So far so good but unless I can keep it up for an hour or more im still testing.

turns out this is touched on in the devs Q&A section.

the post is referencing a separate issue regarding a constant popup but dev says it fixes the disconnect problem

Q: I have Lollipop Sprint Device, the connection is dropped after a few minutes

disable your power saving if enabled

select in app settings "HostApd Survival"

uncheck "Sleep Mode" and disable Power Saving / Energy Saving on your device

disable this service "settings>mobile networks>connections optimizer"

Read this post in XDA Developers Forum: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=63250530&postcount=14

I have disabled power saving mode ...just in case

I cannot enable Host Apd Survival

there is no Sleep Mode option other than prevent standby

I have disabled the Connections Optimizer

also per that linked XDA post i have

Deleted the following:

/carrier/itson

/carrier/itson_enabled

/system/vendor/itson

/system/priv-app/<anything with "itson" in its name>

WIFI TETHER SETTINGS:

interface wlan0

method 2

prevent standby

thats it

so far so good I already hit the 5Gb data limit on the built in tether and this is still working. Data transmitting. Data receiving. Best of all it is staying on.

Be sure to reboot your device after you configure Wifi Tether as well as after deleting the files and or freezing apps.

I will update if something goes wrong.

Ultimately I believe the issue was a mixture between the itson files and the connection optimizer

Almost 2 months have passed and still going strong.....this method works

Click show content in the first message and that is the final solution. The stuff in red.
[Sprint LG G3] efd702:
where are you deleting those from
[Sprint LG G3] Spoonys.sl:
using a root browser.

Also mine just broke again after I updated supersu. Had to roll back the supersu app to get wifi tether router to work.

Looks like the CM recovery.. You have a chance of making CM work if you put whatever it is you are trying to flash into your internal storage and not to sdcard..

Please give some more info on what you are trying to do?

No brother.. in fastboot (not flashtool) use this command: fastboot flash system system.img

Press enter

Your phone should now reboot..

[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nefedroid:
Hello guys,

I have the note 5 n900c, and I am interested in rooting and installing custom packages.

Could anyone with some experience compile a quick guide on:

How to find the latest rooted stock firmware for Note 5

How do you keep the device updated when Samsung releases new firmware (or updates) ? do you have to wipe each time ? how do you backup if so?

I am just looking for a convenient way to root and keep the device up-to-date with all the minor fixes released by Samsung.

Thank you guys for helping.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willcor:
Hi,

Firstly search XDA Note5 forum and you will learn.!

There is threads/Guide, in General forum of Note5 and on other websites /forums.

Secondly, you state you" have a note 5 n900c "..?

You sure not a" N920C "model.?

Remember , if you root you cannot install OTA /updates from Samsung, (unless you unroot etc)

Even if you manage to download a OTA, you most likely will "brick" you device!

Otherwise, you have to flash current new updated Samsung Rom , everytime and root again.

Before you attempt to root...... you have to read alot and Google search to find the correct information. Also viewing YouTube videos helps.

I can deduct from your post, you still have a lot to learn about rooting.

Don't just root because it "cool"!

Remember, in effort to root, you can brick your device...!

trip Knox, plus other issues etc. maybe your device does not want to enter "sleep" mode, maybe warranty etc. Can't install "certain apps " because your device is rooted.

So after you searched and have read the Guides that is available, then decide what you want to do.?

Also note, that for some device /models, members do not have root.. yet.!

Its your device..!

good luck
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nefedroid:
Hi again, I installed a custom rom with boot .

Just a quick question , what should I update in addition to the rom to keep device up-to-date : Firmware,kernel,modem or bootloader ?

I read that the rom will come bundled with some of these and others u need to update manually .

Please advise.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willcor:
Hi,

Yes, if you flashed a good reliable custom Rom ,

the relevant dev of Rom most probably would keep updating "all." plus other handy mods and features. etc

He would also most probably specify this in relevant custom Rom thread (Normally , the first, second or third post.)

I would not worry to much about this. Just subscribe to that

thread, that you know of any issues or new versions

that is available.

Good luck

Hi all.

How can I assigne a ringtone to incoming SMS or MMS? Right now my kaiser does nothing when I receive a SMS/MMS. The amber led blinks and that's it..

I tried PhoneAlarm, but it seems I can't get it to work. I assigne a ringtone to new SMS, but when I receive one, it does nothing..

Is there another app to manage profiles, besides phonealarm (and free)?

Thanks!!

Hi there !

Let's me introduce Metal Detector with Sound App

Usage is very simple: Run the app on your smartphone and move it around. The value will increase and the device will vibrate and makes sounds announcing that ferromagnetic metal is near.

Main fetaures

* Magnetic field measure

* Min / Max

* Calibration

* Sound notification

* Chart view mode with componental representation of magnetic field

[IMG="Sound Meter App"]https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/UmKOr8dSpDotHgLlrvihnFs3aC0nJO4xy3fj2rmAA6L9mG9SU284McTFhM5l_LaM0Is=h900-rw[/IMG]

Note: ** Metal Detector apps require a magnetic sensor (magnetometer)

Recently bought the s7 edge from a guy was working fine for first week then all of a sudden couldn't make or receive phone calls or messages but could still use mobile data just not 4g took to Samsung to fix and couldn't and said has been blacklisted can't believe some knobhead would do that after spending £500 in an ideal world I'd be able to ring the ****ers neck!!!anyway I can fix this by unlocking and rooting or any other way any help would be great cheers
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] middleearth1010:
Blacklisted imei mate. Try swapping phones with someone overseas. There are websites that do it. If my phone wasn't trashed I'd offer to trade mine for a small fee.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] elpindian:
Yup, sounds like he reported it stolen or whoever he stole it from finally reported it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] MRDOCA:
Couldn't you just use someone's efs backup?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] russellcausier:
What ya mean someone else's backup mate?how would ya do it
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] J.Biden:
You're pretty much screwed unless your carrier whitelists your device again. Cloning or using a different IMEI won't make things better. It will in fact get you blacklisted again the minute your carrier sees that there are two identical IMEIs out there. IMEI numbers are unique, so if your carrier is cooperating with other national and international carriers, they will catch that IMEI and blacklist it again. But this time they won't only blacklist your device, but also the other one too, screwing another guy in the process. This is why you never ever reveal your IMEI online, and it's why reviewers on YouTube will hide the IMEI in the video.

Call your carrier and ask them why they blacklisted it. If they say it's a stolen phone, then tell them your story.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] MRDOCA:
What if you used a efs from another country. For example new Zealand? Also would a efs backup of a say... galaxy s4 work? If the person is never going to where ever you live in the world it would work wouldn't it?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] J.Biden:
That would work, unless your carrier is big. If it's a big one like T-Mobile, Telenor, Vodafone, China Mobile etc. they'll probably have a cooperation in place where they share IMEI stuff between each other. This way it's a lot harder for criminals to move stolen devices across borders. It also makes the lives of Chinese OEMs who clone IMEIs to make their own "fake" devices work, a lot harder.

But I wouldn't use another person's IMEI unless that person was aware of it first.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] MRDOCA:
So using a s4 or s5 efs backup would work on a gs7 variant?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] strikerdj2011:
theoretically yes but cloning and changing your imei i thought was banned on xda ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] MRDOCA:
I'm not changing MY imei I was just wondering if that would help fix this and/or the other guys with lost imei

That's a good idea I'll ring ee as if it's stolen why would I be ringing more then likely get nowhere though it's just wrong the guy had his own jewellery shop and was Stood with wife and kids thought I could trust him
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] melliwuk:
NEVER EVER EVER mess with your efs partition!!! Any tampering with that will end up with a 000000000000000 imei or the default one of 004999010640000 which is usually black listed cause its a defualt. That will make your phone unable to register on ANY network anywhere in the world...

There are safeguards built into the lowest levels of android to detect any efs tampering!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Ondalo:
Anyone know if it would work using a s5 imei which is no longer being used?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Thesweets:
Same thing happened to me!! Bought a S7 Edge and even checked the Imei before committing to the sale... The next day it wouldn't connect. I thought something was wrong with my Sim, got a new one and brought it into the carrier - they told me it must've been reported stolen and the carrier couldn't even help me find the original owner. So now I'm stuck with a phone I have no clue to do with.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] HumanXv2:
Motherboard swap....
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] EasyAndroidPro:
Do not mess with efs... like other users said it will just make things worse.. it's illegal for a reason.. otherwise I could call my provider now and claim stolen and get another phone sent and have 2 s7e for price of one if it was that easy...

never buy new phones from anywhere apart from official suppliers... not worth the discount.

Only fix is motherboard replacement with a clean IMEI

Or

Sell/swap overseas

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] ragazzodule:
Interested about that one too.... mine is s8 plus any solutions about the emai change ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] AllSmokeEm:
There might be a way. Check your countrt law about second markt buying. Example where I live and I would buy an s7 edge from someone who says it his but is stolen out of a truck and Samsung know wich items are stolen and blovk them. They cannot reclaim it from me not even the police aslong they dont suspect u are aware it was stolen. So i have to report it and show it to Samsung then they are forced to unblock it. Also in this case you have rightfull bought it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Eddiecho:
Let me help

Everybody here is chicken go to the website or get the app that lets you buy and sell and use your account lookup whatever phone model unblacklist IMEI or an IMEI fix there are companies out there that will do it online and have no problems the last one I had done was in S8 he'll do everything from iPhone to Samsung so with that being said if you can't guess what I'm saying is the web start site starts with an "e" and ends in "a y" just whatever you do don't send them in they will send you back crap keep your good motherboard put crap motherboard back in from China don't do it if they don't offer it in 20 minutes or less over the internet they're no good I haven't note 4 I had done a year-and-a-half ago it works perfect they changed the model numbers they change the IMEI number that went from 910w8 to a 910f series from a different contry

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] cac9478:
Went through hell this evening after factory resetting my phone to find out that I needed to use my previous Google login to get back in. I had just changed my password which triggered a 72 hour lockout so I was unable to get back into my phone. I got online and researched how to get around this, only to find that Samsung had patched all most of the methods.

After 5 hours of work I was finally able to break through the restriction and get back into my phone without having to use my Google login. I am currently working on a how-to with all of the files necessary to recover and will consider posting it.

I am not sure how many people out there may need this, but please let me know if you do.

[Update]

Just to be clear I spent hours trying to find a workaround to this issue and after being unsuccessful many times I finally found a method that worked. I really only know a small amount about flashing ROM's on phones so there are most likely steps that aren't necessary or easier ways of doing this workaround, but there was no way in hell I was going to re lock my phone to try again. And yes I know this technically isn't a "crack" more of a workaround, its just that it was 3am and I hadn't slept in almost 24hrs and I finally made it in, so I got a little excited.

Things you will need

Computer

OTG Cable

Flash Drive

Required Software

Odin 3

N920PSPTAO16

SM-N920P_OK3_BOOTLOADER.tar
