[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] NBreunig3:
Yes. I am going to install all the updates. I'm thinking root is doubtful so might as well enjoy the updates. Plus if a root method did come up it will probably be for all currently versions or the current one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] jayb222:
Root doesn't look like it's coming and I like all the functionality so I won't be losing Samsung pay, VR use or using AOSP on it. I'm upgrading whenever there are fixes. The new PB5 update feels like my phone is running smoother so I'm happy.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] cadcamaro:
Root messes up the vr? Never knew that.

Anyway, I'm updating because it looks like I no longer tally need root. I can disable any annoying apps, and Samsung browser has an ad block add on. The only things I did on my V10 when I rooted it was fully uninstall useless apps and apply adaway to the hosts file. Apart from that I enjoy using the phone how it is, and I like Samsung pay so I don't think I'll be tripping Knox anytime soon like I used to.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] jayb222:
Root alone doesn't. Running a non-stock OS like AOSP would. There are third party apps for barebones VR though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] cadcamaro:
Makes more sense, and good to know. I do suppose that IF a root came out that worked with everything the way it is now I may do it just because. No way I would if it tripped Knox though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] Mac Cauley:
Would tripping Knox do more than voiding the warranty? How would I know if it was tripped?

Thanks!

Zip files and their permissions

The zipped bin folder has a single file. It should have 755 and 0 root 2000 shell

The zipped OdexerTool folder files should have 755 and 0 root 0 root.

Create the folder OdexerTool with 755 and 0 root 0 root as well.

The remaining zipped folder's files should have 644 and 0 root 0 root.

You will need to change face extension to zip or allow overide of detection by open as.

Will add more zipped folders... app, priv-app and lib in separate posts due to limitations on posting a reply.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] gooberdude:
Voice files for native languages.

The RAR files cover most of Europe, and outside countries, along with America, Canada, and Brazil.

Just find your local folder and set the permissions to have 755 and 0 root 0 root, and cut and paste into VODB. Inside the folder all files should be set to have 644 and 0 root 0 root permissions.

APP files for added features and patching.

Ok, I selected the best option for video... it has two looks. At and below a dpi setting of 197 it is white, and above it is dark. So most may like not being stuck one way or another.

Just set the permissions to 644 and 0 root 0 root, and cut in paste into the system app folder after removing video and other apps. That my not be over written.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] gooberdude:
LIBS for added 5 features and imaging

These are not required but are needed for using Studio and some S5 apps and or changing to another UI that supports S5 enhancements. There is more Stagefrieght capabilities as well.

You will need some of the apps and priv-apps to find the libs useful.

TWEAKS

Please note my attached build.prop is modified to use a tab 8.4 build and has a mix of system tweaks.

I have found a sweet spot with the Boeffla kernel utility... it gives great speed improvements without being tempermental.

Though, since I have been messing around with various system apk swaps... some small issues during tests were attibuted with the apk not playing well with the Gnabo ROM, not the kernel.

Since I have stablized my tweaking, the combination of ROM and kernel are stable enough to keep my tweaks permanent.

I set my governor to PegasusPlus with both internal and external memory to row. I use x633 64GB SD card, so slower speed types my need Bfq. I am able to get 2x to 4x the throughput with row row configuration. Noop performed the best for me, but was unstable under heavy loads, so I kept row as my safe optimal setting, running 256k for intenal cache and 2048k for my 64GB external memory.

CPU has been adjusted to 100mhz min to 1920mhz max with a -.025mv undervolt. I can run -.050mv undervolt but I find at heavy cpu usage it becomes unstable.

I set my GPU in a linear adjustment with the last 3 settings to push 700mhz with no undervolting.

Sound settings were minimal... only adjusted speaker gains to 60, as anything above caused distortion. Kept equalizer off and set mic gains to 31, with privacy mode enabled and DAC direct.

Display and LED, I turned off status and kept it disabled.

Misc 1, I set my power to 1800ma and ignore unstable power.

Tcp settings to LP.

Kernel delay is set to 0

Permissive, busybox and frandom set as enabled.

You will need to start busybox installer and remove installed busybox to run busybox from the kernel.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] gooberdude:
Samsung updates...

I usually don't bother with Samsung's gapps on updates, but I found that allowing quickconnect.apk to update made it worth while. I was familiar with Quick Connect when I used my personally modded stock 4.4.2 ROM with S3 UI and a bunch of S5 apps and libs, with a S2 Diamond ROM secsettings.apk. It was great but just felt too overly stretched to fit S5 apps proper. At the time I was happy but I could not tweak for best performance, as Boeffla Kernel was not available and stuck with Civato's kernel. I got use to Quick Connect being fully optioned, and it seems nobody had bothered using Quick Connect v1.6, so they would not know any different.

I tried a few tricks to get the update, and the best one was to use a stock untouched QuickConnect.apk, QuickConnect.odex, QuickConnectInteraction.apk and QuickConnectInteraction.odex. You will need to delete the data and remove them both before manually populating the files. Though the catch to making QuickConnect work is to only do QuickConnect files first and reboot, then do the QuickConnectInteraction files and reboot. Else QuickConnect will not work.

Oh another thing one must do... edit the system.db file and add QuickConnect in the list for it to show in the quick settings list.

The nice thing about the newer version of QuickConnect, is that it allows grouping your favorites on top of scanned devices, and you can relabel and assign images for personalization. The main reason I use QuickConnect is that I can eliminate two settings... Miracast and Bluetooth, and have other settings available without need to expand my quick settings list. QuickConnect also does a better job at mirracast functionality, as it disconnects without the bloody delay.

SFinder v1.100

After some more testings with various Sfinders... I found one that combines the S5 look and feel with tablet interface, and its speedy to boot.

Not sure if Samsung Content Agent helps, as it is an app I loaded in recently. Some SFinder apps use it and others don't.

I think my battery consumption has decreased since updating my Samsung apps. I get just about the same battery time with 4.4.2 as I do with my 4.2.2, which is a first. 11% per hour with miracasting while streaming is pretty good IMO.

If anyone is up to replacing their SFinder, here is v1.100

Can anyone link me to one of these bumpd images no idea what that means lol
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RapHaeL_4_4_4_:
Bump is for a bootloader unlock, not for a sim unlock. But you can find it here (ONLY USE WITH KITKAT).
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redduc900:
Just contact the carrier via their support site, open a chat session and request an unlock code. There's no charge, and you'll receive it during the session. You could also try the Mobile Device Unlock app if on T-Mobile...

https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-14011

Again, if on T-mobile these are the unlock requirements

Same problem

Hey guys, I'm having the same problem

I own a D855 phone bought at SFR (in France), I'm about to change of carrier but SFR made a mistake when they created my unlock code, so now they are contacting LG to have a new code, but it'll be too long... (up to 4 weeks)

I'm sure there might be a way to unlock a network without to have to pay, right ? Don't know, maybe a file to edit or replace or something like that ?

My carrier will be automatically changed in about 2 days, and I wont be able to use my carrier services network anymore in 2 days if my phone/network isn't unlocked.... So no more texts, no more calls, ...

I'm using Fulmics ROM & last Xceed kernel

Thanks :)
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigBen60:
UPDATE : I bought an unlock code on https://www.freeunlocks.com but they gave me the same code that my carrier gave me. This code doesn't work...

I really need help, any way to unlock my phone and use it with my new carrier please....
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JackYack13:
I have a GT-I9505 with this ROM and stock kernel. I noticed when I'm listening to music with the screen off the audio stutters sometimes when minimum CPU frequency is set to the lowest value of 384MHz. The stuttering is completely gone when I increase the min frequency to 594MHz in Kernel Adiutor. But from my understanding, increasing the minimum frequency may have a negative impact on battery life. Therefore I would like to only have it increase when I'm listening to music. Is it possible to control minimum CPU frequency in Tasker for example? Maybe I could create some profile which changes it when I open/close spotify or connect/disconnect headphones or something? Any ideas?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JackYack13:
Never mind, I figured it out myself :) Here's what I did if anyone else needs it:

1. Create 2 CPU profiles in Kernel Adiutor: one with 384MHz min freq, and another with 594MHz min freq.

2. In Tasker create 2 tasks and add action to each: Plugin > Kernel Adiutor, and select different profile in each.

3. Create a Tasker profile with State > Hardware > Headset plugged.

4. Assign the 2 tasks as Enter and Exit tasks.

Now I have no more audio stuttering and battery life remains unaffected when I'm not listening to music :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr Goodvibes:
I've used the Google Play app SetCPU successfully on a few Android phones with root access.

Just need to set up the given music app profile settings and you're good to go.

I mostly use a powersave governor when the screen is off, which tends to cover most bases.

Can someone post the stock recovery for p8 lite?

I (like other) need the stock recovery beacause I installed TWRP recovery and now I can't istall OTA updates.

Please help :(
[P8lite General] daviddosa:
I've got a stock recovery, for you. Click HERE.

Use this line of commandline command to flash back the original recovery:

fastboot flash recovery P8_Lite_Root_Recovery.img

Make sure, that the downloaded file is in the same folder where you opened up your command line, otherwise give it a full path.

And also, use the proper post type to post something, that way, you dont confuse us ;)
[P8lite General] ItalianWolf:
For your reference: download full update, then extract recovery using huawei extractor
[P8lite General] daviddosa:
Yep, he can do that as well, it'll work, that's how I got this recovery too, but the downloadspeeds are so bad, for me at least. It starts up fine, but after a few seconds it drops to about 150Kbps, which is way too long for me.

Anyways, the link is there, feel free to use it ;)

Im currently on B188 with 5.0.1 can someone help a helpless noob like me? All i wanted is to update to 560 and then 564 so i can do the dumb gyroscope virtual card thingy so i can see a freakin pokemon through my camera...yes i am that desperate for just that... :/ now i am stuck with no recovery.

My tests

Hello, superdragonpt! First of all, thanks for your dedication on our device are my tests on this ROM. I suppose you only are interested in non-working functions and other issues. So, let's go:

Top apps than does not work properly: Facebook app (exits after login screen), Skype (same issue), Page Manager app (ramdon hangs), Aliexpress (does not open login screen), Asphalt 8 (loading screen and then exits with android process error). And still testing others. OK, webview update fixed it. Sorry :P

Automatic timezone by using network is wrong. I am in Spain (PEPEPHONE cell company - GMT+2) and it says China GMT+8.

Magnetic cover sensor does not work (or maybe CM ROM does not support it, I don't know, but RC does it).

Weather section on toolbar and cLock widget does not work.

Camera driver (photos and videos) looks like better than RC (or just I am suggested by the change). Anyway, quality level is still frustrating because of blurry pixel definition and scary postprocesing.

Compass has better accuracy than RC ROM, but still unaccurate (now looks like excess of effect when moving).

Missing MTK Engineer apk (please!) and fast charge feature.

I hope you find this list useful to improve CM ROM and make the best ROM over all :D . THANK YOU A LOT!

is there any help for this?
[JiaYu S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] xWris3:
Most of the time this issue is due to a faulty battery. I haven't tested with the CM rom but I've an original battery (the one that came with the phone) which has a problem with the voltage circuit Inside of it. It results in 20 % drops. With a new one from Jiayu.de store that I ordered about a month ago, no problems at all. But again I'm speaking on RC5, don't really know about CM but I assume it's the same.
