The first clue was including "Don't yell at me" in the title of the thread.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] zanderswigan:
I think the issue with the Note 7 is not the battery but the catastrophic firmware issues people have ended up with. My note 7 rebooted constantly for the first few days then got an error that couldn't be fixed. I spent hours trying to recover it but for the past 10 days or so its been sat in its box waiting to go back when my replacement arrives. I'm pretty certain this problem is the real reason they have voluntarily recalled the device. There seem to be many many people who have had the same issue. That being said I can't wait to receive my replacement because when working properly the note 7 is an absolute beast.

It depends solely on what you need I suppose. But for me personally iphones are complete and utter garbage. Apple has a stranglehold over every single aspect of them. Up until the 4s I used to love them but after getting bored I traded the 4s for a Nexus 4 and I've never looked back. Kodi, downloading music on the go and saving it to my library, same with movies, torrents, hell even making ringtones. Iphones need a pc or mac to do those things I really don't get their appeal at all. Weak screen resolution and huge bezels on the plus versions. I could go on. They may be marginally faster bouncing between 12 different apps but that really isn't a requirement for me. If you want a phone that is just for calling whatsapp Facebook etc then I don't know why you wouldn't just get a mid range android or at least a flagship from one of the Chinese manufacturers. Each to their own but for me iphones are nothing but a fashion accessory. And not a very functional one at that.

I pick up an iPhone I wanna puke that's all
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] BarryH_GEG:
I'd hardly put a regional (they all aren't doing it) s/w bug in the same category as a potentially serious h/w defect.

I recommend iPhones to more family, friends, and associates than I do Android. It's purely selfish. As the Android geek amongst my circle I don't want to be their 24/7 tech support slave. For people who don't want to think about technology iPhone's are fantastic. Yes, choice is limited but for those with ADD having "stuff" spoon fed to them isn't a problem it's a solution.

A bit strong but I'm no fan. To me Apple's hypocrisy is surrealistic. They built their brand initially on non-conformism and painted that they were the choice for people seeking independence. At the time it was independence from DOS and Windows but independence none the less. For those too young to remember watch this iconic Apple commercial from 1984. It was a take-off on an Orwellian world where PCs dominated everything. Apple's tag line use to be "think different." See the irony. ;)

[General Questions and Answers] Maufeat:
Hello,

tried to flash a custom OS and root on a ZTE Blade L3. I got CWM Recovery working and flashed a CM12.1 rom on it, after that, it failed to mount all partitions /cache etc. etc. then I restarted the phone and it bootloops + fades white immediatly!

Recovery or Bootloader etc. dont work

If I connenct the phone on my computer it connect, disconnnect, connect, disconnect and so on.

Anyone a solution or idea how I could save that?
[General Questions and Answers] GuestK00238:
I can help you, So first we have to know is it Hard bricked or just Soft bricked, In any case it's not hard to unbrick. Just follow these steps :silly:

1. Download SPFlashTool to your PC https://androidmtk.com/smart-phone-flash-tool

2.Download Drivers for MTK6582 (I hope I wrote the right MTK name) http://www.devfiles.co/download/0InO9P5m/MT65xx_USB_VCOM_DRIVERS.zip

3.Download stock firmware

http://r.srvtrck.com/v1/redirect?ur...ar&ad_t=advertiser&ad_zi=YieldLink&ad_dt=link

IF SOFT BRICKED:

-Update drivers with the one up there in the thread, Open SPFlashTool, Find scatter file (just a file with a .txt extension) and place it in Scatter file area in SPFlashTool (search on YouTube how to use SP), After you did that manually add the files that are missing ( it's usually the recovery and some other files that are missing), Then press download and AFTER that connected your phone with a USB cable! Then wait it to flash :victory: ,

IF HARD BRICKED:

-Remove battery,

-Connect to PC with USB cable

-It probably won't recognise your phone, so we need to enter so called META mode so we could flash the PRELOADER, to make the phone recognisable.

-To enter META mode remove battery( if you didn't), connect as I said up there, and try pressing and holding some buttons, I can't remember the correct combination that enters META mode but I think it was all buttons for 5 seconds, anyway you will know when you entered META mode if your PC recognises a change or if he finds the device :good:

-then enter SPFlashTool and flash the PRELOADER only (hope you know to use SPFlashTool)

-After that disconnect your phone and add battery

-Enter SPFlashTool and Flash whole system (all files except CACHE AND USER)

-You should be done ?

Hope it helps

Here's a total solution

https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=746010030569947486

Flash tool and stock ROM included. Just follow this:

1. unpack

2. run flashtool.exe

3. load scatter

4. click download

5. unplug your battery and plug the phone to your PC via USB

6. wait for process to finish and unplug your phone

7. Boot

P.S. I guess you'll need some drivers. Check the post above.

Good luck!

Hi folks.

Been lurking for a while, but this is my first post.

I've been looking into rooting my SM-G870W (Galaxy S5 Active, Canadian, Telus) for a while now. It's currently updated to Android 6.0.1.

I've read a lot of different information and I've held off on actually trying it because of several posters saying they've bricked their phone or had no luck.

To the best of my knowledge and research, there is no "plug and play" app or program that will root automatically. Is this accurate?

I have read of manual recommendations or guides that say they work.

This site, being the foremost authority as far as I'm concerned, is my last step in research.

Can anyone please advise if this is possible for this phone and version?

If so, is there an existing guide that is reputable that I could follow?

I thank you in advance.

:o
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] windrider42:
A little late to post. But I am having no luck rooting my SM-870W on Telus. I used Odin and the CF-Auto-Root-kltecanactive-kltevlactive-smg870w for Marshmallow 6.0.1

I just end up with "Recovery is SeAndroid enforcing"

I then have to flash back the stock rom

Tomorrow when I have time, I am going to downgrade back to Lollipop to root it. If successful, then I will use Flashfire to update to Marshmallow 6.0.1 and see how that goes.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] windrider42:
Well so far I successfully downgraded my phone back to Lollipop and rerooted it. . Tomorrow or next week will try updating with flashfire
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] windrider42:
I tried again to root marshmallow using flashfire, and it boot looped. So just going to stay on Lollipop and keep rooted. Will probably upgrade phone soon anyway. I don't know how others on youtube etc say they have done it, but it's not working for me.

Hi,

Hey all - special shout out to [MENTION=4840281]stang5litre[/MENTION], who's pulled my ^$% out of the fire in the past...

I'm running a debloated, rooted stock OF1, formerly on the stock OF1 bootloader.

Now, my kids really love Pokemon GO. As many of you already know, it's no longer root-friendly. I did some googling and discovered "Magisk" and "phh superuser."

NOTE TO OTHERS WITH AN OF1 S4: DO NOT INSTALL MAGISK.

Anyway, it all sounded legit, and I used Flashfire to install Magisk, and it ran its little script and all looked well - but on reboot, I now get:

This makes me :crying::crying::crying:

I figure I will take this wrist-slap and reflash the bootloader - except for that the TAR file I got specifically says "no bootloader."

I can get it into download mode. Does a ODIN-able OF1 bootloader-only TAR file exist anywhere? I would love to not have to start from scratch.

Thanks. :fingers-crossed:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rprussell:
That'd be cool - but the one that allegedly is NOBL - no bootloader - fixed whatever was broken. I didn't wipe data, so the phone just leapt back to its badass self, no restore or anything.

I'm pretty fed up with Samsung and their locking stuff down, though. That LG G3 is looking pretty good.

Meanwhile, I just unrooted for now. I figure, this way I can use Android Pay also ;)

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] klabit87:
Ran across this in my feed on Tapatalk (thanks to [MENTION=4840281]stang5litre[/MENTION] haha)

Anyways magisk utilizes systemless root which places root in the kernel instead of system.

Being that the s4 is locked you can't do that since the bootloader will not verify it since it has been tampered.

So don't need to fully Odin back to whichever you need. Only need to Odin the of1 kernel or oc1 kernel. Whichever you need.

If there are none I will make them.

I just can't remember if there are or not

Just to explain the issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rprussell:
That totally explains what happened, then. I'd thought the BL had been patched, but it was the kernel.

I ended up dirty flashing the original NoBL Odin OF1 tar I found (and keep around for just such emergencies, since I can't keep my danged hands off of the thing) and it fixed the kernel and left all my everything else in place. Wish I'd known about the side-effects of "up"grading to OF1 before I did it, I don't like being locked down like this.

Anyway, thanks for the input!

Hi guys.

I gave my nexus 5 to my girlfriend after I bought a new smartphone. I used to run a rom on it. Yesterday she tried to update the official system through the android notification and it's boot looping since then.

This is going to sound REALLY dumb to you guys but I really have Googled a LOT and cannot find an answer.

SO I am expecting to be a oneplus 3 owner sometime next week. I want to get up and running quickly when it arrives so I need to chose my OS.

I want to give OxygenOS a try (I have used CyanogenMod on all my other devices).

What is the difference between OxygenOS Official and OxygenOS Community?

Is one open source? or is the 'community' more of a 'beta' build?

Not looking for suggestions what to run, just want to know the differences between the two OxygenOS variants :)

Cheers alll !!
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] nikhil.agrawal:
oxygen os is the more stable build intended for mass release and community build is sort of a beta software which still has some issues here and there.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Henaway:
I got my OP3 yesterday, and have been debating giving 3.5.2 a try, since the reports are all that it's pretty solid and daily driver worthy. But 3.2.4 has been running so smoothly so far that I think I'm going to just hold off for now. Then again, I could change my mind tomorrow morning and flash all the things.

Ultimately, it comes down to how willing to deal with bugs you are, because it's technically BETA software, and they will be there, and how much you want some of the new features they've rolled in like shooting 1080p 60fps video. That one could be big for you if you shoot much video - because they seem to have the OIS actually working in 1080p now, whereas it is pretty bad in stock 3.2.4.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Monk3y:
The new community build rocks (3.5.2) I had all version and the last community is the best for me, plus you have 60 fps 1080p with camera and its really impressive. The rom is really smooth.

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] TopperGas:
The main problem with the Community Build is if you want OTA updates going forward you have to flash the stable build, once it goes live, meaning you have to start from scratch again.

Given the stable build is only a week or so away, and there's not too many changes in the Community Build you may as well wait for the OTA now, in my view anyway.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Monk3y:
No accent color, but you have dark, light and default theme.

Just because the community build contains the latest updates from OnePlus and it is not heavily tested for any presence of bugs, doesn't mean that it has bugs. The 3.5.2 community build, for instance, has no more bugs than 3.2.4, if any.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Holospark:

I haven't tried the latest 3.5.2 of the community build, but one thing I didn't like when I tried 3.5.1 was the quick settings.

Hi guys,

I have no idea if anyone here has had this problem, but the phone reception of my Nexus 5X is pretty bad when I'm inside a building, or even a vehicle.

Once I step outside it's perfect again.

After some intense 'Googling' I found out there's more people around with this problem and that it may even be so that LG has used hardware in the 5X that causes this problem.

I have no idea if any of this is true, but I wanted to ask if any of you have an idea how to boost the reception of my 5X, or if I'm S.O.L.

On my network, reception has noticably improved versus my N5.

WiFi reception is better too. Also some people had issues with antennas losing contact over time on the N5 that I don't really notice in the 5x forums, I'd say LG made improvements in this area all together.

I have heard of people seeing better reception with different radio versions. Are you using N currently?
