[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] yemi2003:
I have Samsung Galaxy S6 G920V (verizon) and i want to change it to stock rom (official rom)

Reason for change: I want to be able to select the network mode separately e.g WCDMA only or LTE only or GSM only.

What I can select currently on it is Global or LTE/CDMA or LTE/GSM/UMTS.

Current version: 6.0.1

Baseband: G920VVRU4CPF4

Build number: MMB29K.G920VVRU4CPF4

Hardware version: G920V.07

Kindly assist with how to go about it or what to download and flash via Odin.

Thanks in anticipation peeps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Franzferdinan51:
Interesting but I doubt you can do this without root and unlocked bootloader
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] yemi2003:
I really don't know.

I will appreciate a confirmed way to do this? The current network mode zaps my battery like when a kid zaps ice cream. :(:(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Mylovetq:
You can use app Radio switcher. I can chose gsm and wcdma only
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] yemi2003:
I got 2 applications to change the hidden network modes.

1. Network

2. Radio Switcher.

Hence, i need not flash or debrand anymore.

Thank you all. This site has been wonderful.

The rom the i tried before is K50a40_S112_150610_ROW, K50a40_S427_160518_ROW and Lenovo_K3_Note_MTK6752_Android_5.0_20150513_(by_xd afirmware.com) . all able to flash and only imei problem cannot be solved by above method.. Oh ya another way that didnt work as well is engineering mode 3646633 .. i put space before the + and after the + also not able.. and also by replacing nvram folder also not working...But when i using this K50-t3s_USR_ST1532_5.219.1_1508061807_MP6V3_CN rom.. but its china version .. no gapps, no multilang, but the imei is working and wont missiing after restart.

Just now i found one thread that format the phone 1st using sp flash then download the rom by using stock rom.. but i using k50a40_s112_150610_ROW (indian rom) but still not working.. Thank you
[K3 Note General] robterza:
Hi, download my app, flash TWRP by the app, click the "UPDATE" button, and you can download K50t5-K50a40 Roms, ready to flash by TWRP.

[K3 Note General] robterza:
If you are still on S112_150610_ROW, download MauiMETA_exe_3G_v8.1516.0

and follow this video and this video. Hope you manage restore your imei.
[K3 Note General] aquilina:
Yes i tried that method before but still not working.. Just now i took out my brother k3 note phone for experiment and format it then download using sp flash and the imei is invalid but i manage to rewrite the imei using Chamelephon (i rooted the phone) and it works.. But why i not able to rewrite my imei for my k3 note.. thats weird.. even i tried using same row rom..
[K3 Note General] gokulraj3:
You root ur phone and login to google play store then download an app named 'chamelephon' which will work perfectly with imei re generation.. I always use it..
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goister:
Hi,

I have a rooted Nexus 5 running a modified AOSP 5.1.1 and CWM Recovery. I wish to update it to the official 6.0.1. I got an update notification and went ahead and downloaded/installed the update, but after the download and upon reboot, CWM recovery informed me that the zip is invalid (signature verification failed or something), and the update was aborted, so the device is still stuck at 5.1.1, and subsequent system updates checks after reboot shows that the device is up to date.

I also wish to change my recovery to TWRP instead since ultimately I want to run Chainfire's suhide.

What do I need to do to go from my current environment (CWM Recovery with modified AOSP 5.1.1) to the new one (TWRP with official 6.0.1 with SuperSU/suhide)?

Make a backup in using Samsung smartswitch or Samsung kies 3

Download odin off the Internet

Go to Samsung website and download USB drivers for s5 verizon

Go to Sammobile. Com and download ok3 or pb1 firmware

Boot phone into download mode

Connect phone to pc by USB cable

Open odin in Odin click ap/pda and choose the firmware you downloaded from sammobile. Com and click start

Then wait for your phone to boot if it gets stuck longer than ten minutes boot into recovery and wipe data and cache and reboot

Set up phone once it boots

To get root go to JrKruse ok3 root method on xda under s5 Verizon section

Hi guys,

sorry for the silly question. I copied a new tool into a folder on my Kaiser. How can I add a shortcut to "Programs" so that I don't need to use the file-explorer to start the tool?

Thanks

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Jewcookie:
Go with the file explorer to the file you want to make a shortcut off. Press and hold, then choose copy.

Then go to the start menu folder and hold your stylus in the map you want to make a shortcut. When the menu comes up you can choose "paste a shortcut".

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsungGs5:
Hi all,

My galaxy s5 is stuck in a reboot loop. It started doing this today around 12:18pm and I can't get it to stay on long enough to back up my data. I took it to AT&T and they basically did nothing but tried a different battery and booted into safe mode. Neither of those options worked. I took it to best buy and the tech installed the latest updated and flashed the ROM (I believe). Still didnt work. She believed the issue was with the battery but didnt have any new ones there to test so I went to batteries plus and tested a brand new battery, still is rebooting. I am home now and just wiped the cache in recovery mode, still not working. Is there anyway at all I can get this phone to turn on long enough to backup my data? Any other commands I can try to clear whatever is causing this? I was not using my phone when this happened. It died at 15% which I didnt make too big a deal of because I know the battery has been weakening, but when I charged it up for a bit then turned it on, this problem started. When I turned it on, I had a text message coming through and then it restarted. As I was able to get it on for a bit that same text kept coming in over and over again so I thought maybe something with the messaging app and I disabled that all together but the problem remains. I hope someone can help me out here. Thank you.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsungGs5:
SOLVED: Samsung Galaxy S5 Reboot Loop

I figured out a workaround and I take full credit because this creative solution was no where to be found on the internet nor did AT&T, Samsung or Best Buy offer any other alternatives aside from wiping the device. This is what I did:

I booted back into Recovery mode and looked through the logs for any indication of what was happening. My assumption was that it was a driver error and so scrolling through the logs I saw an error that said something like fail psy battery. I immediately think maybe its the drivers for power so I thought I'd see how it would respond if I put it in Ultra Power save mode. Thankfully the phone stayed on just long enough for me to put it ultra power save which did work. The phone stopped the reboot cycle it was stuck in but I still was not able to back anything up since the Ultra power save disabled the USB drivers and port. I let it charge up overnight in ultra power save and said I would try regular power save mode in the morning to see if that would also work but this time allow me mass storage access. Well, that worked! I put it in power save and I am backing everything up now as I type. I've got all my pics and now just letting samsung switch do its thing to perform full backup. YAY! I WIN! Hopefully this helps someone else that may have this problem and have tried everything else that is recommended for solving this issue.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aimara:
Don't really get it, what cause the boot loop in the first place? And you are flashing back to which rom?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsungGs5:
I don't know what caused. I wasn't using the phone when it started. I hadn't downloaded any new apps and I wasn't messing around with the OS or system files. The phone battery died at 15%. I plugged in the charger and disconnected when it was at about 28%. I powered the phone on and there were a number of text messages coming through from my friend I was going to lunch with. I opened that message and noticed the text was duplicating itself then it rebooted. Each time I powered it up and got in for a bit that same text was coming through or trying to over and over again. So, I don't know what caused it but I have all of my data backed up and I am going to wipe it now.

Also, the Best Buy tech flashed the ROM so I am not sure which version or anything like that.

[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] vsriram92:
A Smartphone attached to a balloon took to the skies on September-5 in an attempt to set a record for the highest live stream from such a device.

That smartphone is nothing but our Huawei Honor 8. The phone was attached to a weather balloon also carrying a camera and other equipment, and set off from the SSC Esrange Space Center in northern Sweden. The balloon was expected to burst at an altitude of 30,000 metres (98,425 ft) with the device then making its way back to down by parachute.

Peter Lundkvist of Huawei Technologies Sweden said the balloon reached 18,421 metres before bursting.

The basic concept was that no one has ever recorded a live stream from that height and thus, the Huawei Honor 8 would be different. There was also a phone charger (to constantly charge the Huawei Honor 8), a GoPro camera and equipment to regulate the temperature and keep the battery safe sent 30kms into the air. The Huawei Honor 8 was attached with a parachute which would help it land. There was a geographic fence created to cut the balloon with a pyrotechnic cutter if the phone came too close to the ground or if there was any issue with the experiment. The balloon was expected to land after 2 and half hours post which it would be tracked by GPS and picked up by a helicopter.

The only real challenge was the maintaining of constant temperature as the temperatures 30kms above could reach -50 degrees and cuase the phone batteries to burst. Thus, the entire operation was carried out using batteries which were space certified and designed for use in vacuum. The batteries used are generally used on SSCs rocket and balloon missions. Though the balloon was expected to reach a height of 30,000 meters, it burst at 18,421 metres. However, it is still the first time that a live-streaming event has been captured using a phone at this altitude and thus, Huawei folks are confident that the Guinness World Records will consider it as a feat.

Peter Lundkvist, marketing manager for Huawei Device Sweden said, “We wanted to do something extraordinary when launching Honor 8. So why not be the ones to do the highest smartphone livestream ever? Honor as a brand stands for braveness and authenticity. What represents these two elements better than a journey towards space?

Hopefully, Guinness (World Records) will accept this as a world record in highest smartphone live streaming.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlazeMike:
Hey All,

I was recently in a rush to switch off my phone but accidentally turned it on again...

So instead of waiting all the way through the start-up when the Samsung logo appeared I pulled out the battery and put it back in so it would switch off.

I only tried to switch my phone back on later at night, and realised it didn't switch on. I thought the battery was low so I left it to charge for a few hours...

Went back to check, the power charging indicator hadn't shown up and the phone didn't start either.

The wall power, plug and USB cable are fine as I tried with other devices but my phone just won't start

Its been two days and it still hasn't turned back on....

PLEASE HELP!!! :(
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IronRoo:
You've bricked it, probably.

Is there any sign of life? Can you boot into download or recovery?

You'll need to follow one of the bricked threads .......
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlazeMike:
Not that i can tell, tried charging no sign

Tried pushing power button and volume button with wall power and w/o but it wouldn't do anything.

I think that is what recovery mode is...

But what is download?

Also bricked is pretty serious....

Do u think the battery thing caused that?

What can I do now
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IronRoo:
Doesn't sound very promising. Sounds like a hard brick.

recovery is home/vol up/power

download is home/vol down/power

but if it's not showing any signs of life it won't be much help.

If you plug it into your PC does Odin detect it?

If not then sending it for jtag repair is your only chance

(unless your battery was run down past the point it can be recharged and that is why it seems dead)
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sumeruter:
I had a similar situation. No sign of life, no recharging.

However I managed to get it back to life by pulling battery and cable, and putting it back again while holding power (and maybe other buttons) pressed. Had to try some times.

I've not found a one click solution, unfortunately.

The closest to a one click solution is doing a nandroid backup, I use TWRP. However it's not easy to extract single folders to reinstall photos or similar but is good to replace a whole chunk of your system if your phone is not working properly.

I use "my phone explorer" to sync all contacts, calendars, photos etc locally, ie without Google. It will also sync your photos, unlike most backup apps & works with Firefox & Lighting calendar, unlike most backup apps. I also use EasyBackup app. for added safety of contacts etc. but it, like must apps only backsup stock browsers bookmarks, calendars etc. Music I always only pull from my PC so that's backed up. The hard stuff is photos etc from mesaging/chat apps like Signal etc I basically do the following,

So yes I make it hard for myself as I don't just back everything up to Google, just some things.
