[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] rogerchew:
Coming from a Nexus 5 and 5x there was a setting under memory management that would allow me to see what apps were using up my RAM. How much system was using, apps, and free. Did AT&T remove this from our phones??? I can't seem to find it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] buradd:
Theres an app on your phone called usage manager which will tell you what apps are using how much memory... and then you can download CPU-Z from the app store to see a bit more in detail about available ram etc..surprisingly, you wont get much more than 1.6gb free ram at any given time with all apps closed.. better than 0 but i guess i expecter more free ram all the time
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] rogerchew:
found it....go to about devices, hit build number like 7 times (to enable developer options), then go into developer options and you'll find "running services" and that's where the RAM usage is located.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] rudyizcool:
Rogerchew, you are my hero! I was looking all over for this, as my S5 was just given the Marshmallow update. That option used to be the "usage manager" in Lollipop, yet it's all rearranged now lol. Thanks again!

As the title suggests, can anyone recommend a decent in car cradle/holder for the S7?

Thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] NilsP:
For the life of me I can't find the brand name but it expands in the cup holder has a flexible gooseneck and a holder that tilts at different angles. It is adjustable for most phones width. I found it on eBay a long time ago
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] RebDovid:
With my Note 4, I very happily used iMagnet. With my S7, it didn't occur to me that it doesn't go so well aesthetically with a clear-backed case like the Otterbox Symmetry Clear. I'll probably get an inexpensive case to keep and use in the car.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] Corwinder:
I use the I Magnet mount. Been using it for a few years in a few different vehicles. The only time I ever had a phone come off the mount was the day I hit a deer doing 65 and totaled my car. Thankfully the phone wasn't damaged. The biggest downside is if you use the adhesive to stick the metal plate to either your phone or a case then it's more or less not reusable on another phone or case. Glad I saw this thread as I just realized I needed to order more steel plates. These steel plates will interfere with NFC and wireless charging. So I end up either just putting a steel plate loosely between the phone and case and then take it out when I'm done. Another option is to have two cases. Mount a steel plate inside your second case and just switch cases as needed.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] RebDovid:
I tried just putting a plate between the S7 and my Otterbox Symmetry case. It wouldn't stay in place, making too scared to try driving with it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] Corwinder:
That's when you bite the bullet and remove the paper backing covering the adhesive and make it stick in place. To tell you the truth, I've never done that either. I've always used the adhesive thus my need to order more steel plates today.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] scott14719:
It would help if you would specify what function would you like it to serve....ie (wireless charging, magnetic, windshield mount, CD mount, vent mount (etc), one handed operation....

I use mine as a phone holder and dash cam. Wireless charging in the car is not important to me right now. Here is the combo that I currently use and it works well...

http://www.amazon.com/TomTom-GPS-Da...&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00

I use the base from the second link with the actual phone holder from the first link (universal ball joint) and have it suction cupped to to the item in the third link. It sits perfectly on my dash and works very well in my vehicle. It is secure, easy to put the phone in and out of, and provides me with easy access to the phone as well as all of the functions I wanted to accomplish with it.

Of course, you can just keep it simple and use the item in the first link and just suction cup it to the windshield...that's up to your needs and vehicle.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] mabros:
Hi, I have an XDA II running WM2003 (the last o2 original rom). With the official upgrading I am asked to perform an hard reset, put the pda on the cradle ad so on until update is done. I wish to upgrade to wm6 but before I would know if it is possible to use the same procedure to downgrade from wm6 to wm2003.

HOw colud I perform an upgrade from wm2003 to wm6? i read many treads but it seems they talk of upgrade from wm5 to wm6.

Anyone knows? Thanks in advance
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] Rudegar:
all upgrades are don in the same way

be it from 2003 to 2005 or 2005 to 2003

or 2006.........

same way

the flashtool just take the rom in the dir at put it on the pda
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] mabros:
So why is it suggested to do a full back up before an upgrade? Wouldn't it be sufficient to re-install the old rom using official upgrading program?

For example if I dont like a wm5 or wm6 rom isn't enough that I use the XDA_II_Upgrade_v_172181.exe to go back to wm2003?

In any case how can i do full backup/restore?

Thanks a lot
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] Ather:
The Term "MAKING FULL BACKUP" doesnt means to back up the whole rom..it means to backup you Whole DATA...(like contacts,appointments,notes,messages,e-mail,etc...)

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] mabros:
All ok for backup. What about downgrading? Can I use the official XDA_II_Upgrade_v_172181.exe to go back to wm2003?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] Rudegar:
not sure about exe file flash's as i always do the nbf path

but as i said then the himalayaflash tool dont care about what

rom is located in the dir it just flash it

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] mabros:

[Samsung Gear S2] porkchopexpress:
I just got a Gear S2 and I am loving it so far, however it appears that the S Health app is tracking steps from both devices along side one another. Normally I would just look at the gear steps, but I am using the Lifesum app in conjunction with S Health, when it pulls in the step data it shows the total from both devices. I have had the watch on me the exact same amount of time I have had my phone on me, S Health says according to my phone I have walked 1775 steps, and reports from the S2 that I have walked 2519 steps, but if I look at my steps in the Lifesum app I get a total of 4294 steps which is not correct.

Is there something obvious I am missing here? Is there a way to turn step tracking off on just the phone so I don't get this double total?
[Samsung Gear S2] dandiaz21:
I second this post! I just got the samsung galaxy s7 edge and the samsung gear s2. I see that they are two separate step counters. I wish whatever I saw on my phone was on my watch and vice versa. I don't like having them separate, and I see why they should be separate in case you either leave your phone or watch separately. But then there should be a way to sync the watch data to add onto the phone steps.
[Samsung Gear S2] gduren:
Having the same problem with the gear s2 and galaxy s6. When I choose the "all steps" view in s health, it shows the number of steps that get exported to other apps like Pacer (and ultimately myfitnesspal). This looks to be a combination of s2 steps and phone's built in pedometer. I've tested and gear s2 seems much more accurate, so I want to shutoff the phone's pedometer or at least have it export only gear s2 steps to outside apps. Went into s health settings and pedometer is locked on....will not let me turn it off.

Wish they would enable turning off phone's pedometer, not sure why they locked it on. Or give us the ability to control what is exported.
[Samsung Gear S2] badelie:
This thread is a little old, but I have a simple solution for your issue that's been around for a relatively long time.

Open the steps screen by tapping the step count graph on Samsung Health main tiles display. In the middle of the screen select Phone for the source of data, then open the menu from top right and tap on Pause. As simple as that, the phone pedometer will stop counting. Don't forget to put the step counter source back on All Devices and you're good to go.
[Samsung Gear S2] ahmoda:
Thanks a million
[Samsung Gear S2] badelie:
I've recently revisited this. With the latest Samsung Health app this is not a problem any more. The phone will cancel out any duplicate steps and add any that one of the devices didn't monitor.

So for example, Gear S2 9200 steps, phone 7450 steps, all devices 9320 steps (because I took my watch off for example)
[Samsung Gear S2] ahmoda:
So shall I revised the option and stop the (pause steps from phone?)

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dave852:
I have a UK purchased SIM free LG G4 H815 serial number starts 509. From what I've read boot loop will hit me, it's just a matter of time. Currently I'm on Lollipop with a rooted phone but locked bootloader so I still have a warranty AFAIK. However I'd like to move to Marshmallow for adoptable storage and it seems the only way to root Marshmallow is to unlock the bootloader and lose warranty.

I'm wondering if I can force the issue in order to get it fixed or get a newer phone that I could be reasonably certain would be defect free?

I think I'd like to keep with the viper based roms but i don't know how to update the firmware on the phone and then install the new rom. Any guidance would be greatly appriciated!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kiruhi:
I had the fabric format Android (4.2.2) and my friend helped me to upgrade to Cyanogenmod by using TWRP. It didn't work so we kept it in the lastest official 4.2.2 from Samsung. After a pair of days of working perfectly, I woke up and my phone was in the "Samsung" loading screen. I kept it for a couple of minutes and nothing happened, so I pulled out the battery and put it in again, same thing happened. Tried again, then it started normally and worked fine for a few seconds, until it froze, so I repeated the battery thing. Samsung loading screen a pair of times, then it loaded again, froze... And it kept doing that

Then I tried to format it with TWRP, but the OS was deleted too (guess I selected the wrong choice?) and it's not loading anymore.

Today I've been trying to re install the firmware via Odin with a friend, but it keeps failing at the system.img file and the error is not very descriptive...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] techsammy:
Recently I found a thread where a member could easily enable Marshmallow's adaptive storage feature which was hidden by Samsung. Good news is that you don't need to root your device for that. Just the knowledge of adb will do.

My concern is, that member has tried the method on his Snapdragon variant. So, is there anyone who has tried it with his Exynox device? I would like to know the success rates from you before trying it out myself.

P.S I don't think variants would matter much.

Where did you get this information? Show us here...

I think there's no other alternative methods unless Samsung releases an update, unhiding the feature.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] techsammy:
Good to know that it worked for you. I had a few questions though:

1. Is your device an Exynox variant?

2. How did you verify that it worked well? As per the article, the storage values shown by default will get messed up. So which file manager app did you try out for verifying the partition made?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] cantenna:
I have adaptive storage enabled since day one on my Exynox variant S7 Edge, it will work fine!

I should post too, based on my experience, enabling adaptive storage may reduce the cards lifespan to around 2 years.

Background, I own 5 Sandisk Micro SD cards (128 GB variant.)

The 1st one I purchased was from Amazon on May 2014 and that was purchased for exclusive use with my Galaxy S4, specifically for Foldermount (obb folder to sd) and Link2Sd (apk to sd, allocated a 10 gig partition for moving apps)

My Galaxy S4 retired August this year and and migrated that sd card to the S7 and adaptive storage it. Last night it died

(write protected)

Am I surprised I only got 2 years out of the card? Not really, using it in this manner will significantly increase the number of writes to the card. Will I still be using adaptive storage in the future? Absolutely!!:) I purchased the card for $120.00, so that means for me it cost $60.00 per year for the extra space:) I guess that isn't too bad!?

The other thing you may all want to consider, if you have an addiction flashing the latest and the greatest then you may want to steer clear of adaptive storage, each time you flash a new rom you have to re-partition and re-format the Micro SD twice, then restore your files, so with every rom upgrade, you may significantly wear your card. Something to think about...

Every movie, sports, other channels available on Skygo work fine.....except for sky news, and like you, I get that HDMI not supported message when I try to stream it. Also using a proxy to make it all work, but I'm not experiencing a channel wide HDMI 'not supported message' in the app like you're coming across. 5.1.0.47 is the latest app version of Skygo.
