[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] kennedyd013:
Had the Nexus 6P - but even with Franco kernel and normal use battery life wasn't long enough. Saw the release of the S7 Edge unlocked which was great so I went and picked it up from best buy last night. Big reason is the monthly update cycle and keeping everything patched from a security standpoint without the Verizon bloat and slow release cycles.

Went to check the patch level and saw "Android security patch level: May 1, 2016". Checked for updates and are none.

Anyone else experiencing this? Appears to be missing June for sure and the newly released July security patches.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Alaris:
Yeah mine has the same update. Does yours have the briefing feed on the left of your home screen? I noticed mine doesn't like the carrier ones do.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] kennedyd013:
Same here..

Yep - same with me - no briefing feed when you swipe left - nothing there.

Wonder whats happening - would hope Samsung provides updates to their own phone.. ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] gtg465x:
I'm guessing it's because the phone just came out that they haven't released an update with the latest security patches yet. They probably have to set up their update servers for this new phone and a bunch of other behind the scenes stuff to get updates rolling. I would assume that it will get something within the next couple weeks and then continue to keep up with the other variants.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] 44alexsmith:
Does this variant of the S7 Edge have an unlocked bootloader?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] kennedyd013:
No unlocked bootloader - just not tied to an individual carrier i.e. verizon, etc. with the extra bloatware.

Still no updates yet to the SM-G935U.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] kennedyd013:
Ended up returning it and going back to my Nexus - no updates really sucks.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] JonandRoid:
Has anyone figured out how to get briefing on the left screen. I used that a lot and i can't get it to work. Even went to the play store and Samsung store, got briefing but it won't let me enable it on the home screen settings...?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Deleted member 5747731:
I've gone round and round with Samsung support about this particular unlocked device. The bottom line is that they are saying OTA updates for these devices might not be available because those are normally pushed through the carrier. They suggested to use their Smart Switch tool to apply updates. Even though this is a terrible idea and they should use OTA (with the invention of non-carrier WiFi these days :rolleyes:), I checked using this tool and surprise... there were no updates available.

I'll spare everyone the entire conversation, but this is how it ended:

"We understand. If you have an unlocked the latest updates for firmware and security can be done through Smart Switch. If you have checked for an update using Smart Switch and there aren't any currently available, we couldn't speculate on when that may change. In many cases this wouldn't be delivered OTA because OTA updates are normally pushed by carriers. Unlocked devices may not be able to get updates directly from the carrier currently being used. ^Jay"

Mine just updated today with the August 1st security patches. If had to guess, they waited until the Olympics were over since they handed these unlocked devices out to every athlete in attendance and they didn't want them receiving updates during the event.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] gtg465x:
Hopefully now that the unlocked models have received their first update, they will continue to get regular updates at the same time as other variants.

just checked for update - 164.13 mb ) ( g935v flashed to g935u)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] kennedyd013:
Interesting

Thanks for posting this one, thats good to hear. I wonder if they will proceed further. Good to hear Samsung's infrastructure will support updates in the future. I wonder if its only for security patches or if they will do incremental updates to OS as well, like Android N for example.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] JonandRoid:
Just got this tonight. I didn't have automatic update turned on but I checked and this showed up. Idk if i should do it or not.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] y2k1ltd:
I'm on T-Mobile with the SM-G935U. I got the update a few weeks ago and now it shows the Aug 1,2016 Android security update.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] JonandRoid:
As far as root and bootloader unlock should i not do the update or just go for it?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] PapaDocta:
Can the sm-g935U be flashed using DFS Tools? Does these codes bring up the diag menu?

##3424#

Can someone please try those codes and see if the diag menu shows.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] sangandongo:
Those codes don't bring up anything. Neither does *#0*# - I'm still on the damned May 1, 2016 Security update and it doesn't seem to think I need one.

hi all..

I recently upgraded my imate jam untouched rom to taxist's rom with radio 1.13 from dutch T-mobile... installed the rom with all the updates and fixes.. the upgrade went well, but there's only 1 glitch.. after I receive a phone call and switch off the phone, it will turn itself on again after about 30 secs.. this is highly annoying since more the once the phone redialed the last number while it was in my pocket... what is causing this? how can I fix it?

thanks..

[Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bennettj1087:
Trying to upgrade my ZE551KL to Marshmallow but I've hit an issue. I'll recap all the steps I went through today and then the error I'm getting:

Started the day with firmware 763

Took a backup with TWRP

Updated FW to 1106, 1234 and 1531 in sequence in order to prepare for update to Marshmallow

Took one more backup with TWRP

Attempted update to MM using download from ASUS, manually initiating from recovery, got the error below

Attempted update to MM again using the notification prompt after booting phone with update file on SD card (per ASUS' instructions), got the same result, below.

The error text is this:

Can't install this M package (Tue May 17 23:05:50 CST 2016)
L less than 20160426 build (Tue Dec 1 17:16:17 CST 2015)
E:Error in /sideload/package.zip
(Status 7)
E: fota_return_code 409

It seems this error typically means that the current Lollipop version is old and needs to be updated to the latest before trying to update to MM. I've validated in the About screen that my firmware version is indeed 1531 so I'm not sure what else I need to do.

I apologize if this question has been answered elsewhere. I hunted around for a while on this forum and using Google and didn't find anyone that seemed to be in this same situation.

Thank you for the help!
[Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] murat124:
did you try with the stock recovery.img of 1531?

I had the exact same problem the only thing worked with TWRP was to use the back2stock method.

[Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bennettj1087:
Well I never actually flashed TWRP, I just booted it using fastboot each time I needed it. Does flashing the OTA updates update the recovery or do I have to do that manually?
[Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] murat124:
I got the exact error you are getting with original recovery or TWRP. The only difference is that I was using MM and deleted the OS by mistake so I could not reflash official MM . back2stock method was the only way. Now I have TWRP, official MM via back2stock and root at the same time.

I am sure more expert members can give you better advice.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bennettj1087:
Does back2stock require a full wipe? I was hoping not to have to do that...
[Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hacksdump:
Worked in my case when I updated to latest lollipop firmware available.

(Actually I never installed the complete firmware, just flashed

and

for the latest lollipop firmware available and marshmallow FW installed like a charm, though I'd suggest you install the complete lollipop framework)

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Herdo:
I tried to change the phone to the original rom and in the middle of the process it failed and a screen with a message appeared saying "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again.". I saw some videos saying that you can enter the download mode and fix it with odin but I can't enter. Also I read that if you can't enter the download mode is because of the bootloader, I found a rom with the PIT, PDA, CSC, BOOTLOADER and PHONE files but the problem is that when I plug it to the pc it doesn't even recognize the phone, not even a message saying that windows couldn't recognize it and I have all the drivers installed or the typical sound that the pc makes when you plug something in the usb port. I don't know what to do.

Hey guys,

Have been using the yoga tab 2 1050F for quite some time and so far so good.

I'm using it mainly in bed. Got the notification volume set to zero, and indeed - all notifications are mute.

... except for the low battery crazy loud buzzer.

This can turn on in the middle of the night and there is no way to turn it off!!

Anyone has any idea? I searched all around the menus, couldn't find anything :eek:

Any Idea what can I do?

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] cripwalk:
If you are like me there are many times when you launch TomTom but you do not have any sound because your phone was on vibrate when it was launched or the volume on your phone was set too low to hear the voices. Well after some searching I came across this program on an Axim forum that will automatically turn your volume up when you launch TomTom and will turn it back to its original level when you quit TomTom. This works perfectly on my Kaiser.

Since we have internal GPS you will probably want to disable the bluetooth option in the configuration file.

You can find the thread here:

http://aximsite.com/boards/gps-talk/140969-tomtom-6-volume-override-loader.html

If you do not want to register I also attached the same file.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] fun_key:
Wow, this is deadly intersting, thanks for your share I ll have a closer look into it
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] demione:
This is big news for me -- I always run my Tilt in vibration mode and I've given up with all the fuss of turning on the sound with TomTom anymore.

When TomTom is launched via the loader, I still get the 'No Sound' icon in the lower left hand corner of the map area. However, When I increase the volume (via slider wheel) the sound does indeed come on.

Not perfect, but a hell of a lot better than before!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] gogol:
If the DATA CONNECTION is active, you will get that issue.

So, check your DATA CONNECTION before turning on TomTom.

You dont need that prog.

:)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] cripwalk:
I just tested this and you are right. That is a strange bug but it is good to know, however I use direct push so my data connection is always active so this program is still very helpful for me. For me the whole point is to just launch Tom Tom and be good to go. Disabling my data connection each time would be a hassle.
[Verizon LG G4] Almighty1:
Using Android Lollipop 5.1 (build 13b) except the My Verizon app was updated on June 24, 2016 which would just close after loading so I tried to use application manager to uninstall updates for My Verizon which resulted in it deleting the entire My Verizon folder under /system/priv-app even though I managed to extract that folder with the apk using Diskinternals Linux Reader. So I have the following questions:

Is there a way to restore the apk and the folder so it has the original date/time stamp as I basically zipped the file.

Also, does anyone know in the standard home launcher, is My Verizon actually directly listed as a app or is it in the Verizon folder? Thanks!

So I am having an issue with photos on my phone. Whether its a screen shot, a camera photo, etc. I have issues with the file getting corrupted and just not opening. This has happened a few times when saving directly to the SD card, so I switched the camera storage location to the phone itself and it still seems to be happening. Anyone else experience this? Is there another setting somewhere that I have not discovered?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] merkk:
I've got the dual sim S7 edge and next to every single txt message, send and received, it displays a little blue sim card icon with the number 1 on it. I understand this might be useful if i was actually using 2 sim cards. But i'm only using 1. Does anyone know if there's a way to turn off that icon? It's not a huge deal, but i just find it annoying seeing that icon repeated over and over for every msg sent or received.

I have not rooted the phone or anything.

[OnePlus 3 Accessories] sn0warmy:
Today I received the LK Ultra [Slim Thin] Scratch Resistant TPU Case. My initial impressions of the case are very good. The case fits very snuggly and adds noticeably less bulk to the phone compared to the Tudia Ultra Slim Arch case I was using previously.

Pros:

- All the cutouts are spot on and the headphone jack has enough room to easily plug in both sets of headphones I've tried (OnePlus Icons, Beats Studio).

- The front lip of the case hugs the edges of my Pleson tempered glass screen protector perfectly, leaving no gap around the edges.

- The back of the case protrudes slightly above the camera, providing more camera protection than the Tudia Slim case, which was flush with the back camera.

- All the buttons provide plenty of responsiveness and have more of a "click" than they did in the Tudia case.

- Due to the slimmer design, the phone feels much better to hold in this case than the Tudia Slim case I previously tried.

Cons:

- As you'll see in the below pictures, the front lip of the case protrudes just slightly past the tempered glass screen protector (which is 0.33mm thick). So it's safe to assume that with under 1mm of coverage over the bare screen, this case won't protect the screen well against a fall face down.

- The case has a glossy finish all the way around. While I do prefer the front lip and sides to be glossy, I'd rather the back of the case had a matte finish to it. In the summer months it doesn't make much of a difference but when it gets cold, phones with a full gloss finish tend to become more slippery.

Overall, I really love this case and I plan to continue using it for the foreseeable future.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lecorbusier:
There is either some agent on the touchscreen, fungus or bacteria in between touchscreen and display, or degradation(probably also fungus or bacteria) in the organic layer of the display. Only in the first case there may be another cure than replacing the display unit. By holding it towards a light source in the right angle, you should be able to tell whether the spots are on the surface or below. Then try to clean with glass/tft/plastic cleaner.

In the nineties i got an emergency light with a light emitting organic foil and a 16 year warranty. After a few months it developed some little dark spots like these, which grew within weeks till half of the foil was no longer glowing. I then dumped the thing, warranty or not.

Extreme air humidity or water damage will increase the chance, that this has biological reasons.

Can you guys list your battery voltages and temperatures of your exynos and battery during use and idle for me so I can see what the hell is wrong with my phone. You can use AIDA64 if you don't already have an app you like.

I left my phone in a very moist very hot bag by the pool. Afterwards for about a day and a half it wouldn't turn on. Then it now uses about 1 percent of the battery every 1 to 2 minutes. Maybe 5 minutes per percent while idle.

I'm trying to pinpoint whether the soc is damaged or whether I can just replace the battery. Thank you guys in advance.

So how about:

Temperature of exynos and battery during use while charging.

Temperature of battery and exynos idle

Voltage of battery at 100 percent

Voltage of battery at less than 3 percent

Hello all,

Please can someone point me in the direction of some info on radio ROMs.

I have your answer: If you are running a custom ROM, do not flash OEM VZW firmware under any circumstances. Any of it. Not the bootloader, not the modem, nothing.

I am very lucky that I got it to work again without hardware damage.
