[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
Okay so I know that tripping KNOX voids the manufacturer warranty but how does it factor into Jump? My Note 5 is in excellent condition but as I'm running Darthstalker, KNOX is tripped. I've heard that recently T-Mobile has decided not to take KNOX tripped phones even if they have been fully restored to stock and they're fully functional and will force you to pay the insurance deductible. I am wondering who has experienced this? I won't pay the deductible, ill tell them where they can shove their deductible, leave, smash the Note 5, bring it in and leave it on the counter. My account was inherited from my roommate who passed away and still is in his name and his social so good luck if they try to come after me for payment but it seems like the reps would want the sale from the purchase of a new flagship (I'm looking at the HTC 10) more than a 200 dollar deductible costing them a sale. We all know Samsung can reset the KNOX counter and I don't even have so much as a scratch on my screen. T-Mobile has taken an unlocked M7 and unlocked M8 from me when it came time to Jump so if they changed their policy and check for indicators of a phone ever being modified, I'm going to flip. The battery on my Note 5 is on its last legs so I need to do something and carrying around a ZeroLemon brick isn't appealing. If it makes any difference, I'm on Jump 1 not 2 or JoD.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] speedy1979:
I realize that your upset about your battery being on it's last legs especially because it is not easily replaced. But please don't flip-out on the store rep, they have no say in Tmobile policy it not their fault that Samsung decided to add Knox to their devices. Secondly the deductible is $175 for a tier 5 device see here: https://myphpinfo.com/t-mobile/general/view-all-deductibles?lang=en

Think of it this way. For $175 you can use jump to get a brand new device as opposed to paying full price upfront.

Lastly if your handy you might try replacing the battery yourself http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_fro...ery&rt=nc&LH_PrefLoc=1&_trksid=p2045573.m1684

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
What will piss me off is that this policy change is new, that's my point. I've had Jump since a week after it launched and I've never had an issue but now apparently I might. I still find it hard to believe they will give up a sale and a 13 year old account though. I'm not paying 175 on top of the 140 a year I already pay just to have Jump AND the full cost of the phone, that's ridiculous.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] voxluna:
For what it's worth, I have never once had T-Mobile say anything about a phone I've returned to them, under Jump or warranty claim. And I have rooted every single phone I've had since the original G1 came out, with perhaps 6 or 7 of them total being exchanged or turned in. I accidentally microwaved a phone a few years ago, and they sent a new one and told me to keep the busted one. Of course, your mileage may vary.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
Yeah I don't know where this info is coming from but I decided to Jump last night and tried it over the phone and they don't even ask. They ask you to disable phone security, if there's water damage, and if the screen is clean. They don't ask about anything else. The order failed on the phone but I did it online and it went through fine. I'm now in the backorder queue for an HTC 10. There is nothing on there that says anything about it either. It has the additional question about if it powers on when charged.

The only thing I can think of is T-Mobile has added some point of sale checks but Assurant doesn't have the time to check phones like that. I'm not going to use the Assurant USPS label though, I'm going to ship it with UPS so I know that it gets there. It's even going back in its original box. I don't foresee any problems so it must just be the stores because I've seen T-Mobile employees say that they do indeed check with some machine they have there. Obviously Jump through the mail is a bit of a pain in the backside, especially with the phone being back ordered but this way I'm following the terms on the website and I have two recorded phone calls as well if anyone tries to kick anything back down the line where I'm never even asked if the device is modified and since I'm going HTC, I'll have S-OFF so I can cover my tracks if anything happens in the future.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Jammol:
Man you guys are looking into this way too hard. Sales rep will say anything, literally. I had one say to me yesterday in the store that they used a Note 6 earlier that day. Umm, yeah.

Just put the phone to full stock and send it back.

By the way, Samsung either can't or won't reset the counter. That's why people get Knox tripped phones from T-Mobile and Samsung warranty. My last warranty claim was from Samsung and it came Knox tripped. Same thing with a lady whose phone I rooted, Knox was tripped before I did any flashing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
Yeah the website doesn't ask about root or anything so if they were to try to kick it back to me, I'd have a really tight defense there considering every phone they've gotten from me before was rooted. Hell I've had T-Mobile store reps show me the custom ROMs on their phones before...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Jammol:
Actually, they can send it back or hit you with a charge. The TOS literally states modification of the device voids everything. They even have the "right to cut your service if they want to" listed in there as well.

T-Mobile is just not worrying about it right now until it starts to cost them revenue.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
I understand T-Mobile can do whatever they want, all the carriers can, but if T-Mobile wants to enforce that policy they need to add the question "has your device been rooted or otherwise modified?" to both the website and the sales scripting. It isn't there. I live in a state where I can record any call for any reason without notifying the other party and I have a recorded call from trying to order it over the phone where I am not asked anything about modifications or read any terms. They told me that I needed to remove my fingerprints, asked about liquid damage and damage to the screen. I've got my bases covered but yeah, I think that T-Mobile really doesn't care, its just the stores that bother checking. I'd bet if I went to the Denver 16th Street Mall store that they would rush through it and not check because they are a high volume store and they'd be getting a new flagship sale too. Either way, I'll not be getting a Samsung device ever again. S-OFF let's me do what I want and restore the phone back to how it was out of the box when I am done so I won't have to worry about this anymore.

The most annoying thing is that the primary reason I root my phones is just to restore my apps and data. Resetting all of my authenticators just takes too much time. I've even been known to install a custom ROM and restore my data then permanently unroot it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] pcriz:
Because the customer rep doesn't ask you and its not stated when going through the process doesn't make you exempt for the simple fact that signing the documentation means you have already agreed to the stipulations. Heck them accepting it one day and not accepting it another doesn't even imply you have a leg to stand on.

A contract is a contract is a contract. Just because someone paid 11.60 to answer phones in a call center doesn't ask if you are rooted doesn't mean they couldn't at some point decide to check. They also don't ask about 99.8% of the other stipulations called out. Doesn't mean they are null and void.

You already agreed to all the terms.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] winordieracin:
I used jump to go from my Note 4 to Note 5 with no problems. My N4 was rooted and Knox was tripped. Simply unrooted flashed the current tmo stock at the time and that was it. When I went in to jump all the rep did was look at the phone thenext bring up the dialer and dial some special number that did a couple checks I guess to make sure the phone was functional but she said ok everything checks out let's get you a Note 5. That was it. Now who knows what other stores are like but here in Ohio there is one store in my city that most device rooters go and never run into issues.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] EtherealRemnant:
Yeah I opted to do it online. My HTC 10 was back ordered until yesterday, shipped today, will be here Monday.

Hi I am Sharath, I am using moto g4 plus for the past 5 days

Only problem I am having is I can't use the camera when ever I try to take a photo (by clicking on the screen or the shutter button) the camera app crashes plz help me u can reach me on amksharath.k.s@gmail.com thx
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] rum0s:
Maybe try a Factory Reset or clean the App Cache?
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] cool_sid:
Hello Sarath, buddy you need to reset your moto g4 plus.... I don't say that there is no other way but the best way is to reset the device......

You may also fiddle with app setting but clearing data and cache or by force stopping

Or by backing up with Titanium backup (root available) n then restoring it without restoring data
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] iloveindia:
did install the latest OTA update?

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] dman777:
I do not have a S7 but I am thinking about buying a S7....

If I had a S7, I would use 3d launcher pro. Because of this, I wouldn't be using the Samsung themes. Would my always on display still work? And would I still be able to pick a theme for the always on display if I used a third party launcher like 3d launcher?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] gc180:
Yes it will still work as normal. AOD is not dependent on the launcher.

Krexus-CAF is what the name implies. The Krexus unique combination of mods, on top of a clean uptodate and latest CAF source.

Built mainly of top of AOSP-CAF (with permission) and using only what's necessary from all the other great non-nexus device supporting ROMs (CyanogenMod, Dirty Unicorns, AOSPB, Tesla etc), Krexus-CAF tries to provide the maximum compatibility possible with CM-based device trees while keeping a small ROM base.

Lead Developer: @KreAch3R

About Krexus:

Krexus was born out of a simple necessity. The latest releases of stock Android (namely lollipop and marshmallow) were pretty close to my idea of a perfect android ROM, yet missing some elements, which are meant to be included in stock Android, at least for me. Starting from a clean AOSP environment, only specific features and fixes are included, which are personally tested, with one goal in mind. To create a stock like android ROM, "as it should be".

This means, and I mean it, a ROM like how stock nexus image should be, for me.

This isn't going to get bloated. Most UI "features" are already there.

This isn't going to start picking commits relentlessly, I will test them personally and only add things that 1) work like they should 2) would fit in a stock ROM.

This isn't going to be updated very quickly. Only security and bug fixes will be pushed out ASAP.

This is going to follow Google's & AOSP guidelines as closely as I can.

Hello to everyone

I found tips for root and install TWRP recovery mod, but I can't find any information about the custom rom for this tablet. Maybe because is not supported by developers, but I want know if there are other information about this. I see that there is a rom cyanogenmod for zenpad-8-z380kl and I want know if is possible install it on Z8580CA without problems. Thank you very much
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Luckzzz:
I cannot access simple tasks in Marshmallow regarding SD CARD used as portable

(Used as Internal Memory I would lose the ability to use it in another phone)

E.g.: I can't save a simple photo to the external sd using CameraFV5 . Very annoying!!!

I'm using 5.1 only because of that s*** :(

I got 0% of drain in hours using 6.0.1 so i NEED doze mode .. lol..

If anyone knows how to solve this instead of asking every dev to update their apps I would appreciate!! :good::laugh:

Look likes there's no SDCard Fix yet as it had in KitKat (as a module in Xposed)..
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] htw1:
I have this **** to, so I am waiting for fix with you.
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Luckzzz:
Hopefully someone will discover the right method to patch this because writing the WRITE_MEDIA_STORAGE didn't work to me:

"All you need to do is finding the XML section for the app which should be able to write to the SD card, and add the tag

Code:

<item name="android.permission.WRITE_MEDIA_STORAGE" granted="true" flags="0" />

to the perms section. Doing so will grant the app the WRITE_MEDIA_STORAGE permission.

This permission is normally exclusive to signed system apps. It allows the app to write on /sdcard and any external storage, so it's essentially the same as WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE in the pre-Kitkat-era.

I've tried it with several apps, and it worked like a charm"

/\ This method didn't work for me :(
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
Battery usage of Lollipop and Marshmallow on the G3 are virtually identical, the Moto G 2015 does NOT support Doze Mode. If you are seeing something different I suggest looking to the cause of that.

And the most likely reason your camera app can't access portable storage us not the Moto G, but the camera app hasn't been updated properly to handle it yet.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] dudah85:
so i'm upgrading my wizard to an 8525. up til now i've managed to get by without a data plan and only text messages. i'm curious how to get cheap data plans on at&t. i called them and they said $29.95/mo JUST for data.

i've heard people getting unlimited data for like $6 a month using proxies or something? i've had no luck perusing google and forums for info on this so hoping somebody here has some answers. thanks!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] cjchriscj:
The cheapest plan I know you can get for unlimited data is the mediaNet unlimited for 19.99 a month, and thats if you get someone thats nice enought to give you that plan since they aren't supposed to give that plan to people with PDAs
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] 8thcivic:
so do you know if the mediaNet unlimited for 19.99 a month with work with a hermes? i used to have that with my 8125, but when i bought the 8525 they changed it...if i change it back to the media net plan...will it work? without getting any strange overages on my bill?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] intrglctcrevfnk:
Yeah it will work. I've used for the last several months! The only thing to remember is to ONLY connect through wap.cingular, NOT isp.cingular.

I've noticed no problems with mine! When you get the phone the sales rep always tells you that you have to have the pda plan to use the phone. It is against the rules to use the MediaMax plan but between my phone and my wifes phone spending an extra 100 bucks a month for data started to really suck the wallet dry.

Now we both use Media Max 200 +Unl m2m texts. 24.99 Text and data all you want!

There are some other threads out here about this, search media max and you'll find them.

Now your not supposed to do this but many of us get away with it. Just make sure after every rom flash that youve got your connections setting on wap.cingular and UN: WAP@CINGULARGRPS and Pw: Cingular1

Reps and Phone people will not let you get this plan, GO ONLINE to att.com/mobile and add it there!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] fb401:
tell the reps that you're switching to a razr or something and ask to be switched to a Media Max option which gives you unlimited data and either 200 messages (19.99) or 1500 messages (29.99). MUCH cheaper than getting a PDA data option.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] galaxys:
If your unlocked and have the coverage in your area, I would check T-Mobile data rates. I saved a bunch not going with AT&T.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] fb401:
while that's true, you do miss out on using 3G. especially if the prices you get can be close to the same.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] 8thcivic:
so wat u r sayin is that i will lose my 3g connectivity if i get the media max plan instead of the pda......right now i have the 39.99 plan with unlimited internet and messaging.....so do u guys think it will be worth it to switch to the media max??
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] themilkman:
from the sounds of it no, you can still use 3g. please connect me if i am wrong... anyone?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] singhnx:
You're right. You won't lose 3G by going with the lower priced plan. The person who said that you'd lose 3G was comparing using T-Mobile's lower cost plans to AT&T plans.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] fb401:
Oh, sorry if I confused anyone. I meant you lose 3G if you go to T-Mobile for a lower priced data plan. You absolutely will not lose 3G by getting a Media Max plan. I have the Media Max 1500 plan and I was using the Hermes (now Kaiser) and love it.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Judgementand:
screw someone that's nice enough.

Do all of your business with AT&T online if possible. Go to the site and select MediaMax from the list (unlimited internet and like 200 text messages I believe) or the upgraded version that's exactly the same except 1500 text messages (for $29.99 instead of $19.99 a month). Do it online and nobody can say no.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] charlie71:
getting the cheaper unimited plan for my 8525

If I go online and order the cheaper 29 dollar plan (or was it 39) anway, can I connect my AT&T 8525 to my laptop (tether) and use it for internet service? The AT&T rep told me this cost $80! My AT&T phone is running factory ROM, mobile 5 (mobile 6 when ever it comes out)

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] singhnx:
Here's what I've heard ... you can tether on the $20 plan ... but do so at your own discretion since tethering isn't a part of the plan. There's a lot of discussion about this on hofo. So far no one has been charged that I know of.

I just Called At&T and told them to add [Media Max 200 Bundle for $19.99] to my account. they told me that I have 8525 PDA phone. and I told them that I am going to change the phone to razr. Then they added it for me and I reset the phone after changing the setting to wap.cingular

Now it is working fine. with 3G Connection. :)

My AT&T data plan is great! $25/mo for Unlimited Data.

However they broke the 3G network authentication for "AT&T Legacy", "Cingular Blue", AT&T Blue SIM cards.

And Edge is WAY slow! I can't get anyone at AT&T to help!

I haven't switched plans because they still have nothing that can compete with my current plan!

hey if you guys want i actually am an AT&T rep and i'll put you guys on the media max no hassle it helps me out with quota and it helps you save money PM me.. only info i need to make the switches would be the normal info as when you call in or see a rep in the store and that is phone number name and last four/passcode... easier way to get it done i think... i can e-mail the CSS that prints out. like i said just let me know and save the hassle :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] c0v3rr1d3:
excellent find, just added the media max 200 to my account for 19.99 configued the phone and now have unlimated data , woot!!!

It isn't hard to do online so why would anyone need you to do it? Stop spamming.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Xyberz:
Because, it's easy as a rep to just tell the company what you guys are doing and they can easily stop it. So do us reps a favor and don't be a jack@ss and add it on yourself. It takes one call and we just put it on and it helps us so we can continue to help you guys. Reps have families that they need to take care of too and by you calling in to add on the service, helps their monthly income.

If you were in the same position, you wouldn't want someone just doing it themselves and only putting money into the pockets of the company and letting them keep it all when some of it can help someone else.

Don't be a greedy @ss! Cause it takes one call to the top and, BAM you won't be able to take advantage of doing such a thing at a low price.

Think about it this way, $39.99 for unlimited data or $19.99?

I also work for AT&T and I know how the reps feel. We ALL have quotas we have to hit and by people like yourselves adding crap on yourself, doesn't help anyone but the company.
