[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThumbDriveCorps:
Sprint Note 5 - Got the MSL code from Sprint CS (2 conversations)... Rooted phone from a thread on the forums...

You would think it I was pulling teeth out with how hard it was to get that dang MSL code from those tech guys... but I finally got it.

What can I do with the MSL code now that I have it..?

Why are there a lot of threads saying that I can SIM unlock my N5 with the code..? How is that done..?

-----

If you came here for how I got the MSL code... what did I tell Sprint CS tech guys... well, I'll tell you...

I called Sprint tech support and I told the guy on the other end that my mother was having trouble with the GPS staying locked onto her destination... Then I told him that no matter what we tried, the GPS would always change destination about a quarter ways into the trip...

He asked me a few questions... blah blah blah... I then told him that I tried downloading a few different GPS apps on my mothers phone to see if maybe it was the app that was messed up... and of course I told him these "other gps apps" were doing the same thing...

** The apps I said I "installed" were: Telenav, Waze, Scout, Google Maps **

I then said that I have updated every app on the phone... I even went so far as to go into the "Location" settings on the phone and toggle through them... he then asked me to download another GPS app to which I waited a minute and came back to him with... I don't want to try "another" gps app... I talked to another tech support guy the other day and we spent an hour trying to figure this out and then he told me... let's just reset the entire GPS programming on the device, go to your dialpad and dial this in: ##4772579# and it will ask you for a code, enter this code in: tell him you don't remember the code cause you didn't write it down... say the tech guy said it was some sort of "Master Sensor Locator" code (MSL - see the trick there?)...

Tell him that the guy was going to give you more codes to try, but you had to leave to go to work so you had to get off the phone and call back today and talk to someone else who could give you more codes to try...

Now, it seems simple, but you have to "sound" convincing and just take your time and at the end just tell the tech guy... come on, the other tech guy was helping me good the other day and was just trying to give me a few "Master Sensor Locator" codes to reset the GPS sensor or something in the phone, I don't see why you can't do this for me right now so we don't waste more time trying things that won't work, and so I don't have to drive all the way to a Sprint store in hopes of exchanging my device for another one, I really don't have the time or gas to be that, just help me with some "Master Sensor Locator" codes while we are on the phone taking care of this issue right now...

** I know it's called "Master Subsidy Lock" code... I was playing dumb like I had no clue what it was really called **

-----

Back to my main questions...

What can I do with the MSL code now that I have it..?

Why are there a lot of threads saying that I can SIM unlock my N5 with the code..? How is that done..?

It will say its updating the apps reboot and blank screen if i go to download mode it shows firmware update but nothing happens it stays at zero. Please help.
[T-Mobile LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netomel:
I think you got a few options since you are not bricked.

1. You can flash via lg bridge the KDZ for MM no root. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3356412

2. Via fast boot unlocked the boot loader and flash twrp and the rooted MM rom from Eliminater74, just make sure to follow the instruction to the letter, since a lot people have bricked their phones or end up in MM with no root. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3360240
[T-Mobile LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RZR-Rimon87:
Thanks for the reply, but for some reason my phone can't go to recovery or get recognized by my laptop as connected. It even goes to fastmode but nothing happens. I cant use adb or anything.
[T-Mobile LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netomel:
I think if you can do to fst boot mode your best chance it's option 2. If you follow the instructions of the link

You unlocked the bootloader, flash Twrp MM recovery, in recovery flash part 1 and 2, fast boot OEM unlocked again, reboot, load super su on the SD card, flash super su in recovery. Reboot.
[T-Mobile LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RZR-Rimon87:
So this is what i did to get to recovery somehow. backing up my data as we speak.

1. Pulled out battery, put it back in.

2. Held volume down button and power till LG logo comes on.

3. Release power for one second then held it again.

4. It asks me if i want to factory reset, select yes.

5. Boots into recovery.

will post more after backup is done.
[T-Mobile LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netomel:
Your situation is delicate because if the update went through you can not flash any LP rom because you will bricked.

Since you are able to get to recovery you should try a cm13 rom to get out of the boot loop or the rom I indicated before.
[T-Mobile LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RZR-Rimon87:
Thanks for all your help I tried the second method http://xdaforums.com/tmobile-lg-v10/development/rom-v10h901v20estock-customized-t3360240

Bootlop solved by magic :)

Hi. I got a rooted V10, H901.... I didn't install any update, no new software, just for no reason my phone went into bootloop, tried going in recover and hard reseting, everything failed. Then without hope i put it in freezer for 15 mins. Then when i switched ON it started loading the OS, after loading OS again restarted and went into loop mode. I pulled out the battery and left it in cupboard, Next day placed it in freezer for 30 mins and took out and forgot left it alone. In evening switched on and perfectly running till now. SO YES MAGIC :)

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NowWired:
According to the littel infos you are presenting here i give a very general advise.

Ask your company to give you the needed Data or at least the permission to grab it from your Phone.

Anything else is illegal and can get you into trouble.

well i have permission from boss just management can be a pain i got the info i need now and using safe mode to grab app data so when i get new phone should work
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] XxYoshxX:
Anyone else having the same problem?

Tested it out in my car, and there were huge noise/distortion clicks during quiet and busy song parts. So, went to use headphones (ATH M50) and experienced the same problems.

It started becoming apparent during the 3rd-4th volume rocker click to the left, so it's almost full blast.

I only use full volume during driving, and the headphones were a test on it (I'd go deaf in no time lol) but, the 10 should be able to handle it well on full volume correct?

I have owned the 6P, S7 and the M8...and all 3 never had this problem before.

Would it just be a software bug/or quality build?

One more thing out of topic (but I'm not too knowledgeable on it) is the yellowing bottom screen. I may have the yellowing screen, or it may be the screen protector (Spigen Crystal Clear) I'm using. How obvious/apparent is the screen uniformity?

I apologize for the long post, so Thank You in advanced if you have any findings!
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Heisenberg420:
Are you saying the 6P, S7 and m8 do not have this problem? Confused by your wording.

It might be your headphones. Btw full volume on most headphones is pretty bad for your hearing just a FYI. I use about 80-90% volume when I mow the lawn and dont get any static or distortion.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] XxYoshxX:
Ah, thanks for the quick proofread!

Yes, the 6P/S7/M8 did not have this problem for me.

As mentioned, I don't use full volume on the M50 headphones or any other earphones I use. I only used full volume on the M50's to specifically look for the noise/distortion at high volume outputs for a few seconds. And as with what happened to my car's audio jack, both produced the same results.

This hasn't happened with my previous devices, even the M8 or S7. So was just wondering if it has happened to you, or any other owner, as it would be difficult to repair/replace with how HTC is handling service atm.

Much appreciation for you input though, and for any other findings!
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Heisenberg420:
If you think it's a defect issue I'd definitely contact HTC.

Looking beyond the release of this phone HTC actually has excellent CS. I contacted them about an issue with my screen emitting a high pitched whining noise and they were very interested in the issue. Helped me out and even gave me a follow up call to make sure it was all fixed up. Remember they sold the phone through Digital River and most of the issues with shipping confusion was on their end.

Good luck
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] optionalmgrr.la:
Is that true?? Why?? :confused:
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] yeshwanthvshenoy:
Yes true that there is no compass but really you can't expect all the sensors and high end configs for a mid-ranger. It is a mid-ranger and it will have some cons. As far as I see it, maybe the NFC would be a drawback. I wouldn't really worry about the compass sensor. I don't think it would be useful very much. But its just my opinion, you may need it.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] optionalmgrr.la:
But compass is a fairly basic sensor......

Does it mean there will be no navigation support on G4 (Plus)?

Will the gyroscope help?
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] AbhishekS:
Yes, I am also just worried about navigation. Is it possible for Maps to direction based on Mobile Data/Wifi in the absence of magnetometer?
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] yeshwanthvshenoy:
I do believe the Gyro would be suffice. Even the G3 didn't have one and I think not many people complained of it. They were able to navigate without a Gyro too. I am not sure how the compass sensors work or how useful they would be but I don't care anyway lol :P :D
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] tzzeri:
The gyro won't help. However, the compass isn't necessary for navigation. The GPS is what you need, which can locate you wherever you are, so it can tell what way you're going. If you really need to know what way is north, South... and it's nighttime do you can't figure out from the sun, you'll need to open up maps, and start walking, and you'll see in what direction you're moving.

The g3 does have a compass.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] yeshwanthvshenoy:
I wasn't aware G3 had a compass. I know its a basic sensor but maybe Motorola thought it wasn't useful so ditched it.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] sirtbhopal:
For VR experience isn't required ?
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] optionalmgrr.la:
Is required gyroscope. Compass not a must my understanding.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] sirtbhopal:
1, g4plus have gyro. ?

2.SAR value ?

pl revert...
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] tzzeri:
Correct

According to gsmarena, yes. The g2 also had, but it was a horrible gyro that was clearly not tested. I couldn't find any info on the play and regular edition
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] henkholland:
I asked the compass question in motorola's Forum and this was Matt's answer:

No, it does not have a compass/magnetometer. It does have GPS but won't support a compass app.

That make's it a NONO for hiking because a low speed or standing stil at crossroads you definitely need this to show "the way" aka rotate the map or the guiding arrow (like in Locus Pro). GPS does this at speeds above maybe 6 km/h.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] amanjeet@msn.com:
as far as i know G3 does not have compass. i owned it ,
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] Jaocagomez:
it also doesnt have NFC
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] tzzeri:
I own it and it does have a compass
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] candiesdoodle:
There you go. Confirmed that it doesn't have the magnetic compass. Strange.. Why would Motorola do such a thing. Someone also replied on the other thread this could be the reason the phone doesn't support driving mode which was supported on g3!!!
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] tzzeri:
Why would they do such a thing? Because most people won't realise and won't care. That's why. I personally do care, but I'm the minority.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] optionalmgrr.la:
Yeah pretty sucks. Hope they release G4 Turbo like G3 and include a proper compass. but don't hold your heads up the chance is slim.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] nrp31:
Nope. Just tried out Google cardboard on my Moto G4 Plus and it works without any issues
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] tzzeri:
Of course. The only issue would be with the cardboard v1, where the button, which was two magnets that didn't even touch the screen, wouldn't work as the phone doesn't contain a magnetometer (aka digital compass). Though even many phones which do don't work because of the placement.

Looks like I could use some experienced help here. So I went to root using Odin3. I loaded up my file and everything seemed to go as expected. That is until it reset at the end. At that point it seemed to be stuck in a boot loop. I let it go for a while, but still just rebooting over and over (just Samsung splash screen). So at that point I double check things.

[Blu Pure XL] TheLastCanadian:
Not so much that I'm looking for assistance fixing this (though if there is some, by all means), rather, I'm curious to know: is this an issue anyone else has had?

Basically, it will happen randomly that the scanner doesn't work. It doesn't vibrate or anything - it's just dead, until I reboot. Screen on, off, direct prompt for fingerprint, doesn't matter.
[Blu Pure XL] Short Circuit:
I've had that come up about two times up until now. Really rare phenomenon, but it does happen. Really odd issue indeed. Secondary PIN entry doesn't prompt for fingerprint like it would do normally, and it doesn't show any fingerprints registered to the phone until a reboot, which magically fixes it. I haven't tried to record a new fingerprint during the problem.

Not sure if it might be related, but I'm still on whichever system update was the latest to be released before Feb. 19 because I'm too lazy to unroot, update, then root again.
[Blu Pure XL] TheLastCanadian:
I'm on the newer update - so it seems this is maybe some sort of software issue then?

I have to say this phone is really pushing me toward "damn, I wish I'd just gotten a oneplus or elephone" because of the small but somewhat glaring issues....
[Blu Pure XL] TheLastCanadian:
Sorry for the necro, but in case someone has similar issues: it seemed to be something buggy with using a universal qi charger. Now that I'm back on standard connections after a mishap with the qi, it seems to be much rarer.

Thank you in advance for your help and sorry for my English.

Although old, the following guide is mostly still relevant:

http://xdaforums.com/htc-one-m8/general/vomerguides-m8-bootldr-unlock-s-off-t2800727

But the TWRP link is outdated, and you will want the latest version TWRP 3.0: https://dl.twrp.me/m8/

You only need to do Section 1 of the guide, up to the point where custom recovery TWRP is installed. You don't need to root to install custom ROMs (you will have root by default after the custom ROM is installed, for most ROMs). Once TWRP is installed:

- Put the desired custom ROM on SD card, or download to phone's internal storage.

- Boot into TWRP

- Highly recommended to go to "Backup" section of TWRP, and back up the stock ROM

- Go to "Wipe" in TWRP, and do the default wipe (Dalvik, cache, user data)

- Go to "Install", find the desired ROM, and select it

- Sit back and let the ROM install, reboot and drink beer - You've just installed a custom ROM

Also note, you should backup any personal data you want to keep, before starting any of this.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] YasharF:
I don't think if there is a native wifi tethering fix anymore. However USB tethering seems to work (tested on G900A). Have you tried ClockworkMod Tether? You will need to install the a client on the PC as well as the APK on the phone.

Assuming the phone is not rooted, you might be out of luck at the moment. I'm guessing that you want to share your unlimited data plan. Have you looked at how much data you have used in the past few months? Just wondering if a different service provider might be a better choice in your case.

Really don't use that much data even though its unlimited. I have an aftermarket radio that I would like to use the phone's data. Works great with my "retired S4" but have since started using the S5.

You may want to consider looking into ProjectFi and getting a Nexus phone for the service, that is my plan for my next phone which includes tethering by design. When I did the math, it turned out that my bill will go down and the savings would pay for the Nexus phone. $20 for the line + a penny for each megabyte.
