[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
ADB commands only works from a booted OS (with the "USB debugging" option turned on) or from a custom recovery (not stock recovery).

You can't access your rom cause your phone is bootlooping

Flashing a custom recovery requires an unlocked bootloader (yours is locked). Unlocking the bootloader will wipe your phone so after unlocking it and booting in a custom recovery, adb will work but there will be no data to backup anymore.

So the only thing left is fastboot commands from the bootloader, and you can't pull data from your phone storage at this stage (security feature, otherwise anyone could backup your phone without your permission, without any password from the bootloader... Thats also why your phone is wiped when unlocking the bootloader, otherwise you could bypass the password to steal data from a custom recovery)

You don't need any Media pack to use fastboot/adb/mtp

It will not affect the sim card at all, the sim card is not even initiated at this stage. the "fastboot getvar all" is a read only command, it will output your phone information. As long as your bootloader is locked (not unlocked or relocked) you warranty is valid.

The ruu you need: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24367857647222996

Instructions how to flash it at post #1 of this thread

If your contacts are stored on the sim card they won't be touched. If you want to backup your contacts, sync them with your google account, hey will even be restored automatically if you change to another phone. You can also remove the sim card if you're scared that something will happen to it when flashing the ruu. Sim card is only needed when the phone is booted in the OS.

... I then powered down afterwards and restarted and it seemed like nothing changed. It still seems to just be stuck on the white HTC screen.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SLY985:
I could be wrong, unfortunately my computer shut down to do an automatic update so I couldn't try something but I overlooked the step about downloading the HTC specific fastboot.exe so I downloaded that and I'm going to rerun the flash and post on here.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
If you got "flash zip complete" at the end, everything worked correctly. It's normal that some sbl images were bypassed.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SLY985:
Alright, so after all of that I shutdown the phone from the fastboot screen and left it a lone for a little. I then turned the phone back on with NO sim card and it seems that the phone is still just sitting on the white HTC screen....
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
How long did you waited? The first boot after flashing can be longer than usual. You can stop worrying about the sim card, not related.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SLY985:
Ya I found out anyways that contacts aren't stored on the sim card (even though I was told by my service provider they were...) so ya I don't really care about the sim card anymore. And I actually left some place and came back, so I'd say about 20+ minutes or so that it just sat on the white screen. I shut it off unsure of what to do and I wasn't sure how I should proceed. I just turned the phone back on and I'll leave it on to see if anything happens but I'm not sure if it'll boot up.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SLY985:
Alright so I've now had the phone on since I last posted, and its still just sitting on the white HTC screen. Not sure what to do, should I attempt to flash it again? And what steps should I take? I feel that other post describing how to flash wasn't very clear on what to do before and after flashing.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
Flash the ruu again:

fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip "file-name".zip
fastboot reboot

If the ruu is flashing fine again and you're still stuck at the white htc screen, then it might be an hardware problem.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SLY985:
I actually did do that and it seems to still be stuck. I guess I'm just going to send it in, I probably should've done that to start haha but I was curious and wanted to learn about androids anyways

[Moto X Q&A] Josephdbrewer25:
OK so I have the xt1050 variant, bootloader unlocked. LTE isn't fully supported on the GSM side of the phone and no CDMA carriers in my area will activate the phone, the only one that would doesn't exist anymore. I was wondering if I could flash the modem from another variant, could I use LTE on GSM? Or will it mess everything up? If I can do so, which variant do I need to take the NON-HLOS.bin from?

My device info=

My original OS: Android 4.4.2.

My original system version: 161.44.31.ghost_row.

ACG.en.US

Bootloader: 30.B4

Current OS: cm13 nightly 9/21

Another thing, will flashing/updating modem fix the speakerphone bug? Not sure where that comes in but I was reading the forums and saw that it would but I would have to update my bootloader also, and I can't ?
[Moto X Q&A] Salik Iqbal:
As you are bootloader unlocked you can update the gpt partition use any latest gpt partition, i will suggest you can try xt1053 lolipop stock rom for all your above problem. :)
[Moto X Q&A] Josephdbrewer25:
I'd rather stay away from the gpt partition, last time I messed with it, I ended up with a brick. But I will try the NON-HLOS from the xt1053 stock ROM. Thanks for the help ??
[Moto X Q&A] Josephdbrewer25:
Please reply back. I've tried everything I know to get LTE on GSM but it's still sticking with H+. And when trying to flash another variants modem and it still brings up CDMA on here. Any idea why when I'm grabbing the modem from the xt1053 and xt1058. Neither are CDMA.

I went ahead and flash the gpt so the speakerphone works now. That's the only good thing that's come out of me flashing this phone.

I've flashed NON-HLOS and the fsg. From both xt1053 and xt1058 variants. What should I do?
[Moto X Q&A] s5610:
Buy god damn XT1058 :laugh:

Modem exchange gives nothing. And when you speak about LTE, you don't say anything of the bands available on your carrier(s). Get this information first.

XT1050 LTE bands = 700, 1700 MHz (B13/B4)

XT1058 LTE bands = 1900, 1700, 850, 2600, 700 MHz (B2/4/5/7/17)

XT1052 LTE bands = 800, 1800, 2600 MHz (B20/B3/B7)

XT1053 LTE bands = 700, 1700 MHz (B13/B4)

etc.
[Moto X Q&A] Josephdbrewer25:
It's straight talk att network.
[Moto X Q&A] Josephdbrewer25:
But oh well. I love my phone. I'll stick with H+
[Moto X Q&A] s5610:
H+ (HSPA+) not so bad mode. LTE usually doesn't have prefect area cover, and weak signal will force phone to spend more energy on reconnection/switching.

---------- Post added at 09:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:29 PM ----------

Any Moto X can be carrier unlocked. That's US rule from 2014, afaik )
[Moto X Q&A] Josephdbrewer25:
Mine is CDMA unlocked too. But straight talk wouldn't activate the CDMA side because it's not a Verizon or Sprint phone. I know Verizon works and it gets LTE on my phone. So why not on GSM. I noticed when switching to LTE only, it has a lock beside the network. Contacted them and they said it was a device issue. Is LTE locked on the GSM side? This is a weird phone but I love it bc it's bootloader unlocked.
[Moto X Q&A] Josephdbrewer25:
And yes you're right, it's not too bad but it is slower than LTE especially in the browser.
[Moto X Q&A] s5610:
No. Just make sure your carrier supports XT1050 LTE bands.

I would also replace SIM card to newer. It helps sometimes to get LTE.
[Moto X Q&A] Josephdbrewer25:
I've actually tried to flash the radio from different variants. Even the AT&T modem has the lock beside the network. I'm gonna get a new sim but the thing is, I just activated the phone 3 days ago...thanks ?
[Moto X Q&A] Josephdbrewer25:
And I'm on straight talk using at&t towers. Shouldn't the at&t moto x modem work?
[Moto X Q&A] Josephdbrewer25:
I'm on straight talk using at&t towers. Shouldn't the at&t moto x modem work?
[Moto X Q&A] s5610:
I would suggest to forget about modem exchange. It won't give effect, and won't turn on XT1050 into XT1058.
[Moto X Q&A] Josephdbrewer25:
Actually I get better signal when flashing att modem so it does have some effect.
[Moto X Q&A] Josephdbrewer25:
Just for the record I'm not trying to turn my phone into another one, that's impossible. I'm just trying to get LTE. But thanks for your help...

Hi, lets put aside "lol it will blow your house" thing...

The main reason i want this phone is screen (well also having a samsung vr would be interesting)

What do u guys think besides that what reasons u guys wont recommend me to buy this phone?

thanks!
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] teegunn:
It's the best phone currently made, so really no reason not to get it. I think the main thing I don't like is the non-removable battery, which had Samsung put a removable battery in it then the whole recall thing would have been as simple as them sending us a new battery. But overall there is very little to complain about with the phone and a ton of things to like.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Amazingfoxx:
The lack of IR blaster is very disappointing.

The credibility of Samsung after the recall.

How common is this "light leak" issue? My note gets here tomorrow and I want to make sure it doesn't have any build quality issues. I went through 3 s6s and got stuck with one with a wobbly home button and asymmetrical screen.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] alltaken123:
My previous Note 7 had the gap (the same gap described as expansion in the user manual and did indeed leak light) Replacement does not have the expansion gap at all, in fact it is just like the S7 Edge in that it is bonded entirely. Very happy with my replacement.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] DeMi-GoD:
So when I get the phone I just need to check the sides where it curves and make sure the glass is sealed tightly against the metal with no gap?

Also.. Anyone have any luck with a protector working with a case yet? I want the neo hybrid case.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] PsiPhiDan:
Curved screen makes it almost impossible to get a good screen protector and especially a good screen protector/case combination that plays nice. No IR blaster, no removable battery, audio is pretty crappy (standard crappy, not particularly crappy compared to other phones that aren't enhanced like the HTC and LG flagships), curves on screen get annoying when using s-pen, probably will never get s-off... That's about all I can think of. Oh, and occasional lag which I don't think should happen in today's day and age with these processors and RAM amounts. It's probably just Samsung and their TouchWiz... I think the HTC 10 and LG V10 seem smoother, honestly. Not a huge deal though.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Gilley:
This is only reason I can really think of depending on what you are coming from. I had one before the recall and that one was even worse than this one. I get this with my Nexus 6P which is a year old. I love everything else about it, dunno what people are doing to get 4-5 hours of SOT differently than I am.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] force70:
Its the best phone out bar none.

That said i find the edge screen useless and annoying...cant even use a glass screen protector. I would prefer a flat screen.

I would prefer a flat 6" screen actually lol.

Would be nice if it had front firing stereo speakers also....my nexus 6 and 6P kill the note in sound.

Other than that i couldnt think of anything else someone may not like about it.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] DeMi-GoD:
So basically no screen protectors work with a case with the phone. That a major issue for me bcuz I'm ocd and a scratch on the screen will drive me nuts.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] teegunn:
Don't get the Note 7. You've already talked yourself into how terrible it is. In fact, don't get any phone, I don't think there is ever going to be one made that would keep you anywhere near glass half full stage.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] nabbed:
The phone comes with screen protectosr preinstalled. Both back and front.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] ronattack:
One main reason I can think of at least for me is sound quality. Sound quality is not the greatest by far. Hands cover the speaker a lot when holding it. Although it is because the phone is water resistant but still. There is a dual speaker mod though that I have yet to try that could help with this
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] radioraheem2:
i have the phone and i like it, but there are definitely reasons not to buy it.

1: you can get a OnePlus 3 for less than half the price, and the only areas the Note 7 "wins" in are subjective stuff like screen quality (i don't believe the human eye can see the difference between 1080p and quad HD) or "i like having a stylus". the Note 7 camera is better, but mostly in low light situation, and the gap isn't nearly as big as Android blogs (and Samsung owners) make it out to be.

2: TouchWiz has cleaned up but it's still not as smooth as just about every other OS out there. people hate on LG, well i'm using a LG V20 right now and it's definitely smoother and snappier than the Note 7. OnePlus 3 too, is smoother than the Note 7.

with that said, the phone IS beautiful to look at. the edge display give it a really cool bezel-less effect, but it's not practical (edge features are redundant) AND makes the phone more likely to break than "normal" phones.

if money is no issue or you are a gadget geek who just like to own the biggest, most hyped it product (i belong in the this group), then by all means, the Note 7 is a worthy purchase. but to the very average consumer, like, say my middle-aged mom? i wouldn't advise her to buy the note 7 for $850 when there are $400 phones that more than gets the job done for daily use.

---------- Post added at 06:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:02 AM ----------

plastic screen protector works, but yeah, no temper glass ones.

i've tried a few temper glass protectors, they either don't cover the sides, or cover the sides but lack adhesive in the middle, which makes the screen less responsive, especially when typing.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] mankvl:
For me it would be the green battery icon :D All other things I can live with (facepalm)

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] BarryH_GEG:
The battery issue could have happened to any OEM. Producing battery packs isn't rocket science and it's not a component that warrants a lot of scrutiny since the tech hasn't changed in years. There's no evidence that Samsung cut corners and cheaped out on the Note7's battery. Pre-crisis people here would have *****ed if they got a Chinese or Vietnamese built Note7 with a Chinese vs. Samsung battery.

Here's the BOM for the S7. The Note7's is probably similar. Of all the costs for components used to build a S7 the battery is second to the cheapest with only the front facing camera being cheaper. Does anyone really think Samsung would risk the success of a flagship to save $.50 on one of its cheapest components? It happened. Time to get over it.

As for the phone it really is fantastic. The design, the form factor, and performance are excellent. As I posted elsewhere I rebuilt my phone over the weekend from scratch after originally configuring it with Smart Switch. Post-rebuild it's blazing fast with nary a hint of lag in scrolling, app opening/closing, or transitions. In the thread I created discussing Smart Switch vs. build-it-yourself there's some funkiness with Samsung Cloud auto-syncing in the background that may be affecting performance for users and reviewers. The Note7 really is the best Samsung phone I've ever owned and I've owned lots.
