[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Resonas4216:
I need relevant info about this question. I googled a lot but most results came about flashing ROM and some for kernels.

[QUESTION]

If I flash the wrong Custom Recovery, will my device be bricked or it will just make the recovery inaccessible?

[ABOUT DEVICE]

I use Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 SM-T531. It runs on Android 5.0.2 Stock ROM. And the device name displays "matisse3g".

[ABOUT RECOVERY]

It's a TWRP Recovery. The recovery is maintained by sub77 and the codename is "matisse".

I'm not sure if it works because I tend to be device specific on what I flash so I could prevent brickage.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trafalgar Square:
Yes, hard brick

It's a codename
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Resonas4216:
I'm done flashing it now.

Updated with sideload instructions!

*Some links may be outdated as I am not actively maintaining them. If you want to know what's the latest, just reply to the thread.

Generic instructions for sideloading OTA package:

Flashing via this method WILL WIPE EVERYTHING SO BACKUP FIRST. Short tutorial (I'm not responsible for anything that goes wrong, but this worked for people):

1) BACKUP!! IT WILL FACTORY RESET YOUR PHONE!!

2) Download package (https://xdmd.sl.attcompute.com/agents/48725/1488/SS-N920AUCU2APB2-to-U2BPE5-UP / https://mega.nz/#!eElQgD6A!CyME8PpXpK_xXcdpt6lMlh5XYzzf2ByrWr4DQf-2uUs or torrent [.CODE] magnet:?xt=urn:btih:DBFC71DCC7495932D6F43CB87598B74FAF7F3349&dn=SS-N920AUCU2APB2-to-U2BPE5-UP&tr=udp%3a%2f%2ftracker.openbittorrent.com%3a80%2fannounce&tr=udp%3a%2f%2ftracker.opentrackr.org%3a1337%2fannounce [./CODE])

3) rename file to ota.zip

4) Reboot into recovery. Turn off phone and wait a minute for it to completely turn off. Hold down Volume Up + Home + Power until you see a little Android guy. It will say Applying System Update or something like that possibly, and just let it do it's thing until a menu comes up.

5) Select Apply Update from ADB

6) Make sure you have Android Platform Tools on your computer (there's other guides for this) (recommend Android studio adb)

7) command 'adb sideload (path to file)' (path to file example: C:/Windows/Users/Me/Desktop/Ota.zip)

8) will take 5+ minutes and may sit on att screen for awhile. Wait it out. Make sure it's plugged in

...

I see March 14th in there several times... Not March 11th though...

And what does the S6 update have to do with the Note 5? These 2 updates are not going to be necessarily synonymous with each other - the framework and software packages are different between the Note series and the S series devices.

Just sayin'.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] Venom0642:
One says Today coming that's Note 5 , other March 14 for S6, so that's what it means.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] scottwood2:
Update today but it is still 5.1.1. Looks like a security update.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] s629c:
It is possible the reps don't know android well and thought security update was 6.0....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] Krayziepop:
LOL - nice. I see it now, post 26. I went through them all like 2 times looking for clues. I sucked at finding Waldo too...

On that token, I will believe it when I see it. I know how these staged rollouts go, and AT&T has never been super reliable on getting updates out lol. Let's just hope as well, that they have done their due diligence at working the bugs out... and while they are at it I hope they mess up the code and leave us a rootable loophole in the process! :cyclops:

If it was coming today, wouldn't some of us know by now? It's 11am on the "East Side".
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] s629c:
There is apparently a Pre-M update right now according to someone in another thread. Don't know when it came out or if it was included in the security date. I don't have a Note so I can't tell you much about it. But a pre-update would mean mm is about to be released

View attachment 3679404Take it with a grain of salt but here is what AT&T had to say a few minutes ago
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] austinalexan:
No that's not the case. The security update from AT&T came out on the 9th of March. Not everyone got it right away so scottwood probably got the security update late.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] TeldenW:
I got the "pre-update" you're talking about. It was yesterday or Wednesday.

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fw_haakon:
Hallo everyone,

I'm a generally VERY happy owner of a H818p recently I've run the latest updater from LG that brought Marshmellow into the G4. While I'm actually quite happy of the OS itself (small things got better), the battery on the other hand is being burnt through during the day. If I start listening to music through normal earphones (Spotify or Poweramp) the battery gets barely to evening 17-18. If I even immagine to use Bluetooth won't last more than 4 - 5 hrs.

I cannot find where to disable the new battery saving profiles and I haven't done a factory reset, but I have uninstalled all the unused apps and the problem is still the same.

Any suggestion? is there any thing I can do?

thank you all!

Hi there

I have the Sprout 4 phone and it is not rooted. Twice today my phone has downloaded the OTA update and then informs me that it will restart and install the latest security update. On both occasions, the phone restarts and then I end up with a dead android logo with an 'Error' message.

I have also tried to update it from a thread in the forum using stock recovery but this aborts fairly early in the installation process.

Any ideas/solutions?

Thanks in advance
[Micromax Canvas A1] dsbhai:
Try to clear the data of Google play services then install it again
[Micromax Canvas A1] chrome307:
@ Dsbhai

Thanks for the suggestion, I have tried it and I still encounter the same problem.

Still receiving the updates OTA from the server, but it fails to install each time.
[Micromax Canvas A1] chrome307:
I'm still unable to update my phone with this update and have even done a 'factory reset'. Initially I thought I had bricked the phone as it was stuck in the boot animation loop, however after awhile it did restart.

Is it possible to install the update using ADB or even with a Custom Recovery?
[Micromax Canvas A1] PSGRAW:
You may be able to update using a custom recovery

And as you have done a factory reset already why not flash the ROM through SP Flash tools and then update accordingly
[Micromax Canvas A1] chrome307:
Hi there

I'm reviving this old thread as I still have been unable to update the security patches from Google ie stuck on trying to install March 2016.

It's really really strange as each time I go online the March update is flagged up to be installed.

Can this be correct? Surely, Google stops the OTA links after a set time?

If anyone could provide me with some basic steps to undertake to get control of my phone back, it would be appreciated.

I'm still on stock 6.01 and have only the stock recovery options available to me.

Thanks for reading this post (again!).

BTW Why are the stock roms for sprout4 & 8 not listed here ??

Hi all So I want to buy Samsung Galaxy S7 edge SM-G935 im from AU so ill miss out on 4g plus which I dont really mind as I get this model for 288 dollars cheaper. Is it good to buy it? I heard china donst have google play store on phones? can someone help me out if you have Samsung Galaxy S7 edge SM-G935 if it has google play store or weird china apps? please let me know!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Ausboy 2011:
No updates will be horrible and if the modems different from the us you will have buckleys for custom roms

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Ausboy 2011:
Well just have a read up of the chinese models of the s6 the sell dirt cheap because very slow updates and no custom rom support.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] shadowrukia:
I dont care about custom roms. I dont use them. slow updates? how? and isnt samsung phones always slow with updates anyway?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] KuHaKu:
Depending on where you live, the modem may work well, or just be bad. For me in Australia, most Chinese models work well, but certain bands are missing so reception isn't as good.

(Speaking from using Xiaomi & Huawei; Never tested Samsung Chinese models anywhere out of China)

Also, Most signs of Google will be gone. Google doesn't work in China and subsequently, most (if not, all) Chinese Models of Phones are missing Gapps (Google Apps)

Others are minor (like boot logos) which i don't think most people will mind.

Hope this helped!

PLEASE TAKE TIME TO READ THIS. Thank you!

So I tried to Flash JDCTeam's Rom which is the Android 6 a.k.a Marshmallow. I cant install it because i cant flash TWRP. Odin, Standard recovery, idk. I just cant install it. I tried using the Terminal emu trick, i still didnt get the TWRP. I tried flashing a6 using safestrap, so i installed it but when i installed it, i cant open it, it doesnt go to recovery, just restarts. So, I tried to install Flashfire, Wipe, install zip OTA files, selected the Android 6 files after that, something popped up in my screen, " a software has been detected by AT&T..." you know what it looks like. So after that, i tried all my best tricks to open the screen. Is this brick? if yes, is it hard or soft? if no, whats happening to my device?.... So after that, i tried flashing files to open this, i used the something kernel ( i used odin flashing it ) so after that, my device suddenly opens, i thought its fixed, but when it turned on, the SAFESTRAP POPPED UP AND LOADS THE RECOVERY. Then, I restarted my phone, Clicked continue to continue bootloading, it suddenly go back to Samsung logo then goes to Standard Recovery. Then, i think that i failed doing this, so i tried Wipe dalvik wipe all wiped all many times, Flashed the JDCT Rom, it says " this rom is only for jfleatt, jflte... something something something...." then at the end it says " your device is " zerolte " i was like what the? my phone is atnt but what the hell is zerolte? its supposed to be jfleatt? right guys? then yeah, i downloaded stock roms still failed. anyone how to solve this?

I need to fix this ASAP. Thank you xda community. :)

Please tell us the model of your phone, current OS version, Firmware version, etc...

If your phone is AT&T S4 SGH-i337 and your bootaloder is neither MDB or MDL, then you have a locked bootloader as such you can not install the TWRP or JDCTeam's Rom.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] nukenine:
When data is left on Automatic, and 3G is 'live' an inbound call gets disconnected approx. 3 seconds after I pick up.

When I set data to GPRS (and phone to GSM), calls are no issue.

Had exactly the same with my TyTN (I).

I'm in Netherlands on KPN network; for those with technical insight: is this a network issue or phone issue - or combination?

Since I don't read anything about this in the forums, it's probably a local (NL) issue, but I'm guessing.

Comments very welcome.

Thanks....

Hi nuke nine,

I use T-Mobile NL, so I tested this for you :)

- Connected to 3G (have the 3G icon connected)

- Browsed to engadget.com

- Left the PIE open

- Call the Kaiser using my other phone

- Got call connected

- Tested by talking in both phones :)

- Left it connected for about 1 minute

- I pressed the RED PHONE button in the Kaiser to end the conversation

- Call disconnected

- Back to Kaiser, 3G is still on

- Clicked a link in the PIE, and it still works.

So, it could be your Kaiser problem ... or KPN :)

Hope this helps.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] nukenine:
- Same phone (TyTN II) but GSM/GPRS-only SIM, no issues

- TyTN I and 3G enabled SIM: same issue.

I need to understand what can be the reason that phone disconnects the inbound call after a couple of seconds when on 3G and not when on GPRS...

Anybody got any ideas?... Suggestions sooo welcome..
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Harry3GTech:
Same problem

Hi nuke nine,

I've got the same problem!

3G on and when caled the Kaiser stops the call in 1-2 seconds.

If called again immediatelly the cal goes through ok!

I guess there is something with the call management system within the Kaiser.

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Vcek:
Flash TWRP from fastboot and reinstall the custom rom.

If the problem happened after upgrading the MM firmware, then you should install a new MM custom rom.

Also when asking questions give more details about the device (and don't forget to remove IMEI and Serial No. before posting) you can get the details by running this command "fastboot getvar all"
