[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itsjoshwho:
I've been searching for the last 6-7 hours straight for an exact answer. I have read http://xdaforums.com/note-4/orig-development/bypass-lock-screen-pattern-password-pin-t2948336 a few times. I've Googled. I've YouTubed. Facebooked. All that.

I bought a refurbished AT&T Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910A) from eBay that was unlocked so I could use Straight Talk service. I believe it is using 4.4 KitKat but I could be completely wrong. I've had the phone for a year now. I never had to use the lock screen before until today. Reason is is because last time I didn't and I left it around co-workers, I ended up with a few unsightly photos from my 400lbs manager. Hahah. So today, I decided to use the pattern lock and put it on charge as I was outside for about an hour. I came in, was able to take the pattern off. But noticed my swipe option had been greyed. So I put the pin on (using only four numbers). For some reason, I thought it would enable the swipe option. I was obviously wrong. So I went to change it from the pin to the pattern and my pin became unrecognized/incorrect. Thought it was only because of the option settings. So I locked my screen. Obviously an extremely bad idea.

I now cannot get past my screen lock. I have tried getting into it with my computer through USB, it won't connect. Not even trying a Mini SD mounted (won't read on my computer). I have tried ADM, but apparently it has been **** for the "Lock" option for over a year now. I didn't register the phone with Samsung so "FindMyMobile" isn't working. The option to enter my Google account info doesn't show up; even after 35 attempts. No idea how to use ADB. Have read that Windows OS is pretty much impossible to use debugging. Especially with Win10. I have nothing backed up as I never expected/thought this would/could happen.

Of course, like nearly every other person, I just want to save the thousands of photos I have accumulated over the year of having my phone. At least before I have to do a factory reset.

I am a hardcore n00b at going so in depth with phones. So Layman's terms would be extremely appreciated. Or direct links would be great as well.

I believe I have covered as much information as I can think of. If any more info is needed to help figure out this issue, please ask. And thank you to all in advance!
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sanjaydev:
I am no expert in this matter, but I believe factory reset is one option but you will loose all your data.

(non-root method- safest)

1. Power off

2..Keep holding the power button +volume up+home button together to go into recovery

3. Use volume keys to navigate and select factory reset

4. reboot and you are done

Second option is to root your phone. This will trip knox and your warranty will be void if you still have it

(Root Method)

The method I use to root is :

1. Download TWRP recovery for your mobile(search for your device) from https://twrp.me/devices/samsunggalaxynote4qualcomm.html site and keep it ready on your system

2. dowload super su 2.71 beta and put that into your external sd card using card reader.

3 Put your phone on download mode(power off and restart by holding power button + vol down + home)

4. Open latest version of Odin and connect phone to system via usb cable. Now "COM" in odin should turn blue

5. select tar file in AP section. Make sure repartition and reboot is unchecked just before flashing

6. click start

7.It will run for a few min and say pass when complete.

8.now remove your battery and insert after a few seconds. reboot into recovery by using step 2 in non-root method and you should login to twrp recovery

9.click install button and select super user zip u placed in sd card. flash it (u may have to uncheck signature verification). Now you are rooted!

10. wipe cash and reboot again into recovery

11. download the zip from :http://xdaforums.com/note-4/orig-development/bypass-lock-screen-pattern-password-pin-t2948336 (Developed by Dr. Ketan)

12. Install this zip as you installed Super SU and you should be good to go.

There are so many links and step by step guides on how to root your device. You can choose your favorite. This is what I can think of and please don't hold me responsible if you damage or brick your device. Good luck!

Note : It would be better to keep super su and the zip from Dr. Ketan downloaded and moved to external SD card before you flash the recovery
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Psycho_666:
If it's the reactivation lock then Factory reset will NOT help, it will just make you lose the data and still keeps you locked out.

Only "fix" i know for this is through a service center.

You could try to use ADB to pull the data so you won't lose anything, but i'm not sure if that would work (maybe through the recovery)

Good luck though :good:

Just received an email from samsung, seems like they released the kernel source code:

http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=sub&sub=F&searchValue=G935FXXU1APD1
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Faspaiso:
It have been released for months.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] krogoth:
Compiled kernel is useless if not signed by Samsung certificate.

That's why we don't have any custom kernels yet.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Beefheart:
The fact custom kernels are not really needed on the S7 Edge Exynos in particular lessens the urgency as well.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Psyscope:
Not really, I would love to get a custom kernel from say Arter or even SkyHigh.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] strikerdj2011:
thats an opinion lol we do need a permissive kernel just no one can be arsed to make one lol
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Beefheart:
I'm curious as to why? There are absolutely no issues with battery life, or at least on the Exynos S7 Edge, the Snapdragon is irrelevant as it's locked down anyway. I'm getting between 6 and 7 hours SOT every charge, also there is no problem with with heat, so underclocking/undervolting is unimportant. And overclocking isn't needed on this beast, it runs like butter. On top of that Viper4Android no longer needs a permissive kernel to work as there is a flashable mod to overcome this.

I've used custom kernels for years and on my previous phones there was good reason for this. But not on the S7 Edge.

---------- Post added at 04:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:50 PM ----------

Yes, it's an opinion. But one based upon solid consideration rather than simply believing I want/need one for no real reason.

Also, it's not a case of people not being arsed. It's not possible at the moment, or difficult to the point of effectively being the same thing.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] lost_:
That's an opinion, not a fact.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Beefheart:
Until someone points out something this phone 'needs' that requires a custom kernel, it remains a fact for me, I was speaking from my perspective. But take it as an opinion if you prefer.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Faspaiso:
Speed, battery, d2t. Still opinions, whether you need it or not. I'm on the train 4 hours a day and is using my phone pretty heavy through out the day. I get around 5 hours sot and some games still lag on full brightness.

Also, if battery is fine, it can just get even better with a custom kernel. If I'm leaving and the morning and suddenly go to a friends home and then out drinking, I would love 10-15% more to get to the next day.

What is fine for you, others might love.

Personal insults. Classy.

---------- Post added at 10:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:18 PM ----------

I'm not against development. I'm simply commenting that I don't believe a custom kernel is necessary on this phone in a relevant thread to that subject. I didn't realise it would upset people so much that they would start p*****g their pants and throwing around pathetic, childish insults.

Hello!

I'm stuck with a huge problem. After hard reset, I can't sign in to any of my Google accounts which were previously used on my LG G4.

I try to sign in with my main Google account, but it still says that I should use another one.

This safety system is ret**ded.

I really need my phone back for my work and I have never occurred such a stupid problem in all 6 years of android experience.

How can I bypass it? Please, I really need help this time.

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bender_007:
1. Well thank you for contributing to our forum! Nice posts and really helpful

2. You have to login using the exactly account the phone asks you to.

3. Once set up just sign out from all of the accounts(the one the phone asks you to enter)

4. Reset the software

5. that should be fine now
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mėtinis Imberas:
Thanks for the answer, but the problem is - I've already made two resets in a row.. The first time, after the reset - I was asked to change my password for the main account. After the password change, I was not able to login with my main account. I logged in with another, which was added before. It worked. After that, I made another hard factory reset and now I can't do ****. It sounds stupid and it is stupid. I'm stuck in the "verifying your account" screen, my main account doesn't work.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bender_007:
Try logging in on computer(gmail) with the main account and see if it works. Maybe it's a temporary block

If it was that easy.. It's something else, a block for the device of some sort.

can you make a photo of the screen?

Also try flashing kdz -> refurbished (or cse) option so it wipes everything. Then try again. I had the same issue and was freaking out because I was going to sell the phone.

Sent you a pm with some infos
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK0087:
You must wait 24 hours prior to doing a factory reset after changing your password. Now you will have to wait 24 hours before you can log back into the account on the phone.

[MTCB Hardware Development] Lwysiwyg:
Hi there,

I know there is already some posts relating issues like that, but most of them are dead and without a clear answer.

I actually have a Joying JY-UQ130 (RK3188 headunit) with probably a NXP6624 radio tuner chipset. This HU is installed on a Honda Civic 9G (European model). This car have an amplified antenna which worked very well with OEM radio.

Since I installed my HU, radio signal / reception is not really good. Everything is correctly plugged : blue wire is connected with ANT-CONT (12V) and radio connector is on HU.

Without connecting blue wire, radio signal / reception is clearly worst, so I think everything is OK !

So, I tried like my others to add this ANT-208 amplifier :

http://www.ebay.fr/itm/ANT-208-Car-Inline-Antenna-Aerial-Radio-FM-Signal-Booster-Amplifier-Amp-UK-/111840168048?

Now, ANT-208 and default antenna car's together make radio signal / reception worst than without ANT-208.

Is this box just **** or maybe broken ? I have not red led to control if power is OK. I just plugged red wire on AMP-CONT, which is a 12V wire normally for audio amplifier (but I don't have it). I don't know where to get 12V if I don't use this wire.

Is there any other solution to increase radio signal / reception ? Maybe I can connect another comptable chipset tuner, which is better ? If yes, which compatible chipset would you recommand me ?

Hope this topic can help community to fix this recurrent radio problem !!

Thanks !
[MTCB Hardware Development] pa.ko:
Search other threads in general section and elsewhere. There are several discussions on this topic. No single solution as caused may be related to.particular unit or car situation.

I solved issue by putting additional antenna and joing with existing in car by using Y adapter. That way I got more signal to noise ratio. Just adding amplifiers is not changing SNR.
[MTCB Hardware Development] Lwysiwyg:
Sorry for the long time before answering ! Thanks for your answer !

I tried connecting GND of my wires to the car ground, but no improvement.

I tried famous ANT-208, but signal is now worst. I have removed it today, and will see if something is wrong in the ANT-208's box.

Adding another antenna ? Why not :) Do you know an internal antenna model that works great ? I don't want to have wires and antenna on board, so if I can hide this it would be great.
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
Has your car got an OEM antenna booster ? If so you probably just need a power injector.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] turtuv:
Hi guys, I usually lost about 3% overnight with 4G and power saving mode. But tonight a strange thing happened. For the first time, I got a huge battery drain. I leave the phone at 01:30 am with 25% and this morning I found it turned off. I think that is impossible to lose 25% over 7 hours, what could be happened? I would like to know if the fact that the battery has reached 0% and the phone shutted down can damage the battery.

I am a little bit worried since I read a lot about the fact that the battery never should reach 0% and the phone doesn't have to shutdown.

Inviato dal mio SM-G935F utilizzando Tapatalk
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] ZeroCGTI:
No it can't damage the battery. At least not if you charge it in the next few days. Here's the thing. The battery voltage should never reach under 2.5v. If this happen, the small chipset inside the battery will completely turn it off in order to prevent further loss of voltage. When this happens, the battery pins will be unresponsive, meaning that it can't provide electricity and can't get electricity either. It means you won't be able to charge it with your regular charger. At this point it's not even completely dead, but it would need some professional chargers to in order to revive it.

With that being said, your phone shuts down well before reaching 2.5v. Unless you leave the battery it at 0% for days (or probably weeks) you can still charge it and everything will be perfectly fine.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] turtuv:
First, thank you for the explanation, I don't know so much things about batteries, but I do know that there are a lot of legends out there. Usually I charge my phone when I reach 4/5% not less. Is that a bad beavhiour? About my topic, like I said this is the very first time that the battery completely discharge and the phone obviously shut itself down. When I woke up I putted the phone into charge immediately. I just hope that it's all ok, but I don't understand how it is possible to drain 25% of battery over 7 hours or less.

Inviato dal mio SM-G935F utilizzando Tapatalk
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] ZeroCGTI:
It doesn't really matter for Lithium-Ion batteries. It's not bad, but it's not good either. Use the way you like it. There's no harm in charging it to 100% every time you see it under 50%. There's no harm if you don't charge it from 0 to 70% either. It really doesn't matter. The worst thing that can potentially happen is to get some odd numbers for the remaining charge. Like having 80% and in just 2 minutes to have 76%. The capacity of the battery will be the same, it will last the same, only the indicator might be a little inaccurate. If you ever notice this, do a full cycle. Discharge it to 0% (let the phone shut-down), charge it to 100% and that's it. It will show accurate readings again.

But you don't have to do that constantly. Only if notice wrong readings. :)
