[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dork997:
-As far as i know Only Verizon and at&t have locked bootloaders (You wont be able to flash anything)

-Now a days samsung has started partially locking bootloaders on all its devices (910C + 910F) Any note 4 running COJ5 rom has a partially locked bootloader, which means you can not downgrade to 5.0.1 or 4.4.4 but you are still able to root and Flash coj5 based custom roms, recovery etc.

-If you buy a phone from local carrier you can turn it on at the shop go to settings>about> Check if the baseband version is COJ5 or COL or anything newer if it is then you wont be able to downgrade to earlier versions of stockrom but you can still root and do stuff.

- you can ask the company reps if the phone is locked to work on their carrier only (you can pay them to sim-unlock the phone)

Bought the Trianium Tempered Glass, it was labeled on Amazon for S7 and S6 but I needed something asap so gave it a shot.

Check it out here ABSOLUTELY ridiculous. I believe they just took old stock of S6 screen protectors and stuck a S7 sticker on the back.

It fits, but if you installed it it would slice your front facing camera right in half.

I know everyone is going to start looking for the best screen protectors but this is one everyone should definitely avoid.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] Corwinder:
Thanks for that. So many of these early screen protectors aren't fitting. This is rediculus.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] Dstu10:
This is a known issues for the note 5. I have been through at least 7 screen protectors and each one leaves a halo effect around the screen. There are not going to be a lot of options to avoid this. The only thing I can recommend is buying any non-tempered protectors and trimming the edges. The only problem with this is that your whole screen will not be covered.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] seoulbrova:
That's not true, I have a Skinomi one installed right now with absolutely no halo. It does not go edge to edge but there is no visible halo with it.

This one wasn't an issue of a halo, it doesn't even fit at all. If you were to fit it to your phone it would install but the front camera is cut off.

But yes you are right, I have ordered some clear protectors as well.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] Dstu10:
I tried a skinomi on my note 5 had decent halo. I wish I would have taken pictures. It seems like it could be hit and miss depending on the cut of the screen protector and how much beveling on your specific phone. I may be willing to try the skinomi on my s7 it just gets expensive trying 5 different screen protectors.

As per topic.

Any dual sim phone on the market, which allows 3g voice calls on 2nd Sim, if Primary Sim is used for Data (4g/3g).

Hey guys, is sky go still blocked on rooted devices? I have an S5 that i rooted a while ago but returned to stock for the purpose of sky go, Has anyone found a way around it? i know there was rootcloak and a few other apps to try and prevent it but those didnt work back then, Hope for a reply. thanks alot guys.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RuffBuster:
Wasn't there a sky go xposed module for this? I maybe wrong... I use "hide my root" and a stock kernel when using the "all 4" channel 4 on demand app. Maybe the same will work for you? Root cloak didn't work me, the normal or xposed version both were fails for me. But the app I mentioned did the job.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingqueen:
There's finally a way round the restriction that prevents people with rooted Android devices from being able to use Sky Go.

Follow this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/android/software/mod-magisk-v1-universal-systemless-t3432382

It involves:

1) returning to stock ROM (unrooted)

2) installing a custom recovery such as TWRP and booting into it

3) installing Magisk

4) installing Magisk's version of phh's Superuser

5) rebooting into system

6) installing phh's Superuser app

7) installing Magisk's management app

8) whenever wanting to use Sky Go, disabling root in Magisk's app

9) re-enabling root afterwards in the same app.

I can confirm this works reliably. I have it running on my rooted LG V10, having never managed to get Sky Go to run on a rooted device before.

Do bung the developer who invented Magisk a donation if it's worked for you and if you can.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fabioweb76:
My device: Gt-p7500 with lollipop aosp.

Sky go was detecting the rom (not rooted ) wasn't stock and it considered that as a root problem showing the error message. After many tests I assumed sky go was detecting the aosp rom by reading a string "key tests " in the build number and looking the SeLinux mode permissive.

The solution was: rooting the device, mounting system with twrp, downloading app "prop-editor "(play store) , edit the parameters of the build.prop file (under folder system) and replace every "key tests " string( with whatever you want) in the parameters., set enforcing mode of Se Linux by flasing a zip file ( https://xdaforums.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=12047) After that full unrooted the device, reboot....and finally everything works. I hope it will be useful. Ciao.

Hi all,

Hey,

Is there any way of changing the RGB colours of the screen

root and an unlocked bootloader? The method shown here looks okay but i wondered whether there were any better alternatives for those with root access and custom recoveries. When i compare the screens of my G4 and OnePlus One, the OPO has much purer whites and so i'd like to adjust the G4 settings to improve upon this.

Cheers! :)
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] P650SE:

[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VANLUC:
I know that "AL10" is "China region" and "L29" is several others regions.

But do someone know what mean the differents codes on the different roms C185 - C636 - C432 - C900 ????????????????

3 days that I try to know what this codes mean !!!

On mine from "Wondamobile" (L29 gold 64 Go 2 sims) was "L29????B103", I've flashed the "L29C432B152" rom with the method "dload" and 3 buttons without unlock, without TRWP or anything, and it became "L29C900B152" and I don't understand why C432 => C900 ????
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themissionimpossible:
NXT-L29C432 is the 3/32 EU model and the 4/64 model is not yet available for Europe.

You probably had previously NXT-L29C185B103.

With the flashing method you used you'll get NXT-l29C432B152 only if previously having NXT-L29C432B133.

IMHO NXT-L29C900 should be a generic model type, the one that appears in the build.prop file of every NXT-L29 Mate 8.

Today I heard a soft plop coming from inside of my wizard when playing Bejeweled II.

After that the device stopped responding, though the screen remained lightened.

I reseted it with the stylo and now it freezes somewhere in the middle of the boot sequence. I see the screen with my IPL, SPL, GSM and OS version.

I'm also able to enter color-bars menu, the one that appears when I flesh ROMS.

As a matter of fact I was able to flash new roms two times so far.

Originally I had TNT 5.0, then I fleshed NBD 9.2, it didn't help so I flashed original dutch T-Mobile ROM.

Still the same problem. Seems that hardware is slightly damaged. What's more, there is no orange light when the device is put on charge.

The main question is, IS IT DEAD?

And what can I do, if anything, to bring the device back to life?

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superawesomeme:
Technically it would be possible but (and correct me if I'm wrong) a lot of Touchwiz is either closed source and/or built specifically for Samsung hardware. Even if it could be reverse engineered there's no guarantee it could be made to work with LG hardware causing issues with pretty much everything.
[Xperia Z5 General] korom42:
Hi all,

Without long introductions , this my first Sony device I came from LG G4 and I had many issues with the camera of my Xperia Z5 and I've seen a lot of z5 users complaining about the same problems of Z5 poor camera performance :

1- It takes pictures with blurry left side (more noticed with landscapes)

2- Details are soft and not clear (when zooming the picture) and the sharpness is really bad compared the Galaxy S6 , Iphone 6S and LG G4

3- The camera has troubles with focusing on close objects ( less than 10 cm )

4- Aggressive corners image distortion

5- Blue/purple tint (on low light pictures)

6- Slow and laggy shutter speed which is not accpeted for such high end specs

7- Only some limited manual controls

Note that My Z5 is only 2 weeks old and I had no contact with water , clean lens no scratches , not using any film or case , latest camera app and system updates are installed , factory reste doesn't help .

Some experts says that soft details and lake of sharpness in Z5 camera pictures are due to the bad image post processing and aggressive denoising algorithms/engine , simply it is caused by Sony's weak camera software .

Note that apple and samsung flagships use Sony camera sensors , and we all can see that they provide much better results than those same sensors on Sony phones . So what's the problem ? why this is not working with Sony Phones ? simply because both of Samsung and apple know how to make a good software for their cameras .

It is true that the camera has a very good dynamic range and provide good colors , but this is not enough for such priced phone.

Is it really "The best camera in the world" ? I personally don't think so .Sony needs to wake up to those issues and try to find solutions otherwise they will loose many clients .

I hope that Sony developers are aware of those issues and will provide fixes if possible .

I wonder if those problems are fixed in the new Xperia X Performance ?

I wonder also how DxOmark.com is giving the Xperia Z5 a such

high score

even with all those issues ?

Do you feel that you have been fooled by this Camera that Sony claims that it is "The best phone camera in the world" ?

Let us know that in replies if you experienced the same problems with your phone .

As expected you will see a lot of

denial

in replies here. So I quote :

"I understand that , I also love my Z5 but we have to be honest and acknowledge that this camera suffer from many problems" away of any fan boys wars :)

I think it's time for Sony to learn some things from its competitors .

This is SONY and I have the exact same problem from the time of Xperia X10i (first SONY android smartphone):confused:

The camera has troubles with focusing on close objects ( less than 10 cm )

This is a wide lens and therefore has a limited focusing on close objects.

I think I have read that it has a limit of 12 cm!

Only some limited manual controls

This problem is known to you prior to actually buying the phone!

Whoo boy there are some people in denial here.

Their camera algorithms destroying/smoothing out detail is not acceptable these days and it's not okay that that's "just how they do it".

Also agreed, the low light blue tint problem is atrocious. I'd rather have a dimmer photo or even more grain that I can tweak if I want than destroying it with that in the hopes of brightening a subject which then gets smoothed out to look like a LEGO.

For a 2015 flagship, the still photos are embarrassing.

Maybe it gets good reviews for the wide angles and good video, but there is legitimate beef here.
