Your SOL on data. You can try SmartSwitch on PC but even then you'll need to approve the backup via the phone.

Original answer deleted. I'm a complete idiot. I should have checked but believe I was given incorrect information from my sprint sales person on location of reset. Sorry.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] NewHere92:
I turned off the phone many times.

Phone works fine, just the screen doesn't. I found a lot of forum posts for this problem it seems common...

I didn't root this phone.

Now, I finally know what's the hole for LMAO! What does happen if I poke it? Update: Hey, that hole is not used for resetting the phone. It's for noise reduction.

I don't think this will help on a broken screen anyway. :(
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] sekelink:
please dont put anything in that hole. This is not a reset button............... ITS A MICROPHONE and that tool its design to open the sim card bay.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] NewHere92:
Don't worry, I wont do that.

I'm so stuck here... and also I need to send this phone to T-Mobile! Right now I 'm using an iPad as a phone replacement. lol

Just wish I could save this data... :(
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] techsammy:
Is your screen experiencing this?

http://i.imgur.com/iOmtR2T.jpg

If so, it's a defective screen.

I got mine replaced already since it was under 30 days replacement guarantee. You can read more about it here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3359221

But the bad news is you won't be able to backup anything. I had to sacrifice a lot of stuff as well.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] NewHere92:
This is exactly what my screen does look like! And I did not only had problems with the screen, I wasn't able to get my carrier's settings automatically, I have problems with the charging, it won't display my phone number in the settings and also sometimes the camera app freezes. I installed the updates which didn't change anything. This new smartphone which doesn't even has a tiny scratch, never fall down is totally wrecked. Really disappointed about this "top high end" phone. I don't trust, that it will work after they "repeard it". I have it since release.

It's like really a huge amount of data... Of one app it is everything from 2 years (7GB)! There is no possibility to create a backup, you can just send the data to a new phone via WiFi that's all. If your phone breaks everything is lost.

I realized many app developers don't take enoughh care of backup solutions. :(

Yesterday the screen got back to life but just for a short moment :(
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] NewHere92:
So it seems like there is no way to get back this data...

Can I get back my WhatsApp backup at least? I was able to create a backup before the screen died. When I plug in the phone to PC I can see "Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge" in my explorer an that's about it. When I click on it there is no content to show.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] NewHere92:
I just got an idea how to enable the god damn USB debugging!

Can someone share here how to connect the device as a mass storage to PC (by screenshots please)!

I was just thinking, I can work my way to the Developer Options by taking screenshots but I need to access the media for this!

When I connect the device to PC and then click on Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge it's empty... There most be done something before.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] NewHere92:
You guys can call me a ****ing genius! I managed to install Teamviewer by taking screenshots and look at them on the PC (I set up the device as mass storage blindly) so I knew what to do next. It was still tricky but possible.

I'm recovering my data now.

Thanks to the Google voice app I was able to type in "Teamviewer"

Thank you anyway! :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] techsammy:
WTF bro! You seem to hack it pretty easily! :eek:

Wish you had done that before mine got replaced.

Now I have permanently lost my previous data :(
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] NewHere92:
It wasn't really easy dude... The most difficult was to make this damn thing work as a mass storage device. So I could finally have access to the data on the Windows Explorer.... I was just touching on the screen like a maniac!

But this is a way to do it guys. If you own a Galaxy S7 Edge I recommend to activate USB debugging and install Teamviewer quick support (Samsung version, there are different editions) just in case the screen breaks. lol I install Teamviewer on all my devices now...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] GuySmiles:
Hey! The same thing just happened to my phone an hour ago. Green grassy screen. It's terrible!

Ok, so what were the steps you took in order to get to where you can turn on USB debugging and backup your phone?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] NewHere92:
Well, what happens when you connect your phone to your Computer (USB)? If nothing, then you need to check connect the device as camera or mass storage, blindly! Which is kinda tricky... You need to pull down your notification bar and then select the USB options thing and in this menu which pops up you need to select camera or mass storage... But once you get that done, you're good to go! You will be able to take screenshots and view them on your computer instantly. You don't really need to care about USB debugging, you can just get Teamviewer Quick Support (for Samsung) that is really important, the normal version won't work!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] GuySmiles:
Thanks for the reply. It actually looks like my issue was much worse. My phone degraded pretty quickly, since I wrote my post. It got to a point that while I could type on my lockscreen, it wouldn't go past and enter the OS. I didn't even have a green screen anymore, the screen turned to an off black. At that point, I gave up and sent it in for repairs. I think the motherboard got fried.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] NewHere92:
Holy crap, I'm sorry to hear that. Mine was just working fine (except the screen). But I'm afraid it will happen again. I'm gonna freak out!

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peterrchoi:
It has been around 4 days since my phone fell into water. I put it into a bag of rice for several hours and even used one of those DryBox things. It still doesn't work, but apparently it still charges off of my Qi wireless charger (indicated by the light on the charger itself) and possibly my regular micro USB (not sure about this one, but just guessing since the wireless charger seems to be working). However, it doesn't seem to be turning on; the phone doesn't show that it's charging like it normally should if it were turned off and charging. the LED lights don't work either, and there's no sound coming on.

The only Samsung support center in my area doesn't know what they're talking about and they're less knowledgeable about their products than a 10 year-old.

My question is, would it be a smart idea to take the phone apart myself since the warranty is void anyways, or should I send it off to a different support center if possible? Or any other recommendations?

This phone has my Puzzle & Dragons account on it. If you understand what that means... I hope you take pity on me.

Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you guys!

OnePlus AMA going on over @ Reddit, there is no 32GB model coming.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/4o308u/oneplus_ama_oneplus_3dition/

as all three models are sporting the Snapdragon 820 you will most likely find it is a ROM lock to certain bands and so flashing the EU/Asia ROM will open up Band 3, Otherwise CM13.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnnycr:
Hi all,

Any help I can get would be greatly appreciated. I have a Sprint HTC One M7 that was previously rooted. Currently it is relocked with S-On, but at some point an OTA update was downloaded and now my phone keeps restarting itself and boots to this "android is upgrading..." screen. It keeps doing this loop over and over. It restarts itself, and then goes to this "android is upgrading..." I've spent hours in the forum this afternoon and I've tried numerous things and nothing seems to be working. Everything I've tried keeps giving me errors. At this point I would simply like to go back to the stock ROM and have a working phone. Can anyone help?

FYI...

I've tried using the .exe method from an RUU, but that isn't working because when it reboots to bootloader at the very beginning of the process my phone boots to android and I get the "android is upgrading..." message.

I've tried extracting the rom.zip and sideloading it, but I can't sideload because installing the TWRP.img recovery fails every time.

I've tried a factory reset and that fails. Again, I get the "android is upgrading..." loop.

Basically, everything I've done to run RUU fails because my phone reboots to android instead of rebooting to the bootloader, and everything I've tried to work around that problem fails.

I'm currently running 6.23.651.7 and I'm trying to flash 6.23.651.10.

Again, any help would be massively appreciated. I'm desperate...
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
You can't flash a rom.zip extracted frin a ruu.exe using TWRP, it must be flashed using fastboot with the phone booted in RUU mode.

Holding power and volume down doesn't work? This should get you in bootloader mode. If your phone can't boot to a stable bootloader there is nothing you can do. Once in bootloader there are many options to unbrick your phone.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnnycr:
I first tried flashing the rom.zip using fastboot, but when the phone is supposed to display the HTC logo screen my phone just reboots and goes back to the "android is upgrading..." page.

I can get into bootloader when I hold power and volume down, but I haven't been able to successfully do anything from there. I tried flashing TWRP so that I could attempt to sideload a ROM, but I got an error when flashing TWRP.img.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donkeykong1:
Is your bootloader still relocked? If it is, you can't flash custom recovery. The only thing you can do is run RUU in that state
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnnycr:
Well, I was just going to try and do this again, but now my PC can't even find it when I run "fastboot devices." I have the SDK and ADB driver installed, so I don't know why it can't find it all of a sudden.

I can't install the RUU by running the .exe, because when I do and it gets to the "waiting for bootloader..." screen my phone reboots and loads android and goes to the "android is upgrading" screen. So I need to flash the RUU via fastboot, but now my PC isn't recognizing my device in CMD...

Okay... so I finally got adb and fastboot working again. When I run "fastboot oem rebootRUU" the phone reboots to Android and goes to the "android is upgrading..." screen.

Update: So... I was able to successfully use adb and fastboot to unlock my HTC One again. I then tried to flash a custom recovery via fastboot, but I kept getting "FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)". I tried flashing TWRP, CWM, and stock HTC recovery and got the same failed message for each one. I'm just trying to find a way to break this stupid boot loop... HELP!

Update: So, my phone even restarts itself when I boot into safe mode... not good. Can anyone help me out?

it wont be a issue to use it, just will lack in some frequencies/bands which ultimately give it poorer reception and speeds

Ive tried to flash all stock roms available, no sucess. I got "Could not find 'META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary' in the zip file" error. And its not because of the file, ive tried many of them.

At bootloader it shows my deviceas unlocked / with modified software status / and basebad as not found. When I connect a USB cable it charges and Im able to acess SD cards into recovery.

Ive received a "no OS installed" when tried to reboot, I dont know what Ive done to not appear anymore. But when I try to rebbot, nor it just come back to booatloder. The log is something about kernel. I tried to download some kernels but didint help.
