[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Liam213:
But the International firmwares come with the "Sim Manager" built in to support dual sims and the UK firmware doesn't come with that.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] p2kin:
That depends on whether your hardware supports multiple sim or not. Your firmware will automatically enable "sim manager" based on hardware.

Just to confirm you, my build no is exactly same as yours so underlying firmware is same for both of us, but my hardware has dual sim capability, so I see that "sim manager".

Here's a screenshot of my build attached.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lruihao:
I am unable to access recovery mode in my Samsung Note 4 Intl' Version.

Whenever I tries to boot into recovery mode, the Andriod robot Icon in the center just kept blinking with 3 seconds interval, and it just keeps repeating.

I tried ways to unbrick this soft bricked phone but to no avail. I wish to fix this so I can install another ROM on my phone.

I tried flahsing via ODIN too. It is a pass. However, booting into recovery mode still end up with the same results.

Please assist. Thank you so much.

When i try to copy files to my USB external storgae, the app tells me that i need to give it permission. i selected the USB storage but it fails, and Total commander says wrong location, even i choosed it correctly. When i press cancel, it ask me to re-mount as read/write as root and it works. Only Total Commander can do that, but it keep asking for permission.

My device is running Lollipop 5.1.1 with latest SuperSU

do you mind checking my platform.xml in attachment that was located in /system/etc/permission/ ?

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] basharno1992:
Hello,

I'm trying to install a custom rom on my note 4.

I rooted successfully, and installed TWRP through flashify.

First issue I ran into is that the phone got stuck in a bootloop after installing TWRP. All fine I said, it's cool since I want to flash a ROM anyway.

I downloaded the ROM for my device, and after I clicked factory reset and tried installing the ROM, I got the error

unmount of /system failed; so such volume

I looked around online, some posts said that it's fine, the ROM will install anyways, but that's not the case. The ROM didn't install (the process is finishing way too quickly), and I'm still stuck at bootloops.

I'm running TWRP 3.0.2.0 (newest version), android 5.1.1, on my note 4 N910H.

I have access to TWRP and to download mode, and I can move files between the PC and my phone using an external memory card.

PLEASE HELP ME :crying:

The ExtUSB port on my tytn2 seems to be broken, or something.

When I plug it into my computer it is no longer recognised, and doesn't even start to charge anymore.

Similarly, if I plug in any sort of charger, then the device will not do anything.

In an effort to charge it, I did the following. I removed the battery, thereby switching the device totally off, put the battery back in and then attached a mains charger. At this point I got a solid red LED at the top where the signal/charge LED is. I left it like this for 2 hours and came back to it. I switched it back on and it had fully charged the device - yet I still could not get it recognised by anything.

So what's going on here - is it broken or is this a software issue.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dazultra2000:
Ignore the reflash bit. How am I supposed to do that if I can't get USB working? Stupid question sorry. Still, I've tried a hard reset and still nothing, so I guess it's knackered huh :(

EDIT: Replacement is on it's way for tomorrow. Puts an end to that saga I suppose!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] borealcool:
HTC's miniUSB port uses traces for contacts instead of pins, which I can't even begin to express how ridiculous that is. To make matters worse, the soft reset pinhole is located right next to it so one slight jab of the stylus, car keys in your pocket etc and you're screwed. You may have done it without even noticing.

Flashing roms is out of the question, but you can use PocketController to make it look as stock as possible through wifi. Another alternative is to take your device to a college/university micro-electronics lab where they will fix it for a small donation or free.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] borealcool:
Best of luck, but it might not be the end of your saga. When it gets to servicing, if they notice something was jabbed in the miniSUB port, they could come at you with out of warranty fees.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dazultra2000:
I have insurance on my phone. It's covered for accidental damage anyway.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kcchen:
Yep. Figured that out the hard way. Accidently stuck my stylus into the USB rather than the reset hole.

If you're lucky, you may be able to "push" the traces on the bottom side of the connector back in place... only one side of my connector was bent. Then I gently connected and re-connected a mini-usb connector.

New phone is here and instantly I have noticed a couple of things:

1) Different type of battery, as already reported by some people. It's the Dynapack that doesn't quite fit properly.

2) Screen seems brighter and more colourful - again, as reported by some people already

3) The screen tilt is much stiffer (which is good cos the old one was really loose)

4) MicroSD cover feels of better material.

5) Whole thing feels so much quicker - but that's probably just because I've not loaded anything into it yet.

[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] civicsr2cool:
I see where it said phone connected but never where it said disconnected. Something is fishy with your data cable,the usbport,or your sequence. I'd try a reboot,new cable,new port, and don't enter flash mode until it asks you.

Whenever I had a failure with flash tool I always had to hard reset my computer because something would vet stuck, I also found out kneof my USB ports was for charging and not data. It's worth a shot to investigate more.

I had forgotten that you could not do a permanent root on 5.1.1 and used kingo root on it. Now i'm in deep trouble. My new unlocked (once at&t) tablet is boot looped and it has the custom icon, which means once the seller sees that they will know that I tried to root it if they are techy enough. So I must at least get rid of the custom before I can send it off to them for a replacement. (I might be able to blame it on a kid but I don't know how that will fly) I've tried kies, odin and everything else I can find but haven't be able to fix it. So I was hoping that someone here could advise me. I don't care about the info on it, that's replaceable but I really want to know how to fix my tablet. I can get it into recovery mode and download mode but it's stuck on the at&t logo. Can anyone help me? Thanks

After you fix it. Root with Kingroot only and you will be fine. Then search for triangle away online, you can get it free. Open that up and click to reset counter.

Hi Everybody,

To be honest, I am very much amazed by the Camera of One Plus 3, It takes amazing shots in low light(provided you adjust exposure)

I have been tinkering with my One Plus 3 Camera for a while and found the Manual Mode in 3.2.0 Update quite usefull.

Here are some of the Pictures taken with My Device,

Proshot Pro for manual settings

Biglens for DSLR like DOF

[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] varunmehra5:
Works fine for me. Sometime changing the exposure leads to black screen. But I just restart the app
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] EP2008:
Black screen, crazy issues with zooming, the UI breaks (icons get all jumbled up and the viewfinder has fragments of frozen images), changing ISO doesn't give any preview so you don't know if the image is too light or what.

One thing that did work was the ability to turn image stabilization on and off at will.

[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] _Man0waR_:
Very nice results indeed with a phone and such a small lens. Stacking more raw pics of the same sky area before processing with lightroom/photoshop should help to reduce the noise.

On windows DeepSkyStacker is great for stacking.

I would love myself to experiment with different cameras apps/different processing however it seems (at least the last time I tried on OOS) that only the stock camera allows slow exposure up to 30s.

Anyone tried with cm and the latest camera improvements ? I know the OOS stock camera has some issues on custom roms but what about 'Snap' camera ?
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Vayper_fr:
Thanks for the advice, it's the first time I shot the Milky Way, I didn't know that such software exist :)

But I didn't understand the part about Flats (PLU), can you explain it to me please ? :)

Btw I tested all the ISO, and my favourites are 800 and 1600 to do night photographies.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] _Man0waR_:
Hi. Well there are a lot of settings and options in this software. It's generally used with DSLR and telescopes. You can ignore flats and darks for now and only stack the 'lights' frames.

I suggest to read the faq on Deepskystacker website.

There are other techniques for stacking, using only photoshop for example. I reckon Deepskystacker is probably overkill for mobile astrophotography.

I have some astrophotography experience with a DSLR and a telescope but never tried with a smartphone. Mainly because smartphone cameras were pretty bad until recently, also long time exposure is relatively new on mobiles.

Have a look at this article too.

http://www.lonelyspeck.com/photographing-the-milky-way-with-a-smartphone/

I will try myself to experiment when I have some free time and clear skies.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Vayper_fr:
Okay,

I took again few photos last night, with the same parameters as before.

This time, I used the noise reduction technic, with image stacking (Photoshop, 5 pictures) (Thanks @ _Man0waR_ for the tip :o )

Here is my first night photography with this technic. I took others with ISO 1600 but I didn't have the time yet to do the post-processing ^^

Here is the original RAW picture (ISO 800, 30s exposure, Infinite Focus) :

[IMG="original RAW"]http://nsa38.casimages.com/img/2016/08/07/160807123546297212.jpg[/IMG]

[IMG="stacked RAW"]http://nsa38.casimages.com/img/2016/08/07/160807123720839697.png[/IMG]

Great noise reduction !

And here the processed RAW (I wanted a more natural look as the previous one) :

[IMG="processed RAW"]http://nsa37.casimages.com/img/2016/08/07/160807123453401279.jpg[/IMG]
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] _Man0waR_:
Very nice shooting of the Lyra and Cygnus region :) It's impressive considering it was totally impossible to take this kind of pictures not so long ago with just a phone.

Stacking definitely helped to reduce the noise.

You should try to shoot the Sagittarius area (if you can, it's quite low in the sky). Adding some foreground, trees,mountains can make some really artistic pictures I suppose.

Well done !
