[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envious_Data:
It depends on weather you want to unlock your bootloader or not

I typically flash a Kernel with recovery then flash systemless root but you do require a unlocked bootloader to do it this way

You could downgrade to KK, use a root tool to install root and recovery then use recovery to upgrade to a pre-rooted MM
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snake218:
Afaik the only way for the moment, it's to downgrade to a previous version, then flash a MM pre rooted rom.

Hello mate i have an Xperia Z2 (D6503) with stock Marshmallow and an unlocked bootloader. I have been looking for a guide on flashing TWRP recovery for people in my situation and i'm not having any luck finding it. Can you please point me in the right direction? Thank you in advance!
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envious_Data:
it depends on what you are looking for.

unlocked bootloader or for locked bootloader?

How do you make a pre-rooted ROM?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envious_Data:
You can use a tool called PRFCreator, you will need a SuperSu zip and a FTF of your choice
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fireheart2008:
I tried to do that (downgrading to KK, rooting, dual recovery, making a flashable pre rooted MM) but ended up with bootloops. Tried to flash a stock however I, with difficulty, could only flash KK again. This time I used wirelessly downloaded all the software updates.

I think I will wait some time, till a better way exists.

There is a pre-rooted MM in the forum, I've tried earlier. But it is for D6503, not my d6502. It has a 3g fix, but in About Phone, it reads D6503. And root isn't working there as well. or perhaps I was doing something wrong.

I'm starting to think that MM isn't root-friendly
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nimalen87:
You will get the root soon for MM. This is why I hate Sony devices. Updates also comes late and rooting also comes late. Fed-up with this z2. Gonna go with Samsung :(
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ajax1337:
I don't understand the question mate. I said i already have an unlocked bootloader. Thank you in advance! Sorry for the late response

hehe thanks mate, but I have already rooted my Z2 with MM a week ago and isntalled xposed and a TWRP recovery ;)

I simply created a flashable zip from the 6.0.1 ftf and a supersu 4.61 beta ;)

you since you have a unlocked bootloader can now flash the "advanced Stock kernel" found in one of the dev sections, through that you can flash supersu

This thread for UK S7 users.

Please use this thread to discuss UK specific stories/issues/pricing/etc.

Samsung rolls out maintenance update for the Galaxy S7 edge in the UK today, which brings “shape correction for skewed photos” and stability improvements including better palm touch rejection.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] dave7802:
What network you on?

I am on EE, I have got this update notification, I manually downloaded the update and flashed via flash fire (to avoid wiping the device)

But I still keep getting the update notification.

Making me think the update I Downloaded was not the last version.

G935FXXU1APC8

Do you have a different number to this.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] methosivanhoe:
uk user here :D

Got mine through Carphone Warehouse, bought outright as i'd previously been with EE and got fed up with their lies about upgrading my phone... so after a week of dealing with them, i went 'sod it' and cancelled my EE contract, went out to Carphone Warehouse and bought the phone there.

Currently on a BT contract, 20gb data, unlimited text, unlimited calls, £20 a month for 24 months... perfect for me :D

Rooted and using TEKXnesis HYBRID Rom, and absolutely loving it

I already got this update Ratley in the week lady week via manual flashfire[emoji14]
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] dave7802:
So I updated the ROM to the latest version.

Still have the identify unsaved numbers!!!! Yay!!

I was able to test the touch responsive on the new update.

The way I tested, was hold the phone in your left hand normally.

And try and tap a icon in the top right corner.

The palm of my hand would touch the bottom left icon activating it.

Since the update, this touch appears to be ignored now. So a good update with a little less irritation.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] AMoosa:
The latest update has Samsung Pay pre installed
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] nord_musician:
is that the version you have? Did you flash it into your phone?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] AMoosa:
Yes I do. I downloaded it from SamMobile. The Samsung Pay app starts up with a little video introduction but it doesn't let you register any cards so it's not active server side yet. It's clear that it will be any day now though.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] nord_musician:
oh alright.

I got Samsung Pay semi-working on my G930F without flashing any rom. I couldn't access with fingerprint but with a PIN. Same as you, I can't add any cards, it says "failed to connect to server" right after I press the "next" button (the arrow). So I guess it's not even sending a ping to the server.

As a side note: the app in google play still appears not compatible and it doens't detect I have it installed. It's like if I have a whole different version.

UPDATE:

I "tapped" into SP's communication when sending the info of the card that I want to add and this is what it shows in both Samsung Pay and it's framework

It's a Samsung issue. I have the same problem on my S7E but Paypal works well with the fingerprint feature on my LG G5.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] nord_musician:
This is sillly. Samsung should release several firmwares for G930F and other variants according to carriers. For example a firmware with wifi calling and volte for tmobile US and Samsung Pay.

I think no matter if we have the app running or not. Their servers must be checking a combination of PDA and CSC and maybe more stuff and once the server realizes our phone doesn't match the criteria, it prevents the card registration. I don't know....

Android has always been about mods. We need leas root if they provide a wide enough customization and freedom for their (samsung) devices

Sorry to hear of your difficulties. My own frustrations have been building with Android as well. It is ridiculous how much we have to eff around with hidden settings and tweaks to get decent battery life. I am keeping an eye on the iPhone 7 to be honest.

Though apple ecosystem has its own share of frustrations.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] JovHok:
Thanks for the info. I too had experience of some backup apps not working as they intended to be. Even Titanium Backup had given me tension when new android version comes or sometimes for no reason. But my go to solution(even without root I believe) is always have been Tasker+AutoInput combo. When nothing works out I just program them both to install apps from PlayStore based on the app list I manually backed up with another app. That's it. Don't know whether that will cause any bad effect on device hardware. Does it?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sheryl John:
I agree as i mentioned in OP. Sad to see Snapdragon 820 users struggle with battery life by removing un-wanted system packages. This even exists to an extent in my unlocked DUOS version.

OH gosh. This is an important piece of information. Somebody should link to this info by posting an article in xda-developer.com . Is there any way to reuquest?

Thanks BTW for a warning
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] lost_:
1) Disable Internet connectivity (wifi, data)

2) Remove accounts, then

3) Factory reset

Google doesn't know that about the removal so app data is still in your account, yet the device no longer has any link to the Google account so it's safe against FRP.

That said, with multi devices (and household members sharing 1 common account as the base account), I don't back app data to Google at all. TiBu has its quirks but I've yet to lose anything with it. On the contrary, I probably have too much back up (who needs Gingerbread apps back ups??? yeah, I still have them LOL).
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sheryl John:
That's the only way it seems for hard reset. But as I mentioned in my OP there is no need of removing the Google account for soft reset. FRP won't be triggered.

I broke my phone and replaced like for like with a new Alcatel OneTouch Idol 3. I'm stumped as to why I can't grant access to apps to the SD card.

The phone is running lollipop, not rooted. The SD card is 128 GB, formatted exFAT, with a volume label (JE-SDCard).

I've already gone through a) complete factory reset and b) remove the card, reformat and try again. Neither worked.

I can access the card fine (add, delete, move) through the stock Filer app. Some apps (DroidTV) can access the card fine. But when I try to use SDMaid or Solid Explorer, the apps try to go through the grant access process, but when the OPEN FROM dialog comes up, it only shows two entries: RECENT and INTERNAL STORAGE, with no option to select the SD card. I have checked and unchecked the HIDE SD CARD/SHOW SD CARD options in the menu, with no affect.

I don't particularly want to root, as my banking app won't work on a rooted phone, but may have no other option. I've searched lots of online sources of Android help, and the only things I've seen to resolve this are to ensure the card is labelled (it is) and to check that SHOW SD CARD is enabled (it is). Anyone have any ideas?
