[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weegert:
I upgraded my sm-n915t T-Mobile Note Edge to Marshmallow 6.0.1 (N915TUVU2DPE3) a few days ago and a few things don't work on the newer firmware. I would like to go back to the Kit-Kat firmware 4.4.4 (N915TUVU1ANK3), but everything I have tried doesn't work to go back to 4.4.4.

First I tried wiping everything except the external sd card through TWRP and restroing a 4.4.4 nandroid backup, but this causes a bootloop.

Then I tried downloading N915TUVU1ANK3, going into download mode and flashing through odin but this always fails, giving the error

<ID:0/003> FAIL! (Auth)

<ID:0/003>

<ID:0/003> Complete(Write) operation failed.

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

I read about flashing the bootloader first so I put the aboot.mbn, MPM-HLOS.bin, rpm.mbn, sbl1.mbn, sdi.mbn, and tz.mbn files from the 4.4.4 firmware in a .tar file and tried to flash it using odin 3.09. This also failed.

Did the 6.0.1 firmware upgrade or lock the bootloader so I can't return to 4.4.4? And if it did, is there a way to downgrade the bootloader?

Or am I doing something wrong?

Thank you for your help!

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RoseBunny87:
Last night, my wifi just stopped working, it won't enable. When I go to advanced I am sometimes able to turn on the wifi, but it just continuously says turning on but won't enable, and sometimes it's just totally greyed out. I also had some problems today connecting to mobile data services as well, and I don't know if that's related.

I've tried a hard reboot (but it just comes up saying no command...), I've tried restarting it a million times... The only thing I haven't tried is a factory reset, because I am abroad using google fi and I am worried that I will have to set up my project fi again and I can't connect to a tower in the USA. (I am not sure if that will even happen, but I won't be back in the USA for a good few months so I don't want to risk it)

My phone says it updated yesterday, which I assume has caused this wifi problem (or a really big coincidence), but I can't find any information online about it.

I run the stock rom, it's not rooted, I have had no problems with any other things besides this.

Is anyone else experiencing this, or has experienced this before? Do you have any suggestions on how to resolve it?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyzn:
It sounds like you are experiencing the same problem as everyone who forgot to update their vendor image after flashing the OTA. Had you been rooted, the simple fix would have been to flash the the MTC19X vendor image. With unrooted phone, I got nothing. The only possible solution would be a factory reset and to download and install the OTA again.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RoseBunny87:
I don't touch anything or mod anything on my phones. The phone updates itself and as long as I am not running any custom roms I don't see why they wouldn't have a complete update that basically just spoon feeds my phone. Do you know if factory reset would reset my project fi?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blitzkriegger:
I believe factory resets wipe the /data and /cache partitions of the device. All apps installed in /data are deleted, while apps in /system like project fi will have all its setting reset.

It's easy to resolve the iasue if your rooted, but since you aren't the next to last step you may try would be doing a network settings reset. Go to Settings>Backup and Reset>Network Settings reset. Just make sure that you are aware of your cellular data settings so you can set thing back up after the reset.

By just adding following keys to the registry will get you a nice 'wireless' today item that show Network name/status, WiFi name/status as well as Bluetooth status. Confirmed to work on AKU2 ROMs

[XDA Assist] bart1822:
Hopefully this isn't too big a question.

My phone just did this all on its own, I was just browsing the web with it. Just running whatever was on there from Verizon and HTC, not rooted or anything.

Now all I can do is get to the fastboot menu, and can do a few things there. I just tried to go to hboot then factory reset, this after trying a lot of things, and it didn't work.

It's connected to my computer, it seems to be recognized, at least by "fastboot devices" but not by "adb devices".

It shows as "***LOCKED***" and "S-ON". Everything I've found that talks about changing those requires going into the settings, setting developer mode and or usb debugging. I can't see how to do that if I can't get into the OS.

Am I screwed?

Thanks for any assistance.

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J4G3D:
I have a Z3 which i want to root, not to use custom roms on it. I want the stock rom as i have no issues with that, but i simply want deeper access of the phone.

It is a:

Z3 d6603

on:

6.0.1

firmware:

23.5.A.0.575

I have already tried all the one click root option apps and windows programs without success. Other tutorials on here all seem to be for other firmware versions of the phone.

Also if it is possible to root it, will just rooting it lose my data? i think not, but i just need to make sure.

I have read you must downgrade it to 4.4.4? then root?, is there not a easier method than this? or likely to be a easier method (such as with one click root) in the very near future?. I have so much data that i really dont want to back it all up and remember what apps i had, to go through this processes. All i want to do is root, no roms involved.

Any help for a n00b?
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MaliBooCRO:
Kingsroot is confirmed to work but it does look very shady. Why is downgrading a problem? The whole process of downgrading, rooting and upgrading back to 6.01 takes less than an hour, depending on your internet speed.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J4G3D:
Kingroot didnt work. I am on 6.0.1 so i think it only works for previous android versions.

The hassle of downgrading then upgrading will delete everything from my phone i think. There is only so much you can backup, you cannot (that i know of) backup your apps or layout of the phone. Would take well over 1 hour just to do that when all i want is root access.

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] jiznon:
Hi everyone. I do not like the default DPI of the OP3. I'd like to change it with no issues, but so far my experience has been frustrating.

Changed DPI to 400 via build.prop edit. Resulted in camera issues (back-camera photos resulted in solid green images, Snapchat video would lockup phone.). Could not reset DPI or change to any other value. Had to reflash OOS 3.1.3 to fix.

Did some research. Heard a OP3 toolkit here on xda could change DPI without issue (I believe it just uses the adb method) . Used it to change to 400. Camera is fine, but I experience wonky icon sizing issues with widgets, icons on notification banners and Play Store, twitter photo previews/thumbnails are corrupt, and a few other little text size issues. Tried using the toolkit to return to default DPI but it simply doesn't change anything.

I then heard good things about Le DPI Changer so I tried it but it is unable to make any change.

Flashed OOS 3.2.1 but DPI is still stuck at 400.

So it looks like:

build.prop edit breaks camera.

adb method breaks random icon sizing, twitter thumbnails, etc.

cannot reset to default value or change at all.

Is it possible to change the DPI with NO issues? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

**EDIT: Seems to be solved!

:laugh: I think all is fixed! What I did:

Removed line from build.prop.

Wipe dalvik/cache.

REflashed full 3.2.1 ROM.

Wipe dalvik/cache.

Flashed SuperSU.

Wipe dalvik/cache.

Flashed Xposed.

Wipe dalvik/cache.

Reboot.

Added ro.sf.lcd_density=400 to build.prop.

Reboot.

Now icons are are correct size in Play Store, banners. Twitter thumbnails are not corrupt. Widget icons are correct size. AND camera works! Thanks so much!

I will report back is there are any lingering issues.

**EDIT 2:

Unfortunately, after updating to 3.2.2, and following the same steps, I have the broken camera/green photos issue again. This is ridiculous.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] _MartyMan_:
I read that adb method breaks things, did you use "adb wm density"? Oh, and i recommend the using of 440DPI! It's working for me on OOS 3.1.x-3.2.x - CM13. If adb isn't working, try to use Terminal emulator with the same command, or use TWRP Terminal emulator. If you can't change that, try factory reset (wipe everything except your Internal Storage, flash rom etc.) and check if the problem solved or not. Hope i helped ;)

Your DPI is stuck at 400 even after reflashing 3.2.1?

Try adding the build.prop line again with the 400 value. Reboot, then change it to whatever you want. And again 440 is perfect.

After I changed my DPI I ended up flashing 3.2.1 over again (dirty) to revert other changes I didn't like, my DPI however didn't change (strangely) and the build.prop line wasn't there.. so I re added it with the modded number and rebooted. Then deleted it, rebooted and everything went back to normal.

You might as well have started fresh from the get go with all the trouble you went through... For me anything lower that 360 DPI on a 5.5 inch 1080P pentile AMOLED screen looks low resolution specially the text. You can really notice the overall blurriness and gaps in between the pixels. LCD screens, and QHD and 4K AMOLED screens fare much better at DPIs lower than 360.

How did you go about changing your DPI ? I solved mine through a terminal editor. Are you rooted ?

---------- Post added at 03:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:20 PM ----------

Here's how I got my DPI change to work, now at 410 dpi with a working camera and no other issues that I've noticed:

You must be rooted.

Download " Material Terminal" by Yariskav Shevchuk.

Open the editor and type 'su' and hit enter.

then type 'wm density 400' (or whatever you want your DPI to be) and hit enter.

You should see everything instantly change as it overrides the system DPI instantly.

I usually reboot after that, but so far it's just what I needed and no camera issues.

Let me know if this works for anyone else...
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] tofuboi01:
I have noticed that you need to mount system in TWRP if you want to make changes in "/system", no need to reflash wipe each and every time to make a small change..

When I or my girl leave the main TV room to use the restroom or feed the dog, etc, is there a method or a 3rd party app that will allow the casted app (Netflix or HBOGo mostly) to still play on the phone while also casting to the TV?

Mirroring the screen is the only option I know of. You either cast or have to switching it from cast to on the phone.

Hello all and thank you for stopping by to assist me. I am trying to root my Verizon LG G3. I am not sure what all information you need so I am just going to post as much information as possible about my device below.

Hardware Version : Rev. 1.0

Android Version : 6.0

Kernel Version : 3.4.0-perf-gf128999

Build Number : MRA58K

Software Version : VS98546A

And that is all I can think of. I tried to OneClickRoot or whatever it is but it says my device is not supported. I tried to follow some Youtube Videos, but the all lead to "Do my survey, my links are legit, I promise" stuff so... I got no where.

Can anyone help lead me in the direction to getting my device rooted?

Also I see a lot about TWRP? Anyone willing to elaborate on what that is or if its something I want?

Edit: What I am trying to accomplish is a rooted device that I can (Hide My Root) on, and use an app such as LocationFaker to fake my location and allow me to play a location based game with a friend in another state.

Whenever I try to play the game without root it is unable to detect my location for says GPS Failed or what have you, I just want to trick it to thinking I am near my friend so we can play together.
[Verizon LG G3] jurington:
So the easiest way to root the g3 is to use the tot method that you can find here on xda. And tot back to 10B from there you can use stump root (that is also here on xda) and use brute force mode, it'll work on the g3 I've used it a whole bunch in mine. After that you can download twrp manager from he playstore and get twrp recovery installed. After that you can pretty much do anything you want. Flash a custom rom, flash xposed and I think if I remember right there was a module in there for location as for what you're seeking. Just make sure you read up on what bootstacks you need to flash when flashing different roms. You can soft brick yourself and can be a pain in the ass. So just read read read especially the flashing instructions.

This is good news! I'm in the same boat, wanting to know if I can root a VS985 running marshmallow.

Yes it is relatively easy when you tot back to 10B anything after that it starts to get harder to root and also install twrp recovery.
