[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] ozkanb:
At the moment my OP3 is flashed with the community build of 30 August 2016. I'm really happy with it. But as you may know, nearly every week a newer version of the community build is released.

How can I flash the most recent version to my smartphone without wiping my personal data and apps? If I try with the update functionality of my smartphone it doesn't update... At the moment I'm trying once more to update using my smartphone (it's downloading) but I don't think it will help.

Isn't there any option to update to the latest version of the community build (28 September 2016) using TWRP without wiping? Actually my smartphone was also rooted and other stuff but after flashing the community build, my root is gone. But it's not a problem at the moment, I'm happy with OxygenOS :).

There is also something called local upgrade in my Android Settings, I have no idea how it works. When I choose it, it says: 'Move installation package into SD card root directory'. So does it mean that I have to place the latest downloaded build in the root dir and it will then show up?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] ozkanb:
oh it worked using the update itself...

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] AG22:
Hello, everyone.

I have a Nexus 5X. The phone is good, but when I bought I was expecting a better battery life and perfomance (before Nexus 5X, I had a Galaxy S6). Now I wonder if it worth the upgrade: sell my N5X and buy a Galaxy S7 (flat).

Is the Galaxy S7 flat really better then Galaxy S6/Nexus 5X? I mean, battery, perfomance, etc?

Would I have to do several tweaks to get 5h SoT or I can reach that full stock with moderate use (Chrome browsing, Whatsapp and Facebook)?

Whay are the pros and cons of this beautiful phone?

About updates: will Galaxy S7 receive Android O?

Thanks in advance, I appreciate your help.

Best Regards.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Revontheus:
Coming from the Nexus 5X here are the Pros and Cons of getting the S7 Flat

First, I would recommend you get the Exynos Variant. Don't waste your time on the Snapdragon Variant as the bootloader is locked, and the Exynos Variant was proven to be more battery friendly on multiple tests ( Source: GSM Arena )

Pros

--> Better Battery Life, 3000mAh

--> Amazing Display ( 2k vs 1080p of Nexus 5X ) not to mention its Amoled so colors really look punchy and blacks are real deep

--> Fluid and fast

--> Camera is one of the best I've used and If I'm not mistaken the best right now in its league

--> Device feels premium and solid when you hold it

--> Monthly Software Updates

Cons

--> Speaker sounds horrible, very flat sound even with Viper4Android and other Audio Mods

--> Without case, device feels slippery as the back is made out of glass

--> Non-removable battery

--> Snapdragon Variant has locked bootloader ( which you can't unlock )

--> Price

TL;DR - It's a really great phone, and the difference coming from the Nexus 5X is really noticeable. I recommend you get the S7 Exynos, its worth every dollar.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] AG22:
Thank you!

About cons you mencioned:

1- Nexus 5X's speaker are not that good as well, but it's not crucial...

2- I always use a case, even on my old iPhone 5S, my old G S6 and now on Nexus 5X :D

3- My other option would be iPhone 6S, which is also non-removable (like my Nexus 5X :D)

4- I'll try to find the Exysnos version

So the battery is really noticeable if compared to Nexus 5X and my old Galaxy S6, right?

Screen and perfomance I know, it's fantastic!

Again, I appreciate your time.

Regards
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Revontheus:
Yes, I come from the Z3 Compact which if you do some research has phenomenal battery life ( Around 101h based on GSM Arena's Test ). The S7 has solid battery life, I use it mostly to browse the net and watch anime via MX Player and I get around 30-40% at the end of the day. Your usage patterns might vary but it will comfortably get you through the day.

Please don't get the Snapdragon Version, the Exynos S7 is far better compared to the Snapdragon in terms of efficiency, multitasking and battery life. The Snapdragon Version excels in Single Core Benchmarks and the GPU is slightly more powerful on paper. On real life usage, tests have shown a difference of 1-2 Fps in games which is really not that significant ( GSM Arena Tests )

You might have a hard time looking for a screen protector as the S7 has 2.5D Glass which means the sides are slightly curved, due to this, there aren't any tempered glass that covers the whole display. Although protective films with Self-healing tech such as Armorsuit's offering is case friendly. Most screen covers get pushed by the case therefore causing bubbles, but Armorsuit and IQ Shield are AFAIK case friendly.

Goodluck and I hope you enjoy your new device! :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] AG22:
I guess here in Brazil, the version that is sold is the Exynos version.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] benchMarc:
Today i discovered something weird. Normally i always start the program list from start -> programs. When i scroll through the list it reacts really slow. Today i started the program menu from the HTC Home starter menu. That's the icon right next to the weather icon. When i start the program menu that way scrolling goes really smooth.

Is there someone who can figure this out?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jym04:
Wow I can confirm that. Really weird.

Always thought that this had to do with the lack of graphic drivers...

***Prays that there's a hidden driver that acts when things are loaded from the Launcher tab*** :rolleyes:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] RPG0:
I also tested and it's true. I think it's a different application, one that caches the icons at start, but still...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] omikr0n:
Yes! Finaly something positive about TyTN2. Works for me, too. Great find, BenchMarc.

Anyone has got an idea how to map this to Start->Programs ?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] RavenY2K3:
Just done it on my (stock rom) Vario 3, that is really wierd, and theres nothing in taks manager to suggest its a different program though?

:confused:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] omikr0n:
It IS a different program.

Try this:

1. Start (HTC) Programs from HTC HomePlugin

2. Start (Windows Mobile) Programs from Start->Programs

3. Now when you minimize (Windows Mobile) Programs by tapping [X] (HTC) Programs will still be underneath it. This wouldn't happen if they were the same application.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Bratag:

By the pause that occurs before it launches it appears to be pre-caching the icons. Any way to link directly to this program, so I can map it to a button?

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] mreaglejr:
yeah, it's a different app!

(if you open programs from htc home and you go into the games dir there's an X button to close and not an OK) :D

anyway, do u guys know why is that touchflo scrolling in the "programs" app is not like in a different app? i mean.. for example in contacts, or messages its smooth and its similar to iphone. but on the programs screen its not that realistic. for me, its scrolling almost 2 times faster than i drag my finger.

Hi

I manually updated my M8 (un rooted) to 6.00 using google play addition. i live in UK but think this update is US version don't know if that matters.

had to update manually as kept getting no updates available message. bought phone from ebay over a year ago now and was told by HTC representative on their site chat that phone is genuine but software is not original (don't know what that means and he wouldn't give much away)

Kernel 3.4-perf-gd7aafa47 android gpe#1

build number MRA58K.H15 release keys

so now I've updated i can no longer see my version of sense as it no longer gives me that info. so I am thinking maybe it needs installing. Have lost my motion gesture options. i only have double tap to wake (can no longer double tap to sleep)

also lost the HTC music player which i thought was superb as i could change tracks without unlocking screen. tried installing that with an apk but wouldn't work.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
The info you provided, was not what was asked for. And not sufficient to provide proper guidance.

You need to do fastboot getvar all, and post the results,

deleting

IMEI and serial number. He was

not askin

g for IMEI and serial number.

Meaning you should not have posted your IMEI and serial number. Those are personal info, which should never be posted online. And further, they are not needed in order for us to help you.

GPE by definition does not include Sense, and you just can't "install it" on a GPE converted phone. As previously commented, you would need to reverse the conversion, and convert back to Sense using RUU.

---------- Post added at 09:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:15 AM ----------

That means it wasn't a GPE phone originally (from the factory), and either you or a previous owned hacked (software modifications) to make it s-off, SuperCID 11111111, and GPE.

As you mention you "manually updated" to GPE, it to me implies you did the modifications. But if that is not the case, you should clarify what you meant by that.

Was it GPE when you received/bought the phone?

It was definitely hacked/modified, if not by you, then the previous owner.

Not necessarily a bad thing. But you'll need to go through some steps to get it back to Sense. You'll probably need to change your MID, then flash the desired Marshmallow firmware, then RUU. What version firmware and RUU depends on what version (CID) you want to "convert" to. Unbranded Euro may be the best bet. But it depends on what bands your carrier uses for 3G and LTE.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Most likely, yes. Do you know what bands EE uses for 3G and LTE?

Its slightly complicated. You'll need to use adb and fastboot. Make sure you understand all the steps,

before

you do them. Enter all commands

as stated in the guides.

Obviously, you should be sure that you want to "convert" back to Sense before undertaking what is a significantly lengthy process. The good thing about being on the Sense partitions scheme, is that you can still flash GPE based custom ROMs, you just won't have the GPE partitions scheme (smaller OS/system partitions makes user data partition slightly larger) or GPE updates (although there probably won't be any major updates at this point, anyway).

I forgot you were not rooted. You need to be rooted to do this, that is what su (superuser) means.

You'll need to flash custom recovery TWRP, using the instructions here (also use the latest version TWRP 3.0.2 at the "Downloads" link): https://twrp.me/devices/htconem8gsm.html

Then download the SuperSU zip 2.78 from here (use the link for TWRP flashable zip): http://xdaforums.com/apps/supersu/stable-2016-09-01supersu-v2-78-release-t3452703

After that, you will be rooted, and should be able to proceed with changing MID.
