[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ipsmaxes:
Hi,

Because I couldn't wait until the cos13 ota hit my area.

I downloaded the cos13 incremental update zip file (link from this thread) https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/cos-13-the-perfect-os-for-oneplus-one-i-love-it.441003/

I first confirmed that I was on the correct version for it to update (cos 12.1.1 YOG7DAS2K1)

Everything went well, it updated, but now the phone is stuck on the bootlogo really long, then starts optimising the apps reboots and does this again.

also the new bootlogo has this mod ready thing at the bottom now (not sure if that's normal)

I can still boot into the stock recovery and fastboot mode, but can't seem to acces the file system on my pc.

Any help on getting this thing working again would be great!

Thanks in advance

-Isaac

easiest way is to factory reset from recovery, if you can afford it.

First off it is stuck on boot animation, wipe data (factory reset) from recovery and you're good to go hopefully

For whatever reason...Cyanogen decided to make Google APP mandatory to run COS 13. If you remove the app or disable it you'll get a magnificiente bootloop. Maybe you removed Google App?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mathsjob:
Hi it my case too. And I did disable some anoying Google apps.

Any way to solve this issue ? Wipe data, partition and Media does nothing.

Is reflashing CM12 from ADB works ?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brath23:
I fixed the problem dirty flashing again the ROM but if you already wiped data and flashed again the ROM, you may have another different problem causing the bootloop.

Did you wipe media storage??

Do you have TWRP installed?? There is an option to ABD sideload a ROM

Yes I wiped data, cache(first try) and media after that (was not a good idzea)... I don't have anything special installed, only stock software
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brath23:
If you don't have TWRP recovery, you could try to fastboot this ROM: http://builds.cyngn.com/factory/bacon/cm-12.1-YOG7DAS2K1-bacon-signed-fastboot-bed37f2e18.zip

There are plenty of guides to do this, even some scripts to make the process kind of automatic.

Hey so yeah I already factory reset from recovery,

I didn't wipe my data yet because I still want to recover some files from the phone.

and yeah I did have almost every google app disabled (not removed).

after a factory reset these are normally activated again though? so idk what's up with that.

also does somebody know a way to retreive all files from the phone, through adb maybe? since I can't acces the file system on my pc rn

I'm gonna try to fastboot that rom you linked later (after I attempt to recover my files)

Once you disable wake up, keep awake, Google Now, location history and a lot of permissions more for Google App, Cyanogen OS 13 runs pretty good
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ipsmaxes:
It's kinda 'mean' that they force you to have these on. Once I have my phone up and running again on cos13 and I disable the google app it's just instantly going to bootloop once I reboot?

if so, I imagine alot more people are gonna have trouble with this
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tommy92tc:
Same here, and no way to dirty flash the rom to get out of bootloop, I had to wipe everything :(
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brath23:
Yes, it happened to me. Then I dirty flashed again the ROM, but I was having bootloop as well . I had to remove again Google APP from TWRP Explorer (I think it's called Velvet in /system/priv-app), reboot again in another bootloop and dirty flashed again the ROM. Lost a lot of time but I didn't want to lost /data and setup everything again.

Once you disable an APP is saved in some file in /data partition so simply dirty flashing ROM won't solve it.

---------- Post added at 05:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:53 PM ----------

I was able to fix it without wipe.

Steps to fix bootloop after disabling Google APP

Enter TWRP and remove /system/priv-app/Velvet folder in File Manager

Reboot system. It will go into bootloop again but at least it will remove Google APP from the list of disabled apps

Enter TWRP again and dirty flash ROM again.

Reboot and it should be ok
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tommy92tc:
Genius!!!!

Unfortunately it's too late, I already reinstalled all the apps and everything, now I have a clean system so I'll stay with that.

However it's a good way to restore, I'll remind it if anyone else will need it :)
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ipsmaxes:
I got it working again using this method. https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/guide-oneplus-one-flashing-fastboot-recovery.301131/

I did lose all my files but it doesn't seem like I needed to reflash the old rom.

the tool I used just told me it unlocked bootloader and wiped everything, then the phone rebooted and started loading cos13

oh well glad my phone functions again.

thanks a ton!
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Orphee:
Hi,

if you want to get rid of this google app... here is what I did :

install clean rom, need to install root, install Titanium Backup.

With titanium backup : Delete the app (not just freeze it, delete it)

Then wipe the data again in TWRP, you will have a clean boot without this google app...
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kryshnakishore:
Go to Apps>Configure Apps>Default Apps>Assist and voice input and change it to none

G app enabled or disabled make sure this should be none then it wnt bootloop

Damn, didn't see that the bootloader was updated and I generally never flash it. Anyway, I would like to report that the combination without the bootloader works just fine for now... Don't know if I should flash it now or wait for the next month's update.

EDIT: Flashed the new bootloader just now. Everything still fine! Didn't need to do anything else, recovery and root stayed.

I flashed the MMB29X build just the day before MOB30D came out. I was thinking whether to flash this or it's better to wait till next update comes.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] jc95:
I've reached the end of my patience with phones purchased from AT&T and their (lack of) upgrades. So I'm considering buying a new Samsung S& edge unlocked (SM-G935F) from an eBay seller. I have some questions about this process. I looked online but didn't find answers to my questions. If there's an online resource, feel free to redirect me.

Assumptions:

1) I'm satisfied with AT&T as a carrier.

2) Customer in good standing. No contract commitments.

3) I have as S6 with working AT&T nano-sim.

4) I'm fine purchasing for cash. I'm not interested in AT&T's Next plans.

Questions:

1) Do I simply move the sim to the new phone? Is any registration of the new phone/IMEI required with AT&T? Do I have to setup a new APN? Does call forwarding function the same?

2) Are there any features I lose vs. an AT&T branded phone? Samsung Pay? Any others?

3) AT&T uses LTE bands 2,4,5,17. So does the SM-G935F. So I should get the same LTE performance I would get with an AT&T branded phone, right?

4) How do I get system updates? With an AT&T branded phone, I get them OTA thru Settings>About Device>Software Update. How does this work with an unbranded phone when Samsung releases an update?

5) Do I get any support of the phone from AT&T or Samsung? No warranty, correct?

6) Are there any other pluses or minuses to this approach.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] archie87:
I will be going this route for the S7 as well. It's an expensive option but at least I won't have AT&T crapware and faster updates.

In my experience with previous unlocked phones, the SIM card can just be inserted into the new phone and it will automatically configure the data, mms, and voicemail settings.

Provided the phone you are purchasing supports the required LTE bands, there should be no difference in speed.

There will be no support from AT&T and the warranty is not valid within the U.S.

AFAIK Samsung Pay does not work on the international versions in the U.S. This is what will suck because I happen to like Samsung Pay.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] dandrumheller:
AFAIK, your understanding is correct on all your points. I have an unlocked US Cellular moto e that I use as an alternate to my S6, I swap my SIM back and forth with no issues, and there is no official ATT support for the version of moto e that I have, so I can't imagine you'd have any issues getting the phone up and running. You may have to manually enter your APN, but that info is widely available and it's easy to do. Not sure how updates would work.

Only other consideration is that the int'l version uses an Exynos processor rather than the Snapdragon in the ATT version. From the reviews I've seen, the exynos beats the snapdragon slightly in performance and battery life. It's likely going to make development of custom ROMs for the S7 considerably slower than if it were snapdragon based though. However, the locked bootloader on the ATT one will = zero development unless it gets unlocked (I'm guessing that's very unlikely). So this probably doesn't matter too much.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] troyboytn:
There will also be no Voice over LTE (HD voice ) on the international version should that be a priority for you
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] jc95:
VoLTE would be nice. Any idea when AT&T plans to make that available for non-iPhones?

How are software updates delivered?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] iceman4357:
VoLTE is available on certain phone already. S6 and others support it. Depends on your area, so you will have to check the map.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] troyboytn:
Yes but only on AT&T branded Android phones and iphones. The OP was speaking of an unbranded international version Galaxy S6 S7 which does not support volte
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] jc95:
I'm the OP. It appears that AT&T-branded S7's support VoLTE (HDVoice) as does (somewhat to my surprise) my S6, though I've never been aware of it based on any calls I've made or received. HDVoice appears to be available throughout my SF Bay Area. But, if I understand correctly, this would be a feature I would lose with an unbranded international phone (or, presumably, with an unlocked phone from, say, T-Mobile with an AT&T sim). Correct?

What about features that AT&T removed? Like download booster, simple sharing, and smart manager? These appear to be Samsung additions that were removed from AT&T-branded S6's. Would they be available on an unlocked, unbranded international version? (I'm not sure I would use these, but it's annoying to have them stripped by the carrier.)

And the remaining question that I haven't heard an answer to: how do I get upgrades? OTA (from who)? Download from somewhere & install with Smart Switch (or some other software)? Something Else?

Thanks for your help so far.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] justda:
If I remember correctly you can download updated ota just like you do now. It just comes from Samsung not at&t.

All the carrier bloat is gone, and all factory apps will be there because there is no one to strip it from the phone.

BUT

If you buy an unlocked t-mobile phone you will have to Odin the updates. I used a verizon s4 with t-mobile I had to manually update everything myself through XDA and odin.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] vision33r:
I sold my S6 Edge in December and swapped it with a Tmobile unlocked S6 Edge and what a good decision. Got my Marshmallow update this week and the phone felt new again. So much quicker and boosted my Antutu scores too.

8 year AT&T customer and I'm not coming back. LTE speeds and signal is great with Tmobile and unlimited video streaming.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Pig Vomit:
https://store.google.com/product/nexus_6p Starts at $449. Monthly updates. Easy rooting. Easy everything. Great phone.

Came back here to see if any progress made on S6 bootloader unlock and/or rooting (for a friend), and saw this.

Switched to a Nexus when the Nexus 5 came out. I will never, ever, buy a non-Nexus phone ever again. You should be in full control of whatever hardware you buy. Control should never be dictated by a carrier.

Just thought I'd toss in my own perspective (from a former original Galaxy S then S3 owner). Never had any issues at all with my Nexus 5 or 6P. If you have the money, you won't regret a 6P purchase.

If you don't have that kind of money, I think the 4th Gen Moto G (soon to be released, leaks everywhere this week) will probably be the strongest choice.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] archie87:
Except there's no Smart Stay or Samsung Pay, both features I use and rely on. I'd buy an unlocked Samsung before a a Nexus.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] dpw2atox:
I ordered a T-Mobile sim to test out the carrier where I live, I need to unlock my AT&T S6 Edge first but after that I plan on getting the new Nexus and selling my S6. I simply can't take AT&T's horrible service anymore.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] jc95:
I'm the OP and am back to report. I bought an S7E (G935F) on Amazon (from one of their Marketplace sellers), complete with Prime 2-day free shipping (& no tax). All works as expected:

1) dropping in my old AT&T SIM works fine. No need to call AT&T. No need to configure APNs. Voice calls, SMS, MMS, and LTE data all seem to work correctly. My LTE connection appeared to be on Band 2 in my area.

2) Of course, no AT&T crapware. Features deleted by AT&T are available (download booster, simple sharing, etc.) and work correctly. The Samsung-bundled Microsoft apps (and free 100GB OneDrive) are present.

3) OTA system software updates appear to be available, but there haven't been any.

4) Mine came with Arabic (?!) (and English) printed instructions but the phone sets up fine in English. The (apparently original, sealed) box included a European (Type-C) 2 pin power adapter (with a European-to-US adapter packed separately).

The only unexpected things I've encountered are:

1) changing the VoiceMail configuration. VM works (calls forward to VM as expected and I can retrieve VMs both by calling and using Visual VM app). The only thing I so far unable to do is CHANGE the VM configuration. I can't change the number I forward to (like Call Forward Always to another number, like a colleague). I get a Network Error message when loading the Phone/More Settings page or trying to set a new number. My wife has an AT&T LG G3 that has exactly the same problem. The HTC One M8 (where the S7E SIM came from) VM configuration worked correctly. But an AT&T Samsung S6 works correctly. I haven't found a way around this for any of the phones. I'm wondering if this is some kind of security provision (so that I can't "borrow" your SIM and change the call forwarding to re-route your incoming calls).

2) When I view my AT&T account online, the picture of the phone changed from it's previous model (HTC One M8) to Device Unknown. A minor detail, to be sure, but curious.

So, after a week, I would not hesitate to do this again in the future.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] troyboytn:
Glad It Worked out For you, I considered an unlocked model but don't want to loose HD Voice and wifi calling (once it arrives). I personally can hear an incredible differnce with HD voice enabled. couldnt care less about it, but video calling would also be lost with unlocked varient.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] jc95:
You are correct & I neglected to mention that HDVoice, WiFi Calling, and Video Calling are absent in the International version. It would be nice to have those, but not critical for me. Voice, in general, is less and less important for me. There is video call button in my dialer but it doesn't appear to do anything useful, at least that I've been able to uncover. I have HDVoice on my AT&T S6 and in the few instances that I've had a potential HDVoice call (to a friend's AT&T S7E), I frankly couldn't detect a noticeable difference. I don't know how to see an indication of whether a call is HDVoice or not.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] iceman4357:
On AT&T with an international version you typically loose the HDvoice, Wifi calling and video calling. I have seen people on Verizon with unlocked phones (Galaxy series, htc 10, 6P) that report you can use those features on their network. I think the ideal situation is to have an unlocked phone on Verizon at this point.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] jc95:
OP again with an update... Got a 2nd G935F for wife. Running G935FXXU1APD with AT&T SIM. Call forwarding worked fine on this one. (Not sure why it doesn't work on my other one.) Also, sideloaded Samsung Pay & Samsung Pay Framework from APK Mirror. Installed and works fine. So my list of things that don't work is just HD Voice, WiFi calling and Video calling.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] jc95:
OP again. I'm now more confused. I now have 2 unlocked S7 Edge (one G935F and one G935FD). Both unlocked. Both using AT&T sims. Identical software on both. On the FD, things work better than I was expecting: Samsung Pay works. I can add cards and use it to pay. I can also change the Call Forwarding settings (in particular CF All). But the 935F can't add a card to Samsung Pay (server connection error) and I can't change the CF settings. There are a number of online references complaining about server connection error and many seem related to device encryption (can't add cards to encrypted devices). I also have an S6 that's working with SPay and was encrypted with Lollipop. With Marshmallow, the Lock Screen settings have changed and it's no longer encrypt/decrypt device, only Require screen lock to decrypt data when device turned on. There doesn't seem to be an obvious way to decrypt a Marshmallow device. But even with this set, I can add cards to me S6 and S7E (FD), but not my S7E (F).

I suppose I should be grateful that SP works at all on one of my unlocked S7Es. But it's frustrating to have them behave differently.
[General Topics] Scionwest:
Hello everyone, I have been using Blogger.com for awhile now, and I am wanting to write blogs to it from my mobile device. I know I can send an SMS or email to Blogger.com and it will post the blogs, but I was hoping someone out there was aware of some blogging software that can be used to easily add hyperlinks, tags and images to the blog post. Unfortunatly you can only send a single image to Blogger.com and sending HTML links is rather difficult to type on the mobile device. I have tried to use PocketBlogger V1.3 and PocketBlog but they both error out with an exception handling error, probably due to Blogger updating the way the blogs are managed (I read something about that someplace).

Anyway, if anyone knows of any software I would greatly appreciate it!

Hi all,

Just to add to this thread the water left on my finger from my cold ice tea just killed my fingerprint reader.

Pick up glass

Drink

Put glass on table

Try to unlock phone

Phone start freaking at and vibrating like it's being pressed over and over

After messing around had to hard reset it by holding down power

Still goes on

Format cache and dalvik

Fingerprint reader no longer registered

So far I've tried:

Reset to Hydrogen Lollipop (was using Marshmellow at the time)

Reset to OxygenOs Lollipop

Upgrade to OxygenOS Marshmellow

Reset to default recovery

Hard reset the devide

Do *#808* test

Reboot with fingers on scanner

But so far nothing has helped and I will have to contact OnePlus and start a hard and long helpdesk ticket :rolleyes:

Same here! I had my phone on my pocket, I was riding on a bicycle, it was hot back then, so it was only natural that I was sweating.

When I returned home, I tried to unlock it, but it wasn't working anymore, along with whole home button.

I have enough of this phone and Oneplus in general.

****ty audio quality through headphones, really bad OS and drivers, this phones lags as hell even on custom kernel. Support is poor as well.

I sent it for a repair, thankfully I have my old Galaxy S3 LTE.

You know what? I installed marshmallow rom with agni kernel, and basically ALL SYSTEM ANIMATIONS are SO FLUID (I can see the 60fps rendering) !! On the 4 years old phone! Of course it's not even a half fast in opening apps, but everything is much more smooth. And audio quality through headphones jack is KILLING the op2 in every aspect.

I will sell my Op2 too when they will repair it.

I think I will buy a meizu pro 6,because really great specs and awesome audio chip.
