[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiquidAlloy:
My phone has a locked boot loader and not rooted but I want to so here's my question.

If I do a backup of how my phone is now then unlock bootloader ( I know it wipes it clean) then run restore to get my phone back the way it was then root with custom recovery. I should be just like I am now with all my settings, apps, custom sounds etc and the bootloader will remain locked? and root should be good? I didn't want to root but to increase the 3.5mm volume output louder and to get the camera to record in stereo with higher bitrate audio, this seems to be the only way to achieve this.

Google restore will not relock you bootloader.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultyrunner:
It doesn't work the way you want ...

- First and most important, this guide tells you what you need to know and you should follow it to a tee - http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6p/general/guides-how-to-guides-beginners-t3206928

- Once you've unlocked your bootloader, unless you are returning it to complete stock (no root, no custom recovery, no custom ROMs), you'll keep your bootloader unlocked (and you never relock a bootloader with anything custom or your phone will have problems)

- You can't do a full backup (referred to as a Nandroid) before unlocking the BL because you need a custom recovery (TWRP) installed.

- The first thing you have to do to do anything you want, is unlock your bootloader (which does indeed completely wipe your phone). This is why people usually do it right away, or bite the bullet and wipe their device.

- The backup you do have in your situation is the one Google can do of your account (OK, but not comprehensive, as in your device state per a Nandroid)

- So ...

1. ensure you have Google backing up your phone to your account/drive, and also mount your sd card and drag your storage to your computer so you can move it back over after you wipe and keep all your photos, music, other stuff

2. ensure you follow the linked guide above for everything else
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiquidAlloy:
Ah damn haha. I was trying not to root but for all the things I want this phone to do it looks like I have no choice. Thanks for helping!! I will take the time to do this right with the link you provided. I am avoiding the Nexus root toolkit. Had issues with that in the past.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultyrunner:
NP, and it really isn't as daunting as you think. Unless you have a ton of home screens and dozens of widgets, it doesn't take long. If you use the Google Now launcher, Google can restore all your widgets and screens too. Just make sure any apps that allow you to back up settings, you do so before you drag your SD card contents over to your computer. Good luck.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiquidAlloy:
I use Nova launcher. I will just nuke this thing and start fresh. not always a bad thing to do. I really appreciate the help. I read that page thoroughly and will most likely do that whole process tomorrow when I got time.

There is tweaks to do in the media profiles xml to make all video recording resolutions to stereo and higher bitrate. Mixer paths xml tweak will increase the headphone output. This phone is so much lower through the 3.5mm than my S4 and pretty much any other phone I had. I can't believe that the Nexus 6P default recording is 96kb audio and mono when this phone has 3 mics. Absurd!! The settings i found on another section here increases it to 192kb and stereo. So this is my day tomorrow haha. Wish me luck :P
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultyrunner:
With headphone output and mic gain, ElementalX kernel and ARISE sound mod are a pretty good combo. Also you can back up all of your Nova settings too. Have fun.
[LG V20 Accessories] @rbiter:
Are there any products like this that OEM's use in ma ufacturing to coat the boards and inside of phone or like the, I think, liquipel, where you send your phone e off to be coated professionally. Only type of spray I've found is for leather and fabric really. Nano sprays and products like Scotchgard and vinylex. Anything for electronics commercially available? I've double coated the outside of phone with rain x but that was more for substituting oleophobic coatings. I dont need absolute waterproofing but would like enough protection if I had to use my phone in a moderate rain I could, if touchscreen allowed with the raindrops and all.
[LG V20 Accessories] Kief_haring:
Liquipel 360 coming soon...
[LG V20 Accessories] @rbiter:
For consumers in a spray bottle? Or is that some consumer grade chamber to gas the phone with nano coating like some companies do?
[LG V20 Accessories] Kief_haring:
I highly doubt it's going to be a consumer DIY. I'm thinking it's the chamber deal like it was before, send it in & they send it back to you... A DIY product would be amazing!!!
[LG V20 Accessories] @rbiter:
This phone can be opened up. But even if we couldn't get into the innards with the 20 screws, it would still be nice to tape the sim/sd card slot, camera and battery contacts and spray the whole phone. I've already double coated the outside of my phone with rain x but that just makes water run off easier and bead. I'd like a little more resistance. Not a big deal though. Just knowing the tech is out there I would like to take advantage. But do it myself.
[LG V20 Accessories] wtharp2:
Wouldn't coating the internal components change their heat dissipation capabilities?
[LG V20 Accessories] @rbiter:
With a nano coating I doubt it would be noticeable. Some of the water resistant phones like Motorola are nano coated and don't hear issues of those overheating.

Originally posted in XDA Assist. Was asked to register and come to this page and post my query here.

Along time ago I rerooted my S4, so that i could have unlimited data through the S4 Hotspot. Ihave to say it worked like a charm. I have just purchased a S7. ( OCT-2016)

I wish the S7 to perform the same function that the S4 did for all those years. I first heard that" S7 cant be done". But i knew in time guys like XDA would come up with a way to do it. I recently heard that it is now possible. So first step i took was throwing in some keywords in youtube. I found alot of video in this regards.

As of today: My goal is to have the S7 hotspot feature turned on with out sprint knowing ( charging/monitoring ) my hotspot is on.

What method is the safest route to do this? A great step by step video would be awesome. I followed the steps for the S4. So Im hoping the steps for the S7 will be similar.

The guy in this video says that in time there will be better methods.

( MAX LEE - How to Root Qualcomm Galaxy S7/S7 Edge! [AT&T/T-Mobile/Sprint/Verizon]

And will his method provide the Undetected hotspot usage?

I tried the foxfi app but it required me to pay for hotspot to be on.

Please point me in the right direction. Thanks for your time.

I simply just want my S7 to turn on hotspot have access to my unlimited data. And sprint not know the wiser.

No one?:(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] Cooljb:
No need to root you phone. You should try the unlocked firmware. Hotspot can be enabled without rooting. There's an app called Shortcut Master Lite that you can use to enable the hotspot on the unlocked firmware. The thread below has all the info on the unlocked firmware and Shortcut Master Lite.

http://xdaforums.com/sprint-galaxy-s7/help/bloat-free-firmware-930u-tried-t3428974

There are links to the unlocked firmware in the above thread, but they are older versions. I would recommend flashing a newer version of the unlocked firmware which you can download from here:

http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/97557/G930UUEU2APG9_G930UOYM2APG9_SPR/

This isn't the latest firmware, but you can just check for system update once you get it loaded and there will be another update that should download and install.

Good Luck.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] finnbogg:
thank you for that info. However. I attempted to root my phone. and now it doesnt recognize the sprint carrier or lte signal. it wont make calls or surf web. So now im stuck with a phone thats telling me it detects unathorized changes and to restart to redo changes. but when I do that. nothing changes. So now Im screwed. only thing i can think of is installing the original stock firmware. But Im going to assume thats an impossible task.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] finnbogg:
from what i can tell shortcut master lite doesnt work. I found the place to add the ,dun. but the option was greyed out. not clickable.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] Cooljb:
You have to be on the unrooted unlocked firmware for Shortcut Master Lite to work. You CAN'T root the unlocked firmware, as you discovered, and you don't need to if all you want is hotspot. Shortcut Master Lite does work on the stock unlocked firmware. You should be able to re-flash the full unlocked firmware and be good to go.

Name: shutdown.mp4

Size: 5,13 MB

Frames: 201

Duration: 6 s

Frame hate: 33,5 fps

Resolution: 1920 x 1080

I already tried these ways:

- Put the animation into (system < etc < customization < com < sonyercsson < shutdownanimation)

- Put the animation into (system < etc < customization < content < com < sonyercsson < shutdownanimation)

- Put the animation into (system < etc < customization < settings < com < sonyercsson < shutdownanimation)

- Put the frames into (system < media < video < shutdown)

- Put the animation into (system < media)

For all these methods i used these extensions for the animation: ".zip", ".gif", ".qmg", ".mp4", ".jpg".

Can someone explain how is the correct way? Thanks!

So I've had this issue with several calls. One going to t-mobile, another to Verizon and another to a land line. All three said that I have constant call loss. All they hear is static, and my voice goes in and out. I was in my truck for two of the calls and in a home Depot for another. I can hear the caller on the other end, but they can't hear me. Anyone else have this issue and maybe a fix? Thanks.

I currently use Resurrection Remix 5.7.4 as of now.Its stable enough to be used as daily driver,only flaw is the vedio recording but it works fine when used via footej camera.Rest everything is great.RR is actually based on Cynogenmod only ,plus some more customisations and features like split screen multitasking etc.I also used CM13 for about a fortnight,its also pretty stable.YOu can use either of it!

Yes they do...both CM and RR have a feature called "protected apps"...it locks any app ,and you can unlock them with fingerprint.Also if you use xposed,you can try "maxlock" which is a great module and provides applock functionality with fingerprint support(i myself have tried this module).

hi there,

when you write CM13, which one do you mean? a link would be very useful

thank you in advance
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] jimger:
Thanks... then for now no real gain over cyanogenmod (Assuming that is less stable than miui based roms) :(
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] NPriyo:
Miui has bugs and problems. Currently, I'd recommend custom ROMs to only those who have problems using Miui (like me). And ported ROMs are not that bad - only VoLTE support issue, video recording problem and a little less battery backup. Everything else is fine and smoother.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] jimger:
For me significant reasons to replace a rom would be stability,battery life and I don't like miui look. But if I don't gain anything in battery life I just freeze most xiaomi crap including mi account and battery life management, install my normal greenify-titanium and other apps and stay at miui either developer or stable from miui-hellas. Only thing I really miss is the ability to run custom app from keys. If cyanogen could improve their battery life I think I would easily switch...

Yes u can, (Im not sure about Battery Saver but I think yes) there's many apps to remove (more tan 30 apps that i've removed on miui 8)
