Hello folks.

I'd like to try the Remix OS on my Pixel C, but would like to be able to go back to Android if I don't like it. I have TWRP recovery installed. Can I just install all the image files but skip the recovery.img? Will this allow me to run TWRP and restore an Android backup? Or is there some dependency needed in the remix recovery?

Thanks for the help.

Remix OS on Google Pixel C

Have to admit, it does need better instructions, namely for setting up ADB Fastboot... something that was sorely missing. I had to install it, then open an command line prompt then change to that directory. Then run all the commands in the bat file that was included. After getting the ADB driver from Samsung working, it was a breeze but until then, it was a nightmare!

Right now I'm running Remix OS 3 for the Google Pixel C, it's android version 6.0.1 and it runs pretty good. I got tired of waiting for Nougat to roll out not to mention, Nougat doesn't support free form windows... something I love on my Samsung devices!!!! Oh one other thing, it does not have root support even though their videos claim that it does!

OK managed to snatch one of the only/few tilts available in my area last Friday and now, after a week of use I've noticed I hate the ATT case I bought: The leather, plastic clip, top-loading case, SUCKS!

I work in an ER so speed, quality, ease of use is paramount. My major problem with this case is that 1. I press buttons trying to pull it out and 2. the belt clip is not centered well so when I try to orient it horizontally on my scrubs the opening end tips downward toward the floor.

SO, I've been searching around the forums, looked at a TON of different cases. So far I like the look of this: http://www.pdair.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=10100000_900000_11000164&products_id=6562

BUT I don't like the plastic over the keyboard and how annoying is that flap when you're trying to talk on the phone? I don't want to be fiddling with a GD flap while talking. Does the flap flip all the way back on itself?

SO, I need a well-balanced, high quality plastic clip (quick releases are good), that does not have cumbersome flaps (or at least has flaps that fold back on the case/go away when used as a phone).

Thoughts?

Thanks

Does this case work for you?

http://www.boxwave.com/products/dlsleeve/htc-kaiser-designio-leather-sleeve_2642.htm

I received mine this week and am satisfied. There is no hole to access the reset button, but that's a minor issue.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] dweinstock:
It seems that you can't slide the keyboard out when using this case... am I mistaken?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] 3waygeek:
I don't know about the book-style case, but I have the PDAir flip case, which has the flap hinge at the bottom. On that case, the front flap folds back very nicely. The snap strap on the top that holds the front flap closed doesn't fold back so well, but I've only had the case 2 weeks so it'll probably loosen up a bit over time.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] skins07:
To slide the keyboard, you do need to unsnap the cover and fold it back. The phone can still be left in the case. I rarely use the keyboard, but this could be a major issue for those that do.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] h0mersimps0n:
Do you have any pics with your phone in it?

Have you had any problems with the belt clip screw coming loose?

I think I need something that protects the screen too... I'll have to think it over...

3WAYGEEK- thank you for the reply- that's exactly the info I was looking for, now I just need to find someone who has the side flap...

Thanks guys
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] skins07:
Sorry, I have no pictures. There are images without the phone on the Boxwave site.

There have not been any problems with the clip and screw.

I do use a screen protector, but this case does leave the screen open, a feature I was seeking.

[General Questions and Answers] ejaf:
Hi all, didn't know where to ask this, so I figured someone can point me in the right direction.

I'm running Internet Explorer (IE 11.0.30) at home, and since getting back from vacation a week ago, every time i try to get into the forums, the web browser fails to load. I'm running Win 7 Pro 32 bit.

Before someone asks me "why aren't you using a real browser?", I would like to know just what could be the cause of this. Some setting, or that ads coming down in the background are just bogging it down.

Any help appreciated, and if this is the wrong forum to ask, apologies in advance.

TIA...Eric

Hey guys

I have 5 Screens with widget apps etc. net to my home screen in the middle two left, two right. I am searching for a launcher (no root) which enables me to have them not only left and right, also up and down. so ich would only have to swipe once to reach every site. Am I explaining myself? Dow you know such an launcher?

Thank you

btw. I have Nova Premium. Didnt find it there
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Tewwyble:
Try lightning launcher.

I have customized it to do this but only problem is that it doesn't support unread notification icon.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] AndroiderM:
Damn that looks horrible, did you ever get the phone wet? I know it shouldn't have tried to charge if the moisture sensor was tripped. I'm just wondering if Samsung will honor the warranty if the moisture strips are tripped.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] edyfrances:
Wow...it was scared! I hope Samsung give you a solution ASAP!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] fantasist:
There were a few raining and stormy days, I was on holiday, but I always wiped it clean and dry. And that shouldn't really cause it to burn? I used Samsung s5 before and Xperia Z1, I even took them to shoot pics in the water, nothing like that happened. And, I don't understand, if there were water in the port, why would it charge to 100%, then got overheated and shutdown, then burn the port?

I'm sending it to Samsung now, I hope they have a good explanation.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] AndroiderM:
I doubt the water indicators are tripped then since the phone wasn't submerged. They should offer you a warranty replacement, sucks cause you'll lose you warranty on a brand new phone.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] fantasist:
update from Samsung is on the main post, can someone please help with next steps? what they said in there doesn't make sense to me.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] @soka:
Its bad, news dude.

They say, you tampered with your phone causing it to let in water therefore resulting in the phone being fried.

They are not going to cover you under warranty.

This is Bull in my opinion, sorry guy. :(
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] fantasist:
I can't believe they are really saying I tampered my £639 10 days old phone, so I can let water in and fry it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] dave7802:
Wow!!!

I would personally ask for a full report to why the device was "tampered with"

Because if the Device was Tampered with, and you claim to have not Tampered with it.

Then you can push the blaim onto the company you purchased the device from (Or your phone provider if on contract)

You need to know how and why the warranty is void, and its not a unreasonable request.

You can claim for security you want to know why the device was tampered with, and now are concerned about the security of the content that was on the device.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] @soka:
I doubt anyone would , i think they just getting out of this a bit to lightly.

Had a problem with a Sony device once, i made a big issue of it via my network and social media.

Hot it replaced, could be an option for you.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] fantasist:
I'm going to do that, any help is very much appreciated. I'm not letting Samsung to bully me like this.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] @soka:
That will definitely get their attention.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] dave7802:
If you are 100% you have not modified it.

Then a case of Bullying IMO.

So go down the route of being a very considered citizen about the content that was on your device.

They quoted Tampered with, Something you have not done.

So now this leave to question the security of the content that was on the device, Do you now need to go and change your passwords on your Banking, Change your Email account passwords?

Tamped with using as a loosely word like that is asking for a come back!

Example how and why it was tampered with, Was it hardware? has the device been opened up?

Have seals been broken?

Does that mean the security of the device was compromised?

Dont be rude, dont be nasty.

The people you are dealing with are following protocol, And there less likely to go that extra mile if your sharp with them.

(I work in a 3rd line Support, and apply this very logic, Rude to me, i wont help, Am here to serve and help so show some respect)

Try typing something up and post it here, am sure some people will help with the wording

(I am not your man, Dyslexia makes it look like a 10 year old wrote it)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] fantasist:
Thank you Dave, just got off the phone with Samsung technical support and product liaison team and they promised to send a full report by 5pm today.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] dave7802:
Win Win!

So with the report, Battle it out between Samsung and your Phone Provider.

You could also email them both with a CC in, so your having a 3 way conversation

(This will only work if you have a direct contact at Samsung)

if you are emailing the Ticket System i.e. Any engineer picks it up, you may have a harder time getting a resolution.

(Engineer 1. Goes for the Questions A -P So you expect the next stage to go from Q - Z

But the second email A different engineer picks up the email "Engineer 2" Goes through the same as what Engineer 1 does.

Having the 3way (Dont be rude) Would be best As you have Samsung saying Officially the device was tampered with.

Then you will have the phone provider denying all knowledge.

Then you ask nicely for both of them to come to a conclusion, Failing that you say that this needs escalating further.

With the recent news about security and accounts hacked.

And your Device being Tampered with Prior to you receiving it.

You demand some answers or this goes to the courts.

Courts = your last email, You structure this with the security and both company's denying any responsibility.

You need to step back and play them off one another.

Please do post the report if you dont mind, I am rather interested in this myself now.

Tampered with FFS!! Samsung!!!!! Tut Tut!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] fantasist:
will do, Im going to post it on some other forums as well to make people aware.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] AthiT789:
Anovo is the repair company?

I'm not surprised at all that they are trying to blame you, they constantly do this to customers that want to get their phone repaired even when it isn't their fault

Not sure if they still do this but they used to often refuse repairs saying the screen was cracked (repair was initially unrelated to any screen damage) and that it would cost the customer. When the customer would refuse to pay, they would return the phone unrepaired and there wouldn't be any cracks on the screen when the customer received it back.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] fantasist:
looking at their email, they said the speaker was melt. I'm 100% sure the speaker was working fine, it wasn't melt. I was able to use it after charging wirelessly.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] AthiT789:
I think you should ask for the phone back and then request to use a different repair company

Or you could go to carphone warehouse and talk to the 'geek squad'. I think they can officially do samsung repairs.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] fantasist:
I am now actually regretting to have agreed to send it in to repair.

Before sending it in, I bought 2 wireless chargers, 1 for on the move, 1 at home, I was planning to use the phone without a working charging port, because everything else worked quite well, there was no battery drain, I could easily reach a screen time of 8 hours or so. It was the Samsung customer service agent who convinced me to have it sent in, he was asking me whether it has caused any smoke, fire, was any valuables damaged, and he was asking me to help Samsung to identify the problem, so it wouldn't happen again. And that's why I agreed to send my phone in. Now they are turning it against me...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] AthiT789:
post about it on samsung uk facebook page, think that will help sway things in ur favour
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] riso123:
This sucks. Basically they will give you a warranty, but if they decided, they can say all issues with any phone was due to "tampering" and/or "water damage". They know there is no way you can prove otherwise and to take them to court over it would possibly cost thousands with no guarantee of winning... especially since they can falsify any information they like.

Bit underhand IMO.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] fantasist:
already did, I could only comment on their post though.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] fantasist:
I'm not giving up.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] fantasist:
They have failed to send me anything by 5pm, and now it's 6pm. I guess they are busy "working" on an appropriate report. I have noted down the names and departments of the people who have promised me to deliver this report to my email.

In the meantime, Samsung UK's twitter and facebook have asked my details and they are looking into it, I'll keep it updated here.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] AndroiderM:
That's a completely unsatisfactory response IMO. Out of all the units they have shipped and sold and the minimum expense it cost them to replace your unit under warranty it's just ridiculous that they will not just send you a new unit, refurb your old one and re sell it as a refurbished model. I wouldn't give up either. Blow up there social media with pictures and logs.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] riso123:
To be honest. Their replies on there are not in order and usually are no more than, "sorry to hear this. Please email xxx.xxx@xxx.com for more assistance.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] fantasist:
updated with Samsung's twitter reply which is useless... and they want me to call ANOVO for more info. What have I got myself into...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] riso123:
They make it sound very final don't they. Like "WE decided, so go fck yourself".

I would want proof and proof the damage was not caused in the repair shop. It just doesn't make logical sense that you would purposely do this to a brand new phone!

03/05 update from Samsung

Update from Samsung 03/05

Samsung infuriates me, called Samsung today to ask for a detailed report on why my 10 days phone was out of warranty. I was transferred to ANOVO, ANOVO told me it was a public liability case and they couldn't tell me anything, and they could only repair my phone once I paid their quoted price (£44.99 for a USB port, charger and a speaker), I paid for the repair since it wasn't that much compared to the phone's value. But I also wanted to chase to the bottom of this case. Therefore I was trasnferred back to samsung, they again told me only their engineers (ANOVO) could help me. After telling them I'm being put in a loop and half an hour of heart to heart conversation, he agreed to put me down on a sheet that his manager would call me within 24 hours. But he asked me again to call ANOVO and speak to a manager... And I was told there is nothing they could do even if I speak to the manager, their engineer's decision is final and I could only write to Samsung's HQ.

I NEED HELP PLEASE, I NEED HELP PLEASE, I NEED HELP PLEASE

Although I have paid the repair cost, I'm not willing to take the punch and let the big corporate get their way. All I wanted at this stage is to see tangible evidence backed by science that my phone was indeed water damaged and it was my own fault. Then I'll probably just ask them why their moisture sensor failed to work and I will probably end it there.

However, at the moment, they are just dictating on their customers and I DON'T LIKE IT. It's their word against mine and why they could tell me my £639 purchase was out of warranty after merely 10 days use. Can anyone with experience help me?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] fantasist:

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Cst79:
Samsung did the right thing. If they made the "water resistant" cake, they must now eat it, too. You can't boast in ads that the phone can be dropped in a sink full of water, and then refuse servicing because of "water damage"...it would be just too stupid.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] fantasist:
I have received the repair refund from ANOVO and I received the gear vr yesterday 21st May, the person did tell me gear vr was not easy to locate. I was told the replacement phone should be with me in the next day or so.

I would like to add that Samsung hasn't really changed their official attitude towards the supposed "water damage" issue. The reason I have got a replacement, a refund and a compensation was that they admitted they haven't handled my case well. (my case lasted for a month, and I was constantly lied to by ANOVO people, Samsung and ANOVO created a communication loop, so I couldn't get anywhere. even with official complaints with recorded delivery to 2 different addresses, they couldn't locate my complaints within 9 working days.)

Regarding the supposedly "water damage" issue, I'm still waiting for their internal investigation and hopefully they could give me some tangible evidence.

Although it's been resolved after a month. I think I am still at the losing end. The amount of time I spent in the past month to deal with this issue is far more valuable than the gear vr I have received as a compensation.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] greg_zielinski:
Mine fried too

Since this was the first thread that popped up I wanted to add that another s7 edge has fried it's charger port.

I plugged it into the supplied samsung charger and cable. A while later (30-90 minutes) I smelled burning. Went to the phone and it was coming from there. Picked up the phone and burned myself on the charger port.

Phone made it from 20% to 70% before it happened.

Phone has not been able to charge since. USB cable connector is burnt. The phone does charge wirelessly.

The phone was bought on release day so it's a little older. No tampering of any kind on the phone. I just plug it in and charge it. It was never dropped in the water or had water spilled on it.

Unfortunately I can't be bothered with the headaches of a warranty repair so I want straight to the damage plan with T-mobile and will be paying the $175 deductible. We won't know if Samsung will claim damage or evidence of water.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] AirHH:
Another S7 USB port burned away

I've made this small video about what has just happened to my S7:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GxeYSV8toXA

Basically I charged it overnight with the Samsung FastCharge Adapter as delivered. The S7 itself was not damaged as far as I know.

On the next morning the S7 was switched off, but indicating that it is fully charged. Restart was without problem. There was NO warning message regarding an overheating.

But I couldn't unplug it until I really pulled on the cable. And then I realized that the connection is melted away on both sides (phone and charger)... bad surprise!

After that the phone discharged within 3,5 hours. I monitored it all the time in a safe place. First of all I called my provider, because normally we receive new phones for defective ones on the next day. But in this case they forwarded me to Samsung. There they where of course a little bit nervous about it, but super-friendly and professional. A technician will come along and inspect/pick-up the phone. Let's see what they will say.
