I tried to flash CWM recovery with Odin in a Galaxy Mini 2 and it works, but when I try to reboot the phone go to recovery again. I tryed to flash Cyanogenmod 11 but It failed. Then I tryed to put binary in the phone and it failed too. So It is im bootloop and when I try to flash something Odin says me error with md5 binary.

SO WHAT CAN I DO?

(Sorry for english)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] royalasif:
hey have you unlocked Bootloader? if not than do it otherwise it wont work. if you have it unlocked visit this link that i found on youtube .. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6so68uoqI_Y. i owned mini 2 long time ago had done lots of custom roms etc.. try it out and let me know i will try to help you as much as i can

make you have all the drivers installed properly before doing anything in odin.

peace

I've solved the problem. I just flashed stock ROM using Odin and It boots. Many many thanks for help.

The problem is that when I flash CWM when I try to reboot after flash It takes bootloop and I have to flash the stock ROM again

[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] henderjr:
Hi,

Sprint Note 5 here. Basically I'm just trying to get my phone to be unrooted to pass SafetyNet (Android Pay, Pokemon Go, and others) but have some system modications (adaway and removed boot sounds mainly).

What I did do is flash stock odin firmware, then twrp, supersu, and make my changes. Then if I just unroot with supersu it still fails SafetyNet. If I unroot and tell SuperSU to restore boot.img then I get a bootloop. Probably due to TWRP still being there and not stock Recovery? So I thought maybe from there I can just flash boot and recovery via odin but that didn't seem to work either. Is it possible to take the stock firmware and flash whatever I need except system? Or not possible to alter system and go back to stock boot/recovery?

Edit: I took stock firmware, extracted it, removed system.img, and repacked it up (sboot.bin, modem.bin, recovery.img, cm.bin, boot.img, cache.img) and flashed it . It works but then brings me to some "system update" screen and then stock recovery with a verity failed error. Reboot to device just bootloops. :( Maybe I need to just remove more than just system?
[Galaxy S6 Active] aj5865:
Hello!

I've been trying in vein to regionally unlock my Galaxy Samsung S6 Active (SM-G890A). I've already unlocked the sim.

I've found an app called RegionLock Away, but when trying to use it, it says "Could not acquire root access! Are you rooted?" I then went to work on trying to root my phone, but having read this forum I've found that not to be possible yet. So my question is:

Can you regionally unlock a Samsung Galaxy S6 Active?

Many thanks.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Curtis1973:
boot loader not only locked but inaccessible via fastboot. all fastboot attempts to enter fastboot mode just reboots the device. some research in to qualcomm msm8909 means this turd has locked the boot loader down simply by crippling it to standard command set that fastboot uses. button combos to enter fastboot just reboot the device. It is highly unlikely this device will ever even see root must less an unlocked boot loader. avoid future alcatel devices as even older devices that had a working boot loader are now getting updates which kick it down. tcl/alcatel is a **** company for going this route.

I've looked around and it says something about updating the cwm to twrp. But anytime I try to flash a recovery it doesn't work. I've tried flashing recovery via rashr and flashify. None have worked. I do have root tho just no custom recovery(internal).

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] jbrooks58:
Hey guys I just currently pre-ordered the Pixel and am a little worried about the benchmarks that have been released. Do you guys think these are accurate? On some of the articles I have read the clock speeds they are claiming it is running are the speeds of the 820 not the 821. I mean the 6p scored higher on benchmarks than the pixel. How can these be right with the newest processor?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] hockeyman12c:
Look at the hands on videos. You won't be worried about performance after that. Looks like Google has done a lot of optimization. Benchmarks don't tell the whole story.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] doitright:
Well, seeing as the 821 is to an 820 the same as an 801 is to an 800... i.e., its the same damned chip, not really sure why you would expect there to be a dramatic performance change?

The 821 shows a peak cpu frequency spec a bit higher than 820, but this doesn't mean that everyone who uses it is obligated to use the highest frequency.

So here is a little bit of information about CPU manufacturing;

Every CPU core is a little bit different. Some of them are stable at lower voltages and higher frequencies than others. The CPU specification indicates a MINIMUM frequency that it MUST be stable at while operating within the designed power envelope. In other words, another CPU may be able to operate at the higher frequency, but it won't do so within the designed power envelope -- it will require OVER VOLTING.

The CPUs are separated according to their levels of stability. Call that "binning". One of these CPUs that bins poorly might be called a Snapdragon 820, and one that bins well will be called a Snapdragon 821. Within each model name, there are further levels of distinction that are used to set the baseline voltages being applied, in order to minimize the voltage that they are fed, such that you can reduce the power consumption as much as possible.

So you can think of an underclocked Snapdragon 821 as a SUPER DUPER AWESOME binned Snapdragon 820, operating at a lower voltage, and therefore consuming less power.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] thesebastian:
Don't worry about benchmarks! What it matters is the SoC you have, how well disipated is the SoC, and most important, how the software is done (kernel, drivers, android, binaries, etc).

There could be many devices with same SoC and better scores, but at the end, they lag more etc.

For instance, my previous Z5 Compact (with Sony Android, which is similar to AOSP) and a much better SoC than my current N5X, imo lags more than my current Nexus 5X with a worse SoC.

There's no way you can choose a device based on the benchmark, you must try both devices by yourself (ideally with your apps) and see the difference.

Giving another example...A Nexus 5 2013, is extremely fast in KK (with ART) and even in MM (but not in Lollipop).

However, it still throttles much more than a 5X because of the frequency, nm, and many other things.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] craig0r:
There actually are some differences in the 821 vs the 820. It's not the same chip exactly. A pretty great breakdown is here: https://www.gizmotimes.com/comparison/snapdragon-821-vs-snapdragon-820/16403

But essentially, slightly better power savings, improved camera performance, and a VR SDK.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] jbrooks58:
Thanks for all the replies guys. I was just confused as to why a chip the snapdragon says should have a 10% increase in performance over the 820 is benchmarking lower than most 820's.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] TCPDump:
Good info, thanks guys!
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] dcdevito:
We know nothing yet, time will tell obviously. The videos in the early previews look great, but we'll see under heavy load how these perform.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] doitright:
I'd like it if you could actually find something that claims that the 6p is anywhere near pixel in performance benchmarks. Reality is that it is more than 2x faster across the board.

As far as comparing it with 820, there are two things you can accomplish with the "1" -- more speed, or less power. They seem to be opting for the latter.

All the benchmarks I could find show it against either apple, or samsuck. Samsuck is well known for building TO the benchmarks (sometimes even *cheating*), which causes their scores to be unnaturally high, and comparing against apple is just stupid, since there is no baseline between them due to architectural differences and a complete lack of a common software stack. In other words, in a comparison between pixel and anything made by apple, you could have a smaller number, despite *actually* being considerably higher. The number doesn't equate across platforms.

---------- Post added at 08:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:09 PM ----------

That 10% is an interesting figure.

The SD820 has clock rates of 2.15 GHz on 2 cores, and 1.59 GHz on the other 2 cores.

Multiply by 1.1 (add 10%) and you get 2.365 and 1.749 GHz.

The SD821 has clock rates of 2.34 GHz on 2 cores and 2.19 GHz on the other 2 cores.

On those first two cores, that is marginally more the 10% higher clock rate. On the other 2 cores, it is considerably more than 10%. Note that a system's performance does NOT scale linearly with CPU frequency.

The other thing to note is that the pixel specs show it operating at 2x2.15+2x1.6 GHz, just like the SD820.

So what we can read from that, is that the pixel's CPUs are **underclocked**. That will allow it to use less battery power, and run cooler, while still running *really really fast*. If you want more, unlock and clock it up to 821 spec, I think you will find that this phone is an "overclocker's" dream, even if it isn't really overclocking.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] juliend:
That 10% figure comes directly from Qualcomm's publications on performance for the 821 vs 820.

Hey guys,

as i got the RN3P i flashed the global DEV rom from xiaomi and then i unlocked the bootloader with the official way. then i flashed the ALKA TWRP Recovery, made a backup of everything and then flashed supersu.zip.

now I am on Globa Beta 6.9.9 with Radon Kernel and everything works flawless.

I would like to get a newer version of the global dev rom .. but how can i upgrade with my setup?

is there an easier way then flashing the ZCX TWRP with incremental OTA Updates and start with a full wiped device?

thank you =)

On Lollipop you can turn it off changing lock screen option to dragging, then choose the first unlock effect (colours something like that). Then change again your lock screen method and use the one you like. In android 6.0 I think you can't chage it.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Kadin:
I've got 2 accounts set up on my Tilt, one's Gmail and the other is with Comcast. For whatever reason, when I check Comcast it takes forever to finally come back with a response. It sits at 'Connecting...' for maybe 5-10sec and then 'Logging on...' for a good 45-60secs which is too long. Gmail comes back in like 3secs. On my pc at home it goes extremely fast so I know it's not on Comcast's end.

This happens whether I connect via wifi or 3g... For battery purposes I have it set to manually check, plus I check more often than 2hrs. XpressMail hasn't impressed me but if there's another method that might work better, I'm all ears!

Any ideas?

Thanks!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] AllTheWay:
I had the same problem when I used to have comcast e-mail. When you set up your comcast e-mail did you let Windows set it up? I suggest manually inputing the incoming and outgoing mail server settings. I would suggest checking those as they relate to Comcast settings.
