[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tech_heart1:
Hey Guys, My Zenfone 2 (Ze550ml) got soft bricked automatically after 3 days of rooting it. The Problem is not that 'I want to recover' the problem is that I rooted the device via a method displayed in the xda forum which is one-click root method.

The unbricking process is via ADB from cmd i did that but when i type " adb sideload <filename.zip>" and press enter then it shows

' error: Protocol Fault <no status>' So I tried to update the drivers and firmware and everything is up to date including drivers and all. But still it shows that, I don't know what to do now!! I consulted one of my friends he said that 'this because that while rooting none of the drivers were updated. ' So Now whats the solution for it. :confused:

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] NasTraDooMis:
Ive read elsewhere about the sd card keeps mounting and un-mounting, and its constantly doing it on my s7 edge and i keep having to redo what ringtones and notifications sounds i have assighned to various things like contacts and sms since i have them on the sd card. That sd card/sim card tray is very flimsy and needs to be "beefed" up, id consider it a manufacture defect. Anyway, My card is a PNY 128GB High Speed MicroSDXC and was working fine in my note 3. So, what i did is remove the sd card tray and use a piece of scotch tape and stick it on across the top of sd card and sim card and the top length of the frame of the card tray. Do not overlap the tape over the edges of the frame, trim it off with a razor or exacto knife. use tape wide enough to use only one piece as to not make it too thick or you may have issue with removing the tray. I used 2 pieces of tape and the tray goes in fairly tight, i haven't tried to remove the tray yet so i may have a bit of an issue removing, so just go with one piece of tape to start with and see if that resolves you're un-mounting issue. Mine has gone away since my fix with no more issue :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] MDaveUK:
Yeah I noticed its very easy for the micro SD card to slip a little bit out of its tray when its being pushed back into the phone, even if the tray is completely inside and flush with the case. I just make sure the phone and the tray and the sd card are completely level on a table when sliding it in, as gravity helps to align these things better then if the phone is upright in your hands while slotting it in. Jeez that sounds so dirty when I typed that.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] NasTraDooMis:
Well poop, hold the phone. My issue is back. It was fine last night and this morning and now this afternoon its back to doin its thang ! :(

I guess this pny card is not compatible. I just put in a kingston card and so far so good, we'll see how it goes.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] TJCacher:
Don't know if these anecdotal experiences are all that useful, but on my s7 edge, I could not reliably use a Samsung evo SD card (128gb), but my slightly slower Lexar 128gb card seems to work fine. Both cards are solid in a USB reader on a Windows PC, and also work reliably in my Droid Turbo 2.

if the bluetooth stack on the pda support PAN then yes

about the wifi option then if there is a wifi router it's easy

otherwise one have to make an adhoc network with the pc

and have the pc route adhoc wifi traffic to it's internet connection

it's really more of a general pc network thing then a pocketpc thing

as what needs to be don to make it work is the same thing as if the pda was a laptop or another pc

[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexounet2:
Hi,

I know there are many topics on the subject but I didn't find any solution to my problem.

So, since a couple weeks, about when I moved from Europe to the US, my phone drains significantly more battery than before. This has apparently nothing to do with screen brightness, wifi or cell data, since it occurs even in airplane mode during the night. I used to lose about 1-2% during a night, but now it's at least 15%.

You can find a couple screenshots from BetterBatteryStats there (sorry for broken link, it does not work otherwise): n.ethz.ch/~bauera/uploads/Screenshots/

So as I noticed, there are a couple wakelocks but nothing that could explain this large drain. Any idea what could be the reason and how to fix it?

FYI I am using the stock rom 23.4.A.1.232 with Android 5.1.1. Phone model is D5803. The OS was rooted directly when I got the phone in October 2015 and as I said, I did not have any battery problems until recently.

Thanks for your help!

Alex

that's the lollipop battery drain bug on mobile radio, marshmallow should have fix this
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexounet2:
Thank you for your reply. However are you sure of that? The bug you are mentioning is apparently linked with mobile data, which I haven't even turned on since a couple reboots at least. Moreover, the battery stats for the night (from the built-in battery menu) show that the mobile network was fully off during that time (airplane mode).
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Didgesteve:
I found this fix worked for me
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexounet2:
Thanks for the suggestion! Unfortunately it didn't work in my case, I still lose about 2%/h in airplane mode and screen off.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Didgesteve:
BBS - Better Battery Stats is your freind. There's also lots of tips in the thread on how to limit most of the common wakelocks.

There are several services in the new Play Services that are keeping your phone awake. With the introduction of wearable bluetooth there are new fitness services that are looking for your wearable devices constantly, disable them and your battery gets better. Obviously if you use fitness bands/trackers then this fix is not for you.

If you have a rooted phone download Disableservice from the playstore, it's a lot easier to use than Xprivacy and you don't need to install Xposed.

Once it's installed, open the system tab, open Google Play Services, then untick (disable) the following:

ConfigFetchService

FitnessSyncAdapterService

GoogleLocationManagerService

GoogleLocationService

NetworkLocationService

ProximitySettingInjectorService

UserPresenceService

WearableControlService

WearableService

WearableSyncService

then reboot your phone.

Disabling these from running should have no impact on your phone, it doesn't for me, and will give you 10-15% more battery life.

Solved Battery drain for Me

I was also suffering from the same battery drain issue, but after doing a lot of research on this forum, few tricks mentioned here worked for me.

It had been 6 days I bought the phone, so was very disappointed by battery life, did upgrade from PC to Lollipop, but still the problem persisted and even worse. So I decided to go back to Kitkat and followed steps here: http://xdaforums.com/z3-c...d5833-t2906706

After downgrade the battery got somewhat better not satisfactory, so I followed the trick of complete drain upto 0% and charge to 100% (switchded off) after reading posts: http://xdaforums.com/z3-c...5#post59797105 by Sydr08 #182

and cache clearing trick after 0% to 100% charge http://xdaforums.com/z3-c...harge-t3207737

After doing 100% charge I turned ON with vol+ pressed but phone did not respond (I guessed that it didn't worked, so switched ON normally) but after booting I found few settings to be reset so I guess it worked

So finally this trick seems to work for me, now the drain has slowed down to a lot extent. I have used phone regularly (calls, games, whatsapp, Music etc), the battery has dropped to 76% in around 8 hrs ( without stamina mode ) just expecting it to last for two days, and more than that with satmina mode.

Firmware: .77 (India)

Model: D5833
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexounet2:
Hi Aakm,

As you said, the tricks mentioned so far on this thread were not really effective, at least for me as well. I could live with that 25-30% left at the end of the day (it is still much better than my old Samsung GS2), but I would be glad to be back to the 2-3 days of moderate use as I had during my first months of ownership.

So I'll try this out over the next days and hopefully it will work, thanks for suggesting! It sounds a bit like magic to me but let's give it a try :)

Best regards,

Alex
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexounet2:
Unfortunately the full drain+charge did not change anything for me. I did not try to downgrade to Kitkat but as I've had good battery on Lollipop for several months, I doubt it would help.

Anyway thanks for your help, but I guess I'll simply wait until Android M comes out and take the opportunity for a full factory reset, hoping it will solve the issue.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] sevengroove:
I currently own a T-mo Galaxy S6 and am really disappointed with the lack of ROMs available for it. Part of the reason - based on my understanding so far - is that because the S6 has an Exynos chip, custom AOSP ROMs are not possible because Samsung hasn't released the source (or something like that :P). I'm considering getting an S7 Edge - since it's on a Qualcomm processor, can we reasonably expect to see AOSP-based custom ROMs for it? I would consider upgrading to an S7 if it meant access to a vanilla, touchWiz-free, marshmallow ROM.

So the question is 'when', and not 'if'? That's good news in itself! Follow-up question: Is there a lot of variation between the carrier versions of the S7 that would hinder cross-development?

Maybe you misread the OP - I meant the lack of ROMs for the t-mo s6, not s7.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] tiskewlio:
I believe the tmo varient has unlockable bootloaders which means easier dev support. But the international versions should reveieve the most support since tmo users are a minority compared to the rest of the globe. The Verizon version would probably be the worst.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] sevengroove:
Good point. Although it will be interesting to see what sort of dev support the non-US versions of the s7 will have since they are all on the exynos chip.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] Xileforce:
The tmo version will probably have more dev support than the rest of the world IMO. Of all the US carriers, they are the most open and almost always have the most support. Global has exynos so no aosp for them unless the code their hardware drivers from scratch(qcom provides these for us) the only thing I've noticed is that Samsung uses their own touch controller in the s7 unlike any phone before, which I don't think will be an issue, as that's probably just in the kernel which is open source anyways. Aside from that I think it's mostly just getting a device tree up and running to port aosp over which shouldn't be too difficult. Then again I've only ever compiled aosp on a Nexus so I may be wrong here.

This is why Google should have never canceled the GPE. Although instead of only selling phones which were expensive and no payment/contract plans offered.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] PDXMatt:
Hey have at it. I just don't want anyone getting their hopes up over an online petition. The odds are not your favour. Not to mention that the petition itself is terribly worded and hyperbole. 1,000s and 1,000s of people are not going to leave Samsung and/or T-Mobile. XDA is extremely small bubble of smartphone users. We get lost in this bubble and forget that most people don't care about a bootloader or even what it is. That's just being realistic. Knock yourself with change.org. The fact that John Legere is on board is your best bet. He can speak volumes more to Samsung than a petition can. Samsung isn't going to cave and cater to 1,400 people. Use your energy and keep hounding Legere.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] sputnik767:
I'm with PDXMatt. Those of us who care about unlockable bootloaders (or even know what that is) are such a small minority that neither Samsung not TMO will give a rat's behind about us. Seriously, if all of you guys leave for Nexus phones, it will neither put a dent in Samsung's bottom line, nor will it increase Google's. These petitions, are utterly useless. They aren't even worth the minuscule bandwidth it takes to sign it. TMO has roughly 50 million subscribers. Want to guess what percentage 2,500 signatures is of that number? I will not even bother with the petition.

Having said that, I am confident that root will happen, with or without a bootloader unlock.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] AKW:
We all know our chances are slim. No one is fooling themselves. That doesn't mean we shouldn't try. How many people play the lottery every day?

You guys are just repeating the same thing we've heard 100 times before. We know. The fact that we're a small community is news to exactly no one as is the fact that Tmo and Samsung stand to lose next to nothing either way.
