Well, I'm glad that i'm able to contribute something to the same community that had done so much to pimp my phone :)

I came across this cab that install this dll file which adds the option for "Mark All SMS as Read" which is quite useful especially when syncing email and suddenly you got all 10 new mails but want to mark all as read.

The only problem is, this cab adds the option to mark all sms as read into every menu in Messaging, ( when pressing the right softkey in SMS Inbox), so someone just need to figure out how it does and add the option into the messaging menu.

A2DP works; though my headset is not stereo. Must activate through CeleTask. Quality-wise its quite ok:D .

I'm wondering is there a method to by-pass CeleTask as I hardly use Celetask. In pre-WM6 I remember there is an A2DP file which I put a short-cut in the \Windows\Startup.

Hmmmm... will search for this file...
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
But I thought under Bluetooth Option, search for device, press the right soft key and you can set the device as wireless stereo ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Jasper078:
Hey guys,

I was trying to root my Samsung Galaxy S7 when something went wrong.

I'm currently stuck on the TWRP loading screen and I've tried to flash back to stock firmware but whenever I load the image into Odin it gets stuck on:

<ID:0/003> SetupConnection..

I downloaded the Firmware from here:

sammobile.com/firmwares/download/72588/G930FXXU1APD1_G930FUWT1APD3_MMO/

I've tried:

- Reinstalling Samsung drivers

- Different USB port

- Different cable
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] MAX 404:
Stupid question.....but you are using odin from download mode , right?

Try a different odin....or different pc
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Jasper078:
Well, the only state my phone can get into is the TWRP loading screen. Does this qualify as download mode? If not, how do I fix this as pressing power + home + vol down/up only returns me to the same TWRP state. I can't get the phone to boot normally either.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Jasper078:
Actually I've gotten it into download mode now. Still gives the same message in Odin however.

Got it working on stock again. Sorry for the panic post, was just afraid I had ****ed up my phone. I kept trying to select the CP option in Odin when I had to select the AP option for stock...

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Bobusm:
Just purchased s7 edge in white and to be fair I am very dissapointed with it. Light is bleeding pretty much all around the screen. It is in white finish and it just looks like the white does not cover anything at all. I understand that amoled should not bleed as ther is no edge backlight but the screen just looks horible when in bit of a dark conditions. White edges on top and bottom are basically lit up as well!

Please see this picture in pitch black on phone. Could it be faulty handset or just a white finish not covering things properly
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Bobusm:
And another picture showing the leaks all over on white screen
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] robstunner:
I can't see what you're talking about. Either way, I don't see how an OLED screen can bleed....
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] -Ric-:
Did you purchase it on a store? or from someone? cause it might be a fake phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Bobusm:
Well it is quite clear on pictures. The white surround of the phone does light up based on the colour of the screen to the extent that majority of white bezel is lit up with white screen on. The rainbow efect on the first pictures could be seen over the bezel itself as well which is very unusual
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Bobusm:
It was an upgrade from EE UK so defo not a fake.

I am just trying to work out if this is hapenning on all white s7 edges or it is just my phone and I can look for replacement.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] amar95353:
It happens on all s7 edges. But the white one shows it the most. It isn't really lightbleed all it is that the light from the screen is traveling through the glass.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Bobusm:
I understand this is happening on sides where the edge is but should not be shown on bezel on top or bottom and side bezels as well.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] drummerman:
It doesn't happen on the gold version.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] amar95353:
It happens slightly. I personally have the gold one and if you have you brightness set to full and have something white display you will see the light come out at the edges where the glass meets the metal frame.

Here's a picture of mine. It isn't clear but you get the idea: http://m.imgur.com/7FBGPlX

This problem has been present on all of the white Samsung phones which I have had.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Bobusm:
Thanks for reply.

I have arranged exchange for another white one tomorrow, so we will see.

For me personally this is dealbreaker. Cannot really believe this was not reported much before for such a favourite device. Having all this gorgeous amoled screen with zero level blacks and you phone lights up like christmas tree in dark is ridiculous. Watched video side by side on my LG flex 2 and this s7 edge in darkness and the edge one is really bad with all the leakage coming from bezel. Magic of amoled is just gone for me. Hope will have better news tomorrow. Worst case scenario will have to go for dark finish one to get results I want.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] amar95353:
The black s7 edge is the best looking one in my opinion. It's the one I was going to go for but the gold one was the only one which was in stock. I'd go for the black one becuase the white one will have the same issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Bobusm:
You were right. Doh.

Received replacement and it is exactly same as the first one. I dont really know what to do. Really like the phone but I just can't get over the issue. I use the phone in dark quite often and black performance is very important for me, unfortunately it is just not good enough with all the leakage.

I am tempted to try the black one to see if issue will go away or possibly wait for Note 7.

I cannot really understand how people can live with this issue. Done more googling and it seems to be quite a common problem even on s6 edge. If that was apple it would be all over the web as another Applegate but Samsung is somehow protected. Weird.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] amar95353:
Try the black s7 edge. The only reason which would warrant the jump to the note 7 is 2 features, the spen and iris scanner. Personally I'd keep the s7 edge because of the bigger battery. I've had every single note up until the note 5 and the spen in my case was just a showing off feature, I rarely used it. Obviously it's still your choice but I'd try the black s7 edge before jumping to the note 7.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] klusek:
I have the white as well , and the light leak is not a big problem for me.You can see it as a feature,like the expensive Philips led TV's with Ambilight.. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Bobusm:
Yes. Phillips Ambilight was first thing that came to my mind as well. Unfortunatelly it is not something I want from the phone :(
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Bobusm:
Received black one today.

Much better than white. Still some leaking on sides where glass meets metal but bezels covering all the light so thats good. Got mixed feelings about the phone at the moment but will see how it goes. Expected Really good baterry life but it is poor so far. Hope it will improve with few more charges. Camera is excellent. Need to get used to the samsung UI as been with LG for 4 years.

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] tele_jas:
So, I just did a speed test with my son's HTC One M9 and my Axon 7.

Test were done at the same time, even though the screenshots were 4 minutes apart.

Both phones on my desk, 2 feet apart, ran at the exact same time.

Notice the HTC with 5 bars of signal, my Axon 7 with only 2 bars. It was like that when I did the test too.

Results in attachment

[EDIT]

For those curious, the Axon 7 is louder and sounds far superior than the M9..... Just figured I'd share that.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] icenight89:
Recently I've seen a few posts about how "bars" actually matter in signal strength. Please note that each manufacturer has different minimum dBm boundaries. So -60 may be three bars on one phone, only two on another. It's still -60dBm
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] tele_jas:
Yeah, that's kind of what I was referring to, but I guess people can't see inside my head when I leave half my explanation about the bars out, lol?

It's possible that the M9 was connected to a different LTE band from the Axon 7 - if the M9 was on band 17 (12) or 5 and the Axon was on band 4 or perhaps 2 it may be the reason for both the difference in signal strength and throughput. Not sure though...definitely an interesting contrast either way!
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] test878:
While that is true, a bunch of users on this forum and zte forums have done db tests, and the axon 7 (U) is typically worse than other phones. The U (usa) varient also has half the wifi speed that the G (eu/general) model has (see aida64)
[K3 Note General] f1ux:
I find the capacitive buttons hard to use so after a bit of trial and error i found a way to enable software keys and disable the capacitive buttons.

To enable software keys :-

With root file editor, edit the build.prop and add the following to the very bottom

qemu.hw.mainkeys=0

Reboot and the soft keys should now now be showing! They auto-hide as well when required.

WARNING: If you install a ROM update that changes the build prop it will disable the softkeys.

You can usually still navigate to edit the build prop again and then save and reboot though.

To disable capacitative buttons

Use root file explorer and navigate to /system/usr/keylayout

edit the mtk-tpd file and put a # in front of the lines for home, back, menu, app switch

e.g

# key 172 HOME VIRTUAL

# key 139 MENU VIRTUAL

# key 158 BACK VIRTUAL

# key 580 APP_SWITCH VIRTUAL

Reboot and the capacitive buttons no longer work!

tested working on Androium rom so far
[K3 Note General] becleanstayclean:
thanks for the tip.

please i want to know if it is possible to change the arrangement of the soft keys, possible switch the back soft key and the recent task soft keys

We are in the same boat

I have been searching for a solution all day. Please do share if you manage to repair it.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amaskedman:
Hello all. I recently made this thread where I described the phone, the LG G3 d851 t-mobile variant. randomly rebooting and not turning on without pulling the battery. (http://xdaforums.com/lg-g3/help/d851-randomly-shuts-off-wont-power-t3424458). I deduced it to the replacement battery (supposedly genuine) that I purchased from a seller on ebay. I put my old battery in and everything is fine again, and the seller shipped me another replacement battery (big mistake, i know).

I put in the replacement battery, and a day later the phone shuts down again in the same manner as stated in the previous thread. I pull out the battery and put it back in and.. nothing happens on screen. The LEDS just flash green and blue. I tried plugging it into a charger, just a red LED, no display. If I plug in the phone to a charger without the battery inserted, the backlight activates but nothing whatsoever appears on the screen. I cannot get into the recovery either.

If I let the phone sit for a while, and try to power it on, I see the LG boot screen appear for about 5 seconds. Then the image flickers and fades away to black, and the LED just flashes blue/green.

Am I screwed or is there any way to salvage this phone? I'm desperate for any assistance and I'm totally open to any component level repair you guys recommend (I'm pretty broke :/)

Thanks all!

Current behavior:

Attempt to turn phone on: Blank display, no backlight, blue/green LEDs

Plug phone in with battery in: Blank display, no backlight, red LED

Plug phone without battery in: Blank display, backlight active, red LED

Do any of the above after leaving phone off for a while with battery unplugged: display begins to display the expected image for 5 seconds, then the screen flickers and the image fades until the screen turns black.

I tried the old (working) battery, and no luck either.

[edit] Hopefully solved. please read my latest post for my idiotic but somehow functional solution

Possibly bricked plug it into your computer and see what it comes up as.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amaskedman:
So strangely enough, I tried heating my phone using the most idiotic method possible by letting it heat in my blanket (I don't have immediate access to a heat gun). The screen began displaying some funky artifacts when attempting to boot with the LG logo but would otherwise revert to the behavior described in the OP (only LED working, no LCD display.).

I let the phone cool for a few hours and I'm actually able to get as far as the dialog box where it asks you whether or not you really want to format, in other words the factory data reset dialog box (when holding vol down + power to get into the recovery) with minimal to no hardware artififacts., and only when I confirm that I do does it crap out and revert to the previously described behavior. But it actually lets me use the vol keys to select an option, so I'm getting a lot further than before.

So this absolutely seems to be a hardware problem. Anywhere you guys suggest I examine before I take a heat gun to the motherboard? Any specific component I should look at?

Thank you guys so much

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amaskedman:
So,

after reading into this more and suspecting loose solder joints (see the various threads about screen flickering problem), I decided to pursue this route and continue trying to heat the logic board.

I'm completely broke and don't have access to a heat gun, and with no other working phone I decided to take some desperate measures. For those of you having a similar problem and reading this, PLEASE DON'T ATTEMPT WHAT I'M ABOUT TO DESCRIBE. THIS IS A HORRIBLE IDEA.

I turned on the phone to get the blue/green LEDs , plugged it into the wall, and wrapped the phone with blankets. I let the phone cook itself for 2 hours.

Yes, just like the infamous xbox 360 "towel trick".

When I went to remove the phone from my makeshift blanket oven, the phone was brutally hot and felt like a stovetop (was painful to touch for the first 30 seconds). The screen was filled with artifacts due to the intense heat.

I carefully removed the battery, let the heat dissipate slowly for a couple minutes, let the phone cool on an AC unit for a another few minutes and turned the phone on.

It worked. Phone boots and haven't had a single problem for over a day.

I guess the problem was cold solder joints after all, and the intense heat was enough to reflow the solder and form a stable enough connection to allow the display to function again.

Even ran a stress test program for an hour with no issues.

Hoping this fix lasts (knock on wood), will report back if I have any issues.

Again, anyone having a similar problem, please don't emulate me. I shouldn't even have to say why this is a bad idea. Get a heat gun, remove the motherboard and heat it that way.

I'm sure applying the proper repair procedure described in this thread http://xdaforums.com/lg-g3/help/screen-flickering-fix-successful-t3397411 would have fixed my problem as well.

So, why did this problem happen in the first place? I'm guessing it has to do with the overheating issues this model of phone has (at least my particular unit). I've been playing a lot of pokemon go, so the phone is running a lot hotter than it used to. The constant high temps (reading upwards of 75c frequently from my cpu) were enough to weaken the solder joints. I also recall dropping the phone a couple times while playing the game, and I guess this was enough to knock the joints out of wack.

I'm currently capping the CPU at 1500mhz and the GPU at 300mhz and the phone is running a lot cooler now. I'm probably going to set the resolution to 1080p, cap the framerate and possibly undervolt, though this might not be necessary.

Thanks for reading and hope this helps someone in the future.

so we get a 1 year old hardware in the N7 and a 100 mh battery less then the edge , same camera , ****ty irish scanner no need at all , and some software added that can be ported probably to N5 and N4 . who else going to wait for another great deal maybe like V20 ?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ithehappy:
Yeah, doesn't matter what new it brings, what matters is its still better than anything out there isn't it? First phone with Gorilla Glass 5, first Note with water resistant S Pen too, I don't care about that IRIS scanner nor know how fast/reliably it works, new pressure sensitive S Pen. Samsung knows quite well that it will be still the best phone even with one year old hardware and that's why they released it like that, people will still buy it. More profit they are making, more greedy they are becoming, that happens with almost all corporate conglomerates, let alone the largest mobile manufacturer of the world. At the end of the day, Note 7 will still sell in millions, I myself would like to buy it, if it weren't for the expensive pricing I would have as simple as that.
