I read somewhere that i must flash the firmware with pressing volume down button but it didnt work too

Pls help me

is this maybe a hardware issue and if it is: can i fix it?

Hi All,

I am facing a problem , Bought new 7500 made two calls with headset and it was fine, but with third call sound quality was very bad, I couldn't hear and my friend couldn't hear me. Both felt like talking from very noisy area. Please let me know if there is any audio patch file or any solution for this problem.

Thanks

Hi,...

maybe you should try to flash to Radio ROM 1.50 (if not already done).

[Galaxy S6 Active] roveer:
I've come across a situation where I would like to fully reload my S6 Active. Not just a wipe, but force a full os reload. I tried going back to a lollipop release using oden but that was unsucessful due to a locked bootloader (I'm assuming). But is there a way to reload the current OS? I can't seem to find a repository that contains the current version and don't even know if I could odin flash it.

Can someone let me know if this is possible. Since AT&T just released an update at the end of july is it possible I have to go back to the base version and take the updates OTA? Is there a respitory where I could get the base version? I tried SamMobile but they don't list anything for the S6 Active.

[Galaxy S6 Active] Ihaveaflashingproblem:
I tried this once and looked for a week but found nothing as of the posting date.

My phone was locked to the Smart Switch I was able to hold the Vol Up + Home+Power to get to download menu and then hit Home to get the SN and IMEI numbers. I went to Best Buy to the Samsung tech and they could not flash it I called samsung and they had me send the phone back and replaced everything no questions I told them I was trying to Update it and it did that. They sent me back the 6.0.1 Update I hope it doesn't have the same problems I was trying to get away from.
[Security Discussion] Cobain19XX:
Hello everyone!

So the last day I costumer gave me a Huawei Y5 that has a Factory reset protection, And I started thinking about how to bypass it, I tried a costume rom but it didn't do any help, also tried to remove the setup wizard .apk and same! no result.

so after seeing a couple of articles I managed to find a solution :

1- Reboot your phone to recovery mode and connect it to a computer with adb

2- Pull the build.prop file

3- Edit it with any software you want and add the following 3 lines :

persist.service.adb.enable=1

persist.service.debuggable=1

persist.sys.usb.config=mtp,adb

4- Save the file and push it to the phone

5- Reboot and check if adb recognizes the phone then run an adb shell

6- execute the following commands :

am start -S com.android.settings -c android.intent.category.LAUNCHER 1

7- The settings app will pop up, simply enable oem unlock in developer settings then reset the phone through the settings app

8- Reboot and you're done !

PS: This is my first post here so sorry if it's the wrong section !

peace out

Hey guys, My dad is willing to update his LG G4'S version (Currently running Lollipop), I do understand a thing or two in rooting, custom roms and recoverys , however, I own a galaxy s6 - it has no AOSP Roms, only stock based. and my father is used to his phone as it is, I don't think flashing cyanogenmod will be a good idea, he likes the functions LG added and stuff like that( Yeah, I don't understand it too :) ). Are there any good MM stock based roms?

Thanks and sorry for my English :)
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Velkyrix:
Cant u just ota official mm?

If not, what variant does he have? not all roms can be flashed.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JusTeN_:
Sorry for not mentioning - H815, Also, what is the newest official MM version (carrier-free)? I don't have any OTA's in my place currently unfortunately.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WTF?:
I use the stock MM ROM ver 20D listed in Android Development section, and it is lightning fast and smooth!
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Velkyrix:
Well good news, you got the bootloader unlockable variant!

To be honest anything with H815 in it is what you can do.

You can flash stock MM (I'd reccomend v20h its located in the general section)

You can flash cm13,

Be free little birdy!
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] CmDaRkShAdOw:
What can I do?
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] optimumpro:
You are not infected, but affected. It is a big difference. Get a rom that is maintained, as opposed to abandoned....
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] CmDaRkShAdOw:
Hmm..I'm using dstrikerz1 but sp001(the newest version is sp002, but I prefer that) update is planned..changing rom will help? I never met that virus, so I don't know what to do right now.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] optimumpro:
I don't think you fully understand: the only way to patch the vulnerabilities is to change the code and re-build the rom. No stock rom can be build from sources by anyone, except OEM, because stock roms are closed source, i.e., code is not available. They can only be moded: delete an app, change wallpaper etc... . So, no matter how many more releases of moded stock roms can appear, none of them will include any security patches after the last official release, which was about the end of last year....
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] CmDaRkShAdOw:
I didn't understand because I told you that this is my first time with this. Ehh so I must accept this... Thank for reply.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] derf elot:
The problem here is that most of these vulnerabilities (with the exception of the first, which is in the kernel) are inside proprietary files from qualcomm. So binaries which we don't have access to the source code to. Chances of this ever being fixed on our phones are pretty slim to none. The only chance might be the release of patched binaries for MM AOSP, which could then be used in custom (non-stock) ROMs.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Emperor.dk:
Also we all just needs to "Keep calm and carry on".

We are also all "affected" to be run down by a car in the street, but we some how don't get run down every day.

How: we don't walk out on the street in front of a car. We carefully look both sides first.

Just as we don't download and install unknown apps from unknown sources :)

This is A gpu error, only you need is to check new apks, and be sure that are safe, before installing.

[Xperia Z1 Compact General] optimumpro:
Not true. They are all open source. In fact most Qualcomm's fixes are open source. Just because Google is lazy to reference sources and instead chooses to publish binaries, doesn't mean they are not open source. You just have to get them from Code Aurora directly.

Here they are:

CVE-2016-2059: https://source.codeaurora.org/quic/la/kernel/msm-3.18/commit/?id=9e8bdd63f7011dff5523ea435433834b3702398d

Yes, I was mis-informed by an article I read yesterday.

I found those patches last night and made a new build. Funnily though, CVE-2016-5340 is still shown as unfixed in the program, but other people are having that problem as well it seems. So for now I'm blaming the App :)

[Xperia Z1 Compact General] gbr3h:
Just to be 100% sure: if I use a stock ROM (as we know there will be no updates...) the only way to protect myself is to:

stop using it and use some custom ROM

use some apk scanner (e.g. AVG), do not install from unknown sources, do not install suspicious apps (and "that's all")

So no way to e.g. somehow patch my ROM.

As a second question, I know that I can be hit by a car at any time but am I safe on a stock ROM? It is fast and works fine for me. Btw I would need some OS where I can download my company mails and things like that which need a "very secure environment"... and also a very stable one, as I know current Marshmallow ROMs for Z1 are unstable.

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] DKDude:
A press release stating the use of the 820 in the Note 7 but it makes sure to mention it will use Aqstic, which is Qualcomm's HiFi audio solution.

There is also a statement from June about Aqstic and it's benefits that mentions phones that use it, the S7 is not one of the highlighted phones.

So should we expect better audio output from the Note 7 820? The SD variants have always lacked in the audio department on Galaxy phones compared to the Wolfson DAC on the International models. So here's hoping for good stuff.

I tried to post the links to each statement from Qualcomm's website but since this is my first topic I can't. Googling Qualcomm Aqstic brings both results up right away.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] BarryH_GEG:
It's pretty clear Samsung intentionally carried over the S7-series innards to the Note7 to save money. Outside USB-C and the iris scanner they appear to be identical h/w wise (S Pen features excepted). Here's what Samsung used in the Snapdragon vs. Exynos S7 audio h/w wise. I'd guess it's the same in the Note7. The A/V chip on the S-820 phones is for voice command activation and operation and noise reduction. So I'd guess that if whatever you're looking for wasn't in the 7-series it isn't in the Note7 either.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] DKDude:
Damn, one can dream I guess, lol.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] PsiPhiDan:
I think you're right. I've seen multiple places report it is using the Qualcomm Aqstic, which is the same codec used in the HTC M10. It's not in the S7 or S7E, as far as I can tell. That's awesome! Now let's hope Samsung uses a decent amp in the Note 7 or it won't matter. Samsung is notorious for low powered amps.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] vitality:
Here is the link from quallcom regarding the note 7

https://www.qualcomm.com/news/relea...m-powers-next-generation-samsung-galaxy-note7

As the OP writes, the Aqstic codec in the note 7 is in the HTC 10 and not in the s7. This based on quallcom's website.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] DKDude:
I think you nailed it, if they don't put a better quality amp in it or fix whatever was wrong with the one that is in the S7 US models it won't matter. I really hope that it's just clear, I can deal with lower output, just let it be clear and clean.

Also if anyone finds any reviews, videos, or comments from people that have early models that test the audio output please post a link here.

Ok, this might ease my concern slightly about the Snapdragon 820 being in the Canadian model

Read what quallcom write about the Astiq codec here

https://www.qualcomm.com/news/snapdragon/2016/06/02/qualcomm-aqstic-sets-new-standard-audiophiles

The amplifier is part of the package. Thus, the note 7 should have the same amplifier as the HTC 10.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] BarryH_GEG:
What Qualcomm's saying doesn't make a lot of sense. The WCD9335 audio codec is part of the S-820 chipset whether it's used in a Samsung or HTC phone. Devs in the HTC 10 forum confirmed its using WCD9335.

Qualcomm, a world leader in mobile technologies, offers the new Snapdragon 820, a complete chipset currently powering or in-development with more than 100 smartphones worldwide. The U.S. versions of Samsung's latest flagship phones, the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge, integrate the Snapdragon 820 chipset. In this chipset, we discovered for the first time a Qualcomm component featuring Fan-Out Wafer-Level Packaging (FOWLP): the Qualcomm Audio Codec WCD9335.

Located on the smartphone's main board, the audio codec chip's presence in the Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge depends on the smartphone version. The international version, featuring an Exynos chipset, integrates the audio codec chip from Cirrus Logic. The U.S. version, featuring the Snapdragon 820 chipset, integrates the audio codec from Qualcomm.

The Qualcomm WDC9335 is wafer-level packaged with fan-out technology. This is still relatively rare in the smartphone market but is expected to spread quickly. The FOWLP technology used is the eWLB, licensed by Intel/Infineon to several OSATs including ASE Group, Nanium, and STATS ChipPAC.

Thanks to this FOWLP process, Qualcomm is able to propose a very small die independent of the area required by the I/O pads. The result is a very cost-effective component that can compete with a standard fan-in WLP technology.

https://globenewswire.com/news-rele...e-Audio-Codec-Solution-from-Cirrus-Logic.html​

This is from Qualcomm

A Qualcomm Snapdragon powered smartphone with integrated Qualcomm Aqstic audio codec is engineered to deliver those sounds—no additional equipment (or dollars) needed. And there has been no shortage of smartphones featuring Qualcomm Aqstic, including the HTC 10 and Xiaomi Mi5, powered by the Snapdragon 820 processor (check out these awesome reviews).

Maybe the most impressive part of the Aqstic solution is that it combines the best of both worlds in performance and power consumption. Every aspect of the Aqstic audio solution is highly integrated in the Snapdragon 820, engineered to provide Hi-Fi audio quality while maintaining great battery life.​

Both the HTC 10 and S7-Series use the same S-820 chip so both use the WCD9335 audio codec because it's integrated which both quotes above confirm. It sounds like Qualcomm gave their audio codec a name for marketing purposes. Since 820 hasn't changed, in facts its been superseded by S-821 and S-823, it doesn't make sense that anything is different codec wise between all phones using S-820. Kind of confusing though.

I had the S7E and frankly the headphone audio was terrible. I've since moved to the HTC 10 and the audio is excellent.

Now I'm not expecting HTC level audio, but something better then the s7e would be nice. Even just better software processing.

Has anybody compared any of these devices from an audio standpoint?
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] busab:
Since it's the same hardware as the S7 I'd expect the same sub-par sound quality unfortunately. The US version keeps getting the shaft in this regard.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] HNIC215:
I'm curious to find this out as well...

I had the S7 Edge and it wasn't bad just not as good as the HTC 10 - audio on the HTC was a standout feature.

I wish Samsung would put more effort in this area - in their defense though, they have been known to include some nice Wolfson DAC's in past Galaxy phones like the Note 5. I think it varies depending on which model you purchase (Exynos/Qualcomm).

Apple is rumored to improve audio on the iPhone 7 since they remove the headphone jack, so let's see if Samsung responds and gives more attention to it on the S8 and beyond.

How does the S7 compare to the Note 4, S4 or S5 in audio quality? You guys have me nervous about my pre-order since I use headphones so much. I don't have anything super fancy, just some Shure SE215's
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] drummerman:
I use a Cyrus/Usher home audio system plus Grado and Sennheiser cans for headphone listening.

It depends if you call booming bass and searing highs 'good quality' audio?

If you care about music reproduction the Exynos version is actually very good. - Wolfson co-developed Lucky DAC.

I also have a Audio quest Dragonfly Black external DAC and although I use it if I listen critically the difference is not night and day.

If you're unlucky enough to have the Snapdragon version (for several reasons) you won't enjoy your audio as much. It uses the integrated chip.

Headphone amplifier power is limited in both versions. It goes plenty loud (for many unfortunately the decisive factor as to 'good sound') but it won't please head bangers.

If you value your hearing you probably won't want to go there.

The included head buds are useless by the way. I'd bin them asap.
