[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] Androidwarrior:
I just received a new replacement yesterday. It's on update BPD2. 1st question, do you think twrp will work? 2nd, if i flash SU v2.74 will it brick my phone? 3rd, If questions 1 and 2 are successful will i need a custom kernel for my phone to boot?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] jksell07:
Worked ok for me

I too got my note 5 yesterday. I'm rooted and running MOAR 3.2 as we speak. Here's what I did:

I took the sprint OTA to 6.0.1 PD2.

Then I odin'd TWRP with the "twrp-3.0.2-0-M-nobleltespr.tar.tar" file.

Booted into recovery and flashed "BETA-SuperSU-v2.74-2-20160519174328.zip". (Tried Stable 2.65 first but it didn't take).(Also, don't forget to turn on OEM Unlock & USB Debugging)

That's it. I'm rooted.

I made a backup then I flashed MOAR 3.2. It hung the first time. After about 30 mins I rebooted into TWRP and flashed the rom again (dirty flash, no wiping) and now I'm enjoying the Mother Of All Roms!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] bargas123:
did you install moar 3.2 pc3 over your stock pd2? do you know if i can install stock pd1 over pd2? im having issues with the rom and i cant find the pd2 tar file.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] jksell07:
Yes

Im not sure. When I got my phone it was on lollipop and I took the sprint OTA straight to MM pd2 before rooting. I would ask in the Moar Q&A thread. Im sure tdunham would help you out. You could always odin back to stock unrooted and take the official update but thats probably not necessary.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] ch3ck3rs:
Thanks for this info. Did you wipe or lose any data during this process? Some of the vids I've seen on YouTube wipe the phone manually during rooting. Just like the OP, I'm finding it difficult to find newer information and instructions. Most everything posted anywhere deals with older software versions. Thanks a bunch
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] jksell07:
No data loss for me. I'm assuming the Youtube videos involved using software to root your phone. There's really no need for a middle man. Just Odin a recovery, boot into it and flash SuperSU. No need to wipe unless you take the next step and flash a custom rom.
[LG G Flex 2] CoolCid:
i sent my lg flex 2 back to currys and pc world for a full refund as i was getting really bad overheating problems unless i was rooted so i can eaither rebuy a flex 2 and hope that this one wont overheat as someone else did that on this forum and it didnt overheat or i could just get my refund and buy a whole new phone altogether, i am think the oneplus X but if there are any better phones then that could you please leave it in the comment down below as i dont know what to chose from

(Budget is 220)
[LG G Flex 2] k3lcior:
Check out Xiaomi Mi4c, u can get 3/32GB version for about $220.

It's Snapdragon 808 so performance very close to Flex 2 and it doesn't overheat.

No SD slot but 3GB RAM and 32GB storage is plenty imo.

I had mi4c and kinda regret i sold it and got Flex 2...

Oneplus X is much slower but has very nice build quality, also plenty of development on xda (custom roms).

Flex 2 will overheat no matter what because it's older Snapdragon 810 revision.
[LG G Flex 2] meangreenie:
got my missus a redmi note 3 pro, which has the SD650 chipset and is very fast, @80,000 for antutu. It seems very good so far and has really good battery life, 10-11 hours screen on time here, and is very cheap. Only thing I've had to do to it is turn off memory optimisation in developer settings because it was killing apps in the background at an insane rate, making downloads fail, home screen redraws etc.. the other thing is it might not support 4g on certain networks, you'll have to check

best bit is if you drop it, you don't care
[LG G Flex 2] CoolCid:
Is the one plus customer service good i heard that it isnt but this was a long time ago?
[LG G Flex 2] k3lcior:
I dont know about one plus.

[LG G Flex 2] PhantasmRezound:
General Tips for Buying Used Phones.

Don't have any tips on a specific replacement phone, but when shopping in general Swappa is a good place to find cheap phones (and is the official marketplace for XDA.) This is where I'd look first thanks to the support and generally good community.

I actually picked my G Flex 2 off of a Craigslist ad for $130 USD and saw several other 2015 phones under $200 in my area; excellent prices can be had but no buyer protection this way. If you take this route, make sure to get pics of any damage if not listed, ask if anything is wrong/everything works, and recheck everything in person before the purchase. Request phone to be charged so you can use the phone hands-on and make sure the OS is functional; check the software version in system settings and look for signs of root apps (mine was rooted by the previous person so I immediately reflashed stock ROM and rooted myself once home, just to be sure nothing nasty like spyware or a device recovery app was left behind on there.) Bring small accessories too that you want to make sure will work like USB cord with charger, headphones, NFC tag, etc. Most importantly, arrange to make the phone purchase at the phone's carrier store. I scheduled the purchase to be at a Sprint store for my LS996 so I could verify with them if the ESN was blacklisted or clean, or if there was anybody else who had the phone on their account (active or inactive.) I could've asked for the MSL code and official Unlock to GSM Domestic once confirmed clean by Sprint but I've made the phone work on AT&T GoPhone LTE without it using the guide here.

Regardless of you go through, make sure to take all reasonable precautions to make sure the phone works and will suit you. Pay attention to the seller's attitude too: typically honest sellers will accommodate most requests and dishonest ones may question you or refuse your requests. You may also get a dishonest seller that is eager to rush the sale if they sense you aren't catching something wrong with the purchase - honest sellers will generally be patient if you show genuine interest in buying.
[LG G Flex 2] kutulu32:
You made a mistake to give it back .for the price flex 2 is the best out there. As for oneplus x it has the 801 snapdragon that means an older processor like the original oneplus.

And one advice from a fellow "performance freak" . dont rely on benchmarks only they are a useful tool to check performance but everyday use is a better factor.For example:

One of the fastest phones out there is samsung s7 exynos version.

But it has a slower gpu than the snapdragon820 version.

In Geekbench for example the exynos version gets far better scores. In every day use the single core performance matters at most. Multicore is for gaming mostly.

In antutu the snapdragon version gets better scores because of the better gpu.
[LG G Flex 2] CoolCid:
I still have an option to buy the flex 2 or one plus x

I would get one plus 2 but it's lcd not oled
[LG G Flex 2] CoolCid:
At least I can say I had the flex
[LG G Flex 2] k3lcior:
Mi4c is better.
[LG G Flex 2] WittePens:
The screen is terrible on the g flex 2. But it has a far better camera then the OnePlus x.

Also i'd pick Snapdragon 801 over 810 anyday. The battery drain is ridiculous with the 810.

[LG G Flex 2] raugaral:
I think the opo x have better updates, but if that is not important for you... take a flex2.

Any way take a look at findyourperfectphone.com, have a chart with phones filtered for price/value, and one expert mode to see all phone with the aspects that you want...
[LG G Flex 2] CoolCid:
Thanks for all your help but I bought a HTC One a9
[LG G Flex 2] k3lcior:
So u have chosen the worst phone out of all recommended phones here, why even make such thread?

:good:
[LG G Flex 2] CoolCid:
Your saying that a Chinese phone is better than HTC
[LG G Flex 2] CoolCid:
HTC has well more features and I got it brand new unlocked for 209 the one plus X is crap
[LG G Flex 2] raugaral:
good choice
[LG G Flex 2] k3lcior:
FYI HTC is originating from Taiwan which is Chinese province, it's never too late for education.
[LG G Flex 2] CoolCid:
True but atleast HTC is based in UK aswell
[LG G Flex 2] kutulu32:
my last 2 htc phones I ever bought were htc p3300(artemis) and tytn2. lol

The problem with htc today is not that she doesn't make quality phones but the lack of promotion

Also prices are very high
[LG G Flex 2] CoolCid:
I got my HTC One a9 for 200
[LG G Flex 2] CoolCid:
Also the HTC looks like an iPhone
[LG G Flex 2] kutulu32:
Yes like iphone6

As far as the price you got it it is very very good.As for the device it would be better if it had more battery,better cpu, boomspeakers, 4k video rec. it is a midrange premium

device. You got the 32 version 3 g ram?

in europe the starting price was also much higher than usa

in a famous greek online shop it costs the 32 gmodel now 350+ euro.
[LG G Flex 2] CoolCid:
Atleast I can say I had the flex 2
[LG G Flex 2] CoolCid:
The flex 2 didn't feel premium this HTC feels so nice in the hand
[LG G Flex 2] CoolCid:
Can anyone make a surround MOD for the HTC One a9
[LG G Flex 2] CoolCid:
Don't worry guys I'm getting the lg flex 2 again hate this phone
[LG G Flex 2] petraru1:
What's wrong with it?
[LG G Flex 2] CoolCid:
The camera is good but can't focus to save it's life,battery drains in few hours, looks like every other phone, slow CPU speeds although it isn't much slower than 810 you can tell the differenc and really bad screen not bright.

Pros - feels more premium than the flex, looks stylish, fingerprint scanner, gets updated 15days after android release, good quality camera but can't focus, good antenna bands reception, the HTC sense is amazing HTC will keep updating it
[LG G Flex 2] CoolCid:
I really liked the 5.5 inch poled screen I compared it to my mum's flex 2 and the colours were a lot more vibrant on the flex compared to the htc, htc oled looks like LCD with deep blacks really budget priced oled

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Antieco:
Hi is there any way to get xposed framework working on a rooted AFTV Stick? I know there isn't a custom recovery to flash the zip file, will it be possible to do it through a script?

What to do after rooting? Is it possible to replace amazon launcher? Will it improve user experience? I'm not using any amazon services, just kodi. Debloating is possible?

Many thanks!

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deanr1977:
Yes it is possible to do both these things if you want/need to do this though I'd Google it, I would not want or feel comfortable telling you how because without a working recovery you may/ possibly will end up with a bricked device? Rbox is working on a recovery & posted pictures on AFTVNews & here on XDA forums showing a preview of the boot screen, but it won't be released just yet & doesn't want to be pressured on a release date. There was another forum member on here saying he wants to make a custom rom based off rboxs prerooted rom, so my advice would be hold off until at least a recovery has been released then if anything doesn't go to plan a backup can be re applied. Plus now the latest updates have blocked certain rooting methods you should think wisely before jumping in feet first.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Antieco:
Thanks, this tool promises installing xposed framework without having a custom recovery FlashFire by the well known xda member [MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION].

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deanr1977:
It "can" be done.... but common users of xposed framework will tell you that any module or an update from a module could be unstable & bootloop your device, if you want to install Xposed like I said in my comment just use Google I found a way without using a recovery within minutes of typing.... but it's not recommend, thats why I didn't leave a link.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Antieco:
Well thanks again, congrats for your google search skills, but I must say it took me less than a minute to find the method. My question was a bit more like asking if someone did have tried getting xposed working despite the recovery restriction.

Also posted the url to FlashFire if any adventurous wants to test it.

What module update has looped a device? With xposed comes a certain amount of risk, but it's not like flashing a rom or zip in recovery...

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deanr1977:
If you have used custom ROMs, rooted phones & tablets in the past, xposed firmware on various devices & have modded zips, files or deblote your system & or used custom recoverys you will know that bootloops can come from time to time, so not using a recovery is a bit like jumping out of a plane without a parachute!
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ldeveraux:
How else would you suggest to install custom roms on the Fire 7" tablet that doesn't have an installable recovery? I don't disagree that recovery>flashfire, but it works well for many people.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deanr1977:
All I'm saying is that it may work fine today, tomorrow & maybe next week.... but at some point it's possible that you could come across a bootloop when you least expect it due to Xposed or by deleting a system dependent app, then you have a unrecoverable device? Its not recommend to use without a working recovery & ideally a backup if possible? There is risks involved, if you choose to take the risks that's fine but make sure you know there could be dire consequences, that's why it's best that if you do don't involve others with links or threads saying "this works fine" or other forum members are left with non working devices because they didn't know the risks. A little while back a few users on this forum installed Kingroot & the then tried to install Super Sume or Super Sume Pro to swap for the Super Su by chainfire which resulted in a few users being left which bricked devices (aftv2 boxes) with no way back! Because of poor advice, some said yes it works & after rebooting the device hanged on the bootscreen & never got anywhere since! Hence the be careful posts regarding all this installing Xposed framework without thinking first.

Hope this helps

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deanr1977:
[MENTION=4196591]sconnyuk[/MENTION] at the moment no, once recovery is finished & is officially released (don't ask when but it's being worked on at the moment by rbox) you will have a prerooted rom, which should be with chainfires Su like the other Fire Tv devices all have, probably if rbox is good to us all we should have the different prerooted firmwares like the others have too (fingers crossed) & that's the best option for you at the moment, there is no other way to swap/change the Su yet! So just sit back & wait until then ok, he's already provided proof of a recovery boot screen so people know he's working on it, so calm down & just wait for the release like the rest, then you can start on other stuff like xposed & modding the stick? Hope this helps
