[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] Saamy88:
I have a SM-930V(verizon) galaxy s7 and is running Tmobile(930T) firmware. Is there any tmobile sim-unlocked firmware that I can download? Or can I flash the 930U firmware and sim-unlock my phone? What are the implications on doing this? I want to keep samsung pay, wifi calling, and LTEvoice.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] bogdi1988:
You need to get a sim unlock code - there are a few websites you can purchase that from. It is not a firmware change, at least not on the S7.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] thowersome:
Correct me if I'm wrong but don't Verizon phones come GSM unlocked or is that only for outside of the country?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] micallan_17:
Verizon S7 comes unlocked: http://www.androidcentral.com/yes-verizon-galaxy-s7-and-s7-edge-are-sim-unlocked, Just Flash the latest SM-G930U Firmware available. as always at your own risk of course, plenty of guides on how to flash the U firmware to verizon s7 here at XDA.

My T-Mobile S7 came with a device unlock application... Ive never seen it before, so i tested it out by using the temporary unlock and it worked...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] micallan_17:
Try doing the Permanent unlock and see if it works
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] KillerClaw321:
It works. A tmobile rep confirmed that it is now unlocked.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] KillerClaw321:
If you do not have the apk for some reason... i grabbed it heres the apk:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] micallan_17:
mines is factory unlocked (SM-G930U) so am good to go :), congrats on unlocking it and you can now flash the SM-G930 U firmware on it and get rid of the TMO bloatware.

soo ive been crying since day one when i found out i couldnt play NOVA 3 on my newly bought shield, i thought about using a custom firmware but didnt want to lose functionality, i ended up adapting my 4tb hdd as internal memory so once i did that for me there was no goong back lol, so ive been trying to find a way to map controls and thought of everything and nothing seemed to work. sixaxis controller app didnt work when i tried a few times a year back but there has since been an update and now i can map the touch controls for nova and play perfectly so im guessing that opens up a lot more apps and games that require touch we couldnt use before but prob can now. For me this is the best early christmas present i could have asked for. Thought id let you lot know just in case ya didnt.

[Moto X General] Josephdbrewer25:
Ok guys if you're like me and have unlocked your bootloader and installed a custom ROM coming from KitKat or below, you probably noticed no speakerphone capabilities.

Here's how to work around that:

First have adb and fastboot set up along with the Motorola drivers.

Here's what I did:

Download and extract bootloader.zip from the mega download link.

Put the phone in fastboot

Open command prompt/terminal

CD /adb (or whatever adb and fastboot are located)

fastboot flash partition gpt.bin

Let it run then:

fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img

Let that run. And voila, speakerphone shall work.

Note: this may work on other variants who have installed a custom ROM coming from KitKat, just update gpt/motoboot/modem/fsg for your variant.

Attached are for the xt1050, they are from the xt1060 variant. Will not brick your phone. I'm speaking from personal experience.

For gpt and motoboot=> https://mega.nz/#!xAYSEDaB!vQ2jIUlQ17Rx1OyWK5VpFY--VfWxPuyDcl9Tj-j4LRk

For vzw modem=> https://mega.nz/#!0URBnJwK!bLYJI87ivbT5a8RLBxyQQWNEnvrXrVPavuPd3-hmWEA

The above modem will allow you to use a Verizon sim card that's already active if your current modem won't allow it as mine didn't but my other Moto x did, (vz will NOT activate the xt1050 x, I was told by a vzw CSR that it can be put on a postpaid account, I'm unsure)

Also if you use GSM on this phone, you would be getting Hspa data, I was told by a member on here(XDA) that I could flash the non-hlos.bin and fsg.mbn from either the xt1058 or xt1053 to get LTE on AT&T towers. I have not been able to do so successfully, sticks on H+. If anyone knows how, please let me know.

Is there a version of APK Easy Tool for Mac OS? Thanks!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Praetoriani:
backup of apps fails despite android: allowBackup="true"

I tried to backup some apps using following ADB-Command:

adb backup -apk -obb -noshared apk.package.name -f C:\Destination\Folder\package_backup.ab

But it didn't work for all my apps.

I started searching for an explanation and a solution for my Problem. Then I found your guide and followed the instructions.

But when I decompiled some of these apps I wasn't able to create a backup, I recognized that some of them had the flag android:allowBackup="true"

Here are a few of these apps (just to name a few):

» app.WTInfoTech.WorldAroundMeLite.apk

» appplus.mobi.lockdownpro.apk

» cn.wps.moffice_eng.apk

» color.dev.com.pink

In reality, there are far more apps than just four.

There are certainly around 40-50 apps that can not be backed up using ADB (even though they have the appropriate flag in the AndroidManifest.xml)

I am using the latest Plattform Tools for Windows (r28.0.1) downloaded from here

Can someone explain to me, why I cannot backup these apps? Even if they have the android:allowBackup="true" flag?

Am I doing something wrong? Or is there some kind of a magic trick that I don't know?

I would be very happy if someone could help me with this problem.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dazoe:
I've been having this problem as well. I noticed that not all apps are backed up using the all flag etc.

I think it boils down to if the app uses a backup agent. Looking at the logcat when attempting to backup ConnectBot using the command adb -apk -obb -f backup.ab org.connectbot It said connect bot is Key-Value and just silently skips it. When using the command adb -apk -obb -keyvalue -f backup.ab org.connectbot It will actually backup some data, but it will not backup the apk.

I don't really have a solution just wanted to share some observations.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Praetoriani:
@dazoe

THX for sharing your knowledge :good:

I'm going to check my logcat as well for these apps adb does not back up :)

I can give you a short guide on how to extract/backup an apk of a specific package:

1) If you don't know the package-name, you can create a list of all installed packages (sorted in alphabetical prder without app names)

adb shell pm list packages -f | sed -e 's/.*=//' | sort

2) Now look for the desired app you want to extract/backup the apk from. Then run following command:

adb shell pm path com.example.someapp

You will get an output which will look something like the following:

package:/data/app/com.example.someapp-1/base.apk

3) With this information you can simply perform a pull-command like the following:

adb pull -a -p /data/app/com.example.someapp-1/base.apk C\LOCAL\PATH\TO\YOUR\BACKUP\com.example.someapp-1/base.apk

Hope that I could help you with this little guide

;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] chris_v:
I patched the apk I want to backup, but before I uninstall the original and install the patched, are there any other methods that will allow me to restore my original appdata? Since uninstalling the original will remove that appdata. I'm not rooted.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] wsuh:
so whats the point if you have to uninstall the app and reinstall using the new apk? itll wipe the data of the app you're trying to back up

is there any way to do this without wiping?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] scandiun:
You can only reinstall app with same signature, if there is some data left. If you uninstall totally, you can install with different signature (but you lose data). If you need to get the data you can try to root without formatting.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] scandiun:
I have no idea about that phone. Most of times, it's now possible unless there is a bug which allows to gain root access while running android. There are 4 ways that you can try:

Try some app which allows to root the phone temporarily while it's running (without the need for any bootloader unlock). For the LG G2 there was AutoRec and Towelroot.

Request HTC a special update or feature for your device (for your specific IMEI/serial number) so they allow you to update or unlock bootloader without data format.

Contact the app developer and request an update for you with android:allowBackup enabled. If the developer is still alive and is willing to do so, because you just need his signing key. Sometimes it's done by Google servers instead of the developer itself.

Wait for your device to oficially update to android 11, since that version will ignore that flag when syncing all phone data to a new phone. There you could sync to a rooted phone with LineageOS and recover the data. Request HTC to update that device

Android 11 forces apps to support local backups but not cloud backups
