Finally I succeed in installing a non standard recovery and in getting root permission.

I don't know if someone is still interested in such device, but here is the material you need.

In the enclosed zip you'll find:

recovery.img: it's a PhiltZ touch recovery (based on CWM), the only one I got working because it uses the phisical buttons of the phone. In this device the touch is not working in recovery mode. I tested all the main functions (wipe, install, backup e restore), and they are all working, the minor ones are untested. This recovery reads and writes only from internal storage (not from the external SD). To install it, you need "SP Flash Tool", which can be downloaded from Mediacom site, in the relative device page.

MTK_AllInOne_DA.bin e MT6735M_Android_scatter.txt: are the "download-Agent" and the "Scatter loading file" you have to use in SP Flash Tool to flash the recovery. The scatter file is already setted to flash only the recovery, not other parts of the firmware. Be sure, before flashing, that only recovery item is checked in the Download page of SP Flash Tool, with the proper recovery path in "Location".

BETA-SuperSU-v2.52.zip: it's the zip archive to get root permission. Install it via recovery, after you have tested that the recovery is working for you.

recoveryORG.img: it's the original recovery, for restoring purposes. Install it (if you need to restore your phone to the original state) with SP Flash Tool, in the same way.

N.B.: Of course, I do not take any responsabilities about brick or problems may occur to your phone after using this material. . If you decide to use it, you do at your risk, aware that this type of changes always involves a minimum of risk if something goes wrong.

Herewith enclosed the archive:

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] labpedro:
Hi everyone, I am drawing to the end of my contract with Three, and currently have an LG G3. I have noticed that they now offer the LG G5 as an upgrade option, so i am torn between the G4 and the G5. I have had a problem with the G3 that required LG to have the phone for about 2 months to fix, which has left e with a bit of a bitter taste. Since its came back it has been ok, so i wondered what peoples thoughts were regarding the G4 or G5. I question how long the G5 will last if you are constantly plugging and unplugging the modules in the bottom (ooer) so any advice would be great, cheers
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SergioA:
As a satisfied G4 owner, I'm not considering an upgrade to the G5, it's not that giant leap forward...

In my opinion all depends on how much are you going to spend for the G5 over the G4: if it's a small amount, go for the latest, otherwise stay with the G4 and you'll be happy with it ;)

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alecore:
As g4 owner ,i don't think switching to g5 is an upgrade because of few reasons:

1.the button from switching modules it wont last longer than few months (we all know what is going to happend with buttons like this)

2.camera still the same (wide angle camera is not a necesity ,at least not for me)

3.battery still the same

I will be waiting for lg g6.

I'm not disappointed at all with my g4,great photos (manual mode is a beast) ,great display,great speed and battery life depends in how you use the phone .
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] labpedro:
cheers chaps
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andycohui:
unless you wanna use those additional modules, i would rather stick with G4.

Get a samsung s6 or s7 is more more more better
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SergioA:
Don't agree for S6, maybe S7 ;)

Inviato dal mio LG-H815 utilizzando Tapatalk
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alecore:
nah. G4 still beats s7 ,even at camera.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NightOrchid:
Agreed.. also, the current G4s are coming out with S/N: 600+ (my new UK unbranded one is SN 620), so the bootlooping issue should be solved... and, best of all, your G4 contract will be MUCH cheaper than a G5 one.

Its a great device...

You might regret doing that... Inferior camera, No SDCard (on s6) and worst of all... childish and cartoony TouchWiz, where you get loads of duplicate.. S apps and google apps.. for example.. S Voice and Googler Voice, S Note or Google Docs or Microsoft Word., Google Drive or Microsoft OneDrive... thats apart from all the "S" apps ... yes its all on the S6 and its all bloat to deal with...

Worst of all Samsung are now becoming the Apple of the Android world, where their devices are alot more expensive than other Android phones

Go for the G4
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] partylikeaninjastar:
If you can handle a larger phone, get the V10. It's everything you'd love about the G4 in a more durable body and with a larger screen. I held one in store and it felt great. Made me regret my launch day G4 purchase.

I wouldn't even consider the G5.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snakecharmed:
I agree. LG completely lost me with the G5, not that I would have considered a new phone by choice this year anyway.

I also wouldn't recommend the G4 due to its bootloop problems, and having a new one doesn't really guarantee you a thing since people have reported 604s having bootloops as well.

The V10 has been out long enough to presumably not be plagued with the same type of issues, and you would also hope that LG didn't somehow manage to screw the pooch for all of 2015, because then that would mean that they released three flagship duds in a row over the past year.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RohanM:
I would have upgraded to G5 only for the fingerprint sensor, it's a good to have feature.

i just had a few questions...it says to use lg up to install...does anyone know if you can use the lg flash tool?

also i thought i read in another thread that using the mm kdz would lead to an unlockable bootloader...anyone know if that is correct or will i still be able to unlock it?

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ChumleyEX:
First I'm sorry if there is something out there to help me with this that I over looked, but after weeks of going through several forums for various issues I am going to ask for help.

I've put PocketSNES 2.00 on my tilt along with a few roms. The roms are on the Tilt and PocketSNES is on my storage card. (I've tried to put it on the phone but when I run it I get, "the file POCKETSNES cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of it's components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring the file")

I've also installed tgetfile.ppc.arm.cab which I read somewhere that it was needed.

Well when I open the app then load the rom it takes its time to open. When it opens it runs extremely choppy. I would say it refreshs the screen every 20 to 30 seconds. I've fiddled with every setting I can, yet still super slow performance.

What am I doing wrong?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] fusi:
running it from a storage card i guess

there is something floating about on how to disable that security thing that will prolly let you install it on the main memory and that might just fix your issue
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] little_rock:
I cannot get the GBA emmy to run properly either - rather the buttons don't seem to do jack ****.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] JDSX:
You can use SK Tools to get rid of that message or just find it in the registry yourself.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] BoostedSR20:
Ive been playing with nops pocket snes for the last few days with similar results. Very choppy, pretty much unplayable. One thing to remember is that you cant use the screen for controller buttons. Whenever you touch and hold it slows down to almost a stop. I use the keyboard for buttons.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ChumleyEX:
I found it in the registry but it was already disabled. I'm pretty sure it was

hklm/security/certmod/allowuntrustedapps set to 1

There was another mention of changing 000101a in another folder but it was set to 1 as well.

Are you sure this SKTools will work on the Kaiser/Tilt. I tried it and it said that it was disabled. Lastly I found that the kaisertweak app had the option set to disable the error. Grrr
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] BoostedSR20:
I just tried running it and the roms from main storage, still no good.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jaygriggs:
snes

I have pocket snes it runs perfect with no sound also have pocketnester(nes) pocketgnuboy(gameboy) and they all work perfect and you can sound working great too except on the snes. I have them all on my card 4gb sandisk and the roms are on the card as well. I have the tytn 2 stock rom with your basic tweaks. took them off my wizards memory card and just continued to play where I left off. also have pocketgba but its far from perfect and slow. u can probally google them. if u need more help just send me a pm if you need help with settings etc. also on the snes u can play perfect with no sound and run ur mp3s so its the emu that can't handle sound not the phone.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ChumleyEX:
Sounds like another reason to go to the htc rom.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] BoostedSR20:
Yeah, I play with no sound, but that sux. I'm using the helmi rom, but also tried it with the HTC rom. I also have pocket nester working great.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ChumleyEX:
I saw a method involving certifying the app but I think that might be beyond my scope.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Menneisyys:
Bad news the @ssholes at HTC still haven't managed to fix this problem - this has been a problem with ALL their 2.8" devices for TWO YEARS!!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Menneisyys:
Guys, I *really* hope you've been closely following my emulation-related Bibles in the General forum. If you don't want to search them one by one, you can find them all at http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&cat=353

You might also want to give a try to alternative emulators to find out whether they're any good.

I actually did read most of them, thats how I got into pocket Doom. I have Wolf3D, doom, and these emulators.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] mikeyaj:
Samsung have announced that in June they are releasing the 256gb micro sd card. The s7 was advertised as being compatible up to 200gb. Will the 256gb one be compatible ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Iradj:
As we all Know officialy the S7 Supports up to 200 GB and as far I know the 256 GB is right now not supported but I read somewhere there will be an Software-Update that can make it compatible but don't sure about it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] mikeyaj:
I seem to remember that my s3 was compatible to 32gb but I had a 64 gb one in it. And the s5 was up to 64 but I had a 128gb in it
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] NonXtreme:
If it's SDXC, it's compatible.

Technically all SDXC card is compatible. There's no such thing as 200gb limit but samsung said so because the largest card at that time was 200gb.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] mikeyaj:
I did presume as much. Just wish they'd get a move on and release it.

If they release a 256gb note 6 with sd card slot up to 256gb it's got insane storage
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] BitFeed:
I have this this microsd, but you can insert a 256 of s7
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Beefheart:
Each to their own but with cloud storage, streaming services like Spotify, Netflix and Amazon Prime, I've really no idea why anyone would want or need a 256gb SD card in a phone at this point, let along be impatient for it to be released. Surely complete overkill. Combine my 64gb MMC and the 32gb internal storage and I have enough room for anything.

I'm genuinely curious, why would someone need this? It seems like a desire based on little more than the fact it's a big number to me.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Rabangus:
I live in a city and mobile reception isn't too bad, but even so you can't be guaranteed to get reception good enough to stream music and video etc without breakups and buffering. If I go somewhere out of town (such as to my parents house) there is almost no chance of getting decent data reception.

In my opinion being able to use cloud services for streaming music and video and accessing files reliably is still many years away...

I have a 200gb card in my phone and it's getting pretty full, so if manufacturers are making bigger cards I am definitely interested!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] mikeyaj:
First of all if you're a fake music fan then you'd stream. Real music fans listen to real music you can't find on streaming in a good quality file. A real music fan simply would never consider low quality streaming.

Some of us have hefty music collections that is impossible to carry around with us or stream.

In the uk we don't have unlimited data on 4g unless your on a certain network which actually doesn't offer 4g at all.

The cost of data allowance in the UK is so abhorrent a real music fan would struggle with it. It's economical to buy a huge memory card.

Simple as that. It's not difficult to comprehend .

Plus connection is never garenteed. Carry around your music is garenteed connection . Streaming is years away from bring truly userable to the general user let alone the power user.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Beefheart:
Right, firstly, there was no need to be condescending with your ridiculous "fake music fan" and "not difficult to comprehend" comments. You just sound foolish and it does nothing for your argument.

Secondly, the extreme quality setting on Spotify is more than good enough for almost any music you wish to listen to on the move, plus you can download for offline use at the same quality. Sure, it's obviously not be as good as FLAC or other lossless codecs, but it's not as bad as you make out either. And believe me, I'm a bit of an audiophile as you would know if you took one look at the equipment I own. We're talking about a mobile phone with an average DAC, on the move, and the issues that come with that like background noise etc, which no earphones or headphones can completely cancel. If you want to listen to your music properly to the point where dynamics matter that much, it wouldn't be through a mobile phone so lets not pretend you're some sound perfectionist and only the best will do.

As for data in the UK, I get 15gb a month on a decent deal. If you shop around you get get something that will suffice, and you certainly don't need unlimited. And I get 4G nearly everywhere now with Vodafone.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] QBerto:
15GB wow, here u can just get like 8gb and is extremly expensive, so I live with 3GB.....

That's the first reason to not use stream, second one is: stream services stream what is popular, if we compare, there are like 5% of my music library on the stream services, so there's no point to depend on that services (also, I have to say even extreme quality sounds not so good in street situations, I'm almost always in my car, driving)

And that just talking about music, I record a lot (no need for a dedicated camera, this phone is just right, almost perfect) and some days I need more than 32GB (2X u really get) between my music and videos and photos I take, plus all apps I have installed... thats why I need more that just internal storage, is not about trolls, is about different usages
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Nitemare3219:
I'm using the Sandisk 200 GB card from the LG V10 promotion. I'd imagine 256 GB will work too. Might try it myself because this card has terrible write (even sequential) and random write/read speeds.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] J.Biden:
It'll work just fine. Samsung only says it supports 200 GB, because that was the biggest SD size at the time, but it, and other top tier phones today, supports up to 2TB.

"But 2TB MicroSD doesn't exist!"

Exactly, and that's why Samsung doesn't market the 2TB support, but 200GB, which exists.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Bmr999:
First, the pics these phones take are huge these days, I take lots of pics and some videos at max resolution, definitely need 200GB+. Second, air and car travel both require local music, so the fight over streaming vs local is moot... Quality is a possible reason for local music, but even if streaming music is good enough (true for some/many), if you travel streaming is not guaranteed, and is rarely available as opposed to rarely not available. Cloud storage and streaming services are sometimes an answer, Sometimes the problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] snake2332:
I'm a bit of a storage whore because I like to have movies, emulator roms, and music stored on there, while still having room for all the pics from this phone and the last couple (S6 + Note 5) and more pics in the future.

I'm also cheap and went with a pretty fast 128GB card for $35 and I have plenty of room still.

The 32GB built-in is barely ample if you have a handful of large games that don't actually move anything to SD when you perform the "move to SD" function. When my S7E was rooted, FolderMount didn't work to get the data for games/apps moved to microSD, so I like to keep the built-in memory available for apps while keeping pics and extras on microSD.

Back when I had the S6 and Note5 with no microSD, I used the nifty 64GB SanDisk USB3.0 + microUSB slider keychain thingie https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-connector-Android-Devices-SDDD2-064G-G46/dp/B00RBGYGPG $16 is all it costs now, haha.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] raze5115:
I'm a huge music fan too and carrying around music is a must for me cause I rarely stream my music & i download all my videos cause I hate the aspect ratio they are recorded in. So a really huge storage size sd card is a must for me as well. I already filled up both my 32gb internal memory on my s7 edge as well as my 64gb sd card that's also in my phone. You must not be a true music fan if you don't carry your music with you & you stream it aka you must be a fake music fan like the other person said earlier.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] bxcovi:
I received the 256gb from the promotion for the Note 7.. i ended up returning my note 7 and got a s7 edge. This is one of my questions i had and it works. The 256gb sd card works on the s7 edge.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] c4manceph:
Same experience here. The 256 GB SD card that came with the Note 7 promotion works just fine in the S7 Edge. I'll be using it as adoptable storage, because 32 GB seems pretty ridiculous since nearly half of that is used up with the OS and a few apps.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] azzicles:
Same here too. Came from Note7. 256GB card works fine.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] dshdwg:
Just bought 256 gb sd card and it downloads slower than molasses and phone doesn't read the card (in Rocket Player when scanning for new files) I have a 200gb SanDisc that downloads with lightning speed and works like a charm. Incidentally the 256gb is a Samsung EVO+. So why does my phone regurgitated anything added to Sam sd yet San sd will digest it properly (in a manner of speaking)?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Big Bread:
You've possibly bought a fake. I had a similar problem with my fake 64 GB Samsung Evo card but not anymore with my 256 GB Samsung Evo+ and SGS7e. You'd never know that they're fake until you scrutinise their packaging or use them.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Cst79:
Am I the only one with no music, no games and like 10 camera pictures stored on the phone's memory after 7 months of use ? :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] smokethrower2:
Way late on a reply here, but I just found this searching for if I can get a sd card bigger than 200 gb for the s7 edge and it looks like the answer is YES! Awesome. Now if the price wasn't so bad for a 256gb Evo +. Looks like I'll be going with the San Disk Ultra 200gb since only $62 on Amazon right now.

As for helping people explain why we need so much storage... music, pictures, videos, movies, custom roms, and titanium backups are my reasons. I like to try new roms a lot and keep complete backups of everything for ease of transitions in between them. As for my music collection, I don't like to stream because I don't want to hear a "channel" of like music or commercials plus I only have a 2.5 gb data limit and I listen to music pretty much all day at work and in my car. I like the variety of having thousands of songs at my fingertips without killing my data limit and battery. Same goes for movies. As for pictures, I will store years of pictures from my previous phones too as you never know when you will want to reference an old picture and it never hurts having them "backed up" on another device in case of a crash. Those are my quick(not so quick) thoughts.

An Excercise in Futility

I guess it's nice that someone cares enough about the desires and motives of other people and this response is based on solid logic. However, I think it's important to understand that there are as many reasons for particular ambitions as there are people who possess them.

More importantly, unless it affects us directly, it's really not for us to determine the validity, the logical or illogical reasons, the right or the wrong when it comes to things that other people want.
