Take a look at this post. There are some instructions to change your firmware no matter what region or previous ROM you have and also, you can find a fix for the balong "bug". Read carefully, it may help you or give you some ideas. I've just followed it and now I have B188 with no bugs and Dual SIM enabled. Good luck.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] broad_st_bully:
Long story short my rooted Note 4 died, most likely from a hardware failure from what I've gathered on here, and I need to flash an unrooted/stock file/tar/zip so I can go through Sprint to get a replacement.

Odin fails as soon as I click "start" so that won't work.

I can, for some odd reason, flash CyanogenMod 6.0.1 on the phone but it doesn't work right...when I click reboot it just turns off and doesn't start back up.

I've pretty much given up on getting the phone to work but since I am stuck paying for it I would like to revert to stock if possible, get a new replacement and sell it. I already got a Note 5 but the 4 was only 2 months old when it died.

Thanks in advance.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j_svas:
I am sure there are many others with same issue mm_read fail!!! No fix yet!!!

Mine also died the same way...

To flash original tar, believe me you need to cool the device, remove battery wait for an hour and Odin flash quickly.

... But after that flash also we will have restart issues!! :(
[Android Head-Units] RussianConcussion:
Hey guys Ive been reading threads for a while and ive been trying to figure out everything about rooting and roms etc. but im still unsure of a few things. I ordered a 10.2" Android 4.4.4 headunit for my lancer and I think I want to root it just to make it more customizable, I havent received it yet but I want to be ready when it is here. the main things I want to do is be able to change Icon size, the layout, boot animation, auto wallpaper changer and have a nice clean stock android experience while keeping all the car related features of the car (radio, STC, blutooth, GPS etc) any cool root-only add on apps would be a big bonus.

So heres what Ive learned that I need to know about my unit. It has a Cortex 9 1.6 Gigahertz 4 core RK3188 1024x600

I cant figure out what to do with that information, what do Install onto it? how do I do it off an SD? How do I make sure I dont mess it up and have a broken system that doesnt work?

After Its rooted how do I start tweaking Stuff?

Thank you very much if you take time to help me out, I appreciate it.

Im sorry if what im asking has been covered somewhere and I just missed it.

Have a good day everyone.

Hey guys,

I think we need our own thread to discuss about our preorders and future development related to our model.

so, I already preorder mine from Koodo and they are saying it should ship after March 17th. But, I'm hopping i receive it by march 11th. So, Those that made a preorder, what carrier and when will you be getting it?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] ron9349:
Pre-order at Authorized Bell dealer. Put $50 deposit and will be in store pickup. Haven't heard any news/update with regards to when I will get my phone. Hoping for March 11 or earlier! How come Koodo shipping March 17th? Really disappointed that only black available for pre-order!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] ekjl:

And only black color is available for pre-order too from Telus :crying:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] KWoods41:
Pre-ordered from Rogers on Feb 24th. I'm 676th in line.

Could be a loooong wait. I remember getting a call from Rogers about picking up my pre-ordered Note5 about 9 days after I had walked into a store and bought one already. My guess is that Rogers (and the other carriers) won't start shipping until the 11th, then won't be in any hurry to get them to us pre-orderers.

That being said, a free Gear VR is worth an extra week or so of waiting.

I preordered the S7 Flat from the Samsung Experience Store (Sherway Gardens).

After much thought, I ended up calling them and switching my order to the edge.

I'm kind of nervous about the screen getting scratched though since its so exposed... There isn't that many screen protectors out either on Amazon (CA)

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] wasdly:
Yes it should be. I pre ordered mine in Samsung store, the staffs told me that it will be unlocked. They did not even ask me which carrier I'm on, so I guess it is unlocked for sure. And they have silver and gold, but these will be available later this month (ETA is Mar 28)

There is probably like only 3-4 locations in all of Canada.

It's pretty cool though, you get a free Gear VR and 128 GB MicroSD card when you pre-order, plus its unlocked if you buy it out.

You guys gimp the security, speed, and reliability of your phone and encourage others to do the same; it's sickening. His question didn't even have anything to do with rooting.

I've rooted phones for years but it doesn't feel nearly as necessary as it used to. Not to mention all of the problems that result from it: no Samsung pay, unencrypted internal storage, no Knox, slower boot time, random reboots, increased memory usage, and incompatible or poorly tested xposed modules can cause a myriad of bugs.

The level of dillusion is insane in this community.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Zer0_:
No issues here. Samsung Pay is not even available in Canada yet, and I'm happy using my credit cards regardless.

Boot time has not increased at all, memory usage is the same, don't care too much for knox.

Please also note that Xposed isn't the only thing that can be done after rooting. Having the ability to remove system apps, and having access to root functions and folders is never a bad thing.

Also, no one is forcing you to do it, so chill out.

I'm sure when someone decides to root, they will end up doing some research on it, and they can decide for themselves if they want to do it or not... no one is holding a gun to their head lol.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Brava27:
Thanks for the laugh.

You're in the wrong forum to blabbing about delusions pal. This is a development forum, Google XDA. I suggest you go to android forums where all the noobs that don't root hangout.

Bloat or not. You can disable or remove it easily without root. Don't worry about it. Canadian bloat hardly is much compared to the USA.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Brava27:
Actually the process is very easy. There is already backup firmware incase you screw up. Rooted with xposed, viper4android and adblocking is amazing.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] sc2ascend:
No but you guys aren't giving everyone 100% of the information about rooting and you speak about it with a bias. There are pluses and minuses and rooting is good for some, but you guys just tell everyone to root, stop it!

Brava27 is guilty of rooting, installing xposed and then posting about his random reboots in a thread with a girl who didn't mod her phone. Essentially he's telling her it's normal and giving a false sense of reassurance. Its not normal, you ****ed up your phone and she needs to exchange hers because she DIDNT flash xposed and is getting random reboots every day.

So to recap I am not opposed to rooting, but our phone aren't the same as they were 2 years ago. There are more considerations to take into account when rooting and you really need to share ALL of the information (good and bad) with people before they root. Don't just tell them to do it and cherry pick the good things. That just does everyone a disservice.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Brava27:

She was getting them multiple times a day, that is a hardware issue. Why can't you admit you were doing her a disservice by not fully disclosing what you did to your phone before sharing you have the same problem to make her feel better. She doesn't need to feel better, she needs her $1000 phone to work properly, especially if it's not modded.

Go correct everyone on this forum doing a "disservice". Being rooted or not does not affect your system, do some research.

I personally chose not to root my s7e because of samsung pay. That's all there is no other reason. Rooting your phone just to install titanium backup to remove bloat while staying with the stock firmware and kernel has 0 impact. If someone starts flashing xposed and other stuff without proper knowledge, it's on them. Every single mod or rom thread starts with a disclaimer. I don't want to root but I root the hell out of my n6p my choice. Can't single one guy for other peoples mistakes.
