I think that is the route I'm going to. Can you provide me a link of all the otg card reader that u recommend?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] khaos64:
The wireless stick: https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Wire...uters-SDWS4-128G-G46/dp/B00ZCFYF2W?th=1&psc=1

Yea, but the free option is most likely not large enough for the purpose you wish to use it for - so you will need to go with a paid option or find some promotion that'll get you more space.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] williefromthedark:
I'll check out the wireless stick, looks pretty cool and I'll wait for another promotion for dropbox or other cloud service.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Blubber120:
Hi,

just that simple like on the picture, got it from eBay and it was no more than 3€ included shipping costs. Just a no name adapter
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] williefromthedark:
Ah k. I'm about to go to ebay as well
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Henaway:
I have 1TB of OneDrive with my Office subscription, so it's my go-to cloud option.

For OTG, I picked up an Aukey set of two microUSB to Type C adapters and an OTG adapter - no cable, just a solid little adapter - and I've had 64GB USB sticks on it with no issues, even the Logitech USB headset from my computer at work that we use for Skype connected to my OP3 just fine - even the inline volume controls worked! https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B01EWD939O/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 is the link to the set I bought. Very happy with it.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] williefromthedark:
I think i am going more towards a usb c to micro sd card adapter cuz it's less clutter and i don't have to move my files into another sd card, but your otg adapter might be useful as well.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Henaway:
I also have a very very tiny microSD/USB adapter that works very well. I'm all about having adapters for everything! But yeah, a dedicated Type C microSD reader would work well for what you want here.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] corrupt1234:
Wait for some company to make a case with external sd card
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] hkkp:
Memory stick like this is more useful, has usb-c and usb-a on either side for both phone and computer.

I use connect wireless USB drive from sandisk. Fast and perfect for media files, with an auto backup feature for pics and videos from your phone.

There's also a version where you can plug in your SD cards so it can be accessed wirelessly too.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] tdamocles:
I wouldn't go Degoo route. It maybe free now but 80gb in and then they start to charge for their free 100gb and then you either pay or offload all that data(pain in the arse.) Windows offered a free amount a year or 2 ago and then took it back just recently. I didn't have much in that Onedrive service but it pissed me off. Like some one said earlier, 15gb free google...maybe open two gmail accounts...or pay $2 a month 100gb for google but that'll be $2 a month forever unless you don't mind offloading if you ever change.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Explorer23:
I think MEGA with 50GB is a pretty safe choice. It's not a kind of company that would screw over their users like Microsoft, it has great security and it's fast.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] williefromthedark:
I already use mega and it's pretty good and it downloads pretty fast but i don't think 50gb is not enough to store all of my stuff. I think I'll go more towards a usb c to micro sd card adapter, which in my opinion it's more convenient. But I'll still use mega as a backup.

Welcome to XDA Forums!

You could invest in one of those wireless flashdrives. Ive never used one but I hear they work well.

I mainly keep everything I need on the phones storage at all times and if i need access to something that I only use every once in a while, I use OTG for that
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] discomaniac:
I bought a phone that was FRP locked (I know, stupid me) and cannot access the serial number in order to emergency flash it with Smart Switch. Can someone please share their serial number with me so I can reflash it? If not, does anyone have any help? I am on G920PVPU3CPF4
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] iBowToAndroid:
Even doing a SmartSwitch (or Odin) flash won't remove the lock. No amount of flashing or resetting will remove it. The lock is stored in a hidden partition that is never touched by flashes and resets.

There are ways to remove the lock, but they're paid services offered by professionals
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] JeffB81:
I have a similar issue, could this be fixed with a Z3X Box?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] maherwaleed:
you could try this method . . .

if for any reason didn't work try this one

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KRUp09bXnDA
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] discomaniac:
Yes it can be, do you have one?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] JeffB81:
No, but I was able to repair my phone with Odin and the CPI3 firmware. Thank you
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] discomaniac:
You took off FRP lock with software?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] vazersecurity:
Confirm?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] crazynapkinman:
I have read elsewhere that flashing the original firmware the phone was factory installed with can fix the frp lock
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] iBowToAndroid:
Incorrect. FRP is held in a partition that is not touched during a firmware flash
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] crazynapkinman:
Then what about this Cl3? Are there steps after flashing the firmware?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] iBowToAndroid:
Flashing firmware can't fix an FRP lock - period.

If you want to know what that poster meant by his message, I suggest you ask him directly
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] Bullshipcaptcha:
Samsung phones can be frp unlocked by flashing firmware

I have personally FRP unlocked 2 Samsung phones by flashing the stock firmware usin Odin. A samsung j7 and a Samsung s5. I am getting so sick of people saying you can't do something when they have no clue. I have also flashed older versions into phones. That's how I rooted the s5 infact. When everyone was saying it was impossible to root at the time. As soon a I figure out how to use sp flash or something to flash different phones other than Samsung I will post saying how it worked not get on someone else's post and say it will never work it's impossible. The world of computers, phones and software is suppose to be open source not locked, hidden and full of viruses.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] iBowToAndroid:
LOL.

The FRP data is stored in the "persistent" partition, which is never touched by a firmware flash, just like EFS and a bunch of other partitions.

So no.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] Bullshipcaptcha:
That doesn't matter when the phone no longer has a persistent partition.

You obviously think you know something and I wont argue or dispute whether you do or dont but I know what I did for sure and what I did was flash stock firmware into those phones and they where no longer FRP locked afterwards. Also When the phone is bricked the phone is flashed blank. There are no patitions if flashed blank. Even when there is persistent data it's still data that is able to be edited with a custom rom which can be flashed after you flash stock rom. I dont know much but I know what I have done personally. My wife is still using her rooted j7 with note 8 D.N.A undetected that we bought f.r.p. locked.

So ya. Just because the internet says it's not possible doesn't mean it's not possible It just means you haven't tried hard enough to prove it yourself. Brick that phone if you have to. Build with that brick.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] iBowToAndroid:
I own a business that does FRP removals and many other software-related services for mobile devices . I've done this for years - knowing this type of thing is literally my job.

The "persistent" partition is ALWAYS there - just like system, boot, recovery, and all the others. And I promise you, you can't remove an FRP lock by throwing it in Download mode and flashing some firmware with Odin, just like you can't remove it by booting to recovery mode and doing a factory reset. It's just not that easy.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] Bullshipcaptcha:
Your going to need to go against the grain her a moment . Business or no business

I'm telling you. I'm not debating the facts. Im telling you what I did. Kinda like I did today with a Moto e4 play. I bypassed frp with flashing stock rom through Odin and then custom rom on the Samsung J7. Today I bypassed frp lock with twrp on the Moto e4 with the bootloader still saying OEM locked . I don't have a business in the phones field but I am a business man and sittin on 12 frp locked phones gets tire some. Thant goodness for broken digitizers and displays or I'd still have a bunch more of them. I wont dipute that you know what your doing because likely you do more so than I; we can can probably be certain. I'm just going to tell you the 100 percent fact. Upset wife as my motivating factor I successfully unlocked and rooted a j7 by flashing stock rom into it with Odin then custom reccovery then root then custom rom. The custom recovery I used by accident was for a different brand Jay 7 so mysecond time around I tried the "right" recovery and bricked it. Then again and again and again until Knox was tripped and that's when finally I took bl,ap cp, csc and flashed them in dl mode successfully from there I had Rob from simple cell unlock ( Thanks Rob your the best) remotely unlock the jay7 from T-Mobile after which I flashed the "wrong" proper twrp file giving me the ability to install custom note 8 dna rom into the system. Took two tries, first try I flashed no encrypt no verity but it custom rom frp locked. So second time I made sure I install the developer tools package with OEM unlock switch not able to be turned off then no encrypt no verity. It was a very long process since especially since it was only my second successful full root. Then vallet. Man becomes praised by wife. Man feels empowered man tears apart more phones makes mess, MAN HAPPY! WIFE HAPPY! LOL okay sorry about that part.

None the less each developer has a different approach that being said you frp unlocking phones? I have a Samsung s8 Moto e5 five LGs one zte n835 a couple of alcatels and a few more I couple reassemble real quick If I knew some one who had the abilitby to unlock especially if said amazing developer was teaching El padawan young Como. Yo tango mucho programs, apps and software. Just need the knowledge.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] iBowToAndroid:
Thinking you can flash TWRP on a locked bootloader device shows me exactly what your knowledge level is when it comes to all of this. Future discussion would be futile, and no more responses from me will be had. I do wish you luck with your devices though
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] Bullshipcaptcha:
How frustrating you are.

Your business need some schooling it sounds like. Your business can't be doing good. Go ahead and Google the Moto e4 unlock method. You will see. You have to try before you say it won't work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] hatchet13rydin69:
I just removed the frp lock on my s6 using a combination firmware (found here-https://firmware.gem-flash.com/index.php?a=downloads&b=folder&id=7410) which completely erased all partions and allowed me to access the settings menu to enable the OEM unlock setting. They are two different firmware there. I used the second one and it worked like a charm. Hope this helps

I know I'm hella late, but I also tried this with a j7 and it doesn't work. You just made that up to sound good. If I'm wrong, prove it.

[Samsung Gear S2] tbot96:
Hey guys I would like to share an interesting watchface I found on the store a few days ago. So basically the only reason I got the gear S2 was to make my life easier by not having to reach in to my pockets for my phone. But the reality is that you still have to swipe, select and go through various menus just to get to the app you want to use on the gear S2. The watchface is called Customizable Watch with alarm, stopwatch, timer and torch by a developer called Hoseob Lee. The title is pretty much self explanatory and you can access all these functions just from the watch face, so you dont have to swipe and touch more buttons. And the best part is that you can customize the interface and the look of the watchface. It may take some time to get used to but I think its one of the easiest and useful watchfaces on the store once you get used to it.
[Samsung Gear S2] fogerty4evr:
Where did you find it? I can´t find it anywhere.....
[Samsung Gear S2] tbot96:
Search Customizable Watch in the gear store and its an app by a developer named Hoseob Lee. It has 5 star rating

I downloaded one yesterday for free. Animated Matrix Watch. Interesting face an got built-in very brightness flashlight and funny battery indicator.

I had TWRP installed and enrolled in the beta program. I just downloaded the official 7.0 through the push notification and clicked, "Restart and Install." Now, my phone boots automatically into TWRP. I've turned it off, then back on and same thing. Any ideas how to get out of this?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prestige777:
Boot into bootloader from recovery and select start.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wang blur:

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] franticjohny:
Boot to bootloader and flash the stock recovery from factory image. Then boot into stock recovery and the update should start.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dahawthorne:
The same happened to me. Disappointing, since the previews all worked (for me) in TWRP.

I just downloaded the OTA and sideloaded it, flashed TWRP, rebooted into TWRP and installed SuperSU 2.78. Worked fine.

https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/ota#shamu
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RLBL:
May I ask which version of TWRP did you use?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dahawthorne:
twrp-3.0.2-0-shamu.img
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wase4711:
you cant flash an official factory image in twrp..this is a known fact...
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dahawthorne:
Is that comment aimed at me? Did you actually read my post? Can you point me at the relevant part where I get it wrong?

Feel free to apologise any time.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drmuruga:
You are side loaded ota then flash twrp . But in op he was flashed ota via twrp and now os corrupted and he is not able to boot into system. All ota can flashed via stock recovery , i think. He have to flash firmware now via fast boot. Am i correct . If anything wrong ,you can correct.

Everybody should be friends in XDA.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dahawthorne:
It seems that people don't read posts before writing. The OP clearly said that he had applied the OTA. I clearly said that this was exactly what I did with the same result. I also clearly explained what I did to fix it. The next comment should be from the OP saying what he's doing to recover. If he does what I did he'll be fine.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] holeindalip:
He can reinstall stock recovery and side load from there

Either flash the stock recovery.img through twrp or

Flash stock recovery through fastboot or

Install factory image through fastboot

Edit: oops didn't read the entire thread
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] H4X0R46:
To avoid issues, I'd say make sure you're 100% stock, recovery and all before installing an official update. Like I said, just to be sure it won't fail.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biglil1:
I got the the OTA notification before work yesterday. All day at work I was itching to install it but with no PC I couldn't risk it. I was on the DP5 with TWRP, no root, and unlocked. I couldn't wait. I flashed the OTA with TWRP after I restored a backup of when I first installed DP5. TWRP throw a couple of errors but after about 10 minutes of hanging on the boot animation it finally booted. My phone was encrypted but other then that it was fine. I was gonna root it afterwards but I was on stock recovery after flashing the OTA so I couldn't do anything until I got home. Made a noforc-nonverify boot IMG throw on TWRP reformatted. Running great now.

Edit: My DP5 boot.img was also noforc-nonverify.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active Questions & Answers] NotSoMiniGun:
If no one has any answers on the availability of a functioning root for the Samsung Galaxy S7 Active, can some one tell me why the Active series of phones seem to be actively ignored? Is there an extreme difference in hardware? Is it difficult for devs to get their hands on the device? Is there not enough interest?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active Questions & Answers] br0adband:
The basic gist with the Active line is: nobody really cares in terms of development because they're just not popular devices in terms of sales. They're better devices, in my opinion, but that doesn't mean much to anyone else obviously.

Root would be nice to muck around with I suppose, be able to do some more things, run some root-required apps and so on but, I can live without it so far.

The fact that there is no working firmware available from AT&T or Samsung anywhere could have something to do with it as well perhaps. I've been looking for a pure stock image just in case I have issues but so far it's just non-existent and probably always will be unavailable.

The Active models are great devices, just not popular to the majority of buyers unfortunately and that immediately translates into not being popular with developers or the community in general. I'm getting 2.5 days of battery life per charge with at least 7 hours of SOT with this one I have now so I'm a happy camper without any complaints.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active Questions & Answers] xc rider:
I'm only getting 4hrs of sot..... Hmm
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active Questions & Answers] br0adband:
I don't use cellular except when I'm out and about, I use about 40-45% brightness or less (auto brightness when out and about), I have roughly 155 packages disabled with Package Disabler Pro, that's about it.

With a 4000 mAh battery, the GS7A better last as long as mine is lasting or something is absolutely wrong I'd say - it's not that hard to get this kind of battery life and usage but as always YMMV.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active Questions & Answers] rahuldixit2010:
I am also searching for root. I got some link in google search, but they are not working. I bought this unlocked device in India. While it works fine with old network, but it does not work with new network which are purely 4g and use voice over LTE for calls.

Not thing. What did disabled package pro have do with thread. You didn't ? It.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active Questions & Answers] NotSoMiniGun:
Back On Track

While I agree the S7 Active is a fantastic phone with fairly substantial battery life, those merits should be discussed in another thread such as HERE. The main goals of this thread are:

1. Determine if there is an available Root for the Samsung Galaxy S7 Active

2. Determine if any current exploits, for other models, could be modified to Root the S7 Active

- The Galaxy S7 (snapdragon model) Root

- Dirty Cow

- etc.

3. To offer help or a reward to anyone willing to make progress on this topic.

I personally am wiling to donate $50+ to anyone able to provide a legitimate root (or to a charity of their choice).

Please let me know if there is an official way of presenting a bounty or if there is any other way I can help progress this project.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active Questions & Answers] rahuldixit2010:
I fully agree with "Notsominigun". This phone is fantastic in all aspects, but root is very essential in some scenario to utilize its potential, especially those who are using unlocked phone in other network and country. Some features are not working which can be enabled easily by rooting and taking full control of the phone.

I have searched for "Dirty Cow" and found it can be used to root any android device with following steps:

first of all, I apologize for my "English", I had to use google translator.

I am edu present, I'm from Argentina, and was looking for information on how to root the s7 active, no luck, but I found information that perhaps more experienced people can help them find a solution ....

Qualcomm Quadrooter Exploit

QuadRooter Android sounds like another serious security exploit. Which one can allow a malicious app Apparently to gain root access based on Qualcomm Android phones and tablets, enabling the app to do pretty much what Then it pleases. , According to Check Point, the research group discovered That QuadRooter, up to 900 million Android devices Qualcomm Could be AFFECTED. This exploit targets the drivers Qualcomm Which is why it is specific to this hardware. As of the 1st Augusts security update Google has patched 3 of the 4 will patch vulnerabilities and the last one in the September 1st update. To keep your device safe from bugs it is always in Original bests to stay on top of your security updates. One of the best ways to protect your phone from malicious software is to download apps only from trusted sources or google play.

If you want to check and see if your device can possible be vulnerable to this threat Then you can download and run QuadRooter Scanner by check point. Personally I am hoping That a developer can figure out this exploit and use it to get many android users root access. I am sure someone can create a app gets root then a INJECTS That SuperSU and their binary into the device. If you are hoping for the same I recommend not updating to new security patches and give the developers some time to get root access devices.

I would not be surprise to see this QuadRooter vulnerability Implemented into Kingroot app some time soon, as it would make there app on Android devices unstoppable. What do you think about this bug please comment below and let me know.

This information I found in rootjunky.

I hope you can serve something
