[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3mel:
when you tried switching frequency bands in France, did you forget to put it back to how it was after it didn't work ?

2 networks in the same country can use different frequency bands so maybe google for those of your preferred network and set to them again.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cedrick001:
As I remember, i configured the phone to automatically select the correct band (EDGE/3G/4G/CDMA in auto-mode) to avoid any problem. The fact is now without functionnal sim card i'm unable to access "Mobile Network" option in the configuration menu... :(
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3mel:
no clue then, if you didn't change anything else I can't see why it shouldn't be working now
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cedrick001:
Oh yes i remember one thing ! I changed the modem for another version ! But since i tried to get back the correct modem but it's still doesn't work.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3mel:
lots of people put these errors down to hardware failure of the SIM tray and report things as working afterwards, but that should be your very last option.

you should try and reset the frequency bands e.g. 1900, 1800 etc so that they are correct for your region. failing that flash a multi CSC rom with odin

Hello Everyone! I am developing an 13.3 inch e-reader and my settings menu is very basic. I only have WIFI date and time, display, language and input, reset to default, and about.

I am missing critical functionality such as Accounts & sync Settings and Security. I am wondering if there are APK files out there that i can simply use ADB to manually install these missing items to system/apps/ on my device.

My specific version of Android is 4.0.4

any help would be great.

Hi there,

My phone currently is soft brick

i'm trying to install/flash Stock Rom 4.1.2 via Odin

and it's not working at all, i searched all over XDA Dev Forums and i thought it was the pit file issue so i got the pit for the SIII

and it does the following

<ID:0/003> Added!!

<ID:0/003> Odin v.3 engine (ID:3)..

<ID:0/003> SetupConnection..

<ID:0/003> Can't open the serial(COM) port.

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

I'm sure that my device is connected properly and i'm using the latest odin version 3.10.7 (used other versions though and didn't work either :( )

and i tried just flashing via odin and this is what happens:

<ID:0/003> Added!!

<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..

<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..

<OSM> Please wait..

Any Help please :(
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snkmv:
Use another cable or port, don't use usb hubs, make sure Kies is not running in task manager and drivers are properly installed.

Also why would you downgrade to 4.1.2...

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] ombadboy:
Hello,

I am looking to root and install Xposed on my S7E but was wondering what the situation with receiving updates will be.

I was contemplating using FlashFire and CF-Auto-Root but given that I'll be also installing Xposed, then that means FlashFire won't be able to take care of receiving OTA updates.

So if I root, flash TWRP and install Xposed, what would the steps be to update my device when these are released?

Also, what (should) happen/happens to dm-verity and forced encryption. As far as I understand these need to be disabled for TWRP to work?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] samteeee:
If you decide to root the only way to do "OTA updates" is flashing it manually.

I don't think there is any other alternative. I might be wrong though!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] liquidguru:
There's a thread about exactly this....

http://xdaforums.com/s7-edge/how-to/guide-easy-to-update-rooted-phone-t3342896
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] ombadboy:
Ah missed that! Great. So it seems you can flash the firmware using FlashFire and not lose XPOSED, etc. etc. I was wondering though, how does (if it does) FlashFire work with dm-verity and encryption? Is it only a TWRP requirement to have these disabled?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] liquidguru:
I believe so. I haven't rooted yet....keep thinking about it, but haven't quite got round to it. If I do, I'll do the CF-Auto for root then Flashfire for Xposed, but as my firmware doesn't appear on Sammobile yet, I'm keeping unrooted. I'm still a little undecided if rooting will affect me in any way, Gear VR region etc etc
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] ombadboy:
Join the club brother! I'm on the same boat.. Going back and forth between rooting or not (Losing Samsung Pay & OTA & Conscious of having a 0x0 KNOX vs Xposed (Snapprefs, GravityBox, XTouchWiz, etc.) & AdAway..
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] liquidguru:
Yeah. With the condensed DPI mode working without root, Adguard doing a really good job, excellent themes, I'm finding it hard to really need to root. The only thing I really miss is a silly thing, the Xposed module for adding the alt symbols on the Swype material theme keyboard.....
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] rmarcus:
Alt symbols for keyboard through xposed is not working, I have just flashed it a nothing appears.

Has anyone made it work?
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] stiffler191:
I have been a fan of battery life and smooth running phones for a long time now, more than I can remember. With a phone as good as the GS6 Edge+ I was surprised that there were so many hickups with it, namely:

1. Freezing when connecting to WiFi

2. Inconsistent Battery Life

3. Random Reboots

4. Random overheating.

5. HIGH Cell Standby usage

And a few others which are hardware related and will get fixed by Samsung next week, namely:

1. Oleophobic coating coming off in a circular shape in a specific spot

2. Frequest disconnections from data connection (never from charging)

3. Severely fast discharge from 100-98% and then to 90%

I wanted to help some people out there who are experiencing the same, so here I go.

1. Fresh Flash with Odin, full wipe, wipe partition. I am currently on G928FXXS2BPD2 XEU which insures the same CSC as firmware not the plagued Protugues (TPH) which you get with most other european firmwares.

2. When I say full flash I mean you will have to flash the Bootloader and Modem too, extract the tar file with Win-Rar and flash the sboot.bin for the bootloader (BL) and modem.bin for modem (AP)

3. Disable any items you don't need that are provided stock, just hold them pressed in the menu and drag them to disable at the top.

4. Disable Edge feeds and Edge lighting from the settings menu under Edge Screen, as this will literally never alow your phone to doze since it has to always keep the digitizer on.

5. Give your phone 4-5 days to stabilize it's battery, don't imagine you will get stable battery usage in this period.

THE Result:

1. No freezing

2. Buttery Smooth.

3. 3.7 hours screen on time before reaching 50% battery. Today I have 1.23 and am on 80% (remember I have a problem to 90%)

4. Normal Cell standby in same no signal conditions on the tube

5. No screen off battery drains

6. No overheating

Enjoy your new reliable phone! I have not used any package disabler etc, I am not even sure I would want to any more.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] b_d_b:
I have been flashing every firmware imaginable and have had the same software issues as you. Never tried flashing the Bootloader and Modem.

I have just done so and will come back when I test more. So far it does seem to connect to Wifi faster between tube stations which was a massive problem before.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] dengi_it:
Thanks for sharing this experience. How can we flash the Bootloader and Modem as well? Do we need to download them somewhere or is it just an option in Odin?

Thanks in advance for clarifying!
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] stiffler191:
No problem. You just open the tar file that you download from sammobile with winrar and extract sboot.bin and modem.bin as described in my second bulletpoint above. You can try flashing them with ough the rest of the firmware if you don't feel like wiping everything but I cannot guarantee the results.

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] ashes:
Hi

I'm using the TPH (portugal) version with the edge feed and lightning enabled.

After a full charge, I'm now with 1d4h9m uptime, 1h04m of SOT., and 28% remaining battery

Estimation is of 7h more.

Not bad, i think
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] stiffler191:
I am comparing the usage like for likw to my previous days which was the same as all the other days. I use 50% Wi-Fi and 50% 4G.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] stiffler191:
I think that if you switch off the edge feed and lightning your phone will start dozing and you will get much better stats than that. I had my phone on for 3 days in standby having forgotten it at work and with about 1.5 hours SOT I came back to find a surprising 40% left.

Someone please extract boot.img(kernel) from latest firmware. Thanks
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] voolandis:
Battery life is now amazing! I just pulled about 26hrs on single charge, with almost 3,5hrs SOT and I have 37% remaining power. No apps disabled, no power saving - just pure stock.

BUT, I did not flash sboot.bin and modem.bin. All I did is dirty flash existing firmware that was in the device already (same CSC region, build number, etc...) via Odin - no factory reset wiping (just cache via stock recovery, BEFORE reflash). All my data, settings and apps remained intact.

Before this there was no way to get more that 2,5hrs of SOT with entire battery life of about 14-16hrs.

Hi the firmware you suggested is G928FXXS2BPD2. Its for the 928F. Will it be of any harm if i flashed it to the 928C? I think the c and f are just regions.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] MoHuToP:
I'll suggest few other tips for battery saving - disabler wallpaper motion effect. It's use gyroscope for flow effect. Second one - if you do the use android device manager, just turn off; do the same with Find mobile. You will lost the ability to ring, lock, erase and files directly your device within your pc browser, but you will get better android os battery draining. Another one is S Health gimmick! It's sweet and cool, very accuracy about the hearth rate and pedometer. There must be a thread about the all running packages and their description. Best regards fellas
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] ariefabuzaky:
I know .. but i cant download whole firmware just extract boot.img..
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] stiffler191:
I would suggest flashing your own phones firmware. I believe you can use a pit file to cross flash firmwares if you really must however I wouldn't recommend it. I was just using the firmware as an example. Anyway you should flash F2 firmware which is the newest one at the moment and seems to be VERY good!

I experience Android OS battery draining in idle mode. The only thing that fixes it is to reboot the device and to wipe the cache partition. After 1 day the same thing happens again and again. Didnt have that before but lately my battery dies faster. I've used the phone for 3 days before. Now I can barely get 2. Something is happening but I dont know what exactly. Tried most of the things explained here. No luck. Android OS actually keeps the device awake and thats why the draining is. May be I can connect that with Viber or Messanger....

Other than that all remain stock, all my accounts are auto sync, 3 emails, fcb, viber whatsapp, insta etc.

Disabled some samsung apps like svoice, health, nfc, ms office etc.

So here is how I fixed my battery drain issue. It turned out that there is a bug in 6.0.1 that causes a part of the Android System to drain your battery - this is the Google Backup service.

And it's very simple - just turn it off from the Settings menu - Backup and Reset - Google account - Backup my data OFF.

Then restart your mobile and this is it. You should not have any other high battery drain from the Android System.
