[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Boy Bisaya:
It seems firmware update is being rolled out. I got mine last night. It says something like if my unit is not affected, my battery indicator will turn green, otherwise, the unit will limit the battery charge to 60%.

After the update was successful, guess what, my battery indicator remains white and now, I have a Note7 that can only charge up to 60%. And I get this annoying notification everytime I charge the unit beyond 60% saying to stop using my Note7 and tells me to go visit the place of purchase or nearest Samsung shop.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] elmaquinadeamor:
Got the update too. You can actually disable the 60% charge cap but still only to a maximum of 80% which is interesting. If they were going to allow for 80% why not just fix it at 80% or fix it at 60% and not leave it up to the user to decide. Its like they're telling us to choose between 'totally safe' and 'at your own risk'.

I just didn't update and still exchange in October.

I was worried our phones would remain banned indefinitely...this article does not help

[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Boy Bisaya:
So far, I am not seeing any ban right now. Majority of the airlines though are restricting the charging and use of Note7 on board. As long as the unit is powered off, then I think you are all good for the duration of the flight. I frequently travel domestic and international and with me is my old Note3 (now Note7) and this is one of the things that I am watching out for. Next week will be my first international flight with my Note7 on board. It will be packed in my "handcarry" backpack together with my GoPro, power bank, Garmin devices, etc. We will see by then how the airline will handle this. Hopefully I wont be sleeping at the Airport (denied boarding) just because I have a powered off Note7.

From the link you shared, I hope this will also be an eye opener for those who prefer to use cheap 3rd party battery packs. I am not saying here that that Note 2 is using one. What I mean is, it's a risk and user just have to ensure that the 3rd party battery pack is reliable and safe enough to use.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] koppee1:
Ok please update us what happens on your international flight.

Also, if I read right, I think the update that turns your max charging to 60 percent isn't a fix. In other countries, it was a forced update, and people woke up with an upgraded device. The 60 percent is to inconvenience you and force you to go get your note exchanged. Otherwise, people who have no problems might decide to keep their units.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Boy Bisaya:
Sure will.

It was a pushed update as I set mine to automatically download those. At least they allow up to 80% charge. But then, that's 10% below my set limit.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] koppee1:
I turned off automatic updates so I can still charge to 100...
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Boy Bisaya:
Are the replacement units already available?
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] edsol:
I'm waiting for Oct. 1 because that is supposed to be the said date of the arrival of the note 7 replacement. I'm waiting with high expectation and I really wish that Samsung will not disappoint the thousands of customers who decided to stick it out with Samsung inspite of this fiasco. Come on Samsung make us happy again.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Boy Bisaya:
Telco replacement is before Oct. 1 right?
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] edsol:
I didn't get mine from the telcos but from samsung megamall and they told me it's on Oct. 1
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] axel-529:
did anyone tried here to flash the previous official rom, did they eventually able to charge their phone to 100% again? TIA
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] force70:
I havent but others have, its blocked and you cannot go back so no you cwnt charge to 100.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Boy Bisaya:
You should be able to have your new Note7 by weekend then.

80% max is good enough for me. Temporarily.

With regards to Smart, replacements will be available starting October 1. I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't have enough replacements on hand on the 1st.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Boy Bisaya:
If logistics is doing their job well, there should be enough units. Most likely not all can be served though on day 1. Manpower shortage.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] rndll:
That's just it. Smart has very poor logistics. I waited 2 weeks to get my Black unit because Smart said they didn't have stocks yet but when I forced them to contact their warehouse, turns out there were dozens of black units just sitting there for a few days already. The Smart store couldn't get any explanation why they weren't being delivered. The store had to get the unit themselves from the warehouse.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Boy Bisaya:
Any idea if you can change color for replacement unit?
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] rndll:
No that won't be possible according Smart and Samsung. Already asked.

Any info on when Globe would have new units for purchase through a plan? (not replacement)

Was hoping to renew my plan and get the Note 7 this coming October 1, if telcos are also providing units the same date as what samsung said
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] elmaquinadeamor:
Just got a call from globe. My replacement unit will be delivered on Oct. 6.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] edsol:
I just got my Note 7 replacement unit from Samsung Megamall. They put up a speciall place on the 5th floor complete with photographers and receptionists to accomodate you. Included in the new unit is a free Note 7 screen protector from samsung and a GC worth P1000. There were even Korean bosses of samsung who were there just to talk to us and apologize for the inconvenience that samsung has given us. I really appreciate what Samsung has been doing so far to deal with the exploding Note 7 fiasco. Now, fingers crossed, I hope this replacement unit has a better battery life and I can go to bed with my Note 7 being charged near my bed without fear of me waking up with my head on fire.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] rigorimpossible:
I just talked to a Samsung customer service rep over the phone. According to him, replacement units will be available starting October 1st. Visayas and Mindsnao will have to wait a little further, theirs will be on October 5th. General consumer sale will resume on those dates if the store have more than enough Note7.

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Aescher75:
Been looking around a lot here to find a solution and I see a few with the same problem but have never come across a solution yet.

I had my Kindle HDX 8.9 Apollo (3rd Gen) running fireOS 4.5.5.1. Installed Kingroot, rooted the device fine. I installed safestrap 4.0.1 B03 and it installed fine, was prompted for root access, allowed it and was able to install recovery. However when I either power off and or within safestrap select reboot to recovery i am stuck at the grey fire loading screen. I have to hold power button kill it, turn it back on go through the safestrap loading screen hit continue or just let it load. Then I get back to FireOS. during boot at the sfestrap screen i hit recovery goes to black screen and eventually have to hold power to kill it and reload again.

I read another post with some similar issues. The issue they had was the system folder was out of room and removing some files cleared up the issue. So i uninstalled safestrap, unrooted and uninstalled king root. Loaded in to the kindle recovery mode and reset to default.

I then proceeded to just use kingroot (root successful) loaded safestrap and rebooted ... same exact issue on freshly restored fire HDX.

I have to be missing something, I have been reading all day about different issues and trying to get past this to install CM11 on the device. Just cant get past this issue to backup and continue the process.

More info:

Safestrap boot screen shows safestrap :disabled

I can provide ADB info if needed.

Any suggestions?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
A stock factory reset (misnomer) does not touch the system partition; it only flushes the data partition. While I am not sure what is causing the problem with Safestrap recovery insufficient space in the system partition would certainly do it. Once rooted you can use ES File Explorer or similar tool to review the contents and identify potential candidates for removal. IMPORTANT: Don't delete anything without verifying the file is safe to remove. Also don't mess with permissions or try to edit build.prop. As you are probably aware even the slightest abnormally in the system partition can cause FireOS not to boot which is usually fatal on this device.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Aescher75:
Ok thanks Davey I will take a look at the system partition and clean anything up I can. Maybe that is the problem I am still fighting with just a space issue. I will give it a try and report back.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Aescher75:
Im looking through system using es file explorer any suggestions on what to dump? Is the system "partition" just items under the system folder?

Just trying to be careful on what i get rid of. Is there a list of items published in a stock Fire HDX by chance? Would be nice to have something to look at and compare.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
No standard list of folders/files that I am aware of.

Let's verify whether space is really an issue. Recall I'm not sure what is causing the problem w/Safestrap although it has been reported before.

Grab the following app that will help you visualize space in the system partition (apkmirror is a well regarded repository for Android apps):

http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/ivan-volosyuk/diskusage/

Check free space in under /system mount point. Tap and pinch-zoom as needed. If > 100MB you should be fine. Don't delete anything just yet. Just looking ...
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Aescher75:
Man this app is awesome! I have included some screenshots of the /system mount point ... there is some issues here for sure. All them teeth and no toothbrush .. I have attached a few screenshots to show what the system mount point looks like. I drilled into a few of the more expensive folders to show more detail. Let me know if you can see them ok, or need to drill in deeper to them.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
Good stuff; was able to view the images fine. You don't need a ton of free space for Safestrap Recovery. Suggest deleting a couple benign Amazon apks in the priv-app folder such as weather and calculator. Don't go crazy or clobber apks that don't have clear function. Again, you just need enough space for Safestrap. The rest of the clutter in /system will get flushed with the installation of a custom rom.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Aescher75:
OK few things. I was able to free up 110 MB of /system space these are the apk's i used titanium to backup and then uninstalled:

Weather

Audible

Contacts

Calculator

Maps

Kindle Tutorial

Calendar

Contacts

Goodreads

Nuance Dictation

And the Kindle Office App

I rebooted and the fire came up (shew)

I now have 110 MB free. So I rebooted from safestrap into recovery and same got the grey fire logo and seemed to lock up. So held power rebooted got the safestrap screen (Still showed disabled) Back in fireOS.

I unstalled recovery in safestrap

uninstalled Safestrap

went in to ADB and reinstalled safestrap

Installed recovery inside safestrap

rebooted to recovery

got the grey fire again and presto there is the recovery screen.

So I think I am ready to make a backup and find that awesome walk - through you did and follow it along.

Pretty stoked!! Thanks for the hand with this, I am sure I am just beginning the fun!!

Any suggestions on the ROM?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
As you know your choices are limited to HDX Nexus and CM-11. I use both on different devices. Both adaptations are stable KitKat builds with proven track records. I have a slight preference for Nexus on this device as makes best use of hardware resources (IMHO) and has the greatest compatibility with Xposed modules like GravityBox which significantly extends the already excellent UI. Toss in Nova, Google Play Services and Greenify and you have a nice device that rivals Lollipop/Marshmallow equivalents.

Be sure to review the HDX Nexus OP and Safestrap v4 best practices before proceeding. Highlights:

- no need to flash GAaps or SuperSU with this rom; both are built-in

- be sure to backup your current FireOS build from within Safestrap and store the archive on another device

- be sure to perform a factory reset (wipe) from WITHIN Safestrap prior to flashing a *new* rom

- you cannot communicate with the outside world from with Safestrap; all files must be copied to device in advance

- Safestrap is a capable but sensitive environment for hosting custom roms; it is NOT a full recovery, hence ...

- IMPORTANT: never perform a factory reset from the stock recovery menu with Safestrap v4 installed (instant brick)

- IMPORTANT: always keep a copy of the Nexus installation zip on your device for emergency recovery

- IMPORTANT: do not create/use secondary slots; only flash roms to the STOCK slot (overwrites FireOS)

Any questions bounce back. Several respected contributors monitor these forums and more than happy to assist as needed (and keep you out of deep doo-doo).
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SethCW:
Ok. So I was attempting to unroot my phone earlier, so I downloaded a stock firmware and used odin to put it on my phone (don't know the technical term). When is was going through all of the things in odin, it said it failed and said 'Complete(Write) operation failed'. I then tried to download a stock firmware from another site, and the same error popped up. I kept retrying and sooner or later I realised that my phone was saying that there was an error updating and I need to use emergency recovery thing in smart switch. I tried this, and neither smart switch, or Kies recognised my device. I then tried to use odin to flash this TWRP thing I have from something I did a while ago. This worked somewhat as I can now access this thing call team win recovery project. I can also enter download mode. Does anyone know how to help me?

[XDA Assist] :
I have an LGE Optimus Zone 3 prepaid VS425PP running Android 5.1.1 (lollipop). I successfully rooted it using kingroot. From there I was attempting to switch over from kingroot to supersu using the supersume download. When it got about halfway done, right after it disabled kingroot and presumably before installing supersu, I started getting popups every second or so saying kingroot had stopped working. Between popups there was a message from supersume that said it recommended rebooting, so I did. When it rebooted it wasn't working right anymore and the mobile was disabled. I tried rebooting again then resetting the settings then a full factory reset. Since I did the factory reset the phone it turns on, shows the LG logo, then shows the Verizon logo and just sits there. I don't have a working computer right now, my only other devices are an iPhone and iPad. Are there any other remedies to try??
