Any suggestions to help make it better.

Help: My device does not pass from Unlocked Bootloader screen.

Hi everyone!

I'm from Mexico and I have a Moto X 2014 (XT1097) before the brick had installed Android 5.1 Lollipop installed by the Retail Brazil RSD 5.1 and everything worked very well. Days previous to the softbrick, the battery was 100% after a few minutes completely discharged and load it again to turn it on. The day of SoftBrick I received a message "the app fb has stopped working" my phone became very slow and unresponsive, the message from the app did not disappear, so turn off the phone and turn it did not pass the screen Bootloader unlocked.

I tried to flash by RSD Lite software:

RET_MX 5.1

RET_BR 6.0

RET_LA 6.0

And the message that appears is:

Failed flashing process. 2/25 oem fb_mode_set -> Phone returned FAIL

In the lines of the device code reads:

cmd:getvar:max-sparse-size

cmd: oem fb_mode_set

failed to validate boot image

Boot up failed

It is noteworthy that can enter fastboot mode, I have the phone unlocked bootloader and load but does not turn off until the battery runs out.

And I tried to do Wipes data (Factory Reset) byfastboot and throw me a few lines of code and the screen, the result is off:

qe1/1

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_install

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_kmsg

I tried manually and flash each of the commands via ADB and me rejects all.

I recently installed official marshmallow 6.0 on my verizon XT1096 from other variant like xt1092 after unlocking bootloader and now I also getting same error to re lock it. I was irritating by bootloader unlocked warning screen. If anyone knows please tell me also. But anyhow I got rid from that warning screen by installing logo.bin file in fastboot. By following this link.

[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AGISCI:
To be able to relock it, you must be 100% stock. For example you would have to flash back the full 5.1verizon firmware.

But there is no point in locking it. Locking it does not restore the warrany, it was voided when you unlocked it.

Also it does not make the warning bootloader unlocked message disappear. That message will only disappear if you flash a different boot logo.

Honestly, there is not much point to relocking it.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abrarakram19:
Thanks Sir, I understood the point. But one thing to ask, can I flash back the stock 5.1 factory images of XT 1095 instead of Verizon. By following the factory restore instructions. Actually I want it be 100% pure stock XT1095, just like convert it and get clean OTA of 6.0 stock without any issue.

Because when I was installing 6.0 xt1092 stock on it I got some errors

Like failed check boot & recovery

shown in image below and I am doubtful it is not 100% pure because now when I connect it to my PC it still detect it as xt1096.

I am not rooted or custom recovery.

Please sir little bit more help.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AGISCI:
No. It has to be the xt1096 firmware to lock the bootloader.

I don't know weather or not I should go back for the Marshmallow update or not

CM13 is fine and stable but idk..

Let me know what you guys think I should do, I mainly went CM because of the customizability
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiRi2000:
Depends on what you want...

1.If you want battery and simplisity you should go for stock rom (i recommand Echoe Rom its what I am using and i love both performance and battery).

2.And if you want more performance and a lot of customization you should go for CM13 (I recomand to use BeansTalk or Bliss there my favorite).

My question is do you think replacing the LCD and digitizer will fix this issue? Or is it worse like a motherboard issue? maybe one of you guys may have encountered this problem?

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] RPG0:
I have a little problem here: If i turn on HSDPA i get the H icon and REALLY GOOD internet speed, but i can't make video calls. If i turn it off, i get 3G icon, pretty good internet speed and video calls. Can't i have HSDPA turned on AND also have 3G (video calls) ?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] austinsnyc:
HSDPA is used only for downloading data when you hvae it on. Thats a little starnge and sounds more like a bug to me than something wrong with the network or Kaiser
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] RPG0:
Thanks, i kinda figured it's a bug, although it could be obvious for someone who actually knows how this stuff works that you can't have 3G and HSDPA at the same time.

Can anybody try to make a video call while H icon is displayed, please? (no need to wait for someone to answer, i get "can't make video call" immediately, just dial a bogus number)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Ves:
I rarely get the H icon, only at the aiport at sertain places. But like austinsnyc said, i would have expected it would switch back automatically
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kaiserchief:
As far as I'm aware, you can't make a video call on any mobile phone while there is a data transfer in progress.

Basically the answer is "yes" because a data transfer session and a video call are mutually exclusive, and the phone only uses HSDPA (and shows an "H") when there's an active session, so you can't make a video call when the "H" is showing...

Just to confuse things further, I'm pretty sure it's the network operator that decides how long their customer's phones hold on to an HSDPA connection...

T-Mobile and Vodafone in the UK are the only HSDPA-enabled networks that I've used, and they both return me to a "normal" 3G connection immediately after a data transfer, so the "H" is only displayed briefly - when the phone is actively transferring data.

After the data is downloaded, the HSDPA connection is closed immediately and my phone switches back to the "3G" icon, which allows me to make a video call. If your network allows the HSDPA session to stay active, then you'd need to end it yourself before making a call...

(BTW, this is just my understanding, please feel free to tell me I'm talking rubbish!)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] RPG0:
Thanks guys, your info got me a lot closer to the truth (i now know you can have 3G while HSDPA is enabled in settings).

Those really not interested skip this part:

My problem is that i NEVER see the 3G icon and i can't make video calls if i enable HSDPA, even if i don't make a data connection, just enable it in settings (in my network even the name of the operator changes when i have 3G coverage so i know for sure that if i enable HSDPA i never get anything 3G, no data speed, no video call)

To make things more clear: it's like i have two phones:

1. with HSDPA or GPRS depending on location and availability, this is what i get if i enable HSDPA in settings, no video calls, operator name always "Vodafone RO"

2. with 3G or GPRS depending on location and availability, this is what i get if i disable HSDPA in settings, i can make / receive video calls, operator name "3G Vodafone RO" or "Vodafone RO" when 3G not available

I guess this is operator dependent, and it's probably something with my network, but it's really disturbing since i cant have both video calls AND really high speed data, only one at a time with soft reset. I guess i'll call thier customer service.

Sorry for the big block of text...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] starless-red:
Pricipally, a 3G phone could handle a PS (packet switch) connection and a CS (channel switch) connection simultaneously. The Kaiser is, however, apparently not in this class. The unability to set up a video call while there is "H" in the display can be due to the network configuration. If the operator uses the same carrier for both "normal" PS and HS(D)PA you can probably perform a video call while you see the "H". If the network uses separate carriers for CS/PS and HSPA it is quite likely that the operator will not let you make a video call while your terminal is listenig to a HSPA-enabled carrier.

[Windows 10 Mobile] pbanj:
is there a way to run a battery calibration on windows 10 mobile? the wifes 1520 seems to be having battery issues. phone says it has like 45% battery left but then shuts off. i figured i would try updating to the win 10 beta to see if it fixed it but it hasnt. figured i would ask if there was a way to do it or if there is a way to do it on win 8.1 as i could just downgrade it back to that and try it.
[Windows 10 Mobile] Dude_Virus:
I am facing the same issue with my Lumia 1520, the battery drain is extremely fast and device just shuts off with a message that battery is critically low. After that if I let it sit for a minute and then reboot then I see battery left 35%. But again after 2 minute use it does the same and continues. I installed a battery app which gives me a graph on the charge and discharge cycle and that proves that the calibration is messed up. After charging normally uptil 49% it directly shot up to 100% in the next minute reporting battery is full. While discharging it does the same just drops instantly to 50% after 5 -10 minute normal use.
[Windows 10 Mobile] VSparxx:
Guys just don't waste your time, I have seen this many times on many 1520, this is a sign of a dead battery, just replace it, you will save yourselfes a lot of time and nerves.

Here is what you need to look for: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Original-BV...288161?hash=item3abb1c2961:g:S~wAAOSwHaBWlKUc

Anyway the battery has circuitry that responds of it's protection and calibration and it's all on auto and can't be altered.
[Windows 10 Mobile] Dude_Virus:
I would not agree to it because if I rollback to 8.1 this calibration problem goes away. No issues at all not improper charge level. This is a windows 10 issue.
[Windows 10 Mobile] VSparxx:
No, it isn't a software issue, I myself have a 1520 and was facing the same problem a few months back, it's 100% a battery problem and you just can't do anything about it, just change it.
[Windows 10 Mobile] pbanj:
not a win 10 issue. her phone started doing it on 8.1. i tried the 10 preview to see if it would fix it

did you end up with the 80% charge issue after changing the battery? i keep seeing that be an issue after replacing the battery.
[Windows 10 Mobile] Dude_Virus:
It seems that the issue I am facing is although the same what you are but I am only facing that on the windows 10 and not on win 8.1 . I downgraded to win 8.1 and no issues at all of phone shutting off or charging calibration.

I use a battery app which shows me the discharge % and with Windows 8.1 it's hardly like 5-7 % when screen is on. With win 10 direct 17% - 20% and even if I close those apps and not keeping any background apps in win 10 I keep seeing high discharge %

Maybe you can rollback to win8.1 and do a full factory reset without restoring from backup.
[Windows 10 Mobile] pbanj:
I have already wiped the phone a few times without restoring a back. Once on 10 then I went back to 8.1 and did it twice. Still no change. I was hoping it was software that's why I tried 10 in the first place
[Windows 10 Mobile] VSparxx:
It's again because of a bad battery, for me it was the same, I bought a battery from ebay first and ended with it charging only up to 82%, so I sent the phone to the service, and they threw in a new battery and all is working great from that point, so there are some battery batches that are bad but still sold online, i'd just send it back and or request a refund.
[Windows 10 Mobile] pbanj:
who did you buy from?
[Windows 10 Mobile] VSparxx:
I bought it from the official service center in my country, although it's a bit more pricier I didn't want to risk to buy again a 82% battery from ebay.
[Windows 10 Mobile] reded23:
This is software

I have 2 x 1520's that do this now. I put new batteries in and they still do it. Battery says 60% then use the camera for a few shots and the phone shuts off. Initially comes back saying battery 5% but after a soft reset it says 60% again.
[Windows 10 Mobile] uiqjirka:
Your new batteries are poor quality non-original or fake.Buy 100% original.
[Windows 10 Mobile] Ferrybigger:

[Nexus 5X General] sanke1:
Yesterday, my trusty old iPhone 4 (5 years old) fell down and broke it's glass. I decided to replace it with Nexus 5X because timely updates and speed.

But after using it for 1 day, I think 5X is an extremely disappointing phone when it comes to performance. It's 2 powerful cores throttle within 2 minutes and then it's left to remaining 4 slow cores to do the work. So why include those powerful 2 cores to begin with?

Qualcomm messed up big time with S808 and S810. I had heard stories but I believed into company's bullcrap PR that such over heating issues have been resolved.

Nexus 5X is not a gaming device anymore as it's Adreno 418 GPU is not much faster than Adreno 330 due to heavy throttling.

₹ 20,000 ($300) price seems not worth it. I feel sorry for those who paid higher than this.

So, can anyone enlighten me as to what it may be? Could it be that the battery has shat itself? I have removed the back cover to inspect it and it looks normal, not like in some videos on Youtube where the battery itself has "pufffed up"...this I guess indicates a battery that has snuffed it :eek:
