[Sprint HTC One (M7)] coal686:
Try the one that came with the phone first. If it works, great! If not, use the latest one in the thread Iinked to in my guide.

As for bootloader to s-off with, the older ones can be done for free so I'd try with the one you have first. If you can't get it to work and you have to run the latest RUU, you can still get s-off using Sunshine, but it costs $25. Remember though that this device doesn't really NEED s-off to flash ROMs and such.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tmobilefan906:
I installed c++ and tried ruu...no dice...maybe I should reboot my PC after installing the cc++. Lol
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tmobilefan906:
Only reason I'd want to s off is to flash ruus from a diff carrier.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
Not possible.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tmobilefan906:
Oops. Didn't mean carrier. I meant diff ROM versions. Lol
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tmobilefan906:
This is my hboot and what happens when I wipe in recovery.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tmobilefan906:
Well...at least is was with "ace". I was able to flash Asia's ruu vs. Us...
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
You need to relock your bootloader for the RUU to work.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tmobilefan906:
Yea. I know all that. Lol. I'm not a newbie. Haha...I re unlocked it in hope of being able to flash a ROM via recovery. ROM just won't flash. And the prob isn't the ruu. Its the ruu .exe shutting down after accepting disclaimer.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tmobilefan906:
I just don't understand why the ROMs won't flash via recovery. That's the actual issue. I only wanna ruu if I can't flash ROMs. Ugh. So frustrating
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tmobilefan906:
I am beginning to think it has something to do with Superuser that's installed on it. Because every time I go to do any kind of factory reset ,a wipe or install any ROM it always says that "install. Device don't appear to be rooted. "
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tmobilefan906:
I was right! I flashed SuperSU 2.46 then RR. Boiyaaah!! THANKS GUYS!!!!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tmobilefan906:
now i need to find a way to use att on it.. i put in my card, rebooted, and didnt get a screen asking for an unlock code or anything. i understand that you have to be on a sense rom to sim unlock. have you guys found a way to use a foreign sim card?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
AFAIK you cannot connect to domestic carriers even if sim unlocked.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tmobilefan906:
Can u please verify what ROMs I can flash on here besides m7spr? Here is an example on cm site

There is m7 and m7ul

Thanks again
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
The roms you flash need to be Sprint compatible...M7 and M7ul are most likely not compatible with a Sprint device that's why they are listed seperatly.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tmobilefan906:
OK thanks...but what variants are feasible?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tmobilefan906:
If I s-off this, what ruu's can I flash? I want to have an att or T-Mobile ROM so I can use with my sim. Since this phone is a gsm compatible device, is this feasible?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
Sprint devices can only flash sprint RUU's and as Far as I know you cannot use a Sprint device on domestic carriers.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tmobilefan906:
OK. Thanks
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tmobilefan906:
What ruu has the 1.54 hboot?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
I don't believe the Sprint M7 had an hboot 1.54, why do you ask?

Sent from a Glade Plugin. ;)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tmobilefan906:
Cuz I wanna s off and I hear u can do it free with a hboot lower than 1.54... Or is it 1.53?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
Well you have to be s-off in order to go backwards.

Sent from a Glade Plugin. ;)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tmobilefan906:
What would happen if I tried? Lol. I'm on 1.6 hboot
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
Try to RUU backwards? It would fail.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tmobilefan906:
Yea. I know. But could I try?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] coal686:
You can try anything you want. It's your time and effort.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tmobilefan906:
OK. What ruu do I use to get hboot -1.54? Thanks.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] alray:
You can't downgrade your hboot if your phone is S-ON, Only with S-OFF. So trying to downgrade hboot in an attempt to achieve S-OFF is a waste of time my friend (the RUU will not flash) ;) .

And to confirm what was said before, you can't flash other variant RUU on a Sprint variant and even if it was possible, flashing, lets say an At&t RUU, will not make your phone ready to be used on the at&t network. The sim-lock data is stored on a partition that is not touched by the RUU so even after flashing one, your phone will still be locked to the same network. You'll need to sim-unlock and even after doing it you will not get full connectivity (forget about using LTE on a GSM network since the sprint LTE freq. is different).
[Verizon LG V10] veteranmina:
Has anyone started or has had issues with the V10 becoming progressively non-responsive?

My wife and I both have the V10, mine being recently replaced due to what looked like memory corruption as icons started showing as grey blocks randomly even after a restore from my pc. Hers is starting to exhibit multiple of the same issues plus more even after a restore from pc:

Not powering on requiring battery pull

No longer accepting double tap to wake/sleep

Icons starting to become grey blocks

slowness to responses

Phone calls are not coming through at times

Verizon has replaced my phone but the fact that hers is starting to show the exact same issues has me wondering if there is a bigger issue to these phones. My new phone has started to show the issues of double tap not responding, there is not an app that is causing wakelock or draining battery. I don't have unusual apps loaded on either phones and have tried going a few days fully stock and it is still exhibiting the issues.

If there is, is there anyway to get Verizon to move us out of these phones if it continues as I'm not going to have a phone that is going to constantly have issues.
[Verizon LG V10] Haxcid:
after they replace it 3 times you can generally negotiate a different model.
[Verizon LG V10] overclockxp:
My family's two V10s are starting to show their age. Okay, my wife's crapped out last week so it is definitely aged. The phone got really hot, drained the battery, and kept rebooting. Then it got locked into an eternal bootloop. The only way I got it to boot was to put it in the freezer. I had connected a cable to it and was able to get most of the data off running the cable out of the freezer to a laptop. I still have some other stuff to recover. Hopefully the freezer trick works again.

But now my V10 is having radio issues. It switches between 4G, 3G, and 1x constantly. I'll be in a location that I know has a 4G signal and pull out my phone only to see 1x. The other day it wouldn't find the GPS signal if it was plugged in. Time to backup my data and see if Vz will replace it.

Sad thing is that I declined the insurance coverage. So once my 1 year warranty is up I'll have to buy a new phone. Easy come, easy go.
[Verizon LG V10] 666syco:
You can still add insurance to the lines it's never to late. When one customer service rep says no hang up and call again and it doesn't hurt to play stupid and nice. For some reason they do what you ask if they feel smarter then you and I.

Sent from my XPOSED V10
[Verizon LG V10] Edde3d:
My v10 started running hotter than normal and my battery drain was more. I replaced the old battery with a new one and the problem seems to have gone away. In my case I think the battery was getting too hot and was making the phone run hot and unresponsive.

Kickin' it on my VS990
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] kakanski:
Hello all! This is the second time this has happened to me, I've rooted my phone for about a week, and then for some reason when I decide to restart my phone -- it no longer boots up. It is stuck at the t-mobile screen and vibrates for a bit then stops, I have booted in to recovery mode and tried wiping that cache, but to no avail.

Any help would be appreciated -- or even how I can backup my data would be great too.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] kdecoteau1:
Wah gwan! My T-Mobile S7 Edge running TekHD v2. To have your phone running very nicely, you need to download the APD8 fireware. Make sure everything on your phone running APD8. download the files from max on highonandroid, flash the tar file twice using modified Odin from max. Once boot up screen say custom, next step download and extract TekHD.rar file .there's a part in the file that operates like cmd, right click and let it do its thing. Make sure your phone is on and a low USB debugging.

---------- Post added at 10:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:43 PM ----------

Also this TekHD Rom is best for unlimited hotspot for Windows, Android and Mac. I have download about 20 more GB of files to make sure its good. The tutorial from max is good, the easiest way I see so far is to click on the root.dat in max files to add superSU. For TekHD click tekhd.bat. That was the easiest way after flashing the tar file. The hold process take 2 minutes once done right. I'm not a developer but a big Samsung Android fan. I have a Note 3,4,5 S6 Edge+ and S7Edge, I tried and tested many Roms at my own risk. Never had any problems. Make sure you always have the stock rom tar file for your device before any flashing any roms, is case something goes wrong you can start over.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] vtdrxx:
first of all this is an eng boot root, so expect some hiccups and proble.. before u root make sure u back up everything then odin back to stock then root or else u will run into problems
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] AKW:
You're going to have to ODIN back to stock. This seems to be happening to a lot of people (myself included) and a stock flash is the only way anyone has been able to recover. Flash all 4 files in ODIN simultaneously, but if you don't have a backup, try flashing the Home_CSC and see if it'll boot. I've heard reports that the Home-CSC file doesn't wipe your phone. If that doesn't work, then unfortunately you're going to have to re-flash, but this time use the standard CSC file, which will wipe your phone. Good luck.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] ph00ky:
I just had this happen for my second time and was stuck phoneless out of the house :/ I wish we could figure out the cause... Not sure if related, but my recovery has red text on the bottom "dm-verity verification failed"
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] qwewqa:
No, that is not related, dm-verity verification fails because recovery still checks dm-verity even though the kernel does not.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] KJThaDon:
Damn same thing just happened to me at work. Had to do factory reset...

When at that tmobile screen, hold down volume down + home button + power. It will reboot,and as soon as it does, switch volume down to vol up until it loads recovery to reset
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] rp3:
This happened to me also. Go to lockscreen and security options and disable automatic security updates.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] pawel30w:
I think it could be new firmware update from Google. I tried to install TekHD Rom after update to the newest APG1. And it hapened to me also. Stuck on Samsung screen with random weird vibrations.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] Sakuryu:
I can almost certainly say that the vibrate crash has something to do with the phone installing something behind the scenes. After getting the Amazon/Google/Samsung services multiple crash followed by the reset to the vibrating T-mobile screen I did a non-wipe ODIN, which works and works perfectly. What seems to not work though is re-installing root, it just leads back to the same screen, so I think Samsung is pushing something sneaky onto our phones probably through the security thing as mentioned.

---------- Post added at 01:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:40 PM ----------

TekHD Only works on PD8, it's mentioned in the thread.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] gaww:
Can't run that ROM on APG1. If you want to try it, you will have to ODIN PD8. There is a post in a thread in this section that shows how.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] wotan2525:
I just had this same thing happen on PG1. Using ODIN with all of the various parts and Home_CSC got me back in without having to wipe and everything survived. Going to try and re-root with the engineering boot image now that I made a decent backup. Would be great if someone smarter than me figures out what is updating/changing and causing this problem.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] rp3:
I said it on page 1: In settings, go to lockscreen, then security options and disable automatic security updates.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] wotan2525:
That might work to prevent this problem -- but what needs to be reverted once this problem starts? I can flash stock PG1 and if I use the (home_csc) it will fix the problem and not wipe my data.... but if I reflash the engineering bootloader it goes back to hanging at the tmobile screen.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] swaggyyd:
im stuck on tmobile screen, and it keeps vibrating, idk what to do
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] neno2323:
I haven't rooted but if your stuck just Odin back to stock.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] theratdude64:
I came to post that I'm having these issues as well, this is the second time it's happened to me.

The first time I had TEKHD on my Phone, and so with it constantly nagging to do a system update.

I figured when it did this the first time, it was because the update ran over my TEKHD side load "ROM" and corrupted. Ok , whatever, reloaded.

But now I'm just rooted, and stock ROM otherwise. Just happened to me again :(

Each time it's happened, I start getting "playstore has crashed" errors - dismiss and it comes right back. So I reboot, and then it boot loops and gets CRAZY hot. Man I've never been able to fry an egg on a phone quite like my S7 Edge...

Is there any light shed on what could be doing this? I may have to remain stock which makes me want to :crying: but I can't keep bothering my Work Admin's to unlock my Token account so I can re-register my same phone -

I shall try that home_CSC Flash when I get home though, hopefully I can recover it at least in a way to transfer token to my tablet or something.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] theratdude64:
posted that at work, I'm at home now. I tried to flash just the home CSC and that did not work, just booted into recovery with an error and wouldn't resurrect at all.

I shall try that disable auto updates thing though and see if it helps in the long run...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] Maurylucha:
you got a link for the home csc file you can send me I was good for about a month and a half and it finally happened to me as well and can confirm I was getting the play store/ google services errors right before the reboot and tmobile screen
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] FreedomLife:
I bought s7 edge new...a few days ago...

I bought him a Screen Protector puregear, simple a bad screen protector.

And I can not find a good screen protector, In the meantime, I'm not using my s7 edge, because it.

I anyway not love screen protector, so I thought maybe... I will use my s7 edge without a screen protector

Would be very happy to hear your opinions, worthwhile or not ?

If you can elaborate This will help me, thus I will learn more.

Thanks!!!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] xXxWOExXx:
I'm using it without one too, but I use the leather cover from Samsung(not the flip cover). Just as drop protection and because the phone is very slippery without one :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] loofn:
I've spent more than 50$ on screen protectors still haven't find anything that last longer than a week. Somes peeled off, somes have touch issues so i decided to just use my phone naked. The phone hold up surprisingly well for the past 2 months, not any scratches even when i did drop it twice and there were some dents on the benzel.

---------- Post added at 06:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:25 PM ----------

My advice is u should definitely buy a case since the phone is pretty slippery and the benzels are so thin that u might find ur fingers resting on the screen causing touch issues.

Screen protectors are all personal preferences. From what i know, it limit the beauty of the screen, harder to see in direct sunlight, and u cant use it underwater.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] drummerman:
Why not using it with a flip cover (but w/o screen protector)?

Best of both worlds, you can show the phone off yet it is protected all-round.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01DCGNH1W/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01GTNI076/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I have both. The leather one is sheer class (and better protection), the slim line one is form fitting with less protection (but still a helluvamore than not using anything).

Both make the phone look superb.

I have my s7e from since it came out, i found that my diamond bling scratches the screen when i put it on my ear so bought a screen protector but lasted 4 hours, im not fund of screen protectors i like my screen naked. Have hundreds of scratches now.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] QBerto:
who needs a screen protector? I've never used one since like 4 years and all my phones are exposed at least to dog bites (I'm a vet and the phone is always a curious thing for them), and never broke anyone

With the s7 edge I'm using it for three months and never used one, both crystals are like new, but I'm using a spigen case because samsung's sucks
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] J.Biden:
I don't use a screen protector or any protection at all, and my device (which I bought in March, shortly after its release) looks just fine. No scratches on the body, and I only have a teenie tiny scratch on the screen, which isn't bothering me. If you're the type of person who throws his stuff around, then I'd get some protection. If you're like me and you love using your devices naked, then go ahead and do that. Just DO NOT keep your phone in the same pocket with your keys etc. That will 100% scratch up your phone. Keep it generally far away from metal parts, including metallic zippers on jackets/hoodies/jeans!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] AKW:
I've had mine since before the official release (Tmo FTW) and I've never had a screen protector on it. I do use a Spigen black TPU case, but my screen has 0 noticeable scratches on it. You can find one or two if the screen is off and you're looking for them, but if the screen is on, you couldn't see them if you tried.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] shawnten:
i havent had a screen protector since day one and have to scratches on mine. still looks brand new
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] fguerra024:
I got a WriteRight flex screen protector (film style) from Staples in Ontario, Canada. Came with 2. First one is still on and doing well to stop simple scratches from car keys and such. It seems like there are no good options for glass protectors due to the edge. I usually would always use a glass protector + skin on body. This time i have a case that is banana-shaped to protector the screen if it falls face down and the film protector for minor scratch protection. Decent combo.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] flyinj54:
I tried multiple screen protectors and all of them were actual garbage because of the edge screen. I've been using mine without a screen protector for the last few months. It's just not worth it to me to Cripple the device and stop the enjoyment of using it because of a bad screen protector or because I'm worried about a small scratch. I've had good luck I've got a slight scratch that cannot be seen unless you're really looking for it hard after 2 months. Biggest thing is keep your keys and pens out of your pocket that your phone is in
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] dynospectrum:
No screen protector here. No problems ;]

Just like @ flyinj54 said, I keep my phone in my left pocket by itself. Keys and whatever else I put in my right pocket. As long as you do that and don't drop your phone you'll be good.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] 604al:
I tried going protector-less for a while and discovered a small scratch from somewhere. I'm very careful with my phone and hate scratches. After trying a vinyl skinomi wet install which kept on denting/imprinting, a few cheap glass ones, i've settled on the spigen plastic protector, which has been working great!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Esspee_London:
I too have spend nearly £50 on screen protectors, haven't found a good one yet, and so I now use my S7E without screen protector.

I have spend some fair amount of money on case though, I have a Noreve case, and a Piel Frama's SlimFrama case.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] 2ndcarpenter:
I did that for a while with only the Samsung Flip Wallet cover. It was fine. found Skinomi matteskin screen protector that wraps around the edges, I love it! it reduces glare and also keeps grease and fingerprints off the screen. It has almost a rubbery vinyl feel to it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] FreedomLife:
It doesn't bother you?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] chinhe:
Not that much. The scratches are not even visible when the screen is on.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] FreedomLife:
Many have written online, They see scratches only the screen is turned off

You not see to scratches When the Screen active?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] chinhe:
Yes i can confirm this. Even at screen off the scratches are barely visible, you can notice only if you look close to the screen. For me it really makes difference, i mean the screen is much clearer without protector because most protectors tend to absorb dirt being plastic(with all of my devices i used before never had protectors), much crispier and brighter. I dont know its just my opinion.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Beefheart:
It's really quite simple. Unless you want hairline scratches (or worse) within a couple of weeks you use a screen protector. No matter how careful you are, this is unavoidable simply from everyday use.

Personally, I use a Zagg HD Dry. I've had the same protector on my phone since the middle of March and it still looks virtually new (bar a few inevitable marks). And with my Spigen crystal cover, it's never curled up at the edges like a lot of people have complained about.

Bottom line for me (although I accept opinions vary), buying a phone worth over £600 then not protecting it with a cover and screen protector is madness.

Hey guys, I was running Maximum overdrive v1.0 and beastmode 56.8 kernel (no tweaks) when my phone starts freezing and rebooting.
