Hi skoad

You have a Verizon and, as so, you may first start by reading the below:

[GUIDE] Unlocking the Galaxys S5 Bootloader using DEV Bootloader [KK-MM]

As soon as you find yourself comfortable, you will need first update your Bootloader (mentioned above) and Modem partitions. To do so you should flash a Sammobile firmware using Odin.

These are the firmwares available for you but only the first one is Marshmallow and your aim.

You may follow these general instructions obviously regarding your device data.

The Kernel update will be done by the ROM you are focusing to install and it will be rooted already.

Let us know how it performed with Stock.

Cheers.

Thanks a ton. I am pretty busy this weekend but will be giving this a shot Monday and will report back. What youve provided seems very helpful and straightforward, just what I was hoping for!
[Elephone Vowney] joelccpinto:
Hi!!

Two days ago i received the two elephones vowney that i ordered. Overall i'm really impress but theres something that is worrying me. It heats a lot and It seems elephone have forsaken this device. No updates since January and no answer to threads in the built in app about vowney. Does anyone know if they are going to release android 6.0 to this model and if they will could it be possible to solve this heat problem? Anyone with the same problem? Beside that its a really good phone!

Thanks in advance and sorry fo rmy english.
[Elephone Vowney] dfs_:
Have you enabled fingerprint scanner? That made my power consumption go through the roof and heated the device

Hi everyone, after years of owning an Optimus G, I finally decided to get me a G4 as I saw at a good price.

So after skimming through a bit I noticed there's some stuff going about 6.0 update issues and how some recent batches are fine now. I'm a bit confused so wanted to know what's good to do with the new device (rooting, unlocking, updating, etc) as I haven't decided to update to 6.0 because of what the forums say.

What's a good set of steps to get the phone working at its fullest? :) All advice is appreciated.
[T-Mobile LG G4] brossovitch:
Just bought one too. It's a great device. Mine came with 6.0 installed.

Updating is good, IMHO. I had 20i out of the box though..

You can unlock bootloader and root and even install ROMs!

I unlocked my bootloader and installed TWRP within the first hour of owning the device. Modified the stock 6.0 system to my liking and it runs fantastically. Very stable.

I also use CM13. I love Cyanogenmod. So I had to install it. CM13 is quite good and very snappy on this device. You lose some function of the camera and several features of the stock OS but you reap the benefits of amazing firmware and great options.. Honestly, it's a toss up between the 2 firmwares (stock & CM) for me. The camera takes great photos in CM13 but no manual mode or 4k video or laser focus apparently. But you will need to start with stock 6.0..

It really depends what you want out of your phone..

There's also many options for ROMs to install.

- LG-H811 via XDA app on CM13.
[T-Mobile LG G4] Arcsol:
Hey thanks for the feedback! I did upgrade as a leap of faith and no real problems so far. And yeah, I decided to root now anyways as all the bloat is getting annoying.

As for roms, I did consider CM so I'll give it a try! Thanks a lot for your suggestion :)
[T-Mobile LG G4] raptorddd:
be aware that g4 has bootloop issues , and if unlocked bootloader then warranty doesnt cover it any more..

you can only downgrade to lollipop 10N or update to MM..

mine is locked and am on LP rooted//with xposed.
[T-Mobile LG G4] Erick Cho:
I just got mine which is already on 6.0 and is 20i

I do worry about the bootloop issues that I saw many people got into that and turn the phone into trash, so is there any way I can use other rom or at least to take off those bloatware like T-mobile and amazon etc?

I have no idea how to do this kinda of things and read some post that all pretty confusing to me since they all put in some tech words like " SDK or ADB" in these steps

"4. Using the android issue SDK. Open a command window and link it to your SDK folder where ADB is located (typically Platform-Tools)

5. Once the Command window is linked to the folder, connect your device via USB and allow the connection. "

So if anyone can help me with as simple step by step ways to do it for new beginner that would be great.
[T-Mobile LG G4] raptorddd:
am also worried.. thats why i have bootloader locked.. am itching to unlock it... but in case of bootloop we need the moddified TOT file but it doesnt support USA phones.. they said to change name with hex editor program... one guy tried it and it bricked phone... if we had a working file for our h811 i would unlock it.. flash file ..try the relocking bootloader command and flash stock firmware and send to LG ... but no one has made moddified TOT or have make a video of relocking bootloader... i only see a thread that confirms it can be done...

do not update new 20o its antirollback V3.. youll be stuck in it for ever..

on 20i MM you cant unless you unlock bootloader....

but on LP 10n yes you can root it... and remove all crap..

20i MM and LP 10n its antirollback V2 you can switch to them .. lower then that will brick phone..

i could help.. if you want to use LP 10n.. to root.. as unlocking bootloader i have no idea...

LOL same here am not good a commands and adb shell stuff... but reading carefully and if doubt ask, then i can be done..
[T-Mobile LG G4] scottyd035ntknow:
I just got this phone as well, I have heard that the last run units have the bootloop issue fixed but not sure if that is just LG propaganda. I got one manufactured April 2016 and it was the last one any of the stores local to me had in stock brand new in box. I mean I've only had it for a day and it already has 20o on it so hopefully I'm good. I have jump so it really only needs to last a year anyway.
[T-Mobile LG G4] raptorddd:
some new phone have gotten bootloop.. and dont downgrade your phoen if on 20o its antirollback V3. you stuck there..
[T-Mobile LG G4] Astroballs:
**I have a quick question about 20o since I'm seeing conflicting information on the forum: can we root/unlock bootloader if we're on 20o?

I see plenty of testimony for 20i though.
[T-Mobile LG G4] scottyd035ntknow:
Yeah you can. I'm doing it to mine tonight. I legit cannot stand the ads in my apps...
[T-Mobile LG G4] Astroballs:
Yeah, ended up finding a method. I played too much with it though and now I'm having issues connecting to my LTE network. Oh well, live and learn I guess.
[T-Mobile LG G4] scottyd035ntknow:
I doubt I'll do more than root and then use root explorer to force disable any apps I can't do normally. I get 7GB of free tethering per line with T-Mo as well so I don't even need a rom for the tether hack although if I start flying again and use my LTE as my internet source I might then... I routinely used over 100GB a month when I had verizon unlimited a few years ago and was flying.
[General Questions and Answers] blackfire74:
Hello,

lately I found that my Galaxy Note 3 has original CSC from Spain which is XES, but other things are XEO, although I live in Poland (XEO) and my phone was bought in Poland and was mentioned for polish market. I flashed AryaMod, official KK, official Lollipop but it still shows Spain. Anyway, after factory reset main language which shows up during initial setup before you set language is Polish.

My question is: does this affect my reception or battery drain during phone calls or anything else? I know I wont get any updates but I don't care. I use AryaMod custom firmware. I also have another Note 3 which has CSC XEO and all stuff in XEO and it is kinda clone, using same nandroid backup on both so each single background process running is exactly the same, all app are the same. It might be a superstition but XES drains battery faster during phone calls. May this be possible?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sproduction999:
Hello everyone.

I am currently using the N910G.

When I dialled *#0011# to get to the "Service Mode" I got the following saying that "ASM MIPI DEVICE FAIL".

But I am able to make phone calls and use data. The signal strength is very weak compared with my other Samsung devices on the same carrier.

Is the weak signal strength due to the "ASM MIPI DEVICE FAIL"?

Please help.

There is no info on where to get parts or how to replace.

Also this issue can be software related to efs or csc corruption!

I don't have any signal and I have the same problem and error code. Mine just happened when the battery drained and shut down. I have an other device tho(J5 2015). Did you fix it?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jim50361:
Hi,

I have same problem with my N910G after i've installed Stock Rom ( INU) few days ago.

Till now i can't attach my SIM CARD into my phone, cause it will suddenly dead when its looking for signals or 4G data, and the phone feel overheat... I think its a PA chip problem..??

I'm sorry if i can types in English well... ? but i hope someone in this forum have a solutions about N910G problems...

Thx bro :good:
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rometheus:
The way I fixed it was..

Hi,

My problem was a bit different because it shows this sign on the notification bar that no service is available. Althought I fixed it, I am not sure if it will fix it for you too. Might be a different component or chip. I'm not going into detail here with my problem and my solution because I posted it already in the J5 forum and I will link it too, but basically what I did to fix it was to heat up the FEmid component. Before tempering with your device I suggest you make sure that it's completely a hardware issue. Also look for the pictures of the FEmid component for your device aswell. They should be on the site I found them (again look at my thread).

I hope you will fix your issue and I'm sorry for late respond.

I know we can change the shortcuts, but I found a great icon pack I applied to my homescreen and drawer, but I'd love to apply it to the lockscreen as well. Any ideas? I'd like to stay with the stock lockscreen if possible but I'm open to trying other lockscreens as long as they work with fingerprint unlock. TIA!

Anyone else having issues with apps crashing regularly? It seems to have become an issue after my stock Verizon OTA 1.19.605.22

When an app gives me the "Unfortunately xxxx has unexpectedly stopped working" message I've deleted cache and cleared memory, even re-installed. No luck

Any other ideas?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] Nv1dia:
I think you should probably inform people of whether or not this method your working on requires no OTA to have been taken. I know a lot of people have been holding off, and other have been upgrading ASAP
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] DarkFlasher:
This is true. I literally gave up on hope for root two days ago and took the plunge. Fingers crossed! It's great to know that there are devs that go above and beyond to bring us root!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] rdeets:
Is this just root or did you actually get the bootloader unlocked? Don't get me wrong, root by itself would be amazing, but I dream of being able to slap an AOSP ROM on this device.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] hella356:
I've been looking to replace my 3 year old, battered, yet trusty and still excellent S4, and the S7 has been the only worthy phone which checks enough boxes in terms of features and physical size, but without root I won't do it. Perhaps Samsung will be getting some business from me after all. Ideally, unlocked bootloader would be the preference, but rooted stock will give me enough of what I need. Any idea if this would work on the standard, non-Edge S7?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] brendan802:
F@ck yeah looking great

Root would be good enough for me. I don't really care about loading ROM's at this point. S7 has been sitting in the box since I got it, waiting for root.

Finally looks like good things are coming. Much appreciated and looking forward to rooting my s7
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] Binary100100:
I'm still a bit skeptical but to be honest at least he's given some kind of proof. We shouldn't be bugging him for any information since we all know that Samsung is reading and doing everything that they can to stop this from happening. Let's keep it on the down low and just wait to see what gets developed. I would like to know if Samsung Pay still works, if we can flash a custom recovery, if root sticks after a reboot, etc but if the OP reveals too much... Samsung might get wise. Smartest thing here is to keep it to a small group for testing and then go from there. Rest of us just need to be a little patient.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] idler1984:
Not yet, we are working on it. But I have to say there is no way to defeat dm-verity at this moment thru kernel exploit.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] Endlessz:
Ive been watching this with eager eyes as maybe if this works out my s7active is next.

But my noob question is, when you guys say temp-root Im guessing its root until the phone restarts or dies and goes through dm-verity again? (although this is not a full function root) Am I correct is this assumption?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] VirusZer0:
That is correct. So there are a lot of things you can do, but a ton you still can't do. Time will tell which direction this will go.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] Endlessz:
Huh, well thanks! That being said even temp-root would be fantastic for a lot of things. Even if this is successful, my port will be a long way behind :/ but hopefully this will progress!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] Zorachus:
That's what I'm wondering. This thread 19 pages long, and still just speculation, and blah, blah, blah. Is root truly coming to the T-Mobile S7 Edge ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] pantmunu:
Here is what I know or atleast what I think I know. The op of this thread has successfully gained temproot. It's true. He is a well known dev. [MENTION=4287865]Sunderwear[/MENTION] thank you for you hard work. But it won't be published as it has a few bugs and you know how people are gonna react with all the negatives and what not. He wants to fix all those issues before he publishes it to the general public. Now there is another tjread where this guy is working on the bootloader unlock on sprint s7 edge. Now I can't confirm the legitimacy of that said unlock method, although the pics he posted looked legit .

It is getting kind if confusing with different threads and all that and as much as I would like to have an unlocked bootloader and perm root, I think we all should give these devs some space to work accordingly and I would also live it if the devs just post info only after its properly achieved as it would just make things more confusing to all the peers here in these threads. This is in no way meant to disrespect the devs. Just a suggestion as people seem to expect too much in too less time for something's that's being done free of cost(bounty is something else).

Let's just move on till the devs finalise what they are working on.

Have a great day.

Thank you brotha, you're single handedly the reason I keep my s6-edge
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] ohap:
All this is is eng kernel with unsecured adb . These files have been out for weeks for people that fix phones ..... there will be no custom kernel, Roms or full su . Bootloader will still be locked ! . Also I really hope no one releases these files as most of us have paid a small fortune for them or used are gspn access to get them ........
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] pantmunu:
Didn't mean to thank you, but can you be a bit more clearer and a bit more clearer why no one should release it just coz some of u paid a small fortune. Man that sounded so selfish of u, but correct me if I am wrong.

People are begging for root. Literally. And you come in here with all this talk. If you don't have anything to contribute or any positive feelings towards the people working it, please don't post.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] ohap:
These files are confidential Samsung files not for public. And as XDA rules not allowed! . If you have gspn access you will have these files and allowed to have them . So there you go !

---------- Post added at 05:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:23 PM ----------

Also I'm letting ever one know the reality . So wake up people ! Like I said This wouldn't let you have custom Roms , custom kernels, or full su binary root ! It is useless to you !
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] pantmunu:
So Samsung sends you confidential files and you think XDA rules don't allow us to root it using those said "confidential" files.

I don't get it . I don't get anything you are saying right now ..some one shed me some light please.

Why the feck would Samsung send you "confidential" files and why the feck aren't we allowed to use it . That means every root that has been achieved in the past is illegal and all the devs and users should be arrested. My, oh my !!

Why? have we got full working Root without knox Counter trigger... No!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] CVertigo1:
If what [MENTION=2461375]ohap[/MENTION] is saying is correct about the engineering kernel, then we would basically be stealing factory Samsung files to root each device. I'm pretty sure stealing is against XDA rules.

I'd also be pretty upset if I paid a ton for an authorized repair dealer fee for these files and then someone gives them away to anyone who wants them.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] AKW:
While [MENTION=2461375]ohap[/MENTION] said it with as much douchebaggery as he could muster, if what he said is indeed correct, then I'm assuming the best we could possibly hope for from this method is a temp root, but that's still better than nothing, and it may open the door to other possibilities, using other vulnerabilities discovered by having temp root. From where I'm sitting, I still don't see any reason to completely write this off at this point.

---------- Post added at 07:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:09 PM ----------

No, but he rooted a phone that Samsung doesn't want rooted, that's why. He and other devs are working on it. Stop acting entitled.

Plus, even if we do have a full working root, there's still a pretty high chance that it'll involve tripping KNOX, so if you're holding out for a root that won't, I'd move right along if I were you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] MortimerR:
I remember reading that the HTC M9 took almost a year to get S-Off, so I'm pretty confident that perm root will come for the S7. It's just a matter of time.

In the meantime though, my issue is, I've only ever owned 2 Android devices. One I've lost, and the one I have now, a Moto X 1st Gen, is locked down completely. I only have temp root on it, that has so far proven useless.

Are there any guides or anything on flashing roms, working with recoveries. What's the best way to learn this stuff?

Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] dredq:
Buy a different phone and play around with it. I had an LG G2 that I learned huge amount regarding ROMS and recoveries.... You can buy one cheap at this point and they are very hard to brick.
