Yeah I was wondering what this is too, I haven't checked it on the Gear VR yet either. Tried uninstalling it but it just comes back. I've frozen it with titanium backup just now. When I get home I'll defrost it and have a little look and see what it's all about.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] BlackHatVisions:
Please keep us updated.

I have read that disabling "facebook app installer" and "facebook app manager" and then uninstalling "Rooms" app won't let "Rooms" get reinstalled. I tried it and it worked. It hasn't come back again.

The three apps i mentioned above all looks legit from Samsung. But i don't trust apps that get installed out of blue. Has Samsung mentioned anything about this? I guess it is a relation app between facebook and Oculus. Probably to support 360 images and videos on facebook to be viewed on Samsung Oculus. Not sure tho
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] omeryounos:
Sure, will check in the evening, what this about. However as pointed above, even Samsung or Oculus has no right to push additional app without user consent. I am pretty sure this is no way a crtical system app which they had to push as everything including VR experience was perfectly fine without it.

Anyways will check it in Gear VR in the evening today.

Guys, I could not test it in Gear VR last evening. However the Facebook app & Oculus Home auto updated last night while I was sleeping. Today morning when I picked up the phone "Rooms" app have disappeared. Seems to me a bug in Oculus of Facebook that it was pushed first and then removed with latest update to either Facebook or Oculus.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] papaandy:
Hi,

my LG-D160 is rooted and with twrp.

In the past i installed an unofficial Cyanogen 11 for LG-D170, which was not fully working. So i restored the backup with twrp which i made before Cyanogenmod flashing with twrp. In the hardware information of android i could see the model name "LG-D170", which is wrong. The phone seems to work.

Now i want to flash stock rom kdz. I use the lg flashtool 2014, Windows 10 64 bit.

If i start into Download Mode / Firmware Update (by pressing the "volume up" button and connection the USB cable + also holding "volume up") and start the LG flashtool 2014. In the flash tool "software upgrade in progress" stops at 2% and tells me to switch of phone, put usb cable .... and to "retry".

Any ideas ? Thank you.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ramiabouzahra:
Try to manually flash the files, see if the volume up mode recognizes your phone in fastboot, if it does, you can try out my tool (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6vSHGXxJIWmVjRVMlRSQW9HWWs) and from there you can manually flash it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
You need to change the info on the build.prop to the correct model before the Flash Tool will work.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] papaandy:
adb shell on my LG-D160 phone:

in /system/build.prop:

ro.product.model=LG-D160 -> So it seems to be right.

So iam confused.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
Looking at an install guide for the cm11 rom, I see that you are supposed to have flashed another bootloader. That is probably the issue here. You would have to see if you can find a way to just flash the stock bootloader and then try the Flash Tool again.

http://xdaforums.com/lg-g2/development-d802/fix-lg-flash-tool-stuck-2-t3031112 - this is for the G2, but wondering if there might be some info there that could help point you in the right direction too.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] papaandy:
I restored my backuped stock boot and recovery partition with the adb shell / dd. The modelname in android -> settings is now correct "LG-D160". The flashtool already stops at 2 % and tell me to "retry".

fastboot devices shows also nothing in the firmware update screen ("power up" button mode) after restore of stock boot and recovery partition.

[Sprint HTC One (M9)] xtrenge82:
Hi there,

I'm kind of stuck right now, my HTC One M9 from Sprint was working as normal, after a while of "Sim Locked Enabled" and without using the phone because of that, some day I turn it on, and just shows the HTC logo and reboots, I am able to use TWRP (2.8.7.0) but I can't install any zip from Stock Rom or Venom, I even tried to upgrade TWRP with different versions but nothing it always saying the E:Unable to mount '/data' or /system, /cache, etc, I can use the installer from Venom Rom and it seems to be ok, but at the end always the same.

I can't use Download/fastboot mode, shows failure.

I am able to use adb commands from my PC but not for fastboot, just sticks with "< waiting for device >".

I don't really know how to work with this anymore, I believe that the problem is those folders?

if yes, is there a way to fix it?

if not, what can I do then?:crying:

Thank you in advance

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] DragosPaul:
I've read somewhere on a rom thread on XDA that the KNOX warranty flag plays no role whatsoever in determining if you get warranty service or not if your device was bought from and you currently live in Europe. Is that correct?

The only reason I want to root is for viper4android since the stock sound is horrible, but I'm not sure I want to risk losing the warranty by rooting.

The device was NOT bought from Samsung, but an authorized reseller.

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] MisterKanister:
No this is NOT correct.

In Austria you will NOT get ANY warranty services from Samsung any more if you've tripped Knox. I can tell you for 100% sure.

So it might depend on the country. But being in Europe is not at all a guarantee for receiving warranty services for rooted devices.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] nitrous²:
Depends on where you live in Europe. Central- and South European countries like Germany, Austria, Italy, Spain, Greece and so on seem to be very strict with very little variations. Almost no chance you're gonna get your device repaired under warranty. Parts of Southeast and Northern Europe are more consumer friendly. I've seen many many reports, across various platforms that devices get repaired under warranty with triggered Knox flags.

No matter what Samsung says regarding Knox, root and warranty, or your retailer regarding root or any alteration of the OS and (statutory-) warranty. Fact is, it's highly questionable to deny warranty in such a case. If Samsung or your retailer denies (statutory-) warranty, before you consult a lawyer you can use the EU Comission's Online Dispute Resolution (Link). In some countries it's unfortunately not available. These are Croatia, Luxembourg, Poland, Romania, Spain. This Resolution Centre is exactly for situations like these.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] sebusmen69:
What do you know about warranty with tripped knox in poland?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] DragosPaul:
I live in Romania so I guess the EU Dispute Resolution does not apply to me lol. I'm wondering, if I were to submit a warranty claim with the reseller, would they then send the phone to Samsung for repair/replacement or would they ( the reseller ) simply exchange the device with another refurbished phone? I'm not sure how the warranty process works with phones like the S7, where repair by anyone other than Samsung is quite difficult.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] nitrous²:
I've only read two reports from Romania. One of a Galaxy Note 3, tripped Knox, proximity sensor not working. Repaired under warranty after user reported to some consumer protection bureau. Another one of a Galaxy S7 Edge, tripped Knox, unknown defect but the user got it repaired under warranty. I'm sorry I can't give source to the reports. I can no longer find them. In both instances it was unclear whether the devices were repaired under regular OEM warranty or statutory warranty.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Faspaiso:
By law, you still have warranty in EU, but if they will actually repair it is totally different. They should, but they probably don't. It took me one year with consumer service to get warranty on my Samsung Galaxy S6.

En EU you have 2 years. You have that deal with your reseller. So if Samsung refuse to repair it when they send it in, they should - by law - pay for the reparation. But well, they don't.. So you gotta fight for it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] lucaoldb:
Hi, I live in Italy and I am a lawyer.

What has been said above by the other users is correct. Theoretically correct.

The Eu resolution actually should apply to that matter, but still most repair centres will deny warranty with tripped Knox. And suing Samsung for a few hundreds Euros wouldn't be very wise. At least in Italy.

Listen to me, I rooted my phone because I am sure I will never brick it, but I would never sue Samsung if the hardware should break, even if I am a lawyer. Too much time and to many expenses required. Not worth to.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] nitrous²:
Why would you sue Samsung? Samsung's warranty is by EU law voluntary and bound to terms and conditions. If you violate the terms, you no longer have warranty. If there's someone to sue, it's your retailer.

Because they deny the "statutory warranty" without adequately proving who is at fault and disregarding EU resolutions regarding software changes on consumer devices.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] lucaoldb:
I was too brief and not clear. I know that it's the reseller that actually denies warranty, but that's why Samsung tells them to behave like that. So it's not an actual choice of the reseller.

Regarding me, I should sue H3g, for example, since I bought the phone from my provider, but they simply ask Samsung if the phone can be replaced or repaired under warranty and nothing more.

So what I said was actually wrong, but still suing H3g is not worth to.

Btw: many people in Italy buy their phone directly from Samsung, we've got some Samsung Stores.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] ProtoDeVNan0:
When I lived in Sweden they fixed my USB port for free(device had tripped Knox). And now when I live in Poland they just said that they won't replace the charging port because my knox is tripped (at the time I didn't even know it cause I bought a used device) and they told me that they will fix it for like 250-300 USD. So I just took it from them and the device was magically working fine! :silly:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] nitrous²:
This applies to EU devices and users in the EU;

Now I understand. Thanks. Online discussions always confused me because people wouldn't differentiate between the voluntary OEM warranty and the statutory RETAILER warranty. Latter one is required and regulated by law. It's the statutory warranty you have to claim in case your OEM states in his terms and conditions that rooting/unlocking the device voids the OEM warranty. To rightfully deny the statutory warranty, your retailer has to conclusively prove that your action of rooting/altering the software of the device has caused the defect/malfunction. Often times, getting his instructions from the OEM, your retailer will simply deny the statutory warrant claim. In the case of Samsung and Knox, their only argument is the KNOX counter in a Samsung device's Bootloader menu as shown below. As any of you can conclude, this is not a valid argument to deny a claim. It does not prove who/what has caused the defect/malfunction. Within the first six months it's your retailers job to prove that the issue was NOT present at the time of delivery and/or caused by customer. After the six month period, it becomes your job to prove the issue WAS PRESENT at time of delivery and/or that you or your actions did not cause the issue. See "Legal Burden Of Proof (Wikipedia Link)".

Please correct me if I'm wrong.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] lucaoldb:
You are definitely right.

Just one thing, if you are not a consumer, warranty is just one year.

Apart from that, a tripped Knox could never break the functionality of the home button or something like it, so that warranty should never be denied in such cases.

But a different hardware issue, let's say a broken chip, could be related to a massive overclock... So they could very likely say that the hardware fault is a consequence of your tinkering with custom software.

I mean, I know that's it's the retailer that must give you the evidence that there is a connection between the hardware issue and you behaviour, but in Italy they simply deny warranty with such arguments. And it's up to you to go on and look for a lawyer, which will prevent most people from doing anything.

I initially said, you would just give it your storage card, but I'm wondering if that's such a good idea, since it would be scanning lots of folder with no relevance to melody. Wouldn't it make sense to give it your mp3 folder, and let it scan there?? Brimming with excitement :).
