[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
Yes you should be able to use adb pull to grab the data. What I meant was that'd only be necessary if your entire internal storage is about to be wiped, like prior to unlocking the bootloader.

And no, definitely don't dirty flash when changing ROMs, and definitely don't restore the /data portion of a nandroid backup on a different ROM. Both will cause major issues. What I meant about that was sometimes some of the data (your playlist for example) is not stored as a part of the app, but is instead stored in the internal storage. Because the internal storage itself isn't wiped during a wipe preceding a ROM flash (a clean flash involves wiping system, data, cache, dalvik cache) the playlist would still be present on your storage after flashing the new ROM.

Anyway, the whole point was in response to your comment about it being useful to frequent flashers, when in reality it (adb backup) is only really ever needed once (before your storage is wiped during the bootloader unlock). Sorry if I'm not making sense, I don't feel like I am haha.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danzano:
That makes sense almost got all the updated sdk tools now so will get to backing up then rooting just wanted to double check on the backing up because i have to nuke the internal storage when i unlock the bootloader

Unlocking bootloader.

Quick question regarding unlocking bootloader on 6p.

I understand that unlocking will trigger the software verification warning when starting the phone. If I return completely stock at a later date and re-lock the bootloader will the verification warning be disabled?

I'm not new to the rooting/flashing thing and have modified all of my previous Androids, but there are conflicting reports as to whether this is the case. A couple of videos on YouTube make it appear that the message is disabled after a return to stock.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
Yes, the message will disappear if the bootloader is relocked. That's the only way to remove it. Not sure if you need it but I have a detailed unlock/root/flash guide for our device here:

Does anyone have the stock Android 5.0 calculator from a real android phone like a Nexus? I can't stand Samsung yet am stuck with this phone as it is a work phone so I'm trying everything I can to remove the Samsung-ness from it. So far I've gotten things like the launcher, calender, clock, keyboard, mail, and plenty of other things disabled and replaced with Google versions however I've only been able to find the stock calculator from 5.1 and it won't install. So I'm hoping an Android 5.0 version will work.

Why not just flash a custom non-TouchWiz ROM like CM13?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herculeesjr:
Is that possible? I was under the impression from other research that I couldn't do that as it's a Verizon phone and has the very most recent OTA update. Heck if I could just root it I'd be happy, that way I can get rid of the volume limit and stop the home button from turning the screen on. I did try one root method (http://xdaforums.com/verizon-galaxy-s5/general/root-method-og5-ok3-t3290370) but it just put me in a bootloop so I undid everything and gave up for now.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
Ah if you've already updated to Lollipop, you're stuck I'm afraid, Bootloader is locked, if you'd stuck with KitKat, you could have rooted etc

I did read that the verizon bootloader had been unlocked, but that was a while back, and never heard anything else since

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nixpal:
Hello,

I need someone to help me make my phone work again.

here are all the steps I did before:

1- I downloaded HTC all in one kit

2- I unlocked my bootloader

3- I installed TWRP from HTC all in one kit

4- I downloaded this ROM : htc_m8_generic/da67a982c7dbf1dd45f8e34735eb591ac8d56b11.OTA_M8_UL_M60_STOCK_UI_MR_Google_WWE_5.07.1700.6-4.04.1700.10_release_454832.zip

first of all, when I booted to my current OS and I connect my phone to computer, the Internal storage not 16 GB anymore !! it's 10 GB and not a single folder inside, and I can't write anything there..!!

anyway I copied that ROM to my SD card and booted to TWRP recovery, I press Install and choose my zip file from my SD card and swipe to install ..I get this error:

mount: failed to mount /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata at /data: Device or resource busy unkown command

I wiped everything and now I can't boot to my OS it's not there..so I want to install the ROM I mentioned above.

Few doubts :

1- does it or doesn't matter to be rooted to install that ROM through TWRP ?

2- does it matter to be S-OFF ?

3- does it matter if the zip file on SD Card or internal storage ?

4- does it matter if I'm not using the last TWRP version ?

I need help correct me if I'm wrong..

I tried the Adoptable storage mod using ADB and everything went through fine with no errors during ADB.

The file size of internal storage is still 32GB reported through the phone's storage setting. It also shows my 64 GB SD card through the phone's storage as well.

SD card disappeared from the File Manager on the phone and does not show up on my PC when connecting the phone.

I filled up the 32 GB internal storage with apps and movies and I am unable to put anymore on. Pretty much indicating that the adoptable storage feature is not working.

I am in the process of factory resetting with the partitioned SD card to see if that fixes anything.

After you follow the steps to partition the SD Card, Go to Settings > Storage > SD Card > More (upper right corner). Then migrate files to the SD Card.

Once the migrate completes then I believe that the SD Card is properly made into adoptable storage.

New apps and data should now fill you your SD Card first, before using internal storage.

I also do not see the Migrate data option in (Storage-->internalSD-Card---> upper corner dots). On my Sprint S7 Edge it's Settings --> Device Maintenance --> Storage --> and the 3 dots only has Storage Settings. Once in there there isn't an option to migrate data.

Any idea what I can be doing wrong or does Nougat remove that Migrate option on the Sprint version.

Hi,

I have the newer model (2015) of the Amazon Fire. I am currently logged in using my sister's Amazon account. I live in an apartment building so other devices may be near by.

About a week ago, I got a message "invitation to connect" from a Samsung LED 32, for some reason I stupidly hit accept. Today I got the same thing from a 55" Samsung which I do not own. I have been using my Fire on a 59" Samsung which is connected by HDMI.

I am not sure what is causing this message, if someone is trying to hack my Fire from my apartment building or someone in my sister's family is just trying to add their device (which is not local so it can't be by bluetooth), But I think the message is someone trying to connect by bluetooth because if it was just someone adding a device it would not come through my device, I think.

Hi everyone,

I recently installed Remix on my laptop, and I'm loving it so far. I do have several issues though, mostly regarding my display.

In display settings, when I set the "Sleep" option to "Never", the screen goes very dim after about 15 seconds of inactivity. It doesn't brighten again when you tap the screen or type on the keyboard. The only way to brighten it again is to use the brightness keys to turn the brightness down, then turn it up again.

Also, when my computer goes to sleep, when I wake it up again, the screen is off and it is totally unresponsive, even though the power light is on. The only way to get it to respond is to force it to shut down, and then power it on again.

Any advice on how to fix either of these two problems would be greatly appreciated! :good:

Hey guys, i have question regarding the deepsleep issue that a lot of people have with the s6 edge + after root. I have searched the issue but i can't find any definitive answers (maybe that's just me?). All point to modded kernels.

I rooted my phone on 5.1.1 and immediately ran into the issue where the phone refuses to go into deepsleep. I only got half a day of battery life since then. I flashed back stock firmware with odin several times, but the the issue persisted. Since then only modified kernels have been my savior. Now on 6.0.1 i'm still having the same issue. I was hoping it was a firmware bug on 5.1.1. Obviously not. I read somewhere that it was tied to KNOX, but still no definitve answer. So my question is. Will i ever be able to get the phone back to stock and working like before root? If it is possible, how would i go about this? I will sell this phone in the near future, so i would like to sell it unmodified.

Thanks in advance guys.

I support this, as well. I made an uncharacteristically ignorant upgrade from an S5 to the S7 Edge (Sprint - Qualcomm) and hit a roadblock with rooting.

I signed the petition almost the day it was posted. But still no love. Its sad, knowing the one thing holding this device back from reaching its true potential is the stubborn nature of the manufacturer.

Facts & Rant: the biggest complaint about Apple is their communistic business practices. So why would Samsung start emulating Apple? First they stripped the S6 of the two flagship features that set their phones apart from Apple devices (thankfully they brought back the removable storage with the S7), and now the locked bootloader...? This is one reason I've never considered myself a fanboy of any one manufacturer...
