Thank you so much for this solution! Now I can hopefully see what's in this old archive (and toss it not worrying about losing something important) :)

I do have a question, I'm running this python script:

brokenzip files are being generated, but the script has now been running for 20 minutes. I've attached a screenshot of the console output.

I'm guessing I should just kill it at this point?
[Galaxy S6 General] nadejo:
In this thread you can share your experiences with the s6 and give reasons for buying a different phone.

got the feeling its about time to change.

Im simply tired of touchwiz and samsung not sharing any documentation of its exynos soc other than that s6 is a very nice designed device but the htc10 just seems to manifest my dreams.

bootloader can be unlocked

sd 820, 4gigs ram and sure it will be the first sd820 device running cyanogenmod soon.

only thing i will miss is the amoled screen thanks to samsung for locking bootloader of sd820 s7. i knew this would happen long before the bootloader rumors came out. they simply dont want people to make any custom modding on that soc so they dont loose exynos customers.

whats your next device you gonna buy or already own, and what is better and what is worse?

thanks
[Galaxy S6 General] HKSpeed:

[Galaxy S6 General] nezlobnyj:
next nexus.

had n4, n5, used n6p... nothing from those manufacturers mentioned comes close in terms of stability, customizability, integration with google. They do have some features I'd like to see in pure android natively, but those can be achieved with root (and since it's not voiding warranty there is no argument for me not to do it). Camera was an issue... till n6p, definitely not an issue anymore.
[Galaxy S6 General] episode96:
I'm staying with S6 until S8/S9. I happen to like modern Touchwiz so as long as Samsung keeps producing arguably the best hardware around I'll stick with them.
[Galaxy S6 General] FaserF:
Top smartphones at the moment (in my opinion!):

1st: Galaxy S7 (edge)

2nd: HTC10

3rd: Nexus 6P

Next phone I will maybe get will be pretty sure the Nexus 2016 (6 variant), if its a flop the Galaxy S8.

But I have to say with Samsungs new Good Lock UI I dont miss Android Vanilla that much anymore. Its pretty okay and in many ways even better than Android Vanilla.

[Galaxy S6 General] aaatoel:
I don't change my phone every year, so none of the ones available in the poll will be my next device. I will most likely even skip the next generation because I firmly believe that S6 will still be a good choice when S8 comes out and I want to keep it for a good 2 years. After that, who knows?
[Galaxy S6 General] Sensamic:
Next nexus phone, to get the latest updates fast and have a lot of development.

Or maybe Note 7 if battery life is impressive.

Also new Moto X is another option. Moto G4 also because of big battery, microSD and low price.

I'll wait for the next Nexus, I just can't stand TouchWiz
[Galaxy S6 General] 2skies:
I'm excited to see what the new Nexus devices are going to be. If the rumors are correct about the smaller version being an "upgrade" of the HTC A9, I think it will be a big hit and I would go for it if it's smaller (4.7"-5.1") with good features. I'm not sold at all on the rear fingerprint placement (long-time iPhone and Samsung user). If the new Nexus devices don't fit that bill, I will likely go to the S8 International variant. I see no reason to move to the current gen devices with the S6 in such a good place.

[Galaxy S6 General] sobitthen:
Buying used and going backwards to a G3

I have been unhappy with this S6 since it came out, coming from a LG G2, I had hoped for more...

Several reasons for my moving onward:

1.) The camera does not have the same focusing capabilities, no ability to tap on screen and choose what I want in focus for those closeups with something close or afar in view...

2.) Bluetooth issue, where if I put phone in shirt pocket and lean forward and put any pressure on phone, or if I cross my arms in front of me with an arm over the pocket, the Bluetooth is dropping off or becoming staticy..

3.) Using their VR... I bought one when it came out, read all the hype, tried it out, fully charged phone was getting low on battery after 15 minutes, plugged in charger and it overheated within 5, tried to use numerous times after, still 30 minutes max was all I could use the headset for. So much for watching movies with friends in some virtual reality room, or using it at all, as soon as you start to get hang of it and enjoy the features the device says overheating...

4.) Started to get picky on what USB cable I use to connect to computer for data transfer. If I use the HD 6' cable been using for years, it will connect/disconnect over n over, it worked on another computer so I thought my USB ports were failing on my computer, but if I wiggled the end entering phone, ever so slightly, it would connect, so a contact or port issue.

5.) My carrier, Cricket, their name will come and go and my connections will go from emergency to 5 bars, no clue if AT&T and Cricket are waring right now or not, but I did notice that my device wakes up when that happens and seemingly tied to some of the issues...

If I didn't have a dozen work apps on my phone I would do a master reset to see if it would cure some of these issues or not.

But currently this inability to transfer files whenever needed to another device for work makes this phone worthless to me, and shopping eBay for a used G3, and upgrade over my former phone, and feel I will be happy with returning to LG.

Now to RnR this Samsung phone and put her on eBay along with the VR headset that I used 2 times...

So in as much as I would rather progress to a newer phone with more features or faster processing power, an older used phone with a Squaretrade warranty is all I need...

[Galaxy S6 General] Sevennl:
I'll stay with the S6 for a few years as it does what it has to do and does this fast.

I will probably need to replace it when the battery won't charge anymore.
[Galaxy S6 General] tchsvy:
When I bought my S6, I bought it with an intention to keep it for at least couple of years, and in this 1 year or so, there have been few quite good mobile devices but none excited me. So I guess I will keep it for at least one more year. And thinking about the future, I guess modular mobiles are going to be a thing in the future, so among LG, Samsung, HTC and Motorola whichever offers the best of all including the mods will be my choice.

[Galaxy S6 General] royorbs3:
I'm an edge user and I fing love it. I had an s3 back whenext and was a huge fan. Still I think my next phone will be a nexus device. 1 I hear the s7 edge is locked down tight and probably that trend will continue and 2 similarly I'd like a phone that's a bit more open and closer to pure android if that makes sense.
[Galaxy S6 General] jr866gooner:
Perhaps the S7 for waterproofing unless the S8 comes with such a feature. I've got to wait now till Oct 2017 though lol
[Galaxy S6 General] serdel_elo:
Nexus for sure. I had Nexus 6 but i replaced it with s6 because Nexus was too big. Samsung is great with all the features and functions, I use tv remote everyday and multiwindow. But the smoothness and simplicity of stock Android is irreplaceable .
[Galaxy S6 General] Repulsa:
S2 /s3 / s4 / s5 /s6 / s7 .. hoping to try note 7 this time if it comes in europe :) .
[Galaxy S6 General] ipred:
I' ll stay with the S6 for a 2nd year. None of the smartphones released this year satisfies me.

In 2017-2018 i am hoping to buy a smartphone that will definitely have :

1) a 5-5.2 size screen exacty as the S6. I hate phablet sizes of 5.5 and more.

2) a super amoled 1440X2560 screen exactly as the S6. I ll never leave the super blacks of amoled technology.

3) a similar premium built quality to the S6.

4) a similar or better CPU to the S6 ( i am satisfied already with the 81000 benchmark )

5) a better camera in daylight shots ( none of the smartphones released in 2016 has a better camera in daylight shots that S6. The S7 is a little better only in low light shots and has a faster focus. I don't care about these as i care for noise levels and dynamic range in daylight shots. I also hate the 4:3 aspect ratio of the S7 )

So as you understand it's logical for me not to buy any smartphone this year. S7 is not a big upgrade for my criteria and the G5, HTC 10, Xperia X Performance, P9 don't have such good screen and camera as the S6.

Love my GS6. Best phone I've ever had. Amazing battery life and speed.. but I'm BORED OUT OF MY MIND WITH IT. Not a flashoholics phone. Next phone is probably the HTC 10. Camera might not be as good as the s7 but it's gotta be better than the s6. Also, I need some Cyanogenmod in my life.
[Galaxy S6 General] Soufiansky:

[Galaxy S6 General] Diaze:
you cant plug it in for 20-30 min to get extra 40 percent battery?

my phone lasts a day without problem..but when i need more power i use fast charging for 20-30 min and i gain a lot of battery

the phone is great..it lasts just as much as the new htc 10

[Galaxy S6 General] saj222:
I sold my S6 and got a Nexus 6P a few months ago. This is my first Nexus and wow it's a nice phone. The plus is getting monthly security patches. Recommend.
[Galaxy S6 General] lujki1:
When the Nexus launched I wanted to do the same, but time has passed and I never really did it. On the other hand, the S6 too recieves regular monthly patches. I'm on June one atm :)
[Galaxy S6 General] saj222:
That's cool. The problem with Canadian carriers (mine was Rogers at that time) is that getting monthly updates is impossible unless you have a Nexus. For example, stock Rogers S6 users were stuck on security update November 2015 until a couple of days ago when MM was released. Telus released their MM about 1.5 months ago but that's still horrible. And of course I think it was impossible to buy an S6 direct from Samsung in Canada even if you wanted to.

If you run a carrier supplied phone in Canada you better not care about monthly updates unless it's Nexus.
[Galaxy S6 General] lujki1:
Ugh...:( I bought mine from a carrier too. However they don't lock their phones, just resell them from Samsung as if you bought them straight from Samsung. But I have some more benefits from my carrier and that's why I bought it there.

And I'd probably purchase a Nexus if it didn't arrive 6 months later (as it does here in Montenegro). Knowing that I didn't want to wait and that's why I bought the S6. But I always loved the idea of stock Android.
[Galaxy S6 General] saj222:
Wow, good for you guys about being able to buy almost direct AND get updates. :)
[Galaxy S6 General] krucraft:

I am now having s6 double sim rooted with Knox not tripped.

I really don't know what to do.

If I have a s7 it doesn't have IR blast on it. So I feel like a downgrade.

There is no real way to root it without tripping Knox, and make finger print working.

I am not satisfied of my s6 either.

The stocking memory is limited.

The battery lasts for 4 hours

Its laggy

It burns in my bag

Unlocking the phone with my finger makes the screen turns off 80% of the time.

[Galaxy S6 General] ChuckWow550:
Will probably wait for the S8 Edge. Was tempted to get the S7 Edge but I can't financially justify getting a new phone every year, especially since I've been very happy with my S6 G920F. I'm not seeing any slowdown in speeds, and plenty fast for what I need it for. Only issue I've had is recently Clash of Clans crashes sometimes, but thats more of an app issue, Apple device users reporting same issues.
[Galaxy S6 General] Sensamic:
There aren't many options high end with similar size to the S6. Only S7 and maybe HTC 10. G5 screen has less brightness, so that's a no go.

Huawei phones are nice and cheaper. Moto Z has small battery. Not many other options.

Yeah I've looked at the keynote and it looks gorgeous. It is worth if you have the S6 or a Note 5 but not for those who already have the S7 Edge ;)

[Galaxy S6 General] LNJ:
Actually the iPhones do have fast charging. Just not with the supplied 1a charger. When you plug them into the 2.1a iPad charger, they charge a lot faster. For some packaging reason, Apple still uses the small 1a charger but to be honest, its small size is a convenience!

Still not as fast as Quick Charge 3.0 devices.

Hello to all ,

Im newbie on forum and android too. I was an iPhone user and i forced to buy an Android phone so that was m4 Aqua.

I made somethings which i didnt figure out how to solve. I hope you guys help me.

1. I rooted with tutorial on M4 General forum with flastool64, it was okay.

2.I Removed useless widgets and made my Aqua faster.

So problem is, I flashed two things.

* Loud mode sound boster

*Z5 Premium Graphic enchament.

-Stereo speakers working but so loud and after %70 volume, it stays same until reach %100

No Settings for Z5 Graphics and No Settings for dolby or something like that.

So how can i figure out this ? My model is E2303 8GB Model, Latest stock version Android 5.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] dani020110:
Don't flash that Loud mode sound booster, just use the xml one

I think your rom has to be deodexed to get the z5 stuff, you can use one of [MENTION=4838935]yash989[/MENTION] works to get the things you want

And you can reflash only your system using flashtool to remove what you've done wrong

ASUS Logo boot-loop (APX & Recovery work, yet no flashed ROM boots):Hopeless unbrick?

As title say, I can't get out the ASUS logo boot-loop limbo. Boots, flashes briefly, makes click sound, turns off... and again.

1) Tried flashing other ROMs: KatKiss5&6 give "symlink error", yet Revolver4 (RemovedApps version) flashed with clean log.

2) Still no ROM gets booted.

3) Tried EasyFlasher in APX mode: even tho the main log shouts success, the back-end (NvFlash.exe) freezes or quit on errors.

4) Tried to replace the recovery manually (install) or via EasyFlasher ... yet same TWRP (2.8.1.1) is still there.

5) Checked MicroSDCard for fs errors & bad sectors: clean.

6) Somebody mentioned some et2 or ext3 filesystem formatting... tried to play with it and got TWRP stuck!

I'm lost :eek: It seems like nothing I flash actually gets there, neither ROMS nor stock nor recoveries.

Weird facts & conjectures:

1) When going into recovery screen mentions "Android WW_epad user booloader released by WW_ epad9.2.1.27" --> Does this mean EasyFlasher once DID flash stock?

2) Recovery gives error: "Unable to open '/cache/recovery/.version'. --> Is it related to the unflasheable recovery?

3) t.b.a.
