[Networking] vic_singh:
Hello All,

I’ve spent the last 2 months researching for the right solution but with 2 children under 2 years old it can be very difficult to find time.

I’m looking for the best security solution using VPN with Private Internet Access to secure my home network.

My ISP is Rogers with 100Mbps(average 150Mbps) down and 10Mbps up. I have 2 router I could use which are Netgear R7000 and DLink EA2700.

Most important is to secure my smart home devices. I have a Smartthings Hub, Nest thermostat, Amcrest 1080P IP cam(I will have to setup port forwarding) and WeMo light switch. Future purchases will be Harmony remote, Ring doorbell and more IP cams. Getting all this into running on a VPN is important. These devices do not require tons of bandwidth and exactly why I am thinking of running these on the DLink EA2700 DD-WRT router(VPN speed of 20Mbps).

My other concern is VPN speed drops because of encryption which I primarily need for Amazon Fire TV 2, Minix Neo x7, DLNA speakers and ChromeCast. If I connect this to Netgear R7000 with DD-WRT, I only achieve about 30 Mbps with VPN.

If I connect the 2 routers to my modem/router(Hitron CGN 3-ROG) from my ISP, I will get roughly 60 Mbps total VPN speed. Can i get these under the same local network to share media files?

I was also hoping to use the DLink EA2700 as a repeater to extend my coverage.

Are there any solution that will work for me?

Can I get a Raspberry Pi for encryption? And how is the impact for VPN speed?

I found it is possible to backup and restore with twrp for sm-j700p even though the recovery is not booting into system. What i did was flash twrp... then made a backup... then rebooted into download mode.. then flashed stock recovery and then the system boot up. How i restored my backup was to reflash twrp and select restore backup then reflashed the stock recovery... odin is required for this.. im only doing this until the recovery is able to boot into system...

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] deadbody2:
Sorry for my noob ? I really like the samsung phone app or dialer so is it possible to use one for my oneplus 3? Or is their a mimic samsung rom for oneplus 3...
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Flying_Bear:
Hello everyone,

just recently got the device, my second day of using it. Today, I noticed that my Auto Rotate simply doesn't work at all. After some tinkering in hidden menu (*#808#), I found that within Gsensor analysis, phone is always detected as being upright - portrait position detects 0 degrees, however both landscape positions are WAY off (350 and 10 degs respectively, while they should be 270 and 90).

Supposed sensor calibration within the hidden app doesn't work; phone detects all tests as passed, but the Gsensor shows the same value for Angle variable (btw 350 and 10).

Anyone have any tip on how to resolve?

I switched out several OOS versions via zips, none of them showed any improvement. Flashed CM, could confirm Auto Rotate doesn't work. Hoping someone with similar experience can help me out perhaps.

EDIT:

Additionally, could I ask some of you to perform ACCEL test within Sensor self-test and calibration menu under *#808# and see if you get a pass? I get a fail due to Sensor Specific error
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] duluc:
Reboot the phone.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Flying_Bear:
as noted, I've re-flashed several OOS zips in my bid to try to fix this issue. Rebooting obviously didn't help. here's the picture showing the "cause" of the issue - angle isn't being detected properly.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Flying_Bear:
further investigation lead me to show that indeed accelerator is faulty for some reason - it is constantly detecting acceleration of 60 m/s^2 on Y axis. This is why angle isn't being properly detected. Additionally, I think my magnetometer isn't working properly either. Seems like I'll have to initiate RMA unfortunately, and it will be tough since I live outside of EU, got the phone from Germany from a friend.

I posted this question in this thread http://xdaforums.com/verizon-g4/general/how-to-enable-oem-unlock-vs986-t3170556 but I never got an answer so I decided to make a thread for this question since I think my idea might work though I don't want to mess up my device so ill let someone else try:) Since we can get fastboot by clearing the laf partition could we possibly flash a recovery on the laf partition? I got the idea from this link http://androidforums.com/threads/too...l-v1-2.863389/ the guy made a tool that would flash a recovery on the laf partition for another lg phone. I may be completely wrong on this but I think I might be onto something. It would be great if this would allow us to flash a recovery. If this needs to be moved to the Q&A section or another section feel free to do so. I wasn't exactly sure where this should go.
[Verizon LG G4] billybob275:
Technically you could flash another recovery, but since the bootloader is still locked, at best the phone won't boot and at worst you brick it. Of there's ever a way found to get around the bootloader lock, this is probably how we would flash something like TWRP

[Huawei Y625 Questions & Answers] ShadowsDML:
So my girlfriend's phone, a Huawei Y625-U51 after she took the battery (I suspect during an update but she doesn't know) got soft bricked, all I get when I turn the phone on is a DataBackup screen and multiple processes failure notifications.

I tried to wipe/factory reset but I'm still greeted by the same screen and errors.

I tried installing an update rom from the website and some I found online but I get an error saying: "cannot install this package over newer build" so I tried to edit the date on the build.prop file but then I get a signature error.

The phone is not rooted and I would prefer not to have to (but I really don't care that much).

Also the screen glass is cracked so they gave her the bull**** "no warranty because of damage" excuse.

Could someone please help?

Edit: Found a solution, flashed the system using some production line software or something, you may close the thread.

[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kerfun:
So I did what every phone owner dreads, I forgot my phone in my pocket and went swimming with it. I was swimming with it for about 5 minuets until I noticed it when I noticed it I immediately took the back cover off and unscrewed everything and put all of the components in rice and then put the rice and my phone into a vacuume chamber. I left it like that over night and found that the water killed the battery. So I ordered a new battery and stick it in my phone and surprisingly i turned it on and if started booting. After it turned on I noticed that out said it had no service, but other than that all of my sensors and hardware all work. I know that it is not the Sims card reader that is broken because it can still give me the sim card information when I put it in my phone. Could this be the antenna, or something else?
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] milan187:
Could be so many things. You can check that your antenna is making good contact but it's also likely one of the radio chips fried.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kerfun:
Any idea where would the antenna connectors be?
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] milan187:
Not on this phone. Maybe someone else does. There is usually prongs on a back door that need to make a connection.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kerfun:
So I cleaned all of the contacts with alcohol but to no avail. If it is one of my radio chips that is fried could I get a new motherboard?
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bblzd:
Replacing the motherboard is usually close to the cost of buying a new device from what I've seen.

When I put it in my phone it showed that I had a few bars but didn't say anything like 4g or LTE. So I tried to make a call and it still doesn't work.

Is it still a hardware issue?

Hey XDA,

I just recently purchased a AT&T S7 (SM-G930A). I also just recently found out that AT&T doesn't push updates to non AT&T network phones. I am using the phone with T-Mobile and I was wondering if it was possible to flash the T-Mobile stock rom without tripping Knox or anything of that sort. I remember being able to do this to my AT&T Note 2 back in the day. If it is possible, can someone kindly link me to the file and instructions on how to flash the stock ROM from T-Mobile? Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] goofwear:
DO NOT DO IT . I believe AT&T has the exynos processor and I know for a fact T-Mobile has the Snapdragon processor I'm pretty sure you will perma brick your phone. Tmobile also has a locked bootlaoder.

Just change your APN settings
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] IbbiAnsi:
Actually, I posted this in the AT&T forum as well and they said it work fine and it did. The phones are identical. The problem is that I can't go back to AT&T stock because AT&T is still on BL V2 while T-Mobile is on BL V3. I flashed anyway and it worked fine. Make sure to use Odin 3.12 from the Verizon Root Guide!

You can, however once you do you can't go back. It may be possible in the future, but Tmobile has a v3 bootloader, and AT&T is still on v2 bootloader.

When attempting to flash using Odin 3.12.3, I get this error in the log:

FAIL! SHA256 is invalid

So TMobile ROM on 930A . Any issues ? Did you try going back to AT&T ROM

All that talk out bootloader versions and not able to restore back to AT&T ROM

Can you odin Unlocked 930U version ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] hugeadrian:
I'm using Cricket on AT&T S7 variant and I couldn't get any update from AT&T, which pissed me off. So I decided to flash G930U firmware and I succeeded. But unfortunately, there isn't a single G930U update been released so far, which is quite surprising.

Other than the update, I'm extremely satisfied with the new firmware. It's so fast and clean comparing to my previous bloated AT&T firmware, free of all kinds of overheating, battery dropping, slowing down, crashing, auto-restarting, bugs and lags (Just so you know, my G930A firmware was the newest. I had to take my phone to Best Buy to update. And I used PDP to disable bloatwares). I highly recommend everyone to flash G930U. The new firmware also has an APP called Samsung+. It's very useful and it tells you if it detected slow charging, or reminds you to restart your phone if it hasn't been restarted for a while, etc.

I'm still wondering if I can receive OTA after flashing anther variant firmware, but I can't confirm since there's no update for G930U yet. I'm curious to know if OP could receive any T-Mobile update after flashing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] IbbiAnsi:
No issues at all so far. Works perfectly. I don't really want to go back to the stock ATT ROM because I don't need it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] IbbiAnsi:
I flashed to the latest update of the ROM so I can't prove it works. But from what I've heard, after flashing the ROM you need to factory reset the phone so it can unregister from att and register to whatever carrier you are using it on. I am not sure how true this is but I read it somewhere and it seems to make sense.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] kuduku:
if you ever switch ROMs please check about the issue of bootloader version and not able to revert back .

Not able to revert back is the only issue keeping me from odin to T mobile ROM

If bootloader version is a problem then you cannot flash 930U firmware also

Is that so ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] IbbiAnsi:
I'm not sure what bootloader the G930U has. The att ROM has v2. If it's newer than that, then downgrading isn't possible. Is its the same, then it should be fine.

930A and 930U both have to be similar bootloader , thats why we could change ROMs

I think the n7 port is on the regular s7 forum. And as far as t-mobile rom, just the stock firmware
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] hugeadrian:
I think you misunderstood. G930U is the unlocked version in US market, not T-Mobile version ;)

T-Mobile firmware is also full of garbage IMO, and you cannot flash back to any other firmwares since it uses higher version of bootloader.

But I do recommend you to flash G930U no matter what carrier you are using.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] IbbiAnsi:
What other benefits are there besides no bloatware? Does it get updates faster? Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] hugeadrian:
Unfortunately it doesn't, at least for now. Samsung hasn't pushed any new update since releasing of the phone. I had some annoying problems while using G930A firmware and I mentioned them in my first post.

It feels like G930U firmware is stabler, cooler and faster.

One more example, while playing games (like war robots, NBA live mobile) in G930A, my phone got hot fast and started to lag after some time, but heat and lag are mostly gone now.

You can download the firmware here: http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?record=12A35B71590D11E6B055FA163EE8F90B

And use the odin from root thread to bypass SHA256 verification. I also logged out of my Google account and removed fingerprint and password lock before flashing just to be safe.
