In the article, it says it is for Koodo Mobile but the download link references "BMC" which is Bell Mobibility.

According to sammobile and samsung-updates.com, there is no MM release.

The PDA from the IB Times website is N900W8VLU2DPG1 which seems to match the LP PDA from sammobile.com which is also N900W8VLU2DPG1

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] dazed1:
Hi guys, this is my second Samsung device in my life, and i have never rooted or im familiar in depth with the firmwares and what is the difference from 1 to another.

So currently im on this one,

Model	SM-G935F

Model name	Galaxy S7 edge

Version	Android 6.0.1

Changelist	8206888

Build date	Mon, 04 Jul 2016 08:33:56 +0000

Security Patch Level	2016-07-01

PDA	G935FXXS1APG2

CSC	G935FMBM1APE1

And i can see that the latest version is this one on SAMMOB

Model	SM-G935F

Model name	Galaxy S7 edge

Country	Switzerland

Version	Android 6.0.1

Changelist	8888212

Build date	Tue, 09 Aug 2016 09:50:34 +0000

Security Patch Level	2016-08-01

Product code	AUT

PDA	G935FXXU1BPH6

CSC	G935FAUT1BPH1

Can i use this firmware, and if yes, will the language - software be somehow optimized for Switzerland networks or something? can i flash it without root? what is the process? any benefits of this firmware compared to mine - current G935FXXS1APG2 - should i flash - G935FXXU1BPH6? thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] dazed1:
Anyone?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] pradeepd:
Yes you can flash, you are on 935F International model, so yes. You don't need to root to flash via ODIN. Generally speaking region based ROM's are more optimized for language, LTE bands, but the rest of the release notes are more or less the same across regions.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] dazed1:
Thanks my friend. Any benefits from this firmware, or its mostly the same? what are the differences?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] dazed1:
Anyone can chim in?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] LightspeeDLee:
i know i'm late but i wanna chime in cuz noone else has. If the model's the same, you can flash any of it & it will work just fine, data/calls etc no problems. The only things is that you'll get the latest security patches from Google if you flash it. Oh, using Odin to flash stock firmware will never trip the Knox counter and it is almost impossible to mess it up totally. I mean at worst, you did it wrong and it fails, or you have to flash it again.

Also getting a newer firmware can give you bug fixes & newer features too sometimes. Choosing your region/countries CSC might help for Languages for the keyboard etc, but not really needed, just as long as you flash International sm-G935F with another sm-g935F. hope this helps
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] joey_xda:
My AT&T Galaxy S5 (Lollipop) says there is an "update available, connect to wifi". Its 895MB so I'm assuming its MM.

Any problems going to MM from Lollipop ? How can I find if all my apps are compatible with MM ?

I just turned on wifi and it started to download. I turned off wifi for now so it stopped.

Have they addressed most of the bugs with MM ?

These may be dumb questions, but I hate to change things when they are going good as they are...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] norbarb:
here is ifo on update log : https://www.att.com/devicehowto/tut...tep_KB424848?make=Samsung&model=GalaxyS5G900A
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] securityRx:
After seeing the update availability on Sunday night (8/28), my wife and I downloaded and updated both of our S5s with the 895mb file from AT&T. Downloads took a little over an hour and updates about 20 minutes. No obvious problems and both phones seem as or more stable than with 5.1.1. Battery usage seems dramatically improved as well. We've each run through most of our favorite apps and nothing seems amiss.

Getting reading to change our SD cards to adoptable (internal storage) tonight. Hopefully that goes well.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] joey_xda:
Hi, its been a few days since you upgraded to MM. Any problems come up ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] securityRx:
No problems and although some people are saying battery life is unchanged from 5.1.1, that is definitely not the experience I'm having. My use is fairly consistent from day-to-day and I find i have about 20% more battery life left at the end of the day. However, I do no gaming of any kind and video is generally limited to youtube technical stuff and an occasional movie trailer.

Again, the experience is certainly not less than before the upgrade.

One disappointment however. Samsung does not support using the SD as an internal device, even though the OS does.

I'm now looking into rooting the device, but it seems a little early since MM was just released.

S
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] joey_xda:
Thanks for the update.

So the phone does not see the SD card anymore with MM ?

I thought the AT&T version couldn't be rooted because the bootloader is locked..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] securityRx:
I can see the SD card just like before, but one of the features of MM is to allow the SD card to be treated as internal storage so that apps can be loaded there. Unfortunately, Samsung has somehow caused this to be disabled on their devices (even on the S7 with MM). Rooting would be the only way past that as far as I know.

I believe there are instructions here on xda to root an AT&T S5, but only with KitKat at this point.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] joey_xda:
I was reading in another thread that Mobile Hot Spot is now disabled. Since your on AT&T, can you check on your phone to see if Mobile Hot Spot still works. Thx
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] johnnynmonic:
Hotspot works for me. Unlocked, on another carrier though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] securityRx:
Since I use a MiFi for connectivity, I've never used the Mobile Hot Spot and don't have it on my plan.

I did check my phone for availability, however, and it's right there in Network settings. If I attempt to turn it on it just tells me I need to go to AT&T to get a plan. If you have a plan it should work.

S
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] joey_xda:
I'm on a mobile share plan which says it includes Mobile Hotspot (which I have been using without a problem). Just wanted to make sure MM didn't screw it up. Thanks for checking. I guess I'll update it this weekend and see how everything goes :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] securityRx:
Good luck and let us know how it goes.

[General Topics] pcwizzy37:
Hey guys, I made a bootanimation binary with sound support. I built this for Android 4.2.2 (CM10.1). It uses the stagefright binary to play the audio, so make sure you have it.

The prebuilt binary is for armv7 devices

download/source: https://github.com/pcwizzy37/bootanimation-audio

You can also extract the prebuilt binary and audio from the attached zip.

To install:

Backup! Copy /system/bin/bootanimation to /data/local.

Remove! Delete /system/bin/bootanimation.

Add binary! Copy the downloaded prebuilt (or your own build) bootanimation binary to /system/bin.

Set permissions! Set the /system/bin/bootanimation permissions to 755.

Add sound! Copy the downloaded bootsound to /system media, and set permissions to 755.

Run! Use adb shell, then su, then bootanimation. Or just reboot.

Please give a thanks if this helped you!

[Xperia Z1 General] Michael4407:
I know this is an old topic, but i just re-flashed KitKat .ftf file today (C6903_14.6.A.0.368_TW.ftf, because i lost root along the custom ROM-flashing madness :D), and i noticed that the Camera on the KitKat firmware is so much smoother and faster than on stock Lollipop, and so much much better the custom 6.0 ROMs for that matter (albeit they suffer from a known Camera problem). Now that i'm flashing back to stock 5.1.1, does anyone know how to optimize the camera app? It just seems a little unfair that the camera on 4.4.4 gives you such a better experience than the one on 5.1.1.

P.S: I have unlocked the bootloader, but the Kitkat Camera app is unaffected.
[Xperia Z1 General] Gamer4Life:
Lollipop is better
[Xperia Z1 General] Michael4407:
yeah, it would seem LP camera works better in lowlight. i'm trying the Camera app on Kryptonian ROM, which is ported from Xperia X, btw.
[Xperia Z1 General] The Bankshooter:
I will try to make this quick and clear: Since the battery change for my Z1 the rear glass didnt get well glued, so the flash light interfere with the camera, the pictures taken with flash were very ugly, so every picture i take, i make it without flash, and i dont know how neither why but the camera takes light from nowhere and it gives to me very clear pictures, like if you have a lightbulb in front, i have very clear pictures, i must say that i am using a custom rom (mx rom 8.5)
[Xperia Z1 General] benplay64:
I had this problem too and I removed the back glass, I washed the camera and the glass and then I glued it with glass glue. Now it is perfect
[Xperia Z1 General] helpplease123:
Kitkat camera viewfinder is much smoother than Lollipop. I didn't notice any other difference but that was the most obvious one. Thankfully there's a nice mod here that makes the viewfinder crazy fast again in Lollipop so there. Anyway, I cleaned up my lens with a small amount of toothpaste, and everything went better, shots were more clear, no more blurs, etc.
[Xperia Z1 General] The Bankshooter:
MX ROM camera vs Snapchat camera. There are a huge difference

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdroid666:
just got this phone so many things are pissing me off already , how do i make it behave like lolipop?

1st problem, navigation button do not rotate in landscape mode, how can i make them rotate tot he bottom when in landscape mode, do i need an xposed module, gravity box or can i do it another way?

2nd problem how can i make the home screen rotate , someone said there was an option in google now launcher settings, there is not, i updated the app and still not here, and besides i want to use nova launcher

3rd problem, volume rocker buttons do not invert when in landscape mode, how do i fix it?

4th problem , can't switch on wifi and hotspot at the same time switching on one switches off the other

i have done this in android before not sure if it is a device issue or or because of marshmallow

1st time using marshamallow and i hate it , can i just flash a lolipop rom to this thing ? are there any custom lolipop roms , this OS sucks and i bet nougat will be even worse
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] helioXverse:
1: I believe you need tablet mode or an equivalent to get nav buttons on the bottom of the screen in landscape. I don't ever remember a phone doing that with out a tablet mode tweak.

2: if you have auto rotate on and install nova, nova should rotate when you set it in nova settings.

3: volume rockers rotating is in most custom roms, id say gravity box or another Xposed module will accomplish that. I don't use Xposed so I can't swear to it.

4: I've never seen any of my prior nexus phones or any android phone be able to connect to a wifi network, and be broadcasting a mobile hot spot. There is only 1 wifi chip, and can only connect to one network at a time, be it connect to wifi or broadcast a wifi hotspot. You might be able to USB tether and connect to wifi, but that's the only way I see it being possible.

There is no lollipop for this phone, as it released with marshmallow. I very seriously doubt it's even possible to build a lollipop rom for this phone.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdroid666:
so there is no xposed module to get the buttons to the bottom?, you think google would have had this as an option since this is a phablet and the biggest one on the market at that , it really makes no sense for the buttons to not rotate to the bottom on a device of this size

i looked in google now launcher settings and there was no option to set home screen rotation to on

i have seem some articles saying it is in there on the 6p but it was not there on the version that was preinstalled on my phone , so i update google now launcher and it is still not in there ,unless it was only there in a version or 2 that were released between the one i had and the one i updated to ,unless google added it and took it out again , like they did with chrome merge tabs to apps option

i could not find the option, but i read in an article that it will only work with google now launcher anyways

unless there is an xposed module to fix it

about the wifi and hotspot , my dad has a POS samsung galaxy avant form metro PCS

he has not wifi network, i got him a chromecast but he has no home internet

and i was able to setup the chromecast and cast to it using only his phone, both as a wifi hotspot for the CC

and to cast to it at the same time, without either being connected to any wifi network

so if i travel to a vacation spot that has a tv but no wifi network i will not be able to take my CC and use it

with this phone,

his crappy samsung galaxy avant will let you have both on at the same time it does not disconnect one when you turn on the other,allowing you ti use CC with the one device and no wifi network present, i guess google removed this too sometime in the past wither with kitkat or lolipop not sure which OS that phone is on but it worked
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] helioXverse:
The way you explain using the CC is the definition of a wifi hotspot. You are sharing your cell data to the Chromecast via your wifi. You just turn your hotspot on and the phone will communicate with the CC and it will pull the internet via your cell data. I've never used a Samsung avant, but unless it had 2 wireless adapters in it, you cannot have two wireless networks running at the same time. You should just need to connect the CC to your hotspot and it should just work.

As far as an Xposed module to move the nav bar to the bottom, there may be. I haven't used Xposed other than trying it out when it first came out. Gravity box would be a good place to start looking.

I'm using the newest (still tech unreleased) Google launcher. It's the one showcased for Nougat. It allows rotation by default. You should be able to find it in the themes and apps sub forum here.

You said you wanted to use nova anyway, and I know it will allow rotation, so it shouldn't be an issue for you.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdroid666:
no i am coming from an iphone

i can't deal with IOS, when the memory fills up on the phone you can't just free it up by deleting some photos or videos , you have to backup and restore the phone with itunes ,which is ridiculous and i hate using itunes for anything it's garbage and it never works right

i guess i was expecting stock android on this phone to run like it does on my tablet, i only ever used anroid on TV boxes, and tablets ,and old version on samsung phones but samsung ruins android with their crappy skins and bloat

they should have made options to have the nav buttons rotate to the bottom in landscape mode like it does on a tablet, it's a phablet and a really large one at that so why would anyone not want to have the buttons rotate to the bottom? volume rocker not switching to inverse in landscape is just really poor ,i thought android was all about customization but now i am finding out that i can not customize even simple basic things that should have been included stock anyways , there is no way to get the home screen to rotate to landscape unless i sideload and old version of google now launcher but i want to use nova launcher

no way to get nav buttons to shift to the bottom in landscape unless there is an xposed module or an option in gravity box, from what i read there is a way to invert volume rocker buttons but it won't work in marshmallow yet

why does google include these features on thier OS for tablets but not on their flagship phablet , it just does not make any sense to me
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdroid666:
\yes i had no problem using the CC with the galaxy avant as both hotspot and as a casting device , just phone ,CC and a TV no wifi network or other phone , but i have seen lots of people complaining that they could not get their CC to work like this, they said they needed a wifi network or they needed a second device one to be used as a hotspot and another phone or tablet to connect to the CC to cast from ,because they said they could not their phone to asct a s a hotspot and a casting device simultaneously it worked fine for me after some fiddling around though, but i i have not tried it with the 6p yet , my CC is on my network ,guess i will just have to test it out with just the 6p and CC and no router and see if it works

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultyrunner:
You hate Android on the 6p and you hate iOS. Why don't you root it and try the tweaks you want to make, and STOP COMPLAINING? If you do the tiniest bit of research you'll find mods, kernals, themes, ROMs and scripts to help you do almost anything you want to your phone. I guess it's just much more enjoyable for you to complain and troll for responses.

You've had two threads closed by moderators. You're unpleasant and unhappy and spout a bunch of opinions as though they are fact. Google actually spends hundreds of hours testing interfaces with real users and agonizing over hex codes and pixel-perfect positioning, so the fact that you want something different and think that should be the final word means absolutely nothing. If you don't like it, change it. If you just want to keep complaining, don't bother.

Blocked.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] helioXverse:
I agree. All the issues I see can most probably be solved by root. I tried to help you out, but you still co plain, yet you haven't even attempted to root your phone to try the solutions suggested.

I don't really consider this phone a "phablet" as there are quite a few phones of this size these days. Google decided to go "phone or tablet" route and not dwell on the in between. There are several phones larger than this and they all behave the same way afaik.

We have nexus phones to mod them and tweak them. If you aren't happy with it, buy a Samsung or iPhone, or just bite the bullet and make your phone your own.

I've used nexus devices for 4 generations now, and never had the "problems" you've had. If I did, I'd probably have bought another series of phones. Just read some thread and follow some instructions and you can make your phone exactly what you like.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjotmo:
This is exactly why I went to Roku instead of chromecast. Living in a rural area and no access to high speed internet sucked trying to get the chromecast to work as you need a device connected to the same network to control it. I used an old tablet for awhile, but in the end buying a Roku or fire stick solved it completely since they have their own remotes. Some times we are so spoiled by having endless options it is easy to get mad when something does not work as we think it should.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdroid666:
yes i will root it , and i am anxious to do so , but i need to make sure i research it enough 1st and not ruin my phone and get stuck in a boot loop , that is what i was asking in this thread what can i do once i get root to tweak these things or is it even possibel i was asking if anyone knows of specific xposed modules or gravitybox options or addons to change these things

i just got the phone and only owned lolipop tablets which i have rooted and flashed with custom roms

i have not owned any modern android phones so i was expecting it to be the same on the phone like it is on a tablet, like IOS same on on the phone as it is on the tablet , i was not expecting to not be able to customize things like home screen rotation and nav button rotation, google just does not do things right sometimes

i just got the phone so now i notice all the flaws in it,like the phone app ,it is buggy and it does not recognize left to right or right to left swipe all the time to move between contacts, recent, voicemail some times i have to swipe 5 or 6 times for it to move,

my xiaomi mi band takes forever to synch to the app with bluetooth when it works instantly on my lolipop tablet, little annoying bugs like that are now becoming evident to me, i was really not expecting this

maybe if update it will fix it but i doubt it

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] EasyWorld:
Does anyone have root and xposed working fine on N930F or N930FD?
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] BotoxGod:
Nope hardly not, I tried more than 2 days on the N930F for Xposed (FD is same firmware apparently). Wanams, Official, Systemless Magick. I think it might have to do with Samsung's new OS Grace updates or the fact of encyption. Who knows? Unless someone makes special changes to Kernel or Wanam's Xposed, it will be very hard.

I'm not telling you this for simple fact, Hydra-Rom (Not sure) might be getting closer with own kernel and no doubt that at least some development will happen when Wanam and Chainfire get a Note 7. So my advice is to wait out, backup with titanium backup now that SuperSu works.

And wait until that sweet day or month comes and behold the glory. At least, it's not a Priv in security lockdowns.
