Dr Ketan is one of the most respected Samsung devs around here and has made Samsung Roms etc for years, I doubt he'd make this up or fake it to be honest.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] BarryH_GEG:
I've been here for year's too. That doesn't mean you should believe everything I say. From being here that many years I'm well aware of [MENTION=3931450]dr.ketan[/MENTION]. I'm sure he'll be back to 'splain and fill in missing details.

My source is me. After you take an update when the phone reboots the first time it says "Android is upgrading." It counts down the number of files, apps, processes it's updating until it finishes and reboots.

I can let you know that delta airlines and a few airports only advise that the note 7 can't be charged or on while flying. They don't actually check. I just got back from Kansas today after being there since last Sunday and my phone was not checked at all. I even took pix and vids of the sky during flight. Atlanta, Minnesota, Kansas and ct are the state's I flew to/from. Going into tmobile tomorrow to exchange for the replacement.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Er. Aditya:
Exactly there 's alot of possibilities that can s happen just like fake explode reports which were all made up to help down fall of samsung but one really can't help it when device is amazing

Hey bro hote you been ? Then there's an imei checker to finally nail the final drill

He just made his point correct no where said dr ketan is wrong or spreading misleading info

Amazing i an all waiting for indian launch man... Thanks for info shared about airlines
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] dr.ketan:
Lol

If time permits, I will try to show a video with Toggle. Yes Toggle report about battery is safe and unsafe same time. Also this will Toggle the battery icon on power menu ON THE FLY.

My point is how poor coding. If one can Toggle safety report (after this there is no question that one have good or bad battery) then what is meaning of this.

I said never buy OLD DEVICE WHICH IS PREVIOUSLY ROOTED as you never know your device is not fooled. There is no single doubt about Samsung authentic source. Myself using N7 and still going to use after replacement.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] dr.ketan:
That's not difficult at all. Changing color is so easy. Even I said on my rom thread y'day that if you have safe battery and green icon, it can be easily make white. Here no security risk as you are changing safe to unsafe color for your own purpose. This option will be there on my next version of rom as well.

But faking report is another matter, when you apply it and device start charging above 60 % too. What hell is this.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] dr.ketan:
Waning was captured first and then two shots after faking it. For IMEI not possible one can publish in public. There is no possibility one can check physical state from remote so there is no any other option. But now there is a video posted in OP. One can toggle between unsafe and fake safe stat easily. Even battery icon can appear in power menu on the fly! Statusbar is a part of SystemUI so it just needs SystemUI restart to see color changes.

Even worst part is after fake safe device start charging beyond 60%.

PS : There is nothing to prove here but just a question about easy coding, which could be made better like Knox so no one can temper it.

If anyone not happy/agree/find this thread misleading are free to report to moderation team.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Er. Aditya:
i dont know how and why would one do it to mislead users , doc i know its easy but the question is why would one do it
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] dr.ketan:
One most bad use is to resale.

One have bought from Grey market or whatever and when want to sale they just make fool by faking device is safe.

That's why I said don't buy any N7 with tripped knox. Better buy from authentic source only.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] B3501:
If they wanted to keep their old device or couldn't return it and wanted to fly or sell it etc.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Er. Aditya:
agreed but i dont think there are enough out there sellers who are coming here and getting root tuto's but none the less risks are risks and yes buy from official store is the best option
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] lynx2025:
How to get this ? In my country there is no official sumsung store, no way to have refund nor replace unit. Have battery limited for nothing. Need this solution.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] dr.ketan:
As I said earlier there is no way I can explain how it can be done as it may be misused. If someone sale device after making fake icon then security of buyer can be put on risk.

I wish no one should make this method public for safety purpose. Purpose of this thread is to show, one shouldn't buy a old N7 which is rooted earlier (tripped knox) as their device may not be safe in spite it showing green battery.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] hackdrag0n:
Anyone who sells a pre recall phone second hand is probably dodgy anyway. It's not like it costs money to exchange it, so if they haven't bothered to it might well be stolen in the first instance.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] lynx2025:
come on guys!

There is the official package for new units with the logo for safe. Someone not willing to get this safe not opened package is already at risk. And then, how many incidents so far ? for how many million units ?

How many countries with official replacement programs ? just main US, european and asiatic countries. A whole rest of the world is totally out of this system. In all the remaining countries they depend on something like middle east asia and africa. I received a message to contact samsung Gulf to have my unit replaced. How would I traval like earth to moon to get a phone replaced ?

Meantime I just received the forced update limiting the battery and the phone is desperately slow. I was trying to flash a older stock rom to root it and go with a custom rom. Nothing works, rooting, flashing stock roms and so on.

I am about to end with a limited phone with no expectation to have it changed. I even baught it in a border country and the seller just baught the phone has individual in the gulf area and sold it back to me. He will never bother replacing it for me. How many people buy phones this way ? Who will take care of them ?

Let's find solutions together not to suffer for samsung messing up. I am taking any help.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] sourabh.note:
Who asked u to contact Samsung Gulf? Your post is very vague about details. Nothing is clearly stated.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] hackdrag0n:
They didn't even mess up that bad imo. They got supplied with a few faulty batteries and acted quickly to rectify the problem. They even gave me a free phone, which I on sold for $200nzd, as compensation for the hassle. Could have happened to any manufacturer, not all would have handled it as quickly and efficiently as Samsung. Some would have even tried to sweep it under the carpet and leaving us wondering if it was a faulty phone or user error.

This is still the best phone on the market right now, they've done enough to keep me loyal to the Note brand. If it happens again next year I might change my mind but I'm confident that Samsung will be making improvements to their systems and processes as a result of this and that it won't.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Boy Bisaya:
If battery issue is just on quality, fixing (replacing) it would be quick. Consumers then demand that there has to be a way to see that Note7 is not part of the risky batch with battery issue. Then Samsung responded to it by changing the battery icon. For me it's just an indicator. Do I feel confident that my new Note7 is no longer part of the risky batch? Yes. Because Samsung iteself replaced my units. Otherwise, I should have applied for a refund. Will that change how I handle batteries (Lithium-based) and battery based devices? No. No matter from which supplier that battery came from, it is still battery. It packs energy when fully charged and it still is nasty when not handled properly.

A risky Note7 is nothing compared to a 10,000mAh non-UL-certified, god-knows-where-it-was-assembled power bank that some airline passengers carry with them on board.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Er. Aditya:
felt very good after reading 2 most sensible posts related to explosion matter and its great to see how samsung responded to customers , if it had been apple non would have uttered a single word cause thats apple and its the best **** they make every year..i feel there's a bad phase for every company and this hit is not gonna slpw samsung and i am pretty sure next device will have fixed these things and gain alot of lost trust

for me its N7 too , i love this damn device
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] winol:
lynx2025, think before stating facts, only a little number of asiatic countries have recall programs, mexico has a recall program, some, not all, european countries have recall program, be careful when generalizing info
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] lynx2025:
I mean that it's not in all counrtries that there is a replacement program. and I just asking for a solution for all note 7 owners that has phones in countries with no official means to have their phones replaced.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] lynchyy89:
Ok so maybe I'm looking beyond my nose but I couldn't find a thread that explained about rooting the galaxy s7 edge. I rooted my z3 and xperia play but Samsung I believe are different. I've read so many one click root methods from Google I'm unsure what to believe any more, once it has been rooted is it possible to have it where you can root and unroot at will as I use barclays app so every now and again will need to unroot just to sort that bit out.. any help would be greatly appreciated

[General Questions and Answers] dsillydude:
I replaced the screen on my Moto after it broke. Completely successful closed the back but i didn't put the screws i wanted to test it first, but after testing i found out the bottom (back, home and recent apps buttons) doesn't respond to touch, and im sure i never damaged the screen i was so careful and more secure.. so i thought maybe it was just a cable connectors maybe or sumn similar, so i fully reopened again and start to connect all the cables more careful one by one. After i was done before i put the screws again i had to test it, and this is what drives me crazy.. this time the touch was not responding from the bottom to like few more inches up, close to half of the screen i can say,like i made it worse this time, i didn't bother opening again so im here asking for what could be wrong? the screen is super clean never dropped never scratched it was just new one i bought it for like $61,Any ideas as to why that might be wrong here? i want to back up via twrp and root but i cant do it since the bottom wont respond to touch and neither twrp has no rotation feature.

[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] Hagis2k:
I done some mods on my old galaxy s3 and sometimes you can not install the stock apps like that, try to do this:

1. Save the original from /system/app so you have it if needed.

2. Copy the file you edited to the /system/app folder and then change permission to 777 on the apk

in ES File Explorer you reach that by selecting the file and getting properties.

But when it comes to ES File Explorer get an older version new one is full of **** or use root explorer etc.

Most app need to be signed before you can use it. I used to play around with some of the MTCBLUTOOTH.apk and other apk on systems. I have to use ZipSigner to sign it and then put it in the system/app folder of your root directory. Reboot and it should work. Make sure you don't have the old apk file in there otherwise your new one won't show up.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] silbermax:
Hi!

I'm new in WM6 world so my question may be simple but.....

Upon migration from Treo 650 to TyTN II, I've moved all my Calendar from Palm Desktop to Outlook using Calendarmirror.

Then I'm trying to sync it into TyTN.

If I accept to have it sync'ed from 6-months back onwards, it works fine - it takes some few minutes but it works.

Problem is if I want - and I do need - to have ALL my calendar entries copied into TyTN II (which means also item that date back some years). It runs 15-20 minutes before I decide to stop the process. No signs of progress is shown.

I am not sync'ing to a server, just locally.

What is your experience ? Is it common ? Can it be solved somehow ?

Please consider that I have some 2300+ elements in Calendar, a material part of is recurrent.

Thank you for your help.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jonc:
Do you have outlook open when you sync?

If you do, try closing it. I've heard of slowdown issues when you have it open.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] arabbitte:
I have over 6000 calendar entries and syncing does take a LOOONNNGGG time. However, this should be mostly a once-off issue - after this is done, it only syncs the differences. A long time for me may be over an hour.

The only fly in the ointment is when I get the dreaded "changes at server require full resync" (or something that sounds like that), then I just have to wait. And Wait. And wait ...

I have come from the land of Symbian where everybody agreed syncing was cra9, I though life would be so much better on the m side. I was wrong, syncing is cra9 everywhere and - knowing a little about this - I remain pessimistic as to it getting much better in the future :-(
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] galenmd:
I migrated from a 700p and had the same problem. It would just hang on syncing the calendar. I could have tried leaving it there for a couple of hours, but after an hour and no visible progress, I gave up.

I ended-up purging my old appts from my palm and resyncing. I guess I'll never know what the date of my last few haircuts were... ;)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] welxiii:
Hi Everyone,

I seem to have bricked a nexus 2013 wifi. At first, it was having movie playback issues so I restored it to lollipop using factory image on the google site. I decided to get OTA up to the latest MM. So far so good. But I though about putting a custom rom to it. So I installed TWRP 3.02 for flo and flashed PN MM with the recommended GAPPS. Kernel was what came with it. It worked fine until this morning when I realized that the touchscreen was not responding. I went to BL mode and into recovery. TWRP came up but touch was not responding as well.

So, I connected the device to my PC. It now shows unrecognized device. It still charges and all that but It is now stuck on the google logo. when I go to TWRP, touch wont work. I have tried another cable, still the same. My N6 is detected without issues using the same PC and cable. Since there are no drivers, I cannot reflash anything...

Any thoughts? Or am I just lucky to have bricked it? Appreciate any inputs that will be thrown in this direction. Cheers!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] k23m:
Hi, N7 motherboard gets touch, USB, accelerometer and compass data via the wide silver cable which often suffers from poor contact. Please try this first. If it is still not fixed, then in fastboot mode run and post the output of the following commands:

fastboot getvar all
fastboot oem gpt-info
fastboot format cache
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] welxiii:
Thanks for the help. hmm.. i pressed that part and it booted up to PN, touch is working as well. Not sure if that fixed it but if it happens again im gonna try to press that area. however, its still not detecting the device. I see it in Device manager, it says unknown device and will not take any driver, so fastboot is not an option for me atm.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] welxiii:
so just an update. when I was able to boot up, it will not go landscape no matter what. I downloaded check my android and it the tests for compass and sensors were not responding. I decided to open the back cover, it was fairly easy. The thing is I have not the right tools to reseat the silver flex cable and I fear I might damage it, so I tried putting folded paper on to where it connects to on both ends. Now the thing works with landscape and so far, have not experienced touch issues or no boot issues.

I still do not have access to fastboot, though, as it still isnt detected by my computer. so I may have to stick to putting stuff to it over the air. Or should I just reseat that cable? Does it just slide out?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] k23m:
Yes, re-seat the cable, but be careful, disconnect the internal black battery plug first and watch this video about ribbon cable connector handling.

As your main N7 problem is now resolved, we don't need the fastboot commands anymore. The USB detection issue may have something to do with the custom OS you flashed. Also note that N7 has several USB modes of operation with distinct IDs:

Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 9006 - USB\VID_05C6&PID_9006
Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 9008 - USB\VID_05C6&PID_9008
Android Bootloader Interface - USB\VID_18D1&PID_4EE0
Android ADB Interface - USB\VID_18D1&PID_D002
Android ADB Sideload - USB\VID_18D1&PID_D001
MTP or charging mode - USB\VID_18D1&PID_4EE1
PTP mode - USB\VID_18D1&PID_4EE5
MIDI input - USB\VID_18D1&PID_4EE8

What's the VID/PID of the non-detected device?

Does ADB work if you start TWRP?

Have you actually put your N7 in fastboot mode (when off press power+vol.dn)? Does PC detect it?

Is an OTG flash drive recognized?

Maybe Windows has a driver problem - does it work from live Linux?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] noahvt:
I'm also having issues with the sensors not working, I re-seated the cable multiple times already and that fixes it temporarily but it keeps coming back. I even tried to use loads of tape to make sure it never comes off but it still stopped working after about a week
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] k23m:
The next step:

disconnect the ribbon cable from both the mobo AND daughterboard

spray the cable's and PCB connectors' contacts with Electronic Cleaner

reconnect and relock
